2 Corinthians 5:17

"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature:

old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."

You Are NOT the Same!

Now that you have received Jesus Christ as YOUR Savior, remember that YOU are new today!

Jesus washed your sins away and has made you new. You have been born again!

Leave darkness in the dark and refuse to turn back to your old ways.

You are a container that is to remain full of the Holy Ghost.

Feed your spirit God's Word daily and keep growing!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, thank You for making me brand new and for writing my name in the Lamb's Book of Life!

Please continue to teach me Your ways and I will obey.

Holy Spirit fill me up full and guide me today.

I have been born again!

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Proverbs 18:21

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

What Did You Say?

Your words have power and they effect people around you every day.

Staying in God's Word and having a prayer life will drastically change the words you use.

God expects us to be holy (clean) in all manner of conversation and He will help us do that!

Pray throughout the day, especially about the words you use before you use them.

Be a life giver with the words you choose and be an example of Godliness!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and ask You to help me choose the words I use.

I am full of Light and don't want to spread darkness but I want to give Life.

Please guide me in all conversations and gestures I make today.

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

James 1:4

"But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing."

Patience Is A Kingdom Key!

We live in a time where we are used to getting what we want quickly.

BK, McDonalds, Taco Bell, microwaves, phones, internet get us what we want in a hurry.

When it comes to living for Jesus, patience is an ingredient that gets us to satisfaction or contentment.

Patience brings promotions, blessing, favor and maturity, just to name a few!

When we wait on the Lord, He renews us, strengthens us, teaches us and prepares us.

When we pray today, we are going to ask for patience, but it won't most likely be dumped in your lap,

but God will send the tools to help you in this area by reminding you that frustration and intolerance are

signs that we need to EXERCISE our patience. When we exercise patience, our patience will increase!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and ask You to remind me to exercise this important fruit of Your Spirit.

Today I commit to pray before I react and I commit to slow my roll and hear Your voice.

I desire to be more like You and I am willing to die to my flesh and to let Your perfect will be done in me!

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Hebrews 12:1

"Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,"

Let Patience Continue Today and Every Day!

Jesus let us know that the person that makes it to be with Him, is the one who endures until the end.

Let patience be part of your life style and reputation because Jesus is coming back for a ready church.

Leave sin and darkness in the past and don't walk according to your feelings,

and remember that the Lord is watching over you.

Take time today to S.P.L.I.T..... (STOP, PRAY, LISTEN INTENTLY, and TRUST!)

Send us your S.P.L.I.T. report by clicking on the prayer link below and share what the Lord has done for you!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and ask You to remind me to continue in patience.

I will obey You as I hear You reminding me that I am a container full of Your Light and to be patient.

I break every power of darkness that would try to get me to act on impulse without prayer.

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

2 Corinthians 6:17-18

"Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord,

and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
And will be a Father unto you, and ye shall be my sons and daughters,

saith the Lord Almighty."

As you continue on this journey with the Lord you will continue to experience His hand

making changes in your life, especially in the area of relationships.

Allow this process to take place and trust the Lord in the area with all of your heart.

Not every relationship is healthy and some will try to draw you back into what you used to do.

If you already know that a relationship is unclean, ask the Lord to help you to separate from it.

You are now a son/daughter of the Lord and all of Heaven is behind you!

Don't trade that for relationships that will hinder your progress!

Pray for those who try to hurt you or reject you for your faith and leave darkness in the past!

God is with you and He will NOT leave you and He will NOT fail you!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and ask You to continue to sanctify me for Your use.

I understand that to be sanctified means for me to be separate from the darkness of this world

and to be set apart for Your use and for Your perfect will to be done.

I put my trust in You and know that You are real and I will not lean to my own understanding.

I reject fear and the spirit of abandonment because I know You are with me!

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Proverbs 3:5

"Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding."

Trust Issues

Just because people have let you down doesn't mean God will.

He can never fail, He is never wrong and His timing is perfect!

We are not always going to understand what God is up to, but His ways are higher than ours.

Trust Him with your life, your relationships and your future because you can!

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and I put my trust wholly and completely in you.

I cast all of my cares upon You because You care for me and You can handle them!

Today I will be free from fear, worry, anxiety and doubt because You are trustworthy.

I cast down every thought that would say any different than that!

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Proverbs 3:6

"In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."

Pray Through Everything!

Try praying about everything you do before you do it and see what happens!

God wants to be involved in every aspect of your life and He is never wrong and never late!

If you pray before you speak, the Holy Spirit will guide your tongue and give you words of life.

If you pray before you go and do something, He will open and shut doors for you.

God will always lead you to something better than you would lead yourself to.

His ways are so much higher than our ways and He is always looking out for our good!

After you pray, take a minute or two to listen to what the Spirit is saying and then trust Him.

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and I ask You to direct my paths today to line up with Your will.

I understand that Your plans are higher than my plans and that Your way leads to life.

Please bless my family and order my steps. Open and shut doors for me.

I put my trust in You!

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

2 Timothy 1:7

"For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind."

You NEVER Have to Be Afraid!

The fear, depression, addiction, anxiety and insecurity do not come from God.

God gives us love, joy, peace, patience and blessing when we walk according to His Word.

When we obey God we have no other way to be other than blessed!

When you serve God, YOU have power over the devil....not the other way around.

Choose to serve God with your whole heart today and experience His greatness.

This is a choice we have to make every day. You will never regret serving Him!

Take time to pray the prayer below out loud as often as you need to.

Let's Pray (Always pray out loud if you can)

Lord Jesus, I commit my life to You today and I use MY authority that YOU gave me over the devil.

I bind the spirit of fear and every other spirit that God did not send to me in the name of Jesus.

I receive the love, joy and peace that God has for me and I will obey the Lord Jesus who saved me.

Jesus I am Yours and You are mine and today I am COMPLETELY FREE.

I put my trust in You and my life is in Your hands.

I am more than a winner.

In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.
