Routine May 11

 

        Each new day demonstrates a spirit awakening. Struggle to turn around your strategy and adventure. Instead of getting up each day focusing on what will happen physically, think about the possibilities of your spirit. Each principle of heaven mixes with earth. They connect. If you seek first the kingdom of heaven that surrounds the believing, covenant people of Christ, each need will be added to you. The Lord gives and wants you to enjoy the physical as you apply spirit lessons of growth. Advancing your career, making money, any physical necessity can flourish within a gift economy of fun, peace, and delight for others as you cultivate Christ friendship. When life is too hard, you have put too much value and search on buying life instead of trusting heavenly Father to provide. When waking in morning, think: “Lord who are we to be today?”

Prayer: Lord, help us see the fun and adventure in spiritual growth.

Daily Action Plan May 8

 

        When you plant even a small seed every day for Lord Jesus, he will take care of the fruit. Share a kind word, a gift of money, a touch in his name, a directed prayer not usually asked, sharing a compassionate presence. Do this in Jesus name because He already hears and you have lived the greatest parable in Mark 4:8. Send out a good seed every day. Push it out there and let the Spirit grow it. There are never too many seeds. Some make it and others don’t. But Holy Fruit knows how to honor the heavenly Father.

 

Prayer: Lord, help me pay attention today to sow a seed for you.

Your Pace May 7

 

        The world may hurry you to keep its pace. This may cause you to spend time with the wrong things. Pause and take time with the Holy Spirit. He will lead one step at a time. When you rest and contemplate in your soul, God’s Spirit can guide your thoughts and actions. Do not panic---that is the flesh and the world pressing in on you. When the world says “hurry,” pause and rest in Christ. The Lord, does not want you to stumble. You fall because you are not closely paying attention to what scripture teaches….Rest, pray, think with Jesus as your friend. Embrace the scripture word, then, talk with the Holy Spirit and listen with your spirit. 

Prayer: Lord, I am so grateful I can talk with you daily and I know you listen because you never get in any false hurry.

Beauty Exists May 5

 

        Heavenly Father’s Spirit, His Beingness moves from everwhen to everywhere to everlasting. Try to filter everything through the Spirit. With much ugliness in the world, he has given us Beauty through the Spirit to offset some evil. When pleasing music abounds, He is here. When the right art captures the eye, He is here. When written words speak truth, he is here. When a bright moon or a comet touches the awe and wonder in us, He is here. Beauty represents his purity of innocence, found in His Son, his intended love and forgiveness happening through creation. Slow down to absorb beauty for soul peace.

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the beauty of innocence, like that of a child or the fragrance of a flower.

A True Highway May 4

 

 When Jesus spoke of spreading the kingdom of heavenly Father in Mt. 5, some suggestions follow:

Poor in spirit—the kingdom of Need. . .connects and describes a condition of surrender to fight lostness and loneliness.

Mourn—the kingdom of Sorrow. . . fights selfishness because feeling for another’s pain and hurt for confused world.

Meek—the kingdom of Yielding. . .overcomes stubborn pride by submitting self-will instead of power makes right.

Hunger and thirst—the kingdom of Appetite. . .search to define balance of  right and wrong ways to live this world.

Mercy—the kingdom of Kindness. . . rids harshness and misplaced pride. Tool for creating ability to absorb hurts of people and learn forgiveness.

Pure in heart—the kingdom of Cleanness. . .defeats making excuses, develops clear honesty when any lying, jealousy, or envy slips in.

Peacemakers—the kingdom of Harmony. . .disarms roots of anger that lead to hate being a way to correct.

Persecuted—the kingdom of Loyalty. . .endures being betrayed, helps to learn love even for the unlovable.

Accused falsely—the kingdom of Perseverance, withstands being judged and misunderstood while Heavenly Father recreates the universe.

        You may not succeed in one kingdom until you have grown sufficiently through the kingdom that goes before or after. They are linked, but from time to time, you may move in and out of one or all of them in order yet sometimes out–of-order. They connect and reconnect!

 

Prayer: Lord, thank you for the blueprint of your greater kingdom through the smaller kingdoms. Help us follow each day.

Failure May 2

 

        Try not to spend much time thinking back upon your failures, dwelling on your excuses, or even any immaturity from them. Lean on the Holy Spirit and you will have the power to put all things in the proper place. Your age may not matter. Your attitude and character does. Heavenly Father has placed many things in subjection to humanity, but He has not given up total control. Search with the Holy Spirit for your special insight. He still guides any journey when allowed.

 

Prayer: Lord, keep reminding me today that you direct our path.

Struggles May 1

 

        When you enter the path of joy or pain, comfort or discomfort, knowledge or questions, the journey may not always be for your direct edification. The Lord continually seeks those who need salvation. You may enter a struggle with Christ for the sake of someone else. God’s compassion leads to your passion. Even if you are tempted to question or fear . . . remember, God looks to save throughout the universe, and you may be traveling with Him. He will lead. You are to pay attention and follow.

 

Prayer: Lord, help me remember the Holy Spirit works always through pain or prosperity.
