Thanking God At All Times by Joseph Prince
Hebrews 13:15
15 Therefore by Him let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of our lips, giving thanks to His name.
Lifting up your hands and thanking God is spontaneous and easy when you have just received a wonderful blessing: “God, I can’t thank You enough for this miracle!”
“Thank You Father, for answering my prayer!”
“Father, thank You for the windfall!”
Perhaps you came close to being in a fatal accident, but God plucked you out of danger just in time. Or your grandmother, an unbeliever for many years, finally received Jesus as her Savior and got healed of a long-term disease.
But there are times when you don’t feel like lifting up your hands to thank and praise God, yet you do it. Perhaps you feel very discouraged lately. Perhaps everything is going wrong for you and you feel like your life is in a mess. You can’t hold back the tears. Yet, you make a conscious decision to lift your hands and thank God for being in the situation with you. You open your mouth and begin to praise Him even though you really don’t feel like doing it.
In the midst of the trial that you are going through, you praise Him that He is your righteousness in spite of all the mistakes you have made. You thank Him that He is your Prince of Peace, and that His peace will arise in you and still the storms in your life.
My friend, God sees and appreciates such times when, despite feeling so discouraged, you offer a freewill thanksgiving offering to Him. In fact, your thanksgiving during such times is more highly prized by Him than your thanksgiving during those times when you are feeling joyful because you have just been blessed.
And when you choose to thank Him for His unfailing love, and His faithfulness to deliver, protect and provide for you even when you don’t see the blessings yet, before long, you will find yourself experiencing and enjoying the blessings! So lift your hands and praise the Lord, for He is good, and His mercy endures forever! (Psalm 106:1)

Prayer Day 2 (100 Days Of Favor)
Day2
-------
Father, I thank You that Your ways are ways of rest.
All I have to do is meditate on Jesus and His Word, and He will direct my steps,
lead me to the place that I am supposed to be at and
cause doors of opportunity to supernaturally open wide for me.
Open up Your Words of life to me as I meditate on Jesus,
His love for me,
His finished work, His forgiveness and His grace.

People Let You Down, God Picks You Up
We are humans and as a human being we sometimes get lost in handling a relationship. We disappoint or bring someone down along the way, unintentionally. That's normal. Because like I said we are not perfect. But remember this, at some point in your life someone close or dear to you brings you down, take a deep breath, look up and be glad because SOMEONE up there is willing to pick you up. Anytime. ➡ GOD⬅

Prayer Day #001
I have made a commitment to Jesus that I will spend 10mins each day with Him for 100 Days
by soaking in these beautiful prayers from Joseph Prince' book
"100 Days of Favor".
The first day of prayer have blessed my soul so much that I have decided to share this wonderful journey with you .
Come pray with me.
Day 1
------
Father, I know that a man cannot walk on water, whether in stormy
or calm conditions. Likewise, whether there are problems in my life
or not, I cannot reign in life without Jesus. Apart from Him,,I can do
NOTHING. Therefore, I ask, that You help me keep my eyes on Jesus
despite the many things that I have to attend to today. I thank You
that as I look to Jesus for all my needs and wants in the midst of every
difficulty and challenge, He will place me at the right place at the right time
and provide me with every resource I need to experience good success!
Amen.

Working Out Of Rest by Joseph Prince
Working Out Of Rest by Joseph Prince
Hebrews 4:3
3 For we who have believed do enter that rest…
Naturally speaking, when we rest, we don’t work. So what does working out of rest mean? Well, let me explain by sharing with you what the Lord had taught me.
Many years ago, when I first started preaching, I would prepare diligently for all my sermons. I fine-tuned my points and made sure that everything was in place. I would think to myself, “Man, I am going to share this... and that…”
But when I preached, I would forget to mention certain points. Because of that, I would get angry with myself. I would tell myself, “That was such a good point. Why didn’t I remember to share it?”
Then, God began to speak to me. He said, “Son, your preaching is not out of rest. It is out of your memory.” What He said next changed my life, not just in the area of preaching, but also in every other area, and I pray that it will bless you too. He said, “Prepare everything you need to. But when you stand in front of the people, whatever you need to say, I will give to you.”
Yes, there must be preparation, whether it is your sermon or sales presentation. I am not telling you to be lazy and just do nothing. You need to prepare, but don’t depend on your preparation. Just trust God and tell yourself that whatever you forget, God wants it forgotten. And whatever you didn’t plan to say but said, it is because God wanted it said. Don’t be stressed out and lose your rest by thinking, “I must know everything! I must remember everything and do everything I have prepared!”
No, believe God and be at rest. When the time comes, whatever you need to know, there and then, God will let you know. Whatever you don’t need to know, you don’t need to know. And don’t worry about what you didn’t say — believe that God didn’t want it said.
My friend, when you live life like that — trusting God and resting in His love for you — you become cool and collected. And when you are peaceful and at rest in Him, what you do prospers!
