AS YOU GO!

AS YOU GO!

Saying you have Faith, while being too afraid to move forward into uncharted territory is operating in Fear and not Faith. 

The longer you doubt God, the longer you will stay stuck in your prison of perceived comfort. 

Your blessing is sometimes dependent upon your movement. In order to receive your blessing you must first “move from your place of comfort” before seeing the manifested blessing. 

AS YOU GO you will begin to see evidence that God Is indeed with you and working in your favor. 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“So when He saw them, He said to them, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And so it was that as they went, they were cleansed. And He said to him, “Arise, go your way. Your faith has made you well.” (Luke‬ ‭17‬:‭14‬, ‭19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

CONSECRATED

CONSECRATED”

Jehovah Tsidkenu—God of our Righteousness—Pour out Your Spirit on Your people allowing a spiritual freshness to fall upon each of us so that we might effectively serve in building up your kingdom here on earth!

Help us to fervently and passionately use our spiritual gifts and talents for ministry, mission and witnessing to the unchurched, unsaved, and saved alike.

Consecrate our hearts so that we grieve over our personal sins and the sins of mankind—repenting and turning away from those things that break Your heart and turning to Your Word for the strength we need to truly Live Holy day-by-day.

I Pray for spirit-fed, spirit-lead and anointed pastors, teachers, preachers, leaders, and all true Christ followers to rise up with holy boldness to proclaim Your sovereignty, omnipotence, faithfulness, mercy, grace and Love! 

This is my humble prayer, Oh Lord—In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus! Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Consecrate yourselves therefore, and be holy, for I am the Lord your God. And you shall keep My statutes, and perform them: I am the Lord who sanctifies you.” (Leviticus‬ ‭20‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

FEAR NOT!

“FEAR NOT”

Wisdom is born out of adversity. God saw your storm before it formed. Keep rowing (praying) and trusting God. You may take on some water (lessons learned) in the crossing (process), but continue to obey God and you will make it to the other side.🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Now when Jesus saw a crowd around him, he gave orders to go over to the other side.”

“And he said to them, “Why are you afraid, O you of little faith?” Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.” (Matthew‬ ‭8‬:‭18, 26‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

HE’S STILL WORKING!

Heavenly Father, Thank you for yet another day! For we do not always know how or what we should pray; therefore, Holy Spirit we invite you to pray through us, discerning our every moan and groan, and fulfilling our deepest heart’s desire. 

Lord God, release your peace that surpasses all understanding. Where there is unrest comfort the hearts that are grieving; unshackle the minds that are captive; and unleash those bound by unholy habits. 

In the Name of Jesus, send your ministering angels to bind up the broken hearted and set captives free! Holy Spirit, draw those who are lost into a close encounter with The One who Saves…JESUS! 

Thank you, Abba, for doing it…It’s in the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray and praise always. Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford
