Good morning Dear Friends in Christ,
I really believe you are doing well in Christ! And, also, no doubt at some point in your life you have, or will face something in your life that leaves you questioning; why? what? and leaves you scratching your head wondering, “what in the world is going on?” This is why I am sharing this today, because when understanding comes, it is by sheer grace; and we are family, so I will share what I have learned to both encourage you in your faith, and challenge you to walk by faith! Do what God’s Word instructs you, when the Holy Spirit is your inspiration!
We can’t do in the human; what God can do in the spiritual!
We can’t do in the human; what God can do in the spiritual! Don’t wrestle with the spiritual influences in this world! Over-Power them by prayer and supplication! Believe and grow in your understanding, what is it that we are to be praying for.
Father, give us this day our daily bread. Jesus you are all that we need! Thank you for the Peace, Joy and Wisdom that you have imparted to us as a free gift! Let us not take that gift, but rather receive that grace through and by your Name alone; and with Praise and Thanksgiving, so that Father we can serve you, by serving those you love! Jesus you are wonderful! And, Father, thank you for loving us so much that you have given us your Son, Grace, through and by Jesus and we receive to believe; and now we ask for your daily Word for Today that we may be filled and prepared for your blessings to flow through us, because we believe and understand that you have a method for us and you will reveal to us how to respond to darkness by light.
Father, may the eyes of the one reading this be opened to comprehend and understand how deep is the love you have for them. May they see into the eyes of Jesus the depth of God’s love for them.
I have a letter for you, but for now, Today’s Devotion.

Daily Devotion to God’s Holy Word.
Can We Amaze Jesus Today? By Karen Rowe
If a child asked his dad for a bicycle on Monday; and his dad said, Yes, we will go on Saturday and I will buy you a bicycle. Doesn’t the child have the bicycle already? Yet, the child won’t see the bicycle until Saturday.
God promises us great things too that are blessings ALREADY SET before us. Yet, does the eagerness in our HUMAN NATURE question God daily?
PRAISE God BY your faith in a GOOD FATHER’S promises!
Which is faith? The child who thanks his dad daily for what he trusts to come on Saturday? What about the reverse: A child that continues to beg each day for what is already promised?
Jesus fulfilled every promise to us by God.
What is it that is causing you to doubt that God is willing for you?
“Jesus reached out and touched him. “I am willing,” he said. “Be healed!” And instantly the leprosy disappeared.
Now check out this faith!
“Jesus said, “I will come and heal him.” BUT THE OFFICER SAID, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed. I KNOW THIS BECAUSE (he understood authority) I am under the AUTHORITY of my superior officers, AND I have AUTHORITY over my soldiers. I ONLY NEED TO SAY, ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come,’ and they come. And if I say to my slaves, ‘Do this,’ they do it.”
When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. Turning to those who were following him, he said, “I tell you the truth, I haven’t seen faith like this in all Israel!
THEN JESUS SAID to the Roman officer, “Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened.” AND the young servant was healed that same hour.
Matthew 8:3, 7-10, 13 NLT
He asked BECAUSE HE BELIEVED & he knew BECAUSE HE UNDERSTOOD authority!
What is it to both be both UNDER the AUTHORITY of Jesus, “our Superior Officer” (Saviour & Lord) to be transformed? AND, to pray & walk IN HIS Holy Spirit AUTHORITY that is over all things against Christ?
Christ came for THE forgiveness of THE sin CONDITION! We don’t have to ask over & over. INSTEAD PRAISE God for the life Jesus died & rose again to give you! Thank Him and ask Him where to begin again.
Jesus is the spiritual clothing God gave for your condition!
JESUS DEEPLY LOVES YOU!
Holy Spirit encourage the readers today. Lift our minds higher to God’s Thoughts. Bless those who will receive. And, keep molding our hearts to be always ready to bloom for the glory of God to be a blessing to us all.
Love in Christ,
