Praise the Lord!

Psalm 150

"Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD."

Always give God the praise for who he is in your life.

Give Thanks To God

Psalm 107:1 "O Give thanks unto the Lord for he is good, for his mercy endureth for ever."

What are you thankful for?

Give thanks to God for everything and in everything.

The Power Of Agreement

Matthew 18:19, 20 " Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them."

The Power of Agreement is when any two believers in Christ make a decision to get on one accord to petition heaven for their needs, God the Father is obligated to respond because of his word.

Prayer is a pivotal force when carried out by two or more people who desire to see God's will in their lives. Power is released because their is Unity in Prayer. When two or more people pray together things begin to shift and move because of the power of agreement. That is why the enemy fights harder when two people try to come together for anything that is good towards God.

Make the connection today!

Whatever it is that is keeping you from connecting with a fellow believer this morning, put it aside and allow the Holy Spirit to work on your behalf.

The bible says that when any two shall agree on earth, then heaven shows up and the King of Kings is right there in the midst.

Remember!

"One can chase a thousand put two can put ten thousand to flight." Deuteronomy 32:30

Make the connection today!

Heaven is waiting to show up just for the two of you.

Create In Me A Clean Heart

Psalm 51: 10 "Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me."

When was the last time you asked God to Create in you a clean heart and renew a right spirit within you?

If this sounds a little bit strange to you this morning then it is time to return to the Lord.

Everyday God desires for his people to come to him and ask him to create in us a clean heart and renew a right spirit within us.

Our hearts can become polluted with sin, self, bad attitudes and temperaments that do not please God. Our hearts may tell us that we are OK and that we have not outwardly sin today. But in actuality we have inwardly sinned with our thoughts and prejudices. It is the Holy Spirit who knows our hearts and what lies deep within. Therefore we can be living a lie instead of the truth.

Our spirit needs to be renewed in Christ daily. We carry so much on us that we need His Spirit to renew us day by day. The bible tells us in Matthew 11:28 "Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest." God desires to give us rest in our souls so that we can be carriers of his anointing rather than the carriers of the baggages of this life.

Do you need a clean heart?

Do you need a right spirit?

Then I encourage you today to come to Jesus and ask him to wash away the filth out of your heart and give you a clean heart. Ask him to give you a right spirit so that you can operate at a higher level of grace and anointing in him.

Our father God longs to not only create in you a clean heart and renew a right spirit but to Create the image of his Son Jesus Christ in you today.

Be encourage in this journey.

The Lord Is Your Helper

Psalm 121: 1,2 "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth."

Do you know that all of your help comes from the Lord?

Are you aware that in all that comes to you was orchestrated by God to bring you into safety?

Do not think for one minute that it was your safe driving or keen sense of judgement that kept you safe in your car?

It was God that kept you safe all this past week even when you were texting at the wheel.

It was God that made sure you were spared from that accident.

It was God that dispatched his angels to keep you safe while you were asleep last night.

It was God that covered you and sealed you from every present danger.

Give God praise for all of his help towards you each and every day!
Know that all of your help comes from the Lord.

God Is Very Present With You.

Psalm 46:1 "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."

GOD IS:

Very Present when we go through trouble.

Very Present when we go through trials.

Very Present when we go through situations and circumstances.

Very Present when the bills are due.

Very Present when people talk about you.

Very Present when people mistreat you.

Very Present when all hell is breaking lose around you.

In all that happens to you and around you know this: GOD IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH AND IS VERY, VERY, VERY, PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE.

Question Ladies and Gentleman!

If God is very present in all that we go through, then why do we keep freaking out when trouble comes.

My answer today is this: We do not know the God that we serve and how he is able to perform.

I speak this word to you and also to myself today: "Let us cast all of our cares upon him for he cares for us." 1 Peter 5:7

Live Higher in the Presence and Knowledge of who God is.

HE IS OUR REFUGE AND STRENGTH AND IS VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE.

The Power Is In Your Mouth....Prophesy!

Ezekiel 37:4 & 7 "Again he said unto me Prophesy upon these bones, and say unto them, O ye dry bones, hear the word of the Lord.....So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold a shaking, and the bones came together, bone to his bone."

The power to change every situation that you are facing right now is found in your mouth. God desires for you to prophesy his word to every situation and command it to change.

To Prophesy means to reveal by divine inspiration. (freedictionary.com)

What is it that God wants to reveal to you in this hour?

What is it that He wants to make known to you?

Do you know what he is saying to you about your situation?

Do you have an understanding of his plan and will for you for the rest of the year?

God wants to make known to you his will so that when the time comes you can say what he said and see the results that he wants.

"Father in heaven, I pray for all those that read this blog this day and ask that you reveal to them your will, plan, and purpose for their success in life. Show them how to win in their marriages, win in their finances, win in their homes, win in their jobs, win in their businesses, win in their calling, and win in their pursuit of you. Father I bind the forces of darkness that is trying to prevail against them in this hour. You said that life and death is in the power of our tongues; therefore, I cancel every demonic assignment from hell that tries to hinder, delay, overthrow, their progress in God and assignment in the earth. I come in agreement with everyone that reads this prayer this day and ask for their minds to be open to what the Holy Ghost desires to reveal to them today. Father download every garbage that they have held on to including old ways, thought patterns, mindsets, beliefs systems and practices that do not bring you glory. Father upload new mindsets, new thought patterns, new belief systems and practices that will bring you glory based upon faith and trust in your word. Father release into their lives this day a fresh outlook on life and that they will know without a shadow of a doubt that their situation has already begun to turn around for their good and for your glory. Therefore, I thank you for every reader this day and for ther good things that you are doing in them and for them. I seal this prayer with the blood of Jesus and decare that it is done in the name of Jesus. AMEN"

Thank God for the Blood!

Hebrews 9:22 "And almost all things by the law purged with the blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission."

Thank God for the blood of Jesus!

I am so glad this morning for the blood of Jesus that washed all of my sins away. I am so glad to know that if it had not been for the blood of Jesus I would be lost without a Savior and destined to die never to know the eternal riches of the salvation of my Lord and Savior.

The blood of Jesus covers me and my family and keeps me from falling back into the things that had me bound. The blood of Jesus keeps me clean and pure because I have made up in my mind that I will stay under the blood of Jesus.

"What can wash away my sins? Nothing but the blood of Jesus! What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus! O Precious is the flow that makes me white as snow. No other fount I know, Nothing but the blood of Jesus."

Are you thankful for the blood of Jesus?

Give God thanks today for the blood of Jesus.

The Benefits of Waiting On God

Isaiah 40:31 "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint."

Waiting on God is not the easiest thing to do but in the long run it is the best thing to do.

The benefits of the believer waiting on God is as follows:

1) Renewal of Strength - Every child of God will experience a time in his or her life when their strength will fail or diminish due to the hardships of this life. The remedy for a renewed strength is waiting on the Lord. When we begin to wait on the Lord and then waiting in his presence our strength will be renewed in Him.

2.) Mount up with wings of eagles. - The eagle is a majestic bird that when viewed in its habitat it is found on high cliffs where it sits and waits for the wind. Why? So that it can mount up on the wind and soar. The application is this. Whenever we wait on the Spirit of God he lifts us up in heavenly places in Christ Jesus.

3.) Run without getting tired. - We are all called to run a race so that we can get a reward. Waiting on God enables us to effectively run this spiritual race. The presence of God energizes our spirit so that we can run without getting tired or weary. Weariness stems from not waiting on God's Spirit especially when we try to do everything in our own strength.

4.) Walk and not faint. - The image that is presented here goes from soaring to running and then eventually to walking. The application that is shown here is that in the seasons of our lives we all will experience some level of progression in our relationship with God. At times we will be soaring high in the Spirit. Then at other times we may be running with a word or revelation that God has birthed into our spirit. Eventually we may not be running nor soaring but walking. Walking allows us to see the path that is laid out before us. It is in walking that we are able to see the details of our steps that are ordered by God.

Therefore, enjoy your walk with God. He desires to show you the details of your life.
