Title: *YOU ARE NOT ALONE


Psalm 34:18

The LORD is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.  

Inspiring Thought: *You Are Not Alone*

 

Is your heart broken today? Is your spirit crushed? This Psalm reassures us that the Lord is very near to us when we're facing overwhelming troubles. In fact, the Lord is right there, present with you in the sorrow, in the heartache. He is walking right through it with you. And you can lean on him for comfort, because he too knows what it feels like to be crushed and broken.

Recovery Thought:

Praising God is one of the highest and purest acts of religion.
In prayer we act like men; in praise we act like angels. ~ Thomas Watson

James 5:13 

Is anyone among you afflicted (ill-treated, suffering evil)? He should
pray. Is anyone glad at heart? He should sing praise {to God}.

Recovery Prayer

Holy God,
May Your praise be continually on my lips as I pray and commune
with You. Amen.

Title:*Bread of Life* - Wise Thoughts

Title: *BLESSED* Orb of Light 45 /Mm - Visual Prayer Art from Collection by Rev.Bola

Matthew 4:4
But he answered, "It is written, " 'Man shall not live by bread alone, 
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.' 
 

Inspiring Thought: *Bread of Life*

 

Like food that sustains our physical bodies, our spirits depend on the Word of God for life-supporting nourishment. Here, after 40 days of fasting in the wilderness, Jesus speaks the Word of God from Deuteronomy 8:3 to overcome the temptation of the devil. The Son of God, a man who possessed divine power to defeat the enemy, chose the weapon of Scripture to combat Satan. This powerful Sword is our weapon too—the same spiritual resource we have today—the Word of God! Are you feeding your spirit by feasting daily on God's Word? 

John 14:27
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth,
give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

*Wisdom Thought*:
Have no fear for the unsettlement or the disturbance of the Kingdom of heaven.
It began in eternity, it will go on through everlasting; there is no panic in the
divine personality. God is peace. God gives peace. God gives rest. ~ Joseph Parker

Recovery Prayer
Thank you Lord,
No matter what is going on within me or around me, You grant me peace.
When I come to You and surrender, Your unfailing gift to me is serenity and
rest. I praise You for Your graciousness in my life. Amen.

Title:*CAST ALL YOUR ANXIETY ON GOD*

Title:* CBT ORB3/Mm - Visual Prayer Art from Collection Painted by Rev.Bola (Nov2013)

*BLESSING No1*

Philippians 4:6–7
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 

*Inspiring Thought: Cast All Your Anxiety on Him

George Mueller said, "The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety." Someone else said, "Worry is unbelief in disguise." So, see your anxiety today for what it really is ... just a symptom. Turning to God in prayer and trusting completely in Him is the cure.

*BLESSING  No 2*

*Wise Thought: We lie to God in prayer if we don't rely on God after prayer.
{Submitted by Rev. Nancy}

Psalm 5:11 But let all those that put their trust in Thee rejoice:
let them ever shout for joy, because Thou defendest them:
let them also that love Thy name be joyful in Thee.

♰ Recovery Prayer ♰
Holy Father,
So often I pray asking for help, guidance and strength and then I
foolishly start relying on my own self or others for results. Keep
my focus on You, Your will and Your graciousness in all things.
In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen.
