Christian Reflection and Prayer

"Road of Ministry"

'As you travel this special road of ministry, may the Spirit
of God surround you.
Always remember that the Lord has promised to be there,
whether you are in a valley or on top of a mountain.
His hand will guide and protect you from harm, as long as you
stay close to His side.
If you should get ahead of Him, He will humble you. If you
should falter He will encourage you.
His grace will be sufficient for you to carry out the ministry He
has annointed you to walk in. His blessings will follow you
wherever you go.'

God Loves you and so do I

Scripture:

"And you will be hated by all account of My name, But it is the
one who has endured to the end who will be saved. But
whenever they persecute you in this city, flee to the next.
For truly I say to you, you shall not finish going through the
cities of Israel, until the son of man comes". (Matthew 10: 22,23)

Reflection:

Have you ever been hated by someone else I mean this person
really hated you. It could have been anything, maybe something
you said or did, that caused this hatred. It is a terrible feeling to be
the object of hate and intollerence, just ask the person of color whats
it like to be hated. But to be hated for your beliefs, for your faith, now
thats real hate. When I became a Christian I felt that hatred several
times, especially from former friends who hated the change they saw
in me. You see they were hating something they could not understand,
something they could not explain. All that hate came out on me. But
the more hatred I felt, the more persecution I experienced, the stronger
my faith became. QUESTION: HOW STRONG IS YOUR FAITH?

Prayer:

Thank you lord for your love and grace. Thank you that faith grows
stronger everyday. I pray for those who hate and persecute me.
Let that hate become love, the kind of love that is only found through
Your Son Jesus. THANK YOU GOD FOR BEING GOD

Scripture:

"This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent...
They said to Him, "What sign will you perform?" (John 6: 29,30)

Reflection:

It has always been fascinating to me that people who question the existence of god seem to
always want proof. I think they mentally make a list of things that God needs to do to prove
Himself. Whats sad about all this is that they can't seem to see all the wonderful things God
has already done for them . Even the people who followed Jesus and witnessed His miracles
asked for more and more proof , they were never satisfied. I have a suggestion, instead of
waiting for God to do that one thing that you demand of Him to prove Himself. Why don't
you take a look at what He has already done! I know I do and it makes a whole lot of
difference in my life.

Prayer:

Oh mighty God, I need no proof of you existence because Your grace is constantly
at work in my life. Help me to be ever mindful of Your presence and to always seek
Your guidance in my life. I praise You and honor You! THANK YOU GOD FOR
BEING GOD. In Jesus name amen.
