Day 218 James 3:13-17

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Wisdom, For by it’s fruits it shall be shown known! I Thank the Lord for Mercy, For everyman shall forgive, for they have been forgiven! I Thank the Lord for Encouragement, For all have been through the valley low and seek to bring up those who are down!

 

It is Written, “Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.” James 3:13-17

 

Prayer: I Pray Dear Heavenly Father that you Bring forth Heavenly Wisdom to your Children in this hour so we may be blessing to the people around us in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Training, Daily we arise to strengthen our knowledge of His Word! I Thank the Lord for Goals, For we are not content with just living in this World! I Thank the Lord for New Life, For daily we are given a chance to step into our New Man!

 

It is Written, “We always thank God for all of you and continually mention you in our prayers. We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you, because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake. You became imitators of us and of the Lord, for you welcomed the message in the midst of severe suffering with the joy given by the Holy Spirit. And so you became a model to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. The Lord’s message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia–your faith in God has become known everywhere. Therefore we do not need to say anything about it, for they themselves report what kind of reception you gave us. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead–Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.” 1 Thessalonians 1:2-10

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that we as your Children stop looking at things thrown in the sea of forgiveness and start looking at the opportunities given to us in the present in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Covering, By His Blood He has set his seal upon His people! I Thank the Lord for Liberty, For Freedom comes from the Spirit of the Lord! I Thank the Lord for Joy, for His has overcame darkness for us to live in the light!

It is Written, “Now this is our boast: Our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world, and especially in our relations with you, with integrity and godly sincerity. We have done so, relying not on worldly wisdom but on God’s grace. For we do not write you anything you cannot read or understand. And I hope that, as you have understood us in part, you will come to understand fully that you can boast of us just as we will boast of you in the day of the Lord Jesus. Because I was confident of this, I wanted to visit you first so that you might benefit twice. I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia and to come back to you from Macedonia, and then to have you send me on my way to Judea. Was I fickle when I intended to do this? Or do I make my plans in a worldly manner so that in the same breath I say both “Yes, yes” and “No, no”? But as surely as God is faithful, our message to you is not “Yes” and “No.” For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us–by me and Silas and Timothy–was not “Yes” and “No,” but in him it has always been “Yes.” For no matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ. And so through him the “Amen” is spoken by us to the glory of God. Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ. He anointed us, set his seal of ownership on us, and put his Spirit in our hearts as a deposit, guaranteeing what is to come.” 2 Corinthians 1:12-22

Prayer: Dear Abba Father, I Pray that your Children focus on making their yes mean yes and their No’s mean No in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for weakness, for in it, we find our strength in the Lord! I Thank the Lord for imperfection, for in all things, His Grace is sufficient! I Thank the Lord for His Blood, For just like His Love, it cover a multitude of Sins!

It is Written, “Dear friends, this is now my second letter to you. I have written both of them as reminders to stimulate you to wholesome thinking. I want you to recall the words spoken in the past by the holy prophets and the command given by our Lord and Savior through your apostles. Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires. They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.” But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly. But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything done in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.” 2 Peter 3:1-13

Prayer: I Pray Father that we not keep our minds set on today, but prepare for the coming of your kingdom daily in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 213 Hebrews 12:18-29

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Humbleness, For in our Pride we forget who gives and takes away! I Thank the Lord for Prayer, For our greatest gift is one often overlooked! I Thank the Lord for Drive, For we are given little, but from a mustard seed comes great things!

It is Written, “You have not come to a mountain that can be touched and that is burning with fire; to darkness, gloom and storm; to a trumpet blast or to such a voice speaking words that those who heard it begged that no further word be spoken to them, because they could not bear what was commanded: “If even an animal touches the mountain, it must be stoned to death.” The sight was so terrifying that Moses said, “I am trembling with fear.” But you have come to Mount Zion, to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem. You have come to thousands upon thousands of angels in joyful assembly, to the church of the firstborn, whose names are written in heaven. You have come to God, the Judge of all, to the spirits of the righteous made perfect, to Jesus the mediator of a new covenant, and to the sprinkled blood that speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. See to it that you do not refuse him who speaks. If they did not escape when they refused him who warned them on earth, how much less will we, if we turn away from him who warns us from heaven? At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, “Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken–that is, created things–so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:18-29

Prayer: I Pray Father that you instill a greater prayer life in your children so that they may tap into the Spiritual Natural force that is available to them in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord For Compassion, For only He can move the Heart that has been so Jaded! I Thank the Lord for Renewal, Daily we seek to be cleansed by the sin of the Flesh! I Thank the Lord for peace, For I know my rest comes from the Spirit of the Lord!

 

It is Written, “Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. 14 And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. 15 Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful. 16 Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit, singing to God with gratitude in your hearts. 17 And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Colossians 3:12-17

 

Prayers: I Pray Today Lord that you come and give the Spirit of Peace and Rest to your Children in need and that your Love be shown in a Divine way in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 211 James 3:1-12

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Courage, For in the Face of great odds, Faith shall Prevail! I Thank the Lord for Self Confidence, For we are all called to follow in the Image of our Creator! I Thank the Lord for Wisdom, For our intellect alone can not lead us to the truth of the Lord!

It is Written, “Not many of you should become teachers, my fellow believers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly. We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check. When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go. Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell. All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison. With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.” James 3:1-12

Prayer: I pray Father that you Anoint our tongues to speak life over death and Blessings over curses in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 209 John 5:31-47

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Destiny, even through misery and pain, God has a Plan! I Thank the Lord for Authority, For we inherited the Spirit of God through Jesus’ Sacrifice! I Thank the Lord for Divine Love, For the Strength of Forgiveness is greater Than Sin!

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: I Pray Father that your Children come to the understanding that you are the fulfillment of Life everlasting beyond this existent in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Covering, For God so Loved Man that of Him came Woman! I Thank the Lord for Submission, For in this act is not a sign of Weakness, but Honor! I Thank the Lord for Order, For God is the head of Christ as Man is the Head of Woman!

 

It is Written, “ Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ. I praise you for remembering me in everything and for holding to the traditions just as I passed them on to you. But I want you to realize that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is man, and the head of Christ is God. Every man who prays or prophesies with his head covered dishonors his head. But every woman who prays or prophesies with her head uncovered dishonors her head–it is the same as having her head shaved. For if a woman does not cover her head, she might as well have her hair cut off; but if it is a disgrace for a woman to have her hair cut off or her head shaved, then she should cover her head. A man ought not to cover his head, since he is the image and glory of God; but woman is the glory of man. For man did not come from woman, but woman from man; neither was man created for woman, but woman for man.” 1 Corinthians 11:1-9

 

Prayer: I Pray Abba Father that this Generation understands that Godly Order supersedes the Order we see in This world. Father I pray that you give your Children divine insight in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 206 Romans 6:1-10

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Provision, For when we have nothing, He is our everything! I Thank the Lord for Assurance, For Our Hope is forever in Jesus! I Thank the Lord for Grace, For even our Hearts desires are corrupted in the eyes of the Lord!

 

It is Written, “What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin– because anyone who has died has been set free from sin. Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him. For we know that since Christ was raised from the dead, he cannot die again; death no longer has mastery over him. The death he died, he died to sin once for all; but the life he lives, he lives to God.” Romans 6:1-10

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you increase your Love and Grace over your Children through these times of Trail in Jesus Name, Amen!
