Anointed Prayers To Fall Asleep | Peaceful Bible Sleep Talk Down To Invite God's Presence

oh Lord my God when I am an awesome Wonder consider all the works thy hand hath made I see the stars I hear the mighty Thunder thy power throughout the Universe displayed then sings my soul my savior God to thee How Great Thou Art I love this hymn because it simply Praises God and what else can you and I do but admire God's power and greatness all of creation is his the birds the trees the sound of the waves in the ocean when you and I take a moment and look at the beauty of creation

how can you not praise God how can you not say Lord How Great Thou Art Psalms 150:6 says let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord people of god let's take a moment Let Us Praise Jesus Christ each one of us has a story we all have a testimony we all have a past we all have at least one one thing that we can remember God has done for us we have one thing that we can recall and say that was you Lord Jesus so I encourage you to praise him I praise

God because if I look back where I started and I see where I am now it can only be the hand of God I praise God because I look at all the people who spoke down on me I look back at those who walked away from me and said hurtful words behind my back and I see God's goodness in all of that because as a result I became a stronger person I became stronger because I found out that I can only rely on the Lord I became stronger because I realiz iiz that the hurtful words

people said to me they were nothing in comparison to the empowering words that Jesus Christ says about me I am fearfully and wonderfully made I am the head and not the tail I am blessed and highly favored those are the words that I found to be true in my life through God's word I have to praise the Lord because there was a season where I fell ill I thought I was invincible and healthy but out of nowhere here came this test here came this trial but my praise comes from knowing how bad things were for

me in my health but thank you Jesus thank you Lord for healing me it wasn't an instant recovery but it was a recovery nonetheless and it can only have been God I praise God because there was a season where I really lacked financially but somehow I survived I struggled but I never missed a meal and that was all because of God each of us has a story we all have something that we should be praising the Lord for so remember Psalms 150:6 let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord let us pray

all praise belongs to you Lord Jesus all glory and honor Belongs to You King Jesus you are my redeemer My Savior my mouth is filled with your praise declaring your Splendor all day long I praise you because Satan's attacks have no effect on me I Praise You Lord because with you on my side I will always be found to be standing Victorious when the Battle Is Over father the ability for me to live a Victorious Christan Christian life is not down to my gifts or talents it's down to your grace and mercy the ability for

me to live with joy and faith is not a matter of my willpower or a positive mental attitude it's because of my relationship with you Lord and for this reason I praise you forgive me if I've attached my s to things that are detrimental to my faith and growth as a Believer I pray that you would break those ties break the cords of anything that tries to choke my praise break and loose every chain from the enemy loose me from anything designed to hold my hands down so I do not lift them up in praise

and surrender to you lord lord I praise you I lift my hands as a sign of me relinquishing all control to you I am abandoning my ways Lord and instead I am following your word your will and your ways because your will is better than mine I Praise You King Jesus because rather than relying on my own might I can rely on a God who has proven himself time and time again father so long as there is breath in my body so long as I am still standing and I have life in my veins I

will praise you today and forever more so even when disaster strikes even when I feel tired and weary I will praise you and glorify your name today and forever more John 4:4 says God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and Truth teach me how to truly worship you in spirit and Truth King Jesus teach me to be a true worshipper Lord you are my God and I will exalt you and praise your name for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things in my life I will always thank you Lord

each and every day and with all my heart I will tell of all your wonderful Deeds I will testify of all you've done for me I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made you have made me in your image and you have called me loved you have forgiven me you have held me and kept me great are you Lord and most worthy to be praised your greatness is unlike anything we know or can fathom I will praise you at all times I will honor you with all my being your word says in Psalms

95 oh come let us sing to the Lord let us Make a Joyful Noise to the rock of our Salvation let us come into His presence with Thanksgiving let us Make a Joyful Noise to him with songs of praise for the Lord is a great God and a great king Above All Gods how great you are King Jesus how Mighty and awesome you are Lord you are the king of glory the lord who is strong and mighty the Lord who is mighty in battle forever faithful and has NeverEnding Mercy for this reason I will praise

you I will continue to praise you because that's all I can do to show my gratitude and so I honor your holy name for you alone are worthy to be praised amen let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and truth but God being rich in Mercy because of the great love with which he loved us even when we were dead in our trespasses made us alive together with Christ by Grace you have been saved and raised us up with him

and seated us with him in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus because they do not regard The Works of the Lord nor the operation of his hands he shall destroy them and not build them up blessed be the Lord because he has heard the voice of my supplications the Lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusted in him and I am helped therefore my heart greatly rejoices and with my song I will praise him the Lord is their strength and he is the saving Refuge of his anointed but he said to me 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 weakness in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong wrong there are times when you simply need to read and immerse yourself in the word of God and I'm talking about the times when a sermon won't do a word of encouragement won't do it but you simply need to

hear from God himself through his word and so today I pray that as I read these scriptures God's spirit would begin to move in your heart your mind and soul and stir up up your faith I pray that these scriptures would find you wherever you may be in whatever situation you're in and they would remind you that the Lord still cares the Lord still loves you and his promises still stand true 2 Corinthians 1: 3- 4 praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of

All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God I want you to take away a few things from this passage our God is a God who has and shows compassion he is a God who has given us the wonderful Holy Spirit to comfort Us in all our trials and troubles so what you face may be painful yes it may be unpleasant but one thing remains true according to the word of God and that is the fact that we serve

a compassionate and loving God one who comforts Us in all our troubles further scriptures worth meditating are on Romans 1513 now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace and believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me I like how the psalmist here says even though even though I walk through the darkest Valley he he might as well have

said it doesn't matter where I walk even though it looks bad I will fear no evil because you are with me even though it seems like there's no hope I will fear no evil because you are with me even though it appears to be over I will fear no evil because you are with me we need to be people who have this kind of Faith people that have even though kind of Faith because when all is said and done Jesus Christ is with us and if God be with us who who can be against us

furthermore Romans 8: 28 says and we know that all things work together for good to those who love God to those who are the called according to his purpose Pur you see all of these scriptures there are many more in the Bible but all of these scriptures tell you in different ways that God cares for you God cares about you God is looking out for you God is working things out in your favor God will order your steps and I pray that the Lord would open the ears of someone who needs to hear this someone

who perhaps has a heavy heart or a broken heart to that person I want to say look to Jesus have faith in Jesus hold on to Jesus Christ of Nazareth and he will surely see you through now let us pray Lord God Almighty this world can be a dark place but we look to you Jesus to be the bright lamp that guides our feet I pray oh Lord that every past hurt every past mistake or past loss that weighs heavy on the heart of whoever is listening may be removed by your Everlasting power Philippians 4

verses 6 to8 do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things Our Hope For Tomorrow Is Anchored in you because you never fail our faith is in you because you are faithful even when we

are faithless we choose to come to you we choose to set our minds on your word we make the choice to trust you no matter the pain or the circumstance we even choose to pray today despite all that we face and in line with your word we choose not to be anxious not to worry we choose to believe that you're always with us and in control our healing Is Anchored In You Because by your stripes we are healed I pray for everyone listening right now and declare that broken hearts are mended today in the name

of Jesus troubled minds are given peace I ask you Holy Spirit to be so close to us that we can feel your presence in our hearts and in our homes we cast all our burdens to you Lord we lean on you where else can we run to but to you you have delivered and healed in the past and you will do it again in every season of Our Lives May you lead us God thank you that you reminded us throughout your word we do not face the storms alone but you are always with us Whispering

calm speaking peace bringing rest to our souls and God we believe you just as your word says in the book of 2 Corinthians we may be afflicted in every way but we are not crushed we may be perplexed but we are not driven to despair we may be persecuted but we are not forsaken struck down but not destroyed I thank you for caring for us I thank you that the Peace of your loving and strong presence guards and protects the hearts and minds of each person listening father I thank you for listening to this prayer

only the peace that comes from you will calm our hearts and sustain us through the Troubles of life I pray that you will help us to not let our hearts be troubled because that's not not your will for us be blessed now and forever more Lord Jesus [Music] amen praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God now may the

god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true

whatever is Noble what whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things one of the most extraordinary things to happen in the Bible can be found in John 13: 3-8 and before I read this passage of scripture I want you to understand that when Jesus was here on this Earth he was born of a virgin and lived on this Earth but knew no sin he was fully human in the sense that he could only be in one place at one time he wept

he felt physical tiredness however Jesus was fully the Son of God in the sense that he could perform the impossible he could speak life into the cold body of Lazarus he could speak to Nature and it would obey now Hebrews 4:1 15 says for we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations but one who has been tempted knowing exactly how it feels to be human in every respect as we are yet without committing any sin our Lord knew pain he knew hunger he knew tiredness just

like every other human but despite that he was still powerful enough to walk on water Jesus while on this Earth fully man and fully God he was still powerful enough to speak to the wind and it obeyed he was too powerful for the grave to hold him and so it is with this understanding that I find John 13: 3-8 to be extraordinary because the Bible says Jes Jesus knowing that the father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God Rose from supper and laid aside

his garments took a towel and girded himself after that he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples feet and to wipe them with the towel with which he was GED then he came to Simon Peter and Peter said to him Lord are you washing my feet Jesus answered and said to him what I am doing you do not understand now but you will know after this Peter said to him you shall never wash my feet Jesus answered him if I do not wash you you have no part with me now the

reason that I find this passage of scripture so powerful and challenging at the same time is because Jesus Christ the son of God is serving his disciples and washing their feet this is an act of incredible humility and it makes me think if Jesus Christ was humble enough to serve and wash the feet of his disciples what about me what can I say that I am doing for the Lord what can I say I'm doing to serve God now my brothers and sisters I want to encourage you to have a servant's heart a heart that

seeks to serve the Lord too many of us are focused on what God can do for us we're focused on what God can bless us with however how many of us seek to be servants in God's kingdom how many of us seek to give their time their energy and resources to serve the body of Christ I believe that a Christian who bears fruit in God's kingdom is one who serves and so I encourage you to stop living a life that is stagnant and lifeless serve God stop living a life that is only concerned with Self

Serve God stop living a selfish life where you simply want this and want that and prayer request after prayer request is you asking for more things no this is not the way to live live for Jesus Christ and you do this by taking up your cross and crucifying the flesh meaning you stop asking God what can you do for me but you begin to ask God how can I serve you now let us pray dear Lord Give Me A Heart That seeks to serve you give me a heart that finds satisfaction in serving you may

I not be the kind of person who is always concerned about my own selfish needs and wants but would change my heart and make me to become someone who is concerned about the kingdom of God God above all other things together with every person listening right now we declare that it is our desire to serve you King Jesus to believe in you we hold on to you we depend on you and we rely on you some trust in chariots and summon horses but we trust in the name of the Lord our god father there are

those who are listening right now and they are seeking love and unity in their homes may you flood their lives with more of you because you alone can bring love into the hearts of man thank you for dying on the cross for us we did nothing to deserve that kind of love we did nothing to earn that kind of love but you still gave your life for us and all we can do is thank you and open our hearts to you so that you can use us in your kingdom Holy Spirit help us to be

consistent help us to be consistent with prayer help us to be consistent when it comes to the reading of your word Holy Spirit help us to set our eyes always before the Lord so that if all is well with me my eyes remain on Jesus Christ and if I am struggling and can't seem to find a way out of the mess I'm in then my eyes are still on Jesus Lord I praise you because you are a savior to those who need to be saved you are shelter to those who seek Refuge a protector to

those who need safety I worship you lord your word in Isaiah 54:10 says for the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but my kindness shall not depart from you nor shall my Covenant of peace be removed says the Lord who has mercy on you we bless your name Master amen Psalm 90 and the reason I think that this is a great Psalm to meditate on is because it reveals just how big and Limitless and set apart God is our understanding as humans is too limited for us to even understand God who has unfailing

love but also has righteous judgment and so this Psalm touches on many different themes from the brevity of life and our need to live with wisdom and so Psalm 90:1 to 17 the Bible reads Lord you have been our Dwelling Place in all generations before the mountains were brought forth wherever you had formed the earth and the world from Everlasting to Everlasting you are God you return man to dust and say return oh children of man for a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is passed or as a watch in

the night you sweep them away with a flood they are like a dream like grass that is renewed in the morning in the morning it flourishes and is renewed in the evening it fades and Withers for we are brought to an end by your anger by your wrath we are dismayed you may have set our iniquities before you our secret sins in the light of your presence for all our days pass away under your wrath we bring our years to an end like a sigh the years of our life are 70 or even by reason

of strength 80 yet their span is but toil and trouble they are soon gone and we fly away who considers the power of your anger and your wrath according to the fear of you so teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom return O Lord how long have pity on your servants satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love that we may rejoice and be glad all our days make us glad for as many days as you have Afflicted us and for as many years as we have seen

evil let your work be shown to your servants and your glorious power to their children let the favor of the Lord Our God be upon us and establish the work of our hands upon us yes establish the work of our hands the Bible tells us that a thousand years to us is like a day to God this shows us that God operates on a different level to us his ways are higher than ours and it's with this understanding that I want to encourage you to go to God teach us to number our days that we

may gain a heart of wisdom when you appreciate time and have the understanding that each of our days is numbered that is when you develop wisdom in your heart if you read Romans chap 13 from verse 9 to 11 the Bible tells you not to leave any debt outstanding not to commit adultery not to steal not to covet but instead to love your neighbor as you love yourself and it sums all of this up in verse 11 as it says besides this you know the time that the hour has come for you to wake from

sleep for salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed listen there should be an urgency about time in our lives as Believers we only have so much time to get our lives together the second lesson that life has taught me from personal experience and also from watching others is that not every storm not every crisis not every challenge or problem is bad for you what I mean is that some situations we encounter yes they'll be difficult they will be painful but in the long run that storm it will be for your good

that crisis will work out for your good that challenge will make you stronger you see someone will get sick but recover in such a way that they can only acknowledge the hand of God the miracle working power of the blood of Jesus someone's plans will get disrupted only to find that that disruption LED them to a better destination someone's plans will get delayed but that's perhaps God's way of saying not yet I have something better in store I have a better time in mind every crisis in life is not bad for you sometimes God uses

adversity God places you in tough situations only for you to grow for you to develop stronger faith for you to mature so the next time a problem presents itself the next time you face a crisis just stop for a moment and ask God what do you want me to learn from this what do you want to develop Within [Music] Me Now let us pray father your word in James 4:14 says whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow for what is your life it is even a vapor that appears for a little time and

then vanishes away this is a sobering reminder of how short the life we live on this Earth really is and so Lord Jesus right now we run to you and we cling to you because salvation can only be found in you eternal life can only be found in you help us master so that we may live this life For Your Glory help us to live a life that is always seeking to obey your will and your commands God I desire to Be an Effective Christian one who has a burning passion to witness about the amazing

love of Jesus Christ father give us hearts that are sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit give us hearts that are sensitive to the voice of Jesus Christ so that whenever you speak we'll hear your voice and we'll know your voice help us to tune out every voice from this world and give us a spirit that is able to discern good from Evil and Lord as this world keeps drifting far further from you every day I pray that I would draw closer and closer to you every day as your children father give us the

wisdom and ability to discern and recognize when Satan is trying to deceive us and lead us away from you father help us so that we would not backslide in our faith or begin to compromise with sin help us to be Faithful Servants up until the day you return Lord make our hearts receptive to you help us to recognize your hand in every Earthly matter your word in Ezekiel 36: 26 and 27 say I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you I will take the Heart of Stone out of your

flesh and give you a heart of Flesh 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 right now we receive your spirit we receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit within me and you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower us to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower us to walk with the eyes of Faith Empower us to walk in alignment with God's word help us holy spirit so that

we can let go of every sin every Idol every addiction that weighs us down and instead we can walk our walk with Christ set my heart Ablaze for you and for your kingdom Lord don't allow me to be lukewarm stir my spirit up and awaken a hunger Within Me for you and you alone Lord I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer it's in the matchless name of Jesus Christ that I pray amen the Bible tells us a powerful story of healing in Luke 8: 43-44 which says and there

was a woman who had a dischar charge of blood for 12 years and though she had spent all her living on Physicians she could not be healed by anyone she came up behind him and touched The Fringe of His Garment and immediately her discharge of blood ceased now I have a question if the woman with the issue of blood hadn't suffered for so long would she have known that Jesus Is A Healer in Genesis 37 verse 23- 24 the Bible says so it came to pass when Joseph had come to his brothers that they stripped

Joseph of his tunic the tunic of Many Colors that was on him then they took him and cast him into a pit and the pit was empty there was no water in it later on in the Bible Genesis 42:7 says now Joseph was governor over the land and it was he who sold to all the people of the land and Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the Earth so if Joseph wasn't rejected by his brothers if he wasn't stripped and thrown into a pit if he wasn't sold as a

slave would Joseph have ever known that God can take someone who was rejected by his own family members and favor that person so much so that he could become one of the most powerful men in the land at that time time if job had not lost everything if he hadn't lost his sons and daughters if he hadn't lost his oxen his donkeys his sheep and his wealth if he had not lost his health even then would job had ever known that God can restore double what the enemy stole if Daniel wasn't thrown into to Alliance

Den would he have ever known that God's protection is far better far superior than anything else in the world Paul and Silas if they were never arrested and placed in Chains tell me how could they have known that God's power can set anyone free from any type of bondage and throughout the Bible there are people who have been through tough and painful situations but those tough and painful situations all offered an opportunity for God to demonstrate that he is the ultimate healer he is the most Superior form of protection he is the one who can

restore and make a garden from a desert he is the only one who can favor someone who's been rejected and lift them up so that they can dine on a table in the presence of their enemies Saints believe in God there is a reason for the season you're in now let us pray King Jesus the almighty one teach us to be more trusting help us to build build and strengthen our faith May the Holy Ghost teach us and remind us that the troubles we face the pain that we feel the people who reject us can

all be a blessing in disguise the tough situations and trials we go through can be the Lord setting us up positioning us for increase for healing for breakthrough Holy Spirit help us to see that the Lord sometimes uses our troubles to remind us that he is a deliverer he is a savior he is our hope and rescue he is the Chief Cornerstone and the solution to all of our problems father even though it may hurt when trouble come about give us the grace to keep an eternal perspective second Corinthians 4:17 says for our light Affliction

which is but for a moment is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of Glory so help us to have an attitude that remains positive and hopeful in you Lord Jesus as for the troubles we Face we pray Lord that no matter how difficult or how overbearing they may seem at the time they are in fact light because they are only for a short while and they pale in comparison to the joy that awaits Us in heaven you Lord are faithful to empower you are faithful to help us to stand strong and

Victorious and not to be defeated and because Jesus is Victorious over Satan we too can walk in Victory so we declare that through the grace of God we have the faith to stand against Satan's attacks and win we are not defeated by our troubles in jesus' name we are not oped oppressed by our afflictions in jesus' name as long as we hold on to you Lord Jesus we will live and enjoy a Victorious Life we will know you as a Healer we will know you as the one who can restore double With the Enemy lost

we will know you as our shield and protector Enlighten our spirits father and help us to see through the eyes of faith help us Lord so that the eyes of Faith may lead us to walk in your will father we believe that the battle has already been one because you have risen from the grace though this world we may have tribulation we will take heart we will be of a good cheer because you have overcome the world your word Lord says in 2 Chronicles 20 verse1 17 you will not have to fight this battle take

up your positions stand firm and see the Deliverance the Lord will give you Judah in Jerusalem do not be afraid do not be discouraged go out to face them tomorrow and the Lord Lord will be with you we speak this word over our lives we do not need to fight our own battles because God will fight for us we will stand firm and stand in faith in the faith that I am assured of nothing less than Victory I will continue to stand in the faith that I am an overcomer through Christ who strengthens me thank

you for the victory thank you for Everlasting peace thank you for an abundance of blessings and above all thank you for showing me mercy in jesus' name I pray amen and amen the Bible says something interesting in 1st Samuel 26:23 it says the Lord re rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness the Lord delivered you into my hands today but I would not lay a hand on the Lord's anointed read that carefully the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and their faithfulness that's a powerful verse and it makes me think how do I stand before

the Lord does he look at me and see a faithful heart does he look at me and see a committed Christian when God looks down from heaven does he see me as a Believer who is striving to live in righteousness now the topic of righteousness is one that I find intriguing we're called to righteousness however we as people are far from righteous so what is it that we need to do if the Lord rewards every man for his righteousness but yet we're born in sin how will we be rewarded well to begin with Saints I

believe that when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior Galatians 2:20 can be said of Our Lives because the Bible says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me a human being is Born Into sin this is clear because Psalm 51:5 explicitly States behold I was brought forth in iniquity and in sin did my mother conceive me so I may be

born in sin but when I repent and give my life to Jesus Christ I can then say what Galatians 2:20 says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me so Christ now lives in me therefore when it comes to us chasing righteousness it comes down to how much of ourselves have we yielded to Christ do we love the Lord Our God with all

our heart soul and mind or do we place him behind Earthly Pleasures material things sinful things that we can't let go of Deuteronomy 6: 24-2 says and the Lord commanded us to observe all these statutes to fear the lord Our God for our good always that he might preserve Us Alive as it is this day then it will be righteous for us if we are careful to observe all the Commandments before the Lord Our God as he has commanded us Saints it will be righteousness for us if we follow all his statutes his Commandments and

to fear Him 1st Samuel 26:23 says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness now let us pray dear Lord Jesus you alone Are Holy you alone are righteous father if we try to live a life that is pleasing to you through our own strength then we will fail we need your grace Lord we need your mercy but as the Bible says I have been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me as you live within me Lord you can displace all evil from within me remove

everything that is ungodly remove everything that is corrupt remove everything that is unclean Lord purify and cleanse us master your word in Romans 6: 17-8 but thanks be to God that though you used to be slaves to sin you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed Your Allegiance you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness help us to conform to your will father take the lead in our lives may your Commandments outweigh our own selfish Ambitions we desire to walk in a manner

that's pleasing and acceptable in your your sight we desire to be slaves to righteousness we desire to walk in a manner that is pure a manner that's Christlike enable us to walk in the way of righteousness that leads to life not to death you are a God who takes pleasure in those who pursue righteousness may you find us to be such a people Lord go before us order our steps God so that I may not walk in unrighteousness your word in Psalm 1: 1-2 it says blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel

of the ungodly nor stands in the path of Sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful but his Delight is in the law of the Lord and in his law he meditates day and night guide us King Jesus so that we would not be found found walking in the counsel of those who are sinful and wicked give us hearts that Delight in your word it's in you Jesus that we seek strength it's in you Lord that we can overcome sin you're a God who never disappoints the one who gives me peace of mind Direction

and true leadership so King Jesus we bow down to you we bow down to your Authority psalm 23:3 says he restores my soul he leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake we have faith in you Lord because unlike the people on this Earth unlike the ways of this Earth You will never lead us astray you will never lead us to destruction it's only you King Jesus that can lead us through the valley of the shadow of death and still offer us peace it's you who can lead us through the darkest valleys

and still offer us joy May the fear of the Lord rest upon us as we pursue righteousness in this life the Bible says in Proverbs 9:10 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is Insight may you give us wisdom in our lives Lord give us a hunger to pursue righteousness our dear Lord and Master be praised and be glorified thank you for hearing our prayer it's in Jesus name that we pray amen oh Lord my God when I am an awesome Wonder consider all the works

thy hand hath made I see the stars I hear the the mighty Thunder thy power throughout the Universe displayed then sings my soul my savior God to thee How Great Thou Art I love this hymn because it simply Praises God and what else can you and I do but admire God's power and greatness all of creation is his the birds the trees the sound of the waves in the ocean when you and I take a moment and look at the beauty of creation how can you not praise God how can you not say Lord How

Great Thou Art Psalms 150:6 says let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord people of god let's take a moment Let Us Praise Jesus Christ each one of us has a story we all have a testimony we all have a past we all have at least one thing that we can remember God has done for us we have one thing that we can recall and say that was you Lord Jesus so I encourage you to praise him I praise God because if I look back where I started and I see where I

am now it can only be the hand of God I praise God because I looked at all the people who spoke down on me I look back at those who walked away from me and said hurtful words behind my back and I see God's goodness in all of that because as a result I became a stronger person I became stronger because I found out that I can only rely on the Lord I became stronger because I realized that the hurtful words people said to me there were nothing in comparison to the empowering words that Jesus

Christ says about me I am fearfully and wonderfully made I am the head and not the tail I am blessed and highly favored those are the words that I found to be true in my life through God's word I have to praise the Lord because there was a season where I felt ill I thought I was invincible and healthy but out of nowhere here came this test here came this trial but my praise comes from knowing how bad things were for me in my health but thank you Jesus thank you Lord for healing me it

wasn't an instant recovery but it was a recovery nonetheless and it can only have been God I praise God because there was a season where I really lacked financially but somehow I survived I struggled but I never missed a meal and that was all because of God each of us has a story we all have something that we should be praising the Lord for so remember Psalms 150:6 let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord let us pray all praise belongs to you Lord Jesus all glory and honor Belongs to You King

Jesus you are my redeemer My Savior my mouth is filled with your praise declaring your Splendor all day long I praise you because Satan's attacks have no effect on me I Praise You Lord because with you on my side I will always be found to be standing Victorious when the Battle Is Over father the ability for me to live a Victorious Christian life is not down to my gifts or talents it's down to your grace and mercy the ability for me to live with joy and faith is not a matter of my my willpower or

a positive mental attitude it's because of my relationship with you Lord and for this reason I praise you forgive me if I've attached myself to things that are detrimental to my faith and growth as a Believer I pray that you would break those ties break the cords of anything that tries to choke my praise break and loose every chain from the enemy loose me from anything designed to hold my hands down so I do not lift them up in praise and surrender to you lord lord I praise you I lift my hands as a sign

of me relinquishing all control to you I am abandoning my ways Lord and instead I am following your word your will and and your ways because your will is better than mine I Praise You King Jesus because rather than relying on my own might I can rely on a God who has proven himself time and time again father so long as there is breath in my body so long as I am still standing and I have life in my vein means I will praise you today and forever more so even when disaster strikes even when

I feel tired and weary I will praise you and glorify your name today and forever more John 4: 24 says God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and Truth teach me how to truly worship you in spirit and Truth King Jesus teach me to be a true worshipper Lord you are my God and I will exalt you and praise your name for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things in my life I will always thank you Lord each and every day and with all all my heart I will tell

of all your wonderful Deeds I will testify of all you've done for me I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made you have made me in your image and you have called me loved you have forgiven me you have held me and kept me great are you Lord and most worthy to be praised your greatness is unlike anything we know or can fathom I will praise you at all times I will honor you with all my being your word says in Psalms 95 oh come let us sing to the Lord let us Make

a Joyful Noise to the rock of our Salvation let us come into His presence with Thanksgiving let us make a joy ful noise to him with songs of praise for the Lord is a great God and a great king Above All Gods how great you are King Jesus how Mighty and awesome you are Lord you are the king of glory the lord who is strong and mighty the Lord who is mighty in battle forever faithful and has NeverEnding Mercy for this reason I will praise you I will continue to praise you because that's all I

can do to show my gratitude and so I honor your holy name for you alone are worthy to be praised amen let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and truth but God being rich in Mercy because of the great love with which he loved us even when we were dead in our trespasses made us alive together with Christ by Grace you have been saved and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the Heavenly places in Christ

Jesus because they do not regard The Works of the Lord nor the operation of his hands he shall destroy them and not build them up blessed be the Lord because he has heard the voice of my supplications the Lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusted in him and I am helped therefore my heart greatly rejoices and with my song I will praise him the Lord is their strength and he is the saving Refuge of his anointed but he said to me 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 weakness in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong there are times when you simply need to read and immerse yourself in the word of God and I'm talking about the times when a sermon won't do a word of encouragement won't do it but you simply need to hear from God himself through his word and so today I pray

that as I read these scriptures God's spirit would begin to move in your heart your mind and soul and stir up your faith I pray that these scriptures would find you wherever you may be in whatever situation you're in and they would remind you that the Lord still cares the Lord still loves you and his promises still stand true 2 Corinthians 1: 3-4 praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort

those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God I want you to take away a few things from this passage our God is a God who has and shows compassion he is a God who has given us the wonderful Holy Spirit to comfort Us in all our trials and troubles so what you face may be painful yes it may be unpleasant but one thing remains true according to the word of God and that is the fact that we serve a compassionate and loving God one who comforts Us in all our troubles further

scriptures worth meditating are on Romans 1513 now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23 verse4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will Fe fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me I like how the psalmist here says even though even though I walk through the darkest Valley he might as well have said it doesn't matter where I walk even though it looks bad I

will fear no evil because you are with me even though it seems like there's no hope I will fear no evil because you are with me even though it appears to be over I will fear no evil because you are with me we need to be people who have this kind of Faith people that have even though kind of Faith because when all is said and done Jesus Christ is with us and if God be with us who who can be against us furthermore Romans 8:28 says and we know that all things work together for

good to those who love God to those who are the called according to his purpose you see all of these scriptures there are many more in the Bible but all of these scriptures tell you in different ways that God cares for you God cares about you God is looking looking out for you God is working things out in your favor God will order your steps and I pray that the Lord would open the ears of someone who needs to hear this someone who perhaps has a heavy heart or a broken heart to that person I

want to say look to Jesus have faith in Jesus hold on to Jesus Christ of Nazareth and he will surely see you through now let us pray Lord God Almighty this world can be a dark place but we look to you Jesus to be the bright lamp that guides our feet I pray oh Lord that every past hurt every past mistake or past loss that weighs heavy on the heart of whoever is listening may be removed by your Everlasting power Philippians 4: 6-8 do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and

petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things Our Hope For Tomorrow Is Anchored in you because you never fail our faith is in you because you are faithful even when we are faithless we choose to come to you we choose to set our minds on your word

we make the choice to trust you no matter the pain or the circumstance we even choose to pray today despite all that we face and in line with your word we choose not to be anxious not to worry we choose to believe that you're always with us and in control our healing is anchored in you because by your stripes we are healed I pray for everyone listening right now and declare that broken hearts are mended today in the name of Jesus troubled minds are given peace I ask you Holy Spirit to be so close to

us that we can feel your presence in our hearts and in our homes we cast all our burdens to you Lord we lean on you where else can we run to but to you you have delivered and healed in the past and you will do it again in every season of Our Lives May you lead us God thank you that you reminded us throughout your word we do not face the storms alone but you are always with us Whispering calm speaking peace bringing rest to our souls and God we believe you just as your word

says in the book of 2 Corinthians we may be afflicted in every way but we are not crushed we may be perplexed but we are not driven to despair we may be persecuted but we are not forsaken struck down but not destroyed I thank you for caring for us I thank you that the Peace of your loving and strong presence guards and protects the hearts and minds of each person listening father I thank you for listening to this prayer only the peace that comes from you will calm our hearts and sustain us through the Troubles

of life I pray that you will help us to not let our hearts be troubled because that's not your will for us be blessed now and forever more Lord Jesus amen praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jes Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope

by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is

excellent or praiseworthy think about such things one of the most extraordinary things to happen in the Bible can be found in John chapter 13: 3-8 and before I read this passage of scripture I want you to understand that when Jesus was here on this Earth he was born of a virgin and lived on this Earth but knew no sin he was fully human in the SE that he could only be in one place at one time he wept he felt physical tiredness however Jesus was fully the Son of God in the sense that he could

perform the impossible he could speak life into the cold body of Lazarus he could speak to Nature and it would obey now Hebrews 4: 15 says for we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations but one who has been tempted knowing exactly how it feels to be human in every respect as we are yet without committing any sin our Lord knew knew pain he knew hunger he knew tiredness just like every other human but despite that he was still powerful enough to walk on water Jesus

while on this Earth fully man and fully God he was still powerful enough to speak to the wind and it obeyed he was too powerful for the grave to hold him and so it is with this understanding that I find John 13 Verse 3 to8 to be extraordinary because the Bible says Jesus knowing that the father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God Rose from supper and laid aside his garments took a towel and girded himself after that he poured water into a basin

and began to wash the disciples feet and to wipe them with the towel with which he was GED then he came to Simon Peter and Peter said to him Lord are you washing my feet Jesus answered and and said to him what I am doing you do not understand now but you will know after this Peter said to him you shall never wash my feet Jesus answered him if I do not wash you you have no part with me now the reason that I find this passage of scripture so powerful and challenging at the same

time is because Jesus Christ the son of God is serving his disciples and washing their feet this is an act of incredible humility and it makes me think if Jesus Christ was humble enough to serve and wash the feet of his disciples what about me what can I say that I am doing for the Lord Lord what can I say I'm doing to serve God now my brothers and sisters I want to encourage you to have a servant's heart a heart that seeks to serve the Lord too many of us are focused on what God

can do for us we're focused on what God can bless us with however how many of us seek to be servant in God's kingdom how many of us seek to give their time their energy and resources to serve the body of Christ I believe that a Christian who bears fruit in God's kingdom is one who serves and so I encourage you to stop living a life that is stagnant and lifeless serve God stop stop living a life that is only concerned with Self Serve God stop living a selfish life where you simply want this and

want that and prayer request after prayer request is you asking for more things no this is not the way to live live for Jesus Christ and you do this by taking up your cross and crucifying the flesh meaning you stop asking God what can you do for me but you begin to ask God how can I serve you now let us pray dear Lord Give Me A Heart That seeks to serve you give me a heart that finds satisfaction in serving you may I not be the kind of person who is always concerned about my

own selfish needs and wants but would change my heart and make me to become someone who is concerned about the kingdom of God above all other things together with every person listening right now we declare that it is our desire to serve you King Jesus to believe in you we hold on to you we depend on you and we rely on you some trust in chariots and some in horses but we trust in the name of the Lord our god father there are those who are listening right now and they are seeking love and unity

in their homes may you flood their lives with more of you because you alone can bring love into the hearts of man thank you for dying on the cross for us we did nothing to deserve that kind of love we did nothing to earn that kind of love but you still gave your life for us and all we can do is thank you and open our hearts to you so that you can use us in your kingdom Holy Spirit help us to be consistent help us to be consistent with prayer help us to be consistent

when it comes to the reading of your word Holy Spirit help us to set our eyes always before the Lord so that if all is well with me my eyes remain on Jesus Christ and if I am struggling and can't seem to find a way out of the mess I'm in then my eyes are still on Jesus Lord I praise you because you are a savior to those who need to be saved you are shelter to those who seek Refuge a protector to those who need safety I worship you lord your word is in Isaiah

54:10 says for the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but my kindness shall not depart from you nor shall my Covenant of peace be removed says the Lord who has mercy on you we bless your name Master amen Psalm 90 and the reason I think that this is a great Psalm to meditate on is because it reveals just how big and Limitless and set apart God is our understanding as humans is too limited for us to even understand a God who has unfailing love but also has righteous judgment and so this Psalm touches

on many different themes from the brevity of life and our need to live with wisdom and so Psalm 90:1 to1 17 the Bible reads Lord you have been our Dwelling Place in all generations before the mountains were brought forth wherever you had formed the earth and the world from Everlasting to Everlasting you are God you return man to dust and say return oh children of man for a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is passed or as a watch in the night you sweep them away with a flood they are

like a dream like grass that is renewed in the morning in the morning it flourishes and is renewed in the evening it fades and Withers for we are brought to an end by your anger by your wrath we are dismayed you may have set our iniquities before you our secret sins in the light of your presence for all our days pass away under your wrath we bring our years to an end like a sigh the years of our life are 70 or even by reason of strength 80 yet their span is but toil and trouble

they are soon gone and we fly away who considers the power of your anger and your wrath according to the fear of you so teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom return O Lord how long WR have pity on your servants satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love that we may rejoice and be glad all our days make us glad for as many days as you have Afflicted us and for as many years as we have seen evil let your work be shown to your servants and

your glorious power to their children let the favor of the Lord Our God be upon us and establish the work of our hands upon us yes establish the work of our hands the Bible tells us that a thousand years to us is like a day to God this shows us that God operates on a different level to us his ways are higher than ours and it's with this understanding that I want to encourage you to go to God teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom when you appreciate time

and have the understanding that each of our days is numbered that is when you develop wisdom in your heart if you read Romans chapter 13 from verse 9 to 11 the Bible tells you not to leave any debt outstanding not to commit adultery not to steal not to covet but instead to love your neighbor as you love yourself and it sums all of this up in verse 11 as it says besides this you know the time that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep for salvation is nearer to us now than when

we first believed listen there should be an urgency about time in our lives as Believers we only have so much time to get our lives together the second lesson that life has taught me from personal experience and also from watching others is that not every storm not every crisis not every challeng or problem is bad for you what I mean is that some situations we encounter yes they'll be difficult they will be painful but in the long run that storm it will be for your good that crisis will work out for your good that challenge

will make you stronger you see someone will get sick but recover in such a way that they can only acknowledge the hand of God the miracle working power of the blood of Jesus someone's plans will get disrupted only to find that that disruption LED them to a better destination someone's plans will get delayed but that's perhaps God's way of saying not yet I have something better in store I have a better time in mind every crisis in life is not bad for you sometimes God uses adversity God places you in tough situations only for you

to grow for you to develop stronger faith for you to mature so the next time a problem presents itself the next time you face of Crisis just stop for a moment and ask God what do you want me to learn from this what do you want to develop Within Me Now let us pray father your word in James 4:14 says whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow for what is your life it is even a vapor that appears ears for a little time and then vanishes away this is a sobering reminder of how

short the life we live on this Earth really is and so Lord Jesus right now we run to you and we cling to you because salvation can only be found in you eternal life can only be found in you help us master so that we may live this life For Your Glory help us to live a life that is always seeking to obey your will and your commands God I desire to Be an Effective Christian one who has a burning passion to witness about the amazing love of Jesus Christ father give us hearts that are

sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit give us hearts that are sensitive to the voice of Jesus Christ so that whenever you speak we'll hear your voice voice and will'll know your voice help us to tune out every voice from this world and give us a spirit that is able to discern good from Evil and Lord as this world keeps drifting farther from you every day I pray that I would draw closer and closer to you every day as your children father give us the wisdom and ability to discern and recognize when Satan is

is trying to deceive us and lead us away from you father help us so that we would not backslide in our faith or begin to compromise with sin help us to be Faithful Servants up until the day you return Lord make our hearts receptive to you help us to recognize your hand in every Earthly matter your word in Ezekiel 36: 26 and 27 say I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you I will take the Heart of Stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of Flesh 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 right now we receive your spirit we receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit with in me and you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower us to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower us to walk with the eyes of Faith Empower us to walk in alignment with God's word help us holy spirit so that we can let go of every sin every

Idol every addiction that weighs us down and instead we can walk our walk with Christ set my heart Ablaze for you and for your kingdom Lord don't allow me to be lukewarm stir my spirit up and awaken a hunger within me for you and you alone Lord I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer it's in the matchless name of Jesus Christ that I pray amen the Bible tells us a powerful story of healing in Luke 8 verse 43-44 which says and there was a woman who had a discharge

of blood for 12 years and though she had spent all her living on Physicians she could not be healed by anyone she came up behind him and touched The Fringe of His Garment and immediately her discharge of blood ceased now I have a question if the woman with the issue of blood hadn't suffered for so long would she have known that Jesus Is A Healer in Genesis 37 verse 23- 24 the Bible says so it came to pass when Joseph had come to his brothers that they stripped Joseph of his tunic the tunic of Many

Colors that was on him then they took him and cast him into a pit and the pit was empty there was no water in it later on in the Bible Genesis 42:7 says now Joseph was governor over the land and it was he who sold to all the people of the land and Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the Earth so if Joseph wasn't rejected by his brothers if he wasn't stripped and thrown into a pit if he wasn't sold as a slave would Joseph have ever known that God

can take someone who was rejected by his own family members and favor that person so much so that he could become one of the most powerful men in the land at that time if job had not lost everything if he hadn't lost his sons and daughters if he hadn't lost his oxen his donkeys his sheep and his wealth if he had not lost his health even then would job had ever known that God can restore double what the enemy stole if Daniel wasn't thrown into allian Den would he have ever known that God's protection is

far better far superior than anything else in the world Paul and Silas if they were never arrested and placed in Chains tell me how could they have known that God's power can set anyone free from any type of bondage and throughout the Bible there are people who have been through tough and painful situations but those tough and painful situations all offered an opportunity for God to demonst rate that he is the ultimate healer he is the most Superior form of protection he is the one who can restore and make a garden from a desert he

is the only one who can favor someone who's been rejected and lift them up so that they can dine on a table in the presence of their enemies Saints believe in God there is a reason for this season you're in now let us pray King Jesus the almighty one teach us to be more trusting help us to build and strengthen our faith May the Holy Ghost teach us and remind us that the troubles we face the pain that we feel the people who reject us can all be a blessing in disguise the tough situations and

trials we go through can be the Lord setting us up positioning us for increase for healing for breakthrough Holy Spirit help us to see that the Lord sometimes uses our troubles to remind us that he is a deliverer he is a savior he is our hope and rescue he is the Chief Cornerstone and the solution to all of our problems father even though it may hurt when troubles come about give us the grace to keep an eternal perspective 2 Corinthians 4:1 17 says for our light Affliction which is but for a moment is working for

us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of Glory so help us to have an attitude that remains positive and hopeful in you Lord Jesus as for the troubles we Face we pray Lord that no matter how difficult or how overbearing they may seem at the time they are in fact light because they are only for a short while and they pale in comparison to the joy that awaits Us in heaven you Lord are faithful to empower you are faithful to help us to stand strong and Victorious and not to be defeated and because Jesus

is Victorious over Satan we too can walk in Victory so we declare that through the grace of God we have the faith to stand against Satan's attacks and win we are not defeated by our troubles in jesus' name we are not oppressed by our afflictions in jesus' name as long as we hold on to you Lord Jesus we will live and enjoy a Victorious Life we will know you as a Healer we will know you as the one who can restore double what the enemy lost we will know you as our shield and protector Enlighten

our Spirits father and help us to see through the eyes of faith help us Lord so that the eyes of Faith may lead us to walk in your will father We Believe that the battle has already been won because you have risen from the grace though this world we may have tribulation we will take heart we will be of a good cheer because you have overcome the world your word Lord says in 2 Chronicles 20 verse 17 you will not have to fight this battle take up your positions stand firm and see the Deliverance the

Lord will give you Judah in Jerusalem do not be afraid do not be discouraged go out to face them tomorrow and the Lord will be with you we speak this word over our lives we do not need to fight our own battles because God will fight for us we will stand firm and can stand in faith in the faith that I am assured of nothing less than Victory I will continue to stand in the faith that I am an overcomer through Christ who strengthens me thank you for the victory thank you for Everlasting peace thank

you for an abundance of blessings and above all thank you for showing me mercy in jesus' name I pray amen and [Music] amen the Bible says something interesting in 1st Samuel 26:23 it says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness the Lord delivered you into my hands today but I would not lay a hand on the Lord's anointed read that carefully the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and their faithfulness that's a powerful verse and it makes me think how do I stand before the Lord does he look at me and see a

faithful heart does he look at me and see a committed Christian when God looks down from heaven does he see me as a Believer who is striving to live in righteousness now the topic of righteousness is one that I find intriguing we're called to righteousness however we as people are far from righteous so what is it that we need to do if the Lord rewards every man for his righteousness but yet we're born in sin how will we be rewarded well to begin with Saints I believe that when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord

and savior Galatians 2:20 can be said of Our Lives because the Bible says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me a human being is Born Into sin this is clear because Psalm 51:5 explicitly States behold I was brought forth in iniquity and incend did my mother conceive me so I may be born in sin but when I repent and give my life

to Jesus Christ I can then say what Galatians 2:20 says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God Who Loved Me me and gave himself for me so Christ now lives in me therefore when it comes to us chasing righteousness it comes down to how much of ourselves have we yielded to Christ do we love the Lord Our God with all our heart soul and mind or do we place him

behind Earthly Pleasures material things sinful things that we can't let go of Deuteronomy 6: 24 through 25 says and the Lord commanded us to observe all these statutes to fear the lord Our God for our good always that he might preserve Us Alive as it is this day then it will be righteousness for us if we are careful to observe all the Commandments before the Lord Our God as he has commanded us Saints it will be righteousness for us if we follow all his statutes his Commandments and to fear Him 1st Samuel 26:23 says the

Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness now let us pray dear Lord Jesus you alone Are Holy you alone are righteous father if we try to live a life that is pleasing to you through our own strength then we will fail we need your grace Lord we need your mercy but as the Bible says I have been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me as you live within me Lord you can displace all evil from within me remove everything that is ungodly remove everything that is

corrupt remove everything that is unclean Lord purify and cleanse us master your word in Romans 6 veres 17-8 but thanks be to God that though you used to be slaves to sin you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed Your Allegiance you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness help us to conform to your will father take the lead in our lives may your Commandments outweigh our own selfish Ambitions we desire to walk in a manner that's pleasing and acceptable in your sight

we desire to be slaves to righteousness we desire to walk in a manner that is pure a manner that's Christlike enable us to walk in the way of righteousness that leads to life not to death you are a God who takes pleasure in those who pursue righteousness may you find us to be such a people Lord go before us order our steps God so that I may not walk in unrighteousness your word in Psalm 1 veres 1-2 it says blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly nor nor stands in

the path of Sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful but his Delight is in the law of the Lord and in his law he meditates day and night guide us King Jesus so that we would not be found walking in the counsel of those who are sinful and wicked give us hearts that Delight in your word it's in you Jesus that we seek strength it's in you Lord that we can overcome sin you're a God who never disappoints the one who gives me peace of mind Direction and true leadership so King Jesus we

bow down to you we bow down to your Authority Psalm 23:3 says he restores my soul he leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake we have faith in you Lord because unlike the people on this Earth unlike the ways of this Earth You will never lead us astray you will never lead us to destruction it's only you King Jesus that can lead us through the valley of the shadow of death and still offer us peace it's you who can lead us through the darkest valleys and still offer us joy May the

fear of the Lord rest upon us as we pursue righteousness in this life the Bible says in Proverbs 9:10 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is Insight may you give us wisdom in our lives Lord give us a hunger to pursue righteousness our dear Lord and Master be praised and be glorified thank you for hearing our prayer it's in Jes Jesus name that we pray amen oh Lord my God when I am an awesome Wonder consider all the works thy hand hath made I see

the stars I hear the mighty Thunder thy power throughout the Universe displayed then sings my soul my savior God to thee How Great Thou Art I love this hymn because it simply Praises God and what else can you and I do but admire God's power and greatness all of creation is his the birds the trees the sound of the waves in the ocean when you and I take a moment and look at the beauty of creation how can you not praise God how can you not say Lord How Great Thou Art Psalms 150:6 says let

everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord people of god let's take a moment Let Us Praise Jesus Christ each one of us has a story we all have a testimony we all have a past we all have at least one thing that we can remember God has done for us we have one thing that we can recall and say that was you Lord Jesus so I encourage you to praise him I praise God because if I look back where I started and I see where I am now it can only be the

hand of God I pray praise God because I look at all the people who spoke down on me I look back at those who walked away from me and said hurtful words behind my back and I see God's goodness in all of that because as a result I became a stronger person I became stronger because I found out that I can only rely on the Lord I became strong because I realized that the hurtful words people said to me they were nothing in comparison to the empowering words that Jesus Christ says about me I am

fearfully and wonderfully made I am the head and not the tail I am blessed and highly favored those are the words that I found to be true in my life through God's word I have to praise the Lord because there was a season where I felt ill I thought I was invincible and healthy but out of nowhere here came this test here came this trial but my praise comes from knowing how bad things were for me in my health but thank you Jesus thank you Lord for healing me it wasn't an instant recovery but it

was a recovery nonetheless and it can only have been God I praise God because there was a season where I really lacked financially but somehow I survived I struggled but I never missed a meal and that was all because of God each of us has a story we all have something that we should be praising the Lord for so remember Psalms 150:6 let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord let us pray all praise belongs to you Lord Jesus all glory and honor Belongs to You King Jesus you You Are My Redeemer

My Savior my mouth is filled with your praise declaring your Splender all day long I praise you because Satan's attacks have no effect on me I Praise You Lord because with you on my side I will always be found to be standing Victorious when the Battle Is Over father the ability for me to live a victory notorious Christian life is not down to my gifts or talents it's down to your grace and mercy the ability for me to live with joy and faith is not a matter of my Willow or a positive mental attitude it's

because of my relationship with you Lord and for this reason I praise you forgive me if I've attached myself to things that are detrimental to my faith and growth as a Believer I pray that you would break those ties break the cords of anything that tries to choke my praise break and loose every chain from the enemy loose me from anything designed to hold my hands down so I do not lift them up in praise and surrender to you lord lord I I praise you I lift my hands as a sign of me relinquishing all

control to you I am abandoning my ways Lord and instead I am following your word your will and your ways because your will is better than mine I Praise You King Jesus because rather than relying on my own might I can rely on a God who has proven himself time and time again father so long as there is breath in my body so long as I am still standing and I have life in my veins I will praise you today and forever more so even when disaster strikes even when I feel tired and weary I

will praise you and glorify your name today and forever more John 4: 24 says God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and Truth teach me how to truly worship you in spirit and Truth King Jesus teach me to be a true worshipper Lord you are my God and and I will exalt you and praise your name for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things in my life I will always thank you Lord each and every day and with all my heart I will tell of all your wonderful Deeds I

will testify of all you've done for me I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made you you have made me in your image and you have called me loved you have forgiven me you have held me and kept me great are you Lord and most worthy to be praised your greatness is unlike anything we know or can fathom I will praise you at all times I will honor you with all my being your word says in Psalms 95 oh come let us sing to the Lord let us Make a Joyful Noise to the

rock of our Salvation let us come into His presence with Thanksgiving let us Make a Joyful Noise to him with songs of praise for the Lord is a great God and a great king Above All Gods how great you are King Jesus how Mighty and awesome aome you are Lord you are the king of glory the lord who is strong and mighty the Lord who is mighty in battle forever faithful and has NeverEnding Mercy for this reason I will praise you I will continue to praise you because that's all I can do to show my

gratitude and so I honor your holy name for you alone are worthy to be praised amen let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and truth but God being rich in Mercy because of the great love with which he loved us even when we were dead in our trespasses made us alive together with Christ by Grace you have been saved and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus because they do not

regard The Works of the Lord nor the operation of his hands he shall destroy them and not build them up blessed be the Lord because he has heard the voice of my supplications the Lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusted in him and I am helped therefore my heart greatly rejoices and with my song I will praise him the Lord is their strength and he is the saving Refuge of his anointed but he he said to me 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 weakness in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong there are times when you simply need to read and immerse yourself in the word of God and I'm talking about the times when a sermon won't do a word of encouragement won't do it but you simply need to hear from God himself through his word and so today I pray that as I read

these scriptures God's spirit would begin to move in your heart your mind and soul and stir up your faith I pray that these scriptures would find you wherever you may be in whatever situation you're in and they would remind you that the Lord still cares the Lord still loves you and his promises still stand true 2 Corinthians 1: 3- 4 praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in

any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God I want you to take away a few things from this passage our God is a God who has and shows compassion he is a God who has given us the wonderful Holy Spirit to comfort Us in all our trials and troubles so what you face may be painful yes it may be unpleasant but one thing remains true according to the word of God and that is the fact that we serve a compassionate and loving God one who comforts Us in all our troubles further scriptures worth

meditating are on Romans 1513 now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me I like how the psalmist here says even though even though I walk through the darkest Valley he might as well have said it doesn't matter where I walk even though it looks bad I will fear no evil

because you are with me even though it seems like there's no hope I will fear no evil because you are with me even though it appears to be over I will fear no evil because you are with me we need to be people who have this kind of faith people that have even though kind of Faith because when all is said and done Jesus Christ is with us and if God be with us who who can be against us furthermore Romans 8:28 says and we know that all things work together for good to those who

love God to those who are the called according to his purpose you see all of these scriptures there are many more in the Bible but all of these scriptures tell you in different ways that God cares for you God cares about you God is looking out for you God is working things out in your favor God will order your steps and I pray that the Lord would open the ears of someone who needs to hear this someone who perhaps has a heavy heart or a broken heart to that person I want to say look to

Jesus have faith in Jesus hold on to Jesus Christ of Nazareth and he will surely see you through now let us pray Lord God Almighty this world can be a dark place but we look to you Jesus to be the bright lamp that guides our feet I pray oh Lord that every past hurt every past mistake or past loss that weighs heavy on the heart of whoever is listening may be removed by your Everlasting power Philippians 4: 6 to8 do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present

your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things Our Hope For Tomorrow Is Anchored in you because you never fail our faith is in you because you are faithful even when we are faithless we choose to come to you we choose to set our minds on your word we make the choice

to trust you no matter the pain or the circumstance we even choose to pray today despite all that we face and in line with your word we choose not to be anxious not to worry we choose to believe that you're always with us and in control our healing Is Anchored In You Because by your stripes we are healed I pray for everyone listening right now and declare that broken hearts are mended today in the name of Jesus troubled minds are given peace peace I ask you Holy Spirit to be so close to us that we

can feel your presence in our hearts and in our homes we cast all our burdens to you Lord we lean on you where else can we run to but to you you have delivered and healed in the past and you will do it again in every season of Our Lives May you lead us God thank you that you reminded us throughout your word word we do not face the storms alone but you are always with us Whispering calm speaking peace bringing rest to our souls and God we believe you just as your word says in

the book of second Corinthians we may be afflicted in every way but we are not crushed we may be perplexed but we are not driven to despair we may be persecuted but we are not forsaken struck down but not destroyed I thank you for caring for us I thank you that the Peace of your loving and strong presence guards and protects the hearts and minds of each person listening father I thank you for listening to this prayer only the peace that comes from you will calm our hearts and sustain us through the Troubles of life

I pray that you will help us to not let our hearts be trouble because that's not your will for us be blessed now and forever more Lord Jesus amen praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God [Music] God now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by

the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they come comfort me do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever ever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything

is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things one of the most extraordinary things to happen in the Bible can be found in John 13 Verse 3 to8 and before I read this passage of scripture I want you to understand that when Jesus was here on this Earth he was born of a virgin and lived on this Earth but knew no sin he was fully human in the sense that he could only be in one place at one time he wept he felt physical tiredness however Jesus was fully the Son of God in the sense that

he could perform the impossible he could speak life into the cold body of Lazarus he could speak to Nature and it would obey now Hebrews 4: 15 says for we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations but one one who has been tempted knowing exactly how it feels to be human in every respect as we are yet without committing any sin our Lord knew pain he knew hunger he knew tiredness just like every other human but despite that he was still powerful enough to walk on

water Jesus while on this Earth fully man and fully God he was still powerful enough to speak to the wind and it obeyed he was too powerful for the grave to hold him and so it is with this understanding that I find John 13: 3 to8 to be extraordinary because the Bible says Jesus knowing that the father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God Rose from supper and laid aside his garments took a towel and girded himself after that he poured water into a

basin and began to wash the disciples feet and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded then he came to Simon Peter and Peter said to him Lord are you washing my feet Jesus answered and said to him what I am doing you do not understand now but you will know after this Peter said to him you shall never wash my feet Jesus answered him if I do not wash you you have no part with me now the reason that I find this passage of scripture so powerful and challenging at the same

time is because Jesus Christ the son of God is serving his disciples and washing their feet this is an act of incredible humility and it makes me think if Jesus Christ was humble enough to serve and wash the feet of his disciples what about me what can I say that I am doing for the Lord what can I say I'm doing to serve God now my brothers and sisters I want to encourage you to have a servant's heart a heart that seeks to serve the Lord too many of us are focused on what God can

do for us we're focused on what God can bless us with however how many of us seek to be servants in God's kingdom how many of us seek to give their time their energy and resources to serve the body of Christ I believe that a Christian who bears fruit in God's kingdom is one who serves and so I encourage you says stop living a life that is stagnant and lifeless serve God stop living a life that is only concerned with Self Serve God stop living a selfish life where you simply want this and want that

anday prayer request after prayer request is you asking for more things no this is not the way to live live for Jesus Christ and you do this by taking up your cross and crucifying the flesh meaning you stop asking God what can you do for me but you begin to ask God how can I serve you now let us pray dear Lord Give Me A Heart That seeks to serve you give me a heart that finds satisfaction in serving you may I not be the kind of person who is always concerned about my own selfish

needs and wants but would change my heart and make me to become someone who is concerned about the kingdom of God above all other things together with every person listening right now we declare that it is our desire to serve you King Jesus to believe in you we hold on to you we depend on you and we rely on you some trust in chariots and some in horses but we trust in the name of the Lord our god father there are those who are listening right now and they are seeking love and unity in their

homes may you flood their lives with more of you because you alone can bring love into the hearts of man thank you for dying on the cross for us we did nothing to deserve that kind of love we did nothing to earn that kind of love but you still gave your life for us and all we can do is thank you and open our hearts to you so that you can use us in your kingdom Holy Spirit help us to be consistent help us to be consistent with prayer help us to be consistent when it

comes to the reading of your word Holy Spirit help us to set our eyes always before the Lord so that if all is well with me my eyes remain on Jesus Christ and if I am struggling and can't seem to find a way out of the mess I'm in then my eyes are still on Jesus Lord I praise you because you you are a savior to those who need to be saved you are shelter to those who seek Refuge a protector to those who need safety I worship you lord your word in Isaiah 54:1 says

for the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed but my kindness shall not depart from you nor shall my Covenant of peace be removed says the Lord who has mercy on you we bless your name Master amen Psalm 90 and the reason I think that this is a great Psalm to meditate on is because it reveals just how big and Limitless and set apart God is our understanding as humans is too limited for us us to even understand a God who has unfailing love but also has righteous judgment and so this Psalm touches on

many different themes from the brevity of life and our need to live with wisdom and so Psalm 90 verse 1-1 17 the Bible reads Lord you have been our Dwelling Place in all generations before the mountains were brought forth wherever you had formed the earth and the world from Everlasting to Everlasting you are God you return man to dust and say return oh children of man for a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is passed or as a watch in the night you sweep them away with a flood they are

like a dream like grass that is renewed in the morning in the morning it flourishes and is renewed in the evening it fades and Withers for we are brought to an end by your anger by your wrath we are dismayed you may have set our iniquities before you our secret sins in the light of your presence for all our days pass away under your wrath we bring our years to an end like a sigh the years of our life are 70 or even by reason of strength 80 yet their span is but toil and trouble

they are soon gone and we fly away who considers the power of your anger and your wrath according to the fear of you so teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom return O Lord how long have pity on your servants satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love that we may rejoice and be glad all our days make us glad for as many days as you have afflicted us and for as many years as we have seen evil let your work be shown to your servants and your

glorious power to their children let the favor of the Lord Our God be upon us and establish the work of our hands upon us yes establish the work of our hands the Bible tells us that a thousand years to us is like a day to God this shows us that God operates on a different level to us his ways are higher than ours and it's with this understanding that I want to encourage you to go to God teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom when you appreciate time and

have the understanding that each of our days is numbered that is when you develop wisdom in your heart if you read Romans chapter 13 from verse 9 to 11 the Bible tells you not to leave any debt outstanding not to commit adultery not to steal not to covet but instead to love your neighbor as you love yourself and it sums all of this up in verse 11 as it says besides this you know the time that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep for salvation is nearer to us now than when we

first believed listen there should be an urgency about time in our lives as Believers we only have so much time to get our lives together the second lesson that life has taught me from personal experience and also from watching others is that not every storm not every crisis not every challenge or problem is bad for you what I mean is that some situations we encounter yes they'll be difficult they will be painful but in the long run that storm it will be for your good that crisis will work out for your good that challenge will

make you stronger you see someone will get sick but recover in such a way that they can only acknowledge the hand of God the miracle working power of the blood of Jesus someone's plans will get disrupted only to find that that disruption LED them to a better destination someone's plans will get delayed but that's perhaps God's way of saying not yet I have something better in store I have a better time in mind every crisis in life is not bad for you sometimes God uses adverse God places you in tough situations only for you to

grow for you to develop stronger faith for you to mature so the next time a problem presents itself the next time you face a crisis just stop for a moment and ask God what do you want me to learn from this what do you want to develop Within Me Now let us pray pray father your word in James 4:14 says whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow for what is your life it is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away this is a sobering reminder of how short

the life we live on this Earth really is and so Lord Jesus right now we run to you and we cling to you because salvation can only be found in you eternal life can only be found in you help us master so that we may live this life For Your Glory help us to live a life that is always seeking to obey your will and your commands God I desire to Be an Effective Christian one who has a burning passion to witness about the amazing love of Jesus Christ father give us hearts that are sensitive

to the voice of the Holy Spirit give us hearts that are sensitive to the voice of Jesus Christ so that whenever you speak we'll hear your voice and will know your voice help us to tune out every voice from this world and give us a spirit that is able to discern good from Evil and Lord is this world keeps drifting farther from you every day I pray that I would draw closer and closer to you every day as your children father give us the wisdom and ability to discern and recognize when Satan is trying to

deceive us and lead us away from you father help us so that we would not backslide in our faith or begin to compromise with sin help us to be Faithful Servants up until the day you return turn Lord make our hearts receptive to you help us to recognize your hand in every Earthly matter your word in Ezekiel 36: 26 and 27 say I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you I will take the Heart of Stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of Flesh 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 right now we receive your spirit we receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit within me and you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower us to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower us to walk with the eyes of Faith Empower us to walk in alignment with God's word help us holy spirit so that we can let go of every sin Every Idle every addiction

that weighs us down and instead we can walk our walk with Christ set my heart Ablaze for you and for your kingdom Lord don't allow me to be lukewarm stir my spirit up and awaken a hunger Within in me for you and you alone Lord I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer it's in the matchless name of Jesus Christ that I pray amen the Bible tells us a powerful story of healing in Luke 8: 43-44 which says and there was a woman who had a discharge of blood for

12 years and though she had spent all her living on Physicians she could not be healed by anyone she came up behind him and touched The Fringe of His Garment and immediately her discharge of blood ceased now I have a question if the woman with the issue of blood had suffered for so long would she have known that Jesus Is A Healer in Genesis 37: 23- 24 the Bible says so it came to pass when Joseph had come to his brothers that they stripped Joseph of his tunic the tunic of Many Colors that was on

him then they took him and cast him into a pit and the pit was empty there was no water in it later on in the Bible Genesis 42:7 says now Joseph was governor over the land and it was he who sold to all the people of the land and Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the Earth so if Joseph wasn't rejected by his brothers if he wasn't stripped and thrown into a pit if he wasn't sold as a slave would Joseph have ever known that God can take someone who

was rejected by his own family members and favor that person so much so that he could become one of the most powerful men in the land at that time if job had not lost everything if he hadn't lost his sons and daughters if he hadn't lost his oxen his donkeys his sheep and his wealth if he had not lost his health even then would job had ever known that God can restore double what the enemy stole if Daniel wasn't thrown into a lionen would he have ever known that God's protection is far better far superior

than anything else in the world Paul and Silas if they were never arrested and placed in Chains tell me how could they have known that God's power can set anyone free from any type of bondage and throughout the Bible there are people who have been through tough and painful situations but those tough and painful situations all offered an opportunity for God to demonstrate that he is the ultimate healer he is the most Superior form of protection he is the one who can restore and make a garden from a desert he is the only one who

can favor someone who's been rejected and lift them up so that they can die on a table in the presence of their enemies Saints believe in God there is a reason for this season you're in now let us pray King Jesus the almighty one teach us to be more trusting help us to build and strengthen our faith May the Holy Ghost teach us and remind us that the troubles we face the pain that we feel the people who reject us can all be a blessing in disguise the tough situations and trials we go through can

be the Lord setting us up positioning us for increase for healing for breakthrough Holy Spirit help us to see that the Lord sometimes uses our troubles to remind us that he is a deliverer he is a savior he is our hope and rescue he is the Chief Cornerstone and the solution to all of our problems father even though it may hurt when troubles come about give us the grace to keep an eternal perspective 2 Corinthians 4:17 says for our light Affliction which is but for a moment is working for us a far more exceeding and

eternal weight of Glory so help us to have an attitude that remains positive and hopeful in you you Lord Jesus as for the troubles we Face we pray Lord that no matter how difficult or how overbearing they may seem at the time they are in fact light because they are only for a short while and they pale in comparison to the joy that awaits Us in heaven you Lord are faithful to empower you are faithful to help us to stand strong and Victorious and not to be defeated and because Jesus is Victorious over Satan we

too can walk in Victory so we declare that through the grace of God we have the faith to stand against Satan's attacks and win we are not defeated by our troubles in jesus' name we are not oppressed by our afflictions in jesus' name as long as we hold on to you Lord Jesus we will live and enjoy a Victorious Life we will know you as a Healer we will know you as the one who can restore double With the Enemy lost we will know you as our shield and protector enlighten our Spirits father and help

us to see through the eyes of faith help us Lord so that the eyes of Faith may lead us to walk in your will father we believe that the battle has already been won because you have risen from the grace though this world we may have tribulation we will take heart we will be of a good cheer because you have overcome the world your word Lord says in 2 Chronicles 20:1 17 you will not have to fight this battle take up your positions stand firm and see the Deliverance the Lord will give you Judah in

Jerusalem do not be afraid do not be discouraged go out to face them tomorrow and the Lord will be with you we speak this word over our lives we do not need to fight our own battles because God will fight for us we will stand firm and stand in faith in the faith that I am assured of nothing less than Victory I will continue to stand in the faith that I am an overcomer through Christ who strengthens me thank you for the victory thank you for Everlasting peace thank you for an abundance of blessings and

above all thank you for showing me mercy in jesus' name I pray amen and amen the Bible says something interesting in 1st Samuel 26:23 it says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness the Lord delivered you into my hands today but I would not lay a hand on the Lord's anointed read that carefully the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and their faithfulness that's a powerful verse and it makes me think how do I stand before the Lord does he look at me and see a faithful heart does he look at me and

see a committed Christian when God looks down from heaven does he see me as a Believer who is striving to live in righteousness now the topic of righteousness is one that I find intriguing we're called to righteousness however we as people are far from righteous so what is it that we need to do if the Lord rewards every man for his right righteousness but yet we're born in sin how will we be rewarded well to begin with Saints I believe that when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior Galatians 2:20 can be said

of Our Lives because the Bible says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me a human being is Born Into sin this is clear because Psalm 51:5 explicitly States behold I was brought forth in iniquity and incend did my mother conceive me so I may be born in sin but when I repent and give my life to Jesus Christ I can then say

what Galatians 2:20 says my old self has been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me so Christ now lives in me therefore when it comes to us chasing righteousness it comes down to how much of ourselves have we yielded to Christ Christ do we love the Lord Our God with all our heart soul and mind or do we place him behind Earthly Pleasures material things sinful things

that we can't let go of Deuteronomy 6: 24-2 says and the Lord commanded us to observe all these statutes to fear the lord Our God for our good always that he might preserve Us Alive as it is this day then it will be righteousness for us if we are careful to observe all the Commandments before the Lord Our God as he has commanded us Saints it will be righteousness for us if we follow all his statutes his Commandments and to fear Him 1st Samuel 26:23 says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness now

let us pray dear Lord Jesus you alone Are Holy you alone are righteous father if we try to live a life that is pleasing to you through our own strength then we will fail we need your grace Lord we need your mercy but as the Bible says I have been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me as you live within me Lord you can displace all evil from within me remove everything that is ungodly remove everything that is corrupt remove everything that is unclean Lord purify and

cleanse us master your word in Romans 6 verses 17-8 but thanks be to God that though you used to be slaves to sin you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed Your Allegiance you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness help us to conform to your will father take the lead in our lives may your Commandments outweigh our own selfish Ambitions we desire to walk in a manner that's pleasing and acceptable in your sight we desire to be slaves to righteousness we desire

to walk in a manner that is pure a manner that's Christlike enable us to walk in the way of righteousness that leads to life not to death you are a God who takes pleasure in those who pursue righteousness may you find us to be such a people Lord go before us order our steps God so that I may not walk in unrighteousness your word in Psalm 1 veres 1-2 it says blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly nor stands in the path of Sinners nor sits in the seat of

the scornful but his Delight is in the law of the Lord and in his law he meditates day and night guide us King Jesus so that we would not be found walking in the counsel of those who are sinful and wicked give us hearts that Delight in your word it's in you Jesus that we seek strength it's in you Lord that we can overcome sin you're a God who never disappoints the one who gives me peace of mind Direction and true leadership so King Jesus we bow down to you we bow down to your Authority

so Psalm 23:3 says he restores my soul he leads me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake we have faith in you Lord because unlike the people on this Earth unlike the ways of this Earth You will never lead us astray you will never lead us to destruction it's only you King Jesus that can lead us through the valley of the shadow of death and still offer us peace it's you who can lead us through the darkest valleys and still offer us joy May the fear of the Lord rest upon us as we

pursue righteousness in this life the Bible says in Proverbs 9:10 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is Insight may you give us wisdom in our lives lives Lord give us a hunger to pursue righteousness our dear Lord and Master be praised and be glorified thank you for hearing our prayer it's in Jesus name that we pray amen oh Lord my God when I am an awesome Wonder consider all the works thy hand hath made I see the star I hear the mighty Thunder thy power

throughout the Universe displayed then sings my soul my savior God to thee How Great Thou Art I love this hymn because it simply Praises God and what else can you and I do but admire God's power and greatness all of creation is his the birds the trees the sound of the waves in the ocean when you and I take a moment and look at the beauty of creation how can you not praise God how can you not say Lord How Great Thou Art Psalms 150:6 says let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the

Lord people of god let's take a moment Let Us Praise Jesus Christ each one of us has a story we all have a testimony we all have a past we all have at least one thing that we can remember God has done for us we have one thing that we can recall and say that was you Lord Jesus so I am encourage you to praise him I praise God because if I look back where I started and I see where I am now it can only be the hand of God I praise God because I

look at all the people who spoke down on me I look back at those who walked away from me and said hurtful words behind my back and I see God's goodness and all of that because as a result I became a stronger person I became stronger because I found out that I can only rely on the Lord I became stronger because I realized that the hurtful words people said to me there were nothing in comparison to the empowering words that Jesus Christ says about me I am fearfully and wonderfully made I am the head and

not the tail I am blessed and highly favored those are the words that I found to be true in my life through God's word I have to praise the Lord because there was a season where I felt ill I thought I was invincible and healthy but out of nowhere here came this test here came this trial but my praise comes from from knowing how bad things were for me in my health but thank you Jesus thank you Lord for healing me it wasn't an instant recovery but it was a recovery nonetheless and it can only

have been God I praise God because there was a season where I really lacked financially but somehow I survived survived I struggled but I never missed a meal and that was all because of God each of us has a story we all have something that we should be praising the Lord for so remember Psalms 150:6 let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the Lord let us pray all praise belongs to you Lord Jesus all glory and honor Belongs to You King Jesus you are my redeemer My Savior my mouth is filled with your

praise declaring your Splendor all day long I praise you because Satan's attacks have no effect effect on me I Praise You Lord because with you on my side I will always be found to be standing Victorious when the Battle Is Over father the ability for me to live a Victorious Christian life is not down to my gifts or talents it's down to your grace and mercy the ability for me to live with joy and faith is not a matter of my willpower or a positive mental attitude it's because of my relationship with you Lord and

for this reason I praise you forgive me if I've attached myself to things that are detrimental to my faith and growth as a Believer I pray that you would break those times break the cords of anything that tries to choke my praise break and loose every chain from the enemy loose me from anything designed to hold my hands down so I do not lift them up in praise and surrender to you lord lord I praise you I lift my hands as a sign of me relinquishing all control to you I am abandoning my ways Lord

and instead I am following your word your will and your ways because your will is better than mine I Praise You King Jesus because rather than relying on my own might I can rely on a God who has proven himself time and time again father so long as there is breath in my body so long as I am still standing and I have life in my veins I will praise you today and forever more so even when disaster strikes even when I feel tired and weary I will praise you and glorify your name today and

forever more John 4: 24 says God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in Sp spirit and Truth teach me how to truly worship you in spirit and Truth King Jesus teach me to be a true worshipper Lord you are my God and I will exalt you and praise your name for in perfect faithfulness you have done wonderful things in my life I will always thank you Lord each and every day and with all my heart I will tell of all your wonderful Deeds I will testify of all you've done for me I

praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made you have made me in your image and you have called me loved you have forgiven me you have held me and kept me great are you Lord and most worthy to be praised your greatness is unlike anything we know or can fathom I will praise you at all times I will honor you with all my being your word says in Psalms 95 oh come let us sing to the Lord let us Make a Joyful Noise to the rock of our Salvation let us come into His presence

with Thanksgiving let let us Make a Joyful Noise to him with songs of praise for the Lord is a great God and a great king Above All Gods how great you are King Jesus how Mighty and awesome you are Lord you are the king of glory the lord who is strong and mighty the Lord who is mighty in battle forever faithful and has never ending Mercy for this reason I will praise you I will continue to praise you because that's all I can do to show my gratitude and so I honor your holy name for

you alone are worthy to be praised amen let everything that has breath praise the Lord praise the the Lord God is spirit and those who worship Him must Worship in spirit and truth but God being rich in Mercy because of the great love with which he loved us even when we were dead in our trespasses made us alive together with Christ by Grace you have been saved and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the Heavenly places in Christ Jesus because they do not regard The Works of the Lord nor the

operation of his hands he shall destroy them and not build them up blessed be the Lord because he has heard the voice of my supplications the Lord is my strength and my shield my heart trusted in him and I am helped therefore my heart greatly rejoices and with my song I will praise him the Lord is their strength and he is the saving Refuge of his anointed but he said to me 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 weakness in insults in hardships in persecutions in difficulties for when I am weak then I am strong there are times when you simply need to read and immerse yourself in the word of God and I'm talking about the times when a sermon won't do a word of encouragement won't do it but you simply need to hear from God himself through his word and so today I pray that as I read these scriptures God's spirit would begin to move in

your heart your mind and soul and stir up your faith I pray that these scriptures would find you wherever you may be in whatever situation you're in and they would remind you that the Lord still cares the Lord Lord still loves you and his promises still stand true 2 Corinthians 1 verses 3 to 4 praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves

receive from God I want you to take away a few things from this passage our God is a God who has and shows compassion he is a God who has given us the wonderful Holy Spirit to comfort Us in all our trials and troubles so what you face may be painful yes it may be unpleasant but one thing remains true according to the word of God and that is the fact that we serve a compassionate and loving God one who comforts Us in all our troubles further scriptures worth meditating are on Romans 1513 now may

the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4 even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort me I like how the psalmist here says even though even though I walk through the darkest Valley he might as well have said it doesn't matter where I walk even though it looks bad I will fear no evil because you are with me even though

it seems like there's no hope I will fear no evil because you are with me even though it appears to be over I will fear no evil because you are with me we need to be people who have this kind of Faith people that have even though kind of Faith because when all is said and done Jesus Christ is with us and if God be with us who who can be against us furthermore Romans 8:28 says and we know that all things work together for good to those who love God to those who are the

called according to his purpose you see all of these scriptures there are many more in the Bible but all of these scriptures tell you in different ways that God cares for you God cares about you God is looking out for you God is working things out in your favor God will order your steps and I pray that the Lord would open the ears of someone who needs to hear this someone who perhaps has a heavy heart or a broken heart to that person I want to say look to Jesus have faith in Jesus hold on

to Jesus Christ of Nazareth and he will surely see you through now let us pray Lord God Almighty this world can be a dark place but we look to you Jesus to be the bright lamp that guides our feet I pray oh Lord that every past hurt every past mistake or past loss that weighs heavy on the heart of whoever is listening may be removed by your Everlasting power power Philippians 4: 6 to8 do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your requests to God and the

peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things Our Hope For Tomorrow Is Anchored in you because you never fail our faith is in you because you are faithful even when we are faithless we choose to come to you we choose to set our minds on your word we make the choice to trust you no matter the

pain or the circumstance we even choose to pray today despite all that we face and in line with your word we choose not to be anxious not to worry we choose to believe that you're always with us and in control our healing heing Is Anchored In You Because by your stripes we are healed I pray for everyone listening right now and declare that broken hearts are mended today in the name of Jesus troubled minds are given peace I ask you Holy Spirit to be so close to us that we can feel your presence in our

hearts and in our homes we cast all our burdens to you Lord we lean on you where else can we run to but to you you have delivered and healed in the past and you will do it again in every season of Our Lives May you lead us God thank you that you reminded us throughout your word we do not face the storms alone but you are always with us Whispering calm speaking peace bringing rest to our souls and God we believe you just as your your word says in the book of 2 Corinthians we

may be afflicted in every way but we are not crushed we may be perplexed but we are not driven to despair we may be persecuted but we are not forsaken struck down but not destroyed I thank you for caring for us I thank you that the Peace of your loving and strong presence guards and protects the hearts and minds of each person listening father I thank you for listening to this prayer only the peace that comes from you will calm our hearts and sustain us through the Troubles of life I pray that you will help

us to not let our hearts be troubled because that's not your will for us be blessed now and forever more Lord Jesus amen praise be to the God and father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of All Comfort who comforts Us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the Comfort we ourselves receive from God now may the god of Hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing that you may abound in Hope by the power of the Holy Spirit Psalm 23:4

even though I walk through the darkest Valley I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff they comfort [Music] me do not be anxious about anything but in every situation by prayer and petition with Thanksgiving present your re quests to God and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus finally brothers and sisters whatever is true whatever is Noble whatever is right whatever is pure whatever is lovely whatever is admirable if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think about such things

one of the most extraordinary things to happen in the Bible can be found in John 13: 3-8 and before I read this passage of scripture I want you to understand that when Jesus was here on this Earth he was born of a virgin and lived on this Earth but knew no sin he was fully human in the sense that he could only be in one place at one time he wept he felt physical tiredness however Jesus was fully the Son of God in the sense that he could perform the impossible he could speak life into

the cold body of Lazarus he could speak to Nature and it would obey now Hebrews 4: 15 says for we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize and understand our weaknesses and temptations but one who has been tempted knowing exactly how it feels to be human in every respect as we are yet without committing any sin our Lord knew pain he knew hunger he knew tiredness just like every other human but despite that he was still powerful enough to walk on water Jesus while on this Earth fully man and fully God

he was still powerful enough to speak to the wind and it obeyed he was too powerful for the grave to hold him and so it is with this understanding that I find John chap 13: 3-8 to be extraordinary because the Bible says Jesus knowing that the father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God Rose from supper and laid aside his garments took a towel and girded himself after that he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples feet and to wipe

them with the towel with which he was girded then he came to Simon Peter and Peter said to him Lord are you washing my feet Jesus answered and said to him what I am doing you do not understand now but you will know after this Peter said to him you shall never wash my feet Jesus answered him if I do not wash you you have no part with me now the reason that I find this passage of scripture so powerful and challenging at the same time is because Jesus Christ the son of God is serving

his disciples and washing their feet this is an act of incredible humility and it makes me think if Jesus Christ was humble enough to serve and wash the feet of his disciples what about me what can I say that I am doing for the Lord what can I say I'm doing to serve God now my brothers and sisters I want to encourage you to have a servant's heart a heart that seeks to serve the Lord too many of us are focused on what God can do for us we're focused on what God can bless us

with however how many of us seek to be servants in God's kingdom how many of us seek to give their time their energy and resources to serve the body of Christ I believe that a Christian who bears fruit in God's kingdom is one who serves and so I encourage you says stop living a life that is stagnant and lifeless serve God stop living a life that is only concerned with Self Serve God stop living a selfish life where you simply want this and want that and prayer request after prayer request is you asking for more

things no this is not the way to live live for Jesus Christ and you do this by taking up your cross and crucifying the flesh meaning you stop asking God what can you do for me but you begin to ask God how can I serve you now let us pray dear Lord Give Me A Heart That seeks to serve you give me a heart that finds satisfaction in serving you may I not be the kind of person who is always concerned about my own selfish needs and wants but would change my heart and make me

to become someone who is concerned about the kingdom of God above all other things together with every person listening right now we declare that it is our desire to serve you King Jesus Jesus to believe in you we hold on to you we depend on you and we rely on you some trust in chariots and some in horses but we trust in the name of the Lord our god father there are those who are listening right now and they are seeking love and unity in their homes may you flood their lives with more of you

because you alone can bring love into the hearts of man thank you for dying on the cross for us we did nothing to deserve that kind of love we did nothing to earn that kind of love but you still gave your life for us and all we can do is thank you and open our hearts to you so that you can use us in your kingdom Holy Spirit help us to be consistent help us to be consistent with prayer help us to be consistent when it comes to the reading of your word Holy Spirit help

us to set our eyes always before the Lord so that if all is well with me my eyes remain on Jesus Jesus Christ and if I am struggling and can't seem to find a way out of the mess I'm in then my eyes are still on Jesus Lord I praise you because you are a savior to those who need to be saved you are shelter to those who seek Refuge a protector to those who need safety I worship you lord your your word in Isaiah 54:10 says for the mountains shall depart and the hills be

removed but my kindness shall not depart from you nor shall my Covenant of peace be removed says the Lord who has mercy on you we bless your name Master amen Psalm 90 and the reason I think that this is a great Psalm to meditate on is because it reveals just how big and Limitless and set apart God is our understanding as humans is too limited for us to even understand a God who has unfailing love but also has righteous judgment and so this Psalm touches on many different themes from the brevity of life and our

need to live with wisdom and so Psalm 90:1 to17 the Bible reads Lord you have been our Dwelling Place in all generations before the mountains were brought forth wherever you had formed the earth and the world from Everlasting to Everlasting you are God you return man to dust and say return oh children of man for a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is passed or as a watch in the night you sweep them away with a flood they are like a dream like grass that is renewed in the morning in

the morning it flourishes and is renewed in the evening it fades and Withers for we are brought to an end by your anger by your wrath we are dismayed you may have set our iniquities before you our secret sins in the light of your presence for all our days pass away under your wrath we bring our years to an end like a sigh the years of our life are 70 or even by reason of strength 80 yet their span is but toil and trouble they are soon gone and we fly away who considers the power

of your anger and your wrath according to the fear of you so teach us to number our days that we may get a heart of wisdom return O Lord how long have pity on your servants satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love that we may rejoice and be glad all our days make us glad for as many days as you have Afflicted us and for as many years as we have seen evil let your work be shown to your servants and your glorious power to their children let the favor of the Lord Our

God be upon us and establish the work of our hands upon us yes establish the work of our hands the Bible tells us that a thousand years to us is like a day to God this shows us that God operates on a different level to us his ways are higher than ours and it's with this understanding that I want to encourage you to go to God teach us to number our days that we may gain a heart of wisdom when you appreciate time and have the understanding that each of our days is numbered that is

when you develop wisdom in your heart if you read Romans chap 13 from verse 9 to 11 the Bible tells you not to leave any debt outstanding not to commit adultery not to steal not to covet but instead to love your neighbor as you love yourself and it sums all of this up in in verse 11 as it says besides this you know the time that the hour has come for you to wake from sleep for salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed listen there should be an urgency about time in

our lives as Believers we only have so much time to get our lives together the second lesson that life has taught me from personal experience and also from watching others is that not every storm not every crisis not every challenge or problem is bad for you what I mean is that some situations we encounter yes they'll be difficult they will be painful but in the long run that storm it will be for your good that crisis will work out for your good that challenge will will make you stronger you see someone will get sick but

recover in such a way that they can only acknowledge the hand of God the miracle working power of the blood of Jesus someone's plans will get disrupted only to find that that disruption LED them to a better destination someone's plans will get delayed but that's perhaps God's way of of saying not yet I have something better in store I have a better time in mind every crisis in life is not bad for you sometimes God uses adversity God places you in tough situations only for you to grow for you to develop stronger faith for you

to mature so the next time a problem presents itself the next time you face a crisis just stop for a moment and ask God what do you want me to learn from this what do you want to develop Within Me Now let us pray father your word in James 4:14 says whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow for what is your life it is even a paper that appears for a little time and then vanishes away this is a sobering reminder of how short the life we live on this Earth really is and

so Lord Jesus right now we run to you and we cling to you because salvation can only be found in you eternal life can only be found in you help us master so that we may live this life For Your Glory help us to live a life that is always seeking to obey your will and your commands God I desire to Be an Effective Christian one who has a burning passion to witness about the amazing love of Jesus Christ father give us hearts that are sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit give us hearts

that are sensitive to the voice of Jesus Christ so that whenever you speak will hear your voice and we'll know your voice help us to tune out every voice from this world and give us a spirit that is able to discern good from Evil and Lord as this world keeps drifting farther from you every day I pray that I would draw closer and closer to you every day as your children father give us the wisdom and ability to discern and recognize when Satan is trying to deceive us and lead us away from you father help

us so that we would not backslide in our faith or begin to compromise with sin help us to be Faithful Servants up until the day you return Lord make our hearts receptive to you help us to recognize your hand in every Earthly matter your word in Ezekiel 36: 26 and 27 say I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you I will take the Heart of Stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of Flesh 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 right now we receive your spirit we receive the Holy Spirit and according to your word you will put your spirit within me and you will cause me to walk in your statutes Holy Spirit Empower us to walk in Holiness Holy Spirit Empower us to walk with the eyes of Faith Empower us to walk in alignment with God's word help us holy spirit so that we can let go of every sin every Idol every addiction that weighs us down and instead we can walk our walk

with Christ set my heart Ablaze for you and for your kingdom Lord don't allow me to be lukewarm stir my spirit up and awaken a hunger within me for you and you alone Lord I bless your holy name and I thank you for listening to this prayer it's in the matchless name of Jesus Christ that I pray amen the Bible tells us a powerful story of healing in Luke 8: 43-44 which says and there was a woman who had a discharge of blood for 12 years and though she had spent all her living on Physicians

she could not be healed by anyone she came up behind him and touched The Fringe of His Garment and immediately her discharge of blood ceased now I have a question if the woman with the issue of blood hadn't suffered for so long would she have known that Jesus Is A Healer in Genesis 37: 23- 24 the Bible says so it came to pass when Joseph had come to his brothers that they stripped Joseph of his tunic the tunic of Many Colors that was on him then they took him and cast him into a pit and

the pit was empty there was no water in it later on in the Bible Genesis 42:7 says now Joseph was governor over the land and it was he who sold to all the people of the land and Joseph's brothers came and bowed down before him with their faces to the Earth so if Joseph wasn't rejected by his brothers if he wasn't stripped and thrown into a pit if he wasn't sold as a slave would Joseph have ever known that God can take someone who was rejected by his own family members and favor that person so

much so that he could become one of the most powerful men in the land at that time if job had not lost everything if he hadn't lost his sons and daughters if he hadn't lost his oxen his donkeys his sheep and his wealth if he had not lost his health even then would job had ever known that God can restore double what the enemy stole if Daniel wasn't thrown into a lion denen would he have ever known that God's protection is far better far superior than anything else in the world Paul and silus if they

were never arrested and placed in Chains tell me how could they have known that God's power can set anyone free from any type of bondage and throughout the Bible there are people who have been through tough and painful situations but those tough and painful situations all offered an opportunity for God to demonstrate that he is the ultimate healer he is the most Superior form of protection he is the one who can restore and make a garden from a desert he is the only one who can favor someone who's been rejected and lift them up so

that they can dine on a table in the presence of their enemies Saints believe in God there is a reason for this season you're in now let us pray King Jesus the almighty one teach us to be more trusting help us to build and strengthen our faith May the Holy Ghost teach us and remind us that the troubles we face the pain that we feel the people who reject us can all be a blessing in disguise the tough situations and trials we go through can be the Lord setting us up positioning us for increase for

healing for breakthrough Holy Spirit help us to see that the Lord sometimes uses our troubles to remind us that he is a deliverer he is a savior he is our hope and rescue he is the Chief Cornerstone and the solution to all of our problems father even though it may hurt when troubles come about give us the grace to keep an eternal perspective second Corinthians 4:17 says for our light affliction which is but for a moment is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of Glory so help us to have an attitude

that remains positive and hopeful in you Lord Jesus as for the troubles we Face we pray Lord that no matter how difficult or how overbearing they may seem at the time they are in fact light because they are only for a short while and they pale in comparison to the joy that awaits Us in heaven you Lord are faithful to empower you are faithful to help us to stand strong and Victorious and not to be defeated and because Jesus is Victorious over Satan we too can walk in Victory so we declare that through the grace

of God we have the faith to stand against Satan's attacks and win we are not defeated by our troubles in jesus' name we are not oppressed by our afflictions in jesus' name as long as we hold on to you Lord Jesus we will live and enjoy a Victorious Life we will know you as a Healer we will know you as the one who can restore double what the enemy lost we will know you as our shield and protector Enlighten our Spirits father and help us to see through the eyes of faith help us Lord so

that the eyes of Faith may lead us to walk in your will father we believe that the battle has already been won because you have risen from the grace though this world we may have tribulation we will take heart we will be of a good cheer because you have overcome the world your word Lord says in 2 Chronicles 20:1 17 you will not have to fight this battle take up your positions stand firm and see the Deliverance the Lord will give you Judah in Jerusalem do not be afraid do not be discouraged go out to

face them tomorrow and the Lord will be with you we speak this word over our lives we do not need to fight our own battles because God will fight for us we will stay stand firm and stand in faith in the faith that I am assured of nothing less than Victory I will continue to stand in the faith that I am an overcomer through Christ who strengthens me thank you for the victory thank you for Everlasting peace thank you for an abundance of blessings and above all thank you for showing me mercy in jesus' name

I pray amen and amen the Bible says something interesting in 1st Samuel 26:23 it says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness the Lord delivered you into my hands today but I would not lay a hand on the Lord's anointed read that carefully the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and their faithfulness that's a powerful verse and it makes me think how do I stand before the Lord does he look at me and see a faithful heart does he look at me and see a committed Christian when God looks down from heaven does

he see me as a Believer who is striving to live in righteousness now the topic of right rightousness is one that I find intriguing we're called to righteousness however we as people are far from righteous so what is it that we need to do if the Lord rewards every man for his righteousness but yet we're born in sin how will we be rewarded well to begin with Saints I believe that when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior Galatians 2:20 can be said of Our Lives because the Bible says my old self has

been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me a human being is Born Into sin this is clear because Psalm 51:5 explicitly States behold I was brought forth in iniquity and Inc sined my mother conceive me so I may be born in sin but when I repent and give my life to Jesus Christ I can then say what Galatians 2:20 says my old self has been crucified with

Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ lives in me so I live in this Earthly Body by trusting in the son of God who loved me and gave himself for me so Christ now lives in me therefore when it comes to us chasing righteousness it comes down to how much of ourselves have we yielded to Christ do we love the Lord Our God with all our heart soul and mind or do we place him behind Earthly Pleasures material things sinful things that we can't let go of Deuteronomy 6 verse veres 24- 2

says and the Lord commanded us to observe all these statutes to fear the lord Our God for our good always that he might preserve Us Alive as it is this day then it will be righteousness for us if we are careful to observe all the Commandments before the Lord Our God as he has commanded us Saints it will be righteousness for us if we follow all his statutes his Commandments and to fear Him 1st Samuel 26:23 says the Lord rewards everyone for their righteousness and faithfulness now let us pray dear Lord Jesus you alone Are

Holy you alone are righteous father if we try to live a life that is pleasing to you through our own strength then we will fail we need your grace Lord we need your mercy but as the Bible says I have been crucified with Christ it is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me as you live within me Lord you can displace all evil from within me remove everything that is ungodly remove everything that is corrupt remove everything that is unclean Lord purify and cleanse us master your word in Romans 6: 17-18

but thanks be to God that though you used to be slaves to sin you have come to obey from your heart the pattern of teaching that has now claimed Your Allegiance you have been set free from sin and have become slaves to righteousness help us to conform to your will father take the lead in our lives may your Commandments outweigh our own selfish Ambitions we desire to walk in a manner that's pleasing and acceptable in your sight we desire to be slaves to righteousness we desire to walk in a manner that is pure a manner

that's Christlike enable us to walk in the way of righteousness that leads to life not to death you are a God who takes pleasure in those who pursue righteousness may you find us to be such a people Lord go before us order our steps God so that I may not walk in unrighteousness your word in Psalm 1: 1 through2 it says blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly nor stands in the path of Sinners nor sits in the seat of the scornful but his Delight is in the law of

the Lord and in his law he meditates day and night guide us King Jesus so that we would not be found walking in the counsel of those who are sinful and wicked give us hearts that Delight in your word it's in you Jesus that we seek strength it's in you Lord that we can overcome from sin you're a God who never disappoints the one who gives me peace of mind Direction and true leadership so King Jesus we bow down to you we bow down to your Authority Psalm 23:3 says he restores my soul he leads

me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake we have faith in you Lord because unlike the people on this Earth unlike the ways of this Earth You will never lead us astray you will never lead us to destruction it's only you King Jesus that can lead us through the valley of the shadow of death and still offer us peace it's you who can lead us through the darkest valleys and still offer us joy May the fear of the Lord rest upon us as we pursue righteous n in this life the Bible says in

Proverbs 9:10 the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is Insight may you give us wisdom in our lives Lord give us a hunger to pursue righteousness our dear Lord and Master be praised and be glorified thank you for hearing our prayer it's in Jesus name that we pray amen
