Yet true godliness with contentment is itself great wealth 1 Timothy 6:6 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Godliness is conforming ones life to Jehovahs will.
Contentment is being satisfied and grateful for what you have.
Therefore, what is being said here is that spiritual wealth that can only come from Jehovah is the greatest wealth of all.
Abundance, or prosperity, is having all that you need to meet any circumstance, with enough left over to give wherever God might direct you.
The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right. Psalms 84:11
When we walk in harmony with the Holy Spirits guidance our gracious Heavenly Father supplies all of our daily needs. Thus, trusting Jehovah at His word that He will meet all of our needs ( not wants) we will not suffer the stress that the world is experiencing at this troublesome time.
If I want the Masters rewards I must be willing to obey His direction in my life. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Jireh ( God provides Philippians 4:19 ) for Your abundant grace that is showered upon me every day as I walk in obedience unto The Holy Spirits guidance.
I applaud You in the name of the greatest spiritual gift You have blessed me with, Jesus Christ. Amen.
May your heart be open and obedient unto The Holy Spirits guidance this day so your day will be filled with contentment.Joseph a son of Jehovah

This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most. Hebrews 4:15-16 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Thank you kindly Jehovah Chatsahi (The Lord is my Strength Psalm 27:1 ) for walking amongst us so You understand the trials and temptations, the tribulations and sorrows we experience in our daily life.
As such, when I come to You seeking help You bless ME with: strength where I am weak and the opportunity to use this strength to help others. The mercy to forgive me when I succumb to my weakness and repent of them.
May I extend that to those who repent when they have wronged me. The gentleness of a loving friend to teach others how to be members of Jehovahs holy family when they are uneducated in the proper etiquette befitting such a noble family.
May I guide others to behave in such a regal manner.
I humbly implore You to grant this petition this in Your gracious name. Amen.
May you be blessed with copious amounts of tutoring at the Masters feet to enable you to be a grand example of a noble family and plenty of opportunities to use them.

So be careful how you live. Don’t live like fools, but like those who are wise. Ephesians 5:15 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Now, how are we to gain wisdom?
Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Proverbs 3:5 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
In every aspect of life, and yes I do mean every aspect the first and most important thing you are to do is to take it to Jehovah and then wait for His advice before doing anything.
Doing this in my life was difficult, yet, it prevented a lot of heartache, pain and suffering in being obedient.
As well, it brought a lot of success in my journey along the road Christ has chosen for me to travel to our Heavenly Home.
There are so many unqualified voices out there that do not know what they are talking about. Yet, there are masses of fools following them like lemmings going over a cliff. No wonder the world is as mixed up as it is. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Emunah (God is faithful 1 John 1:9, 2 Thessalonians 3:3 ) for always being faithful towards this adoring child of Yours with Your wisdom in every nick and corner of my life. It has prevented a lot of needless suffering, heartache and frustration. It has helped me to live a righteous life which is pleasing to You and rewarding for me. I thank you in the name of the wisest of all, Jesus Christ. Amen
May you be blessed with the gift of love, the gift of peace, the gift of joy. May you be blessed with numerous opportunities to share these gifts with others today. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me. Psalm 51:10 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Please Jehovah Mekaddishkem (Exodus 31:13 The LORD that Sanctifies You ) continue Your studious transformation of this rough piece of clay into the masterpiece You have created me to be.
Thank you for the incredible work You have done so far in this Divine transformation.
Please help me exorcist the the despicable ruinous traits that hamper our loving relationship, that prevent me form serving You ever better and that bring pain and suffering to my life.
I meekly request this in the name of He who transformed rough fishermen into world changing fishers of men, Jesus Christ. Amen
Wishing you a house full of sunshine, hearts full of cheer and love that grows deeper each day of the year. Welsh blessing

So Christ has truly set us free. Now make sure that you stay free, and don’t get tied up again in slavery Galatians 5:1 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Have you ever seen paintings of slaves being led in chains.
That is what sin is and destructive addiction.
When we accept Christ as our Savior, He smashes the chains of slavery.
Now that does not mean we can go out and do what ever we want, that will just lead us back into the chains of slavery again.
What it means is that now we are free will servants of Christ. What ever Jesus asks us to do is either for our own good or for the good of others.
Not all chains will be smashed right away.
That would be too much freedom for us to handle.
Some chain may take decades to be smashed and some never be until we reach Heavens Gate.
That is good though as it keeps us dependent on Christ. The more He frees us, the more we love Him. The more we love Him the more we desire to serve Him.
Jesus is the best freedom fighter there is. He always has 100% victory. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Keren Yishi (Psalms 18:2 The LORD the Horn of My Salvation ) for blessing me with Your salvation from terrible addictions, disastrous dispositions and the marvelous freedom that only You can provide. I exalt You in the name of He who is victorious over satan and death, Jesus Christ. AMEN

This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. 1 Timothy 2:3-4 The Holy Bible, The New Life Version
I have encountered too many Christians that are determined to save the world.
Yeah, and then what?
Well, then they say praise Jesus when someone accepts Christ as their Saviour and then walk away.
That is like asking Jehovah to bless you with a child and when the baby is born the parents walk away.
How are they going to learn to live like Christians if you are not prepared to mentor them?
How are they going to learn to serve their King if you do not teach them?
No, that is not someone elses job, you brought them to Christ, now you are to educate them. This is a huge commitment that is going to take a long time, effort and suffering on your behalf. If you are not prepared to make that commitment then just shut up. You do more damage than any good because the newbies are left hanging out to dry and walk away from Jesus feeling angry and bitter towards both Him and His followers.
Bringing one to Jesus is only half of the equation. You must also teach them about Jesus. You must teach them to conform to His will. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Please Jehovah Immanuel (God is with us John 15:1-27 ) bless me to always be there for anybody that You bless me with the privledge of bringing them into Your Holy family as You are always there for me.
I humbly request this in the name of He who always walked with His disciples when He journeyed this earth Jesus Christ. Amen
May you be a blessing unto others as Christ has been a blessing unto you. Joseph a son of Jehovah

“But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.” Romans 5:8 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Please Jehovah El ohay Selichot ( The God Of Forgiveness 1 John 1:9 ) bless me to forgive those who have offended me just as You have forgiven me. Some of the cuts are deep and can only be healed by Your loving balm. Even if they refuse to repent please bless me with Thy Divine love and strength to forgive them for I know it is for my own good.
I humbly request this in the name of He who forgave the Roman soldiers for what they did to Him, Jesus Christ. Amen
Holding grudges only smothers the flames of love and is bad for the body mind and spirit. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Dear brothers and sisters, honor those who are your leaders in the Lord’s work. They work hard among you and give you spiritual guidance. Show them great respect and wholehearted love because of their work. 1 Thessalonians 5:12-13 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Why not give this a try: Say thank you to the stock boys and girls as well as the cashiers at stores. They work hard for little money and receive little gratitude for their hard work.
Give your doctor and thank you card and a home made gift in appreciation for all their hard work. Think about it, they put in long hours and listen to nothing but complaining all day long. That is depressing.
Why not shake a cops hand and thank them for their difficult job. They get crapped on for doing their job and crapped on for not intervening when they cannot.
How about adding pastors, choirs masters, teachers to the list. And you know what?
In doing so, you will find you have a much happier life and mentality.
A grateful life is a joyous life. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Oh, and do not forget to say thank you to our Heavenly Poppa when He blesses you. As well, begin and end your day with saying thank you to Him for all the blessing great and small and see how good of a nights sleep you get.
Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Prayer: Please Jehovah ELOHIM YAKOL (God, the Most Able 2 Corinthians 9:8 ) enable my heart to be gracious and grateful to all those I encounter this day so as to emulate You and be an encourager. I humbly ask this in the name of the greatest encourager of all, Jesus Christ. Amen
The gift of love, the gift of joy, the gift of peace, these are the greatest gifts that can be given. They are given in abundance to all those in Christs family by our Heavenly loving Father to be shared with others.
May you be blessed with plentiful opportunities to share these with those around you today. Joseph a son of Jehovah

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
Whatever is beautiful, whatever is meaningful, whatever brings you joy, may you be blessed with an abundance of it this every day this year. Joseph a son of Jehovah

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

But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus," Ephesians 2:4-6
