him so as children of God we have every reason to rejoice and declare Romans 8:31 What then shall we say in response to these things if God is for us who can be against us when we need Divine strength from above we can call on a God who has no limits there is no limit to his strength no limit to his wisdom and knowledge there is no limit to his patience love and mercy Psalm 145 verse 8 and 9 says the Lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger and and great in Mercy

Christ still has power today the blood of Jesus Christ still has the power to deliver to protect to heal and to defend me and my family from the devil father strengthen me and help me to become a Believer who is fearless and bold because of you when voices of doubt and fear attempt to drown my faith I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your grace is sufficient and your strength is made perfect in my weakness your word in Psalm 46:1 reminds me that God is our refuge and strength and everpresent help in

trouble thank you for always being there for me Lord I praise you for your consistency because time and time again you have provided me with all that I need to keep standing in faith you are and you have always been faithful to deliver me from all of my cares and troubles in Matthew 7: 24-27 the Bible says this everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his House on the Rock and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on

that house but it did not fall because it had been founded on the Rock and everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house and great was the fall of it now let us pray dear Lord if we build our lives on the words that you have spoken then our house will not fall our faith will not fail us if our faith is built

on you King Jesus your word has assured us that we cannot be moved when the rain of Life come we will not be swept away when the floods of Life come we will stand strong and stand in faith we will not be shaken when the Winds of Life blow we will not fall away because we are standing on the Rock of Ages Jesus Christ and so may your name be praised Lord may you be glorified and honed forgive us if we have ever doubted your word even for a moment forgive us Lord for misplaced trust

when we have trusted in people when we have trusted in things instead of you I pray that the Holy Spirit would be our guide May the Holy Spirit teach us how to trust in you Holy Spirit I pray that you would be the strong voice of conviction in our hearts so that whenever we are confronted by doubt or fear or anxiety remind us what the word of God says whenever we feel weak whenever we feel overwhelmed May the spirit of the Living God remind us what his word says you are worthy to be praised Lord

because you have never been defeated you have never lost a battle and the Victory belongs to you Jesus may your name be lifted High always I thank you for your goodness in Jesus name I pray Amen in this world we have to contend with so many different pressures there's the pressure that comes with family there's the pressure that comes with work there's pressure that comes from society now what we have to realize is that a lot of the pressures we contend with a lot of the weight we carry it all stems from the world's set

of standards and do you know what it's easy to fall into Conformity to do what unbelievers do and to be as they are but it's Christian men and women we're called to model our lives like Christ we're called to live in a Godly manner fearing the Lord and obeying him even when it doesn't make sense to the rest of the world Romans 12: two says do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God what is good and

acceptable and perfect the opposite of Conformity is a renewed mind the way God views the world and our lives is counterintuitive to everything our culture teaches therefore we must be willing to let him change us and retach us how to think then we'll be equipped to live a life that's pleasing to him 1 Peter 1 1: 14-6 says as obedient children do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance but as he who called you is Holy you also be holy in all your conduct since it is written you shall be holy for

I am Holy you see the reason the world acts the way it does is because of ignorance they don't comprehend the Beauty and the worth of the gospel they don't understand that what God has in store for them is infinitely better than the empty promises of sin but thank God he has opened our eyes he has called us out of our ignorant ways and into something so much greater 2 Corinthians 7:1 says since we have these promises beloved let us clean ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit bringing Holiness to completion in the fear

of God in the Old Testament the Hebrew people would form ritual cleansings after encountering anything unclean what if we show that same kind of dedication to the spots of worldliness in our lives what if we were determined to make a clean break with any habit any Behavior any attitude not pleas pleasing to God 2 Timothy 2: 21 says therefore if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable he will be a vessel for honorable use set apart as holy useful to the master of the house ready for every good work often times we find ourselves acting

like the world because we're afraid of stepping on toes we are afraid of the ridicule or the criticism that we might receive if we show ourselves to be true followers of Christ and deep down we are afraid that somehow by letting go of this world we might be missing out but when we separate ourselves from the world we are not depriving ourselves of any good thing rather we are taking hold of the promises of God Which is far greater [Music] now let's go to God together in prayer father God thank you thank you for giving

us hope thank you for giving us a purpose beyond what this world has to offer you Lord have been so good and you've done so many good things for us and we thank you Father mother our prayer today is that we would not be conformed to this world in any way but instead I pray that the Holy Spirit would move in our lives and stir us up I pray that he'd stir us up so that we can be transformed by the renewal of our minds Lord there is so much pressure in this world today there's

pressure to be like everyone else to blend in with a cow but father I ask that you'd keep us strong King Jesus may we never bow down to pressures of this world we ask that you would give us the grace and strength to be the salt of the earth to be the light in this world Lord I pray for every person listening for anyone struggling with the pressures of this world give them the strength not to conform to this world give them the strength to stand out to live life differently Lord give them the strength

to think Against the Grain and father help us to never conform to the Wicked Ways of this world may we never conform to the world's way of living which leads to death and destruction but may we follow your way which leads to everlasting life father we understand that we may have to endure ridicule and mockery in this life but I know that our reward in heaven will be so much greater 1 John 2:15 says do not love the world or anything in the world if anyone loves the world love for the father is not in

them Father let there be no love of the world in my heart help me to be on guard against worldly traps Lord don't let me fall into habits that Grieve Your Holy Spirit don't let me start acting in ways that might harm my witness for Christ God we find so often that Satan disguises sin as something good and desirable but Lord help me to not only recognize these works of darkness but Lord also help me to expose them and warn those around me so that they won't be caught unaware God give me the courage and

strength to stand up against evil whenever I see it build within me a character that is fully equipped and emboldened to stand for the gospel for the gospel is the only thing with the power to transform lives and hearts in this dark and sinful World Lord let that transformation begin in my my own mind God I ask you to change my desires so that I no longer think or act like the world but instead help me to imitate the example of Christ and all of my conduct instead of bitterness fill me with love Lord instead

of jealousy fill me with gratitude break me of every habit and every attitude that resembles the world and father teach me to obey you instead may your Holy Spirit fill me and help me to discern your perfect will for my life God I know that I cannot follow your will without letting go of all my Earthly treasures and fully surrendering to you so heavenly father I pray right now that you would consecrate me set me apart for service in your kingdom May the world look at my life and notice that there is a difference and

then may they give glory to the one to whom all glory belongs and that is you my Lord and Savior I ask all these things in Jesus name I I pray amen now I would like to highlight Psalm 145 a chapter of Praise verse 1 to8 says I will exalt you my God the king I will praise your name Forever and Ever every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever great is the Lord and most worthy of Praise His greatness no one can fathom one generation commends your Works to another

they tell of your Mighty acts they speak of the Glorious Splendor of your majesty and I will meditate on your wonderful Works they tell of the power of your awesome works and I will Proclaim your great Deeds they celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully Sing of Your righteousness the Lord is gracious and compassionate slow to anger and rich in love the Lord is good to all he has compassion on all he has made all your works praise you lord your faithful people extol you they tell of the Glory of your kingdom and speak of your

might so that all people may know of your Mighty acts and the Glorious Splendor of your kingdom your kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom and your Dominion endures through all generations the Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does the Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down the eyes of all look to you and you give them their food at the proper time you open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing the Lord is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all

he does the Lord is near to all who call on him to all who call on him him in truth father as the deer pants for streams of water so my soul pants for you my God my soul thirsts for God for the Living God only your presence Lord Jesus can bring transformation into our lives only your presence can revive and refresh us father rekindle our flame for you so that we can have a strong desire to chase Holiness and live righteously I invite your presence Lord to remove all of the turmoil and fear around

us may your love and mercy Reign be our Sanctuary Lord our place of safety and refuge your word in John 7:38 says he who believes beles in me as the scripture has said out of his heart will flow rivers of Living Water Lord I pray that you would touch our lives in such a mighty way that rivers of Living Water will flow continually from our innermost being be glorified now and forever more thank you for listening to this prayer Lord amen today I'd like to remind you that time is short life is short we only

have a set number of days on this earth now there is a passage of scripture that puts this into perspective Ecclesiastes 3 verse 1 to8 reads for everything there is a season and a time for every matter under Heaven A Time To Be born and a time to die a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted A Time to Kill and a time to heal a time to break down and a time to build up a time to weep and a time to laugh a time to mourn and a time

to dance a time to Cast Away stones and a time to gather Stones together a time to Embrace and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek and a time to lose a time to keep and a time to Cast Away a time to tear and a time to soow a time to keep silent and a time to speak a time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a Time For Peace there is a time for everything on this Earth nothing on this side of Heaven lasts forever good

times don't last forever but the joy of the Lord is your strength when you believe in Jesus Christ equally bad times tough times don't last forever because the word of God has promised us that Joy comes in the morning so with this in mind my message is simple don't wait until it's too late don't wait until there's not enough time while you're still breathing while you're still able-bodied while you still can repent repent and live for God while you still can pray without ceasing while you still have time seek Jesus Christ with all of your

energy with all of your might while you still can call on God's amazing power to help you to overcome your sinful struggles call on the Holy Ghost to transform your heart and defeat everything that tries to place itself above God in your life while you still have time fight the good fight of Faith Saints life is short eternity is long and we need to live like it in Hebrews 12:1 the Bible says therefore since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses let us also lay aside every weight and sin which clings so

closely and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us the the Bible is calling us to strip off every unnecessary weight in our lives do away with the sin which tries to ensnare you and keep you bound people of God Jesus Christ is all that matters and with the time that you have live with wisdom and make use of today and serve the Lord while you still can our days are numbered and we must live for God so in everything you do put God first in the midst of everything you go

through trust God first now let us pray Lord Jesus I pray in agreement with every heart that is listening right now father would you teach us to number our days so that we may have a heart of wisdom teach us to live with the fear of the Lord ruling our hearts help us to live a life that is led by Godly wisdom your word in Ezekiel 36: 27 says I will put my spirit within you and cause you to walk in my statutes and you will keep my judgments and do them God I receive your

spirit I receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit within me and cause me you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower me to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower me to walk with the eyes of Faith Empower me to walk in alignment with God's word help me holy spirit so that I can let go of every sin every Idol every addiction that weighs me down in my walk with Christ help me to let go of bitterness help me to forgive and to let go of

any anger and resentment give me the grace to live with an attitude that for me to live is Christ and to die is gain eternity is just around the corner help me to live with wisdom father I don't know the day or the hour that you will call my name to your throne however I pray that when you do call me Lord and I stand stand before you find me to be a believer who lives in a manner that pleases you with the time that I have here on Earth set my heart Ablaze for you

in your kingdom don't allow me to be lukewarm I have made a decision to follow you Lord and so I pray that you would help me to make the best use of the time I have here on Earth because the days are evil there is a battle to do right right and wrong every day a battle to live in sin or Holiness in this Relentless battle help me to never lose sight of you and your wonderful promises help me never to lose sight of what your word says in John 14 verse 1-4 let not your

hearts be troubled believe in God believe also in me in my father's house are many rooms if it were not so would I've told you that I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and will take you to myself that where I am you may be also and you know the way to where I am going Lord I embrace This Promise as I live this life father I want to be found to be in obedience to you to your will to your

authority to your kingdom and to all your ways Lord I Surrender My Flesh to the will of Jesus Christ I do not want to be led or attracted to Earthly Pleasures Lord as your children give us the mind of Christ where I pursue godliness each and every day I want to be rooted in your word so that I can stand firm against Satan's schemes Lord Jesus you paid a heavy sacrifice for me on the cross and all thanks and glory be unto you because I now have victory in this life and it's all because of

you I don't know what tomorrow will bring but whatever it brings Jesus is with me and in Jesus I have a strong refuge in the day of trouble I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer in the matchless name of Jesus Christ I pray amen you see when you draw closest to Jesus you'll find him to be a wonderful counselor a mighty God an eternal father and the Prince of Peace according to Isaiah 9:6 when you draw close to the Lord you'll find mark 10: 27 to be true and

see that with men it is impossible but not with God for With God all things are possible draw close to God and He will draw near to you the Bible says he is the only one who can supply all your needs according to his riches and Glory by Christ Jesus he is the only one who will cause Proverbs 3:4 to become reality in your life and you will find that when you lie down you will not be afraid yes you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet so don't allow that problem to overwhelm

you don't allow that burden to weigh you down don't allow the enemy to distract you all that you need can be found in Christ and so May the peace of the Lord be upon your heart may your eyes remain fixed on the perfect work that was done on the cross may your faith stand on the solid rock that is Christ Jesus may you find joy and Triumph Victory and gladness as you chase the presence of God may you find him to be a certain God in the midst of an uncertain World Jeremiah 33:3 says call

we will not be swept away when the floods of Life come we will stand strong and stand in faith we will not be shaken when the Winds of Life blow we will not fall away because we are standing on the Rock of Ages Jesus Christ and so may your name be praised Lord may you be glorified and honored forgive us if we have ever doubted your word even for a moment forgive us Lord for misplaced trust when we have trusted in people when we have trusted in things instead of you I pray that the Holy

Spirit would be our guide May the Holy Spirit teach us how to trust in you Holy Spirit I pray that you would be the strong voice of conviction in our hearts so that whenever we are confronted by doubt or fear or anxiety remind us what the word of God says whenever we feel weak whenever we feel overwhelmed May the spirit of the Living God remind us what his word says you are worthy worthy to be praised Lord because you have never been defeated you have never lost a battle and the Victory belongs to you Jesus

may your name be lifted High always I thank you for your goodness in Jesus name I pray Amen in this world we have to contend with so many different pressures there's the pressure that comes with family there's the pressure that comes with work there's pressure that comes from society now what we have to realize is that a lot of the pressures we contend with a lot of the weight we carry it all stems from the world's set of standards and do you know what it's easy to fall into Conformity to to do what unbelievers do

and to be as they are but as Christian men and women we're called to model our lives like Christ we're called to live in a Godly manner fearing the Lord and obeying him even when it doesn't make sense to the rest of the world Romans 12:2 says do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God what is good and acceptable and perfect the opposite of Conformity is a renewed mind the way God views the world and our

lives is counterintuitive to everything our culture teaches therefore we must be willing to let him change us and reteach us how to think then we'll be equipped to live a life that's pleasing to him 1 Peter 1: 14-16 says as obedient children do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance but as he who called you as holy you also be holy in all your conduct since it is written you shall be holy for I am Holy you see the reason the world acts the way it does is because of ignorance they don't

comprehend the Beauty and the worth of the Gospel they don't understand that what God has in store for them is infinitely better than the empty promises of sin but thank God he has opened our eyes he has called us out of our ignorant ways and into something so much greater 2 Corinthians 7:1 says since we have these promises is beloved let us clean ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit bringing Holiness to completion in the fear of God in the Old Testament the Hebrew people would form ritual cleansings after encountering anything unclean what if

we showed that same kind of dedication to the spots of worldliness in our lives what if we were determined to make a clean break with any habit any Behavior any attitude not pleasing to God 2 Timothy 2 verse 21 says therefore if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable he will be a vessel for honorable use set apart as holy useful to the master of the house ready for every good work often times we find ourselves acting like the world world because we're afraid of stepping on toes we are afraid of the ridicule or the

criticism that we might receive if we show ourselves to be true followers of Christ and deep down we are afraid that somehow by letting go of this world we might be missing out but when we separate ourselves from the world we are not depriving ourselves of any good thing rather we are taking hold of the promise Promises of God Which is far greater now let's go to God together in prayer father God thank you thank you for giving us hope thank you for giving us a purpose beyond what this world has to offer you Lord

have been so good and you've done so many good things for us and we thank you Father our prayer today is that we would not be conformed to this world in any way but instead I pray that the Holy Spirit would move in our lives and stir us up I pray that he'd stir us up so that we can be transformed by the renewal of our minds Lord there is so much pressure in this world today there there's pressure to be like everyone else to blend in with the crowd but father I ask that you'd

keep us strong King Jesus may we never bow down to pressures of this world we ask that you would give us the grace and strength to be the salt of the earth to be the light in this world Lord I pray for every person listening for anyone struggling with the pressure of this world give them the strength not to conform to this world give them the strength to stand out to live life differently Lord give them the strength to think Against the Grain and father help us to never conform to the Wicked Ways of this

world may we never conform to the world's way of living which leads to death and destruction but may we follow your way which leads to everlasting life father we understand that we may have to endure ridicule and mockery in this life but I know that our reward in heaven will be so much greater 1 John 2 verse 15 says do not love the world or anything in the world if anyone loves the world love for the father is not in them Father let there be no love of the world in my heart help me to

be on guard against worldly traps Lord don't let me fall into habits that Grieve Your Holy Spirit don't let me start acting in ways that might harm my witness for Christ God we find so often that Satan disguises sin as something good and desirable but Lord help me to not only recognize these works of darkness but Lord also help me to expose them and warn those around me so that they won't be caught unaware God give me the courage and strength to stand up against evil whenever I see it build within me a character that

is fully equipped and emboldened to stand for the gospel for the gospel is the only thing with the power to transform lives and hearts in this dark and sinful world Lord let that transformation begin in my own mind God I ask you to change my desires so that I no longer think or act like the world but instead help me to imitate the example of Christ and all of my conduct instead of bitterness fill me with love Lord instead of jealousy fill me with gratitude break me of every habit and every attitude that resembles the

world and father teach me to obey you instead may your Holy Spirit fill me and help me to discern your perfect will for my life God I know that I cannot follow your will without letting go of all my Earthly treasures and fully surrendering to you so heavenly father I pray right now that you would consecrate me set me apart for service in your kingdom May the world look at my life and notice that there is a difference and then may they give glory to the one to whom all glory belongs and that is you

my Lord and Savior I ask all these things in Jesus name I pray amen now I would like to highlight Psalm 145 a chapter of Praise verse 1 to8 says I will exalt you my God the king I will praise your name Forever and Ever every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever great is the Lord and most worthy of Praise His greatness no one can fathom one generation commends your Works to another they tell of your Mighty acts they speak of the Glorious Splendor of your majesty and I will

word in John 7 verse 38 says he who believes in me as the scripture has said out of his heart will flow rivers of Living Water Lord I pray that you would touch our lives in such a mighty way that rivers of Living Water will flow continually from our innermost being be glorified now and forever more thank you for listen listening to this prayer Lord amen today I'd like to remind you that time is short life is short we only have a set number of days on this earth now there is a passage of scripture

that puts this into perspective Ecclesiastes 3 verse 1 to8 reads for everything there is a season and a time for every matter under Heaven a time to be born and a time to die a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted A Time to Kill and a time to heal a time to break down and a time to build up a time to weep and a time to laugh a time to mourn and a time to dance a time to Cast Away stones and a time to gather Stones together a

time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek and a time to lose a time to keep and a time to Cast Away a time to tear and a time to sew a time to keep silent and a time to speak a time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a Time For Peace there is a time for everything on this Earth nothing on this side of Heaven lasts forever good times don't last forever but the joy of the Lord is your strength when you believe

in Jesus Christ equally bad times tough times don't last forever because the word of God has promised us that Joy comes in the morning so with this in mind my message is simple don't wait until it's too late don't wait until there's not enough time while you're still breathing while you're still able-bodied while you still can repent repent and live for God while you still can pray without ceasing while you still have time seek Jesus Christ with all of your energy with all of your might while you still can call on God's amazing power to

help you to overcome your sinful struggles call on the Holy Ghost to transform your heart and defeat everything that tries to place itself above God in your life while you still have time fight the a good fight of Faith Saints life is short eternity is long and we need to live like it in Hebrews 12:1 the Bible says therefore since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses let us also lay aside every weight and sin which clings so closely and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us the

Bible is calling us to strip off every unnecessary weight in our lives do away with the sin which tries to ensnare you and keep you bound people of God Jesus Christ is all that matters and with the time that you have live with wisdom and make use of today and serve the Lord while you still can our days are numbered and we must live for God so in everything you do put God first in the midst of everything you go through trust God first now let us pray Lord Jesus I pray in agreement with every

heart that is listening right now father would you teach us to number our days so that we may have a heart of wisdom teach us to to live with the fear of the Lord ruling our hearts help us to live a life that is led by Godly wisdom your word in Ezekiel 36: 27 says I will put my spirit within you and cause you to walk in my statutes and you will keep my judgments and do them God I receive your spirit I receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your

decision to follow you Lord and so I pray that you would help me to make the best use of the time I have here on Earth because the days are evil there is a battle to do right and wrong every day a battle to live in sin or Holiness in this Relentless battle help me to never lose sight of you and your wonderful promises help me never to lose sight of what your word says in John 14 verse 1 to4 let not your hearts be troubled believe in God believe also in me in my father's

Surrender My Flesh to the will of Jesus Christ I do not want to be led or attracted to Earthly Pleasures Lord as your children give us the mind of Christ where I pursue godliness each and every day I want to be rooted in your word so that I can stand firm against Satan's schemes Lord Jesus you paid a heavy sacrifice for me on the cross and all thanks and glory be unto you because I now have victory in this life and it's all because of you I don't know what tomorrow will bring but whatever it

brings Jesus is with me and in Jesus I have a strong refuge in the day of trouble I bless your holy name name and I thank you for listening to this prayer in the matchless name of Jesus Christ I pray amen you see when you draw closest to Jesus you'll find him to be a wonderful counselor a mighty God an eternal father and the Prince of Peace according to Isaiah 9:6 when you draw close to the Lord you'll find mark 10: 27 to be true and see that that with men it is impossible but not

with God for With God all things are possible draw close to God and He will draw near to you the Bible says he is the only one who can supply all your needs according to his riches and Glory by Christ Jesus he is the only one who will cause Proverbs 3:4 to become reality in your life and you will find that when you lie down you will not be afraid yes you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet so don't allow that problem to overwhelm you don't allow that burden to weigh you down

don't allow the enemy to distract you all that you need can be found in Christ and so May the peace of the Lord be upon your heart may your eyes remain fixed on the perfect work that was done on the cross may your faith stand on the solid rock that is Christ Jesus may you find joy and Triumph Victory and gladness as you chase the presence of God may you find him to be a certain God in the midst of an uncertain World Jeremiah 33:3 says call to me and I will answer you and show

you Great and Mighty things which you do not know lift your faith tonight and call on him call on his name the name above all names call on him expecting that he will answer you expect and believe that he will show you Great and Mighty things just as he said in his word now I encourage you to pray this prayer after me Lord Jesus you are my deliverer at a time that I am desperate to be saved you are my healer when I am in need of healing you are the one who restores when I

am lacking you Lord are my refuge every time that I need safety and protection you are Jehovah Gyra my provider when all else fails around me and so I honor you and I thank you I bless your holy name and I worship you your word word says in Jeremiah 29:1 for I know the thoughts that I think towards you thoughts of Peace not of evil to give you an expected end thank you for your word Lord because I know that the almighty creator has good thoughts about me The Great I Am thinks thoughts of peace

and not of evil towards me and because of that I can confidently say you are my safe place and you are my strong tower you are my Lord and Savior I trust in you to be with me always and to never forsake me as you have promised in your word you Lord Jesus are faithful you are just and you are loving I trust and believe that you will strengthen me and protect me from the evil one for father as your children we need to hear your voice speak to us father May the voice of your

Holy Spirit be heard in our hearts your word says in Exodus 15:2 the Lord is my strength and my defense and he has become my salvation he is my God and I will praise him my father is God and I will exalt him I thank you for your goodness and it's because you are good it's because you first loved me before I was ever formed in my mother's womb it's because you have proven Your Love time and time again it's because of all these reasons that I would rather dwell and abide in your presence than

anywhere else I pray that your presence will Surround Me Be My Shelter Lord Jesus my safety net my source of Hope when your presence is with me then I can let go of all of my worries I can let go of everything that can make me anxious I am no longer fearful in your presence goodness and mercy follow me when I am in your presence Lord Jesus just your presence alone will solve every issue in my life because in your presence there is strength there is peace there is love and everlasting life that's why I

desire to draw near to you I desire to live a life that is close to you because when I am close to you I am hidden from the enemy I believe that you Lord Jesus are the only thing that Still Remains certain even in this world filled with uncertainty I praise you for you are worthy you are God and You Are God Alone you are faithful and kind God who loves us and only wants the best for us I acknowledge you as the mighty Creator all powerful perfect in all your ways and the one who

is in total control over our lives thank you for listening to this prayer Lord thank you for hearing me in the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray amen 2 Corinthians CH 12 verse 9-10 says my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ's power May rest on me that is why for Christ's sake I Delight in weaknesses in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong sometimes in life

we encounter pain we encounter heartache and we can face circumstance an es that can cause us to ask questions there are some situations that simply drain our energy and strength as Believers we need to realize that we cannot overcome everything that comes our way without the help of the Lord without falling into the arms of the Father the pain will always be too much without the strength and comfort of the Holy Spirit it heartache will destroy us without the hope faith and knowledge of knowing that Jesus Christ defeated the grave then we won't be able

to overcome the challenges of life with man it is impossible but With God all things are possible in Psalm 125 ver1 the Bible says Those Who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion which cannot be moved but abides forever here the Bible Likens the people who trust in God to Mount Zion which throughout time has been an important historical and spiritual Landmark for Israel now in a Biblical context when you research about Mount Zion you will find it to be a significant Landmark that is referred to over and over again in Part B of

Micah 4:7 the Bible says so the Lord will reign over them in Mount Zion from now on even Forever More in Hebrews 12:22 the Bible says but you have come to Mount Zion and the City of the Living God the heavenly Jerusalem to an innumerable company of Angels so you see when the Bible tells us that those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion it's really highlighting the significance of trusting in God dear friend anything else that you put your trust in will eventually let you down you can only trust in Jesus Christ

to save you you can only trust in Jesus Christ to be your peace and comfort we serve a God who is not only living but he operates with no limitations no boundaries or restrictions we can look back at the word of God and see that he has power and authority and strength over everything and everyone he created the heavens and the Earth he parted the Red Sea he spoke to Nature and it had no choice but to obey he commanded a den full of hungry Lions not to touch Daniel and they listened the Lord commanded

a huge fish to swallow Jonah and to keep him in its belly for three days and three nights unharmed and it listened Pharaoh couldn't stand against him Goliath couldn't stand against the power of God God the prophets of Baal were no match for the Lord you see the devil has been defeated and will always be defeated because our God is allmighty our God is all powerful and there is none who can stand against him so as children of God we have every reason to rejoice and declare Romans 8:31 What then shall we say in in

response to these things if God is for us who can be against us when we need Divine strength from above we can call on a God who has no limits there is no limit to his strength no limit to his wisdom and knowledge there is no limit to his patience love and mercy Psalm 145 verse 8 and N says the Lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger and great in Mercy the Lord is good to all and his Tender Mercies are over all his Works God works beyond the limit of man so

be encouraged to call on the Lord for strength when the mountain in front of you looks daunting and Our God can move mountains he can part Seas speak to Nature and shut the mouths of hungry Lions dear God your word tells me in Isaiah 40 verse 29 that he gives power to the weak and to those who have no might he increases strength in my weakness give me strength Lord Jesus I thank you for the privilege of being able to approach your throne of grace knowing that you love me and care for me Lord when

I am weighed down by the cares of Life be my strength when I feel as though I am being crushed by my troubles be my strength Lord strengthen me to stand strong when my faith is wavering strengthen me in my moments of weakness I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your strength is made perfect when all of my strength is gone your strength is perfect in my weakness I pray that you would equip me to handle all of life's difficulties I am strong in you I am strong with you Lord and I

can only overcome because of you King Jesus Holy Spirit strengthen my faith the word of God tells me in Philippians 4:13 that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Lord I believe that through you I can overcome and have victory in every area of my life I believe that through you I will have the strength to stand Lord I believe in your wonderwork power I believe that the blood of Jesus Christ still has power today the blood of Jesus Christ still has the power to deliver to protect to heal and to defend

me and my family from the devil father strengthen me and help me to become a Believer who is fearless and bold because of you when voices of doubt and fear attempt to drown my faith I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your grace is sufficient and your strength is made perfect in my weakness your word in Psalm 46:1 reminds me that God is our refuge and strength and everpresent help in trouble thank you for always being there for me Lord I praise you for your consistency because time and time again you have

provided me with all that I need to keep standing in faith you are and you have always been faithful to deliver me from all of my cares and troubles in Matthew 7: 24-27 the Bible says this everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house but it did not fall because it had been founded on the Rock and everyone who hears these words of mine

and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his his house on the sand and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house and great was the fall of it now let us pray dear Lord if we build our lives on the words that you have spoken then our house will not fall our faith will not fail us if our faith is built on you King Jesus your word has assured us that we cannot be moved when The Rains of Life come we will

not be swept away when the floods of Life come we will stand strong and stand in faith we will not be shaken when the Winds of Life blow we will not fall away because we are standing on the Rock of Ages Jesus Christ and so may your name be praised Lord may you be glorified and honored forgive us if we have ever doubted your word even for a moment forgive us Lord for misplaced trust when we have trusted in people when we have trusted in things instead of you I pray that the Holy Spirit would

be our God May the Holy Spirit teach us how to trust in you Holy Spirit I pray that you would be the strong voice of conviction in our hearts so that whenever we are confronted by doubt or fear or anxiety remind us what the word of God says whenever we feel weak whenever we feel overwhelmed May the spirit of the Living God remind us what his word says you are worthy to be praised Lord because you have never been defeated you have never lost a battle and the Victory belongs to you Jesus may your name

be lifted High always I thank you for your goodness in Jesus name I pray Amen in this world we have to contend with so many different pressures there's the pressure that comes with family there's the pressure that comes with work there's pressure that comes from society now what we have to realize is that a lot of the pressures we contend with a lot of the weight we carry it all stems from the world's set of standards and do you know what it's easy to fall into Conformity to do what unbelievers do and to be as

they are but it's Christian men and women we're called to model our lives like Christ we're called to live in a Godly manner fearing the Lord and obeying him even when it doesn't make sense to the rest of the world Romans 12:2 says do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God what is good and acceptable and perfect the opposite of Conformity is a renewed mind the way God views the world and our lives is counterintuitive to

show ourselves to be true followers of Christ and deep down we are afraid that somehow by letting go of this world we might be missing out but when we separate ourselves from the world we are not depriving ourselves of any good thing rather we are taking hold of the promises of God Which is far greater now let's go to God together in prayer father God thank you thank you for giving us hope thank you for giving us a purpose beyond what this world has to offer you Lord have been so good and you've done so

many good things for us and we thank you Father our prayer today is that we would not be conformed to this world in any way but instead I pray that the Holy Spirit would move in our lives and stir us up I pray that he'd stir us up so that we can be transformed by the renewal of our minds Lord there is so much pressure in this world today there's pressure to be like everyone else to blend in with a crowd but father I ask that you'd keep us strong King Jesus may we never bow

for hearing me in the mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray amen 2 Corinthians 12: 9-1 says my grace is sufficient for you for my power is made perfect in weakness therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses so that Christ's power May rest on me that is why for Christ's sake I Delight in weaknesses in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong sometimes in life we encounter pain we encounter heartache and we can face circumstances that can cause us to ask questions there

are some situations that simply drain our energy and strength as Believers we need to realize that we cannot overcome everything that comes our way without the help of the Lord without falling into the arms of the Father the pain will always be too much without the strength and comfort of the Holy Spirit heartache will destroy us without the hope faith and knowledge of knowing that Jesus Christ defeated the grave then we won't be able to overcome the challenges of life with man it is impossible but With God all things are possible in Psalm 125 ver1

the Bible says Those Who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion which cannot be moved but abides forever here the Bible Likens the people who trust in God to Mount Zion which throughout time has been an important historical and spiritual Landmark for Israel now in a Biblical context when you research about Mount Zion you will find it to be a significant Landmark that is referred to over and over again in Part B of Micah 4:7 the Bible says so the Lord will reign over them in Mount Zion from now on even Forever More in

Hebrews 12:22 the Bible says but you have come to Mount Zion and the City of the Living God the Heavenly Jerusalem to an innumerable company of angels so you see when the Bible tells us that those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion it's really highlighting the significance of trusting in God dear friend anything else that you put your trust in will eventually let you down you can only trust in Jesus Christ to save you you can only trust in Jesus Christ to be your peace and comfort we serve a God who is

not only living but he operates with no limitations no boundaries or restrictions we can look back at the word of God and see that he has power and authority and strength over everything and everyone he created the Heaven and the Earth he parted the Red Sea he spoke to Nature and it had no choice but to obey he commanded a den full of hungry Lions not to touch Daniel and they listened the Lord commanded a huge fish to swallow Jonah and to keep him in its belly for 3 days and three nights unharmed and it

listened Pharaoh couldn't stand stand against him Goliath couldn't stand against the power of God the prophets of Baal were no match for the Lord you see the devil has been defeated and will always be defeated because our God is allmighty our God is all powerful and there is none who can stand against him so as children of God we have every reason to rejoice and declare Romans chapter 8:31 What then shall we say in response to these things if God is for us who can be against us when we need Divine strength from above we

can call on a God who has no limits there is no limit to his strength no limit to his wisdom and knowledge there is no limit to his patience love and mercy Psalm 145: 8 and 9 says the Lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger and great in Mercy the Lord is good to all and his Tender Mercies are over all his Works God works beyond the limit of man so be encouraged to call on the Lord for strength when the mountain in front of you looks daunting Our God can move mountains

he can part Seas speak to Nature and shut the mouths of hungry Lions dear God your word tells me in Isaiah 40: 29 that he gives power to the weak and to those who have no might he increases strength in my weakness give me strength Lord Jesus I thank you for the privilege of being able to approach your throne of grace knowing that you love me and care for me Lord when I am weighed down by the cares of Life be my strength when I feel as though I am being crushed by my troubles be

my strength Lord strengthen me to stand strong when my faith is wavering strengthen me in my moments of weakness I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your strength is made perfect when all of my strength is gone your strength is perfect in my weakness I pray that you would equip me to handle all of life's difficulties I am strong in you I am strong wrong with you Lord and I can only overcome Because of You King Jesus Holy Spirit strengthen my faith the word of God tells me in Philippians 4:13 that I

can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Lord I believe that through you I can overcome and have victory in every area of my life I believe that through you I will have the strength to stand Lord I believe in your wonderwork power I believe that the blood of Jesus Christ still has power today the blood of Jesus Christ still has the power to deliver to protect to heal and to defend me and my family from the devil father strengthen me and help me to become a Believer who is fearless and bold because of

you when voices of doubt and fear attempt to drown my faith I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your grace is sufficient and your strength is made perfect in my weakness your word in Psalm 46:1 reminds me that God is our refuge and strength and everpresent help in trouble thank you for always being there for me Lord I praise you for your consistency because time and time again you have provided me with all that I need to keep standing in faith you are and you have always been faithful to deliver me from

all of my cares and troubles in Matthew 7 verse 24-27 the Bible says this everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house but it did not fall because it had been founded on the Rock and everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand and the rain fell and

the floods came and the winds blew and beat against that house and great was the fall of it now let us pray dear Lord if we build our lives on the words that you have spoken then our house will not fall our faith will not fail us if our faith is built on you King Jesus your word has assured us that we cannot be moved when the Reigns of Life come we will not be swept away when the floods of Life come we will stand strong and stand in faith we will not be shaken when

the Winds of Life blow we will not fall away because we are standing on the Rock of Ages Jesus Christ and so may your name be praised Lord may you be glorified and honored forgive us if we have ever doubted your word even for a moment forgive us Lord for misplaced trust when we have trusted in people when we have trusted in things instead of you I pray that the Holy Spirit would be our guide May the Holy Spirit teach us how to trust in you Holy Spirit I pray that you would be the strong

voice of conviction in our hearts so that whenever we are confronted by doubt or fear or anxiety remind us what the word of God says whenever we feel weak whenever we feel over whelmed May the spirit of the Living God remind us what his word says you are worthy to be praised Lord because you have never been defeated you have never lost a battle and the Victory belongs to you Jesus may your name be lifted High always I thank you for your goodness in Jesus name I pray amen in this world we have to contend

with so many different pressures there's the pressure that comes with family there's the pressure that comes with work there's pressure that comes from society now what we have to realize is that a lot of the pressures we contend with a lot of the weight we carry it all stems from the world's set of standards and do you know what it's easy to fall into Conformity to do what unbelievers do and to be as they are but as Christian men and women we're called to model our lives like Christ we're called to live in a Godly

manner fearing the Lord and obeying him even when it doesn't make sense to the rest of the world Romans 12:2 says do not be be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God what is good and acceptable and perfect the opposite of Conformity is a renewed mind the way God views the world and our lives is counterintuitive to everything our culture teaches therefore we must be willing to let him change us and reteach us how to think then we'll

be equipped to live a life that's pleasing to him 1 Peter 1: 14-16 says as obedient children do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance but as he who called you as holy you also be holy in all your conduct since it is written you shall be holy for I am Holy you see the reason the world acts the way it does is because of ignorance they don't comprehend the Beauty and the worth of the Gospel they don't understand that what God has in store for them is infinitely better than the empty

promises of sin but thank God he has opened our eyes he has called us out of our ignorant ways and into something so much greater 2 Corinthians 7:1 says since we have these promises beloved let us clean ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit bringing Holiness to completion in the fear of God in the Old Testament the Hebrew people would form ritual cleansings after encountering anything unclean what if we show that same kind of dedication to the spots of worldliness in our lives what if we were determined to make a clean break with any

habit any Behavior any attitude not pleasing to God 2 Timothy 2 verse 21 says therefore if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable he will be a vessel for honorable use set apart as holy useful to the Master of the House ready for every good work often times we find ourselves acting like the world because we're afraid of stepping on toes we are afraid of the ridicule or the criticism that we might receive if we show ourselves to be true followers of Christ and deep down we are afraid that somehow by letting go of this

world we might be missing out but when we separate ourselves from the world we are not depriving ourselves of any good thing rather we are taking hold of the promises of God Which is far greater now let's go to God together in prayer father God thank you thank you for giving us hope thank you for giving us a purpose beyond what this world has to offer offer you Lord have been so good and you've done so many good things for us and we thank you Father our prayer today is that we would not be conformed

to this world in any way but instead I pray that the Holy Spirit would move in our lives and stir us up I pray that he'd stir us up so that we can be transformed by the renewal of our minds Lord there is so much pressure in this world today there's pressure to be like everyone else to blend in with the crowd but father I ask that you'd keep us strong King Jesus may we never bow down to pressures of this world we ask that you would give us the grace and strength to be the

salt of the earth to be the light in this world Lord I pray for every person listening for anyone struggling with the pressures of this world give them the strength not to conform to this world give them the strength to stand out to live life differently Lord give them the strength to think Against the Grain and father help us to never conform to the Wicked Ways of this world may we never conform to the world's way of living which leads to death and destruction but may we follow your way which leads to everlasting life father

we understand that we may have to endure ridicule and mockery in this life but I know that our reward in heaven will be so much greater 1 John 2 verse 15 says do not love the world or anything in the world if it one loves the world love for the father is not in them Father let there be no love of the world in my heart help me to be on guard against worldly traps Lord don't let me fall into habits that Grieve Your Holy Spirit don't let me start acting in ways that might harm

my witness for Christ God we find so often that Satan disguises sin as something good and desirable but Lord help me to not only recognize these works of darkness but Lord also help me to expose them and warn those around me so that they won't be caught unaware God give me the courage and strength to stand up against evil whenever I see it build within me a character that is fully equipped and emboldened to stand for the gospel for the gospel is the only thing with the power to transform lives and hearts in this dark

and sinful World Lord let that transformation begin in my own mind God I ask you to change my desires so that I no longer think or act like the world but instead help me to imitate the example of Christ and all of my conduct instead of bitterness fill me with love Lord instead of jealousy fill me with gratitude break me of every habit and every attitude that resembles the world and father teach me to obey you instead may your Holy Spirit fill me and help me to discern your perfect will for my life God I

know that that I cannot follow your will without letting go of all my Earthly treasures and fully surrendering to you so heavenly father I pray right now that you would consecrate me set me apart for service in your kingdom May the world look at my life and notice that there is a difference and then may they give Glory to the one to whom all glory belongs and that is you my Lord and Savior I ask all these things in Jesus name I pray amen now I would like to highlight Psalm 145 a chapter of Praise

verse 1 to8 says I will exalt you my God the king I will praise your name Forever and Ever every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever great is the Lord and most worthy of Praise His greatness no one can fathom one generation commends your Works to another they tell of your Mighty acts they speak of the Glorious Splendor of your majesty and I will meditate on your wonderful Works they tell of the power of your awesome works and I will Proclaim your great Deeds they celebrate your abundant goodness and

joyfully Sing of Your righteousness the Lord is gracious and compassionate slow to anger and rich in love the Lord is good to all he has compassion on all he has made all your works praise you lord your faithful people extol you they tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might so that all people may know of your Mighty acts and the Glorious Splendor of your kingdom your kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom and your Dominion endures through all generations the Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does

the Lord upholds all who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down the eyes of all look to you and you give them their food at the proper time you open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing the Lord is is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does the Lord is near to all who call on him to all who call on him in truth father as the deer pants for streams of water so my soul pants for you my God my soul thirsts for God for the

Living God only your presence Lord Jesus can bring transformation into our lives only your presence can revive and refresh us father rekindle our flame for you so that we can have a strong desire to chase Holiness and live righteously I invite your presence Lord to remove all of the turmoil and fear around us may your love and mercy reign be our Sanctuary Lord our place of safety and refuge your word in John 7: 38 says he who believes in me as the scripture has said out of his heart will flow rivers of Living Water Lord

I pray that you would touch our lives in such a mighty way that rivers of Living Water will flow continually from our innermost being be glorified now and forever more thank you for listening to this prayer Lord amen today I'd like to remind you that time is short life is short we only have a said number of days on this earth now there is a passage of scripture that puts this into perspective Ecclesiastes 3 verse 1 to8 reads for everything there is a season and a time for every matter under Heaven a time to be

born and a time to die a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted A Time to Kill and a time to heal a time to break down and a time to build up a time to weep and a time to to laugh a time to mourn and a time to dance a time to Cast Away stones and a time to gather Stones together a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek and a time to lose a time to keep and a time to Cast

Away a time to tear and a time to sew a Time time to keep silent and a time to speak a time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a Time For Peace there is a time for everything on this Earth nothing on this side of Heaven lasts forever good times don't last forever but the joy of the Lord is your strength when you believe in Jesus Christ equally bad times tough times don't last forever because the word of God has promised us that Joy comes in the morning so with

he operates with no limitations no boundaries or restrictions we can look back at the word of God and see that he has power and authority and strength over everything and everyone he created the heavens and the Earth he parted the Red Sea he spoke to Nature and it had no choice but to obey he commanded a den full of hungry Lions not to touch Daniel and they listened the Lord commanded a huge fish to swallow Jonah and to keep him in its belly for three days and three nights unharmed and it listened Pharaoh couldn't stand

against him Goliath couldn't stand against the power of God the prophets of Baal were no match for the Lord you see the devil has been defeated and will always be defeated because our God is allmighty our God is all powerful and there is none who can stand against him so as children of God we have every reason to rejoice and declare Romans 8:31 What then shall we say in response to these things if God is for us who can be against us when we need Divine strength from above we can call on a God who

has no limits there is no limit to his strength no limit to his wisdom and knowledge there is no limit to his patience love and mercy Psalm 145 verse 8 and 9 says the Lord is gracious and full of compassion slow to anger and great in Mercy the Lord is good to all and his Tender Mercies are over all his Works God works beyond the limit of man so be encouraged to call on the Lord for strength when the mountain in front of you looks daunting Our God can move mountains he can part Seas speak

to Nature and shut the mouths of hungry Lions dear God your word tells me in Isaiah chter 40 ver 29 that he gives power to the weak and to those who have no might he increases strength in my weakness give me strength Lord Jesus I thank you for the privilege of being able to approach your throne of grace knowing that you love me and care for me Lord when I am weighed down by the cares of Life be my strength when I feel as though I am being crushed by my troubles be my strength Lord

strengthen me to stand strong when my faith is wavering strengthen me in my moments of weakness I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your strength is made perfect when all of my strength is gone your strength is perfect in my weakness I pray that you would equip me to handle all of life's difficulties I am strong in you I am strong with you Lord and I can only overcome Because of You King Jesus Holy Spirit strengthen my faith the word of God tells me in Philippians 4:13 that I can do all things

through Christ who strengthens me Lord I believe that through you I can overcome and have victory in every area of my life I believe that through you I will have the strength to stand Lord I believe in your wonderwork power I believe that the blood of Jesus Christ still has power today the blood of Jesus Christ still has the power to deliver to protect to heal and to defend me and my family from the devil father strengthen me and help me to become a Believer who is fearless and bold because of you when voices of

doubt and fear attempt to drown my faith I pray that the Holy Spirit would remind me that your grace is sufficient and your strength is made perfect in my weakness your word in psalm 46: one reminds me that God is our refuge and strength and everpresent help in trouble thank you for always being there for me Lord I praise you for your consistency because time and time again you have provided me with all that I need to keep standing in faith you are and you have always been faithful to deliver me from all of my

cares and troubles in Matthew 7: 24-27 the Bible says this everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock and the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house but it did not fall because it had been founded on the rock and everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand and the rain fell and the floods came and

the winds blew and beat against that house and great was the fall of it now let us pray dear Lord if we build our lives on the words that you have spoken then our house will not fall our faith will not fail us if our faith is built on you King Jesus your word has assured us that we cannot be moved when The Rains of Life come we will not be swept away when the floods of Life come we will stand strong and stand in faith we will not be shaken when the wind wind of

Life blow we will not fall away because we are standing on the Rock of Ages Jesus Christ and so may your name be praised Lord may you be glorified and honored forgive us if we have ever doubted your word even for a moment forgive us Lord for misplaced trust when we have trusted in people when we have trusted in things instead of you I pray that the Holy Spirit would be our guide May the Holy Spirit teach us how to trust in you Holy Spirit I pray that you would be the strong voice of conviction

in our hearts so that whenever we are confronted by doubt or fear or anxiety remind us what the word of God says whenever we feel weak whenever we feel overwhelmed May the spirit of the Living God remind us what his word says you are worthy to be praised Lord because you have never been defeated you have never lost a battle and the Victory belongs to you Jesus may your name be lifted High always I thank you for your goodness in Jesus name I pray Amen in this world we have to contend with so many different

pressures there's the pressure that comes with family there's the pressure that comes with work there's pressure that comes from society now what we have to realize is that a lot of the pressures we contend with a lot of the weight we carry it all stems from the world's set of standards and do you know what it's easy to fall into Conformity to do what unbelievers do and to be as they are but as Christian men and women we're called to model our lives like Christ we're called to live in a Godly manner fearing the Lord

and obeying him even when it doesn't make sense to the rest of the world Romans 12:2 says do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God what is good and acceptable and perfect the opposite of Conformity is a renewed mind the way God views the world and our lives is C are intuitive to everything our culture teaches therefore we must be willing to let him change us and retach us how to think then we'll be equipped to

live a life that's pleasing to him 1 Peter 1: 14-6 says as obedient children do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance but as he who called you is Holy you also be holy in all your conduct since it is written you shall be holy for I am Holy you see the reason the world acts the way it does is because of ignorance they don't comprehend the Beauty and the worth of the Gospel they don't understand that what God has in store for them is infinitely better than the empty promises of sin

but thank God he has opened our eyes he has called us out of our ignorant ways and into something so much greater second Corinthians 7:1 says since we have these promises beloved let us clean ourselves from every defilement of body and spirit bringing Holiness to completion in the fear of God in the Old Testament the Hebrew people would form ritual cleansings after encountering anything unclean [Music] what if we show that same kind of dedication to the spots of worldliness in our lives what if we were determined to make a clean break with any habit any

Behavior any attitude not pleasing to God 2 Timothy 2: 21 says therefore if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable he will be a vessel for honorable use set apart as holy useful to the master of the house ready for every good work often times we find ourselves acting like the world because we're afraid of stepping on toes we are afraid of the ridicule or the criticism that we might receive if we show ourselves to be true followers of Christ and deep down we are afraid that somehow by letting go of this world we might

be missing out but when we separate ourselves from the world we are not depriving ourselves of any good thing rather we are taking hold of the promises of God Which is far greater now let's go to God together in prayer father God thank you thank you for giving us hope thank you thank you for giving us a purpose beyond what this world has to offer you Lord have been so good and you've done so many good things for us and we thank you Father our prayer today is that we would not be conformed to this

world in any way but instead I pray that the Holy Spirit would move in our lives and stir us up I pray that he'd stir us up so that we can be transformed by the renewal of our minds Lord there is so much pressure in this world today there's pressure to be like everyone else to blend in with a crowd but father I ask that you'd keep us strong King Jesus may we never bow down to pressures of this world we ask that you would give us the grace and strength to be the salt of

the earth to be the light in this world Lord I pray for every person listening for anyone struggling with the pressures of this world give them the strength not to conform to this world give them the strength to stand out to live life differently Lord give them the strength to think Against the Grain and father help us to never conform to the Wicked Ways of this world may we never conform to the world's way of living which leads to death and destruction but may we follow your way which leads to everlasting life father we understand

that we may have to endure ridicule and mockery in this life but I know that our reward in heaven will be so much greater 1 John 2:15 says do not love the world or anything in the world if anyone loves the world love for the father is not in them Father let there be no love of the world in my heart help me to be on guard against worldly traps Lord don't let me fall into habits that Grieve Your Holy Spirit don't let me start acting in ways that might harm my witness for Christ God

we find so often that Satan disguises sin as something good and desirable but Lord help me to not only recognize these works of darkness but Lord also help me to expose them and warn those around me so that they won't be caught unaware God give me the courage and strength to stand up against evil whenever I see it build within me a character that is fully equipped and emboldened to stand for the gospel for the gospel is the only thing with the power to transform lives and hearts in this dark and sinful World Lord let

that transformation begin in my own mind God I ask you to change my desires so that I no longer think or act like the world but instead help me to imitate the the example of Christ and all of my conduct instead of bitterness fill me with love Lord instead of jealousy fill me with gratitude break me of every habit and every attitude that resembles the world and father teach me to obey you instead may your Holy Spirit fill me and help me to discern your perfect will for my life God I know that I cannot

follow your will without letting go of all my Earthly treasures and fully surrendering to you so heavenly father I pray right now that you would consecrate me set me apart for service in your kingdom May the world look at my life and notice that there is a difference and then may they give glory to the one to whom all glory belongs and that is you my Lord and Savior I ask all these things in Jesus name I pray amen now I would like to highlight Psalm 145 a chapter of Praise verse 1 to8 18 says

I will exalt you my God the king I will praise your name Forever and Ever every day I will praise you and extol your name forever and ever great is the Lord and most worthy of Praise His greatness no one can fathom one generation commends your Works to another they tell of your Mighty Acts they speak of the Glorious Splendor of your majesty and I will meditate on your wonderful Works they tell of the power of your awesome works and I will Proclaim your great Deeds they celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully Sing of Your

righteousness the Lord is gracious and compassionate slow to anger and Rich in love the Lord is good to all he has compassion on all he has made all your works praise you lord your faithful people extol you they tell of the glory of your kingdom and speak of your might so that all people may know of your Mighty acts and the Glorious Splendor of your kingdom your kingdom is an everlasting Kingdom and your Dominion endures through all generations the Lord is trustworthy in all he promises and faithful in all he does the Lord upholds all

who fall and lifts up all who are bowed down the eyes of all look to you and you give them their food at the proper time you open your hand and satisfy the desires of every living thing the Lord is righteous in all his ways and faithful in all he does the Lord is near to all who call on him to all who call on him in truth father as the deer pants for streams of water so my soul pants for you my God my soul thirsts for God for the Living God only your presence

Lord Jesus can bring transformation into our lives only your presence can revive and refresh us father rekindle our flame for you so that we can have a strong desire to chase Holiness and live righteously I invite your presence Lord to remove all of the turmoil and fear around us may your love and mercy Reign be our Sanctuary Lord our place of safety and refuge your word in John 7:38 says he who believes in me as the scripture has said out of his heart will flow rivers of Living Water Lord I pray that you would touch

our lives in such a mighty way that rivers of Living Water will flow continually from our innermost being be glorified now and forever more thank you for listening to this prayer Lord amen today I'd like to remind you that time is short life is short we only have a set number of days on this earth now there is a passage of scripture that puts this into perspective Ecclesiastes 3: 1-8 reads for everything there is a season and a time for every matter under Heaven a time to be born and a time to die a time

to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted A Time to Kill and a time to heal a time to break down and a Time time to build up a time to weep and a time to laugh a time to mourn and a time to dance a time to Cast Away stones and a time to gather Stones together a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing a time to seek and a time to lose a time to keep and a time to Cast Away a time to haar and a time

to sew a time to keep silent and a time to speak a time to love and a time to hate a time for war and a Time For Peace there is a time for everything on this Earth nothing on this side of Heaven lasts forever good times don't last forever but the joy of the Lord is your strength when you believe in Jesus Christ equally bad times tough times don't last forever because the word of God has promised us that Joy comes in the morning so with this in mind my message is simple don't wait

until it's too late don't wait until there's not enough time while you're still breathing while while you're still able-bodied while you still can repent repent and live for God while you still can pray without ceasing while you still have time seek Jesus Christ with all of your energy with all of your might while you still can call on God's amazing power to help you to overcome your sinful struggles call on the Holy Ghost to transform your heart and defeat everything that tries to place itself above God in your life while you still have time fight

the good fight of Faith Saints life is short eternity is long and we need to live like it in Hebrews 12:1 the Bible says therefore since we are Sur surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses let us also lay aside every weight and sin which clings so closely and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us the Bible is calling us to strip off every unnecessary weight in our lives do away with the sin which tries to ensnare you and keep you bound people of God Jesus Christ is all that

matters and with the time that you have live with wisdom and make use of today and serve the Lord while you still can our days are numbered and we must live for God so in everything you do put God first in the midst of everything you go through trust God first now let us pray Lord Jesus I pray in agreement with every heart that is listening right now father would you teach us to number our days so that we may have a heart of wisdom teach us to live with the fear of the Lord ruling

our hearts help us to live a life that is led by Godly wisdom your word in Ezekiel 36: 27 says I will put my spirit within you and cause you to walk in my statute and you will keep my judgments and do them God I receive your spirit I receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit within me and cause me you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower me to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower me to walk with the eyes of faith Empower me

to walk in alignment with God's word help me holy spirit so that I can let go of every sin every Idol every addiction that weighs me down in my walk with Christ help me to let go of bitterness help me to forgive and to let go of any anger and resentment give me the grace to live with an attitude that for me to live is Christ and to die is gain eternity is just around the corner help me to live with wisdom father I don't know the day or the hour that you will call my

name to your throne however I pray that when you do call me Lord and I stand before you find me to be a believer who lives in a manner that pleases you with the time that I have here on Earth set my heart Ablaze for you in your kingdom don't allow me to be [Music] lukewarm I have made a decision to follow you Lord and so I pray that you would help me to make the best use of the time I have here on Earth because the days are evil there is a battle to do

right and wrong every day a battle to live in sin or Holiness in this Relentless battle help me to never lose sight of you and your wonderful promises help me never to lose sight of what your word says in John 14: 1:4 let not your hearts be troubled believe in God believe also in me in my father's house are many rooms if it were not so would I've have told you that I go to prepare a place for you and if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and will take

you to myself that where I am you may be also and you know the way to where I am going Lord I embrace This Promise as I live this life father I want to be found to be in obedience to you to your will to your authority to your kingdom and to all your ways Lord I Surrender My Flesh to the will of Jesus Christ I do not want to be led or attracted to Earth Earthly Pleasures Lord as your children give us the mind of Christ where I pursue godliness each and every day I

want to be rooted in your word so that I can stand firm against Satan's schemes Lord Jesus you paid a heavy sacrifice for me on the cross and all thanks and glory be unto you because I now have victory in this life and it's all because of you I don't know what tomorrow will bring but whatever it brings Jesus is with me and in Jesus I have a strong refuge in the day of trouble I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer in the matchless name of Jesus Christ I

pray amen
