Our Accessible King

Jesus is the King of the Universe whom we can access at any given time. All we need to do is to come to Him at all times! If we want to access earthly kings, leaders, and priests, we have to go through "red tape" or they will make themselves inaccessible to regular people when it comes to royalty. Not so with Jesus! Our king (the Creator of the Universe) Jesus is accessible to us all the time! Praise the Lord!

Romans 8:15-17 (Amplified Bible) 15For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father! 16The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God. 17And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory

Isaiah 55:2-3 (Amplified Bible) 2Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread, and your earnings for what does not satisfy? Hearken diligently to Me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness [the profuseness of spiritual joy]. 3Incline your ear [submit and consent to the divine will] and come to Me; hear, and your soul will revive; and I will make an everlasting covenant or league with you, even the sure mercy (kindness, goodwill, and compassion) promised to David.

You are with me

Lord, this world is constantly changing. Even my physical body is changing with time. But you promise that you are the same yesterday, today and forever! 
You will be by my side through all eternity.

Hebrews 13:8 (Amplified Bible) Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is [always] the same, yesterday, today, [yes] and forever (to the ages).

Revelation 1:8 (Amplified Bible) I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord God, He Who is and Who was and Who is to come, the Almighty (the Ruler of all).

Psalm 102:24-27 24 (Amplified Bible)I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days, You Whose years continue throughout all generations. 25At the beginning You existed and laid the foundations of the earth; the heavens are the work of Your hands. 26They shall perish, but You shall remain and endure; yes, all of them shall wear out and become old like a garment. Like clothing You shall change them, and they shall be changed and pass away. 27But You remain the same, and Your years shall have no end.

A Prayer for Care


Lord, many times I go to church with a "fake face" telling everyone I'm ok when in reality I'm carrying around a load of guilt, shame, worry, anxiety and condemnation. Please, help me to be honest with You and those who care. You have set me free from the law of sin and death! Thank you Jesus for taking my care.


Philippians 4:4-7 (Amplified Bible) 4 Rejoice in the Lord always [delight, gladden yourselves in Him]; again I say, Rejoice! (A) 5 Let all men know and perceive and recognize your unselfishness (your considerateness, your forbearing spirit). The Lord is near [He is [a] coming soon]. 6 Do not fret or have any anxiety about anything, but in every circumstance and in everything, by prayer and petition ( [b] definite requests), with thanksgiving, continue to make your wants known to God. 7 And God's peace [shall be yours, that [c] tranquil state of a soul assured of its salvation through Christ, and so fearing nothing from God and being content with its earthly lot of whatever sort that is, that peace] which transcends all understanding shall [d] garrison and mount guard over your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

Psalm 103:1-14 [A Psalm] of David. 1 BLESS (AFFECTIONATELY, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul; and all that is [deepest] within me, bless His holy name! 2 Bless (affectionately, gratefully praise) the Lord, O my soul, and forget not [one of] all His benefits--3 Who forgives [every one of] all your iniquities, Who heals [each one of] all your diseases, 4 Who redeems your life from the pit and corruption, Who beautifies, dignifies, and crowns you with loving-kindness and tender mercy; 5 Who satisfies your mouth [your necessity and desire at your personal age and situation] with good so that your youth, renewed, is like the eagle's [strong, overcoming, soaring]! (A) 6 The Lord executes righteousness and justice [not for me only, but] for all who are oppressed. 7 He made known His ways [of righteousness and justice] to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel. 8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and plenteous in mercy and loving-kindness. (B) 9 He will not always chide or be contending, neither will He keep His anger forever or hold a grudge. 10 He has not dealt with us after our sins nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great are His mercy and loving-kindness toward those who reverently and worshipfully fear Him. 12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us. 13 As a father loves and pities his children, so the Lord loves and pities those who fear Him [with reverence, worship, and awe].

Emotional Stability Prayer

"Lord", You have told me in Your Word to press on for the prize that Christ Jesus has called me heavenward, but many times my feelings don't match up to what your promises tell me. Please align my feelings with your heart. Amen!


Philippians 3:12-14 (Amplified Bible) 12 Not that I have now attained [this ideal], or have already been made perfect, but I press on to lay hold of (grasp) and make my own, that for which Christ Jesus (the Messiah) has laid hold of me and made me His own. 13 I do not consider, brethren, that I have captured and made it my own [yet]; but one thing I do [it is my one aspiration]: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the [supreme and heavenly] prize to which God in Christ Jesus is calling us upward.

Prayer for a positive mind

Dear Lord, Your truths are positive and uplifting. Please deliver us from the worlds philosophy that says: "If we don't expect anything to happen we won't be disappointed when it doesn't." Doubt and unbelief wars against our minds! Thank you for setting us free from negative and wrong thinking, delivering us from satan's attacks in this area! In Jesus name, Amen! Based on Matthew 8:13

Matthew 8:13 (Amplified Bible)  Then to the centurion Jesus said, Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed. And the servant boy was restored to health at that very  moment.

My prayer for a peaceful heart

Lord Jesus, in our lives and in this world it’s hard to have peace with so much going on around us. Yet, You have promised us peace no matter the circumstances in our lives or in this world. Thank you for your peace that is greater than this world! Amen.
Peace
John 14:25-27 (AMP)
25 I have told you these things while I am still with you.
26 But the Comforter (Counselor, Helper, Intercessor, Advocate, Strengthener, Standby), the Holy Spirit, Whom the Father will send in My name [in My place, to represent Me and act on My behalf], He will teach you all things. And He will cause you to recall (will remind you of, bring to your remembrance) everything I have told you.
27 Peace I leave with you; My [own] peace I now give and bequeath to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. [Stop allowing yourselves to be agitated and disturbed; and do not permit yourselves to be fearful and intimidated and cowardly and unsettled.]

1 John 4:4 (AMP)
4 Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world.
