A prayer of humility and desire.

Ps 86:11  Teach me your way, Lord,  that I may rely on your faithfulness give me an undivided heart,  that I may fear your name. A prayer of humility and desire.  A desire to become more like Christ each day and the humility to say you have not arrived.  Let nothing divide your heart!  We give weight and space to that which will divide our hearts daily.  What are you giving space too?  Repent of it and press on!  Approach each day know you can grow and become more like Christ.  Receive the conviction, repent of the stuff you allow to divided your heart and continue the race!!

Your ever day decisions display what you are drawing near.

PS 73:28 But as for me, how good it is to be near God! I have made the Sovereign LORD my shelter, and I will tell everyone about the wonderful things you do. How good it is to be near to God!  The culture will pull you; the world will guide you but the Lord will be with you.  Grow in the discipline to place yourself near the Lord over the world.  Where do you spend your time, what do you watch, what do you listen to?  Draw near to the Lord not the world.  Your ever day decisions display what you are drawing near.  Keep growing in the discipline that drives you closer to the Lord daily.  Then never stop speaking about all the Lord is doing in your life, through your life and around you.  Boost in the Lord daily!!

You pay attention to that which matters most to you.

Never allow the wind of people or the wind of culture to blow out what God lit!!

PS 18:28 “You, Lord keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. Never allow the wind of people or the wind of culture to blow out what God lit!! Darkness comes and the wind of life will blow but through the darkest days and most turbulent times the Lord will keep your lamp burning just stay close to Him!! Don’t let the darkness control in your life what God has control of. Always chose light over darkness. Hang with those running towards the light not the darkness, to stay away from the darkness. Always a positive thought over a negative thought. Always trust, no matter the turbulence, that God will get you through. Always know and chose to accept that the Lord WILL KEEP YOUR LIGHT BURNING.

Life is full of walls and battles just never forget WITH GOD YOU CAN!

God does not keep you from facing walls or giants; but with Him there is not a wall you can't scale or a giant you can't kill!!

A psalm of David celebrating being rescued from all the enemies of Saul. The man who was supposed to be King and yet became a fugitive. Through the valleys he stayed faithful!!! 2 Samuel 22:22-28 For I have kept the ways of the Lord; I have not turned from my God to follow evil. 23 I have followed all his regulations; I have never abandoned his decrees. 24 I am blameless before God; I have kept myself from sin. 25 The Lord rewarded me for doing right. He has seen my innocence. 26 “To the faithful you show yourself faithful; to those with integrity you show integrity. 27 To the pure you show yourself pure, but to the crooked you show yourself shrewd. 28 You rescue the humble, but your eyes watch the proud and humiliate them. A God honoring life is not a "when I feel like it" or "when it is cool" choice. It is a life of daily surrender that says no matter what today I will praise Him and live out my faith!! Always say... 2 Samuel 22: 29-30 O Lord, you are my lamp. The Lord lights up my darkness. 30 In your strength I can crush an army; with my God I can scale any wall. He does not keep you out of darkness, but He does light it up! He does not keep you out of battle but with His strength you win. He does not keep you from facing walls/giants; but with Him there is not a wall you can't scale or a giant you can't kill!! Go and live like a Kingdome influencer where ever you find yourself today!!!
