A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "B"/O Frightened By Shadows?"

Good Morning Everyone,

 

Isaiah 41: 10: Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

Life's Journey brings us through many shadows of darkness. Even though Shadows can't hurt us, sometimes we are faced with fierce-looking obstacles of illness, money problems, personal conflicts, IRS, etc.... Any one of these may strike fear into our hearts. The Scripture says, "Be not afraid in sudden fear."

 

At first, you may be bewildered and it may seem that you are at a dead end. But! then by faith we make our way to Christ Jesus(Our Savior) realizing we dare not go forward without His Assurance... Why? In God's Eyes: It is Already Finished! It is Done Already! ! ! 

 

We must put complete trust in Him, and He will help us face our tomorrow every step of the way. When anxiety or dread starts lurking around, remember Your God, He decrees, "I will strengthen you, I will help, and I will uphold you with My Righteous Right Hand. Keep Looking To Jesus and whatever your "This" is", will come to pass. Believe For Grace and release your faith for it.! Ask for it! The Believer's job is to believe it! God Bless.

Heavenly Father, we attend to Your Word, and we incline our ears to Your sayings, and we will not let them depart from our eyes, we will keep them in the midst of our heart because they are life and healing to all of our flesh. Sickness and disease has no power over us..

 

Gracious Father, we thank You for Mercy on our city. Thank You for repairing the breaches in the hedge of protection around our city... Destroy the assignment of the spirit of terrorism, destruction, poverty, perversion, greed and injustice.. 

 

Holy Spirit, let your power and presence prevail throughout our great nation. Please expose every evil plot against our city and nation. Father, stir the hearts of every Christian to represent Your Love, Forgiveness and Grace in their daily living.

 

Holy Spirit Convict those Christians who are lukewarm and give them the courage and Joy to stand for holiness and righteousness. Father, You said be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes.. For You O Lord shall be our Confidence and shall keep our foot from being taken.

 

This day O Lord, In righteousness we shall be established, and we shall be far from oppression; we shall not fear! And from terror, for it shall not come near us or our dwelling as we come in and go out.. As it is written, A thousand shall fall at our side, and ten thousand at our right hand; but it shall not come near us. O God, we give You Praise and Thanksgiving and Glory Forever and Ever.

In Jesus Name Amen... Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Follow Wisdom!"

Good Morning Everyone,

 

James 3: 17: But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.

Our tongue is more of a weapon than we have Acknowledged. If one cares to "Know" if they have Grown Spiritually, just listen to your Conversation. We should take heed to when the Holy Spirit Say, "Be Quiet." Accountability Leads To Growth. 

 

Tact is a faculty of discernment; of judging quickly and wisely what to say, or do, in any given circumstance. It is knowing how to turn all incidents and accidents to your advantage; it is Knowing how to rub the fur the right way, what to do, what not to do, what to say and how to say it; it is the art of winning in spite of reverses and obstacles. 

 

Tact is the product of the intuitive mental process which produces immediate, yet Wisest Actions. Selah...Today, at your Work Stations, Evaluate what you are saying. and ask those you work with to evaluate you as well. God Bless.

O Lord clothe us with Your Wisdom and Your Understanding. Quicken our spirit that the wrong words do not proceed from our lips. We want to always uplift and exalt in Godly Conversations and never tear down our sisters or our brothers. Father, You know each of us personally and intimately. You monitors our thoughts and feelings and is a discerner of the purposes and intents of our hearts. Father, You know exactly what we need. Father, restore what is cold and dead; and Kindle our passions to Love others least we be cold and dull. Enlighten our minds to Think before we speak and not be overwhelmed by the terrors of these times. Teach us dear Lord to always give You Praise In Jesus Name. Amen Amen

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Rebellion Of Spiritual Leaders!"

Good Morning Everyone, (TGIF ! ! ! ) Enjoy Your Week-End In Him!

 

I Samuel 15: 22-23: v.22: And Samuel said, Hath the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams.

23: For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry. Because thou hast rejected the word of the LORD, he hath also rejected thee from being king.

Religious activity in itself has no value. Saul's motives are shown to be rebellion and stubbornness, or rather, standing in opposition to God's commands... When Saul was so proud and arrogant that he disobeyed God, He sent Samuel to tell him, "Does the Lord really want sacrifices and offerings?" The answer is No! He doesn't want your sacrifices. He wants you to obey Him.

 

Rebelling against God, or disobeying Him because you are proud is just as bad as worshiping idols or asking them for advice. Selah. When you refused to do what God tells you, God will decided that you can't become king. Selah. God wants His Leaders to reign in this life as Kings... When you are rebellious, proud, and disobedient, Your Heavenly Father Sees you... What we practice provides evidence of our faith. Faith is not merely a propositional affirmation. It determines actions, produces obedience, and through overcoming will become fruitful... This week end, let us find time to pray for America's Spiritual Leaders, and if you are one, Know this: we are praying for you. God Bless.

Father, You confronted the children of Israel about their rebellion and stubbornness and being a stiff-necked people. From the day they departed from Egypt they provoked the Lord their God. Father, Just as Moses pleaded with You to have mercy on the people and not destroy them, so we are pleading with You. Father, forgive America and it's Leaders for its rebelliousness and sin. Lord, save our nation from destruction. Father, You place a high priority upon obedience. Thank You Lord, You are a "Father of Orphans" and a Champion of widows," and You make homes for the homeless" and You lead "prisoners to freedom," But the wicked and rebellious You will cast down to the ground."

 

O Father, extend Your Mercy and Grace to these Your people. Forgive and restore them to Your Favor.. In returning they shall be saved; in quietness and confidence shall be their strength... Thank You for showing them Your Grace,Mercy, and Patience in returning back to You. In Jesus Name we pray and give You Glory and Honor... Amen.... Amen..

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Taking Care Of Anxieties!"

Good Morning Everyone,

 

I Peter 5: 7: Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Philippians 4: 6: Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

 

*Some Christians pray, and then wonder why their prayers don't work. One reason may be because they are full of worry and anxiety. They want someone to pray the prayer of faith and get the victory for them, but they want to hold on to their cares too. 

 

The first thing the Lord said to do is Deal With Your Anxieties; Deal With Your Worries... The second part is "Not" going to work without taking the first step...selah.

 

Do you wake in the middle of the night and a giant problem hits you? Do you start thinking about it because you can't go back to sleep? When you do: Get down on your knees and open your Bible and read out loud to the Lord what He has said!

 

 "Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything,but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition (definite requests), with thanksgiving continue to make your wants known to God!"Phil. 4:6(Amp.) Then, tell the Lord you are not going to take it back!!! Shout it out! - Father,The devil is trying to bring it back to me, but it's Your Problem Lord!!! SoYou keep working on it because I am going back to sleep...

 

At first it might be a struggle, but you keep on putting it into the Lord's hands and He will work it out! Amen? Amen...

Stop trying to figure out the answer to your situation. Instead, trust in God's ability to work it out for you. Deal with the worries first, then Pray! This will work for you anywhere and any time. God Bless.

Holy One, we thank You for all Your mercies and lovingkindness that reach us every day; and even when our days are cloudy and cold - Lord, bring us to a place of restitution. Restore the Joy of Your Salvation when we are faint of heart and come in contack with our worst nightmares...

 

Father, give us eyes to see that the true battle is spiritual not physical. For our struggles are not flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

 

No matter how violent, help us to realize that people are not the enemy...they are prisoners of the enemy. Father, we pray that You give us Wisdom to penetrate their tombs and deliver them from their demons, and dress them in their right mind, and set them free. Help us to realize that the Real Battleground is the Human Heart. It is over this territory that the forces of good and evil draw their swords.

 

Lord God, help us to surrender our hearts, hopes, fears, dreams, desires, our ambitions, our Love and our Loyalty to You. May what we do today/ be a Victory for Your Kingdom O God...and one less battle to fight tomorrow. In Jesus Name we pray and give Thanks Amen..... Amen....

"Continue In His Love!"

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "Exhibiting Strength In Weaknesses!"

Good Morning Everyone, (Thank God!! ! - Wednesday Already??)

 

ICor. 3: 16-17: v.16: Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
17: If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are.

 

Paul called our bodies God's temple, and many forces are at work to assault God's new dwelling. Evil may easily gain a foothold through unfortified areas of our spiritual life.. selah... Places where there is bitterness, envy, strife, or division may undermine us. Each of us must be on guard against the enemy of our souls and never give any place to the devil. We must be determined this year to "grow" spiritually. Such growth will be plenty painful, because you will be undergoing stretching, molding, and refining by the Holy Spirit. Spiritual people must deal ruthlessly with any carnal thoughts in their minds.

 

Today at your workstations, take captive every thought that is hostile to God. Remember, you are in a spiritual war and you must remain disciplined. You are being shaped by the Holy Spirit so that people can come to know Jesus through what they see in you. Don't be shocked to discover your weaknesses. Learn to trust God's strength and give Him the Glory. You can do this. God Bless.

Our Father, Your Word declares that, no harvest will come until we Sow ourselves in righteousness, Reap in mercy; Break up our fallow ground: For it is time for us to seek the LORD, till He come and rain righteousness upon us. Holy Spirit keep us aware of the hardness of heart and to seek radical remedy for a fallow spiritual life.

 

Father, we believe that the Lord will honor those who seek Him with their whole heart. O God, Help Us... Thank You Lord, we are Sustained this day and everyday by Your Word and we are Secured in You through our Faith and trust in Your Word. Holy One, it is so necessary to die to sin and self - "if Christ is to reign Supreme in us." 

 

Help us to be quick to admit guilt of sin, then confess it, repent, and be restored to right standing before You. Father this day, clean our thoughts, our speech, and the way we play. Lord, may we by constant, active self - control remain pure and holy for Your Glory in Jesus Name Amen.... Amen..

"May The Spirit Of Wisdom; Revelation Rest On You!"

~O God, Make Us Beautiful Within!~

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "In Tough Times Let "Peace" Rule!"

Good Morning Everyone,

 

Col. 3:15: And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.

Peace literally means calmness of mind and heart; harmonious relationships between God or man; freedom from fear or torment; freedom from strife, quarrels or disagreements; freedom from confusion, oppressive thoughts, or emotions; The Hebrew word for Peace is (Shalom) it means Wholeness. Even in the midst of disarray and destruction, we need to cultivate the fruit of Peace by putting the Word of God in our hearts so we can speak with harmony what God says everyday. When fear or anxiety comes our way, God's Peace will rise up in our heart to overcome every circumstance. We need to be sensitive to the Spirit of God and follow this Peace within. Jesus is the Prince of Peace. Let Shalom tell us what to do. In tough times we somehow make the mistake of thinking the Lord has abandoned us. We quickly fall into the pattern of thinking God and Good Times Go Hand In Hand. When trouble periodically rolls in like a heavy fog, and we must take by faith the fact that God is very much with us, even though we may not sense His Presence. God always sees us. Nothing gets by His notice. He always cares. The question is will we continue to be Trusting as He is Faithful? Will we be Good and Godly even when times are Bad? ? ?

In The Presence Of Trouble This Does Not Mean The Absence Of God. Selah... If He Is Lord - Let Him Rule! ! God Bless.

Loving and Gracious God, through us, show forth Your Loving Kindness to those who are, or feel themselves neglected, who are little loved, or feel forgotten in the rush of their daily lives. Use us to Comfort all who mourn the loss of those dear to them; be with them in their sorrow. Give them a faith to look beyond the troubles that overwhelm them and to know that neither life nor death can separate them from Your Love. Holy Spirit help them when they feel they are falling apart. Fill their heart with Wisdom and increase their faith. Father, in tough times, You said, "You would keep them in perfect Peace whose mind is stayed on You." O Lord, in this hour,Let them Know Your Peace In Jesus Name we give you Praise Amen... . Amen.

A Word From Mrs. Juanita - "God Desires A Lifestyle Of Promise"

Good Morning Everyone,

 

Psalms 119: 105-112: Printed -105: Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. 106: I have sworn, and I will perform it, that I will keep thy righteous judgments.107: I am afflicted very much: quicken me, O LORD, according unto thy word. 108: Accept, I beseech thee, the freewill offerings of my mouth, O LORD, and teach me thy judgments. 109: My soul is continually in my hand: yet do I not forget thy law. 110: The wicked have laid a snare for me: yet I erred not from thy precepts.111: Thy testimonies have I taken as an heritage for ever: for they are the rejoicing of my heart. 112: I have inclined mine heart to perform thy statutes alway, even unto the end.

How refreshing it is to be able to have something in place that can serve to eliminate all the frustrations associated with one pursuit of purpose. The Word of God is the something that God has put in place that serves not only to reveal to every believer the promises of God, but also to reveal how God desires us to embody a lifestyle of promise as well. One of the many benefits of the Word of God is found in its' power to shed the right amount of Light on the very things we are involved in as we continue to follow the directions He has set before us. His Word lights our path one step at a time as we walk through this world that is full of darkness. It is our light by which we come to know Him, His Will and His Ways. Don't Quit! Continue to look to Him while looking into the Word. ~Be Blessed~

Holy one, Your Word is a lamp to our feet and a light to our path. We will worship toward Your Holy Temple, and praise Your name for Your loving-kindness and for Your Truth and Faithfulness; for You have exalted above all else Your Name and Your Word, and You have magnified Your Word above all Your name! O Lord, let our prayer be set forth as incense before You, the lifting up of our hands as the evening sacrifice. Father, set a guard, before our mouth; and keep watch at the door of our lips...We Love You Jesus and we praise Your Holy Name. Amen... Amen...
