TRUTH or DARE

“TRUTH or DARE”

GOD knows the difference between “not being perfect” and being comfortable with your sin. Do you?🙏🏽~M Ford

”Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what they have done has been done in the sight of God.“ (John 3:20-21 NIV)

THERE IS A BALM

“THERE IS A BALM”

Heavenly Father, You alone are our help and hope in times like these. In You alone we find Strength to endure. You alone are our Rock of Ages, our Anchor that grips, our Balm of Gilead, our Battle Ax, our Redeemer, our Solid Rock! Heal those who are sick and in need of a healing touch from The Master physician.

Grant peace to those who are emotionally distraught, confused and living in tumultuous situations and devastation. Comfort and Mend the broken hearted. Restore that which the locus has eaten. We decree and declare the Victory on this day!

This day We choose to have an attitude of gratitude, and a Spirit of Praise as we move forward in Faith—It’s in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus The Christ I pray and praise always. Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Is there no balm in Gilead? Is there no physician there? Why then has the health of the daughter of my people not been restored?” (Jeremiah 8:21-22)

FAST and PRAY

“FAST & PRAY”

Heavenly Father, I pray that believers all around the globe are drawn to fast and pray during these crisis times for our families, churches, communities, nation and world.

Oh God, increase our believing faith in YOUR ability to intervene supernaturally and do the impossible in this time of world crisis!

I pray for our local, state and national leaders—that the hearts of those in authority will be turned back to You and the scriptures will once again guide all decision making.

I pray that believers lay aside their petty differences, personal agendas and divisive attributes and genuinely unite in prayer behind the desperate need for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit over our land!

Father GOD, Compel believers to return to SEEKING YOUR FACE in fervent, prevailing prayer, as you pour out your SPIRIT in response in ways unimaginable!

Deliver us from the fears that grip our souls and set us FREE in our spirits to sore 🦅 above these difficult and tumultuous times—releasing our FAITH over Fear so that we SHINE brightest in our darkest hours!

We love and trust you Abba… You are the Potter and we are the clay…have thine own way as we Fast and Pray…Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford

SOAR HIGHER 🦅

“SOAR HIGHER” 🦅

THE LORD IS…

“THE LORD IS…”

ABBA Father, because you are my shepherd I have everything I need. You feed me, lead me, guide me, provide for me, and you have not withheld any good thing from me because you are a good, good Father!

You, Oh God, are the lifter of my head when my countenance is low. You restore my soul, and lead me in the path of righteousness for your names sake. Even though evil may encamp all around me, your rod, and your staff are always there to protect, comfort, guide and console me because you are a good, good Shepherd!

Even when men seek to do me harm, You, Oh GOD, prepare a table of blessings before me and you make my enemies my footstool, because you and you alone, are the righteous judge!

You have anointed me for your purpose and equipped me for every good work… My cup runs over because of your favor!

Thank you, ABBA, for your goodness and your mercy and your everlasting love that follows me all the days of my life and into eternity! For this I give YOU praise…Hallelujah and Amen! 🙏🏽 ~M. Ford

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the Lord Forever.” (Psalms 23:1-6 NKJV)
