Stay awake!!! The Kingdom GOD will come at a time that you do not expect. Stay awake and stay focused, DO NOT let your lamps run out of oil. AMEN
Scripture Reference: Matthew 25:1-13 ESV
“Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps[a] and went to meet the bridegroom.[b] 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 5 As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. 8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. 11 Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Psalm 103
Bless the Lord, O My Soul Of David. 103 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name! 2 Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits, 3 who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, 4 who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, 5 who satisfies you with good so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. 6 The Lord works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed. 7 He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel. 8 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. 9 He will not always chide, nor will he keep his anger forever. 10 He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. 11 For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him; 12 as far as the east is from the west, so far does he remove our transgressions from us. 13 As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him. 14 For he knows our frame;[a] he remembers that we are dust. 15 As for man, his days are like grass; he flourishes like a flower of the field; 16 for the wind passes over it, and it is gone, and its place knows it no more. 17 But the steadfast love of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting on those who fear him, and his righteousness to children's children, 18 to those who keep his covenant and remember to do his commandments. 19 The Lord has established his throne in the heavens, and his kingdom rules over all. 20 Bless the Lord, O you his angels, you mighty ones who do his word, obeying the voice of his word! 21 Bless the Lord, all his hosts, his ministers, who do his will! 22 Bless the Lord, all his works, in all places of his dominion. Bless the Lord, O my soul!

Praising GOD has many benefits....1. HE'S WORTHY OF PRAISE!!! 2. It Keeps our heart in the right posture, and reminds us that literally EVERYTHING belongs to HIM!!! Even the things that we do well....HE empowered us to, for HIS Glory and our good. Praising GOD for the things HE allows us to do well reminds us that it's not of our own doing, it's HIS. When we give HIM the praise for things that HE'S allowed us to do well, two things happen....GOD receives something from us that belongs to HIM, and we're protected from conceit, which is hazardous to our souls.

We ALL need guidance and direction, no matter how old we get. The Bishop T.D. Jakes reminded me of that the other night...he said no matter how "grown" we get, we still NEED to be led by GOD. And it's the truth...we NEVER reach an age where we no longer need GOD. NEVER. And HE is truly the ONLY one equipped to lead us, guide us, teach us, and show us who we are. Let HIM LEAD YOU!!! If you've been struggling with that lately, you can ALWAYS ask HIM for HIS help. HE gives it freely :)

Feeling bad about yourself and what you offer is not a sign of being humble, it's a sign of not believing what GOD says about you. Low self-esteem is dangerous. It can cause you to seek to please people, and not GOD. Be careful about how you view yourself. If it doesn't match up with the Word of GOD, then you need a restored and renewed mind...and GOD can provide that...you need only ASK. AMEN
