Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Direction, For all our ways come from heaven! I thank the Father for his Spirit of discernment that He blesses his people with, for those who lack, eagerly seek and it shall be given unto you!

 

It is Written, “Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest. He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was faithful in all God’s house. Jesus has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses, just as the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself. 4 For every house is built by someone, but God is the builder of everything. “Moses was faithful as a servant in all God’s house,” bearing witness to what would be spoken by God in the future. But Christ is faithful as the Son over God’s house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory. So, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion, during the time of testing in the wilderness, where your ancestors tested and tried me, though for forty years they saw what I did.” Hebrew 3:1-9

 

Prayer: I Pray Lord that you continue to bless your children and left us up through all our trials in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank you Lord for Firm Foundation in Christ, For this world is just dust and as we move through life, I thank you for reminding us that our Treasure in Heaven. I thank you Lord for the Daily reminder that what we need to hold onto is truly not of this World!

 

It is Written, “But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many grief’s. But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness. Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses. In the sight of God, who gives life to everything, and of Christ Jesus, who while testifying before Pontius Pilate made the good confession, I charge you to keep this command without spot or blame until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ, which God will bring about in his own time–God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is so uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment. Command them to do good, to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share. In this way they will lay up treasure for themselves as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. 1 Titus 6:8-19

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that your Children Daily remember why we are here and what we are called to do in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for New Beginnings! For we are blessed to see another year and continue the calling God has given unto his Children. I thank the Lord for he is worthy to complete what He has started within us in Jesus Name!

 

It is written, “Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus, to all God’s holy people in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Philippians 1:1-6

 

Prayer: Father, I Pray that in this New Year, We as your Children grow further in the Calling you have given us in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for the Ending of the old, For what has come to a close is God’s way of preparing us for the new. I Thank the Lord that He has given us a chance to be able to reflect of the past and shown us hope for the Future!

 

It is Written, “This is what the LORD says: “When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back from captivity. I will gather you from all the nations and places where I have banished you,” declares the LORD, “and will bring you back to the place from which I carried you into exile.” You may say, “The LORD has raised up prophets for us in Babylon,” but this is what the LORD says about the king who sits on David’s throne and all the people who remain in this city, your fellow citizens who did not go with you into exile– yes, this is what the LORD Almighty says: “I will send the sword, famine and plague against them and I will make them like figs that are so bad they cannot be eaten. I will pursue them with the sword, famine and plague and will make them abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth, a curse and an object of horror, of scorn and reproach, among all the nations where I drive them. For they have not listened to my words,” declares the LORD, “words that I sent to them again and again by my servants the prophets. And you exiles have not listened either,” declares the LORD. Therefore, hear the word of the LORD, all you exiles whom I have sent away from Jerusalem to Babylon.” Jeremiah 29:10-20

 

Prayer: Father, I Pray that in this eve of a new year, that you Continue to manifest your plans in our life in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 445 Ephesians 5:23-33

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Companionship, For our Father created His son out of Love. It was that Love that died for our sins and it was that Love that will See His Return. I thank you Father for the Mystery of Love, for it calls us to leave our Father’s and Mother’s to unite with you!

 

It is Written, “For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church– for we are members of his body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound mystery–but I am talking about Christ and the church. However, each one of you also must love his wife as he loves himself, and the wife must respect her husband.” Ephesians 5:23-33

 

Prayer: Father, I Pray that you restore the Call of your Son’s as Head of House hold and ignite the importance of what it means to be a strong wife in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank you for Lord for Weakness, For it is when we are made lower than you are exalted Father. Man have accredited their strength by their own hands, not knowing their truth Strength is from Heaven. I Thank you for a daily reminder as to where my true help comes from!

 

It is Written, “Since many are boasting in the way the world does, I too will boast. You gladly put up with fools since you are so wise! In fact, you even put up with anyone who enslaves you or exploits you or takes advantage of you or puts on airs or slaps you in the face. To my shame I admit that we were too weak for that! Whatever anyone else dares to boast about–I am speaking as a fool–I also dare to boast about. Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they Abraham’s descendants? So am I. Are they servants of Christ? (I am out of my mind to talk like this.) I am more. I have worked much harder, been in prison more frequently, been flogged more severely, and been exposed to death again and again. Five times I received from the Jews the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods, once I was pelted with stones, three times I was shipwrecked, I spent a night and a day in the open sea, I have been constantly on the move. I have been in danger from rivers, in danger from bandits, in danger from my fellow Jews, in danger from Gentiles; in danger in the city, in danger in the country, in danger at sea; and in danger from false believers. I have labored and toiled and have often gone without sleep; I have known hunger and thirst and have often gone without food; I have been cold and naked. Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches. Who is weak, and I do not feel weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not inwardly burn? If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. The God and Father of the Lord Jesus, who is to be praised forever, knows that I am not lying.” 2 Corinthians 11:18-31

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that your Children understand that our true wealth and value in this world in not in the things of the seen, but in Our future in God of the Unseen in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank you Lord for Vision, For we must keep the calling alive that you have given your Children. I know you have called us to be over comers even when the odds seems against us. I Thank you for all those who carry your Word daily to the world in Jesus Name!

 

It is Written, “Everyone has heard about your obedience, so I rejoice because of you; but I want you to be wise about what is good, and innocent about what is evil. The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus be with you. Timothy, my co-worker, sends his greetings to you, as do Lucius, Jason and Sosipater, my fellow Jews. I, Tertius, who wrote down this letter, greet you in the Lord. Gaius, whose hospitality I and the whole church here enjoy, sends you his greetings. Erastus, who is the city’s director of public works, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings. Now to him who is able to establish you in accordance with my gospel, the message I proclaim about Jesus Christ, in keeping with the revelation of the mystery hidden for long ages past, but now revealed and made known through the prophetic writings by the command of the eternal God, so that all the Gentiles might come to the obedience that comes from faith– to the only wise God be glory forever through Jesus Christ! Amen.” Romans 16:19-27

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you Bring Special Blessings to your Children who seek to be obedient to you and your Word in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Spiritual Family, For we are Blessed to be united with Brothers and Sisters through a bond strong than Blood! For the Spirit of our Father connects every man and woman through His Son Jesus. I Thank the Lord for Bringing the Lost into His Fold!

 

It is Written, “For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge–that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesian 3:14-21

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that we forgive those who are our Blood and Love those who are apart of your Spirit in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank you Lord for Restoration, For we may be beaten, but we are not broken! I know we all go through our trails and tribulations, but we find wholeness in the presence of the most high God!

 

It is Written, “Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith; test yourselves. Do you not realize that Christ Jesus is in you–unless, of course, you fail the test? And I trust that you will discover that we have not failed the test. Now we pray to God that you will not do anything wrong–not so that people will see that we have stood the test but so that you will do what is right even though we may seem to have failed. For we cannot do anything against the truth, but only for the truth. We are glad whenever we are weak but you are strong; and our prayer is that you may be fully restored. This is why I write these things when I am absent, that when I come I may not have to be harsh in my use of authority–the authority the Lord gave me for building you up, not for tearing you down. Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.” 2 Corinthians 13:5-11

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that your Spirit of Restoration, Peace and Love be upon your Children in our Daily lives in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Worship, For we are being constantly refined and trained to serve our Father in Spirit and Truth. For God has put in each one of us the ability to bring our own gift to the alter!

 

It is Written, “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry. The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.” Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.'” The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. If you worship me, it will all be yours.” Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.'” The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. For it is written: ” ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'” Jesus answered, “It is said: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'” When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time. Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside.” Luke 4:1-14

 

Prayer: I Pray Father that you prepare us to be strong and Filled with the Holy Spirit when our time of testing come in Jesus Name, Amen!
