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.

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

Jehovah El Emeth (Psalms 31:5 LORD GOD of Truth) please bless me with the wisdom to be aware of satans traps and schemes this day.
Please Jehovah Elohe Mauzi (Psalms 43:2 GOD of My Strength) bless me with the strength to resist him and for Your protection against him when he is too strong or cunning for me.
When I stumble please Jehovah El Nose (Psalms 99:8 GOD that Forgave) accept my shame filled apologies and wash the guilt from me that satan torments me with for my weak moments.
In my triumphs may I trumpet Your glory for the victory. Thank you that it is by Your grace Jehovah Jehovah Bore (Isaiah 40:28 The LORD Creator) that I have matured into the child You desire me to be and please continue in molding me to be the child You intend for me to be.
Oh my loving Jehovah Jehovah Immeka (Judges 6:12 The LORD Is with You) may I be blessed to share our walk together with other so as to encourage them to desire to walk with You and to continue to walk with You all the way to the wonderful Heavenly home You have prepared for Your adoring children.
In the name of my big brother who will greet me at Heavens Gate, Jesus Christ I pray. Amen
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love fill your heart today and every day. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life. Psalm 139:23-24 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
I do not know about you but I have no desire for Jehovah to test me. That is a pretty brave request. I have gone through testing and it ain’t fun.
As well, no matter how strong of a Christian you think you are, you are still weak.
Come to think about it, that is a great reason to ask to be tested, to find out any area’s of weakness that needs work on and to not become overconfident.
Jehovah already knows our anxious thoughts and knows how to relieve them, usually for me it is by opening my understanding of Bible verses that encourage and strengthen me.
Sometimes we become complacent in our lives and unknowingly are doing things that are offensive unto Jesus.
We need the Holy Spirit to convict us of these ( do not worry, He is a good, kind and gentle teacher. There is no yelling or screaming. However, when we are obstinate, He will use strong manner to convince us to turn from these destructive habits).
Unlike the world, which is travelling down the Highway to Hell, Christ has an individual road for us to travel the we alone are to travel to our Heavenly Home. That is why we need the guidance of the best path finder, The Holy Spirit. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Please Jehovah Jireth (Genesis 22:14 The LORD Shall Provide) bless me with the Holy Spirit to always provide help to me to remain on the Back Road to Heaven You have chosen no matter how hot and dusty and bumpy it is. I know the ultimate destination is worth it.
I honestly request this in the name of He who followed the most difficult road, the one that led to Calvary, for me, 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. May you be blessed with plentiful opportunities to share these with those around you today. Joseph a son of Jehovah

Today, my Beloved, I choose to receive my joy and strength in You.
Joy in knowing You love me with a Heavenly love as I seek opportunities to bring joy to Your treasured heart.
I know that in the cold dark world out there the devil reigns in bringing chaos and difficulties to everyone’s life but his aim is on the bulls eye of my heart because it belongs to You. He will do everything in His power to destroy our loving relationship.
I have great joy in knowing You are a force field that his evil wicked arrows cannot pierce when I place me confidence in You. Please bless me to never be in such a hurry I cannot be loving and respectful to others even when they are not respective unto me.
Please bless me to be forgiving instead of holding petty grudges and resentments.
I know that I am weak and gullible and as such an easy target for satan .
I also know that no one is as strong nor as intelligent as you. Therefore my loving Poppa in Heaven will protect me from the manipulative schemes of the wcked as I venture through this day. For that my heart dances with songs of praise for You through out the day.
Thank you my love for blessing me with all that is needed to live a victorious life in You and through You this day and every day.
It is in the name of the best Sheppard that guides this little lamb of His to Your Heavenly home that I humbly ask for these blessings and joyfully praise You them, Jesus Christ. Amen
Christ blesses us with love, peace and joy. May you be blessed with many opportunities to share these with others today. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Though you are a lowly worm, O Jacob, don’t be afraid, people of Israel, for I will help you. I am the Lord, your Redeemer. Isaiah 41:14 The Holy Bible The New Living Translation
The worm is a lowly creature that is easily destroyed. It is weak and helpless.
That is exactly the Christian that Jehovah accomplishes the most with.
Those are the ones that do not depend upon their own strength nor wit to accomplish the task our Heavenly King sets before them.
Those are the ones that will stun the world because of Jehovahs power beating within their souls.
Those are the ones that confuse those who are wise in their own feeble minds with the Holy Spirits wisdom coursing through the brain.
Those are the ones whose song of joy, praise, adulation and respect sings like a Heavenly chorus echoing through the Heavens when the guaranteed victory is gained to the Heavenly King. It was He who used His loyal submissive servant to gain triumph which the lowly servant gleefully admits.
The ones who depend upon their own wit or strength satan laughs at as they are as easily beaten as a two year old in a wrestling match against a twenty year old. Oh what a deep cloud of shame and humiliation encompasses them.
When Jehovah calls us to accomplish great tasks it is normal for us finite creatures to experience anything but terror at such a great task. We know our weaknesses and cry out “not I my love for I am weak, send someone else”. This is the one with whom the Holy Spirit accomplishes the greatest with as He fills the Christian with confidence and power and not of ones own disposition.
Then fear flees like a frightened bird replaced with the power and confidence of the Holy Spirit.
Satan and his minions tremble at the sight of one such as these.
Those strong and wise in the world turn and run like scared dogs at the sight of such ones as filled with the Holy Spirit. That and that alone is how a Christian lives a victorious life.
By my strength and wit only failure will be my reward. By submitting to The Holy Spirit victory is guaranteed. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Izuz Wegibbor (Psalms 24:8 The LORD Strong and Mighty) for blessing me with Your undefeatable strength when the foes are too numerous and too strong for me to defend myself against.
Thank you for blessing me with the strength to continue on when exhausted to a great victory for You.
I praise You for Your mighty, yest gentle protective arm around this feeble child of Your in the name of He whose strength kept Him nailed to the agonizing cross to accomplish the most awesome feat of all, salvation to all, Jesus Christ. Amen
May the gentle assurance of Jesus’ sweet love encompass you today and every day. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up. Galatians 6:9 The Holy Bible New Living Translation
We need not travel to some other country to be missionaries. We are to be missionaries right where we are.
“If a man cannot be a Christian where he is, he cannot be a Christian anywhere.” Henry Ward Beecher
Just look around you. How many at your school or work are Christians?
Speaking personally, I have found the best method to be a effective missionary is to walk the walk before you talk the talk. In other words live the Christian life before you begin to preach it.
There is no need for you to take matter into your own hands and decide where to go to be a missionary, that is wrong. You are depending upon yourself, not Jehovah. Most times that only leads to disaster.
Depend upon the One who knows you most so know where to send you so you can be the most effective in bringing His lost sheep into His fold.
Do not put on an appearance of a perfect Christian because that mask will be removed with disastrous affects. Do not be afraid to show your weakness (which is where you depend the most upon Jehovah for) for that make Christianity more appealing to the lost.
PRAYER: Thank you Jehovah Jireth (Genesis 22:14) The LORD Shall Provide for blessing me with provision of opportunities to be a missionary where ever You place me at the right time and right place to share with those whose heart is receptive. I exalt You in the name of He who always shared the Gospel where ever He was whether it was on a hill top or in the local synagogue Jesus Christ. Amen
May you be blessed with abundant joy in your heart filled with love and your life overflowing with laughter every day this year.Joseph a son of Jehovah
“Do not judge others, and you will not be judged.For you will be treated as you treat others.The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged. Matthew 7:1-2 The Holy Bible, The New Living Translation
Yes it is your duty to point out others weaknesses and faults but not the right to be judge and jury. You are to help them in their weakness and ignorance with love and compassion not hard heartedness .
Do you believe you have the right to be judge and jury over others?
If you hold grudges or attempt to take revenge, your own failure is certain. I know, I used to take great pleasure in tormenting anyone who crossed me. But in the end it always boomeranged on me.
Do you have a self appointed critic attitude?
Do you want to get back on me with a vengeance?
Soon you will be angry with everyone and be very lonely and bitter. Holding grudges is like swallowing acid to punish others. Ir will soon slowly, painfully destroy you.
Are you self righteous?
Do you believe you are better than anyone else?
If you are proud and find pleasure when others fail there will come a time when YOU fail and everyone will laugh at you. . You will be humbled.
Do you believe you are self sufficient taking credit for what God has given you?
If you think you are secure in your possessions and abilities, your situation is sure to change.
At one time in my life I had a good job, lots of money and lived the good life. Without warning the factory closed, my money depleted so bad I had to walk knee deep in snow to collect pop bottles and beer bottles to get enough money to buy a loaf of bread and jar of honey. That is what I lived off of for a week. Thankfully that situation only lasted for a few months I could not pay the hydro so being cut off there was no heat in the house. It was warmer outside than in that house. It was the lowest point of my life and still is branded in my mind.
So do not be egotistic and think you are so high and mighty, that you are secure in your riches. You WILL be brought down in the blink of an eye.
Prayer: Jehovah our gracious God. Thank you for the numerous blessing You have so freely blessed us with. Please guard my heart that it does not become arrogant and take credit for the blessing You gracefully give us. Please bless me not to be judge and jury but rather someone who comes along side the ignorant and help them eliminate their wrong manner of behavior. In the name of the One who never judged the adulteress woman Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
The manner in which you judge others, Jesus shall judge you. Joseph a son of Jehovah
May Gods sunshine always bless you with brightening your day with His love, joy and peace.

This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. Hebrews 4:15 The Holy Bible New Living Translation
There is not one experience you are going through that Jesus has not been there, experienced that.
That is why Jesus is the BEST Guidance Councilor there is.
After all, who better to talk with about a problem than someone who has already walked that mile. As well, Jesus loves you, Jesus cares about You. Jesus only wants what is best for you. Who would you go to with a problem but someone like that.
I trust and obey Jesus’ guidance more than I do any man or womans. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer: Thank you Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord is Righteousness) I Cor 1:30 for blessing me with Divine guidance in every aspect of my life. I praise You in the name of the best Guidance Councillor there is Jesus Christ. Amen

If the godly give in to the wicked, it’s like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring. Proverbs 25:26 The Holy Bible, New Living Translation
This means that if a righteous man surrenders their principal to the wicked the words of their mouth is like a spring that has been muddied by someone walking through it.
Just as the water is undrinkable so too are the words of the righteous who has surrendered his Godly principals to the wicked.
Anyone who has walked through a forest on a hot day and becomes thirsty can tell you how frustrating it is because some idiot chose to walk through the stream upstream making it undrinkable for everyone else. I sure can.
So too are the words of the compromised righteous mans words disgusting to those around them.
To surrender your morals to the wicked is to pee in the stream of Gods word. Joseph a son of Jehovah
Prayer:Thank you Jehovah Tsidkenu (The Lord is Righteousness) I Cor 1:30 for blessing me with a strong back bone to not surrender to the wicked and for sending the Holy Spirit to help me in my times of weakness so I do not compromise Your Holy standards for my life. I praise You in the name of He who is the most righteous Jesus Christ. Amen
May the sunshine of Jesus’ sweet love fill your heart today and every day. Joseph a son of Jehovah
