PRAYER Is the path to everything you and I could ever need…The path to GOD Himself.

Heavenly Father I am struggling to be who You have called me to be- but I know that through YOU and Your strength, I can do anything. Jesus, give me the: The words to pray for my enemies. A heart that is healed and filled by Your word instead of one broken by another’s words and actions. A spirit that seeks You and glorifies You instead of seeking vengeance or to please people. Ears that hear Your words and direction over the voice of my own pain. James 4:7 – Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Pray so big and so often that when GOD meets you at Heaven’s gate, He says with a smile, “Kid, you kept me very busy.”

Satan deceives people into thinking that the source of their misery is due to their circumstances and what is going on around them, but actually, the real trouble is due to what is going on inside them. When our focus is on GOD and His sovereignty, our attitudes begin to change.

The Lord doesn’t see things the way you see them. People judge by outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. 1 Samuel 16:7

Father God, please transform my heart, my mind, my soul, my spirit, my everything. For You are the ultimate Transformer.

What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus. What can make me whole again? Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

When you stumble, tell God you are sorry and try it again. Do not give up. Do not throw in the towel. We all fall down. Be the one who gets up and fulfills the Lord’s plan for your life. Do it now. No one can change the past, and fortunately, His plan for you is not behind you; it is ahead of you. Stop looking behind you at the things that you cannot change and make the best of what is left

Every good thing that has happened in your life happened because something changed.

Our Heavenly Father, in the sight of those who do me wrong, You invite me to sit at the table with You. There, You offer me even more than I need, and You remind me that I am significant and special. You call me to goodness and kindness every day of my life, and Your house will be my home, my whole life long.
