“MORE OF YOU”

MORE OF YOU

Heavenly Father, forgive us of our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. For we know that we all have sinned and fallen short, so we need your cleansing power in our lives daily. Help us not to be conformed to this world—taking on the likeness of those who don’t know who you are and living by the worlds superficial values and customs. But, give us the mortal fortitude, consecrated heart, and a willing mind to be transformed and progressively changed day-by-day as we mature spiritually and take on more of your likeness by the renewing of our minds—focusing on godly values, ethical actions, and cultivating grateful attitudes so that we may prove what the Will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect in Your plan and purpose for us. Holy Spirit, set a fire down in our soul that we can’t contain and can’t control—we need more of you in order to live holy, Oh God, and less of this world! Thank you, Lord, for hearing and answering this humble prayer. In Jesus’ Name…Amen 🙏🏽

“And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2)

“KNOW GOD”

“DO YOU KNOW GOD?”

KNOW GOD. KNOW PEACE.

No God. No Peace.

Heavenly Father, I pray that the Peace of God—that peace which reassures us when we doubt, that settles our spirit in the midst of chaos, that comforts our soul in times of tribulation, that transcends all understanding and is incomprehensible to those who do not put their trust in You—I pray that THAT PEACE will stand guard over our hearts and our minds during these tumultuous times! Lord, grant this petition on this day for all those who are called by your name I humbly pray. Amen (Philippians 4:7)

“THE BLESSING OF DELAY”

“The Blessing Of Delay”

Sometimes God will send a “headwind” in your Life to slow you down so that you don’t get to your destination too soon—before Patience has done its perfect work in You! Although the Vision might tarry or be delayed, when you are “Ready” according to God’s “timing”, He will send a “tailwind” that will get you to HIS intended destination right on time! ~M Ford

“My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.” (James 1:2-4)

“…And Will Forgive Their SIN”

“…AND WILL FOREVER THEIR SIN”

Father God, You alone are faithful and just to forgive our sins, cleanse us from all unrighteousness, and restore the years that were eaten away by the consequences of our sinful actions!

Thank You Lord, for your promise to extend mercy and forgiveness to those who confess and forsake their sins! Today, Oh Lord, we lay at your feet and ask forgiveness for sins of omission and commission—for we all have sinned and fallen short of your glory!

Father, we thank You that Your ear is not closed to our cry’s, Your hands are ready to wipe away all our tears, Your arms will catch us when we fall and rock us when we hurt because Your love never fails—even in our darkest hours!

What then shall we render unto You, Oh Lord, for all of Your mercy and kindness towards us? We shall offer You the sacrifice of Praise—early in the morning, at noontime, and even in the midnight hours our hearts will rejoice and our lips will praise You on high! Hallelujah and Amen!

“Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.” (Proverbs 28:13)

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John 1:9)
