Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Love, For we receive freely everyday from Heaven which we can not find in this World! I Thank The Lord for Just One, For we are all called to spread the Gospel to all people, Imagine if we all brought a single person to Christ! I Thank The Lord for The Calling, For a Man will Leave his Mother and Father to unity with His Love!

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.” 2 Peter 3:1-9

Prayer: Father, I Pray that as the days grow wicked, that your Children are not lead astray. For the time has come where Satan and his children are taking their place on earth. Let us not give into the lies of this world, but Keep to the Faith and Understanding of your Coming in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Timing, For he knows exactly when to come by our side! I Thank The Lord for Prayers, For we are called to enter in the throne room of Grace! I Thank The Lord for Petitions, For after we have prayed and fasted, We shall bring our requested to The Father!

It is Written, “Therefore, my brothers and sisters, you whom I love and long for, my joy and crown, stand firm in the Lord in this way, dear friends! I plead with Euodia and I plead with Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord. Yes, and I ask you, my true companion, help these women since they have contended at my side in the cause of the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my co-workers, whose names are in the book of life. Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me–put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.” Philippians 4:1-9

Prayer: Father, I Pray that we take hold of your Word and not be anxious anything, but seek you in every situation and to keep the Hope of your Love in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Compassion, For God sees our struggles we have in this fight for salvation! I Thank The Lord for Comfort, For we are called to take refuge in the High tower of our God! I Thank The Lord for Hope, For we shall stand firm in Christ Jesus!

It is Written, “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God. For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. If we are distressed, it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort. We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, as you help us by your prayers. Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many.” 2 Corinthians 1:3-11

Prayer: Dear Heavenly Father, I Pray that as we endure this Christian Fight of Faith, that your children continue to be strengthen through this time of testing and suffering. Through our testimony may you be lifted on high in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 526 1 Corinthians 9:11-18

Thanksgiving: Thanks Be to The Lord for Justice, For we are protected by the Unseen! Thanks be to The Lord for Equality, For we are all equally sinful in God’s eyes, Needing to be forgiven! Thanks be to The Lord for Vision, For we must look beyond what the world tells us.

It is Written, “If we have sown spiritual seed among you, is it too much if we reap a material harvest from you? If others have this right of support from you, shouldn’t we have it all the more? But we did not use this right. On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ. Don’t you know that those who serve in the temple get their food from the temple, and that those who serve at the altar share in what is offered on the altar? In the same way, the Lord has commanded that those who preach the gospel should receive their living from the gospel. But I have not used any of these rights. And I am not writing this in the hope that you will do such things for me, for I would rather die than allow anyone to deprive me of this boast. For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel! If I preach voluntarily, I have a reward; if not voluntarily, I am simply discharging the trust committed to me. What then is my reward? Just this: that in preaching the gospel I may offer it free of charge, and so not make full use of my rights as a preacher of the gospel. ” 1 Corinthians 9:11-18

Prayer: Father, I Pray that those who are called to bring your Word in Spirit and Truth understand that they preach not in Vein, But to be rewarded by you. I pray that we see fully what you have to offer to those who seek to bring an unadulterated Word to this world in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Trust, For even our minds are against us, But our Faith is firmly in Christ Jesus! I Thank The Lord for Destiny, For those who were once Tax collectors and Prostitutes will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven before you! I Thank The Lord for True Equality, For God does not have Favorites!

It is Written, “Jesus told his disciples: “There was a rich man whose manager was accused of wasting his possessions. So he called him in and asked him, ‘What is this I hear about you? Give an account of your management, because you cannot be manager any longer.’ “The manager said to himself, ‘What shall I do now? My master is taking away my job. I’m not strong enough to dig, and I’m ashamed to beg– I know what I’ll do so that, when I lose my job here, people will welcome me into their houses.’ “So he called in each one of his master’s debtors. He asked the first, ‘How much do you owe my master?’ ” ‘Nine hundred gallons of olive oil,’ he replied. “The manager told him, ‘Take your bill, sit down quickly, and make it four hundred and fifty.’ “Then he asked the second, ‘And how much do you owe?’ ” ‘A thousand bushels of wheat,’ he replied. “He told him, ‘Take your bill and make it eight hundred.’ “The master commended the dishonest manager because he had acted shrewdly. For the people of this world are more shrewd in dealing with their own kind than are the people of the light. I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friends for yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed into eternal dwellings. “Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much. So if you have not been trustworthy in handling worldly wealth, who will trust you with true riches? And if you have not been trustworthy with someone else’s property, who will give you property of your own? “No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.” Luke 16:1-14

Prayer: Father, I Pray that we use your wisdom to win those in the world and the wealth of the world to bring more to Christ! Let us understand that even though we are in the World, that we are not of this World and carry on the True Word of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen!

Day 524 John 1:19-28

Thanksgivings: I Thank The Lord for Baptism, For this is the sign to the world that we are marked for the Lord! I Thank The Lord for Water, For it was given to us to wash away sins! I Thank The Lord for the Baptism of The Holy Spirit, For it is the Baptism of Authority over the unseen world!

It is Written, “Now this was John’s testimony when the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Messiah.” They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.” Finally they said, “Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?” John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet, “I am the voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’ ” Now the Pharisees who had been sent questioned him, “Why then do you baptize if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?” “I baptize with water,” John replied, “but among you stands one you do not know. He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie.” This all happened at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was baptizing.” John 1:19-28

Understanding: John’s testimony is true. For he was not the Messiah. He said that there is another who will come after him in whose sandals he was not fit to untie. John Baptized by water, so what would Jesus Baptize by? If the one who is unworthy could only Baptized by the sign of repentance, who Baptism brings forth the Authority to fight against sin? Let us not be so blinded by what is clearly true. If you received John’s Baptism, how are you to forsake that of Christ! Make straight the way of the Lord, for He has called you to be filled with His Spirit!

Prayer: Father, For none are able to live a life apart from you and I pray that we confess these things, no matter how holy one feels or dirty as one lives, We all are sinners who by your Grace and Mercy have been redeemed by the Cross in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank The Lord for Heavenly Encounters, For we never know when we are entertaining Angels! I Thank The Lord Singing in the Spirit, For He has given us the Authority to praise His Holy Name! I Thank The Lord for Deep Prayer, For when we give Heart, Mind, Body and Spirit, it opens a gateway unto you!

It is Written, “”My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one– I in them and you in me–so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. “Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. “Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.” John 17:20-26

Understanding: “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.” Powerful prayer and Powerful Words. We are modern day aliens in our own lands. We must understand that as Jesus was not of this world, we are not of this World. Any Man who seeks to forfeit his Citizenship in Heaven becomes a citizen of Earth. As Aliens, we are mistreated, misunderstood in our languages and cultural ways will always been seen as different. But what we strive for is a Life with greater Authority than those who are under the law of Flesh. Given as we are called under the Law of Spirit, we become rightful heirs to The Kingdom of Heaven. Just as Christ ascended to Heaven and Defeated death, so shall we join him in Victory!

Prayer: Father, I pray that we are your Children do not fall for the lies and temptation that this world brings, but offers ourselves daily as Servants of The Kingdom of Heaven in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Remembrance, For God has healed us of many afflictions, For we are called to give reverence everyday! I Thank the Lord for Commands, For He has given us Authority over All things in Jesus Name! I Thank the Lord for The Holy Spirit, For we have a Helper that fights on our Behalf!

It is written, “As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging. When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” He called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” “Lord, I want to see,” he replied. Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God. ” Luke 18:35-43

Understanding: This man had been blind, maybe from birth or just days, but one thing he knew, he was a sinner. As soon as he heard that Jesus is Coming, He called out to Jesus as the Messiah saying, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” By this he was acknowledging who Jesus is. But that was not enough, Jesus knew what the man wanted, but questioned him, “ What do you want me to do for you?” he replied, “ Lord, I want to see.” Having repented before the Lord and asking for Mercy and Boldly asking for the thing he wanted to be healed of, Jesus Said that the mans Faith had healed him and he was healed. No matter how much we cry out to the Lord, we must first seek repentance, followed by God’s Mercy and only when we have great faith so shall we receive Healing. There is order in The heavens that has authority over all things on earth. Remember The Word of the Lord, for it shall heal you of All things in Jesus Name!

Prayer: Father, I pray and intercede on the Behalf of All men, rather they be righteous or wicked, may they turn from their prideful or evil ways to Praise you in Jesus Name, Amen!

Day 520 Jonah 1:1-15

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord For The Spirit of Understanding, For He reveals the purpose of our trials. I Thank the Lord for Knowledge, For we truly know the difference between right and wrong. I Thank the Lord for Obedience, For it will always be greater than any Sacrifice that we may bring!

It is Written, “The word of the LORD came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the LORD. Then the LORD sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. And they threw the cargo into the sea to lighten the ship. But Jonah had gone below deck, where he lay down and fell into a deep sleep. The captain went to him and said, “How can you sleep? Get up and call on your god! Maybe he will take notice of us so that we will not perish.” Then the sailors said to each other, “Come, let us cast lots to find out who is responsible for this calamity.” They cast lots and the lot fell on Jonah. So they asked him, “Tell us, who is responsible for making all this trouble for us? What kind of work do you do? Where do you come from? What is your country? From what people are you?” He answered, “I am a Hebrew and I worship the LORD, the God of heaven, who made the sea and the dry land.” This terrified them and they asked, “What have you done?” (They knew he was running away from the LORD, because he had already told them so.) The sea was getting rougher and rougher. So they asked him, “What should we do to you to make the sea calm down for us?” “Pick me up and throw me into the sea,” he replied, “and it will become calm. I know that it is my fault that this great storm has come upon you.” Instead, the men did their best to row back to land. But they could not, for the sea grew even wilder than before. Then they cried out to the LORD, “Please, LORD, do not let us die for taking this man’s life. Do not hold us accountable for killing an innocent man, for you, LORD, have done as you pleased.” Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm.” Jonah 1:1-15

Prayer: Father, My Heart and Prayer is for those who are running. I Pray those who you have called into your Service, come home as you are waiting for their return. I Pray that you Make them realize that the Path they take will lead only to destruction until they turn back to you in Jesus Name, Amen!

Thanksgiving: I Thank the Lord for Restoration, For Only He has the power to bring back what has been stolen! I Thank the Lord for Persistence, For even an unjust Man will hear your petition, How much more will God! I Thank the Lord for Mercy, For we miss always remember that under God’s court we have been forgiven and called to forgive those of lesser offenses!

It is Written, “”Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.” Matthew 7:1-5

Prayer: Father, As it is the flesh that makes a man Judge, I pray that the Spirit moves us to Repent. For we have all been forgiven a debt by your Grace through Jesus Christ and called to Forgive and we all have been Forgiven in Jesus Name, Amen!
