Let us meet in any suitable place



Father, let us meet in any suitable place to worship you
and let us be united with those Christians who gather together.

May I feel the strenght of a consecrated group of believers around the world.
Amen

Prayer request opportunity

Once in a while we can be squeezed with difficult questions.  Sometimes we do not know where to go to with our questions and difficulties.  But we must realize that there is always someone that is always prepared to listen.
We have our Father that is in heaven, and is a loving father who always keeps an eye on HIs Creation.

If you wish you now can share your feelings and prayers with followers of Christ and send your requests to pray to God. You may ask them to pray together with you for you or for others.

Given more than I deserve

Father,

help me to see that you’ve already
given me more than I deserve.

With each gift that I receive from
your hand, help me to bow down and thank you with real gratitude.

Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible
hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious,
the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious —Thy great name we praise.

Nothing can separate us from God’s compassionate affection in Christ Jesus

Dear Lord, the security that nothing can separate me of your love,
drives each fear for life, with all unexpected illnesses and tragedies away.
Nothing can separate me of your love!
Halleluja!  Amen.


“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, {Or not heavenly rulers} neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Ro 8:38-39 NIV)

Prayer for today: Free me from excesses of this life

Lord, grant me the grace to be free from the excesses of this life.
Let me not get caught up with the desire for wealth.
Keep my heart and mind free to love and serve you.

Sow and harvests in the garden of your heart


"The heart is our garden,
and along with each action there is an intention that is planted like a seed.
We can use a sharp knife to cut someone,
and if our intention is to do harm, we will be a murderer.
We can perform an almost identical action,
but if we are a surgeon, the intention is to heal and save a life.
The action is the same, yet depending on its purpose or intention,
it can be either a terrible act or a compassionate act."
- Jack Kornfield

"Listen then to what the parable of the sower means:
* When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it,
the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart.
This is the seed sown along the path.

* The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word and at once receives it with joy.
But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time.
When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away.

* The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns
is the man who hears the word,
but the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it,
making it unfruitful.

* But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil
is the man who hears the word and understands it.
He produces a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown."

Matthew 13:18-23

Dear God, let me produce a crop, yielding a hundred, sixty or thirty times what was sown.

A love not exempting us from trials


"God's love for us is not a love that always exempts us from trials,
but rather, a love that sees us through trials."
- Anonymous

“If we open our heart for the love of God
we  get more ‘breathing space’
and more easily can we aim ourselves  to the will of God.”
 - Marcus Ampe

“The love of God is an one of the largest realities in the universe
A pillar on which the hope of the world rests.
But it is also a personal intimate matter.

God does not love races, he loves people.
He does not love masses, but people.
- A. W. Tozer

"Not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings,
because we know that suffering produces perseverance;
perseverance, character;
and character, hope.
And hope does not disappoint us,
because God has poured out his love into our hearts …"
Romans 5:3-5

God, our maker, give that we can be formed for the  good by You.
Give us your fatherly love and lead us not in temptation
but release us of angriness and evil
and give that we can share your love with others.

Trust the future to God


“Let the future not agitate you. You will meet it,
and if you must with the same weapons of reasoning
with which you arm yourself today against the present.”
 - Marcus Aurelius

"The future is something, which everyone reaches
at the rate of sixty minutes an hour,
whatever he does, whoever he is."
- C. S. Lewis

“Be never frightened to trust an unknown future to a well-known god."
 - Corrie ten Boom

"Conduct yourselves wisely toward outsiders,
making the most of the time."
Colossians 4:5

“Continue buying out for yourselves the appointed time, because these days are wicked.”
Ephesians 5:16

God, make me competently for this time to endure and full good courage to look out to the Day of the Lord.

Forming a soft white blanket


"Snowflakes are a fragile thing individually,
but look at what they can do when they stick together."
- Fernando Bonaventura

"If one falls down, his friend can help him up.
But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up!
Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
But how can one keep warm alone?
Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken."
Ecclesiastes 4:10-12

God, let my words get the stumbling right onto their feet again
 and make that I with several brethren and sisters can form one spirit,
and can spread Your Word and let others associate with us,
so that we can create one gentle blank carpet.

Stick to one God


"Consider the postage stamp:
its usefulness consists in the ability to stick to one thing till it gets there."
- Josh Billings

“Do not trust holding God’s love;
let Him hold your hand.
Let him take care of the holding you and that you ensure the confidence.”
 - Hammer William Webb-Peploe

"It is a trustworthy statement: For if we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
If we endure, we will also reign with Him."
2 Timothy 2:11-12

My lord and my master,
in You I trust my life and my future.
On You I continually hope,
do not disappoint me
and lead me to eternal life.

Call unto God so that He can answer you

To Lydia
Jeremiah 33:2-3 (41 kb)
"'Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.'"



Thoughts
For those who think that God does not hear them. And for those who think they can not hear God because He would have disowned them .
    This was originally spoken to Jeremiah about the fate of Jerusalem. However, this promise is true in special ways for us as well. God wants us to call to him. God often waits for us to ask before he blesses us with what he longs to give us. Yet we lack the ability to comprehend and receive all the great truth about God. He is simply too big and too glorious for us to fully comprehend him and his grace.God wants us to seek him and call out to him. He wants to answer us and tell us about things beyond our human comprehension. He longs to draw us close so that we can know him. Like a scared child calls out to a loving father in the next room, we too can call on him knowing that our Father will answer, protect, and comfort us. Even more than that, our Father will reveal to us things that would be impossible for us to know without his grace.
Prayer
   
Almighty God and Abba Father, I do want to know you and to be known by you. Yes, there are things in my heart and my life that I wish were not there. But I know your grace and I am confident that you know my heart and its desire to reflect your glory, share your grace, and display your character.Father and Almighty God, you are breath-taking and beyond my ability to comprehend. Dear Father, please bewilder the world by coming on a day everyone least expects it. I do long to know you better, dear Father.Thank you for the gift of being your child and having my future secured. In Jesus' name. Amen.

Phil Ware and Marcus Ampe
