Oh Lord, I am so grateful to know that You have come to save us from our sins. Thank You Lord. Thank You for Your mercy and grace. The people looked to a Messiah and You fulfilled their every wish. The Lord, whom they praised and adored did come. You are our Savior and Lord. I know that my salvation relies upon You. For You are the Mighty God, who saves. No one else has the power to save us. My heart and soul relies on You, my Wonderful Counselor. You are my Everlasting Father and I am so grateful to be allowed into Your fold. You are my God and I am Your son. Have Your way in my life, Lord. Lead me and guide me. Give me the counsel I need, in order to do what is right. Help me fight against temptation that I may be more than a conqueror. Usher in Your peace into my life and the lives of my family and friends. May Your light shine down upon me that I may go forth and be Your witness. I will go and do as You command. You are the light of my life and only You can bring me the happiness and joy that I need. I love You God. Amen.

Today’s Inspiration (11/29/2018)
Hell is real and is taking in a lot of people each day. Without Jesus in one’s life, a person is destined to a place of torment.
Isaiah 5:13,14
Isaiah 5:13,14 (KJV)
13 Therefore my people are gone into captivity, because they have no knowledge: and their honourable men are famished, and their multitude dried up with thirst.
14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.
Today’s Prayer (11/29/2018)
Oh Lord, our mighty God, I know You are there. You are all powerful and can do all things. Nothing can stop your judgements, wrath or punishments. This is inevitable for anyone that disregards Your commands. To live our own life and disregard You and Your counsels for our life is setting us up for hell. I know that without You there is only torment and pain. Shame and guilt is the consequence of disobeying Your will. Therefore, I have learned from my mistakes and I do not wish to do my own thing anymore. When I was foolish and blatantly sinned, I felt your wrath upon me. I have felt Your torments and I do not wish to go down that road again. To anyone that is in this mess now, pierce their hearts and minds, Lord. I pray that they will be ready to change their life today. Whatever is holding them back, take it all away. Break every chain of addiction from their lives. Lead them away from the darkness and into Your light. It is so beautiful to be here in Your presence. I am safe, for Your peace surrounds me. Your love has changed my wicked heart. Thank You for Your forgiveness and mercy. You are so amazing God. I love You. Amen.
The Lord’s Vineyard
As the people of God did not obey His counsel, God’s wrath and judgements were upon their shoulders.
Today’s Inspiration (11/28/2018)
To continually drink wine and other strong alcoholic drinks is not the will of God. To follow after these things is wrong.
Isaiah 5:22-24
Isaiah 5:22-24 (KJV)
22 Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink:
23 Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!
24 Therefore as the fire devoureth the stubble, and the flame consumeth the chaff, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust: because they have cast away the law of the Lord of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
Isaiah 5:11,12
Isaiah 5:11,12 (KJV)
11 Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that continue until night, till wine inflame them!
12 And the harp, and the viol, the tabret, and pipe, and wine, are in their feasts: but they regard not the work of the Lord, neither consider the operation of his hands.
Today’s Prayer (11/28/2018)
Lord God, thank You for helping me stay far away from alcohol. I have seen alcohol kill marriages and tear families apart and I am so happy that You have helped me steer clear from this. However, I know that many people in this world are caught up in drinking. Even so-called Christians are in this mess. My heart breaks for these people and I pray that they will turn from their sins and repent today. I know that Your mercy is for those that allow You to change their lives. However, I also know that Your wrath is real and these people that follow in their sins till death will be smitten. With Your presence in my life I know that following Your will is the most important thing ever. It is wicked to live by our wants and desires and leave You out of the picture. Calling evil good is never good and this almost destroyed my life, as You know God. If I had not called Your Name in prayer those many years ago, my life would be in shambles and I’d probably be dead and suffering in hell right now. I know that Your mercy endures forever but I also know that Your judgements are for real. Thank You for leading me out of a life of sin and into Your love. Thank You for Your forgiveness. I am so grateful to be on Your path and straightway to heaven. I want to be with You Lord. You are my light and my strength. Take my life and do as You please. I love You more. Amen.
Drinking Wine And Strong Drinks
If you are among such people that are known for drinking wine and other strong alcoholic drinks, then beware for your soul, for it is at stake.
Colossians 1:19,20
Colossians 1:19,20 (KJV)
19 For it pleased the Father that in him should all fulness dwell;
20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
Today’s Inspiration #2 (11/27/2018)
The blood of Jesus can cleanse us from all sins. Come unto Him and your heart and mind will be healed.
Today’s Inspiration #1 (11/27/2018)
Giving our lives to Jesus is the best thing we can possibly do in this life. For only the Lord Jesus saves.
Today’s Inspiration #2 (11/26/2018)
If there are no works of God in your life, then your faith is dead. Allow the Lord to work through you and there will be fruit.
Today’s Inspiration #1 (11/26/2018)
Works show that our faith is alive and not dead. These are fruits from God and not what we can do on our own.
Today’s Prayer (11/26/2018)
Oh Lord, may the importance of true faith be in the heart of every Christian. I know that in the day we live in that works have been downplayed as faith is elevated. Where faith plus works should be taught, it is not. I pray that people will re-read what You have said about believing in You and then doing greater works. I know that You have done so many great things in my life and I give You all the glory. Your servant James also spoke about faith plus works, but his words are also set aside and not realized. Lord, this leaves us with so many empty people in this world. Without Your works inside of us, we are truly dead. Without Your fruits, we are not serving You but our own will. I pray that You will prick people’s hearts that they will repent and trust in You, Jesus, starting today. May there be a change of heart and soul take place. May their faith be revived, that You may start working through them. I know that You have so many great things to do inside of us, if we but listen to the Holy Spirit. If our hearts were just open, You could do so much good in our lives. We need You Lord. Our faith is dead without You. I trust in You God. I love You. Amen.
Faith Plus Works
It is God that would move us to love one another as He loves us. Without such love in our lives, there Is no true faith.
James 2:14-17
James 2:14-17 (KJV)
14 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
15 If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
16 And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
John 14:12,13
John 14:12,13 (KJV)
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
Hebrews 13:5,6
Hebrews 13:5,6 (KJV)
5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
Today’s Inspiration (11/25/2018)
