Let Him Flow

Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it. Prov. 4:23 (NIV) Lord search our hearts daily, so all that we say and do will reflect you. Heal us from all the hurts and pains that we have been through. Have your way in us as we surrender to your will. Teach us how to rest in you and be open vessels for you to fill. Remove all bitterness and unforgiveness that may be dwelling deep within our hearts. As we trust in you let us never forget to do our part. We seek your face through your word, worship and constant prayer. Let our life show that we walk with a loving God who cares. As we soak in you and absorb your very essence. Let our life reflect as one who has been basking in your presence. Thank you for shining on us with your beautiful glow. As you have poured into us, from within us let it continue to flow. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. Psalm 143:8 (NIV) Bask in the unconditional love of God and place all your trust in Him. Believe that He cares so much for you that He will not lead you in the wrong direction. When looking for the right course to take, allow God to order and direct your steps. The question is, will you go where He guides? Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

The Fruit We Bear

Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. Matt. 3:8 (NIV) Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions. Matt. 7:20 (NIV) We are all a work in progress, but we must be actively striving to produce good fruit in our lives. Take inventory of your emotions and interactions with others and think what does your fruit say about your root? As believers it is important to continue to surrender to God and the work of the Holy Spirit to change us from the inside out. The fruit that we produce is an indicator as to where we are. The good news is, God loves us with an everlasting love, and He is committed to changing our life into the image of His likeness. Today’s prayer is, Lord help us to produce good fruit, so we can be a reflection of you. Let our life be in alignment with the confession of our faith, so we can be at peace within and with others, Amen. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Press Onward

Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. Prov. 4:25 (NIV) Often when we are trying to move forward into a better space, emotionally, financially, spiritually, professionally, personally or overall, it takes a shifting of a mindset. Your focus has to be altered to not be distracted by the things and people that used to easily bait you in the past. In order for change to come the change must first start within you. If forward focus is your goal, then don’t allow yourself to be easily provoked to entertain that which is fruitless. Look straight ahead and keep pressing onward. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Along Your way Encourage Someone Today

May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had. Romans 15:5 (NIV) For every time that you’ve elevated us, help us to uplift others with the same fervor and affection. Let us embrace your agape love and mirror its reflection. Let us embody your image and treat others with the same care you’ve treated us. Show us how to interact with everyone in a way that is inspiring and just. By your power we have been able to endure many hardships and strife. Now it’s our turn to encourage someone else’s life. Let us go and grow together. ADaubon

He holds success in store for the upright, he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless, for he guards the course of the just and protects the way of his faithful ones. Prov. 2:7-8 (NIV) The Lord has blessings in store for you. Keep walking in Godly precepts in all that you do. Get ready to receive all that’s coming your way. Don’t follow anything or anyone that will lead you astray. The path God has for you is full of His grace, favor and protection. He will lovingly guide you in the right direction. Stay rooted in Him, because He will never let go of your hand. Trust Him and HIs divine plan. The shield around you will be an impenetrable stronghold. Follow God with your whole heart as your journey unfolds. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

Desire & Aspire to Serve One Another

God has given each of you a gift from his great variety of spiritual gifts. Use them well to serve one another. 1 Peter 4:10 (NLT) God has gifted each of us with the ability to improve and enhance the life of others. Be intentional about using them to make a difference in someone else’s life. Activate and aim your God given talents to reach others, no matter how big or small. In this season, be open to the limitless ways that God intends to use you. Be willing and ready and trust that God is able to do miraculous things in you and through you; for the betterment of all who He will send across your path. Right where you are, surrender to being a vessel and instrument of God. When you have a heart of service, you will actively search for and desire ways to use your gifts to uplift others. Make a conscious effort and welcome every opportunity to serve one another. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon

A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. John 13:34 (NIV) In this life we are called to love one another from the depths of our heart. Let us not focus on what keeps us apart. May we dare to love without being swayed by false perceptions and ideas of each other. Instead, let us focus on what unites us to one another. Denounce all that divides us and truly love with sincerity. Open your heart in order to love freely. His love forgives all that we have done. Be compelled to pardon others and make every effort to live as one. We have the command, so it’s something that we must do. Say yes to God and let Him love others through you. Let’s go and grow together. ADabuon

Rise!

For those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Luke 14:11 (NLT) It never pays to be haughty and look down on others. Being pretentious and working overtime to be seen, noticed or validated by people to stroke your ego is a slippery slope. Manipulating your way to the top is an easy way to fall to the bottom. Walk in humility and have an inner assurance in who God created you to be and trust that He will elevate you into spaces and places that you never dreamed or imagined. The One who formed you with unique gifts, talents and abilities will create opportunities for you that are in alignment with your ordained purpose and assignment. Always remember, the doors that He opens for you no man can close. Stand firm in your faith, walk in modesty and watch God move. When your heart is in the right place, no matter how hard the enemy tries, you will always rise. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
