CLOSE TO FULFILLMENT

The one who made us sees all our struggles, hears our cry, and will never fail us; for He is a Loving Father and Covenant-Keeping God who is always faithful to His Word - fulfilling every one of His promises and prophecies in due time (Jos. 21:45, Exo. 2:24-25, Ps. 18:6 & 34:15-17, 2 Tim. 2:13). As the time of fulfillment draws near, the LORD prepares His own, keeping every one of His Faithful people strengthened, multiplying us in every way as He judges our oppressors and redeems us for His service, even as He comforts we His Children, with His Love, Grace and Presence (Exo. 1:7, Ps. 105:23-24, Acts 7:7).
Therefore, let's stay faithful, patient, and committed to Christ's calling, hoping in our Creator; for soon we will testify of the fulfillment of His promises, prophetically declared for our good as Children of God.

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, YHWH, Abba Father, and Covenant-Keeping God, who never fails, yet fulfills every one of Your promises in due time - for You are always there for me, fighting my battles and conquering every war rising against me - blessed be Your Holy Name. I know soon I will surely testify of Your awesomeness at the fulfillment of Your promises in my life,
Amen.

From Acts 7:17

FAVORED AND DELIVERED FROM TROUBLE

Being a Child of God by faith in His Word, you are favored among men, endowed with His Divine Wisdom and presence, for His glorious works; for no one can hinder the revelation and fulfillment of His Word in Your life (Dan. 1:17). So, keep hoping, even in challenging times, for the LORD is with you and He plans to give you a glorious future, putting all oppressing you to shame before your eyes, in due time (Jer. 29:11).
Also, when God arises to show you favor amid your struggles, it will require faith to receive, yet be beyond your expectations, even as the manifestation of His works subdues every oppression of the wicked, to glorify you and show favor to the world (Gen. 41:39-44).

PRAYER: Thank You, Heavenly Father and Eternal King of Glory, for delivering me from trouble and shame, placing me in a position of honor to glorify Your Holy Name. Please continue to fight my battles and conquer every force rising against me, so I may never stop testifying of Your awesome love, as a favored one, delivered from every trouble, in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

From Acts 7:9-10

COVENANT OF CIRCUMCISION

By faith, we are Children of Abraham through Christ the Promised Seed; the circumcision of our flesh is a sign of the covenant established between God and Abraham, the father of faith, so we are separated from other men as people of God, preserved for His glory (Gen. 17:10-13). Also, as Christians, circumcised by Christ in the Spirit to stay separated from the lust of the flesh and live for God, worshipping Him in Truth and the Spirit as Heirs of the Father, we are reborn to glorify His Name (Rom. 8:14-16, Phil. 3:3, Col. 2:11-14).
Moreover, the covenant of the circumcision of the flesh makes us favored among men, enriched with enough wealth to keep us sustained on the surface of the Earth, and the covenant of the Spirit, unites us at with God the Father, through His Son whose blood was shed for the redemption of our souls, so we may live forever, in the Spirit, worshipping the LORD in Truth as Sons and Daughters of God, anointed for the continuous growth of His advancing Kingdom (2 Cor. 3:6).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Ever-Gracious Father, for the covenant of circumcision made with Abraham, the Father of Many, and that of the Spirit, established by the blood of Your only begotten Son, so I may remain united in the Spirit with You, even as I live on Earth obediently testifying of Your Divine presence - showing Your Love by the manifestation of Your Grace and Anointing through me,
Amen.

From Acts 7:8

REDEEMED TO SERVE GOD

The judgment of the LORD redeems His people - serving and glorifying Him in our bodies and spirits, which belong to Him alone - and puts the oppressors of His Children to shame so we, called by His Name, may dwell in His presence, where joy and peace are in abundance (1 Cor. 6:20). "Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve," we are delivered from every bondage and captivity to a life of self-sacrifice, solely to the LORD, who justifies the Faithful in Christ Jesus, and preserves the humble in Spirit, to serve as His Holy Temple, consecrated to offer sacrifices of praise to God (Matt. 20:28, 1 Cor. 3:16, Heb. 13:15).

Therefore, we should stay committed to our Christ's calling, living to the fulfillment of the Great Commission, as the Redeemed of the LORD, gifted with the Holy Spirit to do the will of the Father on Earth as it is in Heaven, so we may abide in God's presence as members of the Body of Christ, serving Him with all our strength and might, forever.

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, LORD, Heavenly Father, for I am redeemed by Grace through faith in Your Living Word to serve in Your Vineyard, fulfilling the Great Commission for the Salvation of souls. Please keep me motivated as I stay determined to serve and worship You with all my strength and might,
Amen.

From Acts 7:7

PROMISES A LONG WAY OFF

Jehovah, the Covenant-Keeping God, never fails but fulfills His promises to all who love Him and keep His commandments (Deut. 7:9, Luke 1:37). Even when it seems impossible before people who can't see the future, it's always possible with the LORD; for whatever He says, He will do - only hold on to your faith in His Word, and you will never be disappointed (Jer. 32:17, 27).
So, don't be worried about tomorrow, afraid, nor discouraged but have patience and faith in the Word, Jesus as God's Son, for all He has prophesied concerning you will surely come to pass, in due time, for there is nothing too hard for God to do, when we don't quit (Heb. 6:12).

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Abba Father, and Covenant-Keeping God, who never falls, yet fulfills all of His promises from generation to generation, blessed be Your Holy Name. LORD, I trust in You, and I know I will testify of the fulfillment of Your promises prophesied concerning my life in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

From Acts 7:5

LEAVING ALL IN OBEDIENCE

We are called by the Father through the revelation of His Redeeming Word to walk in the path of Truth and Righteousness, leaving every worldly relationship, position, and inheritance that may hinder us from reaching our destined position of glory, prepared for all who stay faithful and lovingly obey His commandments (Gen. 12:1-3, Matt. 5:30, John 14:15). Being dedicated to our Christ's calling requires dying to self-life as His Disciples, chosen and given the Great Commission to continue the work of Salvation, as ambassadors of God's Kingdom on Earth (Luke 14:26 & 33).
Therefore, leaving false and temporary comfort for everlasting peace and joy in the presence of the LORD is necessary so we may present ourselves to God and not be distracted, as one approved of Him, to live in the fulfillment of His Word, promised to all who obey Him (Deut. 28:1-14, 2 Tim. 2:15).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, LORD, Heavenly Father, for calling and choosing me to live for Your glory and fulfill the Great Commission as an Heir of Your Kingdom. Please keep me empowered as I leave worldly treasures and relatives in obedience to Your Word,
Amen.

From Acts 7:2-3

THE FACE OF AN ANGEL

Preaching the Gospel and revealing the Truth, makes the sons of men feel guilty for their wrongdoings; for, "it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart," bringing the humble to repentance, while hard-headed people persecute the Righteous in Christ Jesus, falsely accusing God's Children, living to the fulfillment of their Christ's calling (Acts 4:12, Heb. 4:12). We should not be afraid, for God is with us, defending us before any persecuting counsel as we stay committed to serving as channels of His living Word, to all (Ps. 46:7, Acts 18:9-10 & 23:11).
Also, the presence of God in the Faithful, makes our faces unique, like Angels to the eyes of all who are ready to judge us, declaring our innocence, being one with Christ who is the Righteousness of God (2 Cor. 5:21, Phil. 3:9).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, LORD, the Defender of the Righteousness and Redeemer of the Faithful, for making me gracefully endowed with Your presence, even in front of those seeking to persecute me for the sake of the Good News which I proclaim. Please keep me strengthened and determined to live to the fulfillment of the Great Commission you have given me, till my last breath,
Amen.

From Acts 6:13-15

NO ONE CAN RESIST TRUE WISDOM

God's Wisdom and Spirit, present in His Anointed, can't be challenged, for it's beyond the understanding of anyone whose sole intention is self-centered on his personal views and interests. Oppressors seeking false Witnesses to persecute ministering vessels declaring God's Salvation and Love towards men, may arise for this reason; yet with the Holy Spirit advocating for the Righteous in Christ Jesus, we shall overcome because they will never find any justification to punish us (Matt. 26:59-60).
So, let's stay faithful and committed to our calling in Christ, conforming to His image, for we are safe in the Hands of God, and no one can take us away from Him (John 10:28, Rom. 8:38-39).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Heavenly Father and Awesome God, for the Divine Wisdom You bestowed on me through the Gift of the Holy Spirit in my life. Please keep me strengthened to overcome every oppression of the wicked against my faith and love for You, with the Truth, as I stay determined to proclaim Christ for the Salvation of souls,
Amen.

From Acts 6:10-11

FULL OF GRACE AND POWER

The Grace we receive through faith in God's Word, proclaimed by His Anointed, keeps us filled with His Power, imparted through His chosen ones as we diligently serve in submission to the teachings of Christ, declared for our good (Acts 8:14-17). By this, we become channels of God's miraculous works on Earth, revealing His Love and awesome wonders to all, for the continuous growth of God's advancing Kingdom (Acts 5:12-13).
Therefore, as one called in the Name of the LORD, serving in His Vineyard, you are full of God's Grace and the Power to meet others with their spiritual needs - only stay committed to discipling and bringing souls to repentance - for, as they receive the Gospel by faith in Jesus, they will also experience the impartation of the Holy Spirit, making you fruitful as they also reach out to others with the Great Commission.

PRAYER: Thank You, Lord Jesus Christ, for in You I am full of Grace and Power, reaching out to all in need of Salvation and Divine anointing. Please keep me strengthened and Divinely favored to continue with the Great Commission you've given me,
Amen.

From Acts 6:8

MULTIPLYING THE NUMBER OF DISCIPLES

By living to the fulfillment of the Great Commission given to every Christian and ministering vessel of the Holy Spirit, God's Word will continue to grow and multiply the numbers of Disciples called in Christ Jesus, bringing priests and devotees of even man-made tradition and false beliefs into repentance, submitting to God by faith in His Son (Mark 16:15-16, John 3:2). Spreading the Gospel yields fruit for God's advancing Kingdom and restores all who receive the Truth by Grace through faith, so the Father may be glorified in the Son, as we remain faithful in His service (John 15:8, Col. 1:6).
So, let's not relent in spreading the Word of God, reaching out to every soul in need of Divine restoration, redemption, and total transformation, from the influence and captivity of the forces of darkness, to faith which always overcomes; for as we stay committed to our Christ's calling, we will stay sanctified as channels of His Living Word, directed how best to keep declaring His pure Love and Grace to all.

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Heavenly Father, for making me an evangelical Priest, commissioned to reach out to all, in Your Holy Name. Please keep me empowered and Divinely guided as I continuously spread the Good News of Your Love and Redeeming Grace,
Amen.

From Acts 6:7

MINISTERS SHOULDN'T LEAVE GOD'S WORD

Attending to the spiritual and physical needs of others in the Body of Christ is necessary for the unity and continuous growth of God's advancing Kingdom; yet, as channels of God's Word, ministering in His Holy Name, it's never desirable to neglect our Christ's Calling or designated ministries for any other service which might hinder us from living to the fulfillment of the Great Commission personally given to us (Rom. 12:10-11, Phil. 2:4). Realizing that growing Christians need moral support, practical help, and provisions, should move every vessel of God to bring up others through discipleship lovingly, so they may assist in rendering essential services as they grow in faith. This way, channels of God's Word will never wear out, trying to please God and love His people (Exo. 18:18, Deut. 1:13).
Therefore, we should "give ourselves continually to prayer and the ministry of the Word as good stewards of the manifold Grace of God," and we as parts of His body, will stay strengthened to reach out to all whom the Father has assigned us to bring to His Divine presence (1 Pet. 4:9-10).

PRAYER: Thank You, Ever-Gracious and Loving Father, for calling and anointing me to remain a channel of Your Word and Love, to all. Please keep me empowered and focused to serve in my gifting as I stay determined to proclaim the Gospel to all nations, in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

From Acts 6:2-4

CEASELESSLY TEACHING AND TELLING GOOD NEWS

Every Christian born of God in the Spirit is called, chosen, and ordained to teach and preach of the firstborn Son, whom God caused to suffer as a guilt-offering, yet has His life prolonged in fulfillment of Scripture, "Jesus as the Christ," by grace ceaselessly, through the Great Commission and empowerment of the Holy Spirit, reaching out boldly, to all who have ears to hear (Ps. 22:22 & 26, Isa. 53:10, Mark 16:15, Luke 4:18-19 & 21, Acts 4:31). We are made ambassadors of Christ and Children of God, "speaking the things which we have seen and heard," by the revelation of God's Word in the Spirit, so that many who are ignorant or are dying may receive restoration and a new life as they faithfully receive the Gospel of Truth and God's Salvation in the Christ (John 5:19, Acts 4:20).
Therefore, let's not relent in our Calling in Christ, yet live to the fulfillment of the Great Commission given to us, through our faithful service, done for God's glory as channels of God's Living Word, and we will always abide in the comfort of His Love and eternal peace (Ps. 115:1, Is. 54:10, 1 Cor. 10:31).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Heavenly Father, for calling and anointing me to preach and teach Your Word to all ceaselessly. Please keep me strengthened through the Holy Spirit and favored in all ways needed to live for Your glory, gaining souls for Your advancing Kingdom,
Amen.

From Acts 5:42

WORTHY CAUSE TO SUFFER FOR

"Brothers and Sisters, count it all joy when you fall into various trials," or are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, "for great is your reward in Heaven; for, so they persecuted the prophets who were before you" (Matt. 5:10-12, Jas. 1:2-4). This makes faithful Ministers take pleasure in reproaches and distress for Christ's sake, knowing the LORD strengthens them in weakness; for tribulation produces patience and perseverance in good conduct, which rekindles our hope in Christ, and makes us perfect like our Lord (Rom. 5:3-5, 2 Cor. 12:10).
Jesus spoke to us for our courage and peace to be found in Him who has overcome the world; although, "you will have suffering in this world;" so, "do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and pleading with Thanksgiving, let your request be known to God," our Father who protects hearts and minds, "considering that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is going to be revealed to us," as Overcomers in Christ Jesus (John 16:33, Rom. 8:18, Phil. 4:6-7).

PRAYER: Thank You, Lord Jesus Christ, for counting me worthy to be among the chosen, called to serve in Your Vineyard, living to the fulfillment of the Great Commission, no matter the challenges! Please keep me strengthened as I stay committed until the end, knowing that the Kingdom of God is guaranteed to all who are suffering for Your Name's sake,
Amen.

From Acts 5:40-41

KEEP AWAY FROM PERSECUTING OTHERS

We should always avoid persecuting others or engaging in useless religious arguments, so we may not be influenced by the Accuser, "to fight against God," unknowingly, for no one can overthrow the manifestation of God's Power in the life of His Anointed (Titus 3:9). The LORD'S awesome plan at work, should not be challenged, for He is God who gives Wisdom, so no one can succeed against Him nor condemn His Anointed worker (Prov. 2:6 & 21:30, Is. 54:17, 1 Cor. 1:25). Therefore, we should not be involved in the victimization nor silencing of any ministering vessel proclaiming the Name of the LORD, for anyone who oppresses the Children of God, persecutes Christ who is one with the Father God whose Spirit is living in them (john 10:30, Acts 9:1-5, 1 Cor. 3:16).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Awesome God, for helping me to understand that no one can stand against Your Power and Authority. Please keep me focused on my Christ's-Calling and never be involved in the persecution of any ministering vessel, so I may live to the fulfillment of the Great Commission you gave me,
Amen.

From Acts 5:38-39

WITNESSES TO CHRIST'S VICTORY

The Divine presence of the Holy Spirit in us, "bears witness with our spirit that we are Children of God," makes us witnesses to Christ's victory through the revelation of God's Word in our lives (John 15:26-27, Rom. 8:16). Also, the miraculous signs and wonders done by the LORD through us, ministering vessels of the Holy Spirit, declare the Messiah's victory and authority over principalities and powers, making all who stay obedient, according to His will, witnesses to His eternal reign (Heb. 2:4).
So, let's keep ourselves worthy of God's Word, living to the fulfillment of the Great Commission given to us, and every soul who faithfully receives it will become spiritually revived and equipped to proclaim the Gospel, as fellow Witnesses of Christ's victory (Acts 10:44).

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Abba Father, for granting me, through the Gift of the Holy Spirit, to testify of Christ, bearing witness of His victory, for the Salvation of all who receive it, by faith. Please help me to reach out to all in need of the Good News so I may continue to testify of Your redeeming Grace, as a Witness to Your victory in Christ Jesus,
Amen.

From Acts 5:32

LIFTED TO GOD'S RIGHT HAND

Jesus Christ who was, "put to death by hanging Him on a cross," was highly exalted and, "received up into Heaven," by the Father, to sit at His right hand as, "both Lord and Christ" (Mark 16:19, Acts 2:36). Through the precious life's blood of the Messiah, God gives remission of sins to all who repent and faithfully receive His Word in obedience to His Divine will on Earth, as it is in Heaven, "according to the riches of His grace" (Matt. 1:21, Eph. 1:7).

Therefore, our Heavenly Father highly exalted Christ, "and bestowed on Him the Name which is above every name," bringing every principality and power to their knees at the mention of Jesus, which makes, "every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Phil. 2:9-11).

PRAYER: In the Name that is above every other Name, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, whom the Father exalted for His glory, I'm saved and forgiven as I confess Christ before all, receive Him into my heart, and renounce sinfulness to live in His righteousness alone; blessed be His Holy Name forevermore,
Amen.

From Acts 5:30-31

OBEYING THE WORD, FIRST

We are meant to love each other and need to set examples in the Body, in showing respect for and, "submitting to one another, in fear of the Messiah" (Rom. 12:10, 13:7, Eph. 5:21). Yet, we must understand that obeying God and placing Him first, before anyone else, is necessary, so we will always remain in right standing with God; for those holding positions, even at a place of worship or in government, are sometimes influenced by their interests, which could be against our faith as Christians (Matt. 6:33). Sometimes the Truth doesn't look good for those who we remind of it, but they can't stop it from continuing (Matt. 27:24-26)
Therefore, we must understand that it's always right to listen to God and live in the fulfillment of His Word by obeying Him, even when it seems difficult in the world or us to do so, for He's our Creator, and we are nothing without Him (Acts 4:19).

PRAYER: Thank You, LORD, Heavenly Father, and Creator of all things, for making me humble to live in obedience to Your Word, as I stay committed to putting You above my desires and every declaration standing against my faith. Please help me to live continuously in obedience to Your will, no matter the oppression of the wicked, in Jesus' Name,
Amen.

From Acts 5:29

SPEAKING WORDS OF ABUNDANT LIFE

Everyone born of God in Christ Jesus and circumcized in the Spirit, is commissioned to speak the words of God which give Life to all who receive His Son, for the LORD is with the anointed, delivering them from trouble, so nothing may stop the chosen ones from sharing testimonies of their redemption (Prov. 11:8, Mark 16:15, 1 John 5:11). This way, souls are reborn as they receive the Truth into their hearts, making them know God's Love in Christ Jesus who gives everlasting Life to all who believe in Him (John 3:16, 10:30, 17:3).
So, let's continue to stand and speak, spreading the redeeming words of Christ, which transform lives and renew the mindsets of all who faithfully receive this Good News (John 6:63 & 68).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Heavenly Father, for saving me from the captivity of the wicked and restoring me by grace, through faith, to testify of Your redeeming Word. Please keep me strengthened to reach out to all who need the revelation of Your Word, so I may continue to live in the fulfillment of the Great Commission,
Amen.

From Acts 5:19-20

FAITH IN THE MANIFESTATION OF REAL POWER

At the declaration of God's Word and the manifestation of His Power, the faith of many who are seeking redemption and breakthroughs revives for their eternal Salvation; for a man's determination to receive the restoring Grace of our Loving Father and Compassionate LORD, will lead to the atmosphere of miracles, where he will be delivered (Matt. 9:20-21, Acts 2:43). The presence and Power of God in a ministering vessel, obediently glorifying the Name of the LORD, makes those who need God's saving Grace seek His Divine intervention through the chosen, called by His Name (Matt. 14:35-36).
Essentially, the Divine manifestation of the Omnipotent God and Creator of Heaven and Earth, through His anointed ones, consecrated for His mighty works, renders everything in contact with them useful for God's glory (Acts 19:11-12).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Ever-Gracious Father and Miracle-Working God, for calling me and making even shadows useful for Your wonderful works; blessed be Your Name. Please keep me strengthened to reach out to more souls who are weak in Spirit so their faith may awaken and their spirits revive through the manifestation of Your Word in me,
Amen.

From Acts 5:14-16

HIGHLY REGARDED

Being of service to the LORD, worshipping Him in Truth and the Spirit, even as we live to glorify His Name from the depth of our hearts, we will always be regarded by those who are humble and sincere. Some may be afraid to declare the Truth, affirm the Power of God, or confess Christ in public because of threats from persecutors; yet, they will honor and respect us, ministering vessels of the Holy Spirit because of the Power and Authority of God manifesting in and through us (John 9:22, Acts 2:47).
Moreover, oppressors may rise against us because of the fear of losing their subjects with whom we are sharing the Gospel of Salvation and the honor we receive by grace through the manifestation of God's Power: still, they will never have any justification to persecute us but let us go, as channels of God's miraculous works, revealing His Grace, Power, and Authority, which no one can challenge - so, "let's not neglect assembling together but encourage" it, for the continuous growth of God's advancing Kingdom (Acts 4:21, Heb. 10:25).

PRAYER: Thank You, Holy Father, for placing me in a position of honor among men for Your glory through Your mighty works. Please continue to manifest Your Grace, Power, and Authority as I continue to preach the Good News of salvation, which transforms lives and redeems souls, even as I'm set apart, in Jesus' Name,
Amen

From Acts 5:13

CHANNELS OF MANY MIRACLES

As Christians and faithful Children of God, ministering in His Holy Name, we are channels of His signs and wonders, called and anointed to declare Him to the World (Acts 4:30 & 6:8). Our Heavenly Father declares His Living Word for the Salvation of souls through the manifestation of the Holy Spirit who bears witness of both our Sonship and His Power working in us, experienced as miracles done according to His own will upon all who fear and have faith in Jesus (Acts 2:43, Heb. 2:4).
Moreover, the signs of the LORD's Chosen, called in His Name, are visible for all to see, through miraculous transformations and perseverance as they boldly share the Good News of Salvation to all, enduring for the redemption of many (Rom. 15:19, 2 Cor. 12:12).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Omnipotent God, for calling and anointing me as a channel of Your miraculous works on Earth, even as I constantly proclaim Your Word to anyone who listens. Please keep me empowered, patient, and eternally preserved for the continuous growth of Your advancing Kingdom,
Amen.

From Acts 5:12
