Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord My God that in my time of Need, I can call upon His Name! I Thank The Lord My God That His forgiveness is greater than my understanding of sin! I Thank The Lord My God that I have breath to Breathe and offer thanksgiving unto Him!

 

It is written, “Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires.  The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies because of his Spirit who lives in you.” Romans 8:5-11

 

Prayer: Father, we are imperfect in our current human condition, I pray for the return of the Son and for this night of darkness to end. Come Lord Jesus, Come!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord My God that Childish Ways are not forever! I Thank the Lord My God that He Continually causes his children to grow in knowledge! I Thank the Lord My God, for every letter of His Word serves its own purpose!

 

It is written, “Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand. And we boast in the hope of the glory of God. Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:1-8

 

Prayer:  I prayer that those who are called unrighteous come forth for Forgiveness and receive a double potion of your Grace in Jesus Name!

“Against All Hope”

“Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead – since he was about a hundred years old – and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.” (Romans 4:18-21)
“Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.” When everything around him seemed hopeless, Abraham stood fast on God’s promise to him. I know there are many of us who are in this kind of situation. We have envisioned or received the word of the Lord that tells us we are destine to do something great, but or current circumstances dictate differently.  “Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead – since he was about a hundred years old – and that Sarah’s womb was also dead.” Abraham was hundred years old and knew he wasn’t getting any younger and to add insult to injury, his wife Sarah was about the same age as well. Long pass child bearing years by all standards, Abraham believed in the Word of the Lord. In this life, we face many trails. I know for many of us, we are facing a situation where it seems impossible for God to work things out, but Glory be unto God who is worthy to be praised. God will make a way out of no way,  But it is by our Faith that we are judged.
“Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised.” Abraham did not waver in his Faith in the Lord. I know it is hard to praise him through the storm, but for those who are faithful, the promises that the Lord put into your life is waiting. Against all hope, we are called to have faith.

“You are Not your Flesh!”

“For what I do is not good that I want to do; no, it is evil that I do not want to do-this I keep on doing. Now, if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but the sin living in me that does it. So I find this law at work; when I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s Law, but I see another law at work in the members of my flesh…” (Romans 7:19-23)

.

“For what I do is not good that I want to do; no, it is evil that I do not want to do-this I keep on doing.” I would phrase this passage, “The Story of our Life.” The struggle to do what is right but finding yourself doing wrong. I have heard many people tell me of their struggles to Honor the Word of the Lord. To even open up their Bibles daily and to read just a verse or two, they find it next to impossible to do on a daily basis. Even harder than that, is to live a life by Godly standards. Many will try for couples of weeks and then find themselves in the same backslid state.

.
“So I find this law at work; when I want to do good, evil I right there with me.” Beloved, you must understand this key point, I have made it a mission in my life to encourage all of God’s Children. When you are preparing to do right, The Word of the Lord says Satan is right with you ready to make you stumble. This is why living a righteous life for The Lord is so hard, because the enemy is by your side trying to discourage you from doing the Work of the Lord.
.
“For in my inner being I delight in God’s Law, but I see another law at work in the members of my flesh…” Today you must realize this; you are not your Flesh! You are not the sin you commit. Do not believe in the lies that have been spoken about you. God has a mighty purpose for your life. The reason why you find it so hard sometimes is because the devil knows what God has put inside of you. Believe and Delight in God’s Law. There is a level of Freedom that God wants you to live at, but to achieve this, you must look beyond your sin and hold onto Grace.

“The Last Hour!”

“Peter and John went to the Temple one afternoon to take part in the three o’clock prayer service. As they approached the Temple , a man lame from birth was being carried in. Each day he was put beside the Temple gate, the one called the Beautiful Gate, so he could beg from the people going into the Temple . When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for some money. Peter and John looked at him intently, and Peter said, “Look at us!” The lame man looked at them eagerly, expecting a gift. But Peter said, “I don’t have any money for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!” Then Peter took the lame man by the right hand and helped him up. And as he did, the man’s feet and anklebones were healed and strengthened. He jumped up, stood on his feet, and began to walk! Then, walking, leaping, and praising God, he went into the Temple with them.” (Acts 3:1-8 NLT)

“But Peter said, “I don’t have any money for you. But I’ll give you what I have.” Beloved, as I write this today, I pray for the deep insight and discernment of the Lord to be renewed within you today. For the Lord has a mighty Word to share today and all those for shall hear it, will receive the Healing revelation that it brings forth. “I don’t have any money for you, but what I’ll give you what I have.” How many of us today are in need of money?  If I were to take a vote, I would say all of us need money in one area or another. Even those who are well off, if they were to lose their Job, they would be in need. As in this case, there was a crippled man by the gate Called Beautiful, who begged everyday to receive money to eat. Now understand, he sat by the most beautiful entrance into God’s temple to beg for money, why everyone went in to worship. As I was reading over this verse, God spoke to my heart and asked me how many people today who sat at watch the Glory of the Lord or asking for the same thing? How many come nightly to the Lord asking for money, when the Lord wants to heal them.
The Crippled man was asking for money, what did Peter give him? How many of us today see money as the root of all problems? There are many of Us today who when ask for Prayer, will say that you are in need of a financial miracle when you have the threat of cancer or sickness and disease upon you. In Jesus Name, receive the Healing Power of the Lord! Believe, Believe, Believe! God wants to Heal you of your sickness. How many days did the Cripple have to go to the temples gates and beg? How many days will those who are suffering from the attack of the enemy ask for a financial breakthrough, when the devil at every moment is trying to your life away. Wake up! The Joy and Victory is here! Jesus Died to give us life, will you receive it in this hour! Instead of the Financial Blessing, Pray and Receive what God has truly waiting for you.
“But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, get up and walk!” There is Power in the Name of Jesus! Glory to the Lord, Glory to the Lord! In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth , Be Healed! Beloved, it is not the financial miracle you need in this hour; it is the Healing Power of our Lord and Savior. !” Then Peter took the lame man by the right hand and helped him up. And as he did, the man’s feet and anklebones were healed and strengthened. He jumped up, stood on his feet, and began to walk! Then, walking, leaping, and praising God, he went into the Temple with them.” Are you ready enter into what God has for you? Then take hold of the Healing in Jesus Name and get up and start walking into the Destiny God has called you to.

“Chosen By Grace”
.
“Lord They have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left and they are trying to kill me! And what was God’s answer to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal. So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by Grace. And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were by works, Grace would no longer be Grace.” (Romans 11:3-6)
.
“Lord They have killed your prophets and torn down your altars; I am the only one left and they are trying to kill me!” Everyday we are called to face some situation in which the enemy is trying to receive victory in our life. It can be as simple as waking in the morning to go to work or sending doubt your way about the things the Lord has promised you. Even through all this, we are quick to look outside ourselves at the people around us, to judge our situation. Especially those who we feel will aren’t doing the things of the Lord. Even though we are enduring a lot, it just seems like the body isn’t doing all that it can. “And what was God’s answer to him? I have reserved for myself seven thousand who have not bowed the knee to Baal.” See, this is what so awesome about God; Even through all turmoil that we see around us, he has unseen people Chosen to do His Will. So what does that mean for us?  “So too, at the present time there is a remnant chosen by Grace.” And all God’s People say Amen! We should rejoice in the fact that it was by Grace that saved us and not by works!
.
“And if by grace, then it is no longer by works; if it were by works, Grace would no longer be Grace.” And this is what it means that God’s Grace is sufficient for our Lives. For it was not for Grace, we would be never be redeemed in the Lord. This is why Jesus came and was among those who were viewed as outsider, outcast and just forgot. He brings a Message of Hope, because it is not by works that we receive this salvation. Believe today in God’s Chosen Grace, for when you do, your life will never be the same.
