Psalm 118:17-19

Psalm 118:17-19 (KJV)
17 I shall not die, but live, and declare the works of the Lord.
18 The Lord hath chastened me sore: but he hath not given me over unto death.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness: I will go into them, and I will praise the Lord:

Rejoicing In The Salvation Of The Lord

I can finally say that I am done with living a life of sin. I have had enough. My life of guilt and addiction is over. My old life is dead and I am restored through Christ Jesus.

2 Corinthians 7:9,10

2 Corinthians 7:9,10 (KJV)
9 Now I rejoice, not that ye were made sorry, but that ye sorrowed to repentance: for ye were made sorry after a godly manner, that ye might receive damage by us in nothing.
10 For godly sorrow worketh repentance to salvation not to be repented of: but the sorrow of the world worketh death.

Psalm 118:1,2

Psalm 118:1,2 (KJV)
1 O give thanks unto the Lord; for he is good: because his mercy endureth for ever.
2 Let Israel now say, that his mercy endureth for ever.

Oh Lord, all my blessings come from You. You are the bearer of all good things. I give thanks for my many blessings I receive from You daily.

I am grateful to have shelter. I am grateful to have food to eat. You have poured out Your blessings upon me, oh Lord. Not only this, but You have made me stronger. I was weak in the things of this world but now I am strong in the faith. Your words strengthen me and speak to my soul. I love You. I praise Your holy Name. Amen.

Blessings From God

The Lord is so good to us. And because of His goodness, He never forgets to poor out His blessings upon His elect. His children are precious in His sight.

John 3:16-18

John 3:16-18 (KJV)
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

Today’s Prayer (03/05/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, thank You for forgiving me, though I have fallen short so many times. So often have I slipped back into this world but still You welcome me home. I would never find freedom from my sins unless You had come into my life. For many years my life was going nowhere. My sins were so great and I had no way to escape your judgments. I knew of Your wrath and my fear was great. This has led me to call upon Your Name and repent. You heard my confessions and had mercy upon my soul. All my grief was over. Your peace gave me hope for a new day. I was no longer tarnished but covered by Your blood. Thank You Lord. Thank You for the cross. I love You Lord. Amen.

Our Sins Are Paid In Full

What Jesus has done on the cross is the greatest sacrifice of all. He has stepped into our place in judgement. We were found guilty but have been set free.

Mark 7:7-9

Mark 7:7-9 (KJV)
7 Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the commandments of men.
8 For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
9 And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.

Today’s Prayer (03/03/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray that Your ways will become greater in our hearts and minds than our own way of living. Will You help us know what traditions are bad? Help us know what traditions we have kept over the years, in our family, that do not give You glory. I do not wish to sin against You, oh Lord. I do not wish to walk in my own ways. Your ways are higher than my own and I wish to know them better each day. Help me to do so and live in Your light. I love Your teachings from the Bible. I love Your counsel in prayer. Help me to know the errors in my own thinking that I may better follow You. Your doctrines are precious above all things. I wish to cherish them and not add or take away from them. If things are taught in church that are against Your Holy Word, the Bible, give me courage to leave this church. I do not wish to be deceived. Lead me in Your ways. I love You more. Amen.

Traditions Of Men

I was raised in a specific church family with specific values. For many years, I thought I was on the right path.

Psalm 117:1,2

Psalm 117:1,2 (KJV)
1 O praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
2 For his merciful kindness is great toward us: and the truth of the Lord endureth for ever. Praise ye the Lord.

Today’s Prayer (03/01/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, there is so much I want to say. I am so grateful for Your great love for me. You have been so kind towards me, all these years. I have felt every minute of Your encouragement for my soul. You were beckoning me into Your presence even though I lived apart from You. You did not want me to be cast off. Thank You for never giving up hope for my life. I am grateful to finally realize that You do save. You are my Savior and King. I may have once thought that I was to wicked to be forgiven but I was wrong. Your love and mercy never fails. All I needed to do was come unto You in humbleness of heart and You were able to do a work in my life. You saw my confession with joy. That was all it took to transform me from death and into Your light. If I am different, it is because of You. You cleansed me from all my sins and gave me a clean heart. I love You. It is an honor to serve You. Amen.

Reasons To Praise The Lord

Another reason why God’s praise is on my lips is because of His mercy. I would be nothing without His forgiveness for my sins.
