Day 494 Acts 2:1-11

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for The Holy Baptism, For on that Day, the Promise The Father spoke of was fulfilled. I Thank the Lord for the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and pray for the increase of the Father’s Spirit to pour out upon these coming generations!

It is Written, “When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them. Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans? Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs–we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” Acts 2:1-11

Prayer: Father, I Pray Lord that Jews and Gentiles alike seek the Baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire which leads them to Declare your Wonders in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 492 Hebrews 13:1-10

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Consistency, for in this world of Confusion, we find clarity within the Spirit of the Lord! I Thank the Lord for being the same today, yesterday and tomorrow. For we are truly lost with out the High Tower of the Lord.

It is Written, “Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it. Continue to remember those in prison as if you were together with them in prison, and those who are mistreated as if you yourselves were suffering. Marriage should be honored by all, and the marriage bed kept pure, for God will judge the adulterer and all the sexually immoral. Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” So we say with confidence, “The Lord is my helper; I will not be afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?” Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Do not be carried away by all kinds of strange teachings. It is good for our hearts to be strengthened by grace, not by eating ceremonial foods, which is of no benefit to those who do so. We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.” Hebrews 13:1-10

Prayer: Father, I Pray for the Love and Morality that was taught by Christ continue to be taught and imitated by His Followers. For we Pray these things to the Lord in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 489 Luke 1:26-38

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Angels, For we have mighty messengers of the Lord to call upon! I Thank you Father that we have be given Authority from on high to call upon Angels to work on your Behalf. For you have given many gifts and each of them are a blessing!

It is Written, “In the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.” Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.” “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?” The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. For no word from God will ever fail.” 38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.” Luke 1:36-38

Prayer: Father, I Pray Lord that you Continue to have Angels working in our Lives to help guide and protect your children in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 488 John 5:31-47

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Testimony, For the Lord came not by His own testimony, but that of His Father. I Thank the Lord that we as the Children of God come and His behalf in all things. I Thank the Lord we are Blessed on His account and who we were called to be before birth!

It is Written, “”If I testify about myself, my testimony is not true. There is another who testifies in my favor, and I know that his testimony about me is true. “You have sent to John and he has testified to the truth. Not that I accept human testimony; but I mention it that you may be saved. John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose for a time to enjoy his light. “I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to finish–the very works that I am doing–testify that the Father has sent me. And the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me. You have never heard his voice nor seen his form, nor does his word dwell in you, for you do not believe the one he sent. You study the Scriptures diligently because you think that in them you have eternal life. These are the very Scriptures that testify about me, yet you refuse to come to me to have life. “I do not accept glory from human beings, but I know you. I know that you do not have the love of God in your hearts. I have come in my Father’s name, and you do not accept me; but if someone else comes in his own name, you will accept him. How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God? “But do not think I will accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom your hopes are set. If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me. But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?” John 5:31-47

Prayer: Father, I Pray for those who Call Moses there Father and Hope and have not yet made Jesus their Lord and Savior. For Hope has came into the World for all Men through Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 486 Mark 2:1-12

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Determination, For there is no obstacle that can keep us from the healing power of the Lord. I Thank the Lord for faith that is able to overcome the Impossible! By His Love, we are able to do all things!

It is Written, “A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum, the people heard that he had come home. They gathered in such large numbers that there was no room left, not even outside the door, and he preached the word to them. Some men came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried by four of them. Since they could not get him to Jesus because of the crowd, they made an opening in the roof above Jesus by digging through it and then lowered the mat the man was lying on. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “Son, your sins are forgiven.” Now some teachers of the law were sitting there, thinking to themselves, “Why does this fellow talk like that? He’s blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God alone?” Immediately Jesus knew in his spirit that this was what they were thinking in their hearts, and he said to them, “Why are you thinking these things? Which is easier: to say to this paralyzed man, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up, take your mat and walk’? But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!” Mark 2:1-12

Prayer: Father, I Pray that we as your Children continue to seek forgiveness that brings healing, even in the face of ridicule in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 485 Matthew 18:21-35

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Forgiveness, For we all have been given a chance to seek repentance for debts that we can not repay. I Thank the Lord for making a way for us to be redeemed from our wick ways. For no man is perfect and we all fall short of the Glory of the Lord!

It is Written, “Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?” Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand bags of gold was brought to him. Since he was not able to pay, the master ordered that he and his wife and his children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. “At this the servant fell on his knees before him. ‘Be patient with me,’ he begged, ‘and I will pay back everything.’ The servant’s master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. “But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred silver coins. He grabbed him and began to choke him. ‘Pay back what you owe me!’ he demanded. “His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will pay it back.’ “But he refused. Instead, he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. When the other servants saw what had happened, they were outraged and went and told their master everything that had happened. “Then the master called the servant in. ‘You wicked servant,’ he said, ‘I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. Shouldn’t you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you?’ In anger his master handed him over to the jailers to be tortured, until he should pay back all he owed. “This is how my heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother or sister from your heart.” Matthew 18:21-35

Prayer: Father, I Pray that all soul ties of unforgiveness be Broken over your People in this Hour in Jesus Name! For we can not hold unto debts that are less than what you have repaid for us in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 484 Luke 15:1-7

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Change, For we have been given life to serve He who has given all! I Thank you Lord that we are not bound to who we used to be in this world, but have the opportunity to change. I Thank you Father that in all your doing, you would leave the 99, to find the one lost sheep!

It is Written, “Now the tax collectors and sinners were all gathering around to hear Jesus. But the Pharisees and the teachers of the law muttered, “This man welcomes sinners and eats with them.” Then Jesus told them this parable: “Suppose one of you has a hundred sheep and loses one of them. Doesn’t he leave the ninety-nine in the open country and go after the lost sheep until he finds it? And when he finds it, he joyfully puts it on his shoulders and goes home. Then he calls his friends and neighbors together and says, ‘Rejoice with me; I have found my lost sheep.’ I tell you that in the same way there will be more rejoicing in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who do not need to repent.” Luke 15:1-7

Prayer: Father, Who my heart is always for your Children, but by your standard, may our purpose in this life be seeking those Sheep who are lost! For we do this all in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 483 Luke 24:36-49

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Promise, For we all know Jesus died for our sins, but he was not to leave us alone! For the Promise of the other he would send was fulfilled and continues to be fulfilled in this day and time! I thank the Lord he has given us the Holy Spirit through the laying on of Hands!

It is Written, “While they were still talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. And while they still did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence. He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. He told them, “This is what is written: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things. I am going to send you what my Father has promised; but stay in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.” Luke 24:36-49

Prayer: Father, I pray that your Children to go deeper in your presence and seek out the Baptism that came through the death of Christ! We Pray these things in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 480 Hebrews 11:1-13

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Faith, For it is by faith that we believe all things came into existence through Christ Jesus. I Thank the Lord that we using the same Faith can create what is from what is not! For this knowledge shall always baffle the wisdom of this world!

It is Written, “Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God’s command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. By faith Abel brought God a better offering than Cain did. By faith he was commended as righteous, when God spoke well of his offerings. And by faith Abel still speaks, even though he is dead. By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. By faith Noah, when warned about things not yet seen, in holy fear built an ark to save his family. By his faith he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness that is in keeping with faith. By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God. And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise. And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore. All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth.” Hebrew 11:1-13

Prayer: Father, I Pray that we are your People seek to use the power of Faith to move the Lost to see the beauty of Christ which leads to the understanding of salvation in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 479 Hebrews 10:1-10

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for the One True Sacrifice in Jesus, For all other offerings fail to be received by the Father! I Thank the Lord that our High Priest and intercessory sits at the right hand of God and has given us the opportunity to make it into the Kingdom of Heaven!

It is Written, “The law is only a shadow of the good things that are coming–not the realities themselves. For this reason it can never, by the same sacrifices repeated endlessly year after year, make perfect those who draw near to worship. Otherwise, would they not have stopped being offered? For the worshipers would have been cleansed once for all, and would no longer have felt guilty for their sins. But those sacrifices are an annual reminder of sins. It is impossible for the blood of bulls and goats to take away sins. Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: “Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. Then I said, ‘Here I am–it is written about me in the scroll– I have come to do your will, my God.’ ” First he said, “Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them”–though they were offered in accordance with the law. Then he said, “Here I am, I have come to do your will.” He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.” Hebrews 10:1-10

Prayer: Father, I pray you build up those who you have called, so when times comes, we can confidently say, “ Here I am Lord!” for I pray these things in Jesus Name, Amen!
