MATTHEW 7:1 "JUDGE NOT LEST YE BE JUDGED" i Sundays @ 10:00am – 11:15am
Lord God, we come together in prayer today renewing our minds and declaring your FAVOUR as your children. We also pray for those seeking awareness of the enemy in his deceptive ways. Father show us now how the enemy always uses someone or something that will agree with our weakness so we feel now justified in or even emboldened to fall! Father, you want us to be like salt on the earth, like a candle in the dark, a lighthouse on a hill, STEADFAST, so that others will come to you. Cleanse us anew before we suffer losses that we will not easily recover from, or hinder us from your blessing of completing the mission for our lives. Show us how you want to pierce the darkness of this earthly domain with your light. Help us to remain a positive influence and serve in the places where I live, worship, work, study, play. Thank you Father;
In Jesus The Christ name we pray,
Amen

Beloved, find and maintain peace in Me, says the Lord. From that place nothing can take you off course. And, regardless of the issues of life that would rattle you, eternal perspective will be your mainstay. This is imperative as you strive
to stay on the narrow path that leads ever higher in the realm of the Spirit.
Stand firm; be strong and resolute. It is in your best interest to do so.
Dear Lord God, Thank you for being with us through another day and night. Thank you for answered prayer, and thank you for continuing to love us in spite of myself. I have an expectation of FAVOUR as your child this day.
Today Father, I am keenly aware of people who need people. We all need each other. No man is an island and can stand alone. Father you created us with a need for fellowship and companionship. I pray that every person participating in this devotional time with you, and that every person who is in desperate need of this provision today, will be blessed with at least one very special person or people and with a network of good, Christian brothers and sisters to meet that need of fellowship and companionship. I pray that each one of us will look at ourselves and ask, am I being a positive Christian friend to others? Father show us how to be caring, Christians with concern for my fellow man. God, you are the ultimate one with whom we have fellowship and it is you who can meet needs far beyond what any human being can meet. I pray that you will use us to be a light to those with whom we have contact with in our daily life. May you be pleased and blessed with the fellowship of those who love you. In Jesus The Christ name we pray. Amen.

The enemy is doing his utmost to cause you to focus on the things that discourage you, but you must refuse that temptation. There are things that you do not yet understand; things that have not yet come to light that will make it easier to stay in the flow of My Spirit, says the Lord. Be patient and stay alert. I will guide you through this maze of confusion.
1 Corinthians 14:33
For God is not the author of confusion but of peace, as in all the churches of the saints.
Dear God, We come together in prayer this morning to thank you for the favor you are bestowing on us today. Father, as we reflect on Proverbs 23:12, “Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge,” Father, do we respond to you and your Word with our hearts…or do we do what we do for you out of a sense of duty or obligation? Father bless us with a spirit of certainty and assurance today. Father, we pray that we will always have the right attitude and the right motives. We pray that whatever service we give to you from this day forward will be out of LOVE and as a result of our relationship, blessing and Grace with and from You.
In Jesus The Christ name we pray. Amen.
