1 Corinthians 8:9 But beware lest somehow this liberty of yours become a stumbling block to those who are weak.
O Lord, help us so that our liberty and integrity will not become a stumbling block to anyone but instead, let it be an encouragement that will make them become strong in Christ in the name of Jesus Christ.
Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Thank You Father for sending us a Counselor who will never leave us and for making it possible for us to be among the living celebrating the anniversary of His birth today in the name of Jesus Christ.
And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said to Elisha, ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me. And he said, thou hast asked a hard thing. Nevertheless, if thou see me when I am taken from thee, it shall be so unto thee, but if not, it shall not be so.

What is confronting you today? Is it mountain of sickness, poverty, marital, joblessness, loneliness, rivers of difficulties, none achievement, brethren, there is nothing that will happen on this earth that is new to our God, it might be new to us but remember that it is not new to God. Also, what God cannot do does not exist.

PRAYER: Thank You Lord for bringing us to a new month and for bringing us far this year. Lord, I come to you today to teach me how I can follow You so that I will nomore wander around and have the key I need to open every door in my life so that the glory will be given unto You in the name of Jesus Christ.
