Monday Scripture:
Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet our inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment (as seen from God’s eternity), is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at things which are seen but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. 2 Corinthians 14-16(NASB)
Monday Inspiration:
All of our help comes from the Lord! This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. I encourage you to take a little time out to smell the roses. Pause with me for a praise break! I don’t know how you feel, but I will bless the Lord at all times and his praise shall continuously be in my mouth! As I reflect back over my life, I can tell you that I’ve had some good days, and I’ve had some bad days, but I won’t complain. God has been too good. I encourage you to keep the faith and focus on God. Remember God is control. And He will and can do anything but fail. We must trust the process and the journey! God will give us exactly what we need on a daily basis!! Allow him to fill your cup until it overflows. As a sign of expectancy and symbolically; please open up your hands and receive what God has for you today. And remember what God has for you is for you! No devil can stop what He has destined for you! He will give us strength for the journey! God is stretching our faith, and he’s asking us whose account do we believe? Do we really believe that his word is true; and that HE is better than Allstate? Remember we can depend on him! And for some of us, he’s maturing us, it’s important for us to KNOW who we are in Christ. And yet for others God is teaching us how to have a fluid prayer life, to seek His face on a daily basis. In doing so we acknowledge the need Him for guidance and direction in our life. Remember the God we serve is a jealous God. And so many of us are guilty of putting everything before him. And in the end, God will be glorified! Every day focus on the goodness of God, and allow him to confirm in your Spirit what he’s trying to work out within you. Amen!
Monday Prayer:
Spirit of the living God, father once again we come humbly before your throne, giving all thanks to you for blessing us to see another day. Truly there is none like you in all the earth. Forgive us for falling short of your glory. Take us, make us, and mold us into that which is pleasing in your sight. We are truly praying that not our will, but thy will be done. Father thank you for being the author and finisher of our faith! We believe that better days are coming! Father we believe that greater is he that is within us, than he that is of this world. We believe that no weapon that is formed against us, can, shall, or will prosper. Oh Lord we believe that our best is yet to come. We thank you because we believe that you are able to do exceedingly and abundantly above anything that we can ask or think. Thank you Lord that we will be triumphant over every challenge and obstacle that we are faced with on today. Allow us to set aside out own challenges today, and be a blessing to someone else who can’t repay us. Father we pray that you will continue to keep us safe and protected from dangers seen and unseen. Help us to be obedient to your will not only today but every day! Lord as states are easing restrictions please help us to operate with wisdom and do what will keep our families safe. Please allow your will to be done. We come against and we bind up every plot, plan, and scheme of Satan. We decree and declare that we are our brother’s keeper! Thank you for supplying all of our needs. We pray that every need will continue to be met in every household. We declare and decree that are we are walking by faith and not by sight. For it’s in your darling son Jesus, we pray, give thanks, and say Amen!
