🕊️ Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.

And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up.

And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed.

The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.

Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain; and it did not rain on the land for three years and six months.

And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth produced its fruit. 🕊️

James 5:13-18

Good morning Father!

Thank You for this day!

Thank You for my life!

Thank You for my sweet bride!

Thank You for my beautiful daughter!

All that I am and all that I possess, they are blessings from You O Lord!

ThankYou!

Before my walking by Faith, when I struggle with something I cannot achieve, like a goal or task, I would become angry and frustrated with myself.

After You found me in my lowest state, and delivered me, and once I accepted the gifts You had for me to receive, it was then that I gained wisdom, and before I took on any challenge or task, or goal I hoped to achieve, I learned the first steps I should take is to seek Your blessing O Lord, and wise counsel.

I believe, It’s Your hand of blessing which makes me who I am today and all my goals reached, and it’s Your Grace, Mercy and Strength which sees me through all my struggles and life challenges.

I’ve learned to pray, then look for the answers. It’s in my first steps and actions, my answer is delivered. I never run from a challenge but I meet it head on with confidence and determination.

I don’t normally follow my feelings, rather after seeking the wisdom and knowledge of actions I wish to follow, it’s in my evaluating the outcomes of my first steps as I proceed.

I believe it’s when I’ve hit a wall that I must make a decision, after much prayer and consideration, I may seek to change my direction or my approach. It’s the willful determined mind that does not quit, even after failure, knowing there is an impossible wall facing, and continuing in the same direction, even after that failure, without Faith and without the confidence it’s with God’s blessing for my life, this is just foolishness.

And so I pray, O Lord, be with me in my thought process, in All things, may I seek You before Any endeavor, may I First seek Your blessing and seek wisdom first. 

Father, may I develop this Seek You First process as muscle memory, that’s “always seeking You First”, then proceed.

May I be blessed in all my work and all my decisions today.

With God’s blessing, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”

Bless my day today, O Lord!

May I walk by Faith and wisdom and knowledge, may I be a shinning witness of Your Spirit’s leading me and my walk of Faith in You O Lord, which is the reason for my success in life.

I pray blessings over All my children O Lord, I pray blessings over All my grandchildren O Lord, and All my great grandchildren, may they All seek Your will and Your blessing first, and may they shine as a witness of Your Love and blessings.

I lift up all the families of those who were killed over the weekend, may they find comfort in Your Loving arms and may they be surrounded with loved ones to comfort them.

I pray for Peace in Israel and Ukraine today, may Your Spirit of Peace speak to both sides of their conflict, and may they find the answers the seek for a lasting Peace.

May I shine today, as Your child of the light, in and through all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

Praise Yahweh!
