A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Inner Peace"

Good Morning Everyone,

Philippians 4: 6: Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known unto God.
Praying eliminates worry. Paul learned how to be content in situations because he knew they were only temporary. If we trust in God He will bring all of His promises to past. In whom or what have you placed your trust?... Turn your worries into prayers. Make a list of your immediate needs and find scriptures and apply them to those needs. Now trust God, Praise Him, and Watch Him for each of them. God Bless.

Grant to us, O Lord, the royalty of inner Peace and the serenity which comes from living close to You. Renew in us daily the sense of joy that spills over and is shared with all whom we meet. Fill every corner of our lives with light and grace, so that, bearing with us the infection of a good courage, we may be diffusers of life, and may meet the ills we are bound to confront with gallant and high-hearted Joy and Peace, giving thanks to You always for the blessings You pour into us. In Jesus Name we give You Praise. Amen.... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Jehovah-Jireh-The Lord Will See & Provide!"


Good Morning Everyone,

Psalms 17: 8: Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings.

God sees and knows all things. Nothing you do is hidden from Him. God will bring all of His children to spiritual maturity. Do not grumble and complain when in distress or trouble. Cry out to God who sees. Trust that He will Hear and Answer. Consciously commit all your plans to the Lord daily. Do not presume His help if it is uninvited.Selah. 
 
This is part of spiritual maturity. He will not skip any of the steps in the process and will make sure we complete it. Take time and rest in His care. Rest is God's nurturing care. Know that He has committed Himself to Care for you, Guide you, and to Bring you to maturity. God Bless.

Our Father in heaven, we thank You for health and strength, for life and opportunity for service. Receive our gratitude for all your Loving-Kindness to us. O Lord, cleanse us from our sin, and all secret faults and evil desires.
 
Father renew in us day by day a right spirit, pure motives and we will give You all the Glory and Honor for giving us this Life You have begun in us. Our Sovereign and loving God who sees All, how Glorious is Your name in all the world! Sanctify us this and every day by Your Word we pray in Jesus name Amen.... Amen..

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Against All Odds!"

Good Morning Everyone, (TGIF yEAH hAPPY tIME! ! !)
 
Romans 4: 18: Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.
 
Hope fills our days with happy anticipations, high and noble aspirations; and imparts strength and courage for discharging responsibilities. Hope makes the unbearable bearable; and brightens the mind.
 
Hope quickens the hearts and sets the soul aflame. It brings serenity, cheerfulness and good humor.
 
Hope helps bear those ills we have and lightens our burdens. Hope clears the mist of hazy doubts and allows us to see clearly the illuminating light beyond; and it is one of the most promptings of mind and heart.
 
 What can be said? ?... Fight On! Do not be faint of Heart! Expect the Best. If your expectations falls short, accept it as for the best - as part of His Plan, His Divine Plan... Selah... 
 
Where is the Hope of Your Faith???.. The seed has been planted, don't abort it, carry it, nurture it, then bring it forth. Have a Great Week End ! God Bless.
Lord, You are a Covenant keeping God and we Thank You for Believing in us. Father, continue to manifest within us Your Son Jesus Christ. It is through Him that we have received this Hope that He will return for His Righteous seeds.
 
O Lord, Misery is so wide spread, Pain universal; evil so strong, but Your Word has always revived us and given us Life. At times we feel helpless (Yet Not Hopeless!).
 
Father, with You we are Not Powerless in the face of these Great forces. Lord, Our Hope is in You... So we Thank You this morning for Your Grace, Mercy, and Insight, that each of us may start with (You) The Word Daily!.... 
 
We cannot fully comprehend Your Ways without You - teach us Holy Spirit because we are assured of Your Love. We commit ourselves to live today so that others will catch enough of this vision in us that they can stay engaged in the fierce fight against all that dehumanizes them and be ready to act against demonic powers, and may they never forget to identify with the outcast. In Your Strength we pray and give You Praise in Jesus Name Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Growing In Him!"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
Hebrews 5: 12: For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
Spiritual growth is attained by the food that is digested. What are you eating? What does your food consist of? Selah..... Is your spirit yearning for more wholesome food? Sometimes we need to check our growth chart. The popular idea of education seems to be, the art of allowing others to do as much for us as we have the capacity of receiving.
 
True Education is self-preparation. It is not a question of pouring in but in drawing out. Not so much the effect of something on you, as your effect on something. It must find something within you, or it brings nothing out of you. It converts your possibilities into practical powers.  Seek first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. God Bless.
Heavenly Father, help us to always have a teachable spirit and to understand Your will. Lord, give us Revelation by the power of Your Spirit that we may grow in the spiritual person that You have called us to be. Lord, before we go about our duties, we take a moment to pause and give thanks for Your Love. Deliver us from all disturbing fears and from worries of our crowded day. Father, we desire Your Peace and Your Love in our hearts. Prepare our hearts to show forth Your Love in the way we speak, act, and the decisions that we make today. In Jesus Name Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Gain Self-Esteem By Dying To Ourselves"

Good Evening Everyone,
 
John 12: 25: He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
Before we can begin to make significant progress in our spiritual growth and achieve a mature and satisfying Self-Esteem, the Bible tells us we have to learn to die to ourselves. Jesus said: If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.  And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.
 
We need to be willing to put Jesus ahead of every other relationship. For our own happiness, we need to give up all other trusts and sources of life. Just as a seed must die to produce a plant, so we must bury our confidence in all other hopes before we can discover the ultimate Blessedness of finding our life and dignity and Self-Acceptance through a Complete reliance on God.
 
According to the Word of God Life is designed to be lived with: Purpose, Peace, and Power!   Until a person comes to Know the power they Possess, then Life will continue to be miserable. Selah. Do You feel Bad About Yourself? Where did it come from? Let's Be Real... God Bless.
Almighty and Merciful God, who are the strength of the weak, the refreshment of the weary. We pray for those of Your Children who have a low self-esteem and uncertain of how to pray for themselves. Father, we pray they will present their bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto You, and not let their bodies dominate but bring them into a place of subjection to their spirit man.. According to Your Word, reveal Yourself to them mightly.
 
Let them know that they were bought for a price, purchased with a preciousness and paid for. May they die to themselves; thereby it will bring honor and glory to Your name. May they shrink from whatever might offed You or discredit the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. May they become bright lights in this dark world holding it out as an offering to all others - "This Word of Life." Thank You Father, in Jesus name we pray Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Nothing Is Barren To God!"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
I Samuel 1: 10: And she was in bitterness of soul, and prayed unto the LORD, and wept sore.
Hannah had a good reason to feel discouraged and bitter. She had several strikes against her from the start. Consider this, that nothing is barren to God. Hannah had hope and she realized prayer opens the way for God to work.
 
We need to Learn to prophesy to ourselves. Today, make a vow to God and keep it in remembrance. Prayer really does change things. Are you praying in doubt? ? ? How's your attitude as you wait? Today, at your work station, put every barren problem into the Lord's hands. Ask him to help you as He prepares you to "Receive His Blessings." God Bless.
O Lord, You have blessed us with righteousness and surrounded us as with a shield. Lord, You are mindful of us and You bless those small and great who fear your name. Father, We lift in our morning prayer the needs of all in whose hearts there is little room for joy because sorrow or illness has come close to them.
 
Father, remove the bitterness, or anything that is not like you. Father, most of us, have experienced this morning a bright sunny day, and we reflected this image as we greeted one another, and cheerily began our day’s work. Help us to remember, Loving Lord, that some of our Colleagues and many hospital patients and families began this day sorrowing.
 
Slow us down to the pace of these whose feet are dragging, whose souls are wounded by sorrow, and who see a beautiful sunrise veiled by tears of suffering. May brightness come to them when they are ready, and by Your grace we give you all the praise.
In Jesus Name Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "The Power Of Commitment"

Good Morning Everyone,(Have A Great Week End! ! !)
 
2Tim. 2:2. And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.

If the work that God has assigned each of us collectively as well as individually is to get done, the only way it can be accomplished is by commitment. * "Never under estimate the Power Of Commitment." One of the things that is so noticeable about people in general and especially those who are members of the body of Christ, is that many find it so difficult to commit themselves to anything.
 
One of the reasons why many find it so difficult to commit is, commitment is so demanding. It involves (1). Sacrifice-must be made. (2) Discipline- must be kept (3) Dedication- Must be practiced (4) Confidence-must be displayed. (5) Endurance-must remain. Selah...
 
Ministry is Service and a "Minister of the Gospel is primarily a Servant of God's Word, boldly and courageously sharing its message. They treasure the Word of God and defend it tirelessly,being careful to communicate its truth with absolute accuracy. The Minister of God's Word Knows Patience, Endurance, and Hard Work are necessary for success. They Know They Must Train Others To Do The Same... While making sure that none of it is ever distorted, diluted, or deleted. Today, we can still have a Positive Impact in Our Given Environment, "If we stay Commited. God Bless.
Holy One, God Of Mercy and Grace, we worship You. We stand in Awe of You and You Love. Our minds cannot contain All of You, nor can words express Your Wonder. Father, show us Your Glory as You showed Moses and Paul. Lord, a broken and repentant heart You will not despise. We repent and completely surrender all that is not like You.
 
Father, break down any barriers in our heart and replace it with Your Love. Holy One, help us in these few moments of prayer to create around us a Holy place in which we can take refuge from the stresses which buffet us. Clear our minds of those pressures that intimidate us so that we can draw on Your Love and strength. .Lord, this day, send us out, able to embody Your Love as we move among our collegues and minister with singleness of mind and total commitment. In Jesus Name we give You Praise. Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Hang On To God's Word!"

Good Morning Everyone, Thursday Already??? Whew!
 
All of us are facing many problems right now, but guess where our problems are located??...The problems you are facing are in your mind and on your lips.
 
We must Remember, The Word is still working even when we feel that it is not! It is the Word that does the Work, and not the one who is holding on to it. The Battleground is your lips and your mind! Hit the devil with the Word and cast your cares about your situation over on God and you will win every time!!
 
This is not easy! ! The Word will work for you just like it worked for Jesus. Isaiah 55: 11 says, "So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it."
 
Make a commitment to turn away from idle words and foolish talking that are contrary to your true desires towards yourself and others. What your words say, your tongue defiles and sets on Fire the course of Nature -
 The Fire Of Hell..... Tact is a faculty of discernment, and of judging quickly and wisely what to say and do in any given circumstance. Wisdom is Knowing how to turn all incidents and accidents to your Advantage God's way......Selah. Be Blessed.
Holy one, we cannot read the papers or watch the news without feeling a deep sense of tragedy at the number of people who have lost their jobs, their homes, or lost their hope. 
 
Father, we thank you for a place to labor and we know You are the one who Bless us. Thank you for Wisdom and Revelation and Quickening us to Your Word in all that we do. Our lives are in pleasant places. O Lord, help us to Count our Blessings and to Work for a society in which such tragedies do happen.
In Jesus Name we give You Praise and Thanksgiving. Amen.... Amen...
"Wisdom Help Us Side-Step The Unfavorable"
Enjoy Your Day- Blessings On You!

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - Love Is "A Consuming Fire"


Good Morning Everyone,

I John 4: 7-8 -v7: Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8: He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

Love builds up and hatred tears down. Love is the consuming fire that reduces to ashes the superstructures built by hate; Selah.. It Destroys hates' growth in the human soul. It breeds liberality and forgiveness.
 
"Bless Be The Tie That Binds Our Hearts In Christian Love..Love's Power!" Consider This: Jesus said, "Except you be converted and become as little children, we shall not enter the Kingdom of heaven." Let us start Loving as little children.

If you are easily offended, Check your Armor You just may be missing a piece or two. Be Blessed.

O Lord, Your Majesty, Let Your Spirit Of Love become so radiant in us that we may shine abroad. Teach us Lord, to see every concern in our lives in the light of our Knowledge of Your Love. May we check in ourselves; and in others every temper which makes for self-serving conflicts, or ungenerous judgments.
 
Father, remove all promptings for unseemly self-assertion. May we be ready to acknowledge the needs and rights of others with Patience. Holy Spirit help us to remove suspicions and misunderstandings that lies within, knowing that You call every one of us Your little children. Help us to Honor that in each other.

In The Mighty Name of Jesus we pray and give You Glory And Honor. Amen... Amen.

Happy Valentine’s Day Or Love Day

Love defined is 1) a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.

2) a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.


3) a sexual passion or desire. 

4) a person toward whom love is felt; beloved person; sweetheart.

Most are likely to agreed mainly and in part with the above descriptions of love and some may liken the definitions to those found in God’s holy word the bible in which also divides love into four distinctive categories or types.

There is a Greek word, Phileo which is brotherly love, the type of love that is expressed as brotherly love. A love based on common interests, goals, or personality traits. This is the most common of love.

Then there is Astorgos which come from the Greek word storge, which refers the kind of love that occurs naturally between family members such as a mother and child or brothers and sisters growing up and playing together.

Then there is the Greek word Eros, the self gratifying love which is often associated with Valentine’s Day of Lover’s Day. This is the type of love that is normally the focus of one another, and is very affectionate seeking pleasure.

Lastly there is the greatest love of all loves which is the Greek word for supernatural love Agape; This is the love that GOD has for us all, a love that is unlike no other a love that we are not like to achieve but should strive for. A love that is even greater of that of a mother and child. A love that truly does not find fault, or blame. A love that is slow to anger. This type of love is best described in 1 Corinthians 13.

Wishing You Happy Valentines Day And A Happier LOVE DAY!



1 Corinthians 13

1 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.

2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.

5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part,

10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears.

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.

12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

 

 

 

 

 

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "God's Word Gives Joy"

Good Morning Everyone! (Happy Valentine Day ! ! ! )
 
Psalm 119:169-176.Printed: 169: Let my cry come near before thee, O LORD: give me understanding according to thy word.
170: Let my supplication come before thee: deliver me according to thy word.
171: My lips shall utter praise, when thou hast taught me thy statutes.
172: My tongue shall speak of thy word: for all thy commandments are righteousness.
173: Let thine hand help me; for I have chosen thy precepts.
Today & Everyday Should Be All About Love; and Our God is Love! If You Want Joy? Fall In Love With Love....(Your God)Selah.
 
How well do you know the God you Serve?... The best place to carry the Word of God is in one's heart and by doing so, the benefit is pure Joy! This person will live a life of pure joy because his or her life is not built upon human opinions, but rather upon divine revelations. It is through the Word God reveals to us His desires for us.
 
*The Word of God Erases the Mistakes of our Past
*The Word Establishes the Meaning of Our Present.
*The Word Explains the Merit of Our Pilgrimage.
*The Word provides us with Grace, Growth and Glory.
 
God Knows Where You Are! We may lose sight of God and go astray like dumb sheep, but the Good news is that God never loses sight of us. The closer we get to God, the more we understand just how much we need to commit our lives to His care and safe-keeping.
 
God's Word makes it crystal clear that anytime a man or woman abandons the instructions that God gives us through His divine revelation, then he or she has just abandoned their only Hope and have lost their Joy...
 
There are great benefits derived from living our lives according to the Word of God. "When the Word of God fills your Heart then the right words will fill your Mouth." Continue Being Filled with His Love... God Bless.
Almight God Our Father, we trust You through these challenging times. We trust you to nurture us and cause us to Know You in Your Ressurection Power. Father, You are our Master Gardener. Create in us a new freshness to thrive in whatever location we find ourselves.
 
Dear Lord, give us the wisdom and the patience to watch and wait for Your new creation in our lives. Father, we delight in the new things You are doing in us. Father, show us what it means to Know You as a Loving Father, that we may live as Your dearly Beloved children full of Your Joy. In Jesus Name. Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Worship In Spirit & Truth!"

Good Morning Everyone, [Happy Monday! !]
 
John 2: 23: But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. 24: God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
The woman at the well issue appeared to have been focused on the place of worship. Rather, Jesus concern was not the place, but the attitude of the worshiper. Is Your Worship genuine and True? ...Selah...
 
God is a Spirit, therefore the Holy Spirit, which is given to all Believers teaches us how to Worship God with Sincerity and in Truth. We understand the weather, but do we really know the season? Selah...God Bless.
Most wonderful Lord, put within us the heart of a true worshiper. Teach us to seek after You and not the things You can give. Help us to surrender all of ourselves to You, for You unselfishly gave all of You to us. Father, it is You who inspires every noble thought and every loving deed. When we draw near to You in Worship, keep us from wanderings of mind and coldness of heart, that with a deep longing for more truth and a warm desire for more love, we may Know You, Embrace You, and Worship You, to the Honor and Gory of Your name Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Diligence In Spiritual Things"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
2Peter 1 : 5-10 In Spiritual matters, Paul exhorts us as Christians to be diligent is necessary.
And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6: And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7: And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8: For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9: But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins. 10: Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:" Be Blessed. Have A Great Week End!
God of our life, You know that sometimes we feel that the burdens we carry chafe our shoulders and weigh us down. When the road ahead seems dreary and endless, the skies gray and threatening, when our lives have no music in them, our hearts are lonely, and our souls have lost their courage: Flood the path with light; turn our eyes towards You, to where we can be full of promise; Give us a New Song in our hearts; and bind us together with other heroes of Faith of every age and so - quicken our spirits that we may be able to encourage the souls of all who journey with us to Spread The Good News of Your Never-failing Love. In Jesus Name we give you Praise and Thanksgiving. Amen.... Amen...

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Demonstrating Oneness"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
John 17: 21: That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
God's Word places a heavy-responsibility on us for sharing the Good News about Jesus Christ to a lost world, and the best witness to this Good News is a Demonstration of Oneness an Unity from every believer. If we are not careful, we could very easily fall victim to the greatest deterrence to performing our assignment, which is "Human Thinking"! *Over estimating what we can do by ourselves.  * Under estimating what we can't do together. 
 
"Working together the church can accomplish more for the Kingdom than we could ever do working by ourselves." Jesus stresses the importance of Oneness and Unity. *The effectiveness of our ministry is in the demonstration of our Oneness. ~"It's hard to beat anything that is unified"~ "Together we stand and divided we fall" 
 
Jesus greatest desire for the Church aside from us seeking and saving the lost, aiding and assisting the needy, and giving love, mercy, and justice, was that the Church would Become one. "Take a look at the Church at your work - station (The Called Out Ones) and you might find that there is definitely a lack of Oneness and Unity."
 
Unity seem to be a universal problem that even exist within the Body Of Christ! This is what a Lack of Oneness Looks Like: Selfishness, Inability to Agree, and Lack Of Vision, Unrighteousness.... Selah. "Together, Let us Help Someone Focus On Rediscovery of our passion for the Gospel" God Bless.
Loving God, we pray and confess Your Word over the Body of Christ. We pray that they be filled with the deep and clear Knowledge of Your Will In All Spiritual Wisdom , Understanding, and Discernment in comprehensive insight into Your Ways and Purposes. 
 
We pray for A Spirit Of Unity and Ideal Harmony; and that Your Peace acts as Umpire continually in their Hearts - deciding and settling with all finality "All" questions that arise in their minds. Father, You care for us, and Your intent is that we should live life, and live it Abundantly;
 
You know how often we are perplexed with uncertainties and fears. We pray for Wisdom that we may be ready and eager for Your sake to bear our own burdens as well as the burdens of others. Your Word instructs us that as we bear one another’s burdens as we manifest and fulfill Your Love for all who feel weighed down by life. Thank You for calling us to this ministry. Strengthen us to undertake it. Lord, we are Thankful, Appreciative, Giving Praise to You Always. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Knowledge?"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
Daniel 2: 21 -v21: And he changeth the times and the seasons: he removeth kings, and setteth up kings: he giveth wisdom unto the wise, and knowledge to them that know understanding.
The Universe is God's University for man. We are here as scholars learning our lessons for eternity. There are many books to study but the man who is well versed in the Book of Scripture is an educated man. Knowledge and belief are the chief allies of man. Where knowledge ends, belief begins.
 
In the absence of knowledge, faith, hope and belief point the way, they lead on and on. "Knowledge is Power!" It is a firm foundation; it gives security of thought and action; it causes uncertainty to give way to confidence; it encourages one to go forward; it serves too, as a restraint; it is the parent of caution; it is a shield; it increases morals; it fosters and promotes the worth-whiles of life. Selah...
 
Consider this: Daniel had received his answer from God. Remember, to match your persistence in prayer with gratitude when your requests are answered. Do you always give "proper praise" to God for that answered prayer? Remind someone who is going through that God is in Control! If they believe God, it will work out for their good; if they do not--this is a grand opportunity for you to witness. God Bless.
Almighty God Our Creator, You are not our captive God, nor a "god" of our own making, nor bound by us, nor controlled by us. You are ahead of us, leading us, guiding us, and calling us; You are our Lord God, All-wise, All-Compassionate; Our Friend. To You we lift our hearts and voices to worship You, our God forever and ever.
 
Father, we thank You for Wisdom and Knowledge. Lord let us not be puffed up in the knowledge You have given us, nor boast in the understanding in which we possess, but rather that we might be an effective witness. Use us Master, as You used Daniel, for such a time as this we give You Praise In Jesus Name Amen. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Getting In The Way"

Good Morning Everyone,
 
John 14: 1-6 - Jesus said... "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life, No One Comes to the Father except through Me."
As People of the Lord we are called to follow in His Way; And though the world won't understand, they will see Him on Display. We don't need to see the way if we are following "The One Who Is "The Way" Selah.
Father, in Jesus Name we Thank You for Your Promise that, "Those who Believe in You will do the things You do." And (Believing is mandatory)...that they would do even Greater Things.... The Lord Our Helper is the Spirit of Truth.
 
We want to walk and remain in His "Way" O God, You are the help and refuge of Your children; from everlasting to everlasting, You are our God.... In our weakness, You are our strength. In our darkness, You are our Light. In our sorrow, You are our Comfort and peace.
 
We cannot number Your blessings; we cannot measure Your love. For all Your Goodness and Mercy we praise Your Holy Name. Fill us with Your Grace that we ever live as in Your Presence; Love the things You love, and serve You with the service of our daily lives. In Jesus Name we give You Praise.... Amen!... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Grace Under Fire!"

Good Monday Everyone,
 
Matthew 7: 7: Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
What do we do when Overwhelmed? Are you sometimes weary of treachery and ingratitude of people; the Cares and Disappointments of those in Your Work Space? Like David, some of us long to hide ourselves in some desert place from the fickleness of people, or find rest from the noise and clamour.
 
Even strong believers at time have been filled with some horror. But! none of us have been ever so Overwhelmed as the Holy Jesus, when it Pleased the Lord to put Him to grief, and to make His soul an offering for our sins. Selah...
 
In His agony He prayed more earnestly, and was heard and delivered. Trusting and following the Lord, we too shall be supported under fire and carried through every trial. Let us start this week shaped in His Character. God Bless.
Almighty God Our Father, We Praise You. You are the Help of our contenance. You are our refuge and strength, our high tower and stronghold in times of trouble. We are awed by Your infinite Majesty.
 
We remember that You are ever near Your children, waiting, with patience that never fails to reveal Yourself to those who will receive You..
 
Lord, We put our trust in You; for You will never forsake those who dilligently seeks You on the authority of Your Word. Father, You have thoughts and plans for our welfare and peace if our mind is stayed on You.
 
We turn our face toward You Lord in our stress. Father, the blind man cried out to You and the hemorrhaging woman pressed through the crowd to touch Your garment. We too put forth effort in prayer and press in Faith to Pursue our Miracle. We draw near to You and You give us Strength and Peace and we rise again fitted for our work for Your Glory. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Grace For Whatever Season!"

Good Morning Everyone,(TGIF!)
 
Psalms 73: 24 : He will guide me with His Counsel !
Jesus puts life into the proper perspective that sets all of us at ease by reminding every believer that we have the freedom to live today and to Wait tomorrow Knowing that God's Agenda is always what is best for our lives. Isn't it good to Know that the God who steers us into the future is the God whose trustworthiness has been proven throughout every generation? We can have confidence in God's Guidance and presence from birth to death because God has us continuously in His grip even in seasons that seem too severe. So if you and I can't be satisfied with our season then we need to learn how to be satisfied with Divine providence and have enough faith in Him to know that all things work together for good to them who love the Lord and are Called according to His purpose. We are reminded time and time again that we don't have to Know about the future just Know who holds the future and Know that it is He Who holds our hands. Enjoy Your Week-End! God Bless.
Holy One, We Realize that Growing in Wisdom means learning to discern the times by applying the principles of Your Word. We also Know that All Promotion or exaltation comes from You Father; and when we reject Your Way, the Blessings and Guidance of the Holy Spirit will be withdrawn, leaving us always in Spiritual drought.. Father, we Expect and Welcome the refining Work of the Holy Spirit indwelling in us and His continual infilling us. Thank You for giving us unseasonable blessings, Unseasonable strength, for Unseasonable tolerance, and Unseasonable understanding. we don't know all You are doing in our circumstances, but we know that in Your hands is Grace for us to deal with Whatever comes our way. Thank You Father! Thank You! Father, we refuse to worry, because worry is sin and we choose to trust in You with all our heart. We will make our decisions by Obedience and Faith rather than in our ability to hurry and fix things. Thank You Holy Spirit for releasing Your Power to accomplish any task in Jesus Name. Great is Your Faithfulness Morning by Morning New Mercies we See, All that we need Your Hands has Provided, Great is Thy Faithfulness Oh Lord Unto Us and we will give You All the Glory. In Jesus Name.. Amen. Amen..
"Living Abundantly In His Sufficient Grace!"

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Good-Will/Pleasure And/Favor!"

Good Morning Everyone, (Thursday Already???) WHEW!!!
 
Psalms 5: 11-12 .But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You; Let them ever Shout for Joy, because You defend them; Let those who also Love Your name Be Joyful in You. For You, O Lord, will bless the Righteous; With Favor You will surround him as with a shield..
When we are Righteous, we Trust in God and We Love His Name. In Him We are Joyful and We have a Refuge... We have His Security, His Blessings and His Favor. Everyday, Make Your Mark On This World with Kindness... Kindness is the controlling spring which holds back the slamming door. Kindness is the stuffing and the packing case of every day's merchandise. Selah....
 
Kindness is the drapes at the window woven into beautiful Characters and colors which shuts out the hideous sights of a world which is all too practical... Kindness is the carpet on the floor which deadens the sound of shuffling feet and adds warmth to Silence. Kindness is the green grass near the hard pebbles of the road....,
 
This Day: Cover someone with compliments, Treat them with generosity. Be Kind, because God's Got You Covered - His Shield is From Head to Toe! ! ! Be Blessed. Have A Great Day! ! !
Father, we take delight in the New things that You are doing in Our Life. It is You Who creates the fruit of our lips, and we are abundantly satisfied with the fullness of Your House and You O Lord, give us drink from the Rivers of Your Pleasures.
 
Father, In You is the fountain of Life; and in Your Light we See Light.. That is why we will say as the psalmist, "Let them shout for Joy and be glad who Favor Your Righteous cause; And let them S A Y - Continually...Let the Lord be Magnified, Who has Pleasure in the Prosperity of His Servants. And Father, Our Tongue shall Speak of Your Righteousness and of Your Praise all the day long...You Put A Song Of Praise In Us and We Will Rejoice Continually.. Father, We Are Expecting! ! !.... Glory! The Joy of The Lord is our Strength..In Jesus Name We Give You Praise.. Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Always Do Your Best!"


Good Morning Everyone,

I Timothy 2: 1: I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2: For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty.


Each of us has a Unique God given ability. Some of us might feel inferior, because Our Gift is different. God doesn't hold you accountable for what you don't have. He wants you to discover and develop the skill you do have. The Greatest Ability is Dependability. Let Us Be Thankful In Everything!


Holy One, by Whose Wisdom we were Created, by Whose Mercy we Are Redeemed, and by Whose Providence we are Governed. We thank You Father for our country and its government. We hold up in prayer before You these men and women who are in positions of authority. We pray and intercede for the President, the representatives, the senators, the judges of our land, the policemen, as well as the governors and mayors, and for all those who are in authority over us in any way.
 
We pray that the Spirit of the Lord rests upon them. We Thank You for the Many Blessings You have Showered upon us - Above our Asking or Deserving!. We thank You for the Scriptures which Shine Light upon the Path You Calls us to follow, that Reveal to us Deep Things not otherwise Known, and that Lead Us Toward the Hope and Advanced Experiences of life eternal. O Lord, We Give You Praise. We Bless Your Holy Name.

In The Mighty Name Of Jesus Be Glorified... Amen.... Amen.....



Giving Him First Place In Service

God Bless You
