Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Tragedy, For it is through sorrow that we are lead to the understanding of our own weakness. For in the mist of what seems like the end, God’s strength and might can be shown. They cried for Lazarus in the grave, but Jesus wept because of their faithlessness. Our fate will always be greater than deaths Sting!

It is Written, “Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there. When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. “Where have you laid him?” he asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they replied. Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, “See how he loved him!” But some of them said, “Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?” Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance. “Take away the stone,” he said. “But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.” Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?” So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.” Therefore many of the Jews who had come to visit Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in him.” John 11:30-45

Prayer: I Pray Father that we as your Children take every Word spoken and apply it to our lives in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 381 1 John 2:12-17

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Love, For it is Love that calls a Man from His Family, to Consecrate himself for the Most High God! For it is Love that calls you away from all things and everyone to spend time with Him who has created you. Our hearts are not set on things of this world, but for the Eternity to come. Love will always thirst until He who brings living waters is within!

It is Written, “I am writing to you, dear children, because your sins have been forgiven on account of his name. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, dear children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God lives in you, and you have overcome the evil one. Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world–the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life–comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.” 1 John 2:12-17

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Bless us with the Spirit to depart from the things of this World so that we May Focus on bring more of the Spirit and Less of the Flesh in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Strength, For the Lord has given us the power to carry on! I Thank the Lord for Rest, For His has set aside a season for every man! I Thank the Lord for Understanding, For we gain knowledge of His Holy Calling through deep meditation of His Word!

It is Written, “As God’s co-workers we urge you not to receive God’s grace in vain. For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation. We put no stumbling block in anyone’s path, so that our ministry will not be discredited. Rather, as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: in great endurance; in troubles, hardships and distresses; in beatings, imprisonments and riots; in hard work, sleepless nights and hunger; in purity, understanding, patience and kindness; in the Holy Spirit and in sincere love; in truthful speech and in the power of God; with weapons of righteousness in the right hand and in the left; through glory and dishonor, bad report and good report; genuine, yet regarded as impostors; known, yet regarded as unknown; dying, and yet we live on; beaten, and yet not killed; sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; poor, yet making many rich; having nothing, and yet possessing everything.” 2 Corinthians 6:1-10

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you Bless your Children to Continue to Endure through all Hardships in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 349 Hebrews 12:1-9

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Obedience, For Jesus did all the things He saw His Father Do! I Thank the Lord for Hard Work, For we are reward in this world by the sweat upon our brow! I Thank the Lord for completion, For Joy comes from the Lord who is the author and finisher of all things!

It is Written, “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. In your struggle against sin, you have not yet resisted to the point of shedding your blood. And have you completely forgotten this word of encouragement that addresses you as a father addresses his son? It says, “My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son.” Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as his children. For what children are not disciplined by their father? If you are not disciplined–and everyone undergoes discipline–then you are not legitimate, not true sons and daughters at all.” Hebrew 12:1-9

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you continue to refine us by your strong loving Hand in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Motivation, For we are called to continue to grow in our Faith and Love in the Lord! I Thank the Lord for Commitment, For we all will be tried in our Relationship with the Father! I Thank the Lord for Destiny, For what God has in store for us is much Greater than what we have in This World!

It is Written, “Keep reminding God’s people of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have departed from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some. Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.” In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.” 2 Timothy 2:14-21

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you Refine those who are called for your Special Purposes in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for every moment, For we time is no longer, memories of the Past shall be our Testimonies! I Thank the Lord for The Time to Come, For we shall be Judges over Angels! I Thank the Lord for Glory, For we Shall be Crowned in Heaven for our Work on Earth!

It is Written, “If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.” 1 Corinthians 13:1-13

Prayer: I Pray Father that we put forth the Love of Christ in every situation in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Relief, For The God knows there is a time to Rest! I Thank the Lord for Finished work, For He is Faithful to Complete what He has Began in you! I Thank the Lord for Perseverance, Through every trail and tribulation, we shall push through in Jesus Name!

It is Written, “I must go on boasting. Although there is nothing to be gained, I will go on to visions and revelations from the Lord. I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven. Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know–God knows. And I know that this man–whether in the body or apart from the body I do not know, but God knows– was caught up to paradise and heard inexpressible things, things that no one is permitted to tell. I will boast about a man like that, but I will not boast about myself, except about my weaknesses. Even if I should choose to boast, I would not be a fool, because I would be speaking the truth. But I refrain, so no one will think more of me than is warranted by what I do or say, or because of these surpassingly great revelations. Therefore, in order to keep me from becoming conceited, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me. Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me. But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.” 2 Corinthians 12:1-9

Prayers: I Pray Lord that you Continue to be Grace and Strength in our Lives in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Prayer, For He hears me cries through every trail! I Thank the Lord for Endurance through pain, For we know the cost of following Christ is to carry the Burden of the Cross! I Thank the Lord for Freedom of Choice, For God’s Love for His Children is greater than our Sin!

It is Written, “Simon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who through the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ have received a faith as precious as ours: Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord. His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires. For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, mutual affection; and to mutual affection, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But whoever does not have them is nearsighted and blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their past sins.” 2 Peter 1:1-9

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you remind your Children where you have saved us from and where we are called to be in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Purpose, For He has given all task that we shall complete in this Life! I Thank the Lord for Health, For when I was weak, His Spirit made me Strong! I Thank the Lord for New Blessings, For daily the Lord Hand is renewed upon my life!”

It is Written, “Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God–this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is–his good, pleasing and perfect will. For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us. If your gift is prophesying, then prophesy in accordance with your faith; if it is serving, then serve; if it is teaching, then teach; if it is to encourage, then give encouragement; if it is giving, then give generously; if it is to lead, do it diligently; if it is to show mercy, do it cheerfully. Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” Romans 12:1-10

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you give your Children the Heart to Love what is good and Hate what is evil in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Silence, For within the Wind, is a Thundering Spirit! I Thank the Lord for Deep Contemplation, For those who have hears shall Hear! I Thank the Lord for Parables, For the Ways of the Lord are not the ways of Men!

It is Written, “After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus. Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters–one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.” While he was still speaking, a bright cloud covered them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus. As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.” Matthew 17:1-9

Prayer: I Pray Father that we as your Children are Blessed with the Spiritual insight to understand the Words you Speak in this Hour to Come in Jesus Name, Amen!
