Acts 4:10-12

Acts 4:10-12 (KJV)
10 Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him doth this man stand here before you whole.
11 This is the stone which was set at nought of you builders, which is become the head of the corner.
12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

Today’s Prayer (06/30/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I believe in You. I know that You are my Savior and Lord of all. Only You have the power to take away my sins. Please forgive me. I confess that I am a sinner and have need of Your mercy. Take away the bondage of sin from my life. Cut down the chains that have me bound. Break me free Lord. Lead me away from the lusts of this world and onto Your path. I no longer wish to live apart from Your love. Fill me with Your peace and Your understanding. Help me know how to fight against temptation and truly win the battle. Do help me come out on top, even when it is hard. I need You, Lord, to fight the battle with me. I trust that You can do all things in my life. With You by my side, I am able to come out victorious. For this reason, I give You my life. Do with it as You please. Take my wicked heart and help me live in Your righteousness. I need You. I love You. Amen.

Salvation Through Jesus Christ

There are many things in this life that people trust in but all these things are temporary and lead to destruction, apart from Jesus.

Proverbs 15:1,2

Proverbs 15:1,2 (KJV)
1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.
2 The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness.

Ecclesiastes 3:15-17

Ecclesiastes 3:15-17 (KJV)
15 That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
16 And moreover I saw under the sun the place of judgment, that wickedness was there; and the place of righteousness, that iniquity was there.
17 I said in mine heart, God shall judge the righteous and the wicked: for there is a time there for every purpose and for every work.

Genesis 3:19

Genesis 3:19 (KJV)
19 In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken: for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return.

Today’s Prayer (06/28/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I pray that each one of us looks at our priorities and if they are off base, help us correct them. May our treasures be found in You and not of this world. If there is anything inside of us that loves money or the things, that this world offers, ahead of You, help us discover that part of our lives that we may get rid of it soon, before it festers inside of us. I know that the luxuries of this world look so good and appealing to the flesh. For I have given myself over to these things time and time again, but each time there is shame and regret. My life becomes tarnished. I regret these choices I have made. For that reason, I gave it all to You, Lord. It is not worth building up a small fortune on things in life if it is not going to last or come to dust. I’d rather build my life on solid ground, where Your light shines. Yes Lord, You are my rock and my fortress and my high tower. Lift me up, all my days, to follow You and to do Your will. I trust in You Lord. My heart is Yours. I can’t wait for the day to see You in judgement and rejoice in my Savior. I love You. Amen.

Matthew 21:21,22

Matthew 21:21,22 (KJV)
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.
22 And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.

Today’s Prayer (06/27/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, thank You for teaching me and giving me sound wisdom and knowledge. You have come and answered my prayers as I have come and submitted to You. Thank You for lending an ear to me and hearing my cries. I need You Lord, as a child needs their parents. You are my joy and the substance of all things good in my life. If there is love, You have given it. If there is kindness, You have made it happen. Thank You for taking care of my needs, dear God. You surely supply my wants and desires. There is strength in You Lord. My whole body is strengthened daily as I give myself over to You in prayer. Thank You for hearing my needs this day. Earlier I needed Your help and immediately You answered my prayers. Where strength was lacking, You filled me up and took away my weaknesses. Where there was doubt, there became hope. I know it was Your hand that guided me and helped me. Thank You Lord. I trust in You for answers. You are the rock of my salvation and my hope. I love You. Amen.

Humble Yourselves As A Child

Jesus has told us how we can enter His Father’s kingdom, when he was asked, “who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?”

1 Peter 1:18,19

1 Peter 1:18,19 (KJV)
18 Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;
19 But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

2 Timothy 4:7,8

2 Timothy 4:7,8 (KJV)
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

Today’s Prayer (06/25/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, to think of all the people that have given their lives to You, in persecution, amazes me. It is sad to know that so many people have lost their lives but it is also so wonderful to see them live their faith out to the end. There is so many things in this life that are good but nothing is greater than Your Love. Nothing is better to strive for than to live for You. What You give, nobody can reproduce. Where else can I go for salvation but to You, my Lord? You are my King and it is a blessing and a honor to live a life of faith till the end. If I have to go down in persecution, I will do it freely for Your cause. To be killed, because of my love for You, may it be. As You have given Your life for us all on the cross, I give my life as a living sacrifice to Your great Name also. I love You above all else. I will lift Your Name up high, all my life, no matter the consequence. Because Lord, I am not ashamed of the gospel of Jesus Christ. May Your Name be forever glorified. All praises to my Lord and King. Amen.

Persecution For Righteousness Sake

Surely, there is much rejoicing for those that die in the Lord. So many people have suffered for such a good cause, though it is hard to bear and witness.

Today’s Prayer (06/24/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Oh Lord, I am grateful for Your forgiveness. Thank You for changing my wicked heart and lifting me up to know You. I was so foolish, for so many years of my life. Pride was a big part of it. Because I thought I was wise in my own eyes, Your counsel did not mean anything. For this reason, sin was a big part of my life. My mind was clouded and I could not see the difference between right and wrong. And even when I did, I justified my action. I would say that I could better myself tomorrow. Nobody knows anyways. Oh how foolish my actions were. To think that I could have died and been lost forever, makes me feel so grateful that You have persevered my life, God. Yes Lord, You still had confidence in me, though my heart was far from You. Thank You for bringing me to a point where I was broken and had nowhere else to turn. This led me to find You in prayer. Though I thought there could never be any more mercy for me, You showed it anyways. When I thought I was too wicked for Your love, Your grace covered me. For once in my life, I found true forgiveness and kindness. It is because of You Lord that I am cleansed. I am renewed in Your blood, Jesus. Thank You for Your Mercy, Lord. I love You. Amen.

Proverbs 14:11,12

Proverbs 14:11,12 (KJV)
11 The house of the wicked shall be overthrown: but the tabernacle of the upright shall flourish.
12 There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

1 John 1:7-9

1 John 1:7-9 (KJV)
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Today’s Prayer (06/23/2018)

Daily Prayer:
Lord Jesus, I know that You are my Savior and healer. Through Your great love for me, I am made whole. Though I have lived a life of sin, You have brought me out of this wicked lifestyle. You heard my cries, while I was in darkness and dried up all my tears. Because of Your great mercy, my shame and guilt is no more. You cut loose the bondage of addiction and filled me with Your light. Thank You for hearing my confessions and showing me such love and mercy. I never knew that You could love a person so much until I experienced it for the first time. Your love has changed me. I have been brought out of darkness and into Your light. I no longer desire to serve sin but to follow You, my Lord. I want to live in Your light and experience the life You give to the fullest. I pray that others that have not experienced this love and mercy yet, may be humbled today. May they come to You in prayer and be open in their confessions. I trust that You will come to them, as You have come to me. Heal them and cleanse them from all sin. I know that You can do all things. There is power in Your Name. I love You. Amen.
