Hunger for Jesus

Seek the Lord and His strength; seek His face continually. 1 Chronicles 16:11

In our weakness, the Lord is strong. God has strength for us as we ask. Hunger for Jesus can be fanned into flame. Seeking the Lord’s face is like you just want Him, not only what he can do for us, just for knowing Jesus. Such a hunger that continually is the word, that means momentum and going hard after God.

Lord I hunger for you. Teach me to seek you and your strength Jesus.

Place of respect

Praise the Lord! How blessed is the man who fears the Lord, Who greatly delights in His commandments. Psalm 112:1

Thinking of our schedules, we make time for what is needed. If you live from a place of respect of God, that can even change your priorities and what you have time for. Thankfulness for God that he’s always there. What a blessed life, being able to spend time with Jesus.

Jesus, allowing you to impact every aspect of life. Have your way in my life Lord.

Jesus’ confidence

So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you. Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised. Hebrews 10:35-37

Keep your confidence in Jesus. Believe the Lord is working good as you do God’s will. There is encouragement to have patient endurance to stay in God’s will. Have you ever ran a marathon. You can not sprint the entire way. You need to pace yourself and keep running. When our lives are to serve Jesus, we keep believing and hoping as God’s promises are for real.

Thankyou Jesus, I believe and trust you and seek to serve you.

Being filled

You will receive power and ability when the Holy Spirit comes upon you; and you will be My witnesses [to tell people about Me] both in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and Samaria, and even to the ends of the earth. Acts 1:8

The Holy Spirit empowers believers everyday to shine for Jesus. That ability is from the Holy Spirit. When you ask God for a fresh infilling, don’t be surprised if you become passionate for lives and emboldened to share your faith. God meets us at our expectations.

Jesus thanks for a newness of life in you. Fill me today Holy Spirit, that I can be ready to share the gospel wherever I go.

Hearing Jesus’ voice

Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch. Luke 5:4

The disciples were fishing all night and felt like it was inconceivable that they would have a good catch. God knows. When they put their nets down, they become overwhelmed by the huge catch. What a miracle. Hearing the voice of the Lord can mean miracles for your life. Can you make time for a word in season from Jesus?

Praise you Jesus for your word in good timing. Help me hear your tender voice.

Creator God

The heavens will praise your wonders, O Lord; Your faithfulness also in the congregation of the holy ones. Psalm 89:5

Everyday, it’s almost like God paints the skies in such an original way that you can often find yourself marvelling at who God is. God is great and awesome. When people meet together as the church, God’s faithfulness is on display. What can you praise Jesus for today?

Thanks Lord for the beautiful skies everyday unique. You remind me in that way that you are creator God, incredible and majestic.

Jesus’ name

The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous runs into it and are safe. Proverbs 18:10

Thinking of the name of the Lord, what do you think of ? A place of security and authority. A place to find relief and peace. Gods name means healing, peace, love and refuge. Today, what can you run into the Lord Jesus Christ for, knowing that he is always there?

Jesus thankyou for your name Lord. Help me to go to you with everything I need.

Leaning on Jesus

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13

God doesn’t want us to just survive, he wants us to thrive, whether having abundance or suffering need. Whatever the circumstances, you have Jesus to strengthen you. That’s the real truth, as life has ups and downs, Christ brings stability. You can lean on Jesus everyday.

Thanks Jesus, I lean towards you today knowing you are my peace and you strengthen me.

Generational blessing

He has remembered His covenant forever, The word which He commanded to a thousand generations. Psalm 105:8

Praise Jesus that we get to be a part of a generational blessing from God. Something to pray into is areas that seem empty, where you need that blessing from the Lord. We all want to be fruitful spiritually and that’s what the Lord promises each one of us generationally.

Thanks Jesus for every spiritual blessing. I pray fruitfulness in every aspect of life for your praise God.

Blessed in Jesus

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ. Ephesians 1:3

Wisdom from God

He who gets wisdom loves his own soul; He who keeps understanding will find good. Proverbs 19:8

Wisdom is knowledge with application to life. Thank God that we can ask him for wisdom and He will give us wisdom as we believe. There’s much to learn and grow in wisdom and understanding that makes life better. What is something you can seek God for wisdom in your life today?

Thanks Jesus for help and hope of wisdom and understanding in you Lord.

In Christ we triumph

Now thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 2 Corinthians 2:14

Thank God, we overcome in Christ Jesus. In Christ we triumph, he causes us to triumph. Wherever you are, people are awakened to the knowledge of Jesus. Everything is because of Christ Jesus, all praise to God. Wherever you go today, know that Jesus is with you and his power is working that people would know he is real.

Thanks Jesus, you are the reason we triumph always. Believing for more people to know you are alive.

Exalting Jesus

O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together. Psalm 34:3

Praising the Lord is a natural encouragement for others to praise Jesus as well. The best worship leading we can do is to be an example of worshipping. As we exalt Jesus together there’s a corporate anointing that is such a blessing.

Bless you Lord. Praise you Jesus for who you are.

Presence of God

He makes my feet like hinds feet, and sets me upon my high places. Psalm 18:33

Graceful and precise, able to reach high places. The presence of the Lord carries us and takes us to new places we have yet to have gone. That’s good news if we sometimes feel like awkward. That’s all different close to Jesus. He keeps our feet on the ground and spirit in Christ in heavenly places.

Thanks Jesus, help me know you are leading and guiding my every step to your praise.

Belief from the Word

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. Romans 11:17

Do you remember the first time you heard the gospel? For me, was like the lights being switched on. Was like being born again, a whole new life. Even now, hearing the word of God is still wonderful. I feel like I couldn’t live without the word of God. Belief is from hearing the word of God. What scripture has given you faith of late?

Thanks Jesus for the word of God. Help me have a passion for more of you from scripture everyday.

Hope

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Romans 15:13

When you need hope, go to Jesus. He is the God of hope. That much encouragement is there in the presence of Christ. God wants you to have hope to the extent that you can’t contain the amount of hope. How can you create space for that purpose of being close to Jesus?

Thanks Jesus for your hope and encouragement. Help me make space for you in the everyday.

Progress made

The fear of the Lord is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate. Proverbs 8:13

The fear of the Lord is somewhat of a mystery and there are many promises attached to our fear of the Lord. Praise God for every blessing in following Jesus. He rejoices in the progress that each of us make. There is always more to learn and to grow in respect of God.

Thanks Lord Jesus, help me to have fear of the Lord in every area of my live. Help me grow in you today.

Keep believing

And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; the greatest of these is charity. 1 Corinthians 13:13

Faith, hope and love are the three elements that will remain. Keep believing, and have hope. Faith will be there and love. Excited for believing and hoping and loving. These are like three goals you can have to bless your day.

Thanks Jesus for helping me have faith, hope and love today.

Faithful love

Give thanks to the Lord for He is good! His faithful love endures forever. Psalm 118:1

When gratefulness fills our lives, that is a good place to be. As we give thanks to God, we are reframing our thinking. Gratefulness can help you through a storm. After the verse there is a testimony of the Lord’s help. When you remember what the Lord has done, that can help you overcome in your everyday life. The Lord’s faithful love is forever and always.

Thanks Jesus your faithful love is beautiful. Praise you for all you are Lord.

Great need of the Holy Spirit

I indeed have baptised you with water; he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit. Mark 1:8

Realising your great need of the Holy Spirit, is the beginning of a wonderful happening. Jesus will baptise you with the Holy Spirit. And as we are, we shall be changed and set apart for God. Not just a one off event, everyday is the opportune time to be filled and renewed in the presence of the Lord.

Praise Jesus for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Lord, increase my hunger for you Holy Spirit, in Jesus’ name, amen.
