Day 293 2 John 1:1-13

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Joy, For we do not seek happiness of this world! I Thank the Lord for Anticipation, For we as your children, look to the day when we shed these imperfect bodies! I Thank the Lord for Hope, For we put all of our Faith in you Lord!

 

It is Written, “The elder, To the lady chosen by God and to her children, whom I love in the truth–and not I only, but also all who know the truth– because of the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever: Grace, mercy and peace from God the Father and from Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son, will be with us in truth and love. It has given me great joy to find some of your children walking in the truth, just as the Father commanded us. And now, dear lady, I am not writing you a new command but one we have had from the beginning. I ask that we love one another. And this is love: that we walk in obedience to his commands. As you have heard from the beginning, his command is that you walk in love. I say this because many deceivers, who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh, have gone out into the world. Any such person is the deceiver and the antichrist. Watch out that you do not lose what we have worked for, but that you may be rewarded fully. Anyone who runs ahead and does not continue in the teaching of Christ does not have God; whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son. f anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them. Anyone who welcomes them shares in their wicked work. I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete. The children of your sister, who is chosen by God, send their greetings.” 2 John 1:1-13

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you give us Strength to stand upon your Love and not given into false teaching in Jesus Name, Amen!

 

Day 292 Revelations 10:1-11

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Prophesy, For Few will see the scroll and even fewer be called to consume it! I Thank the Lord for Vision, For those who see what is not seen are blessed by the Lord our God! I Thank the Lord for Favor, For there is a place that we are all called to meet the Lord, but few shall answer!

 

It is Written, “Then I saw another mighty angel coming down from heaven. He was robed in a cloud, with a rainbow above his head; his face was like the sun, and his legs were like fiery pillars. He was holding a little scroll, which lay open in his hand. He planted his right foot on the sea and his left foot on the land, and he gave a loud shout like the roar of a lion. When he shouted, the voices of the seven thunders spoke. And when the seven thunders spoke, I was about to write; but I heard a voice from heaven say, “Seal up what the seven thunders have said and do not write it down.” Then the angel I had seen standing on the sea and on the land raised his right hand to heaven. And he swore by him who lives for ever and ever, who created the heavens and all that is in them, the earth and all that is in it, and the sea and all that is in it, and said, “There will be no more delay! But in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet, the mystery of God will be accomplished, just as he announced to his servants the prophets.” Then the voice that I had heard from heaven spoke to me once more: “Go, take the scroll that lies open in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.” So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me, “Take it and eat it. It will turn your stomach sour, but ‘in your mouth it will be as sweet as honey.'” I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it. It tasted as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach turned sour. Then I was told, “You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages and kings.” Revelations 10:1-11

 

Prayer: I Pray Father as you Have started this Work inside your Children, Let it be by your Word that the fullness of the Blessing of this work be seen by the world in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 291 John 2:12-25

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Scripture, For God has given us the Word as a Confirmation of His Love! I Thank the Lord for Testimony, For Jesus came to show us who we are all called to be! I Thank the Lord for Miracles, For God is not dead, He is surely Alive!

 

It is Written, “After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days. When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. In the temple courts he found people selling cattle, sheep and doves, and others sitting at tables exchanging money. So he made a whip out of cords, and drove all from the temple courts, both sheep and cattle; he scattered the coins of the money changers and overturned their tables. To those who sold doves he said, “Get these out of here! Stop turning my Father’s house into a market!” His disciples remembered that it is written: “Zeal for your house will consume me.” The Jews then responded to him, “What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?” Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.” They replied, “It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and you are going to raise it in three days?” But the temple he had spoken of was his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken. Now while he was in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.” John 2:12-25

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that we as your Children take hold of the Zeal for your house in Jesus Name, Amen!

 

 

Day 289 1 Corinthians 1:10-19

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Preparation, For He has given us time to Understand the act of Faithfulness! I Thank the Lord for Unity, For the unity in Christ is greater than any of this world! I Thank the Lord for Renewing Blessings, For we deserve nothing to a God who gave everything!

 

It is Written, “I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you. What I mean is this: One of you says, “I follow Paul”; another, “I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas”; still another, “I follow Christ.” Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul? I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius, so no one can say that you were baptized in my name. (Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don’t remember if I baptized anyone else.) For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel–not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” 1 Corinthians 1:10-19

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that we are servants become more mature in our Faith and continue to strive to run after your glory in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 288 1 Corinthians 1:18-31

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Boasting, For we are called to take pride in the things of God! I Thank the Lord for The Foolishness of the Gospel, For it is the Wisdom that confounds the Wise of this World! I Thank the Lord for Power, For there is a knowledge of the Lord that few have ever seen!

 

It is Written, “For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise; the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.” Where is the wise person? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things–and the things that are not–to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God–that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption. Therefore, as it is written: “Let the one who boasts boast in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:18-31

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that every Child of God seek the Strength and Wisdom that comes from praying in the Spirit in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 287 Mark 4:1-9

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Hearing, For by the Spirit shall we understand what is spoken! I Thank the Lord for Sight, For what is in the world is only a glance of what is going on! I Thank the Lord for Trust, For we lean not to our own understanding, but that of The Lord our God!

 

It is Written, “Again Jesus began to teach by the lake. The crowd that gathered around him was so large that he got into a boat and sat in it out on the lake, while all the people were along the shore at the water’s edge. He taught them many things by parables, and in his teaching said: “Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed. As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds came and ate it up. Some fell on rocky places, where it did not have much soil. It sprang up quickly, because the soil was shallow. But when the sun came up, the plants were scorched, and they withered because they had no root. Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants, so that they did not bear grain. Still other seed fell on good soil. It came up, grew and produced a crop, some multiplying thirty, some sixty, some a hundred times.” Then Jesus said, “Whoever has ears to hear, let them hear.” Mark 4:1-9

 

Prayers: I Pray Lord that you strengthen our Spirit to See what is unseen and Hear what is not spoken in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 286 2 Timothy 2:1-13

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Insight, For we should all pray that the Lord bless us with Revelation! I Thank the Lord for Reflections, For we are called to set aside time in our day to Meditate on the things of the Lord! I Thank the Lord for Spirit and Truth, For True Worshipers are being birthed for the Army of the Lord!

 

It is Written, “You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules. The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops. Reflect on what I am saying, for the Lord will give you insight into all this. Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel, for which I am suffering even to the point of being chained like a criminal. But God’s word is not chained. Therefore I endure everything for the sake of the elect, that they too may obtain the salvation that is in Christ Jesus, with eternal glory. Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with him, we will also live with him; if we endure, we will also reign with him. If we disown him, he will also disown us; if we are faithless, he remains faithful, for he cannot disown himself.” 2 Timothy 2:1-13

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that we who are your Servants and Soldiers in this fight of Salvation to the World always carry with us the Reminder of living for you and not the world in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 284 Matthew 20:20-28

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for the Heart of a Servant, For We are called to serve others and not to be served! I Thank the Lord for Selflessness, For we are called to put others before us in His Name! I Thank the Lord for understanding, For we have been called to go low, so the Lord may be lifted on high!

 

It is Written, “Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came to Jesus with her sons and, kneeling down, asked a favor of him. “What is it you want?” he asked. She said, “Grant that one of these two sons of mine may sit at your right and the other at your left in your kingdom.” “You don’t know what you are asking,” Jesus said to them. “Can you drink the cup I am going to drink?” “We can,” they answered. Jesus said to them, “You will indeed drink from my cup, but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared by my Father.” When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers. Jesus called them together and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be first must be your slave– just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Matthew 20:20-28

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you give your Children Hearts of a Servant, So that we may truly bring your Kingdom Here to Earth in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 283 Acts 18:9-16

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Dreams, For He has many ways in which He can Speak to Us! I Thank the Lord for Sound Judgment, For many lack the Spiritual blessing of Discernment! I Thank the Lord for Obedience, For in the Face of a crisis, we shall keep ourselves on the straight path!

 

It is Written, “One night the Lord spoke to Paul in a vision: “Do not be afraid; keep on speaking, do not be silent. For I am with you, and no one is going to attack and harm you, because I have many people in this city.” So Paul stayed in Corinth for a year and a half, teaching them the word of God. While Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews of Corinth made a united attack on Paul and brought him to the place of judgment. “This man,” they charged, “is persuading the people to worship God in ways contrary to the law.” Just as Paul was about to speak, Gallio said to them, “If you Jews were making a complaint about some misdemeanor or serious crime, it would be reasonable for me to listen to you. But since it involves questions about words and names and your own law–settle the matter yourselves. I will not be a judge of such things.” So he drove them off.” Acts 18:9-16

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Fill us with Strength by your Spirit and Send your Children dreams that will comfort us in Difficult times in Jesus Name, Amen!

 

Day 282 2 Corinthians 5:1-10

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Treasure, For our life is an eternal gift that shall be everlasting with the Father! I Thank the Lord for Waiting, For God see’s those eager to complete their mission before the day of reckoning! I Thank the Lord for Desire, For we as God’s Children burn with fire within our bones!

 

It is Written, “For we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. Meanwhile we groan, longing to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, because when we are clothed, we will not be found naked. For while we are in this tent, we groan and are burdened, because we do not wish to be unclothed but to be clothed instead with our heavenly dwelling, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. Now the one who has fashioned us for this very purpose is God, who has given us the Spirit as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come. Therefore we are always confident and know that as long as we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord. For we live by faith, not by sight. We are confident, I say, and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord. So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” 2 Corinthians 5:1-10

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Strengthen your peoples Vision on Earth, so when the Day of Glory Comes, we can be welcomed into your Kingdom as Good and Faithful Servants in Jesus Name, Amen!
