“ABOVE ALL…LOVE”
Some people are always ready to Love you Back—But what a difference it would make in this world IF we learned to Love others FIRST. That’s called Loving like Christ.🙏🏽~M. Ford
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35 NASB1995)
“Compromise Kills”
By nature Compromise is a temporary solution to a permanent situation. Someone else said it like this, “Compromise makes a good umbrella, but a poor roof”.
When the persistent storms of life hit hard, a compromised Christian lifestyle will shipwreck.
Remember…It’s never wrong to do the right thing. Don’t compromise your spiritual integrity to receive worldly treasures, applause or approval.
This leads to spiritual death and renders your Christian walk unfruitful and void of witness.☠️ Stick & Stay with JESUS!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:1-2 NASB1995)
“TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS”
Happiness is dependent upon “happenings” and therefore is fleeting. On the other hand, JOY comes from knowing JESUS—The world didn’t give it to you and the world can’t take it away!🙌🏼👆🏽
Although in this world trials will test your faith, stretch your patience and attempt to rob you of your peace…Don’t sacrifice Holiness for Happiness.
In order to become Trees of Righteousness you must allow God’s perfect work to take root in you as you go through.💪🏽
God’s promises are always true—He will give you Beauty for Ashes, a Garment of Praise and the Oil of His JOY will once again flow freely in your heart!💜SHALOM🙏🏽~M. Ford
“To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The Oil of JOY for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called Trees of Righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” (Isaiah 61:3 NKJV)
“IT’S HARVEST TIME”
Don’t expect a bountiful harvest if you have no seed in the ground.
WORK—WORSHIP—WAIT!
In the fullness of time God will send Showers of Blessings that you won’t have room to receive.
IT’S HARVEST TIME!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“But this I say: He who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully.” (2 Corinthians 9:6 NKJV)
“God Bless Our Home”
My Prayer for you today is that God’s unconditional love will surround your heart and His sweet, sweet presence abide in your home.
Father God, allow your peace to be our pillow at night and your grace to rest in the atmosphere by daylight.
I pray for harmony to flow from room-to-room and that love and unity will always be the cords that bind our family together.
I pray that the incense of our prayers will rise high above our ceiling to the very thrown room of God and showers of blessings will fall on our home like raindrops from heaven.
I pray that as we walk in and out of our doors we will be followed by God’s favor! GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS TOWARDS US!🙌🏼👆🏽
This prayer I pray…for GOD to Bless Our Home today and every day—In the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus…Amen.🌈
Have A Very Blessed Day!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“In peace I will both lie down and sleep, For You alone, O Lord, make me to dwell in safety.” (Psalms 4:8 NASB1995)
“PRESS and PRAY”
RESILIENCE is the order of the day.
Don’t despair—If you press in PRAYER you will begin to see a glimmer of God’s Glory.
Keep SOARING HIGHER…in obedience and prayer! 🦅Your breakthrough is just on the horizon!👆🏽🙏🏽~M. Ford
“He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, And the young men shall utterly fall, BUT those who wait on the LORD Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint.” (Isaiah 40:29-31 NKJV)
“BASIC INSTINCT”
Satan sows seeds of discord. Christ brings clarity and spiritual vision.
Don’t let Satan blindside you with smoke and mirror tricks, traps and deception. Always remember that Satan is a deceitful, lying, manipulator who will do anything to knock you off the divine course GOD has for you!👿🤛🏽
But the closer your relationship with The Father, the clearer your spiritual vision will become, and discernment will become a basic instinct.😇🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Beloved, do not imitate what is evil, but what is good. He who does good is of God, but he who does evil has not seen God.” (III John 1:11 NKJV)
“FILL MY CUP LORD”
If you desire the Lord to order your steps and lead you in the right path, then first pause in prayer at the beginning of the day to ask Him to lead the way. LORD, fill my cup until it overflows onto others as I go today! Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford
“But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33 NKJV)
“RED SEA FAITH”
Red Sea Faith is when you keep walking forward even when you see a closed door in front of you.🚪
When GOD tells you to “Go Forward”, You are responsible for taking the Step…GOD is responsible for Opening the Door—JUST KEEP WALKING FORWARD!👆🏽🙏🏽~M. Ford
“And the Lord said to Moses, “Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to Go Forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.” (Exodus 14:15-16 NKJV)
“NO FAILURE IN GOD”
Even thought your struggle is real…so is your GOD!👆🏽There are lessons to be learned in the wilderness. That’s why The Potter doesn’t rush the process. TRUST GOD—He specializes in VICTORIES!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, As in the day of trial in the wilderness, When your fathers tested Me; They tried Me, though they saw My work.” (Psalms 95:8-9)
