Prayers & Daily Motivator May 30, 2008: There is some improvement you can make today. Make that improvement and your efforts to do so will continue to reward you for a long time to come. There is someone who would dearly appreciate a kind word from you today. Offer your kindness sincerely and often, and you'll find your world growing ever brighter. There is a purpose within you today. Express that purpose through your actions and commitments, and you'll know the sweet taste of true fulfillment. There is a way for you to make a positive difference today. Change the world in your own special way, and you'll find it to be an even more beautiful place to live. This day is filled with many possibilities, and you are here now to live them. There is so much you can do today, and now is the moment to begin. Ralph Marston May 29, 2008: Some things in this world are shrouded in mystery. Some things will always be. The fact that you don't know it all compels you to think. And thinking can be a very productive and enlightening exercise. Those things that are unknown cause you to wonder. And wonder is the source of much richness in life. In what you know and understand, there are many valuable possibilities. In the realm of what you don't yet know, are even more possibilities waiting to be discovered. Look toward what you cannot see, and listen for what you cannot hear. In so doing, you'll find great truth. Ralph Marston May 28, 2008: May 27, 2008: May 26, 2008: “You have truly been in a dark night of the soul and have even fought valiantly for your very life and health. And, you have questioned how the things you have endured have worked together for your good. Consider that humility is a mantle that My people must wear and it is the sign of submission to My will. But, it comes with a great price, for true humility is born out of adversity and complete reliance on My help in times of trouble. Rejoice that you have been tested and found worthy, but you must continue to walk in humility. “Take every opportunity to learn to rest in the sufficiency of My grace. The demands on your time and energy have been extreme, but know that I have strengthened you to do all that has been set before you to accomplish. Never fear, for I am with you to bring you through every trial in victory. “Every revelation of My word and the work of My kingdom is a stepping stone to complete liberty. If you were able to see all truth theoretically instead of experientially, it would be worthless to you. These are the days when every step forward has a monumental impact on your spirit, soul and body. The door is open for your continued progression and freedom. “I will continue to give ample opportunities to declare truth to those who have not had ears to hear. I have entrusted you with responsibilities through which you have been able to demonstrate My kingdom. The affliction that you have endured is working for you a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. When all is said and done, you will be able to see the value of the transformation as the result of this great work. “You have been able to see first hand the miracle-working power of My Spirit in your life to bring you through a time of transition and prepare you to advance. Yours is to completely trust in Me; Mine is to make a way and open the door. Never doubt that I am your very present help in times of trouble. “Every stretch requires faith to move forward. Your faith has been tested and found to be strong because you chose to believe My word. Remember that faith without works is dead, but you have shown your faith by your works. Well done! Because your have shown yourself to be faithful in the things that I have committed to your stewardship and trust, I have opened the windows of heaven and poured out a blessing that is beyond all that you could have imagined. Now, you will have further opportunities to show yourself faithful in greater ways. “I have heard your prayers and have not ignored them, but know that you are still in the process of time. There are still things that must take place before you can break out. This is a season of transitions. Rise above the power of personal desire that would keep you from seeing even the most subtle form of presumption, which the enemy will use to keep you from moving ahead. Release yourself so that you can see the truth and advance in My plans and purposes for you. Leave the future where it belongs and live in the blessings of the eternal now, says the Lord.” Home Pastor Gathers Services F.A.Q.

The enemy has sent deception against you, My people, to undermine your hope. Refuse to allow fear or unbelief to weaken your firm foundation of faith. When in doubt, return to the truth of My word and renew yourself in spiritual reality. I am your very present help in times of trouble, and I am with you to uphold you and bring you through this time of trouble in great victory, says the Lord. Stand strong, be courageous, and do not be afraid. Deuteronomy 33:27 The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms; He will thrust out the enemy from before you, and will say, ‘Destroy!’

There is
There is something new you can learn today. Learn the lesson well and carry the wisdom with you.
Behold, I am opening new doors and providing substantial help and supernatural strength for you to accomplish what you have set yourself to achieve. Do not tarry, but move through these portals expeditiously. I will give you the necessary wisdom and direction required at this time to fulfill your intentions. However, you must establish and maintain valid priorities beginning with godly desires and faith if you are to attain your objective, says the Lord.
Hebrews 11:3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible.

Mystery
There is much you can learn from what you don't know. The questions that have no answers will add great value and wisdom to your life.
Choose this day who you will serve. It is your choice. You can either serve yourself as you see through the filter of your circumstances and grumble and complain throughout the day, OR you can look at life through the filter of My word, have faith, and trust Me to bring you through each moment in complete victory. I am well able to bring you forth triumphant if you will choose to serve Me, says the Lord. Romans 6:16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness?

In good time
Are you looking for instant results? Then you'll likely put forth great effort and expense while encountering much frustration, with no guarantee that you'll reach your goal.
There is a much more reliable and easily accessible way to achieve the results you seek. It is with patience.
Instead of fighting against time and making time your enemy, use time as your friend. Instead of being resentful that you can't have it all now, be thankful that you can savor the process of working your way toward a meaningful goal.
To obtain anything of great value, you must provide great value and exert great effort. Spreading that effort over a reasonable amount of time is a key to dependable success.
Rushing through life is neither enjoyable nor effective. Slow down, spend your time and resources wisely and thoughtfully, and enjoy the journey.
With your efforts steady and consistent, have the patience to let life unfold at a sustainable pace. And the results you seek will surely come to you in good time.
Ralph Marston
I heard the Lord say: The enemy has come at you like a roaring lion eager to devour his prey, but I AM the Lion of Judah, your King. I have given you the power and authority to stand against this attack, and it is time for you to roar back! Do not draw back without a fight, but rather go up against this enemy who seeks your destruction, and I will bring about a great deliverance as I work through your faith and courage, says the Lord. Psalms 22:13 They gape at Me with their mouths, like a raging and roaring lion.

Choose your priorities
Your priorities are not determined by what you say they are. Your most genuine priorities are expressed by what you actually do with your life and your time.
Look around you, and you'll see very clearly what your priorities have been up to this point. Those priorities have brought you to where you are right now.
If something is truly a priority for you, you absolutely are able to find a way to reach it. If it's not a priority, it's probably not going to happen for you.
You can set your priorities and you can change them at any time to be whatever you choose. But merely wishing for something does not make it a priority.
The priorities that are really priorities are the ones that dictate where you focus your awareness. The priorities that truly matter are the ones in which you invest your interest, your attention and, most importantly, your action.
You can follow whatever priorities you choose, and in every moment you are constantly choosing. Remember, as you go through each day, to choose those priorities that will bring the special joy and fulfillment that is yours to live.
Ralph Marston
“It is time to leave behind all things that have brought defilement to your soul and spirit. Offer up your carnal reactions to circumstances on the altar of your heart, and let the purifying fires burn. I am giving you multiple opportunities to arise to a new level of spiritual experience where you can truly live in that spiritual realm of the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Philippians 3:13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead.
James 4:10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
2 Corinthians 3:5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God,
James 1:25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things, which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal
Psalms 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble.
Matthew 25:21 "His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’
Proverbs 16:9 A man’s heart plans his way, But the LORD directs his steps

Never quit
The only way to lose is to quit. As long as you continue to make the effort, you have not lost.
Everyone experiences setbacks. However, those who achieve the most experience the most setbacks because they persist as long as it takes to reach each goal.
Does it ever seem that you are blocked in every direction? That's the time to get creative, become more flexible, and open yourself to the possibilities that are most certainly there.
Sometimes when you get stuck in a rut, the rut can suddenly and unexpectedly run out. What a great opportunity that can be for you to climb out of that rut, look around, and see all the valuable things you've been missing.
Never quit. Use each setback, each disappointment, and each success, as a cue to push on ahead with more determination than ever before.
Never quit, and you will create the life you choose.
