July 27th 2023 – Living a Life of Honor, Reflect God’s Character

As followers of Christ, let us embrace the transformative power of honor in our lives. By honoring God, others, and ourselves, we reflect the character of our Heavenly Father to a world in need of His love and grace. May every word we speak, every action we take, and every thought we entertain be infused with the essence of honor. Let us be known as a people who uplift, inspire, and bring honor to our Lord, leaving a lasting legacy of love and integrity.

Proverbs 3:3-4 – “Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man

1. Honoring God: Honor begins with recognizing the greatness and majesty of our Heavenly Father. God is the source of all honor, worthy of our utmost reverence and respect. When we honor God, we acknowledge His sovereignty, obey His commands, and seek to live in alignment with His will. Our lives become a testimony to His glory, as we reflect His love, grace, and truth to the world around us.

2. Honoring Others: In a world marked by selfishness and disregard for one another, honoring others becomes a transformative act that sets us apart as followers of Christ. Jesus taught us to love our neighbors as ourselves, and honoring others is an expression of that love. When we honor others, we treat them with dignity, respect, and kindness. We value their worth, appreciate their uniqueness, and seek to build them up rather than tear them down.

3. Honoring Ourselves: While humility is essential in our Christian walk, it is equally important to recognize our intrinsic value as children of God. Honoring ourselves means embracing the truth that we are fearfully and wonderfully made, created in the image of our Heavenly Father. When we honor ourselves, we take care of our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being. We cultivate a healthy self-esteem, grounded in God’s love, and strive to live a life worthy of the calling we have received.

4. Honoring in Action: Honor is not merely a concept to ponder but a virtue to be lived out. It is through our actions that honor finds its fullest expression. We honor God by worshiping Him wholeheartedly, seeking His guidance in all aspects of life, and living according to His Word. We honor others by practicing forgiveness, speaking words of encouragement, and serving them with humility and compassion. We honor ourselves by setting healthy boundaries, pursuing personal growth, and using our talents and abilities for God’s glory.

Philippians 4:8 – “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.”

Remember, honor is not a one-time act but a lifelong pursuit. May the Holy Spirit guide and empower you to live a life that honors God, honors others, and honors yourself. May your life be a radiant reflection of the honor and glory that belong to our Heavenly Father

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, We come before You today with hearts filled with gratitude for Your abundant grace and love. We thank You for the gift of life and the opportunity to know You and follow Your ways. Lord, we desire to develop and live a life of honor, a life that reflects Your character and brings glory to Your name.

We ask for Your guidance and strength as we embark on this journey of honor. Teach us, Lord, to honor You above all else. Help us to recognize Your sovereignty, to trust in Your plans, and to obey Your commands. May our lives be a testament to Your greatness, as we seek to honor You in every aspect of our lives.

Lord, we also ask for Your help in honoring others. Fill our hearts with a genuine love and compassion for those around us. Grant us the grace to treat others with kindness, respect, and dignity, regardless of their background or circumstances. Help us to see the value in every person, just as You do. May we be known for our acts of love and service, always seeking to build others up and point them to You.

Father, we acknowledge that honoring ourselves is an important aspect of living a life of honor. Help us to see ourselves through Your eyes, as beloved children of God. Remove any feelings of self-doubt or unworthiness, and fill us with confidence in who You have created us to be. Guide us in taking care of our physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, so that we may live lives of purpose and fulfillment.

Lord, we know that living a life of honor is not always easy. There will be challenges and temptations along the way. But we trust in Your strength and guidance to remain steadfast in our pursuit of honor. Help us to rely on Your Word, to seek Your wisdom, and to lean on Your Spirit for discernment and strength in every situation.

Father, we surrender ourselves to You and ask that You shape us into honorable vessels for Your glory. May our lives be a testimony to the transformative power of Your love and grace. Use us, Lord, to shine Your light in a world that so desperately needs it. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

July 24th 2023 – Navigating Crossroads

Psalm 25:4 – “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.”

In our journey of faith, we often find ourselves at crossroads, unsure of which path to take or what decisions to make. It is during these times that we can turn to the Lord, just as the psalmist did, and cry out, “Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.”

The psalmist’s plea is a humble admission that we, as human beings, can easily become lost and confused without the guidance of our Heavenly Father. We acknowledge that God’s ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts than our thoughts (Isaiah 55:9). Therefore, the first step towards finding direction in our lives is to surrender ourselves to Him and seek His wisdom.

Our God is not a distant deity who is uninterested in our affairs. On the contrary, He desires to be intimately involved in every aspect of our lives. He longs for us to seek His guidance and rely on His wisdom. When we come before Him with an open heart, ready to receive His instruction, He will not disappoint us.

As we meditate on this verse, let us consider the ways in which God can guide us. Firstly, He can show us His ways through His Word, the Bible. The Scriptures contain timeless truths that provide us with principles for living a godly life. By studying and meditating on His Word, we gain insight into His character and His desires for us.

Secondly, God guides us through His Holy Spirit. When we invite the Holy Spirit into our lives, He becomes our counselor, teacher, and guide. He speaks to our hearts, giving us nudges, promptings, and convictions that lead us on the right path. Our part is to cultivate a sensitive spirit and listen attentively to His gentle whispers.

Lastly, God guides us through the wise counsel of fellow believers. He places people in our lives who can offer godly advice and perspectives. Seeking wisdom from trusted mentors, pastors, or friends who are grounded in the Word can provide clarity and direction when we are facing difficult decisions.

As we pray the psalmist’s prayer, let us approach God with humility, recognizing our need for His guidance. Let us open our hearts and minds to His teachings, eagerly desiring to follow His ways and walk on His paths. May we surrender our own plans and trust in His perfect plan for our lives.

Let us commit to seeking God’s guidance in every area of our lives. Let us lean on His Word, the Holy Spirit, and the wisdom of fellow believers. As we do so, we can have confidence that He will lead us on the right path, even when it may be difficult or unclear. Trust in His faithfulness, knowing that His ways are always good and perfect

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come before You today seeking Your guidance and wisdom. Show me Your ways, Lord, and teach me Your paths. I recognize that without You, I am lost and confused. Help me to trust in Your leading and surrender my own desires to follow Your perfect plan. Speak to me through Your Word, Your Holy Spirit, and the wise counsel of fellow believers. Guide my steps, Jesus, and may I walk in Your truth. I pray in Your precious name, Amen.

July 15th 2023 – God’s Perfect Plan

Have you ever experienced moments in life that felt so perfectly orchestrated, so divinely timed, that you couldn’t help but recognize it as a divine appointment? These encounters are not mere coincidences but rather glimpses of God’s guiding hand in our lives. Today, let us reflect on the beauty and significance of these divine appointments.

Proverbs 16:9 – “In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps.”

In our journey of faith, it’s easy to become consumed with our own plans and ambitions. We meticulously map out our lives, striving for control and certainty. However, God’s ways are higher than ours, and He often has a greater purpose in mind. Proverbs 16:9 reminds us that while we may plan our course, it is the Lord who establishes our steps.

Divine appointments are those extraordinary moments when God graciously interrupts our plans, leading us to encounters that transform our lives and the lives of others. They may manifest as unexpected conversations, chance meetings, or divine interventions in seemingly insignificant circumstances. These appointments are not random; they are carefully orchestrated by our loving Heavenly Father who knows the desires of our hearts and the paths we need to walk.

When we encounter a divine appointment, it is vital to have eyes of faith that recognize God’s hand at work. These moments carry profound meaning and provide us with an opportunity to grow in our relationship with Him. They remind us that God is intimately involved in every aspect of our lives, guiding us towards His perfect plan.

Moreover, divine appointments also call us to be vessels of God’s love and grace. As we remain open and sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit, we can become instruments of blessing in the lives of others. Just as Philip was obedient to the divine appointment with the Ethiopian eunuch, we too can be used by God to share His truth, offer comfort, and extend a helping hand.

Let us approach each day with a sense of expectancy, knowing that God may have a divine appointment in store for us. As we surrender our plans and trust in His providence, we allow Him to lead us on extraordinary paths that align with His purpose.

May we be diligent in recognizing and embracing these divine appointments, for they are precious gifts from our Heavenly Father. Let us commit ourselves to prayer, asking God to grant us discernment and wisdom to recognize and respond to His divine interventions.

Prayer

Heavenly Father,

We come before You with hearts full of gratitude and awe for the divine appointments You have orchestrated in our lives. We acknowledge that Your ways are higher than ours, and You have a perfect plan for each of us. Thank You for the times when You have interrupted our plans and led us to encounters that have changed our lives.

Lord, we pray for open hearts and minds to recognize these divine appointments when they come. Help us to discern Your leading and guidance in every situation. Give us the wisdom to understand that these appointments are not mere coincidences but divine interventions orchestrated by Your loving hand.

Lord, we surrender our plans and ambitions to You. We confess that we often fall into the trap of seeking control and certainty. Help us to trust Your providence and have faith that You are working all things together for our good.

As You lead us into divine appointments, Lord, equip us to be vessels of Your love and grace. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit, that we may speak words of encouragement and truth to those we encounter. Give us the discernment to listen attentively and respond with compassion and empathy.

May our lives reflect Your love and light in the midst of these divine encounters. Help us to be sensitive to the needs of others, offering a helping hand and a listening ear. Use us, Father, to be instruments of Your peace, comfort, and hope.

Lord, we humbly ask that You continue to guide our steps and establish our paths. We trust in Your divine timing and Your perfect plan for our lives. As we walk in faith, grant us the courage to embrace the unexpected appointments You have in store for us. We pray all this in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

July 13th 2023 ‐ Fishers of Men

Let’s explore the profound metaphor of “Fishers of Men” This analogy speaks to our calling as believers to share the love and message of God with others, just as fishermen cast their nets to catch fish. Let us delve into this concept and discover its significance for our lives.

Imagine, if you will, the serene scene by the shores of the sea. Picture a group of fishermen, going about their daily work, casting their nets into the waters. Jesus, in His wisdom, used this everyday scene to teach His followers about their purpose and mission in life.

1. A Divine Call – Jesus called His disciples to become “fishers of men,” inviting them to leave behind their former lives and follow Him. This call extends to us today. We are chosen and called by God to be His representatives in the world, to share His love, and to bring others into a vibrant relationship with Him.

Matthew 4:19 – “‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.'”

2. Casting Our Nets – Just as fishermen cast their nets into the sea, we are called to cast our nets of love, compassion, and the message of salvation into the world around us. This involves stepping out of our comfort zones, reaching out to those who are hurting, lost, or in need of the hope that only Christ can provide. Let us be intentional in our actions, seeking opportunities to share God’s love with those we encounter.

Mark 1:16-18 “As Jesus walked beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left their nets and followed him.”

3. Trusting in God’s Providence – Fishing requires faith and trust in the provision of God. Fishermen cast their nets and wait, knowing that their catch is ultimately in God’s hands. Similarly, as we engage in sharing the Gospel, we must trust in God’s timing and His ability to work in the lives of those we reach. We plant the seeds, but it is God who brings the increase. Let us have faith that He will bring forth a bountiful harvest.

Luke 5:10-11 – “Then Jesus said to Simon, ‘Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.’ So, they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.”

4. Nurturing and Discipling – Once the fish are caught, fishermen take care of their catch, ensuring their well-being and growth. Similarly, we are called to nurture and disciple those who respond to the message of Christ. We walk alongside them, guiding, teaching, and supporting them on their journey of faith. Let us be a source of encouragement, offering guidance and sharing the wisdom and truth found in God’s Word.

Matthew 28:19-20 – “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

The significance of being fishers of men.

May we embrace our divine call, casting our nets of love and truth into the world around us. Let us trust in God’s provision and timing, knowing that He is at work in the lives of those we encounter. And may we faithfully nurture and disciple those who respond, guiding them towards a deeper relationship with Christ. Remember, our role as fishers of men is not limited to a select few; it is an invitation for all believers to participate in the redemptive work of God. May we embrace this calling wholeheartedly and be ambassadors of His love and grace in the world.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, We come before you today with humble hearts, seeking your guidance and strength to be fishers of men, just as Jesus called his disciples to be. We acknowledge that it is through your power and grace that we can fulfill this calling. We ask for your wisdom and discernment as we interact with others, that we may have the right words to share the good news of your love and salvation. Help us to see people as you see them, with compassion and a desire for their spiritual well-being.

Grant us the courage to step out of our comfort zones, to reach out to those who are lost and searching for meaning in their lives. Give us opportunities to build relationships and establish connections with those who are in need of your saving grace. We also ask for your patience and perseverance as we walk alongside those we are discipling. Help us to be good listeners, ready to offer guidance and support. Give us the words to speak truth and love into their lives, pointing them towards you and helping them grow in their faith.

May your Holy Spirit empower us to be effective witnesses of your truth, shining your light in the darkness. Give us boldness to share our testimonies and the hope that we have in Jesus Christ.

Father, we surrender our own desires and agendas, and ask that you align our hearts with yours. Help us to be obedient to your leading, following your example of love and service. We ask all these things in Jesus precious name, Amen.

Invitation:

Have you ever eacknowledged Jesus as you Lord and Savior?

If you do not know Him personally. I encourage you not to pass up the precious gift of His love and eternal life. We truly are living in the end days, a d the only road to Heavwn is through Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross for you and me. Jesus loves us and wants to help us through the storms.

July 11th 2023 – Trusting God When Feeling Let Down

Life has a way of bringing disappointments and letdowns that can leave us feeling downcast and discouraged. We may have experienced unmet expectations, broken promises, or dreams that seemed to crumble before our eyes. In these moments, it’s easy to question God’s plan and wonder why things didn’t turn out as we hoped. However, it is precisely in these times of disappointment that our faith can grow deeper, and our trust in God can be strengthened.

Psalm 42:11 – “Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.”

The psalmist in Psalm 42 cries out, “Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me?” These questions resonate with our own struggles when we feel let down. But the psalmist doesn’t stop there; they offer a powerful solution: “Put your hope in God.” 

When we feel let down, it’s crucial to redirect our focus and place our trust in God. We can find comfort and solace in knowing that God is always with us, even in our disappointments. He sees our pain and understands our heartache. He longs to bring healing and restoration to our weary souls.

Remember, Jesus Himself experienced deep disappointment. He was let down by His closest friends who deserted Him in His hour of need. Yet, even in His darkest moments, He put His trust in God. He surrendered to the Father’s will, knowing that His plan was greater than any disappointment or betrayal He faced.

In seasons of letdown, let us follow Jesus’ example by praising God in the midst of our pain. Let us acknowledge that He is our Savior and our God, who never leaves us nor forsakes us. As we cultivate an attitude of praise, our perspective shifts, and we begin to see God’s faithfulness and goodness even in the midst of disappointment.

While disappointment may linger, we can find hope in knowing that God’s plans are higher than our own. He can take our shattered dreams and transform them into something beautiful. His timing is perfect, and He works all things together for our good.

So, in times of letdown, let us choose to trust God. Let us put our hope in Him, knowing that He is faithful and will guide us through every disappointment. May we find strength in our relationship with Him, knowing that He has a purpose and a plan for our lives, even when things don’t turn out as we expected.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I come to You today with a heavy heart, feeling let down and disappointed. Help me to trust in Your plan and to put my hope in You. Remind me of Your faithfulness and goodness, even in the midst of my disappointments. Give me the strength to praise You in all circumstances and to surrender my disappointments into Your capable hands. Guide me and lead me according to Your perfect will. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

Take a moment to reflect on God’s faithfulness and His promise to work all things together for your good. Trust that He is with you in every disappointment and that He will bring beauty out of ashes. Keep your hope in Him, for He is your Savior and your God.

July 8th 2023 – Trusting in God’s Guidance

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

In our journey of faith, there are times when we may feel unsure or overwhelmed by the decisions we need to make. We may find ourselves at a crossroads, uncertain of which path to take. In these moments, it is crucial to trust in God’s guidance.

The book of Proverbs reminds us to trust in the Lord with all our hearts and to not rely solely on our own understanding. As human beings, we often try to figure things out on our own, relying on our own logic and reasoning. However, God’s ways are higher than ours, and His wisdom surpasses our own understanding.

Trusting in God’s guidance requires humility and surrender. It means acknowledging that we don’t have all the answers, but God does. It means submitting our plans, desires, and decisions to Him, allowing Him to direct our steps. When we surrender to God, He promises to make our paths straight.

Take a moment today to reflect on the areas of your life where you may be struggling with decisions or feeling uncertain. Surrender those concerns to God and ask Him for His guidance. Trust that He will lead you in the right direction, even if it may not align with your initial plans. Remember that God’s plans are always greater and more beautiful than we can imagine

Heavenly Father, I come before You today with a humble heart, acknowledging that I need Your guidance in my life. Help me to trust You with all my heart, and to lean not on my own understanding. I submit my plans, decisions, and desires to You. Guide me, Lord, and make my paths straight. Thank You for Your unfailing love and wisdom. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

Prayer:

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

July 7th 2023 – New Beginnings Through God’s Grace

As we embark on a new day, we are often filled with a sense of anticipation and hope. New beginnings allow us to leave behind the past, wipe the slate clean, and embrace the possibilities that lie ahead. In our Christian journey, we are blessed with the promise of new beginnings through the transformative power of God’s grace.

In 2 Corinthians 5:17, The Apostle Paul reminds us that when we come to Christ, we become new creations. Our past mistakes, regrets, and shortcomings no longer define us. Instead, we are given a fresh start, a chance to begin again. This newness is not something we can create on our own, but rather a gift from God Himself.

Just as the dawn breaks after a long night, God’s grace brings light and hope into the darkest corners of our lives. It is through His grace that we find forgiveness, redemption, and the strength to move forward. No matter how broken or lost we may feel, God’s love provides a way for us to experience a new beginning.

In embracing this new beginning, we are called to surrender our old ways and patterns of living. It requires humility and a willingness to let go of our own desires and ambitions, instead aligning our hearts with God’s will. As we embark on this fresh chapter, let us seek His guidance and direction, seeking to honor Him in all that we do.

Remember, that new beginnings are not just a one-time event but a continuous process. Each day, we have the opportunity to turn to God, seek His forgiveness, and experience His transforming power. Let us approach each new day with gratitude and a readiness to embrace the newness that God’s grace provides.

As we walk this journey of faith, let us encourage one another, reminding ourselves and our fellow believers of the promise of new beginnings in Christ. May we extend the same grace and love that we have received to those around us, helping them discover the hope and joy that comes from starting anew.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, we thank You for the gift of new beginnings through Your grace. Help us to fully embrace this fresh start, leaving behind our past mistakes and embracing the possibilities that lie ahead. Guide us in aligning our hearts with Your will, allowing Your transforming power to work in us each day. May we be a light to others, extending Your love and grace to those in need. In Jesus’ name, we pray. In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

July 4th 2023 – Celebrating Independence

On this glorious day, as we commemorate the independence of our beloved nation, let us take a moment to reflect on the significance of freedom through a Christian lens.

As Americans, we cherish the principles of liberty and justice for all. But as followers of Christ, we understand that true freedom extends beyond earthly boundaries. It is an inner liberation of the soul, granted by our Savior, Jesus Christ.

In (Galatians 5:1), the apostle Paul reminds us, “It is for freedom that Christ has set us free.” Through his sacrifice on the cross, Jesus broke the chains of sin and granted us eternal salvation. His love and grace have given us the ultimate freedom, freeing us from the bondage of guilt and shame.

Let us not take this spiritual freedom for granted. As we celebrate our nation’s independence, let us also remember to give thanks to God for the spiritual freedom we still enjoy.

Today, let our hearts be filled with gratitude for the countless blessings we receive as Americans and as believers. Let us remember to pray for our country’s real leaders, that they may govern with wisdom and seek justice for all people not just a political party. 

As fireworks light up the sky, may they remind us of the light of Christ that shines within us. Let us share this light with others, spreading love, compassion, and unity in our communities.

Have a blessed and joyous 4th of July, celebrating the freedom we have in Christ and the freedom we enjoy as Americans!

Prayer:

Heavenly Father,

On this special day, we come before you with hearts full of gratitude and thanksgiving. We thank you for the blessings you have bestowed upon our nation and for the freedom we enjoy as Americans.

Lord, we recognize that our freedom was not achieved without sacrifice. We remember and honor the brave men and women who fought for the independence of our country. We ask that you bless them and their families, and may their sacrifice never be forgotten.

We also thank you for the freedom we have in Christ. Jesus, you laid down your life for our sins, and through your resurrection, you granted us eternal freedom. We are grateful for the forgiveness and redemption we find in you. May we always cherish and embrace this spiritual liberty.

As we gather with family and friends to celebrate, we ask for your presence to be with us. Fill our hearts with joy and unity, as we remember the values this great nation was founded upon. Help us to live out these values, promoting justice, equality, and love for one another.

Lord, we pray for our leaders, both in government and in the church. Grant them wisdom and discernment as they make decisions that impact our nation and our communities. May they always seek your guidance and strive for the well-being of all people.

In the midst of the celebrations, may we never forget those who are less fortunate, the marginalized, and the oppressed. Help us to be vessels of your love and compassion, reaching out to those in need and working towards a world where everyone can experience true freedom.

Finally, Lord, we lift up our nation to you. Bless America, protect it from harm, and guide it towards unity and peace. Help us to once again be a beacon of hope, prosperity and righteousness in a broken world.

We offer this prayer in the name of Jesus, who sets us free and grants us true independence.

Amen.

If you have never experienced the love of God through a relationship with Jesus then come to Him today. He will never turn you away.

June 1st 2023 – Spirit of Truth

Scripture Reading:

“When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all truth. He will not speak on his own but will tell you what he has heard. He will tell you about the future.” (John 16:13)

Reflection:

In a world filled with uncertainty and conflicting messages, the promise of the Holy Spirit as our guide is both comforting and empowering. Jesus assures us that the Spirit of truth will not only lead us into all truth but will also communicate what He has heard from the Father. This divine guidance is available to us, offering clarity amidst confusion and direction amid chaos.

Consider the essence of truth. It is not merely a collection of facts but the very foundation of our relationship with God. The Spirit reveals truths about His nature, His love for us, and His plans for our lives. In prayer and Scripture, we can seek the Spirit’s guidance. He illuminates our understanding and helps us discern between worldly distractions and God’s wisdom.

Take a moment to sit quietly and invite the Holy Spirit to speak into your life. Reflect on areas where you seek guidance and truth. Trust that He is with you, leading you toward God’s perfect plan.

Action Step:
This week, commit to setting aside time for prayer and Scripture reading. Ask the Holy Spirit to reveal truths you may have overlooked and to guide your decisions. Keep a journal of insights and revelations you receive, and share them with someone who may benefit from your journey.

“Embrace the Spirit of truth as your guiding light; in His whispers, you’ll find clarity, purpose, and the assurance that you’re never alone on your journey.”

Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of the Holy Spirit, our guide and teacher. Help us to be attentive to His voice as He leads us into all truth. May we seek Your wisdom in our daily lives, trusting that the Spirit will reveal Your plans and purposes for us. Strengthen our faith as we navigate the complexities of life, and grant us peace in knowing that we are not alone. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

May 4th 2020 – Look To Jesus

“The Son radiates God’s own glory and expresses the very character of God, and he sustains everything by the mighty power of his command. When he had cleansed us from our sins, he sat down in the place of honor at the right hand of the majestic God in heaven.” (Hebrews 1:3)

There is just something about the name of Jesus!  His Name is the most beautiful of all names.  This verse shows us that Jesus radiates God’s very glory, and He expresses the very character of the Father.  Jesus said that he who has seen Him has seen the Father.  He and His Father are one.

The reason this is so important is that many times we do not fully understand God, because we have never seen Him.  But when we look into the Gospels and we read about Jesus, He shows us who God the Father is.  You see, Jesus was a healer, and a provider.  He let John lay His head on His chest.  Jesus is the One that calmed the storms and raised the dead.  He is the One who promised those that believe in Him that we will have eternal life.

When we understand that to look at Jesus is to see the Father, we know that the Father will heal us, and the Father will calm the storms in our lives.  He will provide for our needs, and He wants us to lay our heads near His heart and rest in Him.  You see, the Father loves us just like Jesus does.  The Father and Jesus are one, and the great love that Jesus showed by going to the cross to die for you and me is the same love that the Father in heaven has for us.

That is why Jesus said not to pray to Him, but to pray to our Father in heaven in His Name, and He will answer us.  So today, get to know the Father.  He loves you and cares for you.  To know Him is to know life.  So enjoy His presence in your life each and every day!

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I praise You in all circumstances Lord, Thank You for your overwhelming love that You have for me. I want to know my Father better and see all that my Father is, and the place that He wants to take in my life. Please help me share who You are to everyone. I pray this in Jesus’ glorious name, Amen.
