Powerful Prayer

The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.
(James 5:16)
*Dearly beloved, our Lord is a prayer answering God. We have hope in Him
because He answers our prayers. The Bible says, “O You who hear prayer, to
You all flesh will come” (Psalms 65:2). You may say, “I’ve been praying for
more than ten years but still there is no answer to my prayer.” Do not be
disheartened! Today, the Lord will answer your prayers and wipe away your
tears.

Apostle James teaches us as how to pray to God. He says, “The prayer of a
righteous man is powerful and effective” (James 5:16). The prayer of a
righteous man is effective. Today when you pray as a righteous man, the Lord
will answer all your prayers. You may say, “I’m not a righteous man because
I have shortcomings in my life. Will the Lord answer my prayers?” When our
heart condemns us like this, we are unable to pray and fear that the Lord
will chasten us.

You may ask, “How can I become righteous so that my prayers can be
effective?" In Luke 18:10-14, we see that two men went to the temple to
pray. One was a Pharisee and the other was a tax collector. The Pharisee
prayed within himself saying, “Lord, I’m not like the unjust and wicked men.
I give my tithes regularly and I fast twice a week.” The Pharisee exalted
himself before God and asked Him to bless him whereas the tax collector
stood outside the temple and did not even lift his eyes to heaven because of
his unworthiness to enter the temple. He beat his breast and said, “Lord, be
merciful to me a sinner!” The Lord says that the tax collector who cried out
to God to have mercy on him was made righteous. He pleaded to God to show
mercy to him and not despise his prayer. The Lord answered the cries of the
tax collector and made him righteous.

Dearly beloved, today the Lord is desirous to make you righteous. The Bible
says, “He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and
forsakes them will have mercy” (Proverbs 28:13). Acknowledge your sin before
the Lord and forsake your sinful ways. He will make you righteous and answer
all your prayers.

Prayer:

Loving Lord Jesus,

I humble myself before You. Cleanse me with Your precious blood. Take away
the things that displease You in my life and draw me closer to You. Make me
righteous and let Your mercy and loving-kindness fill my life. I give You
all glory, honour and praise.

In Your matchless name I pray.

Amen.*

Kingdom of Heaven

.

Matthew 22:2,3

“The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son.

He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to come, 

but they refused to come.

.

.

4 - ‘Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner: 

My oxen and fattened cattle have been butchered, and everything is ready. 

Come to the wedding banquet.’

.

.

5 “But they paid no attention and went off—one to his field, another to his business.

6 The rest seized his servants, mistreated them and killed them.

7 The king was enraged. He sent his army and destroyed those murderers and burned their city.

.

.

8 Then he said to his servants, ‘The wedding banquet is ready, 

but those I invited did not deserve to come.

9 So go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you find.

10 So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could find, 

the bad as well as the good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.

.

.

11 “But when the king came in to see the guests, 

he noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.

12 He asked, ‘How did you get in here without wedding clothes, friend?’ 

The man was speechless.

13 “Then the king told the attendants, ‘Tie him hand and foot, 

and throw him outside, into the darkness, 

where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’

.

.

Revelation 16:15

“Look, I come like a thief! 

Blessed is the one who stays awake and remains clothed, 

so as not to go naked and be shamefully exposed.”

.

.

Revelation 3

3 Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. 

But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, 

and you will not know at what time I will come to you.

4 Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. 

They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy.

.

.

Matthew 24

43 But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, 

he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into

44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.

.

.

Matthew 22:14 “For many are invited, but few are chosen.”

.

Revelation 3

5 The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. 

I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life, 

but will acknowledge that name before my Father and his angels.

6 Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

.

Jesus Is Coming Very Very Soon !

Beginning Today

.

Psalm 118:24

This is the day the LORD has made;
       let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Beginning Today

Beginning today I will no longer worry about yesterday.
It is in the past and the past will never change.
Only I can change by choosing to do so.

Beginning today I will no longer worry about tomorrow.
Tomorrow will always be there, waiting for me to make the most of it.
But I cannot make the most of tomorrow without first
making the most of today.

Beginning today I will look in the mirror and I will see a person worthy of my respect and admiration.
This capable person looking back at me is someone I enjoy spending time with and someone I would like to get to know better.

Beginning today I will cherish each moment of my life.
I value this gift bestowed upon me in this world and I will unselfishly share this gift with others.
I will use this gift to enhance the lives of others.

Beginning today I will take a moment to step off the beaten path and to revel in the mysteries I encounter.
I will face challenges with courage and determination.
I will overcome what barriers there may be which hinder my quest for growth and self-improvement.

Beginning today I will take life one day at a time, one step at a time.
Discouragement will not be allowed to taint my positive self-image,
my desire to succeed or my capacity to love.

Beginning today I walk with renewed faith in human kindness.
Regardless of what has gone before, I believe there is hope
for a brighter and better future.

Beginning today I will open my mind and my heart.
I will welcome new experiences. I will meet new people.
I will not expect perfection from myself nor anyone else: perfection does not exist in an imperfect world.
But I will applaud the attempt to overcome human foibles.

Beginning today I am responsible for my own happiness and I will do things that make me happy 

. . .
admire the beautiful wonders of nature, listen to my favorite music,
pet a kitten or a puppy, soak in a bubble bath . . .
pleasure can be found in the most simple of gestures.

Beginning today I will learn something new; I will try something different; I will savor all the various flavors life has to offer.
I will change what I can and the rest I will let go.
I will strive to become the best me I can possibly be.

Beginning today. And every day.

Just a thought, but as I often think of you and realize how much God loves you, sometimes I think we need to also love ourselves through His eyes. God Bless.

"He is" - Jesus

He is the First and Last, the Beginning and the End!
He is the keeper of Creation and the Creator of all!
He is the Architect of the universe and
The Manager of all times.
He always was, He always is, and He always will be...
Unmoved, Unchanged, Undefeated, and never Undone!
He was bruised and brought healing!
He was pierced and eased pain!
He was persecuted and brought freedom!
He was dead and brought life!
He is risen and brings power!
He reigns and brings Peace!
The world can't understand him,
The armies can't defeat Him,
The schools can't explain Him, and The leaders can't ignore Him.
Herod couldn't kill Him,  The Pharisees couldn't confuse Him, and
The people couldn't hold Him!
Nero couldn't crush Him,
Hitler couldn't silence Him,
The New Age can't replace Him, and Donahue can't explain Him away!
He is light, love, longevity, and Lord.
He is goodness, Kindness, Gentleness, and God.
He is Holy, Righteous, mighty, powerful, and pure.
His ways are right,
His word is eternal, His will is unchanging, and
His mind is on me.
He is my Redeemer,
He is my Savior,
He is my guide, and
He is my peace!
He is my Joy,
He is my comfort,
He is my Lord, and
He rules my life!
I serve Him because His bond is love, His burden is light, and His goal for me is abundant life.
I follow Him because He is the wisdom of the wise,
The power of the powerful, The ancient of days, the ruler of rulers,
The leader of leaders, the overseer of the overcomers, and The sovereign Lord of all that was and is and is to come.
And if that seems impressive to you, try this for size.
His goal is a relationship with ME! He will never leave me, Never forsake me, Never mislead me, Never forget me, Never overlook me, and Never cancel my appointment in His appointment book!
When I fall, He lifts me up!
When I fail, He forgives!
When I am weak, He is strong!
When I am lost, He is the way!
When I am afraid, He is my courage!
When I stumble, He steadies me!
When I am hurt, He heals me!
When I am broken, He mends me!
When I am blind, He leads me!
When I am hungry, He feeds me!
When I face trials, He is with me!
When I face persecution, He shields me!
When I face problems, He comforts me!
When I face loss, He provides for me!
When I face Death, He carries me Home!
He is everything for everybody, everywhere, Every time, and every way.
He is God, He is faithful.
I am His, and He is mine!
My Father in heaven can whip the father of this world. So, if you're wondering why I feel so secure, understand this...
He said it and that settles it.
God is in control, I am on His side, and That means all is well with my soul.
Everyday is a blessing for GOD Is!

USED vs LOVED

While a man was polishing his new car, his 4 yr old son picked up a
stone and scratched lines on the side of the car.
In anger, the man took the child's hand and hit it many times not
realizing he was using a wrench.

At the hospital, the child lost all his fingers due to multiple fractures.

When the child saw his father with painful eyes he asked, 'Dad when
will my fingers grow back?'
The man was so hurt and speechless; he went back to his car and kicked
it a lot of times.

Devastated by his own actions, sitting in front of that car he looked
at the scratches; the child had written 'LOVE YOU DAD'.

Anger and Love have no limits; choose the latter to have a beautiful,
lovely life & remember this:
Things are to be used and people are to be loved.
The problem in today's world is that people are used while things are loved.

Let's try always to keep this thought in mind:
Things are to be used,
People are to be loved.

Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character;
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

I'm glad a sweet person forwarded this to me as a reminder. I hope you
have a good day no matter what problems you may face
it's the only day you'll have before it's over.
