My prayer
Lord God, forgive me for not forgiving them. Help me to be more like Jesus. Make my heart pure, and sincere. Transform my mind so that I may think differently therefore I may act differently. Lord, I need you. There is no way I can stand alone. I pray that you fill me with your holy spirit. I want to dwell in your presence. I pray for my friends, family and even enemies. Help our soul, Lord. Guide our footsteps. In Jesus name......Amen
Ephesians 6:12
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world ( 1 John 4:4)
I love this verse. God is greater than anything that this world can throw at us. I read something the other day and I can't remember where it was, but it said that " God loves us as if we were his only". God tells us how much he loves us. I know that I have some people that love me, but I doubt it very seriously that they are willing to send their children as a sacrifice to save me. I love God with every thing in my body. When I read his word I get excited. The bible is great nourishment for your soul. It is impossible to study the bible and not feel some sense of relief. I keep smiling and looking to the hills but I know where my help is coming from.

It is nothing wrong with having standards, even though some may try to make you think otherwise. If you know what you bring to the table, why should you settle for nonsense? A good woman should want a good man and vice versa. People try to make you think that being single is a curse, but personally, I rather be single than be with someone that can't comprehend my worth. You and your partner have to be on the same page. You can't be into church and they are still "turning up" in the club. It won't work. Be patient and wait on the right one. The bible says he who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from The Lord ( Proverbs 18:22). And take note that the scripture says "HE who finds a WIFE" not SHE who finds HIM. Ladies don't be desperate, please. Desperate people take whatever they can get....don't be that woman.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20
19 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; 20 you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
It's already better
Today my best friend called me and said that her mother was now at peace with the situation that she is in. They received some news that can be scary, but it can be overcome with The Lord. When she said that her mother told her "I feel better now" I began to pray because I know that God gives us peace, he gives us joy. I know that he can do anything.I began to shout. I gave God praise for what he is doing in their life. Sometimes God will allow the storm just to get you through. That storm builds strength, endurance, and faith. I turned on the radio and the song that began to play is William Murphy "Im praying for you".... It said "Its already better". I felt that was The Lord telling me that my friend and her family will be okay. It's already better....say it, believe it. Life is a lot easier once you realize where your help comes from.
Psalm 91:1-16
He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler. You will not fear the terror of the night, nor the arrow that flies by day,
Isaiah 43:2-3
When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you
Proverbs 3:6
In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths
Romans 15:13
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope
Psalm 121
I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?
2 My help comes from the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

Shall neither slumber nor sleep.

The Lord is your shade at your right hand.
6 The sun shall not strike you by day,
Nor the moon by night.

6 The sun shall not strike you by day,

He shall preserve your soul.
8 The Lord shall preserve your going out and your coming in
From this time forth, and even forevermore.
He shall preserve your soul.

Embracing truth
I think people hide behind "Judge not, that ye be not judged.For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?" Matthew CH 7:1-3. Telling the truth and being judgmental are two different things. The bible says Galatians 6:1-2 Brothers, if anyone is caught in any transgression, you who are spiritual should restore him in a spirit of gentleness. Keep watch on yourself, lest you too be tempted. Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ. I am a saved woman and I love The Lord with all of my being but I mess up sometimes and I see nothing wrong with my brother or sister in Christ correcting me. Talking about and talking to someone is not the same. We have to stop being so sensitive and learn to embrace truth. No one wants the truth anymore, but a watered down version of what is really going on. Why is that?
