GOD PROMISE TO HUMANITY

The Law made us fear for our lives. The Covenant allows us to choose the conditional promises made to humanity by God. The agreement between God and our ancients, the Israelites, in which God promised to protect us if we are submissive to His Word. But, God knew we did not have the heart to keep His commandments, so He gave us grace. The unmerited mercy (favor) that God gave to humanity by sending his Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. 

Lord, Come into our lives; we believe You died for us to live. We believe You live eternally in heaven and in our hearts 💕. Cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and thank You for forgiving our sins. Move into our hearts and become our Lord and Savior. Thank You for Your sacrifice; we accept Your gift of eternal salvation. Father, we know our time here on earth 🌎 is in Your hands ✋. In your hands, O Lord, we humbly entrust our lives; in Your hands, deliver us now from every evil and bid our flesh rest. Thank You, Lord, for keeping us through another night, and thank You, in advance, for the peace and joy of this new day, in Jesus' name Amen

THE COMMANDMENTS IN PRAYER

"I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have any strange gods before Me.” “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain.”

Lord, let us not worship false gods and help us be monotheism, believing in one God. Father, we want to love You, with all our hearts, souls, and minds, so nourish our Fruit, so we will become more Christ like, never dishonoring Your name. Lord, surround us with like minded people, congregating together treating Sunday, as the Lord’s Day. Lord, let us obey our parents as children and care for them, when they become old. Father, we know there is a time to kill, but, killing an innocent person is murder. So, we ask You to persecute those who kill the innocent and forgive those who take the life of, an unjust aggressor, to preserve their own. Father, our human sexuality is so important, so give us Your strength; to be still and not commit sins, that brings dishonor to our bodies and You, Lord. Father, let us not steal and denounce cheating people out of their: money, property, depriving workers of their just wage, or not giving employers a full day’s work, for a full day’s pay. Lord, we put those that commit fraud, tax evasion, and vandalism, in Your hands, serve justice ⚖ in Your will. Lord, let us not lie intentionally or deceive another by speaking falsehood, against others. Father, let us never, have the feelings of envy, greed, and jealousy, in reaction to what other people have, so we do not hinder our blessings. Lord, continue working in and through us and help us live a righteous life, serving Your purpose and others, in Jesus name Amen 

FRIENDS IN NAME ONLY

The Word tells us " Anyone can claim to be our friend, but some people are friends in name only. Those are the people that are friends with you as long as things are going well and you are able to help them. But they will turn against us at the first sign of trouble or cross us to receive financial gain. They have wicked ways and will entangle you in them.

Father, You said, do not believe every spirit that comes to us. But test the spirits to see whether they are from You, for many false prophets have gone out into the world. Lord, please give us discernment when we choose our friends, let us see them through Your eyes. Lord, You also explained to us that "A person of many companions may come to ruin, so, keep our eyes on those that will stick closer than a brother or sister and remove everyone else. Lord, keep Your hedge of protection around us and keep those that are dishonest, back-bitters, jealous and envy, away. Remove those that keep up confusion and spreads strife, that separates close friends. Lord, surround us with like minded people and let Your thoughts be our thoughts. Father, give us spiritually wise friends, because "Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise, but the companion of fools will suffer harm". Thank You, Lord, in advance for removing all the demonic Spirits around us and we thank our enemies for making us stronger and better, in Jesus name Amen 

THE SPIRIT CAN CRUCIFY OUR FLESH

Titus 2:11-12 for the grace of God has appeared, teaching us that denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly

Lord, let the Fruit of the Spirit, crucify our flesh daily. Open our hearts and minds to Your wisdom and knowledge, to strengthen our faith and help us serve our purpose. Father God, thank You for loving us and accepting us just the way we were. It is our heart’s desire to know You and to be known by You. Help us live the life You’ve called us to and be faithful to You always. Lord, we are no longer conformed to this world, so, let us be transformed by the continuous renewing of our minds, that we may prove that which is good, acceptable, and perfect to You. Thank You, for a heart ❤ of forgiveness and a mind filled with wisdom, and the knowledge of how to implement, Your, power in our lives. Thank You, for Your patience and the courage to stand on Your Word, by practicing what we have learned. Thank You, for eyes that see things in the Spirit and allowing Your thoughts to be our thoughts. Thank You, for grace, favor, inspiration, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness, In Jesus name Amen

LET'S PRAY FOR THE INJUSTICES OF RACISM

Zechariah 7:9 thus says the Lord: execute true justice, show compassion to everyone. 7:10 Do not oppress the widow or the fatherless, the alien or poor. Let none of us plan evil in our hearts against our brothers and sisters 

Father, we ask for both forgiveness and conversion as we open our hearts and minds in communal prayer. Lord, Let us pray as we reflect on the injustices of racism. Father, the face of racism looks different today from how it looked in the past. So, today we gather in the love of God and neighbors to ask You, please dismantle racism. The racism in our hearts, and our world systems. Father, Dismantle Spatial Racism and help cure the devastating impact of massive economic disparities, between our communities and the isolating of people geographically according to race, religion, and class. Father, dismantle the Institutional Racism, that discriminate in our criminal justice system, employment, housing, health care, political power, and education. Lord, You and the world 🌎 know about the Environmental Racism. That affects the poor and the powerless most, Lord, they're suffering from harmful effects of pollution and poison water. Lord, soften the hearts of the big companies and the people of power, that are causing this deadly impact on our world and the people. Lord, search their hearts and filled them with compassion ❤ kindness ❤ and understanding ❤; as we reflect on some of the injustices, resulting from all forms of racism. Lord, please dismantle the hate and fears we harbor in our hearts for those that are different from ourselves and replace it with the first two commandments: we shall love the Lord our God with all our hearts, with all our souls and with our entire minds. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second is like it; we shall love our neighbor as ourselves. So, Your children who are called by Your name can dismantle racism, through our love and relationship, with You. In Jesus name Amen 

LISTEN 🎶 FOR HIS COUNSEL

Psalms 16:7 I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. 8 I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. 

God often gives us his counsel when we are quiet enough to listen to Him. Most times while in bed getting ready for sleep. We must be ready to listen at all times, because He may be ready to speak at any time.

Lord, keep us safe, for in You we take refuge. You are our Lord; apart from You we have no good thing. Lord, we are Your children, help us be noble in all Your delight. Let us not run after other gods, like the material things of this world, that only make us suffer more and more. Father, let us not pour out our Spirits to such gods or take up their names on our lips.  LORD, You alone are our portion and our cup; You make our life and homes secure. The boundary lines have fallen for us in pleasant places; surely we have a delightful inheritance, the same as Christ and we are so grateful 🙏.   Father, we will praise the You, who counsels us, even at night our hearts instructs us and thank You for keeping us. Lord, we will keep our eyes always on the You, with You at our right hand, we will not be shaken. So, let our hearts be glad and our tongue rejoices, and our bodies will also rest secure; because You will not abandon us to the realm of the dead, nor will You let Your faithful children see decay. So, Lord, make known to us the path of life; You have planned for us and fill us with joy in Your presence, in Jesus name Amen

WITH THE RIGHT ATTITUDE

John 15:4-5 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

Mary's attitude marked her as a woman mighty in spirit, and you too can have this trait, when you commit yourself to Christ. Ask Him to make you aware of anything that keeps you from sitting at His feet, in heart devotion. Pray for the Holy Spirit, to give you a deep love for God's Word. This is what Mary cherished the Word of God spoken to her. And it is our greatest source of comfort and hope.

Father, we confess that our attitude sometimes needs an adjustment. So we humbly come before You, asking You, to search our hearts and minds and remove all that is not of You. Thank You, Lord, for all You do, please give us a heart of appreciation. Thank You, Lord, for Your sacrifice, that restored us to the Father; and set us free from the bondage of our sins. Thank You, for the suffering, You endured for our sake, please give us that same strength, to endure suffering for Your sake. Father, let us be silent, so we can hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; because anger does not produce the righteousness of our Father. Lord, give us eyes that see the obstacles, that keeps us from sitting at Your feet and the wisdom and knowledge of how to remove them. So, we can cherished the Word of God spoken to us, with the right attitude. So, the Word will be, our greatest source of comfort and hope. In Jesus name Amen 

WE TRUST YOU

Recognize the Source - For the LORD gives wisdom; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding; Rest in the Source - Trust in the LORD with all our hearts, and do not lean on our own understanding, In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight our paths. Respond to the Source - Honor the LORD with our wealth and with the firstfruits of all our produce 

Lord, help us recognize that You are the source of true wisdom, knowledge, and understanding; and without You, we have nothing.  Father, we rest in the fact that You are always faithful. Father, we trust You, even when the waters have come up to our necks, we know You will not let us drown. Lord, we are weary from crying out to You and our throats are parched. Lord, our eyes grow dim, waiting for You. Lord, we have those who hate us without cause and want nothing more than to destroy us. Lord, let not our enemy attack us with lies, make them humble at our feet. Lord, restore us and help us obey, so we cast all our burdens on  You. So, when disappointments in our lives start to pile up all around us, help us trust You with all our hearts and not lean on our own understanding, or rely on ourselves. Help us seek You first, knowing that all the other things will be added unto us. In Jesus name we give honor to You, Amen 

LET HIS WILL BE DONE

God, will not cram us with so many facts, that we are forced to believe against our will. That would violate our free agency and leave no room for faith. God has ordained that we come to Him by faith 

Heb 11:6 But He does provide us with abundant evidence so that faith is resting on the credible promises of God

Father, teach us how to pray in Your will, help us be honest with You about what we want in prayer. But, also surrendering our lives and the outcome of our prayers request to You. Father, let our prayers align us with Your will more than our own desires.  Lord, thank You for the confidence that we have toward Your promise, that if we ask anything according to Your will, You will hears us. And if we know that You hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of You. Lord, let Your will be a shield around us, as we glorify You, who lifts our heads high. Thank You, for choosing our hearts 💕 to dwell in and Baptisting us with the Holy Spirit, so Your will can be done in our lives, in Jesus name Amen

FAITH OVER FEAR

Psalms 56:3 When I am afraid I put my trust in You.

Physicians, as everyone knows, are less subject to be attack by disease than anyone else, because physicians DO NOT FEAR DISEASE. Physician are without fear or hesitation when it comes to sickness, they have been known to physically be in contact with hundreds of people, daily, who were suffering from all kind of contagious diseases without becoming infected. Their immunity against disease consists, largely, but not solely, on their absolute lack of fear. Our fears or lack of fears will determine our financial, business; profession, or social destiny. God says have no fear.

Lord, You are not the source of fear and anxiety, that is Satan’s realm. Lord, let us not torment ourselves with worrisome thoughts or burden our hearts with fretfulness and unforgiveness. Lord, You, dwell in us, so we should not fear, because You are the God of courage and strength. So, weaken our flesh and give us power over our fears. Help us remember, when fears and anxiety comes that You are a good God, faithful and true and You will help us challenge our fears, with Your Spirit of courage and strength. So, fill us with life-building truth instead of destructive thoughts of fear. Lord, letYour courage and strength guard our heart and help us to focus on what the Holy Spirit is doing in our lives and starve the flesh. Thank You, that we are not alone in our fight against fear; we have the Holy Spirit and the angels, standing with us. Thank you, Lord, for helping us overcome our fears, in Jesus name Amen

PRAY IN HIS WORD

Lord You are our light and our salvation; whom shall we fear? Lord, You are the strength of our lives; of whom shall we be afraid? Father, when the wicked, even our enemies and foes, came upon us to eat up our flesh, they stumbled and fell. Though an host should encamp against us, our hearts shall not fear: though war should rise against us, in this will we be confident. For in the time of trouble You shall hide us in Your pavilion: in the secret of Your tabernacle shall You hide us; Lord, set us up upon a rock. Lord, now shall our heads be lifted up above our enemies round about us. Hear, us O" Lord, when we cry with our voices, have mercy also upon us, and answer us. Lord, hide not thy face far from us; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been our help; leave us not, neither forsake us, O God of our salvation. Teach us thy way, O Lord, and lead us in a plain path, because of our enemies.  Deliver us not over unto the will of our enemies: for false witnesses are risen up against us, and such as breathe out cruelty. So,, we wait on You, Lord: and be of good courage, and You shall strengthen our hearts, in Jesus name Amen.

NO MATTER WHAT BELIEVE

Sarah did not believe God when He said He would make Abraham the head of many nations through her a woman of 90 years. But nine months later God kept His promise to Abraham and a son was born (Gen. 18:14)

Things that we find impossible to do, God finds very easy to do. Especially when we have faith and stand on His Word. We do not have to understand how He will fulfill His promise to us, we have only to believe that he will.

Thank You, Lord, for helping us make it through this difficult year. Thank You, for Your hedge of protection that carried us through the uncertainty of deep waters, through the flames of trials, through the firey arrows of our enemies, through the pain of hard losses, and the betrayal of friends. Lord, we need Your grace, Your strength, Your courage, and Your love, that gives us power. Father, help us keep our focus on You and not the hate and destruction around us this season. Please Lord, forgive us for giving too much time and attention to other things and for looking to people before coming to You first. Thank You, Lord for saving us and giving us a new life of, peace, hope, joy, and favor. Thank You, Lord, that Your power is made perfect in our weakness, so help us stand on Your Word, especially when we are waiting or under attack with faith. In Jesus name Amen

UNITY WITH CHRIST HELPS US UNITE WITH EACH OTHER

Romans 15:6 That ye may with one mind and one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Unity among believers comes from our union with Christ

Lord, we are grateful that we can be a part of Your family. Help us, live in unity with our brothers and sisters in Christ, so that others may see Your goodness through us. Father, let Your Spirit of love override the hate and lies coming from our government, that You put in place to govern us. Lord, we ask You to bring order to Your house and remove all that is not of You. Lord, if there was every a time to pray, the time is now. So, deliver us from the striving of the people and make us the head of heathens. Lord, hear us in these times of trouble, save the people from the evil within and let not scare tactics weaken Your people. Father, we pray for unity in our Country today, as we come together on one accord, to rid our Nation of hate and division. Lord, we know, where two or more are gathered in Your name, You are with us. Father, bless and comfort those who have loss loved ones, give them joy knowing that they are at peace and we thank You in advance for receiving their souls. Lord, give us patience and help us be liked minded towards one another, according to Christ. So, we may with one mind glorify You and lift up each other. In Jesus name Amen
