The Lord With You Equals Success by Joseph Prince
Genesis 39:2
2The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man…
You may have no qualification, position or wealth — nothing in the natural. But when the Lord is with you, you will end up with everything because He will cause you to be successful.
Joseph had nothing when his Egyptian master Potiphar bought him from the slave market. Yet, even then, it was said of him, “The Lord was with Joseph, and he was a successful man...”
Joseph the slave a successful man? He was a nobody with nothing, not even a shirt on his back, not a dime to his name, no family members with him and no friends to turn to. All he had was the presence of the Lord. But it was precisely because of this that he was successful wherever he was. He eventually became the most powerful man in Egypt, second only to Pharaoh, who set him over all the land of Egypt. Joseph was given power, authority and riches (Genesis 41:40–44), all because the Lord was with him.
A junior college student worshiping in our church experienced good success in his examination results for the same reason. The first to admit that he was just an average student, he obtained his first ever straight As for all his subjects when he sat for the Singapore-Cambridge General Certificate of Education (Advanced Level) Examination simply believing that he would be successful because the Lord was with him!
Another church member, who was a fresh university graduate, believed that because the Lord was with her, she would be successful in the workforce. Even though she had no work experience and was faced with a gloomy job market, she succeeded in getting her first job in a short period of time and which gave her a salary beyond her expectations. Then, in spite of a directive from the parent company to freeze the wages of all employees, she received a pay increment as well as a company scholarship for further education!
Beloved, it does not matter if you are a nobody with nothing in the natural. When the Lord is with you, you will end up with everything because He will empower you to succeed, prosper and live the abundant life. Indeed, you will end up enjoying His favor, goodness and grace!

100 Days of Favor: Day 42
Day 42: Perfect Sacrifice, Complete Forgiveness
Father, Your word is true: ALL the sins that I have and will ever commit have been forgiven by You because of Jesus. He took every one of my sins at the cross and punished to the full. Therefore, I know that I am righteously and justly forgiven. My forgiveness is based on the sure and perfect sacrifice of Jesus. Thank You for extending such unmerited favor to me!

That Helpless Feeling
"That Helpless Feeling"
You are kind, Lord, so good and merciful.
You protect ordinary people, and when I was helpless, you saved me and treated me so kindly that I don’t need to worry anymore.
—Psalm 116:5–7 (CEV)
The world tells you that feeling helpless is a bad thing. But I tell you it is okay to feel helpless. It doesn’t make Me want to avoid you; it makes Me want to take care of you even more—and supply you with more of My Power.
Don’t beat yourself up because you need help. Instead, come to Me with all your neediness. I welcome you and your needs, and the Light of My Love will comfort you. Just give your heart to Me. Let Me fill it up with trust.
If your heart is full of trust, you won’t whine or rebel when the going gets rough. Instead, you will gather up enough courage to thank Me—even during hard times. This is the kind of trust that pleases Me. And I will reward you with My Strength.
Love,
Jesus

I Feel Guilty
Sometimes I feel so guilty everytime I forget about Jesus when it shouldn't be.
Now Jesus has brushed off all that nonsense feeling in me
by taking me to this devotional.
Jesus Calling For Kids.
Thank You Jesus!
Enjoy and be blessed everyone!
"Cheering You On"
Who can accuse the people that God has chosen?
No one! God is the One who makes them right.
—Romans 8:33 (ICB)
In your heart, you want to live in My Presence all the time. But in this world, that can be a very difficult thing to do.
Don’t be discouraged if your mind wanders away from Me. And don’t accuse yourself of being a failure. Try to see yourself as I see you. I am thrilled by your deep desire to stay close to Me. And I am pleased every time you reach out to talk with Me. Also, I notice the progress you have made since you started trying to live in My Presence.
When you realize your mind has wandered, don’t be upset or surprised. This world—and its ruler, the evil one—does everything it can to distract you. So when you force your way through all those distractions to talk to Me, you score a victory. Treasure these victories, and let them encourage you to keep trying. I am cheering you on!

Stay With Jesus
Yes Jesus. No matter how busy I am,
Please keep me in Your arms.
Guide and bless me in everything that I try to do. May it be on my online business, relationships, new ventures and adventures.
I know you will bless me because I will become a blessing to others too.
Thank You for taking good care of my future. Amen.
"Stay with Me"
For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.
—Ephesians 2:10 (NLT)
Spend some more time with Me. I know today is a busy day and you have much to do, but stay with Me for a few more minutes. I want to enjoy your company. I also want to prepare you for this day.
Great athletes take time to think carefully about what is ahead— going through it in their minds before they move their bodies. In the same way, sitting quietly in My Presence prepares you for the day ahead—for the good things I planned for you.
Only I know what will happen today. If you don’t let Me prepare you, you may get tired and feel like giving up. Rest a moment with Me—and then we’ll have a great day together.

Blessed In More Ways Than One by Joseph Prince
Blessed In More Ways Than One by Joseph Prince
Romans 5:1
1Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,
We are not trying to get peace with God. We already have peace with God, having been justified by faith through our Lord Jesus Christ. This peace with God brings us the peace of God, which guards our hearts and minds. (Philippians 4:7) Then, the peace of God inside us will also translate into the peace of God outside us — in all our outward circumstances.
Firstly, we will find that what would normally cause us much care and anxiety will no longer be the case. Secondly, not only will everything turn out well, but we will also be blessed in more ways than one. This is what happens when Jesus, the Prince of Peace, is our peace.
A church member, though stricken with cancer, enjoyed the peace of God, knowing that He was her healer. She later received confirmation from two different doctors that she had been completely healed of cancer. In addition to receiving her blessing of complete healing, she also received from her insurance company a critical illness claim of S$50,000!
Another church member, upon hearing news of her retrenchment, committed the matter to God, believing that He would work all things out for her, especially her loss of a regular income. Shortly after, she received her retrenchment package — a substantial five-figure sum. And within days of her retrenchment, she received calls from her contacts in the industry, offering her jobs, two of which were jobs in well-known multinational corporations (MNCs).
At that time, she had not yet started looking for a job, so the calls were unexpected but welcomed. She finally opted to work for one of the MNCs — a dream come true for her — at a salary that was 30 per cent more than her previous one! When she simply prayed, “Abba Father, I trust You to look after me,” and rested in His love and peace, she was abundantly blessed.
Beloved, because Jesus is your peace, you are blessed in more ways than one. Your soul will prosper. Your health will prosper. Your finances will prosper. Your loved ones will be taken care of. Your relationships will flourish. You will enjoy the favor of God. All because you have the Prince of Peace!
