GOD is spirit

John 4:24

But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to wop in spirit and truth.”






~~~Reflections~~~

It pleases God for you to worship Him.
He longs to have sincere worshipers who worship and adore him.
He longs for you to have a sincere heart of worship. 
To Worship in the Spirit.
For God is a Spirit. 

God is Spirit, and those who worship Him, are called to worship in 

with our hearts, minds, soul and all our strength are open to His Love and Grace, 
that we can worship in Spirit and Truth. 
The place and timing are not of importance to God.
 He doesn't care where you worship him.
You can be in a barn, in your closet, or in a  church. The place doesn't matter. 
The time doesn't matter. Day noon or night.
Your surroundings are good for nothing.
It is not the right place, but with the right heart that matters.
It is the true passion and desire to worship God that you worship in Spirit and Truth.
He desires you to come worship and adore Him in the Spirit and in with a true heart. 


~~~Prayer~~~
Father, we set aside all worldly thoughts, and invite you Holy Spirit in. You Father are Holy and Worthy to be worshipped.  We come before you with a heart of adoration and gratitude. Holy, Holy, Holy are you. Glory be to you LORD GOD MOST HIGH.
Amen  

could you learn from your disappointments

 Psalms 51:10

Create in me a clean heart, O God,
And renew a steadfast spirit within me. 


~~~Reflections~~
What would it take for you to pull yourself up and start all over again?

Seeking God first thing in the morning. Is a great way to start your day. Are you able to call on God, during those times of need, storms, sickness or any kind of disappointment or fear come to you?
Are seeking The Lord to carry you through without falling apart?


When life throws you a curve ball, or things don't seem to go your way. How you respond is of great importance. No matter what the circumstances you are going through in your storm, the only thing that matters how you go about handling yourself during the storm. Do you curl up in a ball, cry, hide in fear?

Hopelessness and discouragement can be overwhelming.  So How do you get out of those feelings of doom and gloom. There is a cure. Yes it is a Miracle Cure!
It comes by going to the Lord.
For Jesus is the  Only Way! John 14:6

Worship and Praise Jesus! Thank Him for everything you are going through. Acknowledge, Proclaim JESUS CHRIST HAS THE POWER AND AUTHORITY OVER THE SITUATION . Seek the Lord. through His word, through prayer and a thankful heart.

Once we understand the crucial importance that it is a spiritual factor and not by human circumstances. The enemy is always trying to discourage us. Steal our faith, like a thief in the night. John 10:10

Others will see that we know that God is in charge of our circumstances.
By adding this to our daily conversations and experiences through all discouragements, no matter how small.   We can make every discouragement or hopelessness a time for reflection and connection with the Lord. Strengthening our Faith. Going to the Lord in all circumstances. 

~~Prayer~~
GOD OUR HEAVENLY FATHER IN YOUR PRECIOUS SONS NAME JESUS CHRIST. I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE POWER AND AUTHORITY IN THIS SITUATION, FOR I BELONGTO YOU! WE THANKYOU LORD. FOR YOU ARE WORTHY OF OUR PRAISE.
 CREATE IN ME A CLEAN HEART, A RENEW A STEADFAST SPIRT IN ME. HOLY SPIRIT I WELCOME YOU TO GUIDE ME THROUGH! THANK YOU LORD.


John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.



desperation, despondency, discouragement, hopelessness, Jesus is the Way, The Truth, and The Life. 

I am chosen and appointed by the Lord

John 15:16
You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

~~~Refletions~~~
Jesus choose you!
He appointed you!
Jesus made the choice to die for you and love you. He made the choice to die on the cross for You.

So your Sins could be forgiven, so you can enter into the gates of heaven.
Without him making that first choice, you wouldn't have a choice.
Eternal life would not be an option.
It's up to you to make choice, to accept or reject Him?
.
We are not saved merely for our own benefit, but to serve Christ.
Manifesting His love and Word to the world, and to build up His church.
This is the fruit you bear and it will remain with you.
Every Christian will bear spiritual fruit. Somewhere, sometime, somehow.
Otherwise that person is not a believer.
Every born-again individual will be fruitful.
Not to be fruitful is to be faithless,
without faith, and therefore without salvation.
How can you receive from the Father anything in Jesus Name if you have no Faith?

Our Salvation Is a gift from the Lord.
All we have to do is pray this

Prayer~~~ Jesus Thank you for your Love, for making the sacrifice on the cross for my sins.I accept YOU!  You have redeemed me. Thank You!  I ask Father in Jesus Name that you would make me filled with faith, and fruitful. Help me to bring Glory to you!

Jesus is my friend

I am a friend of Christ and  Jesus is My Friend!

John 15:14
You are My friends if you do whatever I command you .

~~~ Reflections ~~~
What a wonderful and comforting thought we have that Jesus is our friend. 
For Jesus is the kind of friend we need in our lives at all times. When we look for a true friend we should look for others who resemble Jesus.
Jesus is there at all times, no matter the situation..

His peace comes in times of turmoil and fear.
He comforts us  during times of sorrow and mourning.


He is always there for me.
You don’t need to go far to reach Him.
He doesn't  need to you spend money to be with Him.
He is here with us right now.
Having a friend in Jesus is brings peace to our minds.
He comforts us and leads us in the path of peace and joy
He reassures us that He is Our Lord and Master
He will never forsake us.

Do you want to be so overflowing with the river of living water out of your heart?

Acts: 5-12-16
And through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon’s Porch. Yet none of the rest dared join them, but the people esteemed them highly. And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them. Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.

~~~Reflections~~~
You can have the same access to the same power today, that Peter and the apostles manifested throughout the multitude of people, in the book of Acts. You  also have the same strong faith that you can be healed. Are you lacking faith. Ask the Lord to strengthen it. Do you want to be so overflowing with the river of living water out of your heart, so much so, that when you walk through a crowd of people, that God's Holy Spirit fills them, heals the sick, sets those tormented by unclean spirits Free.

God does not fill your cup 1/2 way. Gods living river of life will never stops flowing.  He is the everlasting Living Water that Flows Freely. God wants to use you, to perform signs and wonders, just as Peter and the apostles did.  God holds an unlimited supply of the Living Water. His Living Water that has no bounds, no limits, no restrictions. He can unleash His power of the Holy Spirit in your life today! 

According to John 7:37-39
On the last day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying,
“If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.
He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”
But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive
for at that time the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Now that Jesus has Died and Risen to be with the Lord, The Holy Spirit is Here, NOW! Come to Jesus and Drink. Confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, and ask him to guide you, to allow the river of living water to flow through your heart. Invite him into your heart. Into your life. Welcome the Holy Spirit. Let Him who is Thirsty, Drink.

With a simple step of Faith. Receive the word of the Lord, Repent. Be filled with The Holy Spirit. You are a part of His divine plan. No one persons words, or shadow can heal, It is Only By faith in the name of Jesus Christ that you can be healed. You can be the one with the faith to receive the healing, and you can also be the one that the Lord uses to demonstrate to the multitudes to bring His signs and wonders, miracles of healing. Give God the Glory!
 
It is by Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that completely heals the sick and those tormented by impure spirits, that all are healed. God's Power is real and the access is there.  He is the author of Life, He performs the miracles, so others can see and believe.

Receive the message of Salvation, that know that it is true. That Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Savior, that he died on the cross and God raised him from the dead.  That the Holy Spirit dwells within you.
Jesus makes the weak, STRONG.

A Promise of the Holy Spirit

A Promise of the Holy Spirit

John 7:38
On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.  He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.”
 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing in Him would receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.



~~~Reflections~~~

We thirst for more of the Holy Spirit's presence.  A thirst for God will bring you a Season of Spiritual Growth. Even more so when you act on it. Fasting is a great way to get a drink of that Living Water. Fasting is also one of the greatest spiritual warfare weapons, as long as you do it with prayer, word and worship. With out prayer, word and worship fasting is only a diet. When you fast there is an increase of the Lords presence and favor.  If you want to have your heart to flow with rivers of living water, the Holy Spirit, Believe in Jesus. Draw near to him, during the fast and Expect to receive favor from the Lord. 

Never Hunger, Never Thirst,

Bread of Life

John 6:35 And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst."

~~~Reflections~~~

When you read this verse, most likely you think about physical food.
I want you to picture your most desired food, Something you might eat everyday. Any meal.
Now think about the drink, what ever drink you enjoy the most. Mine would be that cup of coffee first thing in the morning. The aroma that fills the air.



Jesus is the Bread of Life and you shall never hunger and never thirst.  If you are hungry or thirsty for more of Him. Give up somethings that you Love to eat and or drink,  This is called a fast. Fasting is meant for you to have grow a deeper relationship with the Lord.  The length and reasons of a fast may vary.  1 day, 3 days, a week,  21 days.... ordaining the elders of a church, Seeking the Lord, Intercession, Humbling yourself, repenting, healing, Gods favor, protection, spiritual deliverance.

When you deny yourself your desires. Seeking the Lord diligently in worship, prayer and  in the word.Jesus will give you an abundance of Himself. The Bread of Life. The Living Water. Food for your soul.

and saith, 
Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.
