STARTING 10-1-16 WE WILL BEGIN PRAYER 31. WE WANT TO SPEND 31 DAYS IN OCTOBER PRAYING FOR OUR NATION, OUR NATIONAL LEADERS, STATE LEADERS, OUR FIRST RESPONDERS, OUR MILITARY AND CITIZENS OF THIS GREAT COUNTRY.
TODAY LET'S SEEK THE HOLY SPIRIT TO GUIDE US. PRAY FOR GOD'S KNOWLEDGE, HIS WISDOM, AND HIS DISCERNMENT. PSALM 23 SAYS THE LORD IS OUR SHEPHERD. HE LEADS ME BESIDE THE STILL WATERS AND HE RESTORES OUR SOULS. TODAY LET'S BEGIN A SOUL RESTORATION AS WE BEGIN OUR READINESS TO PRAY. 20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days. WHEN YOU DO FAST, DON'T APPEAR SAD. LOOK GREAT, ACT GREAT, BECAUSE JESUS IS IN YOU. HE HAS SENT HIS HOLY SPIRIT TO DWELL IN YOU FOR ENCOURAGING YOU. ANOINT YOURSELF WITH OIL AND HAVE A COUNTENANCE THAT SAYS WITH CONFIDENCE. JESUS LOVES ME. JESUS WILL CARE FOR ME. JESUS WILL TAKE CARE OF ME. TODAY IS A GREAT DAY WITH JESUS MY LORD. 18 And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees used to fast: and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? 19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. BE TOTALLY ENCOURAGED TODAY. CHRIST SAID HE WOULD NEVER LEAVE US BUT WOULD BE WITH US TILL THE END OF THE EARTH. HE SAID HE WAS IN US AND US IN HIM. DON'T LET OTHERS AND OUTSIDE INFLUENCES CRITICIZE YOU FOR NOT FOLLOWING THEIR LEGALISM. FOLLOW CHRIST. LET HIM BE YOUR GUIDE AND YOUR ROCK. NEVER BE MOURNFUL, SAD OR PESSIMISTIC. JESUS SAID THAT HE WOULD BE RIGHT THERE WITH US THROUGH EVERY TRIAL AND TEMPTATION. BE FILLED WITH THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST TODAY. KEEP THE BRIDEGROOM WITH YOU ALWAYS. MARK 2:17 When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. EVEN THE LEADERS OF THAT DAY CRITICIZED JESUS FOR EATING WITH SINNERS. BUT JESUS MADE IT ABUNDANTLY CLEAR THAT HE CAME TO HEAL THE SICK AND BRING THE SINNERS TO REPENTANCE. TODAY, KEEP YOU GOAL AS GOD HAS PLACED IT. REPENT AND HELP THE SINNERS TO REALIZE THAT JESUS BROUGHT HIS SALVATION FOR THEIR REPENTANCE AND TO HEAL THE SICK. LET'S STAY HUMBLE KNOWING THAT JESUS LOVES US MORE THAN WE AN IMAGINE. HE DID NOT COME FOR THE PROUD HEARTED BUT FOR THOSE WHO WOULD REPENT AND LET HIM HEAL THEM AND SAVE THEM LET'S TRULY EXPERIENCE HIS GREAT GRACE OF SALVATION TODAY. MARK 2: 16 And when the scribes and Pharisees saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his disciples, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
REALIZE THAT THOSE AROUND US, THE WORLD AND EVEN PRETENTIOUS RELIGIOUS LEADERS WILL SEEK TO DESTROY YOU. JESUS SET THE EXAMPLE THAT WE ARE TO EAT WITH SINNERS AND THOSE THAT ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE BEST CHRISTIAN EXAMPLES, TO SHARE HIS GOSPEL. THE WORLD SAW JESUS EATING WITH THE SINNERS. THE QUESTION WAS HOW DOES HE DARE TO DO THAT. WE SHOULD HUMBLE OURSELVES AND REPENT AND PRAY TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER AND HE WILL RESTORE US AND LIFT US UP AND HE WILL BUILD UP OUR LIVES, OUR FAMILIES, OUR NATION. BEGINNING IN OCTOBER WE WILL BE COMMITTING TO SPECIAL PRAYER FOR OUR ENTIRE NATION. 31 DAYS OF PRAYER. JOIN IN AND LET'S SPREAD THE GOSPEL TO THE SINNERS AROUND US. JESUS LOVES US AND OUR FRIENDS, AND FAMILIES AND OUR NEIGHBORS.. MARK 2:15 And it came to pass, that, as Jesus sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Jesus and his disciples: for there were many, and they followed him. TODAY IS A GREAT DAY FOR JESUS TO SIT WITH US INDIVIDUALLY AND SHARE A MEAL. LET HIM SHARE THE BREAD OF LIFE, THE JOY OF SALVATION, THE ETERNAL LIVING WATER FROM THE WELL OF CHRIST, AND THE MEAT OF THE WORD OF LIFE WITH US TODAY. ALL OF THE THINGS THAT KEEP US SO BUSY WILL OCCUPY OUR TIME BUT WILL NOT CAUSE OR ALLOW OUR SPIRITUAL BODIES TO GROW AND BE HEALTHY. CHRIST SENT HIS SPIRIT THE HOLY SPIRIT TO STRENGTHEN US. SIT WITH HIM AND ENJOY THAT SPIRITUAL MEAL TODAY. WE REALLY NEED THE SPIRITUAL FOOD AND DRINK TO GROW WITH. MARK 2:13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.
14 And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the receipt of custom, and said unto him, Follow me. And he arose and followed him. AFTER WE HAVE BEEN TAUGHT BY JESUS, WE ARE READY TO SERVE. AS HE PASSES BY AND SEES US LISTEN TO HIS VOICE AS HE CALLS, SIMPLY OBEY. IF HE SAYS FOLLOW ME, THEN GET UP AND FOLLOW HIM. HE SEES US IN OUR EVERY SITUATION. IN THIS SCRIPTURE HE SAW LEVI, THE TAX COLLECTOR. THIS JOB WAS NOT OF GREAT REPUTATION. IT WAS NOT A POSITION OF HONOR TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. JESUS CALLS US FROM EVERY TYPE OF JOB. LET'S BE AWARE AND FULL OF THE HOLY SPIRT SO THAT WHEN HE CALLS WE GET UP AND FOLLOW HIM. MARK 2:13 And he went forth again by the sea side; and all the multitude resorted unto him, and he taught them.
AFTER seeing the miracle of the paralytic man healed and forgiven, the multitude sought Jesus and he taught them. Today is a great time for you to spend time just letting Jesus teach you. Spend time in prayer and meditation. Jesus is our Peace. He is our comfort. Let this be a time to strengthen your faith and allow Jesus to fill your day and you life with His love JUST LET HIM TEACH US TODAY. Mark 2New King James Version (NKJV)Jesus Forgives and Heals a Paralytic210 But that you may know that the Son of Man has power on earth to forgive sins”—He said to the paralytic, 11 “I say to you, arise, take up your bed, and go to your house.” 12 Immediately he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all, so that all were amazed and glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this!”
TODAY, LET JESUS SAY TO YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF EVERY PROBLEM, DIFFICULTY, OR WORRY THAT YOU HAVE, ARISE, TAKE UP YOUR BED AND GO TO YOUR HOUSE. BY FAITH, DETERMINED THROUGH YOUR TRUST IN HIM. HE SAYS I HAVE ALL POWER TO FORGIVE SINS AND TO HEAL BE THOROUGHLY IMMERSED IN CHRIST TODAY. |
