God’s Plans

“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.”
Jeremiah 29:11 New International Version (NIV)

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Are you walking in God’s plans for you?

Before you were formed in your mother’s womb, God had already planned your life with Him. He had already ordained that you would be priests and kings in His Kingdom. But because He is a just and a loving God He has allowed us to have our own way & will and to live and do the things we want to, even NOT serving Him. We can choose to follow His Word, which is His will for us or we can choose to do our own thing and be like the rest of the heathen unsaved world, which is in an ever steepening spiral straight into Hell. If we choose His way and His will He will prosper us and give us a future with Him, but if we choose our own thing then His hand is not in it and we will not (CAN NOT) receive what He has for us, we are on our own. Instead we leave ourselves open for what is referred to in Deuteronomy 28:15-68, as the CURSE. But God even tells us which to choose between life or death…His choice – choose life!

MY PRAYER…
In my struggles, O Lord, help me find the grace You have already given me. Lord help me to fulfill the plan and purpose that You wrote in the book of my life before I was born. Lord help me to see, through Your Holy Spirit and Your Word what You have planned for me. By Your grace and through Your mercy when You sent my Lord and Savior, Jesus, I pray.
Amen

A Child of God

We are assured and know that [God being a partner in
their labor] all things work together and are [fitting into a plan] for good to and for those who love God and are called according to [ His ] design and purpose.
Romans 8:28 Amplified Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Are you really a Child of God?

If we are Children of the ‘Most High God’ then God is in our lives. He is at work right now, “UNDOING” Satan’s destructive messes and leading us to the places He wants us to be, if we will listen and follow Him. But we must choose to follow Him, He will not make us. God doesn’t cause the messes in our lives or bring sickness and disease. That is NOT what this scripture says. Those things are from the curse and the devil is responsible for them. God never put someone in a wheelchair to teach them something or so He could use them as a witness. That is NOT god’s way of doing things and you won’t find scripture to back up that nonsense. That kind of talk and teaching is pure lies straight from the pit of Hell and the author of all lies, Satan. Anyone who is trying to use this kind of garbage as being from God is being used by the devil. But we know that God will take what was meant to be of harm (caused by the devil) and will use it to accomplish His purposes in our lives. He will turn it around and use it against the evil one. The key is for us to seek His purpose, to live His will, to love Him and to honor Him with praise. If that is our goal, if our hearts are pure and true to Him, then we can be sure our God is with us every step of our way.

MY PRAYER…
Thank You, God, for being at work in my life. Thank You for not leaving me alone to my best effort, insight, and choice. Thank You for having a plan for me and being the assurance that I can’t mess that plan up, IF I seek Your will. Thank You for being my God, my Father, and my Partner through all of life.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen

Washed in Blood

For as much as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:
1 Peter 1:18-19 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE(s)…
Are you under the “Blood”? Have you been redeemed by the “Blood”, washed in the “Blood”? Do you fully understand what this means? Or are you still receiving the traditions of men concerning remission of sin? Jesus redeemed us from the curse of the “Law”, from our life of sin and the sin nature we were born with and from our separation from God. He offered His blood upon God’s heavenly altar once for ALL sin. It’s over, it’s a done deal, we have nothing else to do except to receive it! We were not redeemed with silver and gold, or with the things of men, or with our own futile works, or by our confessions to a priest, but only by the precious blood of Jesus. All that remains is for you to make Jesus the ‘Lord’ of your life. That and that alone redeems you from the curse. The ‘Blood’ of Jesus is the ONLY thing can (has-past tense) redeemed us from sin. He paid the price required by God for the remission of sin, our sin! (Heb 9:22, And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.)

MY PRAYER…
Most Holy Father, thank You for making a way for me where there was no way. Thank You Lord that You sent Your Son to redeem me, to shed His blood for the remission of my sin. Thank You Lord that He willingly became the sacrifice required for my sin. That He placed His blood upon Your Holy Altar that I might be redeemed and have remission of sin. Thank You Jesus for paying the price for me, for being my Substitute. Through my Redeemer, my Lord, and my Saviour, Jesus, I pray.
Amen

Heaven On Earth

Jesus replied, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.”
John 14:23 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Did you know you can have Heaven on earth right now?

Did you notice what He said? “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. (and then) My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. “He said we (The Father God, The Son Jesus, and The Holy Spirit) will come to you and make our home with you. That’s here and now on earth, not when we get to heaven! At many Christian funerals, the preacher or speaker emphasizes how Jesus has left to make ready a house in His Father’s mansion for us to join Him in heaven. Then He is going to come back for us. But in these verses here, Jesus makes what I believe to be an even more important promise. He’s telling us that until it is time for us to come be with Him in His mansion in Heaven, He will come live with us here and now on earth. It all hinges on one thing, our willingness to obey Him. Do you want Him to live with you here and now? It’s not a bad deal, is it? We do not have to wait until we get to heaven to experience the God kind of life, we are supposed to have heaven here on Earth! So let’s not allow obedience to be a forgotten word in our lifestyle. Let’s not fall prey to the sin that caused Lucifer to fall from heaven and become Satan. Let’s do the will of God. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Then Jesus and the Father will come to us, here on earth, and make their home with us.

So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven. (Luke 11:2)

MY PRAYER…
Father, thank You for providing us with Your Word as our Guide in life. Thank You for creating an operating manual for my life here on earth, Your Holy Word. My request, Father, I need Your abiding presence to face the challenges of life. As You have upheld Your children through the ages, I am thankful to greet each day knowing that I will not face it alone. But I know that You are here with me each and every day, living in my heart. Father, let me be an instrument of Your peace, harmony, and unity here on earth. In Jesus’ precious name I pray.
Amen

God’s System Of Government

This is why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. Give everyone what you owe him. If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.
Romans 13:6-7 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Do you understand God’s system of Government?

This is actually God’s financial budget plan. First your tithe goes to God, 2nd you pay Caesar – what you owe, your bills, this includes your taxes etc. & what is necessary to run government, 3rd what is left is yours for living on. But where would we be without government, order and laws? While we may not like how the system functions today, what if we had no system at all? Can you imagine what society would be like then. If the governing authorities are from God and we do not submit to them, then we are in rebellion unto God. Remember that rebellion is the greatest of all sin! It’s what cost Lucifer his position in heaven and caused him to be cast out, to be known for ever more as the evil one, Satan. Pay authority to the office even if you do not like or agree with the man/woman holding the office. Then next election seek God and vote for the candidate that you hear from God to vote for. If everyone would do the same before voting (instead of voting party lines) then God could put the person in office that He wanted there. If God was able to do this can you imagine how much better our government would be running! Wow!, A Godly government, just imagine that. Remember God has to use man to do His work here on Earth. Vote Godly, NOT worldly!!

MY PRAYER…
Holy God, creator of all that there is, I thank You that I am free in You and belong to no man or power. Yet because I want Your name to be respected, I pledge to obey the laws of this land as long as they do not run directly in contradiction to Your will, which is Your Word. At the same time, I fervently pray that You heal our land, and restore to us devout men, Christian men, as leaders. Father, I thank You for our current President, a man not afraid to let the world know the he consults in You daily in all that he does. Father, continue to lead and guide him and all of his advisors, that we may lead Godly and peaceable lives in You. In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen

God Did!

But God so rich is He in His mercy! Because of and in order to satisfy the great and wonderful and intense love with which He loved us, Even when we were dead (slain) by [our own] shortcomings and trespasses, He made us alive together in fellowship and in union with Christ; [He gave us the very life of Christ Himself, the same new life with which He
quickened Him, for] it is by grace (His favor and mercy which you did not deserve) that you are saved (delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation).
Ephesians 2:4-5 Amplified Translation

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Everybody say: “But GOD DID!”

God did what you could NOT do yourself! You could not do anything to save yourself except to receive what God has given you, His Son. There is ABSOLUTELY NO other way to be saved or to get to Heaven!! I cannot think of anything else I’d prefer God to be rich in besides His Mercy & His Grace. I know many of my failures, my shortcomings, sins, and transgressions. I know how I was before I received His mercy and grace. Without His mercy to pardon, and without His grace to send Jesus to redeem us back from our sin, I would be lost and without God, I would be on my way to a fiery eternity. Now, because of His rich mercy, my life is tied to Jesus’ future and not the one I earned for myself. I am, because Jesus did. I live because Jesus died (for me). There is NO other way! No other religion, no other god, no other road to Heaven except through Jesus Christ. There is ONLY ONE WAY!

MY PRAYER
Father of all grace and mercy, I give all thanks to You. I thank You for being such a loving Father and Lord. Thank You for extending Your grace when I have not deserved it. Thank You for giving Your mercy when I most needed it. Thank You for giving life when I thought my life was doomed and hopeless. May my health and wealth be found in Your mercy and grace much more than in money and gold. Help me, Father to be more like Jesus each and every day. Through my Lord, and my Saviour, Jesus, I pray.
Amen

Deceived?

If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
1 John 1:8 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…

You are deceived If you say you have never sinned, or don’t sin. There isn’t a man (or woman) that ever walked the face of the earth that didn’t have sin, save the man Jesus Christ Himself. I don’t care who you are or that you say you’ve never sinned. The Bible says: “For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God.(Rom 3:23)” And God’s Word (The Bible) is truth! For we were all born of Adam’s seed, who put mankind into sin, and we deceive ourselves if we say we have no sin or have never sinned. But, God (everybody say, “But, God “) in His great mercy saw fit to send His only Son to pay the price for us. He had to because there was no other way we could be made righteous before Him. His righteous judgment would have demanded our death. But, Jesus bought us out of sin, sickness, poverty, depression, bondage and whatever else you might need recovered from with His blood on the cross that great day over 2000 years ago. We must now walk (be renewed by) in the light of His grace and mercy. Receive what Jesus has already done for you and allow His Word to change and conform you into the image of Him.

MY PRAYER…
Loving Father, thank You for making a way for me where there was no way. Thank You for showing me the sin in my life and making a way for my forgiveness through the blood of Jesus. Father, help me by the power of Your Holy Spirit to walk and live a sinless life from this day forward. Change me Lord and renew my mind in You. Help me to know that I have been cleansed with the blood of Jesus and been made righteous before You, through His righteousness. In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen

Don’t Hate People

Let those who love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of His faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
Psalm 97:10 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Do not hate people, hate only the evil they do!

Ask yourself this question: Do I hate people, or do I just hate the evil they do and represent? Hate is a bold and powerful emotion as well as just a word . We must not hate people, but we are to hate evil. It’s a tough combination to pull off, but absolutely vital to our faith. Evil is here because of the evil one — the champion of hate, lies, and death (Satan). So when evil rears its ugly head, let’s be courageous and oppose Satan and his work. God’s Word says we already have the victory over the devil through Jesus. We just have to realize that and then walk it out in life. In the process, let’s pray for those trapped in Satan’s tentacles, even if they consider us enemies. Pray for those who’s lifestyles are immoral and who practice homosexuality and lesbianism. Pray that God will have mercy on them and show them the correct way, but don’t hate them. This is what God directs in His Word. “But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” Matthew 5:44-45

MY PRAYER…
Almighty God, make my heart grieved by the evil in my world. Give me the power to be strong against those things opposed to your will and your character. Yet Father, just as You redeemed me by grace, and rescued me while I was a captive to sin, give me courage to care about those who are in the evil one’s embrace. Grace me Lord to pray for those who are despitefully used by the evil one, help me to heap coals of fire upon their heads and help them to see your light. Through my Savior, Jesus, I pray.
Amen

Un-forgiveness or Offense

For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.
Matthew 6:14-15 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Holding of un-forgiveness or offense in your heart.

Do not hold any un-forgiveness or offense in your heart against anyone. But, rather go to that person and confront them in person concerning the offense and ask forgiveness. Yes, even if it was they who offended you. You should not let the sun set on you with un-forgiveness in your heart. The Bible says it will give place to the devil! You as a Christian are to go them and ask forgiveness. We must not hold any un-forgiveness in our hearts. It opens the door to Satan and allows him to come and cause trouble. What is Jesus saying here? Notice that the two thoughts or sentences are connected by the word “but”, in other words one is dependent upon the other happening first. He’s telling us that if we hold un-forgiveness or offense in our hearts against anyone that God can NOT forgive us either! If God hasn’t or can’t forgive you, how can He answer any prayer that you offer up to Him? Having trouble getting answers to prayers lately? Let’s make a check, are we holding un-forgiveness toward someone? Let’s get our hearts right with God and with our brethren and our answers to prayer will come. BTW saying:”I forgive you, but I’ll never forget what you did!” is NOT forgiving and is still holding “Un-forgiveness!”

MY PRAYER…
Precious Father, thank You for giving me the power through Your Holy Spirit to forgive those who trespass against me. Thank You Lord, for forgiving me, for cleansing me of all unrighteousness through the precious blood of Jesus. Father, Thank You that with a pure heart You hear my prayers, and I know if You hear them You will answer them. Father, thank You for purging me and helping me to remove all un-forgiveness, strife, envy, and anything else that is not a part of Your Love from me. Thank You Lord for filling me with Your Love, Agape love for people.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen
