Be Strengthened

The Word of God tells us that God’s grace is sufficient and the Lord’s strength is made perfect in our weakness. With that power booster in your mind you can brush negativity off and rise above difficult and imposing situations. Resolve to have a good, productive, stress-free, blessed day, today. Recognize that when you are at your weakest Jesus Christ will manifest in you at His strongest.
Know who you are in the sight of the Lord. Fashion your reactions with the Bible verse, “Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with somber judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you” (Romans 12:3). Repeat that verse as many times as you feel like you need it to balance your reactions to your day. Remain humbled in God's sight. The Lord will honor you.
Meditate on God’s word. “I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13). If you can do all things through Christ which strengthens you then no matter what the expectations are, you would be able to meet it. You will tackle difficulties and overcome because of the strength that the Lord will equip you with. Have a positive disposition. That will enable you to have a beautiful, successful end result.

Finally it is Now...

Now is the time to honor Christ with your life. Now is when you reaffirm your walk with the Lord. Make a vow to follow Jesus. Now is when you make Prayer your "must do" activity. Prayer is talking to God. Make Prayer THE JOB you were born to do. You will never get fired from duty as long as you are performing. There is no one way or wrong way to do that job. Any method you use to perform your duty is correct. Just talk to the Lord. Listen for His voice. In a loud and noisy world, the voice of Jesus is calm, pure, gentle, firm, and loving. It emanates grace.
When you talk to God in prayer, begin listening for His voice and hearing what He says to you in His Word, and through the Holy Spirit. Prayer is the simplest job on earth. Anybody can do it! Apply today. Immediately, you would be hired. Then start working. And stay on the job. PRAY. Right now is the right time to begin a new prayer life. Your strength to strive comes from the time you spend in prayer. Want to check your success rate? Measure your prayer life. If you want your life to matter, pray. Prayer makes sense of life and life makes sense with prayer.
Now is the time to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all things will be added. Now is when you live for Christ. The time to surrender your life to Jesus and champion the cause of Christ is now. The right time, the right place, is right now. Right where you are.
The Word of God (Holy Bible) says, “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service” (Romans 12:1 KJV).
Now, my friend. NOW is the time to follow Jesus, and stay with the Lord.

Sunday Brunch (there are ways)

God is there to meet you at your point of need today and always. No matter what dilemma you may face, be optimistic for the future. You are not without possibilities. Father God is an accomplished creator. Do not live in hopelessness. God can create means and methods you could never imagine. His ways are higher than ours. And His thoughts are bigger, higher, and different than ours. Worship the only Living God. 
Beyond your physical strength the Lord imbues supernatural strength in you to face whatever life brings at you. Whatever hardships you may face, know that God is right there beside you. The Lord has promised never to leave you; definitely, never will Jesus forsake you. Life in Christ cushions you with the knowledge that there is a greater power at work in you. Allow that power to work for you. That Power is Jesus Christ. Jesus will carry you. The Lord will envelop and protect and deliver you. You must trust Him and believe that God can.

The Scripture Say... (year of cleansing)

“Besides, who would patch old clothing with new cloth? For the new patch would shrink and rip away from the old cloth, leaving an even bigger tear than before. And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. For the old skins would burst from the pressure, spilling the wine and ruining the skins. New wine is stored in new wineskins so that both are preserved” (Matthew 9:16-17 NLT).

Let's Go to The Lord in Prayer

Heavenly Father hallowed be Your Name. We come to praise You for another day. We glorify Your holy name. We worship You for You alone are almighty! Lord Jesus we thank You that we are able to freely talk about You. We thank You for the opportunity to spend time reading and knowing Your word. Father we commit this day to You. Be glorified in our lives. Be magnified in all that we seek to do. Dear Jesus, please forgive our sins and make us whole again. Bless this land and heal this nation. Keep this country safe by night and day. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray. Amen.

Does Someone Need to Hear This?...

My friend...You know you are growing spiritually when you are immediately able to turn any disappointment into new opportunity. You take a leap of faith and what do you know…chance happens. You and Jesus are always a majority. When a good chance happens to you, Take it! You never know which route Jesus is using to get blessings to you, on any given day.
You do not have enough time left to fool with Lucifer. The timeline is getting shorter. There is a shifting in the Heavens. The King is putting on “Coming Down” gear! Stop fooling with foolishness. Quit using your precious time to negotiate with nonsense. Remember it was the unnecessary noise that kept Moses from the Promised Land. Moses got so distracted by the people complaining VOICES that he hit the rock, temporarily forgetting that God had told him to SPEAK to the rock. Keep your mind and life uncluttered so you can hear the voice of God. The Lord is your friend. He likes to keep you company.
Bounce up and turn that missed opportunity into another chance. Seize the moment and make something else happen. Last time I checked, your father God was still the creator of heaven and earth. Go seize the day!

Release It and Let it Go

Every year, Do It For Christ Ministry makes a designation of that year. This year, the Holy Spirit has inspired me to classify 2014 as the year of cleansing! 2014 is the year of cleansing. 

The way that you would expand yourself so that you can have space to absorb all the possibilities and opportunities, those blessings that are definitely coming for you this year, begins now with a cleansing of your mind, body and spirit. Hold on to memories from the past that increase you. Let all the other ones go! 
Release the bad memories, release all the unpleasant memories. LET IT GO. 
Place your hands in God’s hands as you begin the new year. Know that Jesus Christ is Lord! The Lord is an acknowledged winner. God is an accomplished creator. He can invent new things into you. God can make you new again. Let the Lord guide you to the place you need to be. 

2014 - The YEAR OF CLEANSING

Morning Solution (Travel Help)

I come to offer you a solution this morning. That will ensure that the good things that are supposed to come your way get to you. That solution is a relationship with Jesus Christ. That solution is for you to cling to the hands of a mighty loving God. That’s how you would get to the place you are going this year. That is how you would receive the gifts that are falling from Heaven for you this year.
