So many reasons to rejoice and praise God! Listen to the study of Psalm 33 that gives clarity to why we can rejoice and praise Our Sovereign God with a "new Song." Psalm 33:3
The most important spiritual tool is the Bible! The B-I-B-L-E is our Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth! Reading and hearing is key to growing your relationship with God through the Holy Spirit! 2 Timothy 3:16-27, Amplified Bible, " 16 All Scripture is God-breathed [given by divine inspiration] and is profitable for instruction, for conviction [of sin], for correction [of error and restoration to obedience], for training in righteousness [learning to live in conformity to God’s will, both publicly and privately—behaving honorably with personal integrity and moral courage]; 17 so that the [a]man of God may be complete and proficient, outfitted and thoroughly equipped for every good work." You don't have to be a preacher to know the Bible, you only need to one seeking truth!
Bible Readings are a part of the ministry of "We Are Family Prayer Line, Live and on Podcast." The Bible Readings were called by God in April, 2020 into this present time. Only God's Word, The Bible, is used by the Holy Spirit to transform and propel us as children of God into our purpose! Ephesians 2:10 AMP reminds us " 10 For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us]."
Psalm 127:1 Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain, KJV This verse encourages the reader to take a moment to seek to understand how the Holy Spirit can guide us in our daily living. Listen to spoken words of scripture, prayer, and examples of why it's important to run to the promises of God that are found in God's Word, the Bible!
The family through the Blood of Jesus is blessed, despite life’s challenges, we shout to God be the glory, for we are not broken, nor downtrodden! That’s why letting God help you Find your voice is important to be shared with others! Luke 19:41 -42 AMP " 41 As He, which is speaking about Jesus, approached Jerusalem, He saw the city and wept over it [and the spiritual ignorance of its people], " 42 saying, “If [only] you had known on this day [of salvation], even you, the things which make for peace [and on which peace depends]! But now they have been hidden from your eyes." However, this season, to God be the Glory, yield your voices to be used by the Holy Spirit to share the scriptures of the Gospel of Christ's salvation!
Celebrating Resurrection Sunday is always a great time of reflection, and gratitude, and can be done at anytime; which is why we have communion! Listen to how being in this, “Now time” of being in the newness that we have through Jesus Christ helps us to develop a "Now Voice! It is this "newness" that causes us to develop a "Now Voice" that speaks encouragement and give words that give life to one another!
"The Importance of Finding our Voice" begins with understanding, as stated by Jesus in Matthew 15:10, “Listen and understand:" Family, that’s also true for us, don’t leave without understanding because the times we live in are filled with people wanting to keep things status quo just like the Pharisees and scribes. You know the Pharisees and scribes wanted things to remain customary, traditional and status quo! But Jesus represented a New Covenant!
Family, since “Victory IS in Jesus!" causing our surrender to be "Reliant on God" our understanding to labor into God's rest as directed in Hebrews 4:9-11 makes sense! It is also freeing! Entering into God's rest created by the finished works of Jesus is what equips us with a "voice" created to be used by God! Note: The quotation words are earlier connected Podcasts! Listen and be blessed!
Hebrews 4:9 - 11 Tells us to enter into the finished works of Christ! Stop working in your own self-reliance, but enter in God's rest! Reliance on God is the solution to remaining on the path of Peace, Spiritual Growth, Victory now & the path of Everlasting Life! Resting in God is the only successful way to making difficult decisions because God already has the plan!
The completion of Ephesians 4: 25-32 to encourage us to be sensitive to the Holy Spirit's direction! Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection created a new road for our living and connects us to the "New Life" that Paul directs all believers to pursue and exhibit! The "New Life" only possible through yielding to the Holy Spirit!
Family, only the Holy Spirit can change us and make us obedient to the will of God, and it does feel amazingly wonderful! We just need to let go of the old life for a new and better life. Jesus’s life, death, and resurrection created a new road for our living and connects us to the New Life that Paul directs all believers to pursue and exhibit in Ephesians 4:16-32
Family, God is good and you can be blessed by walking in "Nonstop Obedience in the Holy Spirit! The scripture doesn’t say don’t see the world, it says don’t confirm to the world, Romans 12: 2. That can be a difficult decision because the world lies about its benefit to "go along to get along! Be blessed to hear how the Word of God leaves the two dimensional world that was created by the author in it's presentation of text, and becomes three dimensional when one overlaps the Word into their life and lives it!
Jesus’s example, to fast and pray showed Jesus strong and certain during His wilderness experience, Matthew 4:1-11. Jesus's purposeful submission to God is clear and came prior to his ministry that began in Galilee, Matthew 4:12. Lent is an opportunity to live Romans 12:1b “ to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship!" Fasting and prayer is transformational! Listen and be encouraged to fast and pray away from something or to fast and pray towards doing something that God is calling you to do!
The Bible can be a 3 Dimensional experience. Even though it’s flat on paper, 2 D, when you memorize the scriptures, and place them in your memory to live the scriptures intentionally, Pow! The Bible becomes 3 dimensional through our living! A 3-D Bible experience helps you to see the world and the people in the world with Biblical clarity. Be encouraged to live the Bible as you make difficult decisions to live a life that is pleasing to your Heavenly Father!
Bible Beat is a unique feature of "We Are Family Prayer Line" that reminds believers we all have a purpose to talk and share the studied Word of God with fellow believers. Listen as Harriet defines, explains and encourages us to live in a state of spiritual worship!
Validation from others can be fickle because people look only at the outward appearance! Don't believe me, look at King David's story! When you "Take What God Says About You to Be True!” it is the truth because what God says is in the scriptures! God does not look at the things people look at. the Lord looks at the heart.” That’s what intentional living is creating within us, a heart that God will take delight within, Proverbs 23:26!
Family, The love of God and His perfect plan is aligned for us to understand that living intentionally is crucial and results in a deeply rooted relationship with God! Matthew 24 was given to believers through Christ’s love, so believers would not be deceived!
Bible Beats! B-E-A-T-S is a rap,a- tat, a- tat, about the Word of God! Check out a discussion of family talking about God’s word. The Bible is life changing, and living it is impacting! God blesses us with a great group of Brothers and Sisters in Christ, and talking about God's Love with one another is inspiring. 1 Thessalonians 5:11 CSB reads, “11 Therefore encourage one another and build each other up as you are already doing.” Bible Beats allows us to encourage one another intentionally!
When you wrap yourself in understanding Hebrews 11:1-3, faith becomes trusting God in all circumstances! No matter the circumstances, you find peace within ALL situations! Trusting God through uncertainty, joyful through disappointment, hopeful through health issues, resting in God through loneliness, praising God for possibilities through financial issues, calling on the Holy Spirit through drug and alcoholic recovery! Hallelujah, you choose to be steadfast and unmovable when wrapped in God’s Word. God's Word never fails!
Intentionally living in God's Will as the Hebrew Hall of Faith Believers happened! Their faith, obedience, and trust in God allowed them to do things with no limits! Message Bible combines Hebrews 11:1 with verse 2 reads, 1-2 The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living.” WOW family, What a Word, right? and I’m not even finished reading the scripture yet! The scripture continues with “ It’s our handle on what we can’t see. The act of faith is what distinguished our ancestors, set them above the crowd” So, what's limiting you?
Family, may intentional living help you develop a closer relationship and stronger walk in God! Listen to how this New Year's Resolution will be something you can commit to because of the blessed benefits that living intentionally provides !
When we look back over what has been, we realize the only reasonable thing to do is to "Give Thanks to the Lord" just as Psalm 136 :1-3 encourages! Reflection has a tendency to propel the future!
Reflection is a helpful exercise, it makes you realize the many blessings that God has given you! Counting blessings is an opportunity to thank God, join us as we thank God for gathering us as believers to pray for one another, live or on podcast!
Love is the foundation for believers in Jesus Christ! Paul explained how important love is to the believers' walk in 1 Corinthians 13. Be blessed and encouraged to walk in love and unity!
Young people, old people, all people, If The Holy Spirit can move in accordance with God to create the heavens and the Earth , then the Holy Spirit can surely move within our spirit to create us as living testimonies! Lord give us a desire of Colossians 1:10 CSB "so that you may walk worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to him: bearing fruit in every good work and growing in the knowledge of God..."
Let us all be or become a living witness that "Gratitude is my Attitude," in the series of "Bringing out the Best" in oneself and one another! Be encouraged by the prayers and the scriptures shared as a reminder of what real gratitude in God provides!
Family, yes, we seek a deeper understanding of what it means to bring out the best in oneself and in others; therefore, rest assured the Holy Spirit's ultimate purpose is to help us be transformed and made ready to be used by God!
Drinking the right kind of water brings out our best. John 7:39” 39 He said this about the Spirit. Those who believed in Jesus were going to receive the Spirit, for the Spirit had not yet been given because Jesus had not yet been glorified.” Now we get to live it! Hallelujah because The Holy Spirit allows us to have it now!
“What does “Bringing out the best in ourselves and one another mean?” The scriptures lead us to see Jesus as our model on how to bring out the best in one another through the simplicity of Jesus' question to a Samaritan Woman, in John 4:7 (CSB) “7 A woman of Samaria came to draw water. “Give me a drink,” Jesus said to her." After a spectacular conversation between them, John 4:15 reads “15 “Sir,” the woman said to him, “give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and come here to draw water.” An offer and response for all "whosoever" will heed!
Miracles are real and happening today! Listen to my personal encounter with the Holy Spirit and how the the Holy Spirit helps bring out the best in ourselves and in one another! Just like Jesus brought out the best in all that He encountered, we can too! Jesus modeled how a simple question can lead to bringing out the best in others as He did with the Samaritan woman. The intro song is from YouTube, and not the property of the Prayer Line, just a real blessing!
Seeking God will not be in vain because our “Heavenly Father” is faithful! “God Does Just what He Says" because God is truly awesome. The dictionary defines awesome as "extremely impressive, inspiring great admiration, apprehension or fear!" See God's awesomeness explained through the scriptures of Psalm 119.
Jesus told the Pharisees in Matthew 12:28, " 28 But if I am casting out demons by the Spirit of God, then the Kingdom of God has arrived among you." Hallelujah, the relationship that was planned in Genesis 1:26 (God created man in the image of God) was not thwarted by sin, didn’t require a plan B. No, salvation through Jesus Christ was always the plan of our Sovereign God’s Providential Will to erase repentant sin from man's judgement! Christ is also the answer to debunking the "Big Lie" through prayer and Biblical truth!
Trusting in a Sovereign God is what equips us for living in today's world! Thinking about eternity should be comforting and encouraging when you view it from the perspective of prayer and the Word of God! We pray we'll be ready as a family, a community, a country, and a world!
Trusting in a Sovereign God is what equips us for living in today's world! Thinking about eternity should be comforting and encouraging when you view from the perspective of prayer and the Word of God! We pray we'll be ready as a family, a community, a country, and a world!
Family, God knows what we need! Let’s rejoice in trusting a sovereign God! Hallelujah God is all powerful , an omnipotent God! That’s why God’s Providential Will provides us peace and joy over all issues attempting to prevent us from living our life like it’s golden! And the “golden life” family, has nothing to do with money, cars, and big houses!
The Bible declares the truth is Inevitable. The world thinks the truth can be jeopardized, but that would be underestimating an Almighty God! When the blind and misguided crucified Jesus we saw the victory that God had always planned through the 3 types of God's Will, God's Perfect Will, God's Permissive will, and God's Providential will!
First, Truth is not negotiable! Family, inevitable truth directs us to principles found in John chapter 1 verses 1-5. We pray to become the body of Christ because the condition within the World needs the power of the church! Real life family is embodied in Christ and is what will keep us in all situations, even catastrophic ones! The plan of God is the truth that is inevitable!
Family, even with today's headlines…. We know that our Savior Jesus Christ is the only one that can make it right! It is Jesus, our Lord and Savior that is calling us louder than ever before because, The Truth is Inevitable!
For us the power of prayer is real! We are not anxious, but surrendering our thoughts to our Lord and Savior for our weapons of warfare is prayer! Pray along with us for our children and our 20-39 year old loved ones, the seed of our future!
In a "God moment," the imagery of the ceiling fan, with the fan’s shadow upon the ceiling! I realized the only way one can truly be under the shadow of the Almighty is if God is in front of us! Acts 24:14-16 shows Paul's power in the Holy Spirit to be faithful and true in declaring the Gospel of Jesus Christ, an example to all on how God can transform a sinful man into a compelled servant for the Gospel!
All I can say is family listen, get a pen and paper and take notes! Hallelujah. The thief is busy in this dark time of pandemic, chaos, confusion, disruption, and the lies are rampant causing stress! Listen and realize God's step by step response to healing in Psalm 43: 1-5. Overcome the darts of Satan, confusion, the loss of hope through the empowerment from God's Word!
I have a question for you to ponder as we conclude who "God IS." As you watch the news, do you see a boldness in people living a life without God? The conclusion of Psalm 139 study, shows David's realization of "God IS" response is to worship God! Hallelujah! Today, if we know God's attributes, omnipresence, omniscience, and omnipotence, today we must answer by living in the "Fruit of the Spirit." We must answer the darkness with the light of Christ within us by showing self-control, faithfulness, peace, patience, gentleness, goodness, love, joy, and kindness uncovering the darkness.
How did the first church thrive? It was the because of how The Holy Trinity worked within the the body of believers to live in Koinonia!
"God Is " shown in Psalm 139 in a descriptive manner by David which show's God's attributes to be omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence! Listen if you come to the same conclusion, and led by the Holy Spirit to worship God, surrender to God, be obedient to God and put God's Word into action by living the Fruit of the Spirit!
God's love provides us grace, and mercy, and the Holy Spirit promises to guide us into truth eliminating the lies and the distractions that abound within this world! The Prophet Zechariah is clear on the reckoning and the promises of God's resolution to create a world that will know Jesus for oneself, and that while Judah and Jerusalem missed knowing Jesus the first time, they will not miss knowing Jesus the second time!
Listen as we see God’s love and power as we continue our series, “Hallelujah Anyhow” using the Book of Zechariah. Our next question to answer is, “who is Zechariah and how do we connect to him today?”
Overcoming dysfunction is God’s plan for our lives no matter the chaos in our lives and wrong decisions we have made, God has an answer! In a study of King Joash's decision to desecrate the alter of the temple with the blood of God's prophet Zechariah, God had a response! Listen, be encouraged and excited to know Christ is God's answer to dysfunction!
Family, Isaiah 54:17, TLB, reminds us no weapon turned against you shall succeed and that this is the blessing given to us says the Lord. Listen how this promise connects to Zechariah and to what Jesus says in Matthew 23:34-35. This series will focus on how we too can always say Hallelujah anyhow as we study the Book of Zechariah and how it is relevant for us today!
A focus of reflection that acknowledges there is no greater love than God’s love given through our Savior, Jesus Christ! Jesus is our resting place and the reason we can’t turn back to Pre-COVID thinking and behavior because the Holy Spirit has brought us closer to God and to the “family hood” of unconditional brotherly love as the children of God!
Family, the police killings are an example of oppression and hatred that is created in an ungodly world to create confusion, distraction, and division! But fret not, for God response is found in the Beatitudes! Luke Chapter 6 :23 is a reminder that wrongful killings of ancient prophets and even Jesus Himself was the world’s response to justice and equality!
Family, our current series is “We Can’t Go Back'', reminds us of no pre-COVID thinking, no pre-COVID behavior, and no pre-COVID focus because God pulled us closer to Him in 2020! This experience has made us desire more of God in every area of our lives! So, stay the course in your walk with the Lord!
Family, the Sermon on the Mount is also known as the Beatitudes because it describes the new law of love that represents the New Covenant of Jesus Christ! The Beatitudes speak of the blessedness of the believer who has the qualities or experiences that show who belongs to the Kingdom of Heaven! That’s why we request the Holy Spirit to show us who we really are, as we hunger to be what God has called us to be! Family we ARE wonderfully and marvelously created, so listen for your individualized Word from God!
Family, “If You Always Do What You've Always Done, You'll Always Get What You've Always Had." I can't go back to pre-COVID behavior or pre-COVID thinking, nor pre-COVID expectations! In 2020 we were being consecrated for Jesus, Hebrews chapters Hebrews 4:14 - 16 and Hebrews 5:12-14, is a revelation that I must share with you!
Two scriptures for you to consider as we pursue the spiritual understanding of True Love are Matthew 21:17-22 and Galatians 5:22-23! As we celebrate Resurrection Day, let us realize the connection of true fruit, begins with not being fake and misleading! When we yield to the Holy Spirit we connect to the true Vine, Jesus Christ!
Any upcoming celebrations of Palm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday must begin with the gift Jesus Christ left for the believers! Jesus in John 16:13-14, the Living Bible translation says "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come. He will glorify Me, for He will take of Mine and will disclose it to you. " The scripture makes it clear the Holy Spirit is real, willing, and more than able to help us become all that God calls us to be!
The walk in the Spirit is interactive, you will get what you give! Interacting with the Holy Spirit is not something you can just be told to do, it’s something that you have to feel for yourself! Listen to the scriptures to give you knowledge and spiritual understanding on why Jesus made the Holy Spirit available to the believer.
Family of believers, it is so important to walk in the Holy Spirit! The Holy Spirit is why we have joy, feel loved, and can walk in hope at all times! John 14:17 KJV “17 Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.” Also, understand clearly why "the unpardonable sin" to the Holy Spirit is unforgivable.
This higher level of prayer is specifically focused on this question, " Are your children and grandchildren growing closer to the Lord ?" Just as Moses prayed for the children of the Israelites, we too are called to be prayer intercessors for our families. Psalm 90: 16-17 The Living Bible Translation, "16 Let us see your miracles again; let our children see glorious things, the kind you used to do, 17 and let the Lord our God favor us and give us success. May he give permanence to all we do."
Holy Spirit I pray you provide us with wisdom and spiritual understanding to the question of God's favor on our lives, in Jesus name Amen. Let's look at the favor Moses prayed for in Psalm 90, with particular emphasis upon versus 16-17 which reads, “16 Let us see your miracles again; let our children see glorious things, the kind you used to do, 17 and let the Lord our God favor us and give us success. May he give permanence to all we do.”
Have you ever pondered "the favor of God?" Is God, a God of favor like Santa Claus? Or, is God, a God of favor for purpose? Participate in this study of Psalms 30 in part 1, and a study of Psalms 90 in Part2, using scripture to scripture interpretation through the Holy Spirit's teaching for the God of Exodus 3:14 KJV , " 14 And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you." to decide.
Believers of Christ are set apart to be the children of God, and as the children of God, God make us pure and holy; this happens because of the Word found in our Bibles! That's truth we can count on from Jesus! John 17:15-17 ,The Living Bible Translation , reads “15 I’m not asking you to take them out of the world, but to keep them safe from Satan’s power. 16 They are not part of this world any more than I am. 17 Make them pure and holy through teaching them your words of truth."
Having a phenomenal day, filled with love, joy, peace, appreciation and excitement all rolled up together, made me realize the importance of healthy relationships to our lives! I believe this is why Paul prayed in Colossians 1:9-14. He wanted the believers to have the right connections with true teachers like Epaphrus, and to not fall prey to false teachers spreading lies and false doctrine. This prayer is also for believers of today!
Sometimes we get a tickle in our throat, as though something is itching to get out! For me, my tickle was to share the Word of God, using Colossians 1:9-14. Paul wanted the believers to be safe from the lies and the false teaching in Colossae! We must speak out in wisdom and spiritual understanding today, just as Paul did about 2000 years ago!
Viewing the Bible as B- Basic, I- Instructions, B- Before, L -Leaving, E-Earth allows us to build a life focused on God! Listen to hear how my cousin's action plan illustrates a life that focuses on God, in response to " What’s Your Focus Now?"
Now that you have been blessed to survive the crazy of the pandemic and blessed to live through 2020 into 2021, what is your focus now? Listen and consider how God's words through Jeremiah directs us to make God our #1 focus, Jeremiah 29:10-12.
Join my real-life family’s reflection of its multigenerational history of family prayer life through the eyes of my 83 years -young, Aunt Sue. The effect of her closing prayer encourages us all to do as she does, "to walk the talk " by depending on our Lord Jesus Christ. Perhaps your heart will be moved to seek to join a Bible based church, so you too can “walk the talk.”
Politics can not overtake love of your fellowman and love of our country, one nation, undivided! Matthew Chapter 7:15 -17 NIV tells us to “Watch out for false prophets. That are in sheep’s clothing, because inwardly they are ferocious wolves. We will know them By their fruit. because every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit."
The Israelites said they wanted a king to rule over them in 1Samuel 8: 4-22. America has 47% that has fallen into the same trap as the Israelites, and to be silent to this wrongdoing makes us complicit in their sin! Join us as we pray for our country's healing! Part 1
There is no debate that 2020 has been an unusual year! Nor is there doubt that God still reigns!
