If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me."
"Bear The Load You've Been Given And Follow Jesus"
Jesus told us that the load He gives us is light and that we can certainly carry it.
Let us continue to follow Him without murmuring, complaining or comparing.
Let us carry our load with joy and focus on where Jesus is leading us.
The destination He leads us to will be worth every bit of effort.
Let's Pray (always pray out loud if you can)
Lord Jesus I will pull my own weight, carry my load and I won't complain.
Please strength and encourage me and increase my joy and my faith.
I am proud to be a soldier in Your army.

Amen.

Job 13:15
"Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him."
"Job Trusted God With His Very Life"
Though it appeared that he was dying, Job (pronounced Jobe),
exclaimed that even if the Lord were to take his life, he would still trust the Lord.
God allowed the devil to take everything from Job just to prove that Job would serve God no matter what!
Be like Job was and prove yourself a true servant of God throughout the rest of your life.
Even when tragedy strikes, plan on doing the right thing or the thing your won't later regret!
Let's Pray (always pray out loud if you can)
Lord Jesus I put my trust and my life in Your more than capable hands.
I trust You to take what You need to take and to add what You need to add.
Please strengthen me and teach me to be absolutely loyal like Job was.

we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture."
"Live Your Life Wholeheartedly For The One That Created You!"
We were made by God and for God and life works best when we live for the purpose for which we were made.
We are like sheep and Jesus is the good shepherd. We need Him more than we know.
The world lives for itself and it is always in want, lack and disappointment.
Let's Pray (always pray out loud if you can)
Lord Jesus I understand and believe that You made me and that I am the sheep of Your pasture.
I will do as You command and will follow as You lead.

"Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise:
be thankful unto him, and bless his name."
"Getting To The Presence of God"
It is so profitable to get into the presence of God and is worth any effort you put into doing it.
His presence strengthens us, brings joy, peace, healing, instruction, correction and blessing.
We can enter His presence by being thankful. Take time to tell Him what you are thankful for.
Take time to praise Him by telling Him how awesome and mighty He is.
Call on the name of Jesus and exclaim that there is no name higher than or equal to His name.
Let's Pray (always pray out loud if you can)
Lord Jesus I am so thankful for the life You've given me and for the countless blessings I have.
I thank You for health, strength, joy, peace and love. I praise You because of Who You are.

Please order my steps and keep me from all manner of evil in my thoughts and actions this day.

Amen.

"Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report;
if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
"This Is A Good One To Memorize: Regulate Your Thinking"
Most people waste a lot of time thinking of things that aren't profitable and things that can bring them down.
God desires for us to grow and to continue to grow and good thinking is the way to do it.
Fill your mind with things that are true, positive, beautiful, clean, fair and helpful.
Enjoy your life and endeavor to keep it good by keeping your thinking pure.
Let's Pray (always pray out loud if you can)
Lord Jesus I ask You to purify my mind and regulate my thoughts.
I pray that You intertwine my thoughts with Your thoughts.
I rebuke negativity, impurity and untrue thoughts.

"Don't Stare At A Lie Or You May End Up Believing It!"
Stick to the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth.
Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life and no one can get to God except through Jesus.

"Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you."
"What A Privilege To Be Called A Friend of Jesus!"
How awesome it is that we can go to the highest power in the universe with a prayer that He hears!

the Kingdom and things that profit us and those around us!
I am so glad to be called a friend of the One who has a name above every other name!
Lord Jesus thank You for the honor a being one of Your friends.
Thank You for Your love, protection and direction that continuously benefits me.
Please order my steps this day and open and shut doors that fit Your perfect will for me.

If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you;
if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also."
"Don't Be Surprised When Some Persecute Your For Being A Believer"
Religious and worldly people hated Jesus and went as far as to try to kill Him.
Jesus was mocked, doubted and falsely accused and we are not different.
Jesus is saying we are not great than He is. He is the Master and we are His servants.
Mocking and lying about you will happen at times, but be glad that His light is in you.
Don't be discouraged but be encouraged that your name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life!
Lord Jesus I will go through whatever I need to go through for Your sake.
Your grace is enough for me and You are a perfect provider and protector.
Be glorified through my life and continue to order my steps.

which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?"
"Your Body Belongs To Godl"
Many live their lives thinking that their body belongs to them but it really belongs to God.
Treat your body like it is God's property and don't contaminate it in any way.
Take care of your body and remember you shouldn't do "just anything" you feel like doing.
Keep your body clean to include what you watch and listen to.
Lord Jesus I understand that my body belongs to you.
Please forgive me for when I haven't treated it as such.
Please cleanse me this day and use me however You see fit.

the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed."
"Jesus Purchased Our Salvation, Our Peace and Our Healingl"
Jesus was brutally beaten for our sins so that we would not have to endure eternity in darkness.

"Holy Ghost Power Is Real Today!"
The power of the Holy Ghost is just as powerful now as it was over 2,000 years ago.
The Word of God tells us not to be drunk with wine but to be filled with the Spirit.
The Holy Spirit will keep, guide and teach you.

"He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life:

"Watch Your Mouth and Avoid Destruction"
The true strength of a person can be measured by his ability to keep his mouth closed.
We cannot be reminded enough to think before we speak especially considering all we say is written down.
We have the power to speak life and to rebuke death every single day.
Let your life be your testimony and only use words if you have to!
Lord Jesus I ask for Your divine help in ruling over my tongue.
I resist the urge to say whatever comes into my mind.
I will pray more before I speak.

"In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you."
"Be Thankful Always!"
This is the will of the Lord concerning you that you continually give thanks in all things.
The opposite of being thankful is to be a complainer.
Begin to name things out loud that you are thankful to God for.
Once you start you will start to realize just how much you have to be thankful.
Have an attitude of gratitude not just on today, but for the rest of your days!
Lord Jesus I give you thanks for Your provision, my health, strength and for Your mercy on me.
Thank you for paying the terrible price you paid for my sins.
Thank you so much that my name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life.

Psalms 37:11
"But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace."
"Meek Does Not Mean Weak"
To be meek is to be able to endure hardness with patience and without complaining.
A meek person is in control of his/her emotions and does not need harsh words to accomplish winning.
A meek person gets to have the luxury of peace even in the middle of a storm.
Meekness is not a sign of weakness but of great strength and self control.
Prideful, boastful, and argumentative people are the opposite of meek.
Lord Jesus it is my desire to be like You when You walked upon this earth.
You were meek and yet so strong. You were and still are full of compassion.
Please help me today to study and walk out meekness that I may glorify You.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.

Ecclesiastes 7:9
"Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools."
"Don't Hold On To Anger!"
You have heard the term "let it go," but make it go when it comes to anger.
Don't hold on to it because it is ultimately bad for you and leads to quick destruction.
It is lawful to be angry but it is never a license to sin.
Allow the Lord to remind you to slow your roll when it comes to reacting when angry.
Remember the Lord hears your prayers and will continue to lead you even when you are upset!
Lord Jesus I exercise the power that You gave me over all of the power of the devil
and I rebuke the spirit of anger in the name of Jesus.
Lord I receive Your peace and Your wisdom in every situation I face.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.

I will not be hard headed or rebellious.
I will obey You.

Not Fun But Worth It!
While the process of being corrected is no fun, the benfefits are great.
Correction makes us better and leads us to a better place than where we are.
Endure correction and thank God for it because He loves you!
Lord Jesus I thank You for and welcome Your correction.
Your ways are way higher than my ways.
I refuse to allow rebellion to be active in my life.
