Prayer Tool of Writing and Journaling - Pencil

Prayer Tool of Writing and Journaling - Pencil

You see many maintenance workers, repair technicians, electricians, architects, and plumbers with pencils behind their ears. They often have

measurements to write and drawings to produce. A toolbox is not complete without a pencil. The pencil is a physical symbol of writing that is required for your soul to unfold.

Writing is an important part of your soul’s journey. Imagine where society would be if no one wrote down the laws, took notes at meetings, or recorded historical events. The Bible we know today exists because people took the time to write down what they heard from the stories told by their ancestors through multiple generations.

It is not about the quantity of your writing but the quality of your writing. The major prophets required personal scrolls due to the length of their writings. The 12 minor prophets were able to fit all their writings on one scroll. Journal daily about what your thanksgiving, forgiving, and all the ways that you are giving your time, talent, and treasure. Write letters to God, yourself, and others to process your experiences. Even if you never mail the letter, there is a blessing in writing it down.

Write down your long-term goals for your life in addition to the short term goals you desire to accomplish. Break down large projects into smaller bite-size pieces. Writing allows you to review your progress. Documentation empowers you to see how far you have come and how far you still must go.

Like the Spirit told John on the Isle of Patmos, write (Revelation 1:19). Write your dreams and your visions. Write the whispers that you hear from the Holy Spirit and the creative ideas that you receive throughout your day.

  The Kingdom is About Growth (Matthew 13:24-30)   The kingdom is about growth, not condemnation, judgment, sin, abomination, transgression, or iniquity. The kingdom of God is about growth. Jesus said it is like wheat and weeds, or "tares," as some versions say. As you grow, once you plant a seed in the ground, you don’t just get what you get; you also get weeds. As you keep growing, you will outgrow any behavior, any way of being, seeing, thinking, speaking, or acting that is not like God; you will outgrow it. Stop trying to pull up the weeds and keep growing. Stop trying to put people out of your life because some of the people you think are weeds are really wheat, and some of the people you feel are wheat might not be. Just keep growing, and it will automatically separate. Jesus said the growth in the kingdom is like a mustard seed. It starts as the smallest seed, but it’s potent. So do not despise the days of small beginnings; keep growing. Don’t compare yourself to a...
  Are You a People Pleaser (Matthew 14:6) 06 February 2024   Who are you pleasing today? Some of us are people pleasers. We live our entire lives trying to please people, trying to get their approval and validation. We get pleasure out of pleasing other people, and so we do everything looking for people to be pleased with us.   Are you living your life for people, trying to please people? Some of us try to please ourselves, and we forget people. I AM    pleasing myself, and so all our lives are consumed with self-pleasure, and immediate gratification, and so we live our lives pleasing ourselves, or are you pleasing God? Are you living your life with one purpose: to please God? Are you concerned with whether or not God is pleased with you? At the end of the day, when God says well done, thou good and faithful servant, you have been faithful over a few things. I will make you rule over me. That’s what I Am living for.   I am living to please God; I desi...
  I AM a Good Tree and I Bring Forth Good Fruit (Matthew 12:3) I AM a good tree, and I bring forth good fruit. I was created that way. When God made everything, He spoke over the creation and said it was good. When He got to human beings, He said not only were we good, but we were very good. Affirm with me today: I AM a good tree because I was created that way. It doesn’t matter what anybody else says; I was created good. God said I was very good.   Good is the essence of who I AM. Because I AM a good tree, not only was I created that way, but I also continue in that way. My good is a continuation of how I was created. Because I AM a good tree and I was created that way, my way of being is good. The energy and aura that come from me that exudes from me are good because I AM a good tree. How I see people, places, and things is good because I AM a good tree. I can’t help but see the good in God and people because I was created that way, so I continue that way. My way of th...
