Morning talk with the Lord..
What is my job, Lord?
To love God, others, and myself with the love you have given me.

Matthew 22: 37-39
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. And Love your neighbor as yourself.

How do I do that Lord when some are so unlovable?
If I am in you, you have been given every spiritual blessing and the anointing of the Holy Spirit. I did it and you can too.

Ephesians 1:3
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.

What else am I called to do Lord?
Forgive. Love mercy. Act justly. Walk humbly with Me.

Micah 6:8
And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
and to walk humbly with your God.

What do I do when I find it difficult to do these things, especially if people don’t always deserve it?
Do it anyway. Remember, I am the Judge and you are not.

James 4:12
There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you—who are you to judge your neighbor?

Prayer: Let it be, let it be, let it be Lord, let it be.
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

This came to me this morning and I wanted to emphasize that ”If” is the key word here because we will only receive His promises IF we choose to follow Jesus.

If..
Listen up dear child of mine and hear what I have to say.
My plans for you will come to fruition, if you’ll partner with Me today.

I am the way, the truth, and the life; I’ve given you everything I have to give.
If you’re willing to sit with Me and listen, I will tell you how to live.

I never promised it would be easy; it surely wasn’t for Me.
But if you choose to follow my way..peace, love and joy is what you’ll experience and see.

My Beloved, what I’m offering, you is a way out of chaos, fear, and strife.
So if you come as you are and walk with Me, then I will transform your life!

Read the Manual!
For Christians, that’s the Bible.
I’m sure you’ve heard people say jokingly, “When all else fails, read the Manual.“ Just about every product you purchase comes with a manual to give directions and instructions on how to put it together and use it. You can try and figure things out on your own, but usually that ends up being frustrating and a waste of time.
Our Manual, The Bible, gives us instructions and clear details on how to walk out our journey in life God‘s way. When we follow his directions, we will have success and all the abundance and blessings he planned for us.
Don’t waste your time trying to figure it out your own way… Read the Manual …The Bible!
God‘s word tells you everything you need to know to put your life together and have peace!

from Psalm 86….
Jehovah, I feel You embracing me…gracious and kind.
There are no other gods, none like You.
You hear, You listen, and You care.
You pour out an abundance of blessings upon me!

Praise God from Whom all blessings flow!

According to this scripture, the measure I give out is the measure I will receive back.
Matthew 7:1-2
“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.”

As I was complaining to the Lord about a person in my life who constantly berated me and said hurtful things to me, I realized that I was carrying anger, criticism, and judgment toward this person. The Lord was not pleased with my sin responses, and I became aware of what I was ‘measuring out.’

This scripture shouted out to me that what I was giving out would come back to me, and it was clearly a wake up call! Anger? Criticism? Judgment? Dear Lord… May it not be so!

I want my measure to be love and peace, and certainly not these things. If what I measure out is love and mercy and peace, then I will receive those things back. Yes please, Lord!

I confessed and repented of my sin response to the Lord, and I began to pray for this person’s heart to be healed. I prayed the Lord would help me to respond His way. He said in
Matthew 5:44 ..

“But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.”

This is the right response, and yes, it’s not easy; but it will bring you much needed peace.

Expect Delays
I saw a sign while traveling on the highway that said “Expect Delays.” I thought to myself, “Wouldn’t it be great if when we were praying for things, God would let us know if there was going to be a delay in his answer?

When we pray, we do expect to have an answer, and probably a relatively quick one, right? But it doesn't always work out that way. Just like the traffic delays the sign warned us about, there may be detours and re-routing that will happen, and it may slow you down, but eventually you'll get there. Once the obstruction is cleared up, you'll be back on track and things will move forward.

When God delays an answer, we don't always know what's causing it; but this is what we do need to know: He has a perfect plan for us, and His timing is perfect. He sees the bigger picture and is working out all the obstructions to allow only the best for us.

It's important to trust God when delays happen and know that He is up to good. When the time is right, your answer will come - the traffic will clear - and there will be no more delays! Put your expectation in God, and not in the delays!

What is the measure of success to the Lord?
As I thought about this question, I understood that we cannot earn God’s love or favor by doing good things. It’s our willingness to be obedient to His will that pleases God.

When we choose to follow Him and do what He has told us to do, it brings Him great joy.
When we give our repentant hearts to the Lord, this becomes our gift to Him - our sacrifice if you will - and what He holds dear.

Psalm 51:16-17 says…
“You do not delight and sacrifice, or I would bring it; you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.
The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart.“

I believe these are the true measures of success to the Lord…obedience, following Him, and a repentant heart.
