BREATHE ON US

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

Lord, thank You for clearing our names and thank You for the Holy Spirit that help keeps us from slipping. Examine us, oh Lord, and mend us where we are weak and use us where we are strong. Thank You for pulling us out darkness and giving us another chance at life. Thank You for allowing us to feel Your presence and holding our hands as we walk through this valley of death. Thank You, understanding and clarity of what this world and the people has to offer, and steering us around them. Thank You for teaching us how to be in love and at peace with ourselves, through the Holy Spirit. Thank You that our cries do not land on deaf ears, and we are so grateful. Thank You for the order You have bestowed upon our lives, our homes, our children, our workplace, our marriages, and our relationship with You. Thank You for teaching us how to breathe and control our emotions. Thank You for good health and being in our right minds. Thank You for the provision Lord God food, shelter, clothing, and teach us how to be charitable with the Overflow. Lord, thank You for discernment so we don't gather with the wicked nor follow the bloodthirsty and money hungry men and women of the world. Thank You for letting Your Word teach, rebuke, correct, and train us in righteousness. Father, we  honor and praise You, as we move forward into another year, let everything part of You speak to us. In Jesus' name, Amen

LET'S PRAY

The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the faint, and he increases strength to him who has no might.

Lord, we worship You because You're our joy, strength, courage, comfort, healer, and You give us peace. A peace beyond our understanding, and we are grateful. Lord, we ask you to nullify, destroy, and cancel the devil's power over our lives and let our enemies get caught in their snares. Father, we come to You through the sacrifice of Jesus and according to Your promises. We ask for forgiveness and learn how to forgive genuinely. Lord, we pray for our first responders; give them traveling mercy in their comings and goings. Lord, bless and equip our teachers with the knowledge and tools they need to educate our children. Lord, keep us surrounded with spiritual soldiers who will help us with our walk. Hold our hands, Lord, and steer us around the obstacles ahead of us. Father, we ask You to destroy all wrong words and the power they carry as You tame our tongues. Father, rid us of any stress, fatigue, bad health, or anything that separates us from You. Thank You for renewing and refreshing our souls daily; in Jesus name, Amen 

SPIRITUAL WARRIORS

 Spiritual warriors are not what we think of as warriors. Spiritual warriors are not someone who fights because no one has the right to take another life. A Spiritual Warrior, for us, sacrifices themselves for the good of others.

• Darkness cannot drive out the darkness. Only light can do that. ...
• Dedicate Time Each Day for Spiritual Practice. ...
• Reign in the Senses. ...
• Stay Humble. ...
• Build Up Your Emotional Endurance. ...
• Practice Loving Kindness. ...
• Embrace the Five Agreements. ...
• Practice Non-Violence
• Courageous
• Patient
Spiritual Warriors are those who fight against the enemy, self-delusion. The oppressors, fears, and ignorance of this world cause unnecessary suffering.

Father, we come to You right now, Your unworthy servants, asking You for forgiveness and thanking You for Your mercy, grace, and favor, so much favor. Lord, right now, we are petitioning You on behalf of all our brothers and sisters in Christ who are suffering at the hands of their oppressors. Father, fill them with Your strength and courage to help them endure their suffering and punish those responsible for their pain in Jesus' name. Lord, we pray for the homeless and the services and people that assist them. Lord, bless them all with overflow to continue Your good work. Lord, open our eyes and the hearts of our politicians so we can resolve this fast-growing problem. Father, right now, there are so many depressed people, depressed over their living situations, their finances, and the political red tape of this world; Lord, help us. Give those that are dealing with this crippling disease hope, peace, and understanding to help them get through. 🙏 Father, teach us how to breathe when facing adversity, fears, and darkness so we can remain focused on You and not our problem. Lord, search our hearts and minds and change us inside out so we do not become religious fanatics but inward change men and women ready to serve Your purpose. In Jesus' name, Amen

THANK YOU FOR WISDOM AND THE KNOWLEDGE OF WHO YOU ARE

Lord, I have come so far in my Spiritual growth and physical life, and I am so grateful. I could have been dead, incarcerated, or still in darkness, so thank You for saving me, reaching down in the Marley clay, and pulling me into Your grace. Lord, thank You for allowing people to turn against me so I could separate myself from them and move forward with Your plan for my life. Thank You, Father, for justice for my son and for working behind the scenes in my favor. Let all their Souls rot away from the inside out, Lord; I will stand on Your Word that You're still fighting my battles. So, I will be Victorious and no longer a victim. Lord, thank You for peace that allows me to be alone and happy. Lord, I will wait on You because I have seen what people and the world 🌎 have to offer. Father, You have provided me with overflow, and I am grateful. You have surrounded me with family and friends who have my best interest at heart as I do theirs. Thank You for Your gift of salvation and grace that gives me hope, peace, and joy. Lord, I thank You for all I have to come and help me be a good Stewart with Your blessings. Father, because of who You are in me, I fall down in worship and adoration before You. Father, I praise You, glorify You, bless You, and give thanks to You. In Jesus' name, Amen

GOD'S FAVOUR IS ALL OVER OUR LIVES

The favor of God forfeits the failure of men. We're not lucky; we're favored because luck runs out, but God's favor will abide with us forever. God's favor is powerful. His favor can move a peasant from poverty to a palace. It will drive people out of our lives who should not be there and surround us with angels.

I have floated in water that drowned others. I have found my way in darkness, even with my eyes closed. I have been betrayed by those I thought were my friends, but I realized it was God's plan to move me to where I needed to be, and I am grateful.

May Your favor rest on us and establish the work of Your hands in us and for us. Lord, we pray the blessing of Psalm 84:11 over our lives today: "For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor; no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless." Father, wake our hearts each day to seek You first, and we thank You in advance for Your hedge of protection around us. Because of Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross, we come to You for forgiveness for our sins. Inspire us to turn and repent from anything threatening to separate us from You. Search our hearts, God, and renew the right spirit in us. We pray for Your favor to rain down on our lives, relationships, and friendships and spread like wildfire to everyone You have placed in our lives, from our spouses to our co-workers, church family, and those we pass in the grocery store aisles. Lord, help us be inward-changed men and women to help us stand on Your promises. In Jesus' name, Amen 

PRAYER FOR PURPOSE PARTNERSHIP

Romans 8:28 says, "And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose." 

We must have a purpose partner to grow; therefore, we must be evenly yoked. A purpose partner is someone honest and loyal to you. A purpose partner is a person who stands with you no matter what you're going through. A purpose partner will always put you first because when you're happy, they're so glad. A purpose partner will show you affection inside and out, no matter where. A purpose partner will be there when you're spiritually, mentally, or physically sick. A purpose partner will treat you like they wish to be treated.

Lord, we cry out to You, our Most High, to  fulfill Your purpose for us." So help us understand and see Your plan for our lives. Father, You have numbered our days and will meet every purpose You have for us. However, our choices and actions sometimes take us out of Your will, so we ask You to intervene and guide us back to Your oath of righteousness. Lord, You said it's not good to be alone; please order our steps towards the helper fit for us. Lord, give us eyes to see them from Your perspective so we don't look over them, and give us ears to hear Your instruction. Lord, we make many plans throughout our lives, but Your purpose will count for our lives. So, hold our hands as we walk through this valley of death to steer us around the obstacles ahead. Father, let our partnerships remain grounded in love and respect. Help us to recognize our organizations' diversity and unique gifts that complement each other. In the name of Jesus

MY BELIEFS AND I STAND ON THEM

I never challenge people about their beliefs, and I don't believe in religion. There is a higher source that we can tap into, and the source that I tap into is Jesus. I am 64 years old, and in 64 years, He has always been faithful to me even when I did not deserve it. If I pray for you, I pray to my God, my savior, and those who challenge me need to prove why I should follow or believe something else. Not because of what you read, not what you heard, but what you experienced. Because I shared my Jesus walking through my life. I saw him take me out of the darkness and bring me into the light. I saw him take betrayal and turn it into separation because I was not in the right place. He stripped me naked so I could only see him, and he made me understand that I had to bring him into my life, the center of my life. He clothed me with Grace, peace, and the Fruit of the Spirit that all hangs on the love that I have for him. And anybody who knows me knows the first person I speak to in the morning is Jesus. Throughout my day, the last person I talk to at night is Jesus. I'm not just a Sunday believer, but seven days a week. So I don't care what works for you, but I know what works for me, JESUS. Now, it's okay to challenge me, but never ever disrespect what I believe because I would never ever disrespect what you think. 💯 Now, I have cross-studied the Bible - King James Christianity. Qur'an - Islam, Gita - Hinduism (which was minimal because a friend at work taught me), and I was introduced to Torah - Judaism (by one of my clients). When you study them, you will find things in common, things omitted, and things changed to please man. This is why we must always pray before we read and ask God to only let us receive what is good because anything man has touched is flawed.

Father, we believe in Your Word, and help us with our unbelief. Breathe on us, Lord God. Help us develop our trust in You fully, without doubt, knowing that in You, all things are possible. Lord, hold our hands as we walk through this Valley of death and steer us clear of the obstacles ahead. Baptize us in the Holy Spirit that gives us steadfast faith as we cling to Your Son Jesus. So right now, Father, we humbly come to You for guidance, and grant us the fortitude we need to preserve throughout life. Lord, thank You for grace, mercy, forgiveness, and favor 🙏 so much favor. In Jesus' name, Amen 

PSALMS 121

Father, we lift our eyes to the mountains where our help comes from. Our Lord, the creator of heaven and earth, He will not let our feet slip, He who watches over us will not slumber; indeed, He who watches over Israel will not slumber nor sleep. He will watch over us. He is our shade at our right hands; the sun will not harm us by day nor the moon at night. The Lord will keep us from all harm. He will watch over our lives. He will watch over our comings and goings both now and always. Amen

KEEP THEM COVERED IN THE BLOOD

 Pray This Prayer Over Your Children

Lord, let no evil fall upon my son, Lord; intervene with every action of the enemy in the form of fights, in the form of relationship conflict, in the form of generations curses or any curses spoken over him, in the form of tribulation or financial difficulties, and in the form of addictions. I decree and declare right now that it is all broken and fall to the ground. Continue blessing my son and keep him covered by Your blood and by the anointing of Your protection. Father, lift my son up so he does not strike his foot on a stone. Let everyone Cornelius meets see his full potential and keep him humble. Lord, bless him with the Holy Spirit that empowers him to pursue righteousness and obedience and serve Your purpose, Father; give him eyes that see things from Your perspective and ears that hear Your instructions. Please, Lord, Shield him from the enemies' arrows; let them be broken and fall to the ground. Jehovah Rapha, I pray for healing over my son Cornelius spiritually, mentally, physically, and emotionally healing. Father, cleanse him in the blood of Jesus, wash away every demonic Spirit around him, and loose him from the darkness of this world as You hold his hand through this Valley of death. Lord, cover him with Your feathers, and under Your wings, let him find refuge and guide him in all his ways. In Jesus' mighty name. Amen

THE TONGUES OF THE RIGHTEOUS

The Spirit understands what we say. It doesn't determine if we're joking or speaking angrily, so watch what we say, especially to our children. If you keep telling a child, it will amount to nothing. You have just spoken a hostile destination over your Child. If you keep saying, "There are no men to be found,." Guess what? You won't find one; speak positive and use your words to bless you, your children, your family, your friends, and others.

Father, help us tame our tongues 👅 🙏 let our hearts be filled with the Holy Spirit when we speak and not anger. Let us not talk generally curses over our children, families, and friends. Instead, Lord, we prophesy prosperity,  good health, good stewardship, and peace in our lives and homes, in Jesus' name. We speak unity in our families, marriages, neighbors, community, and our leaders, Spiritual and physical, in Jesus' name. Lord, we are praying for those who were called home and those they left behind. Filled their hearts and minds with memories ♥️ comfort, and peace; hold their hands through this Darkness back into Your light. Father, keep our tongues from evil and our lips from telling lies. Lord, let our mouths be Fountains of Life, happiness, and joy,  in Jesus' name, amen.

PSALM 91

Lord, let us dwell in Your shelter, the shelter of the Most High. We will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. We will say of the Lord, "He is our refuge and our fortress, our God, whom we trust." Indeed, He will save us from the Fowler's snare and deadly pestilence. He will cover us with His feathers, and under His wings, we will find refuge; His faithfulness will be our shields and ramparts. We will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at our side, ten thousand at our right hand, but it will not come near us. We will only observe with our eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If we say, "The Lord is our refuge," our dwelling place, no harm will overtake us, and no disaster will come near our tent. For You will command Your angels concerning us, to guard us in all our ways; You will lift us up so that we will not strike our foot against a stone. We will tread on the lion and the cobra; we will trample the great lion and the serpent. "Because You love us," says the Lord, "You will rescue us; You will protect us, for You acknowledge our names. You will call on us, and we will answer You; You will be with us in trouble; You will deliver us, and we will honor You; with long life, we will satisfy You and show You our salvation." in Jesus' name, Amen. 

FELLOWSHIP SHOULD HELP US GROW NOT PUSH US AWAY

Many people miss the purpose of Fellowship because they don't understand we're all still sinners. Fellowship is a way to be encouraged and fed by the Spirit. When you don't have time at home, worship is acceptable. Still, God said in Hebrews, "Do not neglect to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing." So, stop expecting to find Perfect People in Church. They don't exist. People who attend Church are still sinners. The only difference between the people in the Church and those outside the Church is that we know we need God, and they haven't figured it out yet. We attend Church to worship God, not people. 🙏 Being in clicks was never the purpose of Fellowship. Fellowship is socializing with like-minded people and bonding as a family.

Father, let us not discourage each other and push lost sheep away from the Church by dealing with them in the flesh. Lord, Intervene in our hearts and minds so we see things from Your perspective when we address Your sheep. Let Your thoughts be our thoughts so we do not judge Your children. Father, help us witness, so give us ears that hear and follow Your instruction. Lord, bless those who have left the Church with the understanding they cannot live for people and be happy. Let them see You must be the center of their lives to accomplish happiness. Lord, help us receive the lost with open arms and the wisdom of how to lead them to You. Help us be of grace and mercy when we gather to worship and praise Your name. Lord, keep us focused on you, not the confusion around us. In Jesus' name, Amen

COMMON SENSE

My child, keep sight of common sense and discernment. Hang on to them, for they will refresh your soul.

Walking around like we are better because we have a degree. Just remember, common sense doesn't cost anything and can take us further in life than a degree.

Father, help us be doers of Your Word and not hearers only, deceiving no one but ourselves. Let us act on Your teachings with faith, and give us Your courage when we get weary so we will stand on Your promise. 🙏 Lord, right now, we pray for those suffering and struggling worldwide, especially here in our country, Lord God. Lord, give our political and spiritual leaders The Common Sense to see our damage to Your world and people. Give them ears that hear the people and the world crying for help. Lord, give them eyes that see it from Your perspective so we can turn this around before it's too late. Father, give us Spiritual Fruit, discernment, and Common Sense so we can implement You in our lives and the lives of others. Lord, let Your Word and Common Sense guide our lives so we will stay focused on You and the needs of others. In Jesus' name Amen 🙏

THEY NEED OUR HELP

Romans 5 3-5 Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; 4 perseverance, character; and character, hope. 5 And hope does not put us to shame because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

We have yet to learn what it is to not have; we may have missed a bill payment, a car note, or a mortgage payment. But only a few of us know what suffering is. For instance, not knowing where our next meal will come from or having to drink and bathe in the same water. Most of us have never been homeless or made to wear the same clothes for weeks. We have yet to learn what it's like to make our own shoes from the material we find on the sheets. Right now, many people are suffering financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, so we can jump right in and help with at least one of their needs. We all have enough to share with someone in need.

Lord, reveal the true meaning of our blessings; they're not to enhance our lives but for us to help improve others. Lord, teach us that the more we give, the more room we make for You to move in a mighty way 🙏 Father, let us not give for show but to bless others the way You bless us, in silence 🙏 Lord, we thank You for all the Spiritual Soldiers You surrounded us with and the Guardian Angels that keep the fiery arrows of our enemies from harming us. Thank You for a new day to get it right with You and others. Thank You for Your hedge of protection around our children, and our children's children continue to cover us in the Blood from the top of our heads to the soles of our feet. Touch our hearts with Your grace and give us eyes to see life from Your perspective and ears that hear Your instructions. Lord, we come to the altar with gratitude, praying for those in need and suffering worldwide. Father, we pray for those suffering right here at home who need our help. So, give us Your wisdom and the knowledge to implement You in our daily lives as we go out into this dark world 🌎 carrying Your light. Help us guide those lost to You, just as someone guided us. Lord, bless those that have gotten so overwhelmed that they are contemplating suicide. Lord, grab their hands, touch their hearts, let them know that they are not alone and it does get better in Jesus' name amen.

COVER TEACHERS AND CHILDREN IN PRAYER

Lord, cover our children and empower our educators and caregivers of our students before you. They are faced with unprecedented challenges. They must make decisions that require Your wisdom, understanding, and insight. When they feel overwhelmed, be present in their lives. May they never feel alone or abandoned. Strengthen them from within so that they might be a source of strength, confidence, and hope for our children. Most of all, we bring before You our children as they pursue their education and enlighten their minds. So, they may grow in grace and wisdom. In areas lacking, provide them with knowledge, understanding, counsel, and fortitude. Keep them safe from all illnesses and protect them from all harm. In the mlighty, unmatchless name of Jesus, we pray,

Amen

WE DON'T HAVE TO BE LONELY

Psalms 25:16 Turn to me and be gracious to me, for I am lonely and afflicted.

Loneliness can open us up to a deeper relationship with God. Just as solitude helps us hear Him speak to us. Being lonely is not always the absence of other people but an inner void. That can only be filled by the Spirit.

Father, we're no longer lonely because we've learned to live in the Spirit more than the Flesh. So, thank You for coming into our lives and showing us how to love ourselves and others. Thank You for contentment in where we are waiting patiently while You guide us through this Valley of death daily. Give us Your wisdom and knowledge when we witness for You, and give them eyes that see You in us and ears that hear Your instructions. Lord, let us not care about the things of this world because we brought nothing into this world, and we will not take anything out. So, fill us with the Holy Spirit that empowers us to pursue righteousness and obedience to You and gives us the strength to endure suffering and overcome our unbeliefs. Thank You, Lord, for being close to us when we are lonely, brokenhearted, and crushed in Spirit. In Jesus' name Amen

STRENGTHEN OUR FAITH

Without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who believe.

When we see Christ's power in the lives of others, it strengthens our faith. I told someone they should not purchase a car because God keeps telling me He will provide. They looked at me and said you said many things that manifested in my life but a car Rose. My response was that's the message I got. About a month later, this person received the job with the car. When they called and told me I was driving, I had to pull over and give God some praise because, right at that point, my faith was strengthened.

Let the Spirit fill us with joy and peace as Your Word strengthens our faith and helps us overcome our unbeliefs. Thank You for allowing us to see Your blessings of others 🙏 and giving us hope. Thank You for revealing Who You Are in us and giving us a purpose in this Valley of death. Help us witness Your goodness daily, so baptize us with the Holy Spirit that empowers us to pursue righteousness and obedience. Thank You for giving us eyes that see from Your perspective and ears that hear Your instructions. Thank You for calming the confusion and keeping us safe and focused on You. Lord, You are our Savior, and our strength comes from You, and we are so grateful. In Jesus' name Amen

WE MUST FELLOWSHIP

Hebrews 10;24-25. And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds, not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing but encouraging one another and all the more as you see the Day approaching.

God wants us to Fellowship because He understands large Gatherings' impact on us. When we come into Spiritual groups, we tend to share love and assets with people we don't know lovingly. When we are connected in the Spirit, God is in the midst, so we experience His transforming powers and the grace He shows us we show to others. So, come together in prayer, Worship, praise, and fellowship to give God room to move in our hearts 💕

Father God, thank You for allowing us to experience a connection with You and others when we fellowship. Let us unite joyfully so we walk together in Your light to live out Your truth to "fellowship with others so the blood can purify us of our sins." Lord, You said, "Connect with fellow believers to avoid spiritual isolation. Through such bonds, we can inspire others to love and perform good deeds." Lord, when we come together, cleanse our hearts and minds and let us focus on the thing of the Spirit and leave judgment, jealousy, envy, hate, back-biting, and strife outside. Let us come together in solemn remembrance, Worship, rejoicing, and peace before our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ 🙏 Amen.

THE ONLY PERSON THAT WILL BE WITH US FOREVER IS GOD

"The Lord Almighty will reign gloriously. And we will be partakers in the splendors of the latter days, whatever they may be, and so we will be with the Lord forever."

Family will forget you, friends we'll forget you, and even your enemies will forget you, but God is always with us through life and death. When we are called home, it hurts all our family members and friends for a while, but as the days turn into weeks and weeks become months, the memory of us will fade. Everything in this world will be forgotten people, places, and things. The only thing that people do remember is God. Even in a demented and Alzheimer's state, people still remember God. So while I'm sitting here meditating on life and situations that I've been through with death, I know God is the only thing that will matter at the beginning and the end.

Father, thank You for Your love and grace that neither death, nor life, nor thing present, nor things to come can separate us from You. Lord, teach us to observe all that You command of us and keep our life free from the love of money. Even though we walk through this Vally of death daily, we will not fear because You hold our hands.  Father, help us keep Your dwelling place clean to give You room to move in and through us. Lord, let us not get caught up in the glam and excitement of this dark place but stay focused on You and Your glory.  Lord, teach us how to walk, glorify You, and help others as we diligently seek You. In Jesus' name, Amen.

GOD HAS YOUR DESTINY PLANNED OUT

Ephesians 2:10 We have become his poetry, a re-created people that will fulfill the destiny he has given each of us, for we are joined to Jesus, the Anointed One. Even before birth, God planned our destiny and the good works we would do to fulfill it!

God changed Ruth's destiny from poverty to wealth. Joseph's atmosphere shifted his destiny from slave to prime minister of Egypt. David's value increased when his destiny turned from a shepherd boy to a king. God can and will shift the atmosphere around us, improve our value, and change our destiny.

Father, thank You for pulling us out of the pit of darkness and leading us to Your never-failing light. Lord, thank You for being Who You are in us and through us. Thank You for shifting our atmosphere and changing our destiny. Thank You for teaching us how to breathe and control our emotions that overwhelmed us with worry and fear. Thank You for strengthening our faith and keeping us still to give You room to move mighty. Thank You for supporting us through the night, and thank You in advance for the hedge of protection around us today, especially our children and our children's children. Lord, shift our atmosphere. Let Your thoughts be our thoughts So we do not waver. Thank You for eyes that see things from Your perspective and ears that hear Your instructions around the obstacles ahead. Thank You for helping us bear our cross daily ❤️ in Jesus' name, Amen 🙏
