Father, I thank you

Father, I thank you

“And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, Father, I thank you that you have heard me and I know that you hear me always (John 11:41-42).”

As heirs of God and joints heirs with Christ, you don’t have to beg and plead with God to give you the desires of your heart. “Delight yourself also in the Lord: and God will give you the desires of your heart (Psalm 37:4).” Pray with the understanding of the Father Factor to demonstrate you are entitled to everything that God is and everything God has (Romans 8:17). God granted you total access to your good. It is God’s good pleasure to give you the Kingdom (Luke 12:32). Jehovah desires for you to be happy, healthy, and prosperous; therefore, God freely gives you all things (Romans 8:32). God’s desire for you is Absolute Good (Psalm 84:11). God is not against you; God is for you being your best self and living your best life (Romans 8:31).

According to H. Emile Cady’s Lessons in Truth, “There is no wrong way to pray. Some prayers are limited, and others are unlimited.” Two people can pray for the same thing, a house, and one can pray in a limited manner while the other can pray about it in an unlimited way, full of possibility. The limited prayer says, “Lord, please give me a house. You know I need it for my family and me. I live right. I pay my tithes and give my offerings. Lord, my family is tired of not having our own home. God, I appreciate it if you bless us with a house in Jesus’ name. Amen.”

The unlimited possibility prayer sounds like the prayer that Jesus prayed in today’s scripture, “Father, I thank you, for the house that you already provided for my family and me. Direct me to my perfect house. I know all things in heaven and earth are in proper alignment for me to see the blessing that you have already given us. I put myself in a posture to receive my house. I use my faith to bring my house into natural manifestation. It is so, and so it is, and so I let it be.”

  Why Me? God’s Glory (Romans 8:18) Why? That's a question often in our Souls. Why is this happening to me? Why am I having this experience? Why am I facing this health challenge? There's an answer! Why am I having these relationship challenges? There’s an answer, and it’s the same one. Why am I having this financial challenge? There’s an answer! There’s an answer to every question in your Soul, and the answer is glory. The reason for every experience in your life is so that God can get the glory. The purpose of all our challenges is not to bring us down but to transform us and bring glory to God. Why am I having this test, this trial, this tribulation? So God can get the glory. Why am I experiencing this persecution, this headache, this pain? So, God can get the glory. Why am I witnessing this miracle, sign, or wonder? So, God can get the glory. Why am I having this challenge in my local assembly, in my ministry, in my business, and in my organization? So God can get the...

The Sacred Sunday Posture:  Kneeling “ A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees; if you are willing, you can make me clean (Mark 1:40).” In addition to bowing your heads and closing your eyes, many people learn to “get on your knees and pray.” Often, it’s at night before going to sleep. Parents instruct their children to kneel on the side of the bed and say their prayers. Perhaps you have fond memories of kneeling and reciting the Lord’s Prayer or the 23 rd Psalm. Or maybe you were taught, like me, “Now I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake. I pray the Lord, my soul, to take. God bless mommy, daddy...” Kneeling is a physical way to revere God as your Creator and remember that God is your Source. “Know that it is the Lord, who is God. It is he that has made us and not we ourselves. We are his people and the sheep of his pasture (Psalm 100:3).” Without reverencing and ...

Where Is the Love? Learning to Recognize God's Presence Through Galatians 5

  Where Is the Love?    One of my favorite duets is by Donny Hathaway and Roberta Flack: "Where Is the Love?" It asks, "Where is the love that you said you would give to me?" It's a timeless question and one that’s just as spiritually relevant today.    In Galatians 5 , Paul writes to the churches in Galatia about the contrast between the works of the flesh and the fruit of the Spirit. He helps believers understand how to discern what’s truly of God. And here's the spiritual compass: love is God's signature . "And envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God."   Galatians 5:21 (KSB)    Whatever you do whether it’s cooking a meal or making a major decision ask yourself: "Where is the love?" Is love your motive? Is love present in your tone, your actions, your intentions?  Paul’s letter urges us to determine whether we are operati...
