I wait in expectation

I lay my requests before you Lord, and I wait in expectation. I seek your forgiveness, mercy, direction, and guidance. Let me not lean on my own understanding, but in all my ways acknowledge you, for you make my path straight. I trust you Lord, for only you can open my eyes and my ears to hear you clearly. You said whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm, and I have access to you God through the blood of your son, Jesus Christ. Thank you for all your great and precious promises. Amen

Commit to the Lord


God's promises to me

Proverbs 3 NLT - God's promises to me.

Lord, I will never forget the things you have taught me. I store your commands in my heart. Because I do, I will live many years, and my life will be satisfying. I will never let loyalty and kindness leave me! I tie them around my neck as a reminder. I write them deep within my heart. I have favor with God and people, and I have a good reputation.

I trust in the Lord with all my heart; I do not depend on my own understanding. I seek his will in all I do, and he shows me which path to take.

I am not impressed with my own wisdom. Instead, I fear the Lord and turn away from evil. So I will have healing for my body and strength for my bones.

I honor the Lord with my wealth and the best of everything I have. He fills my barns with grain, and my vats overflow with good wine.

I do not reject the Lord's discipline. I am not upset when he corrects me. The Lord corrects those he loves, as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.

I am joyful becaue I have wisdom, and understanding. Wisdom is more profitable than silver, and my wages are better than gold. Wisdom is more precious than rubies; nothing I desire compares with her. She offers me long life in her right hand, and riches and honor in her left. She will guide me down delightful paths; all her ways are satisfying. Wisdom is a tree of life to me, I embrace her; happy are we who hold her tightly.

By wisdom the Lord founded the earth; by understanding he created the heavens. By his knowledge deep fountains of the earth burst forth and the dew settles beneath the night sky.

I do not lose sight of common sense and discernment. I hang on to them for they refresh my soul. They are jewels on a necklace. They keep me safe on my way, and my feet will not stumble. I go to bed without fear; I will lie down and sleep soundly. I am not afraid of sudden disaster or destruction that comes upon the wicked, for the Lord is my security. He will keep my foot from being caught in a trap.

I will not withhold good from those who deserve it when it is in my power to help them. If I can help my neighbor I will.

I do not plot harm against my neighbor, for those who live nearby trust me. I do not pick a fight without reason when no one has done me harm.

I do not envy violent people or copy their ways. Wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to me for I am godly.

The Lord curses the house of the wicked, but he blesses my home for I am upright.
The Lord mocks the mockers, but is gracious to me for I am humble.
We who are wise inherit honor, but fools are put to shame!

Healing Prayer


If God is for you...


Inhale, Exhale

Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale. What a wonderful gift of life. Inhale. Exhale. The beginning and the end. Inhale peace, exhale confusion. Inhale faith, exhale worry. Inhale love, exhale anger. Breath is the gift of grace. As long as we have it, we have the divine opportunity to go it again. Iyanla Vanzant

Greater worth than gold

For a little while we have to suffer grief and all kinds of trials. These have come so that our faith, of greater worth than gold, may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed. Hear my prayer Lord. I love you with all my heart, my soul, and my strength. I lie down and sleep in peace, for you alone Lord make me dwell in safety You keep me in perfect peace because my mind is steadfast, trusting in you. I will not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but I will be transformed by the renewing of my mind. So I will be able to test and approve what your will is - your good, pleasing and perfect will. May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, my Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. Amen

Your righteousness

I give thanks to you Lord Jesus, because of your righteousness, and I sing praises to the name of the Lord Most High. Your righteousness reaches to the heavens. Your ways, God, are holy and beyond our comprehension. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, and let Your glory be over all the earth. Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In your great mercy, you have given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade. Kept in heaven for us who through faith, are shielded by your power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In this, we greatly rejoice. Amen

Your righteousness

Lord God, your righteousness reaches the heavens. You have done great things. Who is like you God? Your ways, are holy and beyond our meager comprehension. What god is so great as our God? Be exalted oh God, above the heavens, and let your glory be over all the earth. You are my God. Earnestly I seek you. My soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you. I need to know you more, every day, every hour, every minute, every second, I strive to know you better. Amen

Lord bless our troops

Lord, hold our troops fighting for our freedom from tyranny in your loving hands. Protect them, and guide them, as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I cover our troops with your precious blood and surround them with angels. I speak healing to all soldiers injured in their minds and bodies during their fight for our liberty. Lord make them whole again for your Glory. We give glory, wisdom, thanks, honor, power and strength to you, our God, forever! I lift up my requests in the precious name of Jesus the Christ, my Lord and Savior, my blessed redeemer, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords, the Alpha and Omega, and the Bread of Life. To God be the glory! We worship you Christ Jesus, our great shepherd of the sheep, throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen

Life is too short


Many people think that the opposite of fear is courage, when in fact the opposite of fear is faith. When you have faith to overcome your fears, you realize you had courage all along. Be confident and believe in yourself. People will hurt you; God will heal you. People will humiliate you; God will magnify you. People will judge you; God will justify you. You have everything in your hands if you have GOD in your heart. Just something to think about. Willie Knox

Justified through faith

We have been justified through faith and we have peace with you God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access, by faith, into this grace in which we now stand. We walk in the light, as you are in the light. We have fellowship with one another, and your blood Jesus purifies us from all sin. We boast in the hope of your glory and glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance, perseverance creates character, and character gives us hope. Your love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who you gave to us. For from you, and through you, and to you, are all things. Amen

Obvious threat


Love


We walk in the light

We have been justified through faith and we have peace with you God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access, by faith, into this grace in which we now stand. We walk in the light, as you are in the light. We have fellowship with one another, and your blood Jesus purifies us from all sin. We boast in the hope of your glory and glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance, perseverance creates character, and character gives us hope. Your love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who you gave to us. For from you, and through you, and to you, are all things. Amen

God we worship and adore you

I pray every household and family receives God's word in their heart. Keep us safe from all danger and harm. Help us start every day with a new attitude and abundant gratitude. Help us make the best of the day by clearing our minds so we can hear you Lord. Broaden our minds so we can accept all things. Let us not whine or whimper over things we can not control. Let us see sin through your eyes Lord, and acknowledge it is evil. We must confess our sin with our mouths, turn from our evil ways, and accept your forgiveness. When this world closes in on us, let us remember your example Jesus, and slip away to find a quiet place to pray. It is the best response when we are pushed beyond our limits. I know when we are overwhelmed you listen to our hearts. The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We don’t know how we ought to pray but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express, in accordance with God's will. God we worship and adore you for your love for us, your mercy, goodness and kindness. Amen

God has a good plan!


His Goodness


Blessed


All the praise, Glory, and Honor

Jesus, we give you all the praise, all the glory, and all the honor, for being our loving shepherd, and guiding us through every step of our lives. All we had to do is ask you in, and allow your will to be done. Teach your sheep to hear your voice, listen to your word, pay attention and obey. The world teaches obedience is brutal or cruel, but obedience to you God, through faith, is true freedom. Your obedience on the cross led us to righteousness. Your command is to believe in the power of your name, and to love one another. This is love: that we walk in obedience to your command. Thank you Lord. I praise you always that you have chosen us. Amen

Get up, Love God


God in your heart

Refresh yourself in My Presence

Refresh yourself in the Peace of My Presence. This Peace can be your portion at all times and in all circumstances. Learn to hide in the secret of My Presence, even as you carry out your duties in the world. I am both with you and within you. I go before you to open up the way, and I also walk alongside you. There could never be another companion as devoted as I am.

Because I am your constant Companion, there should be a lightness to your step that is observable to others. Do not be weighed down with problems and unresolved issues, for I am your burden-bearer. In the world you have trials and distress, but don’t let them get you down. I have conquered the world and deprived it of power to harm you. In Me you may have confident Peace. ~Jesus Calling~

Written in God's Book


You are never alone!


Dear Lord


Wait for the Lord

Jesus Draw Me Near


The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. 1 Corinthians 10:13 NLT
