SUCCESS PLANNED!

10-10-2013. . . .SUCCESS PLANNED!

"Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counsellors there is safety." (Prov 11:14KJV) Good advise and wise counsel are essential prerequisites for any successful endeavor.  Why travel an unsuccessful road others have already explored?   Failure avoided is success planned!  

PRAYER: Lord, thank you for providing us with good people who instruct us in the ways of success!  Help us to be humble enough to ask and receive from them!  Amen.

Josh 1:6-7. . . .

 Be strong and very courageous. Be careful to obey all the law my servant Moses gave you; do not turn from it to the right or to the left, that you may be successful wherever you go. NIV

PERPETUAL LIGHTS!

10-9-2013. . . .PERPETUAL LIGHTS!

"And those who are wise-the people of God-shall shine as brightly as the sun's brilliance, and those who turn many to righteousness will glitter like stars forever." (Dan 12:3 TLB)  He that wins souls is wise!  A bright shinning light in the world they are now, and an everlasting light in the kingdom to come!  A perpetual light never goes dim.

PRAYER: Lord, thank you for making us lights that shine brightly in today's world leading men and women out of darkness.  Thank you also for the privilege of being perpetual lights in your kingdom to come!  Amen.

Prov 4:18-22. . . .

 But the good man walks along in the ever-brightening light of God's favor; the dawn gives way to morning splendor, 19 while the evil man gropes and stumbles in the dark.  

Listen, son of mine, to what I say. Listen carefully.  Keep these thoughts ever in mind; let them penetrate deep within your heart,  for they will mean real life for you and radiant health.

WHO WOULDN'T TRUST HIM FOR THAT?

10-8-2013. . . .WHO WOULDN'T TRUST HIM?

"Blessed is every one that feareth the LORD; that walketh in his ways.  For thou shalt eat the labour of thine hands: happy shalt thou be, and it shall be well with thee." (Ps 128:1-2KJV)  Spiritually, mentally, and physically blessed all the days of our lives!  Who wouldn't want that?  Who would trust the Lord for that?

PRAYER: Lord, we reverence and trust you!  Thank you for blessing us spiritually, mentally and physically.  Amen!

Ps 1:3. . . . And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. KJV

COMPLETE CONFIDENCE!

10-4-2013. . . .COMPLETE CONFIDENCE! 

"But Abraham never doubted. He believed God, for his faith and trust grew ever stronger, and he praised God for this blessing even before it happened.  He was completely sure that God was well able to do anything he promised." (Rom 4:20-22 TLB)   Like Abraham, we can praise God in advance for every promise though not yet fulfilled!  With complete confidence, we know God is well able and He will perform what He promised!

PRAYER: Lord, we are completely confident in your ability to perform what you have promise.  Thank you in advance for the coming manifestation.  Amen!

Heb 10:35-38. . . .Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.  For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise.  For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.  Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.  KJV

GOD'S HAND

10-3-13. . . .GOD'S HAND!

"This Ezra went up from Babylon; and he was a ready scribe in the law of Moses, which the LORD God of Israel had given: and the king granted him all his request, according to the hand of the LORD his God upon him." (Ezra 7:6 KJV)  God's hand upon us is God's favor upon us!  Expect doors to be opened - ways to be made - and request granted by those in charge.  God's hand is upon us for good!

PRAYER: Lord, let your hand forever be upon us for good. Amen!

Ezra 7:6. . . .As a Jewish religious leader, Ezra was well versed in Jehovah's laws, which Moses had given to the people of Israel. He asked to be allowed to return to Jerusalem, and the king granted his request; for the Lord his God was blessing him. TLB

FLOW WITH HIM!

10-2-2013. . . .FLOW WITH HIM!

"Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you." (1 Peter 5:6-7 KJV)  Promotion will come when we submit to God's way,  God's plan, and God's timing!  Impatience only hinders the process!  Don't fight against Him, flow with Him!

PRAYER: Lord, thank you for having everything under control.  Help us stay submitted to your way, plan, and timing!  Amen.

Ps 75:5-8. . . . For promotion and power come from nowhere on earth, but only from God. He promotes one and deposes another. TLB

THINK FIRST!

10-1-2013. . . .THINK FIRST!

"Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer." (Ps 19:14 KJV)  We would do well to ask ourselves this question before we speak: "Is what I'm about to say going to be pleasing to the Lord?"  If the answer is no, then its probably better for us not to say it!  We should always think first, then speak!

Prayer:Lord, help us always speak words that are pleasing to you and helpful to others.  Amen!

Ps 19:14. . . . May my spoken words and unspoken thoughts be pleasing even to you, O Lord my Rock and my Redeemer.  TLB
