WHERE ARE OUR LEADERS AND WHY ARE THEY SILENT

T

here are so many people in pain, and there so many people that are capable of helping, BUT DON'T. Imagine what would or could happen if we function the way God created us too, helping and caring for the least of them. Unfortunately, people are so full of darkness, insecurities, acceptance, low self-esteem and no hope of a better tomorrow, most have given up.  It fills my heart with pain and sorrow, to know our children as young as six are having sex and our youth have no respect and no guidance.  Our young men and women are being killed at an alarming rate, and no one seems to care. We have the largest prison system in the world; now we are building private own prisons, which mean more and more people will get locked up for longer periods of time.  And ninety percent of the evil and pain in this world is because of hate and the hunger for power and the love of money. 

Churches are operated like a business instead of a Sanctuary; Pastors are living like rock stars, while souls are being condemned. Neighborhoods and community are falling apart, while gentrification and high taxes are pushing seniors out of their homes, and the lack of jobs makes our future look bleak. Our Political and Community Leaders are only concerned with their agendas once they are elected, they sell out for money or a better position; while the people they are supposed to serve continue to perish.  So what does the Bible say about this subject?  Where is God and how does He help us when life throws these curve balls at us and our struggles get stacked on top of another.  In times like these are we to cling to the phrase “God won’t give you any more than you can handle”," No, the phrase God won’t give us more than we can handle” is referring to temptation, not life situation.  So do we tighten our belts, take a deep breath and push forward, despite how we really feel?  And when we have poured out all aspiration and at the end of our ropes; should we conclude that either God has let us down and not kept His Word, or are we just too weak to fight?

There is a Biblical answer found in Corinthians 1:8 "We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired life itself.  9 Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death.  But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.  10 He has delivered us from such a deadly peril, and he will deliver us again.  On him, we have set our hope that he will continue to deliver us, 11 as you help us by your prayers.  Then many will give thanks on our behalf for the gracious favor granted us in answer to the prayers of many."

But to activate God's promise, we must have faith and trust in Him and His promise.

Father, let us change the negative energy in our homes and atmosphere to positive, by praying together and lifting each other up and not tearing each other down.  Father, help us overhaul our lives one problem at a time; and discard everything that is not productive so we can move forward.  Jesus, let us be mindful of the time and energy we direct toward worrying,  about the things out of our control; and trust in You, so we do not grow weary trying to carry the load.  Lord, each morning You allow us to see, we will establish a "go with the flow" attitude within ourselves and let Your Word nurture us through the various situations that arise.  Lord, we will see each moment of each day as an opportunity to share Your love and goodness with every person that crosses our path, in Jesus name, Amen

LORD WE SURRENDER ALL TO YOU

Galatians 2:20 "we have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer we who live, but Christ lives in us; and the life which we now live in the flesh we live by faith in the Son of God, who loved us and gave Himself up for us.

 Although God is a loving and forgiving God, we must know and understand that He is serious about everything He tells us. God established His rules with the knowledge of 100% certainty that His way is the best way, and we must follow His Word and make it a part of our daily lives. Under the New Covenant, we are judged by our hearts, even though we are still sinners in our hearts where God's Word reside is how we are judged.  When we harbor hate, covetousness, greed, envy, and jealousy we will be judged for those sins.   When we have greed in our hearts, we tend to do anything for money which is normally a sin.  When we envy or covet what others have, we will commit adultery, steal, or even commit murder to get what we want. 

Father, since we are judged by what's in our hearts, please take residence in our hearts and remove all that is not of You; and replace it with the things of the Spirit, so we can be baptist in the Holy Spirit and compelled to obey You.  Lord, let those who have wronged anyone for greed, envy, hate, or jealousy; let them be punished and give us the strength and courage to forgive them, so we too will not fall into judgment.  Father, strengthen our faith so we will believe that You are before all things and in You, all things hold together; then we can trust and know that You have everything under control.  Lord, help us get rid of the toxic sludge that fuels our fears and worldly desires; so we can surrender our hearts and be filled with Your love, grace, and mercy.  In Jesus name Amen

WE WANT TO BE DISCIPLES

Acts 1:8 But we will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon us, and we will be witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.”

We are going to start being disciples not just believers, let's start with something simple like no more gossiping, lying, stealing, or back-bitting.  Let's stop comparing ourselves to other, let start studying the Word daily, praying without, fellowship with other believers, praising and worshiping God for His goodness.

Matthew 28:19-20 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age

Lord, You are the source of mercy and compassion, please weave Your Spirit into the fabric of our lives.  Father, remove our desire for the world and give us eyes that see Your vision for our lives.  To become Disciple so we can receive a reign of justice and compassion that will renew us and the world around us.  Father, let Your Word transform our lives so we may accomplish Your purpose.  Anoint us with the character of Christ, so we can bring the good news to the oppressed, bind up the brokenhearted, and proclaim freedom from sin and this dark world.  Give us kindness and gentleness toward the hungry, the naked, and the homeless; let us reach out to those whom no one else will touch, to accept the unacceptable and embrace the enemy.  Father, help us become Disciples, surround us with Your love, fill us with Your grace and strengthen us for Your service, in Jesus name Amen.

Nicole C. Mullen - My Redeemer Lives

Our Redeemer lived the life of every man and woman who will ever be created by the Hand of His Father.  He developed a most literal and deep comprehension of the human condition which men were, and still are, to endure inside and outside of themselves in their daily dealings.  Jesus, Son of the Almighty and Who is One with Him, had to become fully human in order to completely experience and exhaust, in Himself, the understanding which God could not really and truly fulfill, as He being Infinite and Perfect Creator had never endured, in mortal flesh, the constraint of being detached from His Own Self while in the form of a creature. 

Lord, we love You, Lord, our strength.  Lord, You are our rock, our fortress, and our deliverer;  Our God, You are the rock, in whom we take refuge,  Our shield against the firey arrows of our enemies and the horn of our salvation, our stronghold.  We call to You Lord, who is worthy to be praised, who has saved us from the darkness.  In our distress, we called on the Lord and from His temple, He heard our voices, and saved us.  Father, thank You, making us inward changed men and women and not just religious fanatics.  Thank You, for developing out Fruit of the Spirit and helping us become more Christ-like; more humble, loving, kind, gentle, faithful, joyful, and giving us peace.  Thank You, Lord, for forgiveness and giving us the strength and courage to forgive, in Jesus name, Amen

OUR SOULS NEED NOURISHMENT EVERY DAY

John 6:51"I am the living bread that came down out of heaven; if anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread also which I will give for the life of the world is My flesh."

Our bodies need food every day, and our soul’s needs to be fed every day too.  The problem is that many of us neglect to give our souls the nourishment it deserves.  We put our work, our kids, or even our friends ahead of our soul and that ends up getting us into trouble.  Our Souls are at daily warfare and if we do not nourish our Souls daily it will get weak, and that’s when the Devil attacks us when we are weak.

Hebrews 5:12-14 For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you have need again for someone to teach you the elementary principles of the oracles of God, and you have come to need milk and not solid food.

 Father,  feed our hearts and minds with the things of the Spirit; so we will crave the things that honor and please You, and not the things of this world.   Thank You, for giving us  the same Dominion of authority over our lives, in the Spiritual realm. Thank You, for giving us the same free will to choose life over death, by choosing Christ as our Savior.  Thank You, that we Are All Made in Your Spiritual Image, it's what we feed our Soul, that's helps us develop.  Lord, help us not feed our hearts with Man image of life so will not be filled with greed, division, pride, envy, jealousy, and hate.  Baptist us in the Spirit so we will strive to follow Christ; by practicing what we've learned from our study, prayer, fasting, fellowship, worship, and praise.  Father, we learned that if we want Your forgiveness, we too must forgive.  We learned that through the love we have for Christ and the unconditional love You have for us we can love those who wronged us, yes our enemies.  You're, Words have transforming powers and if we are in it enough it will change us too.  Lord, help us develop fruit and Christ-like character so we will fellowship with others, pray without ceasing, teach Your Word to our children and our children's children, witness to others, and attend Church like Christ.  Never judging anyone, but praying for people instead of talking about them.  Let us have a kind and gentle heart for the least of us and love helping our widows and orphans.  The more we act like Christ the more we develop His character and become the disciple You need to serve Your purpose. Amen

TEACH US HOW TO LOVE ALL

Luke 6:27-36  27 “But to you who are listening I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you.

Father, right now all we want is You, You are our reward; everything else is short-lived; if we have not stored up treasures of heaven we have nothing, in Jesus name.  Father, open our hearts and minds to forgiveness with kindness and gentleness so we can become true servants of Christ and others.  The Bread of Life sent down from glory, a Holy King who came to serve, and those that follow Him are servants.  Servants, to those who cannot speak for themselves, Servant for the call to justice for the unjust, Servant for the widow and orphans; servants for the lost.  Father, help us understand we cannot pick and choose who we help or serve, but treat all the same.

Luck 6:32-42 32 If you only love the lovable, do you expect a pat on the back? Run-of-the-mill sinners do that. 33 If you only help those who help you, do you expect a medal? Garden-variety sinners do that.34 If you only give what you hope to get out of it, do you think that's charity? The stingiest of pawnbrokers do that. 35"I tell you, love your enemies. Help and give without expecting a return. You'll never - I promise - regret it. Live out this God-created identity the way our Father lives toward us, generously and graciously, even when we're at our worst. 36 Our Father is kind; you be kind. 37 "Don't pick on people, jump on their failures, criticize their faults - unless, of course, you want the same treatment. Don't condemn those who are down; that hardness can boomerang. Be easy on people; you'll find life a lot easier. 38Give away your life; you'll find life given back, but not merely given back - given back with bonus and blessing. Giving, not getting, is the way. Generosity begets generosity." 39 He quoted a proverb: "'Can a blind man guide a blind man?' Wouldn't they both end up in the ditch? 40 An apprentice doesn't lecture the master. The point is to be careful who you follow as your teacher. 41 "It's easy to see a smudge on your neighbor's face and be oblivious to the ugly sneer on your own.   42 Do you have the nerve to say, 'Let me wash your face for you,' when your own face is distorted by contempt? It's this I-know-better-than-you mentality again, playing a holier-than-thou part instead of just living your own part. Wipe that ugly sneer off your own face and you might be fit to offer a washcloth to your neighbor, let us put Your Lord, back in our schools, jobs, Churches, Homes, and our lives.  LORD, I HAVE LEARNED HOW TO FORGIVE, DEAL WITH MY ENEMIES AND MOVE ON BECAUSE I KNOW THERE IS A GOD WHO FORGAVE ME, SO I TOO MUST FORGIVE, in Jesus name Amen

LET GOD BE THE FIRST PERSON WE SPEAK TO IN THE MORNING

Luke 1:78 A new day will dawn on us from above because our God is loving and merciful.  Romans 15:13, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope."

Father, as we are blessed to see a new day, we ask that You help us examine the various aspects of our lives: the physical, emotional, intellectual, Spiritual, professional, and financial; help us identify the things that are not of You, and replace them with the things of the Spirit.  Lord, teach us how to master our moments of decisions through prayer and guidance from You.  Father, let Your Word remind us daily that it is no longer us who live, but You in us and help us act accordingly.  Lord, let us be mindful that money and possessions are useless if we are not using them to build up Your Kingdom and help others.  Father, let the Word teach us how to become a better version of ourselves and let us not be driven by compulsion; but guided by the Spirit, through self-control.  Father, let us change the negative energy in our homes and atmosphere to positive, by praying together and lifting each other up and not tearing each other down.  Father, help us overhaul our lives one problem at a time; and discard everything that is not productive so we can move forward.  Jesus, let us be mindful of the time and energy we direct toward worrying,  about the things out of our control; and trust in You, so we do not grow weary trying to carry the load.  Lord, each morning You allow us to see, we will establish a "go with the flow" attitude within ourselves and let Your Word nurture us through the various situations that arise.  Lord, we will see each moment of each day as an opportunity to share Your love and goodness with every person that crosses our path, in Jesus name, Amen

GOD WILL KEEP HIS PROMISE

Proverbs 21:15 When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers.  Amos 5:24   But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

This is my son Eddie who was murdered for money in June 2017, please pray with me for justice.

Jehovah-Jireh our provided we come to You in the name of Jesus, praying for justice for my son Eddie.  Lord, we come to You because without You there will be no Justice and we know that if we have the faith of a mustard seed justice will be served.  So we come to You in faith asking You to serve justice to those who killed my son and those who paid for the killing, in Jesus name.  Father, thank You, for comfort through this evil situation, and we know in Your time we will have peace.  Lord, our God, if we have wronged anyone, if we have betrayed a friend without cause we ask for forgiveness.  Father, we know You are a righteous God who judges our thoughts and actions.  Stop the wickedness of evildoers and persecute them for all the harm, pain, and murders they have caused.  Lord, You know all the wicked people who think up evil; they plan trouble and practice deception.  Father, let the traps they set for others, they themselves get caught, so they are punished by their own evil and are hurt by their own violence.  Father, let my son's murder haunt them for the rest of their lives so they will have no peace; and search my heart and remove anything that hinders justice in Jesus mighty name, Amen

Deitrick Haddon - Well Done

Matthew 25:22 Then the servant who had received two talents also came and said, ‘Master, you entrusted me with two talents. See, I have gained two more.’ 23 His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Enter into the joy of your master!’ 24 Finally, the servant who had received one talent came and said, ‘Master, I knew that you are a hard man, reaping where you have not sown, and gathering where you have not scattered seed

Father, we rise above defeat and all thoughts of fear; we will be the head and no longer the tail because when we know better we do better. So, thank You, Lord, for helping us do better by supporting ourselves by supporting each other.  Lord, dominate the wedges that drive division and separation among us so we can join together in harmony to accomplish one goal; building economic development, to create jobs and income for everyone.  Lord, remove those who think too highly of themselves because there is no room for conceit, egos, or hate in a team or growth; so Lord, keep us humble and in Your will, so we will stay focused on the purpose, Your will.  Father, open our hearts and minds, baptize us in the Holy Spirit that compels us to obey and walk in righteousness; so we can hear You say, well done good and faithful servant.  In Jesus name, Amen

IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS

God delivered us out of Egypt, but that was not enough when times got tough we wanted to go back to the old way.  God feeds us from the sky and the ground for forty years, we never went hungry, but that was not enough, we complained about eating the same things.  God, provided for all our needs, our shoes and clothes lasted forty years; but that was not enough, we complained about not having anything to wear.  God, saved us from the elements and wild animals, but that was not enough.  Today God has provided for all our needs but that's not enough, so tell me when is enough-enough for us to be grateful.   Thankfulness should be a way of life for us, naturally flowing from our hearts and mouths for God goodness.


1 Thessalonians 5:18 in everything give thanks; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.  1 Chronicles 16:34 O give thanks to the LORD, for He is good; For His lovingkindness is everlasting

Lord, we give praise to God for His deliverance. Father, “we will exalt You, O Lord, for You lifted us out of the depths and did not let our enemies gloat over us. O Lord our God, we call to You for help and You healed us. O Lord, You brought us up from the grave; You spared us from going down into the pit. You turned our wailing into dancing; You removed our sackcloth and clothed us with joy, that our hearts may sing to You and not be silent. O Lord our God, we will give You thanks forever” Father, we give You thanks for all circumstances, in Jesus name Amen (Ps. 30)

Fred Hammond & RFC - You Are the Living Word

Hebrews 4:12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.

Father, Your Word gives us correction, guidance, and every lasting life and we are so grateful.  Lord, thank You for dressing us in full body armor so we can stand firmly on Your Word.  Lord, thank You for the buckle of truth, so we have wisdom and knowledge so we can witness the Truth to others.  Father, thank You, for our breastplate the leads us to the path of righteousness and allowing our feet to be fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace.  Thank You, Lord, for our shield of faith that baptist us in the Holy Spirit and extinguish all the firey arrows of our enemies and the evil one.  Thank You, Lord, for the helmet of salvation that delivered us from the power of sin and the sword of the Spirit, which give us Christ-like character, in Jesus name, Amen

THE BLOOD OF JESUS

Revelation 7:14 I said to him, "My lord, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation, and they have washed their robes and made them white in the Blood of the Lamb. 1 Corinthians 11:25, In the same way, He took the cup also after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in My blood; do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me."

We confess our sins and ask for forgiveness and the strength to repent and turn away, so we will be forgiven.

Father, we plead the Blood over all these senseless killings by terrorism, law enforcement, and each other. Lord, You give believers the authority to trample over the enemy's power, and nothing shall hurt us. Lord, we intervene and claim that control over our young people; right now, in the name of Jesus, help us save them. Father, there is no help from man, so we come to You on bending knees crying for help. "Save our young people, our country, save our lives." Lord, we say a special prayer for all who have lost their loved one to violence, war, diseases, and sickness; and we thank You in advance for justice for those murdered and punishment for those responsible. Father, we ask that You give them rest and peace of mind, knowing their loved one is sitting at Your feet. Lord, bless our Political and Spiritual Leaders with Your wisdom, knowledge, compassion, and love for the people. Help them see that we are better together, working as a unit on one accord to save the future, our children, and this world. Lord, we ask that You continue to work with law enforcement, give them compassion, understanding, and love for all they come in contact with, and keep Your hedge of protection around them. Father, continue working in and through us to teach, guide, and protect our children. Lord, help us to become communities and neighborhoods that work as a village and raise our children as we were instructed to do "by Your Word." Lord, we plead the Blood of Jesus over our and our children's children. In Jesus' name, we pray Amen

U-understanding our differences N-never give up I-imperative that we educate ourselves T-trust in God Y-your true value

 A relationship with Christ is a time of sharing and enjoying the fruit of our labor, and recommit ourselves to a better life for our families and communities. Through unity, self-determination, collective responsibility, cooperative economics, purpose, creativity, and faith, this is what we should be teaching our children.

Let us pray for the courage to speak His Word in truth, and let our actions line up with our walk.  Let us pray that we have eyes to see and ears to hear,  His wisdom to implement His knowledge in our lives. Let us pray, for our suicide and death rate of young men, to decrease, as well as the loss of jobs, and shelters.  Let us pray for unity, peace, and love for God’s Word and each other.

Lord, let our words and action prove worthy of Your calling, with all humility, gentleness, and patience.  Father, give us forbearance for each other; as You have given mercy and patience to us, for the opportunity of repentance.  Lord, help us be diligent with preserving our Spirits in peace.  Father, help us understand that we are one people, with one Lord; so we will not be separated,  and divided, because of color, religion, and misguided beliefs.  Lord, walking with You is filled with day to day struggles;  equip us with the tools we need and remove all doubt and fears.  Lord, strengthen our self-determination and remove all self-worth; so can work in unity and help ourselves.  Lord, give us compassion, love, and kindness so we will be collectively responsible for each other.   Father, help us with our Cooperative Economics, teach us the operating principles to meet our needs, by empowering ourselves.  Father, let us come together and utilize each other's creativity; to build our neighborhoods, communities, give us the faith of Daniel so will stand on Your Word without wavering.  Lord, take control of our lives and order our steps in Your will, as we mature in Spirit. Father, as we go through this week of Kwanzaa; help our people understand that we are better together, in Jesus name, Amen

LET THE WORDS OF MY MOUTH

Stop saying people made you chose your actions, the only person in control of your actions is you; so lean self-control, through studying the Word.  The more we study the deeper our relationship grows, then His Word will start to make sense; as your fruit develop, so will your understanding.  Disciples of Christ developed self-control, by practicing what they had learned from their studies.  The more we study, worship, fast, witness and praise the more we nourish our fruit that develops Christ-like character.  Then we are able to tame our tongues, control our anger, forgive those who wronged us and show them, love, like Christ, loves us.   When we get close enough to Christ we free ourselves from the flesh and the world’s influences.  Remember to look out for those in need so they can see Christ through us.

James 1:26 If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridled not his tongue, but deceived his own heart, this man's religion is vain. 27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.

Father, give us a strong desire for Your Word, let it baptize us in the Holy Spirit; so we will be compelled to obey You, and walk in righteousness. Lord, teach us how to pray, by asking for the things of the Spirit and search our hearts to remove all that is not of You.  Father, give us the faith of Daniel and the will of Christ so we can become Disciples.  Lord, help us tame our tongues, let the words of our mouth bring honor to You and respect to ourselves; only lifting others ups as well as Your Kingdom.   Lord, open our hearts and minds and fill us with love, compassion, kindness; so we will not be self-righteous, prideful, or think too highly of ourselves, but stay humble and not be influenced by the flesh or the world, always sharing our blessings, in Jesus name, Amen.

Donald Lawrence - the blessing of Abraham

The Gospel taught by Jesus and the apostles were not fundamentally different from what was understood by Abraham. God, through the Scriptures, "Preached before the gospel unto Abraham" (Gal. 3:8). So crucial are these promises that Peter started and ended his public proclamation of the Gospel with reference to them (Acts 3: 13,25).If we can understand what was taught to Abraham, we will then have a very basic picture of the Christian Gospel. There are other indications that "the gospel" is not something which just began at the time of Jesus:-

- "We declare unto you glad tidings (the Gospel), how that the promise which was made unto the (Jewish) fathers, God hath fulfilled" (Acts 13: 32,33).

- "The gospel of God, which he had promised afore by his prophets (e.g. Abraham, Gen. 20:7) in the holy scriptures" (Rom. 1:1,2).

- "For this cause was the gospel preached also to them that are dead" (1 Peter 4:6) - i.e. believers who had lived and died before the first century.

- "For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them" (Heb. 4:2)- i.e. Israel in the wilderness.

FRIENDS

Dear Lord Jesus, we come to You with a heart full of sadness, knowing that our dear friends have gradually been drawn back into the world and seems to have forgotten the commitment that they made to Christ, some time ago, and all that He has done at Calvary to save us from our sins. Father, we neither know what to say or what to do to help, but we seem to be drifting further and further apart, almost to the point that there is a barrier erected between us. Oh Lord, our hearts are so sad and we ask You for Your grace and mercy to help in this time of need. Look down on our dear friends and we pray that you would reach down and turn their hearts back to You. Lord, we know that this must grieve Your heart so much more than our and so, by Your grace. We pray that whatever it takes that You would draw them back to Yourself - we ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour, Amen

GOOD MORNING LORD

G

ood morning Lord, thank You for another day. A day of health, life, and peace; help us to honor You today with our actions and love for others.  Father, let us be a witness of the goodness of You; fill us with the Holy Spirit so we will not grieve You.  Thank You for Your Word, that gives us guidance, and Your armor that gives us protection.  Father, thank You, for the Holy Spirit, that gives us strength through our faith and beliefs, which helps us develop Fruit and helps draw near to Thee.  Father, give us The Spiritual Fruit of forgiveness, which will lighten our load and give us freedom.  Father, give us the Fruit of kindness and gentleness so we do not mistreat others or be too prideful but, think lowly of ourselves over others.  Father, help us not worship material things that will pass away but, store up things of the Spirit that will help lift others and help build up Your Kingdom.  Father, help us save our children and our children’s children; encourage us to teach them Your Word and let our testimony to them, remove some of the obstacles they will face.  Lord, let us live a life that is spiritually contagious to our children and others as we follow You with praise and worship to the path of righteousness. Father, give our families and friends guidance through this day and protection from the enemy.  Lord, let not hate or strife enter our hearts and minds but keep us focused on You and let us have a peaceful day, in Jesus name, Amen

BUILD UP

Isaiah 57:14 and it will be said, "Build up, build up, prepare the way, Remove every obstacle out of the way of My people.

Jehovah Jireh, our Provider, bless us, guide us and protect us, and thank You for another day. Bless those we come into contact with today and allow us to be a blessing in their lives, so when they look at us they will only see You shining through.  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 build up Your Kingdom and each other, in Jesus name, Amen

WORK AND BUSINESS PRAYER

Peter 4:10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.

Father, bless our places of work and we declare success in business today and every day. Let our businesses be of great service to others, flourishing through decency, honesty, and respect for our colleagues and customers.  Lord. give us wisdom and calm so that we can rightly access every situation and bring peace and productivity to the work environment and our businesses.  In Jesus name, Amen

Trinitee 5:7 - God's Grace

God’s grace is amazing. Developing a consistent attitude of gratitude toward Him is key in navigating this life with minimal anxiety. Learning how to lead yourself, your family and others through adversity is a critical calling for next-generation leaders. Being able to see God’s hand in circumstances, interpret His will and the lessons He’s teaching, and then to communicate what He shows you in a way that gives peace and confidence
