I know that wisdom will only come inside our hearts and minds, when we are fully open to receive You. We cannot just hear but also be doers of what You say. Lord, what You have shown me is so amazing. I wish everyone could gain the same or similar gifts of the Spirit for they delight my soul. I admit that there was a time that my heart was closed off to Your will but once I opened up to You fully, my life was changed forever. I no longer delighted in the things I could do, but what I could do for You Lord. And this desire has carried forth till this day. In all this time, Your wisdom has been on full display. You have opened my eyes to things I never knew before. This understanding amazes me in every way. For once in my life, I have direction. There is peace in my life. I am filled with Your love. Because of Your hand in my life, I am stronger. I am bold to testify of You. Thank You for changing me. Thank You for seeing my brokenness and helping me become new. I am Yours and You are mine. I love You. Amen.

Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, I am so grateful for marriage. Thank You for leading me to a virtuous woman, in my wife. Elizabeth has blessed my life, more than I will ever know. The day I met her, there was love, and I know that You kept her for me. I didn’t have to look far and wide for you led me to her. The love we found in marriage was magical and I am so grateful for that day, Lord. Having You close to my heart, over these years, has helped me realize the love I once had and how You can make it stronger. You are able to build upon the relationship I have now with my wife and make it grow ever so stronger. And one thing I’ve realized Lord, over the years, is that with You in my life, the love for my wife is greater. There is less of a struggle but more of a building up of a beautiful friendship. You have helped lay the foundation of what love is and with that love in my life, my marriage has grown stronger. I pray Lord, that You will continue to build it up every day. I want us both to grow and learn together in Your knowledge Lord. I want our children to see our faith and desire to learn of You also. I trust in You Lord. I love You. Amen.

Today’s Prayer (08/04/2018)
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, I pray that people awake to their sins and receive You into their lives, before death takes them. So much time is ticking away in people’s lives and they don’t realize it. Most people don’t even know that tomorrow is their day of reckoning with You in judgement. And the sad thing is, they have not been forgiven, nor been born again. There life is on the rocks and nothing will save them but Your blood alone. You have been waiting for them to call upon Your Name for mercy but instead, they have delayed Your call. Where so many people could be accepted into Your presence and experience heaven, instead they have chosen a different path to hell. My heart is grieved by this choice that people are making. Please wake them up to the sins they are committing, that they may repent today and have every chain be broken. I know that You have the power to save any person from their sins. Even those people that have shown no fruits in their belief in You, You are able to revive them to do Your will. I pray for a change of heart in more people before judgement day. May they experience Your great love and endure in their faith till the end. It is so wise, and I pray that more people make this decision today. I know You can do all things for those that put their trust in You, Jesus. I love You. Amen.

Today’s Inspiration (08/02/2018)
If doing God’s will seems hard or burdensome than check yourself. How is your relationship with the Lord?
Today’s Prayer (08/02/2018)
Daily Prayer:Lord, I pray that people in the faith will all build a relationship with You. May they begin to put You first in their lives. Therefore, doing Your will, will no longer be a burden. It will no longer be a chore to serve You or our fellow men and women. With You in our lives and directing our paths, we have the strength to serve You. There is power in Your Name. Therefore, we are lifted up. It is only when we put down our trust in You that things start to fall apart. We begin to doubt things and feel burdened by doing Your will. I’ve seen it Lord, many people proclaim to know You but when asked to do service, often time they do not respond in favor of it, or for some that do, you can soon see that a few of them feel burdened. I know that there are many people that have become content with their own lives and do not wish to do new things. These feelings, Lord, are very detrimental to You and Your Kingdom. It really saddens me to see people so far off from serving You and doing Your will. May there be a revival in their hearts today. Spark something inside of them, that they may discover You in a new way. May a true change occur and their desires to get out there and do Your will become a reality. I know this can happen. I trust in You, God. I love You. Amen.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

Giving our lives to Jesus is the best decision we will ever make. We are then secure on His path, through His mercy and grace.
Today’s Prayer (08/01/2018)
Daily Prayer:Lord, we come to You in all humility. Our hearts are open to receive You today. We confess that we are a sinner and have need of Your blood for forgiveness of sins. We cannot live in our addictions and shame any longer. Our burdens are heavy and we need Your yoke to come upon us. Have mercy upon us Lord. We are sorry for living after the lusts of the flesh and apart from You. Our soul cannot take it any longer and we want to be made free from all this bondage. Take us in Lord. Break us free today. Take every evil thought and replace it with Your knowledge and wisdom. Help us live a life that pleases You. Lead us and guide us and give us strength to endure. We need Your strength and not our own to overcome temptation. We know that we cannot do this on our own. We are lost without You. We need the power of God to save us from our sins. Thank You Lord for hearing our cries. We know that You are there and will deliver us this day. Take us now into Your arms. Lift us up, oh Lord. We love You, all merciful God and King. Amen.
