God’s Word will lead us into the place of His abundant love, joy, and peace, even through difficult situations. When we set our hearts to follow God’s Word, we will find the answers to overcome in this life. It’s all in Jesus, and Jesus is the Word being lived out in the flesh. He showed us how to apply the Word to every part of our lives. “Hear, for I will speak excellent and princely things; and the opening of my lips shall be for right things.” Proverbs 8:6 AMPC May we let Your Word have rulership in our lives, to direct our decisions and desires. May we desire to please You, making You the center of our world, above all else—blessings, as God’s Word releases wisdom to walk victoriously through life. Love you all, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

The Lord desires to wake us up every morning with a Word, to help us through whatever we are facing. When we take time to calm ourselves and wait to hear His Words of wisdom, we can approach each day with His confidence and joy. We can choose to give our attention to God, Who has the answers, or to the problem which will release unrest, worry, and fear. Giving our attention to God’s Wisdom releases His peace and joy in us. “Blessed [happy, prosperous, to be admired] is the man who listens to me, Watching daily at my gates, Waiting at my doorposts.” Proverbs 8:34 AMP Lord, help us to give our undivided attention to Your Word, which releases us into abundant life and victory. We choose to give our attention to You first, to receive Your wise counsel and instruction for each new day. Thank You, Lord, for releasing excitement for Your Word. Blessings, as you receive His instructions for abundance today. Love y’all, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

As the church of Jesus Christ, we have a great responsibility to declare His Kingdom, and will be done on earth, as it is in Heaven. We are not told to declare how things are. 10 of the 12 spies did that, and the Lord called it an evil report. The two who agreed and declared God’s truth eventually entered the promised land. In Christ, God released His authority (keys) to us. Now, it is critically important that we declare God’s Word and not just report what we see, hear, and feel. God’s Word releases us into a victorious, overcoming spirit. Reporting just what we’re seeing and hearing, releases us into a defeated, give-up, victim spirit. Heaven is not in turmoil, defeat, division, or lack. Those are the things we are to be taking authority over and canceling their influence. “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind (declare to be improper and unlawful) on earth must be what is already bound in heaven, and whatever you loose (declare lawful) on earth must be what is already loosed in heaven. [Isa. 22:22.]” Matthew 16:19 AMPC Lord, we declare peace, victory, unity, provision, and protection in CHRIST throughout our land. We lose those who stand for righteousness, truth, and justice to influence and govern our nation. We bind the lies of fear and mind control and break those evil influences off of people. Blessings, as you release God’s loving heart and His victory into the earth! Love ya’ll, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

God’s prescription for healthy relationships begins with us having an intimate relationship with Christ. First, we learn to give attention to and do His Word. Next, we keep our identity in Christ and His Love and acceptance. Then when we feel hurt, or rejected by others, we will not fall into the trap of offense. We will be able to see the situation from God’s perspective and deal with it properly. “Understand [this], my beloved brethren. Let every man be quick to hear [a ready listener], slow to speak, take offense, and get angry. James 1:19 AMPC To listen means we look past what is being said and let God show us the root of the issue, giving us the words to speak. Lord, help us to apply Your principles to hear and discern the true issue, then speak Your Word that brings deliverance. Let our hearts be so full of Your love, that anger will not be able to control us. We choose to let the love of Christ control us in every situation—blessings, as you learn to hear from God’s perspective. Love y’all, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

Holy Spirit, as You lead us into deeper truths of God’s Word, let us be consumed with a deep respect for the wonder of God and the living Word. May we worship the greatness of Your splendor, giving You honor above all else. This is how we begin to receive Your wisdom and counsel to overcome. “The reverent and worshipful fear of the Lord is the beginning (the chief and choice part) of Wisdom, and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight and understanding.” Proverbs 9:10 AMPC Lord, as we give honor to You, release a hunger in us for Your Word. May we choose to place You first, giving our attention to You and Your ways. May we honor You, by giving You first place, above everything in our lives. Thank You for Your grace and mercies, that renew us to Your purposes daily. Blessings, as God fills You with His awe and splendor. Love y’all, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

Jesus chose to empty Himself of some of His Godly attributes to come to earth as a man. As a man, He could no longer be everywhere simultaneously. He was not all-knowing, he had to be led by the Holy Spirit, just like we need to be. He gives us examples of how to be led throughout the gospels. He is the living Word! The more we give attention and honor to His Precious Word, the more we’ll receive His wisdom and wealth. “For you are becoming progressively acquainted with and recognizing more strongly and the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (His kindness, His gracious generosity, His undeserved favor, and spiritual blessing), [in] that though He was [so very] rich, yet for your sakes He became [so very] poor so that by His poverty you might become enriched (abundantly supplied). 2 Corinthians 8:9 AMPC Lord, thank You for Your grace that enables us to receive, recognize, and change areas in our lives, so we can fully walk in the wealth of Your wisdom. Thank You, for the work You completed on the cross, so we can walk in Your abundant life. Thank You, that we are now seated with You in Heavenly places, seeing from Your wise perspective. Blessings, as God’s rich promises fill your life. Love you all, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!
