Don’t Forget To Pray!



Today’s Inspiration πŸ™πŸ˜‡
Don’t forget to pray!
 
Matthew 6:6 (NIV)
But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Matthew 6:9-13 (NIV)
“This, then, is how you should pray:“ ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’

Success is an inside job!


Today's Inspiration πŸ€—πŸ™ŒπŸΎπŸ€

Success is an inside job. When we focus on God we always win even when it looks grim.  

Psalms 25:14-15 (MSG)
God-friendship is for God-worshipers; They are the ones he confides in. If I keep my eyes on God, I won't trip over my own feet.

If we concentrate on God our problems would subside. Our focus would change and our priorities would rearrange. Our issues would become opportunities, our tests would end in testimonies, and our tribulations would become triumphs.

Jesus is the best friend we could ever have. The benefits are endless. He never leaves us defenseless and His support is tremendous. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus lovesπŸ’ž you!

Delight in the Lord always!


Today’s Inspiration πŸ’“πŸ˜‡πŸ€—

It is hard to focus on our purpose when the world makes us feel worthless.....by distracting us with fear. Entertaining us, hoping our dreams would disappear. Feeding us with alternative facts hoping our faith in God would ultimately collapse. The only way to make it each day is to give it to God, never ceasing to pray. 

Psalms 1:1-2 Oh, the joys of those who do not
follow the advice of the wicked, or stand around with sinners, or join in with mockers. But they delight in the law of the Lord, meditating on it day and night.

When we delight in the Lord we are able to stand. We are able to walk out our purpose. We become strong as trees producing green leaves. Never withering, always glimmering, never hindering God’s will, always considering God’s plan. Resisting the enemy and surrendering all to stand. 

Psalms 1:3 (NLT) .....like trees planted along the riverbank, bearing fruit each season. Their leaves never wither, and they prosper in all they do.

The way to prosperity is through Jesus. We have to stay connected to God everyday and in every way. 

If there are ares in your life where the connection is frayed seek God to prevent any further communication delay. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves πŸ’ž you!

Instrument for the Lord



Today's Inspiration πŸŽΆπŸ€—

Living in Christ means dying to sin. When we are in Jesus sin no longer has a grip πŸ”“on us. 

We are an instrument 🎸 for the Lord. If we are not careful we will allow our instruments 🎻 to be played for sin. 

What tunes are we playing? 

The moments of our lives are melodies 🎢. The melody depends on who we allow to play our tunes?

Romans 6:12-13 (NLT)
Do not let sin control the way you live; do not give in to sinful desires. Do not let any part of your body become an instrument of evil to serve sin. Instead, give yourselves completely to God, for you were dead, but now you have new life. So use your whole body as an instrument to do what is right for the glory of God.

Our ways are not God's ways. What we feel is good and what God says is good may not be the same unless we have the Holy Spirit. 

Do not be an instrument for the devil  by allowing your thoughts ,words, or actions to play a melody of sin. 

Allow Jesus to use your instrument for God's glory. We are a part of a wonderful symphony when Jesus is our conductor. Jesus sets the tempo to our life.  To allow us to perform masterpieces in His heavenly orchestra to perform in God's master theater, in this temporary playground called life. 

Think about who and what you allow to blow your horn, play your strings, or beat your drums.  

You are an instrument and you were designed to only play for the Lord!

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves πŸ’ž you!

Loving One Another

“I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear” ~Dr. Martin Luther King

Wisdom Seekers



Today’s Inspiration πŸ˜‡πŸ’•

Wisdom is greater than riches. If we gain wisdom we could attain & sustain wealth, and health. 

Proverbs 2:2-8 (NLT)
Tune your ears to wisdom, and concentrate on understanding.

Then you will understand what it means to fear the Lord, and you will gain knowledge of God.
For the Lord grants wisdom!
From his mouth come knowledge and understanding.
He grants a treasure of common sense to the honest.

God grants wisdom. Wisdom and understanding comes from the Lord. Jesus doesn’t give us a table, Jesus gives us  wisdom to turn a tree into a table. 

If you are facing an obstacle, it may not be an obstacle? Your obstacle may be a tree and you need wisdom on how to turn your tree into a table. 

Tune your ears to wisdom and turn your trees into furniture. Cry out for insight, ask for understanding and turn your gifts into treasures.

Strong Tower



Today’s Inspiration πŸ˜‡πŸ€—

Towers are tall and were created to provide greater visibility in battle, to survey defense positions. They also provide protection against opposition. 

Towers also serve as a method of communication from large distances similar to lighthouses and cell towers. 

Proverbs 18:10 (KJV)
The name of the Lord is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

When we face opposition we should run into our Strong Tower.

When we need to know the position of the enemy we should run into our Strong Tower. 

When we need to communicate across enemy lines we should run into our Strong Tower and pray. 

Our help comes from the Lord. When in doubt run don’t shout. God is our Strong Tower. 
He is the only one who can give us plans and show us the enemy’s hands. 
He will provide knowledge and protection, strength and direction. 

Make the connection, call on the name of the Lord who is our Strong Tower. 
The Lord has all the power and is equipped to completely devour our enemies, even in our darkest hour. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus Loves πŸ’• you!

The Healer is Here!



Today’s Inspiration πŸ’’πŸ˜‡

If you are in need of healing, the Healer is here!

Psalms 34:19 
Many are the afflictions of the righteous: but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.

We have to speak the word of God even when what we see or feel does not match what we read in the word. 
God’s word is true. Speak the word in faith. 
Sickness can weaken our spiritual armor if we lose faith. Do not allow your physical state to dictate your faith. 

Jeremiah 33:6 (KJV)
Behold, I will bring it, health and cure, and I will cure them, and will reveal unto them the abundance of peace and truth.

In God there is healing, peace and truth. Do not believe the doctors, believe God. If you do not not have strength to believe, you will find your strength in the Lord. 

Psalms 29:11 (KJV)
The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.

I pray that the Lord will bless you with his strength, give you peace, and heal you in the name of Jesus.

Wisdom



Today’s Inspiration πŸ˜‡πŸ€—

We live in a world where everyone moves according to their feelings and no one wants instructions. 

The foundation of true knowledge is fear of the Lord. 

Proverbs 1:7
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Fear of the Lord means reverence and respect. 
It is loving God enough to respect and obey God’s instructions. 
It is loving God enough to want to obey. 
It is acknowledging that God is our maker and our Creator and only He holds the key to our destiny. 

Be wise and fear the Lord. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus Loves πŸ’• you!

Never lose your flavor



Today’s Inspiration πŸ˜‡
Our life is not our own. We belong to the Lord. We should represent Christ in everything we do. We have to begin and end our day with the Lord. 

Jesus should be with us in every step we take and every move we make. 

Colossians 3:17 (ESV)
And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

We should not move without the Lord. Our words and actions should reflect the goodness of the Lord.

Colossians 3:23-24 (NLT)
Work willingly at whatever you do, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Remember that the Lord will give you an inheritance as your reward, and that the Master you are serving is Christ.

God will give us our reward. We are here to serve the Lord. We should not work according to our pay, we should work always as if we are working for the Lord. 

We have to be an example for the world to see how Christ lives in you and me. We are the salt of the earth and we can never lose our flavor because God provides our taste that gives us our savor. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves πŸ’• you!

Happy New Year!



Today’s Inspiration πŸŽ‰πŸŽŠπŸŽ†

It is a New Year! You made it! 

Despite the odds and the obstacles, you made it. 

If you are looking into this year with hope wrapped with fear, doubt, and anxiety, know that God is near. He hears your cries. 

God is going to do a new thing this year. 
You have to move forward without fear. 
You have to give God your all and answer the call.

For I am about to do something new.
See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?
I will make a pathway through the wilderness.
I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.

If you are in a wilderness trying to fight your way out, know that God is creating a pathway. You do not need to fight. Look for Jesus and the Spirit of the Lord will guide you. 

If you are facing some impossible tasks, look for Jesus. There will be rivers in your dry places. If it’s your marriage, job, health, business, family, your faith, your self-esteem, your finances, or any other area that is dry, look for Jesus. God will create rivers to nourish and revive those dry places.

Do not consider your situation only consider our God. 

Leave the past in the past and believe God for your rivers and pathways. 

Be blessed and know that Jesus loves πŸ’• you!
