My Special Prayer


I pray for knowledge and understanding.

“Dear Jesus, I pray for Your special protection over my life, my wife, my home, and this ministry you have given me to reach out to a world that so desperately needs You. I choose to be only Your servant, ever-willing to serve You; always ready to obey Your voice. Your “belt of truth” guards me against Satan’s evil deceptions and his darkness. It is You who provides the beacon of light that gives me hope, and the ability to see more clearly what is the real truth. I pray the words of my mouth and the meditation of my mind will always be pleasing to You O Lord.

Father, pour me full of Your Word until I am running over. I want to feel full of Your Spirit down deep in my life. You are my heart's delight! I need to know Your will for my life.

Jesus, I am asking for your forgiveness when I fail You. Whenever I am not speaking Your truth quicken my knowledge, my understanding, according to Your will, so I may only speak what You would have me to speak for Your sake.

Holy Spirit, protect me from the lies of Satan so I may never deceive anyone. Allow me Your knowledge and understanding so that what I say and write always aligns with the Father’s will. May my words always convey what God, the Father reveals, and they always satisfy the divine benefit He intends for His people. Thank you Lord for choosing me, a sinner, to be in Your service. I am blessed. Amen.”

Suggested reading: The “belt of truth” is described in (Ephesians 6:14-16.) I hope you will take a moment to re-discover all the protections of this wonderful Scripture.

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you. I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

APPROVED

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). (2 Timothy 2:14-26) instructs those whom He knows are His ; and don’t we aspire to be recognized as such, to be approved by God? He tells us to avoid godless chatter (gossip), because we will become more and more ungodly. God warns that what we say can affect others, even destroying the faith of some. Heaven forbid we should say anything to do such damage!   Approved we flee the evil desires of youth we pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace. We don’t have anything to do with foolish and stupid arguments because we know they only produce quarrels. As God’s servants we mustn’t quarrel; instead we must be kind, able to teach, and be not resentful.   Approved we are to gently instruct those who oppose us, hoping God will grant them repentance and lead them to the knowledge of His truth.

God’s Family

He provides resources for the family “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those whom call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God’s plan for marriage and the family, in the Bible, is intended to be ideal, full of prosperity for every member. Would you say this describes your family? Maybe, maybe not, however, even if your family has missed His mark His Word deals with life realistically. Many of us experience some aspect of failure or serious disappointment with the way our family is living. Many families today are divided by divorce or living as single-parent family units. God alone can provide the needed resources and the loving care vital for the needs of these families who are dealing with life. If you are having trouble in your family turn to Jesus. He is your primary resource for forgiveness and your hope for renewal (Ephesians 1:7).   He forgives no matter if the failure is yours or it is one of those times when someone else fails yo...
