A Time for Everything.
There is a time for everything,
And a season for every activity under the heavens:
A time to be born and a time to die,
A time to plant and a time to uproot,
A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to tear down and a time to build,
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to mourn and a time to dance,
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
A time to search and a time to give up,
A time to keep and a time to throw away,
A time to tear and a time to mend,
A time to be silent and a time to speak,
A time to love and a time to hate,
A time for war and a time for peace.
What do workers gain from their toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him. Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before; and God will call the past to account. And I saw something else under the sun: In the place of judgment—wickedness was there, in the place of justice—wickedness was there. I said to myself, “God will bring into judgment both the righteous and the wicked for there will be a time for every activity, a time to judge every deed.” I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?” So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work, because that is their lot. For who can bring them to see what will happen after them?
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. Thank you for this new day. Make today my “Make it count day”. “Make me aware of your presence each moment and keep me focused on you”. You are the beginning where there is no end. I put you first in my life, and I will focus on others as you continue to teach me how. I give you all the glory and honor for it is only through your power that I will be an intentional follower of you. I praise you Jesus. Amen—-Isaiah 6:3 ——-And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. Thank You for life. Abba Father, I expect great things of You; please help me to attempt and accomplish great things for you. I praise and give you all the honor and glory Jesus. Amen.
And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel’s, the same shall save it.
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, thank you for this new day. Thank you for life. Thank you for the joy and peace you have given me. Praise, honor and give you all the glory Jesus. Amen.
In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul. All the kings of the earth shall praise thee, O LORD, when they hear the words of thy mouth. Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day, but my heart is heavy for those suffering. Father God, I pray for others, especially the disabled and elderly, an all those who have no family or a home to go to. Father God, Heal what’s broken in the Health Insurance Company’s Industry. Open the eyes of their hearts that they may see that they’re not fixing the poor in this country! They are part of the problem! It starts with the Government opening the eyes of their hearts. I pray for all those who cannot find doctors to take their health insurance that You will guide them to the right people to assist them. Thank you for opening the eyes of my heart, I hate seeing people suffer unnecessarily when there is a solution to this problem. I pray for a hedge of protection over all those who are suffering In Your Precious name I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen
And it fell on a day, that Elisha passed to Shunem, where was a great woman; and she constrained him to eat bread. And so it was, that as oft as he passed by, he turned in thither to eat bread. And she said unto her husband, Behold now, I perceive that this is an holy man of God, which passeth by us continually. Let us make a little chamber, I pray thee, on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a stool, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither. And it fell on a day, that he came thither, and he turned into the chamber, and lay there. 2 Kings 4:8-11
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new beautiful day. In Your Name this day is going to be a wonderful one as always. Thank you for another great nights rest to clear the clutter from my mind and for that peace, Father God, we give thanks. I pray for others who have called upon you for their needs to be answered. What we denied ourselves You have restored, and only that is what we really want. I thank you, praise and give You all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 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. Psalm 1:2-3
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to breathe and live for You. Father God, I seek the peace that You gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here now, for my creation was apart from time, and still remains beyond all change. The peace in which Your child was born into Your Mind is shining there unchanged. Thank You Lord Jesus that You gave us that same vision as gifts that cannot be taken from us. I am as You created me. I need but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your Will in Your Name that gave it to Your Child. I Thank You, praise and give You all the honor and glory Lord Jesus, Amen!
As for God, his way is perfect: the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all those that trust in him. For who is God save the LORD? or who is a rock save our God? It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect. He maketh my feet like hinds’ feet, and setteth me upon my high places. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms. Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy right hand hath holden me up, and thy gentleness hath made me great. Psalm 18:30-35
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love You and thank you for this life You have given me. Sometimes it seems like there is not enough time in the day, but Your timing is always perfect. Thank you for the well deserved rest. Father God, go with my correspondence. May it bring blessings to my friends and family. May I keep those who are far from me in my thoughts and prayers till we meet again. Guard and keep a hedge of protection around all of us. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
The Lord Jesus Christ be with thy spirit. Grace be with you. Amen. 2 Timothy 4:22
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to breathe. Father God, I pray for everyone everywhere! You know their needs, I give them in Your Precious Name Lord Jesus. Holy Spirit remember what I really am alone remember what I really want. You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in just the form You choose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not know, and let my voice be still, remembering. But let me not forget Your love and care, keeping Your promise to Your child in awareness always. Let me not forget myself is nothing, but my Self is all. I thank you, praise and give You all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now. And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body. For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it. Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren. Romans 8: 21-29
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and I will accept the way You choose for me to come to you today, Father God. For in that will I succeed, because it is Your Will. And I would recognize that what You will is what I will as well, and only that. And so, I choose to Love Jesus. Thank you, for showing up with words of hope and identity every day. I want to bless others with my presence and by speaking simple words of encouragement to them. I thank you that Your only a breath away. I praise and give you all the honor and glory in Your Name Lord Jesus Amen.
And the angel of the LORD appeared unto him, and said unto him, The LORD is with thee, thou mighty man of velour. And Gideon said unto him, oh my Lord, if the LORD be with us, why then is all this befallen us? and where be all his miracles which our fathers told us of, saying, Did not the LORD bring us up from Egypt? but now the LORD hath forsaken us, and delivered us into the hands of the Midianites. And the LORD looked upon him, and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of the Midianites: have not I sent thee? And he said unto him, Oh my Lord, wherewith shall I save Israel? behold, my family is poor in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s house. And the LORD said unto him, Surely I will be with thee, and thou shalt smite the Midianites as one man. Judges 6:12-16
A purpose within God’s church is an incredibly personal journey. Each individual’s role and calling can be unique and deeply fulfilling.
Therefore if you have any encouragement from being united with Christ, if any comfort from his love, if any common sharing in the Spirit, if any tenderness and compassion, then make my joy complete by being like-minded, having the same love, being one in spirit and of one mind.
