In order to move forward into the greatness God has for us, it’s important that our focus is on the future he has preordained! (Jeremiah 29:11) No matter the circumstances, I encourage you to remain focused by mediating on God’s Word, praying continually and not allowing the people, places and things of this world distract you. God has greater for you! God’s Word To You : “Forget the former things, It is nothing compared to what I am going to do! I am going to do something new. It is already happening!” (Isaiah 43:18-19) Pray This Prayer With Me : Father, today I surrender to you all that I have and all that I am and I ask that you continue to order my steps. May I continually declare with total confidence and conviction, "greater is coming for me!" I humbly pray, in Jesus' name, amen. Have a great day! Never forget, in all circumstances, God loves you and you are extremely valuable and important in God’s eyes! In His service, Jacob...

Don’t Get Worked Up About What May Or May Not Happen Tomorrow! God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the time comes! (Matthew 6:34 MSG) If we took a moment to think about the things we worried about in the past month or even the last couple of days, statistically only 8 to 10%  at most came to past. None of the worrying made the circumstances better; however, worrying can lead to high anxiety, which can trigger physical illness . The scripture teaches in 1 Peter 5:7, “Give all your worries and cares to God, because he cares about you!” (1 Peter 5:7) I encourage you to continue to stand in faith, no matter the trial or circumstance and believe God has everything under control! God’s Word To You : “Let go of your concerns! Then you will know that I am God!” (Psalm 46:10) Pray This Prayer With Me : Father, I thank you for the power and the victory you have given to me as your child. As I stand in faith, I ask that you will continue to strengthen me, be...

For those of us who have chosen a lifestyle of seeking the Kingdom of God and living righteously—we never have to worry about missing out on anything! (Matthew 6:33; Mark 10:30) When seeking the Kingdom of God, to lose is to gain! (Matthew 16:25) Meaning, what may seem like a dead end, God uses to bring to fruition something new. Some doors of life have to be shut, so new doors can be opened, however, God promises to supply all of our needs! Whether it is spiritually, physically, financially, relationally or emotionally, God will supply! I encourage you to trust God’s decisions and provisions as you seek the His Kingdom and walk in the abundance of life He has promised! (John 10:10) God’s Word To You: “I know what I’m doing. I have it all planned out—plans to take care of you, not abandon you, plans to give you the future you hope for! (Jeremiah 29:11) Pray This Prayer With Me: LORD, as I make your kingdom and your righteousness my priority, I thank you for your continual blessings...

Because Of The Lord's Faithful Love We Do Not Perish, For His Mercies Never End ! (Lamentations 3:22 HCSB) In the midst of difficulty and uncertainty, we must never forget—God’s hand is there to guide us; His strength is there to support us and show us we’re never out of His reach! Jesus encourages us in John 16:33, “In this world you will have many trials and sorrows, but remain encouraged—I have overcome the world!" (John 16:33) I encourage you when all else fails, to continue trust God’s plans are to prosper you and give you a future filled with hope! (Jeremiah 29:11) God’s Word To You : “When you’re in over your head, I’ll be there with you. When you’re in rough waters, you will not go down. When you’re between a rock and a hard place, it won’t be a dead end—because I am God, The Holy one of Israel, your Savior! (Isaiah 43:2 MSG) Pray This Prayer With Me: Father, let your kingdom come and let your will be done on earth as it is done in heaven. May my eyes remain focu...

Everyone Who Is Born From God Has Won The Victory Over The World ! (1 John 5:4) Everyone who confesses openly his faith in Jesus Christ the Son of God, who came to this world in flesh and blood, comes from God and belongs to God. Everyone who refuses to confess faith in Jesus has nothing in common with God. This is the spirit of antichrist. If you’re a born again believer, you come from God and belong to God. You have already won a big victory, because the spirit in you is far stronger than anything in the world! (1 John 4:2-6) I encourage you today to walk in the victory and freedom in which Christ has made us free! (Galatians 5:1) God’s Word To You : "I've told you this so that my peace will be with you. In this world you'll have trouble, but cheer up! I have overcome the world!” (John 16:33) Pray This Prayer With Me : Father, I thank you for the power and the victory you have given to me as your child! My desire is to walk in your power, so I may please you all the ...

Those Who Control Their Tongue Will Have A Long Life; Opening Your Mouth Can Ruin Everything ! (Proverbs 13:3 NLT) “Watch Your Mouth” is one of the few pearls of wisdom my parents taught me at an early age. They were simply saying, “Be mindful of what you say, before you say it, so your words won’t get you into trouble.” That same idea is true with faith. If you want to know how mature your faith is, pay attention to what’s coming out of your mouth. I encourage you to make the choice today to believe God is able to do exceedingly and abundantly more than all you ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within you! (Ephesians 3:20) God’s Word To You : "The Spirit gives life; the flesh counts for nothing. The words I have spoken to you—they are full of the Spirit and life!” (John 6:63 NIV) Pray This Prayer With Me : Father, I invite you into my thoughts, ideas and feelings, so I can have a renewed mind—the mind of Christ. (Philippians 2:5) May the words of my mouth...

God Is Able To Do Above & Beyond Anything We Can Ever Ask, Think Or Imagine ! (Ephesians 3:20) When tragedy occurs, it’s easy to doubt God can heal the pain, recover what’s lost and restore all that’s broken. We may wonder how can God truly fit the broken pieces of suffering into a hopeful future and work it out for good? (Romans 8:28) The answer is nothing is too hard for God! I encourage you to make the choice today to step into the realm of the “above & beyond” what God can do, according to the power that works within you! (Ephesians 3:20) God’s Word To You : “Nothing is too hard for me, if you ask me for anything in my name, I will do it!” (Jeremiah 32:27, John 14:14) Pray This Prayer With Me : Lord of exceeding abundance, I give you glory and I’m thankful you’re able to do all things well. Father as I seek you daily, build my faith, release your power and shape me and mold me into what you desire… I humbly pray, in Jesus' name, amen… Have a great day! Never forget,...
