SUMMARY:Matthew 3:2
DESCRIPTION:Matthew 3:2 And saying\, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. (KJV) \nAre you asking for forgiveness?  \nBelievers have shared a lot about why you should repent. God is faithful and just to forgive you and cleanse you from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9)\, forgive me as I forgive others (Matthew 6:14)\, etc. Are there times when you don’t want to say\, “I’m sorry”? If so\, what do you do? Do you remember what you were taught to do? Do you think about the times when you wanted forgiveness and will probably want it again? Do you want God to forgive you thinking unforgiveness will keep Him from forgiving you\, and you won’t go to heaven? However you answer those questions\, you are the focus; what you want\, what you feel\, what you need. Here is a perspective that is worth thinking about.  \nIs saying the words “I’m sorry\, or forgive me” causing you an issue? It could very well be you did nothing “you feel” you should be sorry for. However\, that does not fix the problem. Shouldn’t confronting the issue and owning your part in it be about who God is?  \nMatthew 5:23-24 Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar\, and there remember that your brother has something against you\, 24 leave your gift there before the altar\, and go your way. First be reconciled to your brother\, and then come and offer your gift. (NKJV) \nIt could be you acted or spoke intentionally. You could have been misunderstood or misinterpreted. It does not matter whether you feel you have done anything that requires forgiveness or not\, you may have. Only a conversation\, with the one who has something against you\, will clear that up. To reconcile\, you may have to admit what you did or said was wrong.   \nJames 4:17 So if you know the right way to live and ignore it\, it is sin—plain and simple. (TVT) \nGod does not look on sin\, no flesh can be in His presence. The only way He can see you is through the blood of His Son\, Jesus\, because you have repented. You can make “legitimate” excuses for your behavior. Just remember\, if you excuse yourself\, you have no need for God to do it. That is a scary place to be in. When you make provision for your flesh\, you place yourself outside of the presence of God.  \nProverbs 28:13 Whoever tries to hide his sins will not succeed\, but the one who confesses his sins and leaves them behind will find mercy. (TVT) \nCan you really afford to live there? David pleaded with God not to banish him from His presence. Please think about these things: \n\nHow much humility does it take to ask for forgiveness? \nDo you think you are humble enough not to struggle when God directs you to ask for forgiveness? \nDo I understand the opposite of humbleness is pride?\nDo you realize no one cannot humiliate you if there is no pride left in you? \nWill you agree God ordained or allowed those “humiliating moments”?\nIf you agree\, do you believe God will continue to orchestrate those moments until all pride is destroyed and His light can shine through you?\n\n Psalms 51:11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. (KJV) \nWhen you see God for who He is\, Holy\, Majestic\, Omniscient\, Alpha and Omega; you know you don’t deserve to be in His presence. He is willing. Do what you need to do to. Take advantage of the fact that He wants to spend time with you. Make your decision about Him and not about you. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, thank You for understanding and revelation. Asking for forgiveness is about my relationship with You. I had never thought about it that way before. I repent for making every situation about me and what I felt. You have taught me; it doesn’t matter if I think I had a good reason for doing what I did or saying what I said. Your word says if I think my brother or sister has an ought against me; I should go to them. It is not contingent upon who I am or who they are; it is all about You. I don’t want to leave my gift at the altar. When I bring it\, I pray You will receive it as a sweet savor. I want nothing to keep me from being in Your presence. I don’t want to be sorry because I got caught and confronted by the Holy Spirit. I will gladly apologize to whomever I need to apologize to. Not out of vanity or to make myself look like the “bigger person\,” I will apologize simply because I need to\, and I love You… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Psalms 63:8
DESCRIPTION:Psalms 63:8 My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me. (KJV) \nAre you obedient? \nWhen soldiers are in the middle of a war\, they fight. They do not stop to ask the commander if he is sure. They don’t do part of what they were told. Soldiers follow orders\, or they die. You are a soldier of the Lord. You are in a war\, on assignment. Your instructions are explicit; follow hard after the Lord.  \nMatthew 16:24 Then Jesus said to His disciples\, If anyone desires to be My disciple\, let him deny himself [disregard\, lose sight of\, and forget himself and his own interests] and take up his cross and follow Me [cleave steadfastly to Me\, conform wholly to My example in living and\, if need be\, in dying\, also]. (AMPC) \nYour obedience has to be without question. There is a blessing in being obedient: God protects you.  \nExodus 23:22 But if you will indeed listen to and obey His voice and all that I speak\, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries. (AMPC) \nDo you realize you walk out of the divine protection of God when you don’t do what He commands? Do you understand what happens when you disobey? Read Leviticus 26:14-39.  \nHebrews 12:25 Make very sure that you never refuse to listen to God when he speaks! For the God who spoke on earth from Sinai is the same God who now speaks from heaven. Those who heard him speak his living Word on earth found nowhere to hide\, so what chance is there for us to escape if we turn our backs on God and refuse to hear his warnings as he speaks from heaven? (TPT) \nIf you were wondering if you could do some of what God says and not all; there is no such thing as partial obedience. Saul learned that in 1 Samuel 15.  \n1 Samuel 15:13-14\, 22 When Samuel reached him\, Saul said\, “The LORD bless you! I have carried out the LORD’s instructions.” But Samuel said\, “What then is this bleating of sheep in my ears? What is this lowing of cattle that I hear?”… But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the Lord? To obey is better than sacrifice\, and to heed is better than the fat of rams”. (NIV) \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I can remember times when I told my mom or my dad that I did almost all of what I was told to do. Somehow\, I felt like I could have some level of pride attached to that “almost” accomplishment. Though they may have spared me\, I repent for thinking I could do the same thing with You. I understand\, when I obey You\, there is no almost\, there is no most of it\, there is no gray. I have either been obedient or I have been disobedient. That’s just the way it is. Please forgive me for presenting half of what You told me and thinking it was OK. For the times I almost loved everyone; I almost turned the other cheek; I almost showed kindness and mercy when needed. Help me follow through and see each assignment to the end. Thank You for the Holy Spirit\, who always lets me know if I have completed the task… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Philippians 2:12
DESCRIPTION:Philippians 2:12 Wherefore\, my beloved\, as ye have always obeyed\, not as in my presence only\, but now much more in my absence\, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. (KJV) \nDo you still need a babysitter? \nIn the early years of your life\, your parent\, your teacher\, your babysitter\, or whomever was always watching to make sure you did what you were told. As you got older\, even though you should have needed less supervision\, there was still someone there to make sure you did not get out of line. The responsibility for your actions did not completely rest on you. However\, there came a time when expectations changed. You needed to show you knew what to do when you were on your own. Were you able to? Are you able to\, whether or not you were being watched? The same principle applies with your God-given assignment. \nPhilippians 1:27 Only [be sure to] lead your lives in a manner [that will be] worthy of the gospel of Christ\, so that whether I do come and see you or remain absent\, I will hear about you that you are standing firm in one spirit [and one purpose]\, with one mind striving side by side [as if in combat] for the faith of the gospel. (AMP) \nBeing on assignment means you are mature. It means you don’t need someone else to tell you what God requires of you. You don’t need someone else to tell you when you have done something right or wrong.  \n1 John 2:27 But as for you\, the anointing (the sacred appointment\, the unction) which you received from Him abides [permanently] in you; [so] then you have no need that anyone should instruct you. But just as His anointing teaches you concerning everything and is true and is no falsehood\, so you must abide in (live in\, never depart from) Him [being rooted in Him\, knit to Him]\, just as [His anointing] has taught you [to do]. (AMPC) \nYou can go to God for yourself\, actually He wants and expects you to. You can hear God when He speaks (refer to the information in the Devotional Helps).  \nJohn 10:27 The sheep that are My own hear and are listening to My voice; and I know them\, and they follow Me. (AMPC) \nYou work with “reverential fear” and awe. God holds you responsible. You will answer for yourself. You will answer to Him alone. Be encouraged. God will let you know when you have done wrong. Why? Because He loves you. How? He will also chastise you (Hebrews 12:6). He wants you to fulfill your assignment. He desires for you to represent Him on the earth correctly.  \nTitus 2:7-8 And in all things show yourself to be an example of good works\, with purity in doctrine [having the strictest regard for integrity and truth]\, dignified\, 8 sound and beyond reproach in instruction\, so that the opponent [of the faith] will be shamed\, having nothing bad to say about us. (AMP) \nDon’t forget\, you are to be the image of an all-powerful and all-mighty God; you speak for the creator of the universe (you should tremble at the idea of it). Take off your shoes. The place where you stand is holy.  \n2 Corinthians 1:12 This is our [reason for] proud confidence: our conscience testifies that we have conducted ourselves in the world [in general]\, and especially toward you\, with pure motives and godly sincerity\, not in human wisdom\, but in the grace of God [that is\, His gracious lovingkindness that leads people to Christ and spiritual maturity]. (AMP) \nYour responsibility is higher\, and therefore the cost of needing a babysitter is too. Do you remember the priest\, in the temple of old\, with the bells on the bottom of his clothing? What happened when they stopped ringing? If you don’t know\, you can read it in Exodus 28:35. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, You have called me to the place where I don’t need anyone to oversee my actions. You have provided my assignment. My actions should glorify You. My love for You and my relationship with You should govern what I say and what I do. I repent for every time I misrepresented You. I don’t have to get approval from any man; Jesus’ death tore the veil. I can come to You for myself and by myself. I am grateful for the Holy Spirit. He is ever present. He serves as my conscious and guide. He will prick me when necessary. I want to know more about You. I don’t want You to have to prick me constantly. Help me submit to Your word and His guidance\, as I walk closer and closer to You every day. I want to be close enough to You. I want to choose what is right\, because I know it’s right. I want to respond appropriately\, because I know it is appropriate. Please chastise me\, because I am Yours. I want to walk in reverential fear\, and I tremble at the thought of disobeying You. Help me embrace this life You have designed for me\, as I come to You for direction. Keep me humble\, yet bold… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Matthew 17:21
DESCRIPTION:Matthew 17:21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting. (KJV) \nIs fasting and praying your religion or your lifestyle? \nYou can choose to live a mediocre life in Christ\, or you can choose to live a powerful one. There is a cost for a powerful life in Christ. The cost dedicated time spent in prayer and fasting. Please keep in mind\, you don’t determine the level of God’s power that works in you\, no matter how much you pray and fast; God does. He gives you what you need based on your relationship with Him and the assignment He has given you. Jesus explained this principle to the disciples.  \nMatthew 17:19-20 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and asked\, “Why could we not drive it out?” 20 He answered\, “Because of your little faith [your lack of trust and confidence in the power of God]; for I assure you and most solemnly say to you\, if you have [living] faith the size of a mustard seed\, you will say to this mountain\, ‘Move from here to there\,’ and [if it is God’s will] it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you.” (AMP) \nIn order to be used by God to heal certain sickness and cast out persistent and horrible demons; you need to build your relationship with the Father\, and you need faith\, developed through much prayer and fasting.  \nJude 20 But you\, beloved\, build yourselves up [founded] on your most holy faith [make progress\, rise like an edifice higher and higher]\, praying in the Holy Spirit; (AMPC) \nYes\, you fast when you are sleeping; that cannot be the only time. Also\, you should fast more than once a week/month or whatever the church schedule dictates.  \nJoel 2:12 Therefore also now\, says the Lord\, turn and keep on coming to Me with all your heart\, with fasting\, with weeping\, and with mourning [until every hindrance is removed and the broken fellowship is restored]. (AMPC) \nLuke 18:11-12 The religious leader stood apart from the others and prayed\, “How I thank you\, O God\, that I’m not wicked like everyone else. They’re cheaters\, swindlers\, and crooks—like that tax collector over there. God\, you know that I never cheat or commit adultery; I fast from food twice a week and I give you a tenth of all I earn”. (TPT) \nYou have to pray more than a couple of minutes before you fall asleep and couple more when you wake up.  \n1 Thessalonians 5:17-18 Pray without ceasing\, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. (NKJV) \nThis is the point where you decide if you are going to have a lifestyle\, not just a religion\, of prayer and fasting. You must have personal communion with the Father\, and a discipline of fasting the Lord has called you to\, not religious practices.  \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I thank You because fasting and praying are not just something I do; they are both a part of who I am. I repent for the times when I only fasted when instructed\, and I only prayed when I was in distress. I know I need to crucify my flesh. I know I have to deny what I want. When I do\, I can hear what You want. I thank You for correcting me and teaching me. My prayer time is no longer a laundry list of things I want You to take care of. Now it is a peaceful time of waiting and listening to hear Your voice. I want to know what You desire of me and from me. I thank You because though I can set aside time to spend with You\, I cannot schedule every precious and powerful moment. I have to be sensitive to You summoning me. I am grateful You call me to You. I am honored You create those moments. Help me to always respond with willing obedience and anticipation. Thank You for our time together… \nAsk the Lord what He wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:John 6:27
DESCRIPTION:John 6:27 “Do not labor for the food which perishes\, but for the food which endures to everlasting life\, which the Son of Man will give you\, because God the Father has set His seal on Him.” (NKJV) \nWhat are you working for? \nWhen you complete an assignment (no matter where that assignment is)\, you expect the praise\, the rewards\, and the promised payment. If you are working for men\, to get what the world values\, you get what men can give. How long will it last? \nMatthew 6:19-20 “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth\, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal; 20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven\, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal.” (NKJV) \nIf you are getting what the world wants and loving it\, the day will come when you will identify where your loyalties lie. Why? God has to show you where your heart is. Will you make a decision that will call your Christian values into question; will you laugh when someone tells a joke that is not funny for many reasons; will you compromise your standards to take one for the team\, etc.?  \nMatthew 6:24 No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other\, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon [money\, possessions\, fame\, status\, or whatever is valued more than the Lord]. (AMP) \nNo one can give you what you really want\, or stop you from getting what God has ordained for you to have. It does not matter how powerful you may think a person is. Is your ultimate goal to be with Jesus when He returns? Men don’t have control over that outcome. Do you want to spend eternity in heaven? Only the Almighty God can give that to you. When the time of testing comes\, don’t be afraid\, thinking you may lose what you have. If you chose incorrectly\, it will cost you your life.  \nMatthew 10:26-28 Do not be afraid of those who may taunt or persecute you. Everything they do—even if they think they are hiding behind closed doors—will come to light. All their secrets will eventually be made known. 27 And you should proclaim in the bright light of day everything that I have whispered to you in the dark. Whatever whispers you hear—shout them from the rooftops of houses. 28 Don’t fear those who aim to kill just the body but are unable to touch the soul. The One to fear is He who can destroy you\, soul and body\, in the fires of hell. (TVT) \nPlease keep in mind what you are really working for and work toward that end. Live the life God has commanded. He is The One who holds your greatest reward. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, there were times when I looked for the validation and approval of man. I repent because somehow; I lost sight of the fact that whatever I thought they could do for me\, they couldn’t give me a place in heaven. I also repent because I wanted what the world described as success\, the job\, the house\, the cars. Those things did not mean I was connected to You; even though I heard people say\, “God must really love you\, look how He is blessing you.” I had to build my relationship with You with Your help. Now\, my goal is to get Your validation and approval and Yours alone. I thank You for continuing to remind me of that fact. I appreciate those people who see my life as a sign of Your blessing. However\, I want them to see the right things. Help me keep You in the center\, worshipping You\, not always praising what You have done\, and what they will see is You… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:

SUMMARY:Matthew 11:12
DESCRIPTION:Matthew 11:12 And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence\, and the violent take it by force. (KJV) \nCan you get back what the enemy stole? \nQuestion: How long have you been under attack from the enemy?  \nAnswer: Since before you were born.  \nBefore you even realized there was a war\, the enemy picked you out to be a casualty. You can stand in a place where you are no longer a victim. You can realize you have all the tools you need to be victorious. Job shows you how to receive back what the enemy has taken from you.  \nJob 42:1-6 “I’m convinced: You can do anything and everything. Nothing and no one can upset your plans”.\nYou asked\, “Who is this muddying the water\, ignorantly confusing the issue\, second-guessing my purposes?”\nI admit it. I was the one. I babbled on about things far beyond me\, made small talk about wonders way over my head. You told me\, “Listen\, and let me do the talking. Let me ask the questions”. You give the answers. I admit I once lived by rumors of you; now I have it all firsthand—from my own eyes and ears! I’m sorry—forgive me. I’ll never do that again\, I promise! I’ll never again live on crusts of hearsay\, crumbs of rumor. (MSG) \nYou will find you lose what God has for you because of what comes out of your mouth. Understand you don’t just randomly say words. The things that you say are the things you believe\, it’s what’s in your heart. \nLuke 6:45b For the overflow of what has been stored in your heart will be seen by your fruit and will be heard in your words. (TPT) \nYou must believe God is almighty and nothing He wants to happen can be stopped. You must stop reacting as if God’s word is not true. You should not speak of things you do not understand nor have sufficient knowledge of. You have to live by what you know about God. If you stop and look over your life\, you will see Him at work. Repent and tell the Lord you will not do it anymore. \nPlease agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response: \nFather\, I repent for talking about the situation I have encountered\, as if I had all the information. I did not. I know I have to stand on who You are and there is no greater place to stand. You were at the end before the beginning. You were right there before I ever got to whatever situation I was in. You are all powerful. Sometimes I act as if You’re not. I am sorry. I have talked about my situations as if I know what You are doing in the lives of everyone involved. How could I? You are efficient\, and I was vain enough to think everything was all about me. I know that there is no situation You are not in control of. I know there is no problem You didn’t see coming. I repent now and I am sorry for all of it. I will be better because I will allow You to do the work in me\, without my interference. I receive back\, in faith\, everything I allowed the enemy to steal from me… \nAsk the lord what he wants to say to you about today’s devotional and journal it here:
