Morsels

No worries…God uses closed doors to get us where he wants us to be. 

Read: Psalms 57:2 

I cry out to God Most High,

    to God who will fulfill his purpose for me.

We must keep our thoughts pure to attain perfect peace. 

Read: Isaiah 26:3 

You will keep in perfect peace

    those whose minds are steadfast,

    because they trust in you.

Here is what being one looks like. 

Read: John 10:28-30 

28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand. 29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father’s hand. 30 I and the Father are one.”

Take your time and be specific. Ask God for exactly what you want. 

Read: 1Chronicles 4:10

Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, “Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain.” And God granted his request.

Getting it right takes a daily commitment.

Read: Luke 9:23-24 

23 Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. 24 For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will save it.

God requires us to rest. 

Read: Psalm1 27:2

If God doesn’t build the house,

    the builders only build shacks.

If God doesn’t guard the city,

    the night watchman might as well nap.

It’s useless to rise early and go to bed late,

    and work your worried fingers to the bone.

Don’t you know he enjoys

    giving rest to those he loves?

What God is doing…giving you what you believe not what you’re asking for but what you actually believe when you pray. 

Read: 1 John 5:15  

And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests that we have asked of him.

When in need pray boldly, truthfully not weak praying in fear… it won’t work. You must pray in Faith to receive. 

Read: James 4:3

You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.

Chase after God and you do not have to chase your blessings. 

Read Deuteronomy 28:1-2 

“Now it shall come to pass, if you diligently obey the voice of the Lord your God, to observe carefully all His commandments which I command you today, that the Lord your God will set you high above all nations of the earth. 2 And all these blessings shall come upon you and overtake you, because you obey the voice of the Lord your God:

The battle we face daily is with the flesh & the spirit. Learn to yield to the Spirit and shut up the flesh. 

Read: Galatians 5:16-17 

16 So I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the flesh desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the flesh. They are in conflict with each other, so that you are not to do whatever you want.
