DON'T LET PRIDE BE YOUR DOWN FALL

To those that think too highly of themselves, God HATES human pride. "God resists the proud but gives grace to the humble. The Word put pride among four things that God hates: "I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech." Says the Lord.


Father, we come to You, now asking You, to remove all those around us: that think too highly of themselves, those with lying tongues; those whose hands have shed innocent blood; those who have feet that are swift to run with evil, and especially those that devises wicked plans, against Your people. Lord, let them all reap what they sow, sooner than later.  Lord, search our hearts and minds and remove all pride that hinders You from using us for Your purpose.  Father, help us release ourselves, to give You room to move in our lives. Lord, help us understand, "When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with humility comes wisdom." LORD, let us detests proud of heart, the same as You, and let not, their pride go unpunished. Father, let us not be like those who insist on being right about everything and alienate family and friends.  Father, let not our insecurities, fears, and unworthiness be the root of pridefulness, in Jesus name Amen

CHANGE YOUR MINDSET

Mind your thoughts. "As we think, we change the physical nature of our brain. As we consciously direct our thinking, we can wire out toxic patterns of thinking and replace them with healthy thoughts." "Paul's words aren't new. "Change our mind" is the central theme of Jesus' first sermon."

Romans 12:3 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what the will of God is, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Father, let us not copy the behavior and customs of this world but let Your Word transform us into a new mindset by changing the way we think. So, we can receive Your, Son, and get to know Your will for us. Lord, help us live good and righteous lives, pleasing to You and in perfect peace. Lord, let Your thoughts be our thoughts to help change the way we think and our perspective, which changes how we act in this world. Lord, use our minds, like You did Abraham, so we can use the power of our minds and see the world like Christ. So our beliefs will align with Your purpose and Your promise. Lord, strengthen us where we are weak, heal us mentally, emotionally, physically, and Spiritually, to prepare us for what's to come. Lord, reveal the darkness around us by shining Your light that will fix it. In Jesus name Amen

LET'S PRAY FOR EACH OTHER

Romans 8:26 & 27 Likewise, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

We, give You those filled with hate, envy, and strife, search their πŸ’• and remove all that is not of You. Lord, let them desire the ways of the Spirit and not the flesh. Lord, let us reap what we sow, so help us practice what we have learned and do good unto others.

LEARN TO BREATHE SO WE ARE NOT QUICK TO ANGER

 "Refrain from anger, and forsake wrath! Fret not yourself; it tends only to evil." Because "Whoever is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a hasty temper exalts folly." 

 Father, help us refrain from anger and keep our focus on You? Lord, let us not constantly worry or be anxious about nothing, so we do not get tired of doing good because worry tends only to evil." "But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, God slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness." So, let us be slow to anger, so we will have excellent understanding at all times. Have mercy on us, Lord, when we are tempted and weak, Lord, please take away our fears and doubts and heal our Souls. Father, fill us with Your love and understanding by allowing us to only hear the Truth; that fills our hearts with the Holy Spirit and Spiritually change us. So, let our iniquities depart from us and hear our crystal and receive our prayers. Father, thank You for the Guardian Angels You assigned us that keep the πŸ”₯ arrows of our enemies from harming us. Continue to keep Your hedge of protection around our children and our children's children. Lord, pull the wool of the demonic Spirits around us and let our enemies be ashamed. Lord, we come together on one accord asking You to teach us how to breathe and be slow to anger because one minute of anger could cost us a lifetime of grief. So, open our hearts and minds to give You room to move, in Jesus' name Amen.

HOW GREAT YOU ARE

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

We have all experienced pain or hurt at some point in our lives; how did we handle it? Did it make us bitter or better? Everything that God allows in our lives prepares us for His purpose and work! The friend that betrayed us or that lie they told on us! The breakup that was not meant to be or getting fired from your job!   But, when the smoke clears from all the confusion, we look back over our lives. We are reminded of how God brought us through so many times before. So, why is it so hard to trust and seek Him in everything we do? Everything God allows to happen is designed for our good. So, be still, wait, listen 🎢 and Trust Him

Father, let us not be discouraged during suffering because suffering helps us grow in grace. So, we come before You, who gives us Salvation through our excepting Christ as our Savior to praise You in Your great glory. Thank You for keeping us through the night; thank You for your employment and the means of financial support and help. Thank You for  Shelter, clean water, food, and the small things that so many of us take for granted. Thank You for touching our hearts and filling them with the things of the Spirit. Father, let the Word cleanse our hearts and minds to give You room to move in and through us. Lord, come live in our hearts through our faith, so we can develop our Fruit of love. The love that gives us the power to 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, in Jesus' name Amen.

BODY SOUL AND SPIRIT (ALL)

Matthew 10:28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell.


We all consist of body, soul, and spirit. Our Souls bring to life our senses, desires, affections, and appetites. And our Spirits dwells in our hearts and that's the part of us that connects or refuses to connect, with God. Now the body is evident, but our Souls and Spirits are canceled, except to God.

Lord, we present our bodies to You as a living sacrifice, please make us Holy and acceptable to ours, Father.  Lord, let us not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of our minds.  Father, let our studies reveal Your will for us, so we will know what is good and acceptable to You. Lord, You are the reason for who and what we have become, so let us not,, think too highly of ourselves.  Father, give us eyes that see, so we will have sober judgment, according to the measure of faith that You, have assigned us.  So, help us love You with all our minds, bodies, hearts, and Souls, and may Your peace; sanctify us completely. So, we may be preserved blameless at the second coming, in Jesus name Amen
