SIGNS OF LIFE

+I will come to you & FULFILL my good PROMISE.

[ Jeremiah 29:10 ] 💌

+In seasons of waiting when it seems like nothing is happening, God hasn't forgotten us.

+As the Holy Spirit helps us to develop patience, we can know that He's the Hope-Giver, the Promise-Keeper, and the One who controls the future. 😊

🙏 God, help me to have faith in You as I wait. I believe You're involved in my life and You care about my situation. In Jesus name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻🤍

THANKFUL

+In every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

[ Philippians 4:6 ]

+When we focus on God and His goodness, we find that we can pray without anxiety, in every situation, with thanksgiving.

+Giving thanks brings us a peace that uniquely guards our hearts and minds and changes the way we look at life.

+A heart full of gratitude nurtures a spirit of joy.

🙏 Father in heaven, where I see problems, grant me a spirit of gratitude and grateful praise. Thank You that I am able to be in Your presence.

+I want to surrender my life to You each day—to go where You want me to go. I say "yes" to whatever task You have for me, Lord. I'm ready. I'm willing. I'm listening. In Jesus' name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🍃💚

The Best Plans

+"For I know the plans I have for you,"declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

-‭‭Jeremiah‬ ‭29:11‬ ‭NIV‬‬ 💌

+And God does have a plan for you. God does want to bless you. God does want to give you hope and a future. 

+God is patient, but He is also just.

+God is serious about sin, but He's just as passionate about redemption.

+Though Jeremiah 29:11 was meant for a specific people at a specific time, God's heart for the restoration of broken people is generationally timeless. 

+Even when we feel stuck in the process, God still has a plan. We can put our trust in God whose goal is always redemption. 😊

🙏 God, I know You have a plan for my life, and that You want to bless me.

+Help me lean into that promise! Sometimes it is hard to see past my present struggles.

+Thank You for loving me even when I have doubts and fears. Fill me with Your hope and peace. In Jesus' name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🍃💚

Finding contentment in your work

+'Enjoy your work...this is indeed a gift from God.’

-Ecclesiastes 5:19 NLT

+Two-thirds of your adult life will be spent earning a living, and God wants you to enjoy it: 'To enjoy your work and accept your lot in life – this is indeed a gift from God.’

+Try to realise that God has a purpose for your being where you are. 'The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD' (Psalm 37:23 NKJV).

+When you understand that, you begin to rejoice on the job rather than resent it, and believe that God has a plan for your future.

+It may be a different job, a promotion in your present job, or improving your skill set, which will result in your feeling fulfilled, knowing you are a valued and contributing team member.

+So with one eye on the present and another on the future, your goal should be to perform your responsibilities with efficiency and professionalism, and glorify the One whose name you carry.

+Learn all you can from your current position – both in skill building and in character building.

+Prepare yourself for what God has in mind.

+Be faithful and seek to excel where God has placed you, and when the time is right He will bless you and promote you.

+'It is God alone who judges; he decides who will rise and who will fall' (Psalm 75:7 NLT). 😊

🙏 Lord, help me to see my work as a gift from You.

+In those times when I'm finding my work challenging, please draw close to me and remind me that I can find contentment in knowing that I'm where You want me for the present.

+I pray that I would always glorify and honour You through my attitude towards my work.

+Thank You that You encourage me to do my best and give me opportunities to learn and grow. In Jesus name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🍃💚

PANALANGIN

🙏 God, I want my life to be lived for Your glory. In moments where it is difficult for me to surrender my plans to You, please help me to focus on Your vision for the future. In Jesus’ name, Amen. ☝️🙌🪄🌻🖤

Faith and opposition

Psalm 61:2 💌

'Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.'

+God is your strength in times of difficulty. Belief in God is not the recipe for an easy life. In fact, the reverse is the case.

+You are likely to face all kinds of opposition. When we feel we're in the midst of a difficult situation, we need to get to the rock that is higher than we are.

+God can change your perspective on a complex situation that we’re facing today. And there may be a situation, even today, where God can give you fresh revelation.

🙏 Lord, thank you for the power of your word to change lives. Help me not to be discouraged by the disappointments but to keep on sowing the seed.

+Thank you for the great joy there is when we see seed take root in a person’s life and produce a crop a hundred times what was sown. ☝️🙌🪄🌻🖤

Prayer 🍃

🙏 Father God, You are so good to me! I don’t have to look very far to see evidence of Your goodness in my life.

+Even in the midst of hard situations, You show Yourself faithful, just, ever-present, and trustworthy.

+I have seen that You are good because I have cried out to You for help, and You have saved me. Blessed be Your name! In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻💚
