WE HAVE TO TEACH OUR CHILDREN LIKE CHRIST TAUGHT HIS DISCIPLES

The Word tells us to "train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not turn from it." Training a child in the way to go means: raising them in the Word "all Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training…" (2 Timothy 3:16). Teaching children the truths of Scripture and how to pray is what Jesus did for His Disciples. This will make them wise for salvation (2 Timothy 3:15); thoroughly equip them to do good works (2 Timothy 3:17); prepare them to give an answer to everyone who asks them the reason for their hope (1 Peter 3:15), and prepare them to withstand the onslaught of our corrupt system and Society. 

Father, You planted Your seed in our children before they were born; teach us how to nourish them with Your Word, so they will not stray far from You.  Lord, guide them through their day-to-day struggles and protect them from the evils of this world.  Father, we ask You to order their steps, like You ordered Your Son's steps, and help them develop Christ-like character.  Lord, give them eyes that see Your path of righteousness and ears that hear the Truth. Father, give them a strong desire to know You and strengthen their PRAYER life.  Lord, baptize our children with the Holy Spirit to draw them near to Thee and help them grow in grace, in Jesus' name Amen.

PRAY FOR PROTECTION

Psalm 32:7 You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. Ephesians 6:11 "So we" Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.

Father, help us pray in Spirit on every occasion, stay alert and be persistent in our prayer lives. Lord, right now we pray for protection from the enemy and every demonic Spirit around us. Therefore, we put on every piece of Your armor so we will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle we will still be standing firm.  14 Standing our ground by, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. 15 Father, thank You, for the shoes, of peace that comes from the Good News so that we will be fully prepared. 16 In addition to all of this Lord, we hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the enemy. Lord, we put on salvation as our helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is Your Word, as we continue to serve our purpose and grow in grace, in Jesus name, Amen.

THE TRUTH 💯💯

1Thessalonian 2:13 And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.

Father, we believe The Holy Bible is a direct line of communication from You, interpreted by the authors of the respective books.  Lord, everything predicted in the Word about our future has come to pass. Father, it prophesy what is actually going to happen to specific nations: Russian, the British Commonwealth, China, the United States, Italy, Turkey, Ethiopia, and many others, major nations of this world. So, thank You Lord, that the Word is at work in us, filling us with Your wisdom and the knowledge to implement You in our daily lives. Lord, continue nourishing our Fruit, so we can present ourselves to God as one approved, a worker who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the Word of truth. In Jesus name Amen

GOD WILL REMOVE IT

Genesis 50:20  You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.

What we forget is once we Accept Christ as our Savior our lives are no longer our own. He has paid for our Spirits with His life and He has a plan for us, "and that plan is for us to do good, Prosper, and build up His Kingdom."  "Jeremiah 29:11 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."

But sometimes our choices interfere with God's plan and takes us off track and when that happens our Guardian angels go to work.  Removing the people or things we choose that brings us more harm than good.  So, God will separate us from anyone or anything that takes us off the path of righteousness. People that interferes with our prayer lives or worship time, He will remove them. That job that keeps us from home and fellowship, He'll remove it. That relationship that has you angry, confused, Jealous, and full of Strife, He'll remove it.

So when people start  Vanishing from your life, think about it "were they interfering with God's plan for you," if so He removed them. Maybe that relationship that kept you angry and confused, was interfering with God's plan for you, if so, He removed them "now you can focus" That betrayal that sent you on your way, was because you were not suppose to be there, He removed you "now you can serve your purpose."   So the next time something ir someone vanish from your life, think about it "was it interfering with God's plan for you. If so He removed it." He did what He needed to do to accomplish what is now being done, "you serving your purpose."

PRAISE THE LORD CHURCH GOOD OR BAD

We proclaim how great you are and tell of the wonderful things you have done. Sing to the LORD! Praise the LORD! He rescues the oppressed from the power of evil people. (Jeremiah 20:13) Let us praise God for his glorious grace, for the free gift he gave us in his dear Son! (Ephesians 1:6)

Father, let not Your Church be discouraged during suffering, because suffering helps us grow in grace. Thank You for keeping us through the night and for the small blessings we take for granted. Thank You, for touching our hearts and filling us with the things of the Spirit. Father, let the Word cleanse us and give You room to move in and through us. Lord, what the enemy means for evil against Your Church bodies, we believe You will use for good. Remind our hearts of this as we pray for our Pastors and congregations, Especially when we are under attacked from all sides by the enemy.  Lord, remind us of Your faithfulness to use everything for the good of the Church and Your glory,    Father, we will not fear but trust in Your provision for Your Church families as we practice what we have learned.  So, the people of our Church will not only be readers of Your Word but believers and doers of the Word. Increase our faith and develop our Fruit of love. The love that gives us the power to unite as brothers and sisters in Christ and understand how great we are through Christ and the love He has for us. Lord, we surrender all to You, so the Father, can do great and unimaginable things through us and Your Church, in Jesus name Amen

STAY AWAY FROM BAD COMPANY

Stay away from things that cause you to sin. "1 Corinthians 15:33 Do not be misled: “Bad company corrupts good character.”

God said, "do not be misled" so stay away from that which corrupts us. If we know being around people take us out of character, stay away. Stay away from that which makes us weak and corrupt. Stay away from backbiters that cause nothing but strife. Stay away from people who are Self absorbed and always chasing money.  Stay away from bad company, even if it's you family

Father, let us not be misled  by bad company, let not those we hang around corrupt our character.   Lord, give us Christ'like strength when temptation try to overtake us, let us remember Your Word that gives us away of escape.  Father, keep us surrounded by Spiritual Soldiers and protect us from backbiters, envy, jealous, and strife.  Father, examine our hearts and cut away the things of the flesh and repair it with the things of the Spirit.  Let Your thoughts become our thoughts and helps us become more like Your Son, in Jesus name Amen

THE WORD WILL HELP US SLEEP

Can't sleep, God’s Word can bring you comfort and peaceful rest, through study.  Let the Word take our minds off what we had to deal with today and we should never worry about tomorrow. God tells us in "Matthews 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own."

"Psalm 4:8 we will lie down and sleep in peace, for You alone, O Lord make us dwell in safety." Philippians 4:6-7 So, we will "not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present our requests to You. And the peace of the Spirit, which transcends all understanding, will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus. Father, we thank You, for keeping us, our families and friends through another day.  Lord, thank You, for forgiveness of our shortcomings. Thank You, Psalm127:2 …for giving Your beloved sheeps rest.  In Jesus name Amen

Now Behold The Lamb

Revelation 21:27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.

LOVE OUR ENEMIES NOT WITHOUT SPIRIT

Jesus says that we are not to just smile and mind our own business when we are hated and mistreated. We are to actively try to do good towards those that hate or wronged us. This literature refers to the kind of love that doesn't serve itself, but extends itself for the sake of others. This takes the kind of love Christ has for us, so we can't love our enemies without Him.

The moment you start hating someone They now have control over you. Forgive and give it to God and regain control of the situation.

Father, loving our enemies isn't a matter of just thinking nice thoughts. We need Jesus to do a heart change within us, to put the kind of heart within us toward our enemies that was in You who sent Your Son to redeem us. Lord, give us Your Spirit of love for all people eventhough they have betrayed us and thumb their noses at us again and again. This way we will reap hot coals over their heads and we will be rewarded for doing good. Lord, help us practice what we have learned, so we will have a heart of love for the loveless. Father, baptize us in the Holy Spirit, because the Spirit is what we need to love our own enemies. So, Lord we decree and declare we will not hate or hold grudges but forgive, so the enemy will no longer control us. In Jesus name Amen

THANK YOU GUARDIAN ANGEL

Psalm 91:11-12 For He will command His angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.

Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, thank You for keeping us through another night. Thank You for the hedge of protection and guardian  angels You have around us. Bless those who loved ones that were called home and give them comfort and peace as they support each other through these times. Father help us be strong and courageous, making wise decisions guided by the Holy Spirit, and not be afraid or discouraged. Father, continue working in and through us to help build up Your Kingdom and each other. Lord before we start our day we thank You in advance for watching over us in Jesus name, Amen

WE NEED TO BE PERSISTENT

We need to be more persistent in waiting upon the Lord. A lot of Christians normally give up before we prevail and we never receive God's promise

Luke 18:1-8 And he told them a parable to the effect that they ought always to pray and not lose heart. He said, “In a certain city there was a judge who neither feared God nor respected man. And there was a widow in that city who kept coming to him and saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’ For a while he refused, but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will give her justice, so that she will not beat me down by her continual coming.’”

Father, let us also lay aside our worldly weight and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking to Jesus. The founder and perfecter of our faith, through His endurance of the cross, that saved us from our sins. Lord, help us be as determined to please You, as You were determined to please our heavenly Father. Lord, give us perseverance, especially in difficult situations. Lord, guide us through our many trials, test, tribulations and persecutions from our enemies and Satan. Father, keep us steadfast in our faith, because our faith is only as strong as the Object of our faith and that is Jesus Christ. Lord, let us be as persistence as the widow who beat down the King for Justice, in Jesus name Amen

WHAT IS A FATHER

Proverbs 23:22 Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old. ... Proverbs 23:24 The father of a righteous child has great joy; a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him. Proverbs 20:7 The righteous lead blameless lives; blessed are their children after them.

A father’s role in the family is a pivotal one.  He is called upon to be a leader and protector for the family, and to give an example of Christ like character and love by being loving towards his wife and children. FATHER'S are also to be strong in the faith, and to bring their children up knowing God and right from wrong.

Lord, help our Father's be the overseer and be above reproach, help them be faithful to their wives. Father, teach them how to be temperate with their families, maintain self-controlled, always respectable to others, and show hospitable to those around him. Lord, help our father's teach and train their children in the way to go, so they do not stray for from You. Lord, let them not give in to drunkenness and violence, but be gentle and not quarrelsome. Father, let them not be a lover of money, but be a lover of the things of the Spirit.  Lord, help our FATHER'S manage their families and help his children obey him, in a manner worthy of full respect. in Jesus name Amen

GRIEVING THE LOSS OF A CHILD

God not only sympathizes with us when we suffer, but He also empathizes with us as well. He too loss His Son on the cross for our sins. So His understanding and love for us has an incredible way of turning things around on our behalf. Where there is grief and loss, God brings understanding and strength.  Where there is pain and suffering, He brings peace and comfort.  Only He can turn our mourning into dancing and clothe us with gladness instead of despair during our darkest hour


Father, grant those who are mourning the loss of a loved one; peace and gladness, as You help them through their grief. Father, Your Word tells us, You will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more; neither shall they be mourning. Lord, help them understand that death, like life, is only temporary; because our Spirits will move on, so we pray they gave their souls to You. Father, we praise You and our Lord Jesus Christ, for compassion and comfort.  Lord, You, comfort us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in trouble with the comfort we receive from You. Lord, just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ. Father when we are distressed, it is for Your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for Your comfort, which produces in us patient and endurance. Lord, prepare us for Your second coming, the ultimate comfort and peace we will experience. Father, we pray that we dwell in Your house all the days of our lives because You are our light and salvation. Father, open our hearts to comfort others, the sick, the dying, the homeless, and those that need the love and comfort of You Lord. Amen.

SELFISHNESS

Galatians 5:17 For there is a root of sinful self-interest in us that is at odds with a free spirit, just as the free spirit is incompatible with selfishness. These two ways of life are antithetical, so that you cannot live at times one way and at times another way according to how you feel on any given day. 18 Why don't you choose to be led by the Spirit and so escape the erratic compulsions of a law-dominated existence? 19 It is obvious what kind of life develops out of trying to get your own way all the time: repetitive, loveless, cheap sex; a stinking accumulation of mental and emotional garbage; frenzied and joyless grabs for happiness;


Lord, take our minds off the narrowness of self-interest and give us eyes that see the bigger picture. Father, help us take ourselves to the extreme opposite of our egos so we can behold every situation from the aspect of You. Father, search our hearts and minds and remove all that is not of You, bitterness, jealousy, and selfish ambition; that we may be harboring. Let us not be arrogant or lie against the truth. Lord, let not greed exploit us or selfishness and empty conceit, Separate us. But with humility of mind let each of us regard one another as more important than our self; do not merely look out for our own personal interests, but also for the interests of others, in Jesus name Amen

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS

The Word tells us that we should not meddle in other people’s business, but stay focused on our needs and correction. Don’t put our two cents in about a situation that does not concern us, that only creates more problems. A lot of people want to know our business not to help us, but to have something to gossip about. When we set our minds on Christ, we will not have time to meddle in other people situations.

Proverbs 26:20-21 Where there is no wood, a fire goes out, and where there is no gossip, contention ceases. Like charcoal is to burning coals, and wood to fire, so is a contentious person to kindle strife.

Father, help us stay focused on You and not all the confusion and anger around us, especially when it has nothing to do with us. Lord, steer us away from backbiters, Liars, and Carnal minded Christians; so we will avoid strife. Lord, give us correction, direction, and reproof and make it our ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to our own business. Father, let us not be a busybody, who go around from person to person gossiping and talking about things that do not honor You or others. Father, we can't count our blessings and we fall short of Your grace, but we do believe; so help us grow in love and grace.  Lord, give us the wisdom when to have input and when to be silent in other people's business, in Jesus name Amen

PRAYING IN JESUS NAME

Praying in Jesus’ name is taught in John 14:13-14, “And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.” Some misapply this verse, thinking that saying “in Jesus’ name” at the end of a prayer results in God’s always granting what is requested. This is essentially treating the words “in Jesus’ name” as a magic formula. This is absolutely unbiblical.

Praying in Jesus’ name means praying with His authority and asking God the Father to act upon our prayers because we come in the name of His Son, Jesus. Praying in Jesus' name means the same thing as praying according to the will of God, “How do we know God's will, by His Words. The Jabez prayer, The Lord's Prayer and 23 Psalms are examples of praying in God's will. Ask anything according to His will, He hears us. (1 John 5:14-15). Praying in Jesus’ name is praying for things that will honor and glorify God

'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day 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 evil. For thou is the Kingdom the power and the glory forever Amen

LORD SAVE THIS LAND

Jeremiah 23:15 Therefore thus says the LORD of hosts concerning the prophets, 'Behold, I am going to feed them wormwood And make them drink poisonous water, For from the prophets of Jerusalem Pollution has gone forth into all the land.'"

We are depleted our resources such as air, water and soil; destruction of ecosystems; habitat destruction; the extinction of wildlife; and pollution all for the love of money and our entertainment. Our Oceans are filled with oil and plastics, even our food is coated with plastic. When does it end, where are we going to live, what will we eat or drink.


Father, we come to You asking You to intervene with the destruction of this world. Lord, anything that damage and pollute our water and food for Financial fain delete it. Lord, soften the hearts of those in government and help them understand the impact they're Abuse is having on our land. Lord, help us rescue the this earth, so precious in Your eyes. Father, help those that are elected to our environmental offices, protect our world and not prey on it, help them bring healing to our land. Lord, help us sow beauty to our land and not destruction. Father, touch the hearts of the rich that pollute our land for gain. Lord, help us understand we are United with every creature, so stop us from destroying the wilderness and wildlife. Lord, forgive us for not taking better care of this world and following short of Your mercy, grace, and favor. In Jesus name Amen

THANK YOU FOR KEEPING US

Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.

Lord, teaches how to live in peace with everyone and work at living a holy life. Teach us, to look after each other, so that none of us fail to receive the grace of God. Keep the poison and bitter roots of evil from corrupting us. Lord, keep us from immoral and godless living, keep us from compromising ourselves for money, gifts, or anything that brings dishonored to You. Lord, keep us from flaming fire, darkness, gloom, and the whirlwinds of this world. Lord, teach us how to fellowship with each other as angels in a joyful gathering. Father, we come to You who is the judge of all things, asking to receive righteousness and to be made whole. Thank You, for the new covenant between our Father and the people of this lost world.  Thank You, for the blood, which speaks forgiveness, love, and life. Lord we worship and praise in Jesus name Amen

GOD'S PROTECTION

Isaiah 54:17No weapon that is fashioned against you shall succeed, and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their vindication from me, declares the Lord.”

Sometimes God's protection comes in the form of peace, in the middle of confusion. Sometimes strength in the middle of despair. Sometimes God's protection comes as an ending to a friendship or relationships, because He has something better on the horizon. God's protection comes with His wisdom and the knowledge to use His Word in our lives

ACCEPT EACH OTHER LIKE CHRIST ACCEPTED US

Roman's 14:13 13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister.

Each of us will give a personal account to God for our sins. So our goals should be "cleaning up our act,"  Not focusing on condemning someone else. True believes don't condemn; but, they live in such away that it will cause a lost sheep, to follow them to Christ and not make them stumble and fall, with the obstacles of judgment.

Father, give us patience and understanding towards each other and help us not pass judgement, but encourage each others, with love and prayer.  Lord, let the lost and confused see Your light that dwells in us, so they will follow the path that leads to You. Father, develop our Fruits and Christ like character; that will help us live in complete harmony with all people.   Baptize us with Your Spirit, that give us strength, unity, and peace, then we can accept each other as Christ accepted us, with all our flaws.  Father, let all believers come together on one accord, with one voice, giving praise and glory to You and our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, Aman

ENVY

One of the quickest ways to discourage yourself is through envy, by comparing ourselves to others. When we think we're not smart enough, not rich enough, or good enough, it manifest in our lives. Now we all do this from time to time, even the rich and famous. Look at all the Plastic surgery, butt injections, Hair weaves, etc. Comparing ourselves to others is a form of envy and envy is a sin. Sadly sometimes these sins of envy get so deep, they have an adverse effects, and then we suffer the Consequences of that sin.

God, does not compare us to anyone, He says we are wonderful made; He think's we have enough education, talent, beauty, laughter, and Soul for His purpose

Galatians 6:4 4 Don’t compare yourself with others. Just look at your own work to see if you have done anything to be proud of.

Lord, thank You for keeping us through the night and waking us up in our right mind, with the right attitude.  Father, use us as we are to lift others up and build Your Kingdom, while Your Word, our faith and understanding help us grow in grace. Lotd, forgive us for glutton food that bring on sickness and obesity. Father, give us Your strength to control our appetites and develop better eating habit. Lord, in the end it will not matter how educated we are, how pretty we are or how rich we are, the only thing that matters is our faith and obedience. So, let Your thoughts be our thoughts and we will not evny or compare ourselves to others, only to Christ, who is wonderful made.  Father, baptize us in the Holy Spirit and put our glesj of envy to rest, in Jesus name Amen

GOOD MORNING DISCIPLES

The more Christ like we become, the less street like we want to be
