My Morning Prayer; You Are Blessed with the Holy Spirit

 My Morning Prayer; You Are Blessed with the Holy Spirit

You Are Blessed with the Holy Spirit
-Roy Lessin
 
When you come to God in times of personal dryness or when you are in need of help or healing, you will find His loving hand pouring out the anointing oil of His Spirit upon you—comforting, refreshing, and filling you. His oil heals and soothes, calms and relieves, and causes His face to shine upon you. 

You anoint my head with oil (Psalm 23:5 NKJV).

My Morning Prayer
-Marina Bromley

Thank You Lord for being with me in the midst of every day. My trials, difficulties, pain, doubt...You are with me in all of it. Thank You for Your loving hand pouring out an anointing oil of Your Spirit. Thank You for comforting, refreshing and filling me. I need a fresh Word from You, and little bit more than I needed yesterday. I need to be healed, soothed, calmed and relieved. I want to see and feel Your face shining upon me. Lord Jesus, let it be so! In Your name I pray. Amen.

Timely Tidbits of Truth 35
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

When you’re in a low place 
God will either bring you to the mountain top,
or bring the mountain top to you! 
 
Every valley shall be exalted,
And every mountain brought low! (Isaiah 40:4)

Jesus, Our Only Option Part 1

Jesus, Our Only Option Part 1
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

When you desire cold cereal for breakfast you can go to the grocery store and walk down an aisle that is stocked, from top to bottom, with every kind of cereal your taste buds could crave. If you want to buy a new house you can spend weeks or even months house hunting and considering all the choices that are available to you.

Even though we like variety and are thankful for all the options that present themselves to us in life, there are times when the options before us bring frustration and confusion. We want to get the best value and make the best choice. Often, we seek out reviews and the opinions of others before we make our decisions.

Clearly some choices are much more important than others. It is one thing to decide which box of cereal to eat; it is quite another thing to decide which college to attend, which career to pursue, or which person to marry. Thankfully, when it comes to the most important decision in life, God has made it very simple for us. He does not present to us a “supermarket” of spiritual paths that we may choose in order to know and follow Him. He does not say to us, “Go down this aisle and look over all the spiritual options I have given you and then pick the one that suits you best.”
 
Our decision to know and follow God is so important that He has presented us with only one option. Every road sign God has made points to one person; every message God has spoken proclaims one name; every view God shows us of Himself reveals one face.

In this moment, for you, Jesus Christ is God’s only option.

Jesus said to him, I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by (through) Me (John 14:6 AMP).

My Morning Prayer; You Have So Much Going for You

My Morning Prayer; You Have So Much Going for You
-Roy Lessin and Marina Bromley

You Have So Much Going for You
-Roy Lessin
 
Even though you may have a lot of things that come against you, you have so much more going for you. While your enemies try to rob you of your joy, God spreads a lavish table before you filled with spiritual blessings of goodness, kindness, and love. As you come to Him in prayer you find a table your soul can delight in…your faith can feast upon…and your heart can rejoice in. His table is never empty.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies (Psalm 23:5 AMPC).

My Morning Prayer
-Marina Bromley

My sweet, heavenly Father, You are my everything. My all in all. I need You more than the air I breathe. Thank You for choosing me to be a part of Your family, for loving me first, for inviting me to Your feasting table. I'm humbled by Your goodness and mercies that You give me new every morning. Thank You. As I come to You this morning may I feast on the blessings of kindness, goodness and love. As I sit and pray at Your table now may I delight in You, feast with You, and rejoice in You. I want to be glorified in You, satisfied in You, and rest in all You are doing in my life today. You are my Lord and Savior, and I worship You. In Jesus's name, amen.

A Supernatural Day!
 
Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think (Ephesians 3:20 NLT).
