Prayer for an Intervention in our lives.

Genesis 25: 21 “Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was barren: and the LORD answered him and his wife conceived.”

Do you need a breakthrough in your life today? As we focus on the Word for today we see that Isaac prayed to the LORD on behalf of his wife, because she was barren.  I read this and saw the answer immediately after “and the LORD answered him and his wife conceived.”

Come and stand in agreement with me for people we love and care for. I am thinking of my own Son Jacques who needs a good job, and I am thinking of my stepdaughter Alezandra who needs a good job, I am thinking of my stepson Pieter who needs a good job. I am thinking of my Mom and her husband who need a cheaper safer place to stay. I am thinking of myself who also needs a good pay permanent job.

Humbly heavenly Father I come into Your presence today, Lord You know my heart and understand my trials and circumstances. Lord as I focus on today I want to pray asking that You will hear my prayers. Lord I bring my family to You in humble prayer asking that You will bless each person I mentioned with what they need. Lord I also pray for my friends and other family. I ask that whatever the need is that You will address it and help them. Your word shows me that Isaac receive an answer immediately. When I stand before Your Throne of Grace I am praying in humble prayer help each one of us. We need Your hand of supernatural favor in our lives today. A shift for each one of us in the Holy Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, I declare the precious blood of Jesus Christ over each and every one I prayed for asking that You seal us with Your blood today. Amen

#Pray for #Peace

LORD God today I humbly come into YOUR presence and I want to declare Your Word in my life and ask for Your peace. I declare Isaiah 26 verse 3 over my life “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in you.” Psalm 29 verse 11 “The LORD give strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace.”

LORD God please help me to understand YOUR perfect peace in my own mind so that I also may become steadfast and only trust in YOU.  LORD strengthen me and LORD bless me with YOUR peace.  LORD help me not to worry about useless things or thoughts.  I bring my heart to YOU so that it will not be troubled and help me guard my mind and heart in Christ Jesus.

Please show me what I need to confess in my own life and help me settle my nerves and calm my mind. Help me to focus on YOUR goodness and Your faithfulness and Your healing power and Your overflowing resources and Your forgiving.  Come back into my life and help me I feel I am drowning right now. ABBA Father, I truly want to know You better and I know what I need to confess in my life so that I am able to change. Today I am opening my heart, soul and mind come into my life just as I am.

LORD I am giving all my worries and concerns to You asking that You will deal with them, give me the peace of mind I need. Bless my hands today so that I am able to do my work to honor You. In the name of Christ Jesus Amen.

Take control of your thoughts

Proverbs 23: 7 “As he thinketh in his heart, so is he.”

Taking control of my thoughts has been a daily thing lately in my own life. In the past I have been so reactive and allowed people to upset me. The best part is that when I realize someone is taking up my thoughts I push them out immediately. I don’t see the use of constantly worrying about what they think of me, or whether I offended them or not. These thoughts are useless and not necessary they don’t help me grow in any way.

I want to improve my thought life and am constantly reading and focusing on God’s word. I want to grow spiritually and the word (the Bible) is my focus point.

Something that struck me was a German proverb which says: “Better an empty purse than an empty head.” Now more than ever I am constantly thinking about things, looking at how I can improve myself and become a better thinker.

I am constantly thinking ahead and I believe with foresight I might be able to change things. I don’t want to be left in the lurch. It has always been my policy to look for the best in people and not the worst.

Prayer

Lord God Almighty, I AM WHO I AM, today I want to humbly pray help me to focus on this principle in my own life. LORD I want to learn to think on “whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable – if anything is excellent or praiseworthy – I want to think about such things.” Please help me LORD in renewing my thought life, because I want to become more like YOU. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen

The Names of God #I_AM_WHO_I_AM

Exodus 3: 13-15 ESV “Then Moses said to God, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, “The God of your fathers has sent me to you,” and they ask me, “What is his name?” what shall I say to them?” God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” And he said, “Say this to the people of Israel: “I AM has sent me to you.” God also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: “The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.” This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered through all generations.”

Today we are focusing on the Jehovah’s names. The name of the Independent and self-complete being is “I AM WHO I AM” – this name only belongs to God.

I wonder whether we truly understand God and if we truly worship Him the way we should when we hear this awesome name do we actually fall down in fear and awe of WHO God truly is? Let’s be honest now days we have become too familiar with God, He is the Old man upstairs and He is the Creator.

LORD I am trying in my own way to come and worship YOU. I want to make it know that I love and adore YOU. I dedicate my life into YOUR hands. You LORD are the One who created the earth and everything in it. YOU create man and woman. YOU are the ONE who sustains us and I want to bring YOU praise. 

LORD I love and adore YOU. I want to come before YOU in humility and worship YOU. Thank YOU LORD for this day. Thank YOU LORD for answered prayers. THANK YOU LORD for giving me this opportunity to praise YOUR HOLY NAME. 

HOLY HOLY HOLY is YOU LORD GOD Almighty. LORD “I AM WHO I AM” I praise YOUR HOLY Name.

Prayer

I AM WHO I AM, thank You that I am able to come to YOU. I want to bring YOU praise and thank YOU for this day. You are in control of my life and I want to pray for family and friends. Protect each person I love dearly and watch over each one of us today. Bless YOU LORD I worship and adore YOU. You are my All and All. In the Holy name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Amen

#God is #Omniscient.

Psalm 139: 1 – 4 O LORD, you have searched me and know me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up: you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, beholding, O LORD, you know it altogether.”

As we sit down and think about this scripture and what it means I want to remind you today to keep in mind God know everything.  The meaning of Omniscient is “Omni” means “all” and “scient” means “knowing.”

This idea that God know all is comforting to me as it reassures me that God know when I am struggling and when I call out to Him in prayer He knows what my issues are.

I keep reminding my kids that God knows where you stay, God knows your name, God knows what you were doing and is always watching. Because God knows all I can come to Him and confess what I did wrong and ask Him to forgive me. He knows the motives and thoughts I have and knows when I am genuine and will help me.

Prayer

LORD please forgives me today if I have offended you in anyway. I am not perfect and my thoughts aren’t perfect either. I miss the plot many times and I seem to trample on peoples toes too often. I also think that I just don’t always fit in but by your grace I am still around. Help me with my problems of self-excepting and show me the way forward. In the holy name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
