‘Come and Join Me in God’s Word’ - Teach Me Your Ways

Psalm 25: 1, 4-6 NIV. In You, Lord my God, I put my trust. Show me Your ways, Lord, teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Savior, and my hope is in You all day long. Remember, Lord, Your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. 

Through the years my walk with God has grown. I have never given up when things were tough for me. I turn to God more. I knew in my heart He was the only One who could help me to come through the trials and tribulations I faced. I realised I could do nothing without Him. More importantly He was a great and awesome God who would never fail me nor would He let me down. He would always be faithful and true to me as I put my faith and trust in Him. Man/woman had let me down time and again. I thought I could trust them. How wrong I had been. I began to realised man/woman are of the world being influenced by the world around them. 

I prayed: “Show me Your ways, Lord, teach me Your paths. Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are God my Saviour, and my hope is in You all day long  Remember, Lord, Your great mercy and love, for they are from of old” (Psalm 25:2-6 NIV).

My life is so much better now. Seeing things from God’s point-of-view and not my own point-of-vies has helped me no end. My faith has been increased and more and more I have learnt to lean upon, rely upon God and depend upon God for all my needs. 

Prayer

Father, thank You for Your precious Son the Lord Jesus Christ. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit of God to live in me. Thank You for teaching and showing me how to trust and have confidence in You alone and no-one else. Thank You for leading, guiding, and teaching me Your truth. I am ever grateful and thankful for all the wonderful things You have done for me in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen

‘Come and Join Me in God’’s Word’ - Put God Fiirst

In everything you do, put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success. —Proverbs 3:6 TLB 

We come to the place with our walk with God, to always put Him first in everything we do. Firstly, we acknowledge Him as God, surrendering our lives to Him in the name of Jesus Christ, and in the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit of God. He will direct us and lead us as we commit our day to Him. Depending and relying upon the Holy Spirit of God, acknowledging that we need His help is the wise thing to do. 

We must go to our favourite place where we have dedicated to meet with God. In this place we know we will not be disturbed, having our Bibles open, ready to communicate with Him our hearts desires. We do this through prayer, reading His Word expecting God to speak to us and answer us as we pour out our heart’s to Him. When He is our top priority, other things fall into their proper place. So, we must delight ourselves in Him first and foremost. 

Prayer

Heavenly Father, we delight ourselves in You. We praise and bless You that we can rely, depend, and lean upon You to bring us through into Your perfect will. We place our love, trust, faith, in the precious and holy name of Jesus Christ, knowing His presence is always with us gives us encouragement to continue in our journey with Him; now and forever more.

‘Come and Join Me in God’s Word’ - Looking to God

Psalm 5:3 NIV Each morning I will look to you in heaven and lay my requests before you, praying earnestly. 

These words are taken from a “House of Prayer – Daily Devotional 

Daily, we must ask God to open our spiritual eyes so we can see Him and to give us spiritual ears to hear Him through the Word of God. Reading and praying to God certainly strengthens faith. Faith in a believer’s heart is given to us through the Holy Spirit of God. He is the One who gives us the confidence we need to grow in Jesus Christ. He teaches us how to quieten our hearts and minds so we are able to listen to God’s voice in the stillness and quietness of our souls. Being busy is not of Him. The word “busy” means Being Under Satan’s Yoke. Satan wants us to be busy, because this takes our eyes and focus off God and stops us from praying and praising God. This is the last thing the enemy wants us to do is praise and thank God. He hates it when we do this. The more we pray and praise God the more he runs away. We need to be yoked to Christ Jesus at all times. Putting on His mantle, characteristics, personality, and very nature is what we need to do daily. Through prayer and faith in God we should expect God to act on our behalf. As we commit our prayers to Him we must realize it has to be when He is ready to answer the prayers we have asked of Him, accepting everything is in God’s timing, and He does not get anything wrong.

Prayer

Father, I trust You to encourage and enrich me with everything I need to continue to do Your will. I praise and thank You for Your beloved Son the Lord Jesus Christ, and also for giving me the Helper the Holy Spirit of God. He keeps me on the straight path of righteousness and holiness and grants me discernment to see when I am in Your will. I cannot praise and thank You enough for everything You have done for me over the years, drawing me closer and nearer to God in Christ Jesus my precious Lord, I pray. Amen 

‘Come and Join Me in God’s Word’- Faith Heal’s You

When you put your faith and trust in Jesus Christ, no matter what you have to face during your day, you need not be afraid. God is completely in control. He knows what is ahead and the Holy Spirit of God, is there to help us as we ask Him to increase our faith to trust Him to meet our needs.

We need to ask the Holy Spirit of God for discernment, and It is crucial we do this asking Him in the precious name of Jesus Christ. 

Prayer is the key to which we can overcome any trials we face. We need to train our minds to quickly turn to God for help. You do this by prayer acknowledging God in your situations. We must constantly ask the Holy Spirit to guide and lead us and prepare us to be aware and ready for any unforeseen circumstances. We must reach out to God and boldly speak out in faith what we believe He will do.

He broke the power of death and illuminated the way to life and immortality through the Good News. 11 And God chose me to be a preacher, an apostle, and a teacher of this Good News.12 That is why I am suffering here in prison.
