 Prayer: 

Father, we praise you this Wednesday morning. Happy Valentine’s Day! Thank you, Father, for giving us this day, our daily bread and for leading us not into temptation, but delivering us from all evil. Help us to see all the choices we have ahead of us so that we can alter the direction of our lives. In this new year, we don’t want to repeat or keep traveling the same road. Give us the wisdom on how to handle situations in our lives. We ask You to empower us to let go of the painful events and heartaches that would keep us bound. Thank You for Your forgiveness that You have offered to us at such a great price. Pour it into our hearts so we can relinquish bitterness, hurts and disappointments that have no place in our lives. Please set us free to forgive those who have sinned against us and caused us pain, Open our hearts to receive Your complete forgiveness and amazing grace. You have promised to bind up our wounds and restore our soul. Create within us a clean heart and renew our spirit, Lord. Help us to relinquish our past, surrender to You our present and move to the future that You have prepared for us. I ask You to come into our hearts and make us who You have called us to be so that we might do Your will here on earth. We thank You Lord in advance. We pray that You will begin to gloriously renew our present. In JESUS name we pray, Amen.  

Reflections: 

Today is a day that we celebrate "Love". It is a day that we call Valentine’s Day. A day to show our love and honor to our loved ones and our significant other. A lot of us will go out and buy cards, balloons, flowers, candy or gifts just to show our appreciation and love for one another. But the same way that we show our love to one another on this day, we can continuously show that type of love all year round. Every day is a day to love. God commands us to love. He said in his word that there is no greater love than a man has to lay down his life for his friend, which means not literally lay your life down your life, but lay down some of the things that you got going on in your life; to be there for someone else, to see what’s going on in someone else’s life, to assist them and offer a helping hand. Our love walk is messed up. We loosely say "I love you". Your mouth says love, but your actions say something else that’s not loving. Love is caring. Love is kind. Love is dependable. Love is responsible. Love is available. Love is faithful. Love is supportive. Love is accountable. Love is respectful. Love is honest. Love is compassionate. Love is a gift from God. I thank God that he has allowed me, in my lifetime, to experience true love. Sometimes in life, we lose love ones and sometimes love comes to an end because people change. They allow the cares of this world, certain situations and circumstances to change them. Then they say they fell "out of love". Some just don’t know how to love. They are incapable of loving but once you experience love, unconditional love, it's love on a whole new level. But loving with conditions means that we love a person if a situation stays this way or  that way or if a person is able to do this for me or if you continue to have this type of money or if you continue to drive this type of car or if you have this type of job  or if you have this type of influence or if you stay looking a certain way. But if any of that changes, then their love changes and that’s not unconditional love. That’s not loving  in a Godly way. That’s fake, false Love. Unconditional love is solid, grounded and unmovable. No one wants to truly be involved or love someone with a condition. God says that love covers a multitude of sin and it’s a blessing to love and be loved. To love family, your kids and friends is a blessing. To love and have love being reciprocated back to you is a blessing from God. So do not dishonor, disrespect or disregard the gift that God has given us, to be able to truly love one another another. Love with no limits. God is Love and we are from God so love like you are from love and created from Love .  

 Quotes:

 

 Love all, trust a few, do wrong to none. 

 You call it madness, but I call it love. 

 We can only learn to love by loving. 

 A life lived in love will never be dull. 

Life is the flower for which love is the honey. 

All you need is love. True love stories never have endings A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.  Elbert Hubbard

Reflection: 

Father,  I want to live my life committed to your will and plan for me. I admit, Father, that staying grounded requires commitment, discipline and no distractions. Lord, I know that being Holy means I am completely dedicated to You and towards Your purpose for my life. That means not allowing myself to get distracted. Father, I'm so thankful that You don’t require me to be perfect. But you require commitment by me surrendering all to you, Father. I know that i can be Holy because You are Holy! And I know you wouldn’t ask me to live Holy if it wasn’t possible. Lord, let the power of Your Holy Spirit be at work in me so I will stay grounded in your will and purpose. I want to live a life of purpose and commitment. I want to be sold out for the kingdom. Nothing else matters to me at this point but building and growing in you, Father  Apart from You, I can do nothing, Father, but with You all things are possible! Help me to include You in every part of my life! You know my strengths, weaknesses and all my flaws but You still chose me! Thank you for helping me to live a life of purpose and to experience your love. I know that you want the best for me.  I know that you have given me all I need to walk this life out and with you I can’t fail. I win every time with you by my side.

Quotes: 

Holiness does not consist in doing extraordinary things. It consists in accepting, with a smile, what Jesus sends us. It consists in accepting and following the will of God. Mother Teresa 

Self-righteousness is much like a spiritual egocentricity. It constitutes a secular type of love that thrives under conditionality, one in which is only existent after an individual meets the adopted standards of the condemner; oppositely, unconditional love is a holy love. Criss Jami 

Why would we want fame, when God promises us glory? Why would we be seeking the wealth of the world when the wealth of heaven is ours? Why would we run for a crown that will perish with time, when we're called to win a crown that is imperishable?  Paul Washer 

 Love is holy because it is like grace--the worthiness of its object is never really what matters. 

 Robinson 

 When God takes out the trash, don't go digging back through it. Trust Him.

Reflection: 

Father, I'm so thankful and grateful that you keep your promises, even when we mess up and miss it. We have failed you but you never have failed us. We may not understand how you work things out. But your way is not like man's. Father, I"m surrendering all over to the Holy Spirit so I can be transformed and molded into a believer that walks in obedience and discipline, I’m learning how to walk in love and forgiveness, no matter what, because that's what you commanded us to. Father, I just believe that you are a GOD that is so faithful and keeps all your promises and covenants that you have made to your Children. Father, I want to experience the fullness of the faithfulness of your promises and all you have in your will for my life. I will walk it out, Father. I’m so grateful for this season of new revelations and discernment that you have given me. I am blessed beyond measure to be one that’s chosen to be an ambassador for you, Fathe

r. Show me what hindrances need to be rebuked and removed from my life. I don’t want anything that is not in your will or that's not from you Father. Show me, in the spirit and the natural, what has to be removed and what I have to walk away from. Let no idol be overlooked and no stronghold be ignored. I want all of you. I want to take full possession over every promise and blessing You have for me. I'm walking in my inheritance and claiming all that’s mine in the mighty name of JESUS!

 Quotes: 

God’s faithfulness is the one constant in the equation. He is the Rock on which we stand.

God has no religion.    Mahatma Gandhi 

God will not look you over for medals, degrees or diplomas but for scars.

Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is a daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.

Mahatma Gandhi 

Your struggles and tears will NEVER be wasted but will be transformed into a healing balm after your victory, release and manifestation comes. You've won already. Hold on just a little while longer. Everything will be alright. We serve a God whose Name is FAITHFUL.

Reflection:

Father, I realize that I may have been focusing more on my outer than my inner spirit. I don’t want to put more time on the exterior things and loss focus or neglect my inner spirit. Father, I know it’s about balance but somewhere along the way I think l may sometimes loose focus on what matters.  Father, help me to focus. The enemy really has the minds and hearts of many. I, myself, have experienced people's behavior. They stay on their phones, watch TV, play all kinds of worldly music, but they have all kind of issues and problems going on. Some are having relationship problems, job problems, stressful problems, anxiety problems, depression problems, health problems or business problems. But instead of seeking you first, as you have commanded us to do which is to seek first the kingdom of GOD and your righteousness and in all these problems and issues you will help us navigate to see our way clear. You will give us wisdom and discernment on how to handle the situations if we return to your word. The first thing we do when our eyes open is grab our phone to look at social media or start laughing and talking to someone before we even had a chance to connect with you. Father, you are the one who created us. We wait until pressure is put on us so we have a breakdown and then we wanna run to you GOD or reach out to you for prayer and asking for help. I wonder why we wait until the problem gets so bad that we ask for help when you are there all the time?   We need to build ourselves up on the word of GOD which is through worship,  prayer, connecting to your vision and plan by staying focus and committed to you. We keep thinking that we are self-made and that we allow everything and anything to distract us and keep us from connecting to you.  GOD, I have learned that life produces plants that are exactly like seeds. The seed will always be duplicated in the plant. The seed from which we have grown is the essence of GOD. GOD is a Spirit. We are a Spirit. At every twist of life, we doubt, question and, in some cases, deny the very existence of GOD that without any doubt, exist within our being.The life within us is the very same essence that is GOD . In that essence, you have the same power, the same wisdom and the same love that GOD has. It is the presence of this GOD existence that is the truth and the essence of who we are. We also have a body Which many of us complain about it . Something about it we don’t like so we spend time dressing and working on fix up the outer man. But the big question the think that been on my mind is have we consider for just a moment how we  feel about and care for the part of us that you can see, what does that mean about the part of us that we cannot see? In other words, how much care and time are we given to our GOD Self? Our Spirit man . How much grooming do you do for your spirit ?Your GOD essence must be groomed. Not because GOD needs it, because you do! You must bathe your GOD -essence in the spiritual waters of seeing and serving the GOD essence in everyone . You must feed your Spirit  with prayer with meditation with praise and worship music to build up your spirit into impart into your spirit things to build your self up so when the attacks come you can deal with it victoriously . we cannot keep being on emotional spiritual roller coaster ride up-and-down back-and-forth two days happy three days sad today miserable it’s like we’re Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde with emotional mood swings according to what our circumstances look like or feel like when the Bible tells us we don’t walk by sight  we walk by faith trusting and believing that the GOD that we say we love and serve he will make a way and it may not be the way that we want and we have to be fine with that knowing that he knows the plans that he has for us and everything that we want and we think that we want it may not be GODS  plan for us .It may not be good for us . Every now and then you must give your spirit and mind a break of silence. You must rest your GOD essence on a bed of faith. If you dress in spiritual clothing designed by kindness, compassion and forgiveness humility, consideration . It will quickly outgrow all the limitations of being covered by your humanness.Trust the process . in the past you may have focusing your energy on changing your physical being. starting  today , We going work on devoted to the care of your inner spirit Man as well now the physical and outer man matters to but let’s have a equal balance knowing that we are made up of three part beings mind , body and Spirit and when do put this in practice something really wonderful and powerful will start to grow in side of you . Walk it out. We Winning this Year no excuse let get. 

Quotes: 

Just as our physical body must be fed, our spirit man must also be fed. But somehow we seem to think we can have a great relationship with God without feeding ourselves with His Word and filling ourselves with His presence.

Joyce Meyer

I assure you that when you starve the flesh by feeding your spirit; those negative desires, and those negative emotions will die

Feed your soul in addition to your body.

Julie Nguyen

Your mind is the channel of it all. It feeds your soul, your heart, everything. It comes from your thoughts. The kind of person you are comes from the way you think. And it bleeds into the way you feel. And such forth. If the mind is not free, then we won’t be free.

Stephen Marley

You have one lifetime to live. Choose  what feeds your soul.

Sara Sperling

It’s important to walk away from things and people that don’t feed your soul but make sure you’ve given yourself enough time to truly know when to release it and move on. 

Paulo Coelho
