The Sovereign Lord will show his justice to the nations of the world. Everyone will praise him! His righteousness will be like a garden in early spring, with plants springing up everywhere. Isaiah 61:11 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Bore (Isaiah 40:28 The LORD Creator ) that You have planted the seeds of holiness in my mind, spirit and life.
Thank you that You constantly are pulling any weeds out that may choke Your precious flower.
May I be blessed to spread Your holy seeds to all those I come in contact with.
I thank You and humbly request this in the name of the greatest Gardener of all, Jesus Christ. AMEN

When But the time is coming—indeed it’s here now—when true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and in truth. The Father is looking for those who will worship him that way. John 4:23 The Holy Bible, the New Living Testament
Jehovah desires that our hearts are one with Him. That is true worship.
It is not in doing good works ( although when directed by the Holy Spirit that is an act of loving obedience ).
It is not of giving money, although that is an act of loving commitment.
It is not in singing songs, although when the heart is in harmony with our Heavenly Father that is a reaction to that loving experience.
True worship is when our spirit and Jehovahs are intertwined like strands of rope. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Speaking from personal experience that is the most awesome experience you can ever be blessed with and I look forward to worshipping my Beloved Heavenly Father, Best Friend, Jesus and Amazing Teacher, the Holy Spirit, for eternity in the Heavenly home they have prepared for me.
Prayer: Oh my Beloved Jesus Pyyrand (Jesus my best friend John 15:15 ) how I long to spend eternity walking and talking with You, my Beloved Poppa Jehovah and magnificent mentor The Holy Spirit. I pray that it will occur soon because my heart aches to spend eternity with You. I pray this in Your loving name. Amen
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love fill your heart today and every day. Joseph a son of Jehovah

For simpletons turn away from me—to death. Fools are destroyed by their own complacency. Proverbs 1:32 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
I find it happens slowly without you even realizing it.
It is the same with the individual as with a nation.
Just look around. Even twenty years ago you would not see the filth on TV that you see today. We call it tolerance but it is filth.
Today we see homosexuals in Boy Scouts as scout leaders because we have to be tolerant of their lifestyle and then the scouts getting sued because children are being abused by these disgusting creatures. We call it tolerance but it is filth and innocent children are getting hurt because of it.
“People don’t drift toward holiness, they drift toward compromise and call it tolerance, and drift toward disobedience and call it freedom.” D. A. Carson
We see folks living as they want to live instead of the constraints of civilized society and now we see the break up of families and folks stupidly going in debt of which they will never get out of. That is the reward for your freedom.
We see liberoltards suggesting there be no constraints on illegal drugs and then cry baby because of increasing poverty and increasing crime. Instead of trying to get them off of the drugs and becoming contributing members of society.
The further we get away from Jehovahs guidelines of what is right and what is wrong, the closer we get to destruction of the individual and of society. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah KalEl (voice of God Isaiah 30:21 ) for speaking the truth to me and for blessing me with Your Divine guidance in my life. It may not be politcally correct but it is certainly Christ correct. I praise You in the name of He who always lived a life of truth Jesus Christ. Amen
May the light of Jehovahs truth always guide your steps. Joseph a son of Jehovah

At once the father cried out. He said with tears in his eyes, “Lord, I have faith. Help my weak faith to be stronger! Mark 9:24 The Holy Bible, The New Life Translation
My Love, there are certain parts of my life I refuse to surrender unto You. It is because of lack of trust that You can or will deliver me from them. Please forgive me and strengthen my complete and total trust in You. As well Poppa, these destructive things have been a part of me I am afraid to let them go. Please bless me with Your gentle but strong assurance You have something better to replace them with.
I pray this prayer in the name of He with whom my faith in will lead me to Your Heavenly home, Jesus Christ. Amen
May you be blessed with the faith to let go and let God purify you of your hurt, anger and worry. Joseph a son of Jehovah

In the morning, O Lord, I will direct my song and my prayer unto You and will look up. (Psalm 5:3)
To My dear cherished Poppa : Good morning Poppa This is the day that You have made and I rejoice and be glad for the gift of it.
With gratitude, I thank You for preserving my life for one more day.
With gratitude, I thank you for Your ultimate gift of love for me, in the form of Your Son and the sacrifice of His life on my behalf. Because of this overwhelming gift that I often cannot comprehend, I humbly submit to You.
I know Lord, that I am a mere human and cannot instruct You, but you Lord bless me with The Holy Spirit to instruct me.
So teach me Your ways that I may rely on Your steadfast faithfulness. Teach me to number my days and to use my time wisely. I don’t know what this day holds, but I know that You hold the day.
It was you that laid the foundations of the Earth and therefore understands every part of it. I know that you keep the sun in the sky, the stars in place, and have created this Earth for me to inhabit and enjoy.
Throughout this day, may I be always be keenly aware of Your presence in everything I do – as I commute to work, drop children off at school, keep house and speak with my neighbors.
May my life be a living example and may others see Christ in me.
There are many that are hurting in this world – may I be a salve to someone today Lord, in a way that I can’t even imagine.
May my words be seasoned with salt and minister grace to all that hear.
May my actions be aligned with your Word.
I pray for wisdom that is peaceable, gentle, and approachable, with lots of mercy and fairness. You said an unlimited supply of wisdom is available to me if I simply ask, I so humbly request for wisdom to know how to deal with the many people and situations that will cross my path.
I pray for protection throughout this day; protect from harm and evil; go before me, to the left and right of me and behind me. Guide my steps so that I walk worthy of Your calling throughout this day. May I always be sensitive to Your promptings – whether it shows up as a gentle tug or a strong conviction. I pray for reconciliation in families, in nations and to You.
I pray that all may come to know you and be reconciled back to You.
Poppa, you know my faults and my flaws, please forgive me for being unkind with my words and my thoughts; forgive me for being self-serving; forgive me for holding on to old wounds instead of giving them to You.
Please forgive me, Poppa. When I am overwhelmed, confused, unsure, and restless, help me run to Your Word, The Holy Bible.
May your Word come alive to me so that it is a living guide in every situation I encounter this day.
Help me, Poppa, to remember the promises of your Word and bring the right passage to my remembrance for the situation I encounter. I acknowledge Poppa that I need to spend more time with You reading and praying so that I am prepared for whatever the day brings. Poppa I know that your Word is indeed a light unto my feet and a light unto the path You have chosen for me to walk this day .
Please remove fear and anxiety. from my heart and mind . As believers You have not given me a spirit of fear, but of love power and a sound mind. So when I are fearful, please remind me of Your love for me and use that love as the impetus to love others and see situations differently; may I tap into the power that you have given me, for I am never alone because You have not left me comfortless.
May Your wisdom be the underpinnings for my sound mind.
May I remember that I do not have to be anxious and when I am tempted to be anxious or worrisome, may I verbalize my concerns to you and then leave them there as You taught me to do. Worry does me no good and limits me, and You do more with my worry than I ever could. So please help me to turn all of my anxious thoughts and nerve-wracking situations over to You; to truly do that and trust that You are working. That You are working all things together for my good because You love me; that You are working in ways that I cannot comprehend because Your ways always supersede mine. And that in this working You are molding me continually into masterpieces fit for Your use.
Thank You for increasing my faith and capacity to love You by being loving towards others just as You are loving towards me.
As a child of yours Lord, I know that I am Your masterpiece though sometimes I feel so far from it. Please help me to remember my worth in You when I’m faced with challenging situations.
When I feel depressed, help me to remember that I am fearfully and wonderfully made in Your image , a replica of You and that You loved me so much You thought that I was worth dying for.
I do not know anyone that would die for me, but Your beautiful Son, my best friend did, and I’m eternally grateful and humbled for His supreme gift of love towards me.
For the unseen, Poppa, I thank you. You are beyond understanding, You are abundant, you are mine, and I am Yours. I totally and completely submit everything in my life to You today,
I humbly request this in the name of He who humbly went to the cross for me, Jesus Christ. Amen.
May your heart, mind and feet walk hand in hand with Christ this day. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Prayer: Thank you Jesus Ganan (The Lord is Our Defense Psalms 89:18) that because You had enemies pursue You, You understand what it is like to be hounded by the wicked.
Just as You stood for what is right and opposed what was wrong You had more enemies than friends. So, You understand what we experience by the wicked in our society.
Just as You encountered many phonies trying to lead the many astray You know what we have to deal with, with the politically correct liberals in our society today trying to pollute our childrens minds.
Because You have encountered all these wicked attacks You know how to protect us from them and how to give us the weapons to defend ourselves from them.
If need be, You send angels to protect us. No matter what they do to our earthly bodies our eternal spiritual bodies belong to You and at the proper time, You shall send angles to usher us into our eternal Heavenly Home.
Because of these truths I am encouraged to go out into the dark world and shine Your light to all those that are encountered. Those that are receptive You will guide into the light as well. That that reject Your light You shall protect me from.
All praise and glory unto You my mightiest Warrior King. I Your name I exalt Thee. Amen
‘May the Lord bless you and protect you. May the Lord smile on you and be gracious to you. May the Lord show you his favor and give you his peace.’ Numbers 6:22-27 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation

The Father is the One Who judges you by what you do. 1 Peter 1:17 The Holy Bible, the New Life Version
We all come from dysfunctional families, that is why we all need Christ.
Yes, we all have inherited addictions like alcoholism and bad traits like stubbornness but that does not excuse our behaviour.
When we surrender to Christ, He burns those off and replaces them with Holy addictions, like desiring sharing what it is like to spend time with Jesus instead of being a tongue wagger- gossiper and depending upon the Holy Spirit to bless us with self control instead of stupidly going in debt buying things we do not need.
This is not a one off experience but one that lasts a life time.
I have walked with Christ for forty years and He is still burning of undesirable traits and replacing them with righteous ones.
“Do not remember the former things, Or ponder the things of the past. “Listen carefully, I am about to do a new thing, Isaiah 43:18-19 The Holy Bible, The New Living Version
Now do not be discouraged when those around you – especially family and old friends – laugh at you when you begin this transformation experience. Many will vilify and hate you. You will have to walk away from them and towards Christ. You are responsible unto Christ for your actions, not them.
“Above all the grace and gifts that Christ gives to his beloved is that of overcoming self.” — Francis of Assisi
It is extremely difficult but the big three are there to help you, encourage you, and guide you. They are of course: Jehovah our loving Father, Jesus Christ, our best friend and the Holy Spirit our teacher, guidance Councillor, healers, comforter, encourager and strengthener.
“Self is the opaque veil that hides the face of God from us. It can be removed only in spiritual experience, never by mere instruction.” — A. W. Tozer
Listen to them as they guide you on the difficult road to Heavens Gate instead of those that are on the Highway to Hell. “
Do you get excited about investing the time, talent, and resources God has given you this day, so on that day you will hear Him say, ‘Well done good and faithful servant?'”Terry A. Parker
I do not care what he says, she says or they say, I care about what Christ says. And then obeying His wise voice. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah, Jesus and Holy Spirit ‘Immeku (The Lord Is With You – Judges 6:12 ) for blessing me with Your continuous presence as You transform me into the beautiful child You desire for me to be. I exalt You in the name of the most beautiful Son, Jesus Christ. Amen
But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. 2 Thessalonians 3:3 The Holy Bible New Living Translation

Help me to spread Your fragrance wherever I go. Flood my soul with Your Spirit and life. Penetrate and possess my whole being so utterly, that my life may only be a radiance of Yours.
Shine through me, and be so in me that every soul I come in contact with may feel Your presence in my soul.
Let them look up, and see no longer me, but only Jesus! Stay with me and then I will begin to shine as You shine, so to shine as to be a light to others.
The light, O Jesus, will be all from You; none of it will be mine. It will be You, shining on others through me. Let me thus praise You in the way which You love best, by shining on those around me.
Let me preach You without preaching, not by words but by my example, by the catching force, the sympathetic influence of what I do, the evident fullness of the love my heart bears to You. Amen.
—Inspired by John Henry Cardinal Newman’s own prayer, prayed by Mother Teresa daily after holy communion.
May you be blessed with many opportunities to shine the light of Christ’s love to others this day. Joseph a son of Jehovah
In my distress I prayed to the Lord,and the Lord answered me and set me free. Psalms 118:5 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
There has been so many times in my dedicated service unto our Heavenly King where the stress was so bad it felt like I was going to literally explode. On my knees with rivers of tears rushing down my exhausted cheeks and shaking hands lifted to the Heavens I called out unto our Beloved Poppa in Heaven to release me from this pain, anguish, frustration, and exhaustion.
Most times He refused.
Instead He answered me with the same phrase that washes all the distress and exhaustion from my body and spirit and left me completely enveloped in His Divine peace and love. “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Divine grace is described as : the free and unmerited favoror the recieving of goodness from God The Free Dictionary
Jehovah may not free you from your circumstance but He will walk with you through them and you will be blessed with loving and respecting Him ever more.
When Jehovah puts you in the furnace of affliction, He is right in there with you. Joseph a son of Jehovah.
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah-‘Immeku (The Lord Is With You Judges 6:12 ) for walking with me through all my trials and tribulations, sorrows and snares. We have walked this road so many times before that I have complete and total confidence in Your presence whenever that painful road must be travelled again. I exalt You in the name of He who has experianced all that I have and so much more when He walked amongst us, Jesus Christ.Amen.
“We are Christians and strangers on this earth. Let none of us be frightened; our native land is not this world.” —St. Augustine of Hippo
