Saturday's Stop and Reflect ~ Psalms 1

Image
This Week's Scripture September 2 - September 8, 2012 Nuggets of Reflection: Being prosperous and in good health are part of our salvation/benefit package in Christ. When you discipline your body, you can be at your very best for God's service. You can do more for God, if you are a healthy vessel. You can't experience true prosperity until you have God in your life. Before you can have prosperity, you must have a priority. And that priority has to be God. We are to appreciate what we HAVE....not whine and complain about what we HAVE NOT.   Psalms 1 Blessed is the man Who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, Nor stands in the path of sinners, Nor sits in the seat of the scornful; But his delight is in the law of the Lord, And in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree Planted by the rivers of water, That brings forth its fruit in its season, Whose leaf also shall not wither; And whatever he ...

Feel Free Friday ~ Praise God for What You Have Now

Image
Besides Sunday, I think Friday is one my favorite day of the week!! Friday is the beginning of either a fun, relaxing, or exciting weekend. Whatever the case may be, it's your weekend so take it all in and enjoy every minute of it. For Feel Free Friday, I want you to feel free to praise and thank Jesus for having good health and prosperity. Even if you are not as healthy and/or as propserous as you would like to be, confess them into existence by faith and in the name of Jesus. We are to appreciate what we HAVE....not whine and complain about what we HAVE NOT. Count it all joy from the smallest to biggest blessings because there are more to come. The blessings of God are never ending. Picture by: Inspiring Short Stories via Toia on Pinterest

Wisdom Word Wednesday ~ Prosper

Image
Happy Hump-Day!! Our themed scripture for this week is 3 John 2. For this Wisdom Word Wednesday, the word is prosper. Sometimes people tend to look at prosperity through materialistic things. But prosperity is three-fold.  However, you can't experience true prosperity until you have God in your life. Before you can have prosperity, you must have a priority. And that priority has to be God. A relationship with God must come before any and everything else. "But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you," (Matthew 6:33).   When you put God first, everything else we need or may want follows. Prosper means to help on the road or succeed in reaching whatever you set out to accomplish. There is no doubt that God wants His children to prosper. "However, prosperity should not be the end in itself. It ought to be the result of a quality of life, commitment, dedication, and action ...

Tuesday's Prayer ~ Good Health and Prosperity in All Areas

Image
Dear Heavenly Father, I am blessed to have you as the head of my life. It is your grace and mercy that empower me everyday. You are always there when I need you most. Your timing is always perfect. When I am going through, I realize so often that you are my Source. You are my King. You are my Rock. You are the song that serenades daily in my heart. I love you God with all my mind, heart, and soul. I know that you didn't make me to be perfect. However, I do strive to be pleasing in Your sight by living a life according to Your word. I know that is Your will for me to be in good health and prosper in all three areas of my life, spiritually, mentally, and physically. For those you are not feeling prosperous and/or healthy in one or all areas of their life, I pray that You will send a word or someone their way to encourage them to seek You for guidance in the name of Jesus. My desire is to draw close to You and be the woman of God You purposed for me to be. ...

Manic Monday ~ Health

Image
Happy Labor Day!! I hope everyone have a safe one. Relax and Enjoy!! For today's Manic Monday, we are going to talk about health. To recap, our themed scripture for the week it's, "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper and be in health, just as your soul prospers, (3 John 2). health - [Greek Word:hugiano; Strong's#5198] - Compare to hygiene....to be sound in body, in good health   God is concerned about our bodies just as much as He is for our souls.  Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. It is where the trinity lives. We should not disregard our physical bodies, but we must be a good steward over it. This where we don't overindulged. However, we can pray for self-control. Exercising and being mindful of what what and how much we eat is good way to discipline our bodies. When you discipline your body, you can be at your very best for God's service. You can do more for God, if you are a healthy vessel. " Or do you not know ...

Sunday's Scripture Reading ~ 3 John 2

Image
It's the beginning of a new week. I pray everyone is enjoying their three-day weekend. Mine is going good. My family and I haven't plan anything spectacular for the weekend. But, that's fine with me. I think it's all about your perspective.  Just because we don't have anything in particular planned for our 3-day weekend, that doesn't mean we are not enjoying ourselves. I am just thankful and praise God that my children and husband are in good health. With that being said, it's time for another Scripture Sunday Reading. And our theme scripture for the week is 3 john 2. "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers." Being prosperous and in good health are part of our salvation/benefit package in Christ. People tend to look at prosperity from so many angles as well as what it means to be in good health. We are going to explore 3 John 2 and see what God wants us...
