Week of 8/4/2025 Encouragement

Jesus willingly gave Himself to take all of our sin and sickness, so we can live in righteousness and health. The more we receive the truth of His Word, the more our soul (mind, will, and emotions) prospers. The more our soul prospers, the more our body prospers. Our choices (actions) produce the fruit of righteousness in this earth.
“He Himself carried our sins in His body on the cross so that we would be dead to sin and live for righteousness. Our instant healing flowed from His wounding.” 1 Peter 2:24 TPT
By the stripes upon Jesus’ back, we were healed! That’s past tense. That means it’s already done! We are a forgiven and healed people! Thank You Holy Spirit, for making this truth a reality in our soul. We’re not trying to get it, we have it, because Jesus gave it. Now, its ours and we take it! Blessings, as you choose to walk in, and release the TRUTH of GOD in your life! Love ya’ll, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

We live in a world that can be challenged by those who do not honor God’s ways. We must never give in to their ideologies, or fall into their patterns of dishonor. We have God’s Word, that teaches us how to have healthy relationships, and how to treat others. Our actions cannot follow the world’s behavior. We have been set apart to be different, so we can make a difference!
“Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.” I Peter 3:8-9 NKJV
We have been called to sow blessing wherever we go. We speak light to dark places, and God’s Light penetrates and destroys evil plots. Blessings, as you bless and receive the fullness of your inherited blessing in Christ Jesus! Love ya’ll, but remember: JESUS LOVES YOU MORE!!!

Jesus is Lord and King! But, He wants us to make Him King in our lives. That means we give Him rulership, and choose His ways above our desires. We are no longer our own, we have been bought with the precious Blood of Christ.
“15 But give reverent honor in your hearts to the Anointed One and treat him as the holy Master of your lives. And if anyone asks about the hope living within you, always be ready to explain your faith 16 with gentleness and respect. Maintain a clean conscience, so that those who slander you for living a pure life in Christ will have to lie about you and will be ashamed because of their slander.” 1 Peter 3:15-16 TPT
Not everyone will understand, or like the faith walk we choose to live to honor our loving Father. But, we’re not here to please man. We are here to please God and we do that by living peaceful, kind, and respectful lives that honor God first. We don’t have to prove our relationship with God, we just get to live it out. Blessings, as you let the fruit of Holy Spirit display God’s love through you! Love ya’ll, but remember: Jesus loves you more!!!

We must stand for morality in a world that has lost its moral compass. We arm ourselves with God’s Word, and release the hope we have in the finished work of the cross. Our mindset must be one of a soldier manning our post, and prayerfully releasing a Holy awakening to truth and righteousness.
“So live the rest of your earthly life no longer concerned with human desires but consumed with what brings pleasure to God.” 1 Peter 4:2 TPT
We live to please our God, which means we’ll often face difficulties and attacks from the very ones we’re called to minister to. But, praise God, we have His Love and acceptance to do it. Blessings, as you are consumed with the Father’s Heart, and desire to live for His pleasure. Love ya’ll, but remember: Jesus loves you more!!!

God is Love! It’s not just how He is sometimes, it’s Who He Is! And most importantly, He loves each of us with a Love we can’t fully comprehend. When we begin to believe this, then we are able to trust Him with everything.
“Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully. [Ps. 55:22.]” 1 Peter 5:7 AMPC
God is a benevolent Father, Who always has our best planned. That’s why, whatever we take to Him, we can leave it in His capable Hands. Blessings, as you rest in His perfect peace, knowing He is watchfully caring for you. Love ya’ll, but remember: JESUS loves you more!!!
