Oh Lord, I love You and treasure every moment I have to be with You. The moment I was baptized is when the fire of the Holy Spirit entered me those many years ago, and it has not subsided yet. This was because You wanted to do more than be a part of my life, but to light it up also. There was so much darkness in me in times past, before I gave my life to You. I was on the road to destruction because of my lust, which caused me to commit adultery, fornications, and be addicted to pornography. Surely, I was a slave to sin for most of my life. It wasn’t until I humbled myself and cried out to You in prayer and forgiving me. Something has changed within me. You saw my intentions were real and that I desired to be transformed, and then started a wonderful work in me. Thank You for hearing my prayers and for doing something that I never thought was possible. I thought I was supposed to live a life where I have no control over my flesh, but just feel guilty each time I sin. However, everything is different now. You have put in me a hedge of protection and a sword of faith. I have armor in my life now, and it is because You are with me. My guard is no longer down but raised up to fight against the enemy at all costs. Surely, I did not know how to defeat my addictions and bad habits, but with the Holy Spirit in me, my desires are for You now and not against you. Therefore, I can withstand evil temptations that the devil throws at me, for You are with me. I am not a perfect person, but a person who loves You and wants to only do Your will at all times. Therefore, keep leading me on Your righteous path. I am incapable of walking it on my own. I love You, Lord. You are the way the truth and life. Therefore, I will follow You until the end of my days. Amen.

John 8:24-26
John 8:24-26 (KJV)
24 I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.
25 Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.
26 I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.

Today’s Prayer (07/30/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will really start thinking about who they are for You before they start doing things for the sake of their own flesh and the world. Too many people’s hearts are filthy and tarnished because of the things of this world, and they don’t even realize it. They don’t realize how much time they are wasting watching so much TV. Most of them are shows and TV that You would not watch with them, but still, they allow the world to fill them up with such wicked and vial things. Such things dishonor You and lead people to live in darkness, which goes against the light You give us. Even the video games people are playing on their phones and consoles are time wasters and very evil at that. These things have put the enemies clutches into people, that they have a hard time finding time to read the Bible and to pray. Lord, please wake these people up to know You before it is too late. Don’t they realize that the worldly songs they listen to are also killing any relationship they once had with You? Surely, what people put their trust in is either going to save their souls from hell and lead them to heaven or lead them to hell, where there is only destruction and pain. Jesus, I pray that people will turn from their sins and cry out to You for forgiveness. The evils in this world will not stop before Your coming, but the evil and vial things in our own lives can. We just need to start looking to You in real faith that actually produces good works. This will lead us to live a life pleasing in Your sight. What we need is more of You and less of us in our lives. We need Your holiness to take over our hearts, that we may live up to Your standards and not the worlds. I rejoice just to know You. You make me glad. I am so happy because You have saved me from my sins. I love You, Jesus. Never let go of my hand. Amen.
Psalm 51:8-12
Psalm 51:8-12 (KJV)
8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.
9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.
11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.
12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.

Today’s Prayer (07/29/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that more people who are on the path of destruction will stop in their tracks and follow You instead. Way too many people are headed to hell and don’t even realize, and I am afraid for their souls. I do not wish to hear of anyone I know and love to go to this place of torment when they die, but I cannot force their hand. I wish people would hear the words that You have put in my mouth, but too many people are slow to hear or have closed up entirely to what I have to share with them about You, Jesus. There is still hope for anyone that has breath in this life still, but people must humble themselves and come unto You fully to be saved. People cannot be partially for You and partially for the things of this world. Instead, people need to make a choice to follow You completely. Only then can You do a work in their lives and save their souls from destruction. Your ways are holy, righteous, pure, and also just. Nothing done in the flesh that is evil can go unpunished, lest people repent and turn to You in their sins. Then, can you rescue them, that they do not have to go through the torments that await them. Lord, I wish to see more people be saved and go to heaven. Surely, any person who could see heaven would no longer desire to be on their destructive path any longer but turn to You instead. There would surely be a three hundred and sixty-degree turn to following You. Lord, what I do not understand is how people can rationalize their sinful ways and still think they are saved and going to heaven. Don’t people realize that Your kingdom is pure and our sinful actions are not allowed there? Therefore, what people desire in this life, will they desire in the next. So they will not be allowed in heaven. It is my prayer that people will wake up to their sins, that they may repent and turn to You for salvation. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Inspiration (07/29/2020)
Hell is real and most people are heading there. Only by turning to Jesus in all humility can a person be saved from destruction.
Hell And The Destruction Thereof
Most people go to hell when they die. This is a place of torment and far worse than anything we could ever image. The pain is never ending.
Job 25:4-6
Job 25:4-6 (KJV)
4 How then can man be justified with God? or how can he be clean that is born of a woman?
5 Behold even to the moon, and it shineth not; yea, the stars are not pure in his sight.
6 How much less man, that is a worm? and the son of man, which is a worm?
Today’s Prayer (07/28/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will understand the need to get right with You even after baptism. That they will know the importance of repentance and not just live their own life of sin. I am afraid that too many people who say they are believers are really on the road to destruction and hell when they die because of their unwillingness to repent. Too many people are caught up in very wicked things of this world like pornography, fornication, adultery, homosexuality, drinking to get drunk, idolatry, lust, covetousness, and the sin of unforgiveness and more. Truly, the devil has a stronghold upon people of this age and they don’t even realize it. His clutches are driven in so deep that He has caused people to be blinded to their sins, that they are now justified in their own sight. But how can this be, God? Don’t people realize that their bodies are Your temples and that You are a holy and just God? That no unclean person can enter Your kingdom above? We cannot be made clean on our own, but only be washed by Your blood, Jesus. I know that You are my Redeemer and Lord of my life. I can only be made clean by what You did for me on the cross. Therefore, I submit myself to You daily in repentance, that I may be washed from any sins that I have committed. I accept that some things I did were very wrong and I am very sorry. It is my hope that I will not continue to willfully sin, but if I fall into sin, that I will come running to You for forgiveness. Only You can give me clean hands and a pure heart. So please continue to do a work in me and guide me on Your path of righteousness. I wish to go to heaven someday but know that only You can lead me there, God. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Inspiration (07/28/2020)

Today’s Prayer (07/27/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that we, as believers, will be ready for Your return. I know that last night You opened my eyes to Your Second Coming and also the rapture in a dream, of which I am still amazed by. That vision has left me in awe just thinking of what took place. And I am so grateful to have been among those people who were being raptured up with You in the clouds. What this means is that my life was in right standing with You at this time of my life. So praise God that I continued in the faith until this day. Lord, all I desire is to be with You in heaven. I know that many times I do fall, but right afterward You pick me back up again. Sure, if I continued going down that sinful and proud track, I would not be ready for Your return. Instead, I would be where most everyone else was in my dream and that was in a state of shock and fear. But Lord, even though I was happy about Your return, I needed to also know that my wife and children were saved. That is why we prayed together in the dream that You would receive us all. Now, since the dream ended before I came to realize this or not, I pray that it will become a reality for my wife and my kids of being raptured up on that day. I would feel terrible if they were left behind with the wicked. So Lord, continue to be with us all until Your return. Help me to lead my family by example. My only desire is to see more people be saved, especially those people who are closest to me like my family. I pray that they will humble themselves before You and begin to look to You in faith. Then, can they also be washed by Your blood and be saved. Lord, I love You. You are my greatest joy of all. I give you praise and glory. Amen.
1 Thessalonians 4:16,17
1 Thessalonians 4:16,17 (KJV)
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

My Rapture Dream
God opened up my eyes to see His Second Coming in a dream. It was then that the rapture began for His elect.
Today’s Prayer (07/26/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will discover You and find themselves in Your light. Too many people are living in the darkness and don’t even know it. They need rescuing and have no clue of the destruction ahead of them. Therefore, take these people who are ready and lead them by the hand. Bring good Christian people into their lives, that they may discover what following You really means. What I am seeing in this world are too many bad examples of what Christianity is supposed to be like. And now I know, Lord, why this is happening. Just as You can see every wicked and vial deeds from heaven, I can also see this in people all around me. Being in Your light helps me to know what is righteous and what is wicked. I can see every worker of iniquity and every worker of righteousness. And what is sad, is that I am not seeing very many people doing Your will, but are working for the devil instead. Unfortunately, he has his clutches in the majority of people today, including many so-called Christians. Because people do not live their whole lives for You, but only strive to one day of the week at church, we see people of the world and not in Your light. So, Lord, I pray that people of all ages, countries, and tongues, will finally understand the need for repentance. Then, will they finally be washed by Your blood and have no more desire to willfully sin. Because the Holy Spirit will be in them now, they will cling to what is for You and not against You. Truly, Your ways are holy, and as believers, we are to keep them holy in our lives daily. How could I desire to be saved if I still want to sin and be of the world? This goes against Your will and what we will not see in heaven. So Lord, keep me in Your light. Help me to be Your witness to this lost generation. I love You. Amen.
Job 24:13-15
Job 24:13-15 (KJV)
13 They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.
14 The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.
15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.

Today’s Prayer (07/25/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that we will all remember our calling as Your followers. That people in all the world who trust you will know that we are different than the world. You have raised us up from our slumber and we are now alive in You, God. Because You have taken us out of a life of sin, we are able to serve You with all our hearts. There is nothing left that is coming before You, for the Holy Spirit is in us now. I am so grateful to be saved and to be placed on Your righteous path that leads to heaven. However, God, I fear that too many people that say they believe in You are really hypocrites, where their two feet are in the world and not for You. Lord, these people still need a wake-up call and I pray that it happens in life and not in death. I wish to see more people be saved and obtain eternal life. I just can’t push these people to make the right choice in life, but only they can. So Lord, I just pray that more people that are true to the faith will be an example to them. That they will see You in us and also desire to follow You completely. I trust in You, Lord. I love You. Amen.

A True Christian In God’s Eyes
It is time to exam ourselves to see if we are in the faith or not. This is under God’s standards and not our own.
Today’s Prayer (07/24/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that You will ever be with me. When I rise from sleep, pick me up with Your mighty hands. Raise me up into newness of life and wash me clean through Your blood. Help me to know You even better than the day before. May I live every new day for You and not myself. Help me to gain Your wisdom as I look to the Bible and study it daily. Hear my prayers and know that I am sincere in all my questions asked. I truly need answers to things in life that I am struggling with. If it is a sickness that is plaguing my life, marriage issues, job-related issues, family issues, sin, or other trials I am facing, I need Your help. Help me to fight the good fight and never give up. Build me up in Your armor, that I might not fall. I know that You are there listening to this prayer right now, and I give You thanks. I rejoice just to know that You are there for me, and I do not have to worry about ever being alone again. Sometimes I don’t understand things until I lower myself down a little in humility. Then, can I see Your love all around me. Even the things I own and am blessed with are all from You. You have not left me comfortless, but is near me when I need You most. I am loved by my Father in heaven and by Jesus, my Lord. You are my God and I honor You. All blessings and honor to the God who saves. Lord, lead me to people in need. Help me to shine my light for all people to see. I wish to have people see You in me. If people can only see my actions and not Yours than I have failed You. You are my only hope and I pray that more people will come to You and be saved because of Your great example in me. I love You, Lord. I give You praise and bless Your holy Name. Amen.

Today’s Inspiration (07/24/2020)
When we feel God is distant, do more than pray and read the Bible daily, but also go out of your comfort zone to bless others.
