Jesus Calling: June 12

Let Me Help you get through this day. There are many possible paths to travel between your getting up in the morning and your lying down at night. Stay alert to the many choice-points along the way, being continually aware of My Presence. You will get through this day one way or the other. One way is to moan and groan, stumbling along with shuffling feet. This will get you to the end of the day eventually, but there is a better way. You can choose to walk with Me along the path of Peace, leaning on Me as much as you need. There will still be difficulties along the way, but you can face them confidently in My strength. Thank Me for each problem you encounter, and watch to see how I transform trials into blessings.

I Corinthians 10:10
English Standard Version

nor grumble, as some of them did and were destroyed by the Destroyer.

Verse Thoughts
KJV translates grumble as murmur. We live in a world of murmurs. Murmuring signifies the speaking against a person or thing, out of dislike, impatience, or discontent. I have begun to stay clear of social media because it is mostly murmuring and I find myself being grafted into us against them. Personally, I think Satan enjoys this because there is no love toward one another.

Luke 1:79
English Standard Version

to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
    to guide our feet into the way of peace.

My Prayer
Lord, I need your help through this day and every day. Some days I think I don't know where I am going, but I know your Spirit leads me, so help me to trust in that each day. I need to let your spirit control me and guide me through each day, each moment. Thank you for providing me life and grace and then providing me the means to trust you and guide me each day. It is hard, but help me to be more thankful for the trials and problems that come my way and realize that they are there to teach me. Like Job, I can welcome the bad with the good.

  1. Lorde you never seem to amaze me. I wrote in my devotional just mere seconds ago. I said sometimes being here by myself makes me feel sad. I have walked away from purpose on the homestead routine with the dogs things to do always. You have given me much here but it's discipline I lack when I was with my husband I had to do things get motivated get out of bed. I feel bad sometimes. Not wanting to get up I just don't feel well. Lord I wrote those things because today I just felt as if this morning I wasn't going to even make it through the day. So much has changed in my life. And now it's just me alone. But here you were as soon as I opened up the devotional telling me let me help you get through this day. There are many possible paths to travel between you getting up in the morning and laying down at night. I wept I wept I wept when I read that Lorde. Thank you thank you thank you what more of an answer do I need. I will get up I will make the most of my day and I will seek you during. What will I do without you lord but could I do without you thank you

      Asking for prayers for my husband. He has been sick for a week, having to go into work and his company has just been bought out. A lot of changes. Thank you God for these problems and thank you for walking before us. We love you and thank you for taking such good care of us.
      We trust in your promises. Sending up prayers for each of the JC family and thanking God for his love and blessings. We are very loved.

    5. I hear you unknown😊my husband and I are alone too, and I feel like that sometimes also, my daughter, husband and child moved out of our house recently after being living with us for 7 years, oh how I miss them and more than anything! My grandchild Aaron, but I realize that they got to have their own home and I’m thankful for that but it’s very hard to adjust to the change, but I know that The Lord has control of our lives and He sees my broken heart and he is the only one that can mend itπŸ™πŸΌ yes! Without Him we would have it more difficult to navigate through this life, you’re not alone sister, He is with you every single moment of your life watching over you, every step you takeπŸ™πŸΌπŸ˜Š as He’s watching over all of us who have entrusted Him with our lives. He is forever faithful!

  2. Just wanted to give a praise report and thank everyone for your prayers. My daughter and family returned safely from an overseas trip! Satan would nudge me at times and say,"Well, you haven't heard from your daughter when you thought you should. Gee, maybe something happened; something probably is wrong!" I would just confess that the JC FAMILY prayers were covering my prayer requests and that I served an Awesome GOD!! Got the call from my daughter that they were home safely! I immediately told satan he was nothing but a liar and a loser! My Hubby's back surgery went well and he is recuperating! Praise the Lord!! Jan, Sassy Mom, TJ,Norah, Phoebe, Anonymous, Unkown, and others that prayed- all those prayers covered my circumstances and gave me great peace and comfort! Those prayers meant so much to me. Thank you, thank you for being such Great Prayer Warriors!! Psalm 84:11 "The Lord is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly." Jesus is our shield from failure!! So thankful in Kansas

    1. JJ, I'm glad to hear everything turned out ok and that your daughter made it home safely. Not many things worse than worrying about a loved one. Satan likes to mess with us but we can't allow him to. Also glad to hear your husband's back surgery went well. I will pray for a quick and complete recovery.

  3. I am so blessed and thankful to hear of the many answered prayers. JJ, Sassy Mo, TJ, MadFox...all of the Anonymous' - my JC Family: God Bless you and thank you for your prayers and know you are always in mine. I love how we are constantly encouraged to 'stay alert,' and to remember that He is there to guide us, protect us & our loved ones. We have a choice: do it without murmuring or trust Him to guide us. The verse from Luke 1 is my goal each day, "to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace." My choice is to either come home totally wrung out or give it to God throughout the day and know He has the answers. As Sarah said, "You will get through this day one way or another."
    We had a funeral yesterday - following the joy and light from the wedding weekend, it was a contrast for sure. Yet, there was much laughter at this funeral b/c all who knew the man knew his love for life and his great sense of humor. I was reminded again, that laughter does good, like a medicine.
    So, I thank you, Father, for being with me closer than my very breath. That each thought is a choice: murmuring, whining and full of fear or light-hearted, trusting, knowing 'the rest of the story.' I will choose to trust You, Lord. You have the answers, not me. It is my job to listen, obey and trust. And then to share the victory which You provide.
    God's richest blessings to all of you and yours, my JC Family. May our "Praise Reports," continue as we hold each other in prayer and stand against the wiles of the devil.

  8. Ive been there, Starry, and life gets better. You are right that you have to just keep on tryin' and truckin'. One thing that helps me is to realize that every human being on this earth has to deal with trials and tribulations--so why would I think I shouldn't go through things (and long ordeals also)? Life isn't perfect but our thoughts and actions can make it beautiful despite our huge, big, small and tiny problems.

  9. I so love my JC Family! VICTORY, Sassy Mom - so many prayers were answered with your daughter's victory. Feeling anxious about tomorrow. Traveling to the 'big city,' and for the last 22 years, I've become a Country Girl. An old, country girl. When did this hapen?? I, who was once so fearless and bodacious! And here I am, awake at almost 11:00 pm worry about tomorrow! Silly Girl - Woman - STOP! I actually called my boss and shared my fears and was told that, "No worries - there will be other staff to travel with you. It's OK - you'll be fine. Good God - I was once the one calming others' fears. But, reading tonight the answered prayers. What do I have to fear? What do I have to dread? Standing on the promises of God - I will be fine. Thanking God for all of the victories I see/read when we band together - Prayer Warriors! NOTHING! So, I am going to bed. And I'll wake up alert, resolved, ready for the day and the next - it will be OK. Love to all of you. Good Night. :)

  11. JC: "Thank Me for each problem you encounter, and watch to see how I transform trials into blessings."

    I've been in New York, all week. The "problem" of travel in the CV19 world "blessed" me with seeing my daughter after 6 months. My role is assisting struggling business owners. Finishing up yesterday morning, a colleague needed help a few hours away, so, I drove there. In 30+ years in business, I've had a cell phone. Never lost one or had one stolen. Yesterday, I was passing materials between 2 cars and placed my phone on top of the car. Yes, you guessed it. I drove a very short distance and it finally slid off.

    I feared immediately what happened because my music stopped via Bluetooth to the car radio system. Plus, I couldn't find the phone in the car when I parked at a biz supply store. As most know, a cell phone for business travel is essential, nevermind the hassle of replacing one, but my "problem" became a "blessing". A local Subway shop was in the same center as the biz supply store. I drove 3 times the short few blocks hoping to see the phone. It was gone. However, I assume no more than a minute or so after it slid off, a driver saw the phone in the road, and stopped to retrieve it. 20 minutes of looking I gave up and went inside the biz store. I needed a service done and one of the persons there overheard me say "one of those days" and I relayed what I thought happened to my phone.

    "Oh, I was just at subway, and a driver found an android phone in the street, maybe it's yours." It was! A young lady driver for Subway saw it and said, "I know someone is freaking out!" I was peeved at how much hassle my "problem" at Verizon would take and be. I insisted on "blessing" her, $20. She added while she couldn't get in the phone my email address was on the lock screen and she had emailed me too. What she doesn't know is that I've been in the service business my entire career and I will be writing the local GM and/or President of Subway to say she "delivered". I wished her well and said she was a Godsend and blessing. And the today's JC message! I had to post. The end of the story... She blushed and finally said okay to the $20 I offered. Problems can be blessings in His kingdom. Find your blessing today that started as a problem. Godspeed and Amen.

    9. When I truly "let go and let God" there is Peace and Trust and good outcomes. It is amazing how sometimes it's lots of things that come together for good at His hand. It's like the satisfaction of putting together a hard puzzle when we can see how He solved our problems. Well, it's way beyond that, it's seeing faith at work. It's praising His Holy Name. It's experiencing joy. God is always on the move in many mighty ways, may we all notice, experience and praise Him for today's unexpected blessings. In Jesus's name I pray.

    12. So grateful to have been led to this page; read the devotional and getting ready for work realize I can’t find a set of my keys…prayed and remained calm while searching along for a lead on them-as I was about to take this as a lesson and change my knob and lock, a shampoo bottle fans into the tub- head and shoulders. The song head shoulder, knees and toes comes to me. Toes, toes…keep searching from the knees down. Didn’t have time to grab the later to grab the new doorknob when I find them behind a table Leg…haha! On bus to work now (a bit late, but worth the lesson) and open my phone to read this devotional again to see the comment about the lost wallet. Blessings on blessings to you all today, may you let go of what is no longer serving you and allow yourself to be led to His peace through trials which He turns to triumphs!

    13. Many times through the years since you posted your cell phone story, MadFox, you have inspired me to Let God Help me get through this day, or this loss.
      I say aloud to myself, Remember MadFox's cellphone! And almost immediately, I look up to where my Help comes from.
      Same whenever I pass a Subway!

    15. Humbled by so many kind words here. Had not thought about this in a long time. God did answer an unspoken and unthought prayer. I assumed that I would spend time getting a new phone. Am almost embarassed that I did not STOP and pray. But that makes the story all the more amazing as this silly servant did not ask but God provided a miracle time-saver and aggravation-saver for me. I will share this more now from that standpoint. He blesses us even when we don't ask. Love the ways of our Father, Amen.

  14. Good morning Jesus, I don't know where You are going today, but wherever You're going, I am coming with You, declaring Your Word and giving You thanks with my whole heart and mind. You are my all-good, all-powerful, and all-loving Heavenly Father, whom I see everything under Your control.  Whatever I encounter this day, however You desire to direct my steps, I TRUST You to get me through it.

    Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love,
    my love will fall and fail, but Your love Father, never will.

    "For I have placed my trust in You."
    As the psalmist is very intentional here, so am I because trusting You is an act of the will.

    "Show me the way I should go",
    I pray, Show me, Father, which way I should go today,

    "for to you I entrust my life."
    I say, my life is Yours, Lord, and I trust You with everything (Psalm 143:8 NIV).

    It is indeed 'good to proclaim the unfailing love in the morning, and faithfulness of God our Father in the evening (Psalm 92:2). May we choose to walk with Him along the path of peace, leaning on Him despite any difficulties we face along life's journey and thank Him for ALL things (good or bad), we encounter. He promised to transform our trials into blessings!

    Loving Father, We turn towards You for directions throughout this day and thank You for never leaving our side. We give You all the praise and glory for Your unconditional Love and Faithfulness. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

    Blessings, love and peace to all.

  16. Goodmorning All! In reading todays J.C. I cringe a bit about the part that there will be difficulties, I must prefer the ones that leave that part of my life out at least for a moment. But it's good to be reminded and then when it comes what to do with it. To be reminded early that difficulty ( things diverting from my plan, or being judged as thumbs up or down) never are viewed this way by God. God knows what we need and sometimes I need the last things I want to get me to the best place! I pray so many prayers and sometimes the route to the answers require a difficult lesson or process. I have to trust God to know what is the best way for my day to go. Oh but I dont usually like it, that's the part of me that needs repair work I suppose. God used my yesterday in many unusual ways, most of which were not on my to do list, yet so many rich blessings that I would never have imagined. Thank you Lord for each gift which was wrapped in human flesh by either an unexpected phone call, text, email, fb post, or direct encounter! I specialy thank you for ministering to my son in a mysterious way yet allowing us to know just enough to rest. Thank you Lord for securing my husband at the true head of the household without the well meaning distractions and suggestions by me. ( lol). Lord you are ordering our days, shifting things around, putting in place and removing. Sure there may be some difficulty involved but Jesus I welcome the change and praise you for your intervention done with perfect Love!
    Praise God as I try to relinquish the results to Him with Hope for our families future . God bless all of you with peace today. Thank you Jesus for calling!

    1. Fern,
      I loved your last sentence and it made me smile. I was so happy to hear how much good God is working in your life and also in your son. That he is open to being ministered too is to God's glory. Be patient because God is busy connecting all the loose ends of your tapestry as He weaves his masterpiece. This may take a while and you may have many difficulties along the way. but I see His faithfulness in your life and the fruit of sincere prayer. Keep looking up Sister, from where your help cometh. Praying always for you and Dan and your good husband. God is making good changes in your life, and your heart is open to receive them. Lots of love!

    3. Wonderful post, Fern. The only reason difficulties are difficulties is because things are not the way we want them to be or think they should be. (I speak from experience.) If ever we follow Jesus admonishment and stop judging things from the standpoint of whether we like them or not, it is easier to go with the flow, His flow and maybe even at times your husband's flow when it is in accord with His flow. (Great comment, ;-))

  18. Murmuring, against God is one thing. But I found myself yesterday and this morning murmuring against those you do evil. I hate the devil and his ways being worked in mankind. But even in this, I need to entrust these things and myself to God, and pray for those who do evil.

  19. Thank you, Lord for this day. The message today was just what I needed. I am so not accustom to the "new norm", like many of us. I am missing my family and the visits of my grands. Living in isolation, to a degree is not easy. I cherish people walking on the courtyard or opening their blinds in the morning. But, as the words state today, God is with us. God knows what we feel. We are never alone.
    I pray to stop grumbling about my situation, but appreciate the journey. Thank you for this wonderful Jesus Calling Family. God is Always on time

  20. (II Timothy 1:12b) As Paul is suffering for proclaiming the gospel and encouraging young Timothy in the opposition he is facing in his own calling to proclaim the gospel, he then inserts a 'but'. In spite of the circumstances, 'I am not ashamed, for I know the One in whom I have put my trust, and I am sure that He is able to guard until that day what I have entrusted to Him (or what has been entrusted to me)'. Which is the correct translation? Probably both, the trust in our Lord is a mutual experience. Paul trusts Jesus with his life and Jesus will guard it well. Jesus entrusts Paul with the mission of proclaiming the gospel to the Gentile world. By the Holy Spirit, that is being guarded as well. Such is the nature of our relationship with our Lord, one of mutual trust. MadFox's post above is not about a cellphone, it is about the mutual trust between MadFox and Jesus. Jesus guards the trust we put in Him so well and He guards that in which He has entrusted to us equally as well. All is well!

    God be with you. With love, Bob

  21. Thanks to all who prayed for my dear Tanya. She was able to endure a 10 hour surgery this past Tuesday. She knows you all have been praying for her and her Medical Team. When I went to visit her today, the first words out of her mouth were: I am grateful. I am so blessed. Please thank all who prayed.
    On Tanya's behalf, we thank God for success and we thank Him for you and your prayers. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

  23. Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. (Ephesians 6:10-11). Be alert. Continue strong in the faith. Have courage, and be strong. Do everything in love. (1 Corinthians 16:13-14). "This is my command--be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the LORD your God is with you wherever you go." (Joshua 1:9).

    Father, thank You for the encouragement that Your presence provides me. You inspire and empower me with the light of Your Spirit. I'd be so lost without You. Thank You for being in my life. You complete me. As long as You are with me, anything is possible. I am grateful to be able to lean on You for anything as I depend on You for everything. Help me keep my eyes on You first and foremost in my life and when I am distracted, bring them back to You Lord. You are the most important aspect of my life. I bless, praise, and rejoice in You Lord continually and always. Thank You Jesus. In Jesus name, I pray, Amen.

    I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do all this through Him who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:12-13).

  36. The Lord will guide you continually, giving you water when you are dry and restoring your strength when you are weak.
    From the beach, Dolphins seem so playful. They leap. They jump. They play. They talk to one another. Play is as important to dolphins as Dolphins are to one another.
    Dolphins are very social creatures who establish strong bonds. They care about, and for, one another, making sure their infirm stay fed. Whenever necessary, they take their infirm to the surface to breathe.
    In these and many other ways, Dolphins reflect God's designs. As today's devotion reminds us to do, Dolphins stay alert to the many choice-points along the way, seeming continually aware of His Presence. Why then, oh why can't I?
    Isaiah 58 instructs us to do those works that most please our Lord: free the oppressed, share food, shelter the homeless, meet others' most pressing needs. Remarkably, Dolphins do these things naturally, connecting with other Dolphins, communicating with other Dolphins, helping other Dolphins, whatever the cost to themselves. Given their playful nature, we may have to work at remembering their bravery.
    When we reach out with sincere worship-filled hearts to help meet others' needs, we receive God's Blessings.
    Dear Heavenly Father God,
    Would you help us show the compassion of Dolphins?
    Along the way, when situations and circumstances  are difficult for us, would You help us face them confidently in Your strength?
    Would You help us see your Guiding Hand throughout all of our days as we watch to see You transform our trials into blessings?
    In other words, would You show us the way to be more like Dolphins?
    And, just as You do for the Dolphins, Thank You for also sustaining us in both our work and in our play. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

Jesus, Help us stand on You through the storms of life that threaten to pull us out of Your presence and Peace. You are the Center of our lives. Let us do our best to keep it that way through each day. Thank YOU.

  55. Let us invite God to enter your life shining in every part or do you have some closed rooms or closets of your life where you are afraid what will happen if you fully swing the doors open to your troubled hearts? Don’t be afraid. Only be fearful of doubting God’s grace and love would not help. Jesus is “to shine upon those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death.” Let His light, His presence, shine in you. As the sun rises, the light shines upon those in darkness so that they can see. Light remains and grows stronger. What a beautiful description of God’s purpose of bringing light and love to the world and our own hearts.

  57. Romans 8:9-18 AMPC
    9 But you are not living the life of the flesh, you are living the life of the Spirit, if the [Holy] Spirit of God [really] dwells within you [directs and controls you]. But if anyone does not possess the [Holy] Spirit of Christ, he is none of His [he does not belong to Christ, is not truly a child of God].
    10 But if Christ lives in you, [then although] your [natural] body is dead by reason of sin and guilt, the spirit is alive because of [the] righteousness [that He imputes to you].
    11 And if the Spirit of Him Who raised up Jesus from the dead dwells in you, [then] He Who raised up Christ Jesus from the dead will also restore to life your mortal (short-lived, perishable) bodies through His Spirit Who dwells in you.
    12 So then, brethren, we are debtors, but not to the flesh [we are not obligated to our carnal nature], to live [a life ruled by the standards set up by the dictates] of the flesh.
    13 For if you live according to [the dictates of] the flesh, you will surely die. But if through the power of the [Holy] Spirit you are [habitually] putting to death (making extinct, deadening) the [evil] deeds prompted by the body, you shall [really and genuinely] live forever.
    14 For all who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.
    15 For [the Spirit which] you have now received [is] not a spirit of slavery to put you once more in bondage to fear, but you have received the Spirit of adoption [the Spirit producing sonship] in [the bliss of] which we cry, Abba (Father)! Father!
    16 The Spirit Himself [thus] testifies together with our own spirit, [assuring us] that we are children of God.
    17 And if we are [His] children, then we are [His] heirs also: heirs of God and fellow heirs with Christ [sharing His inheritance with Him]; only we must share His suffering if we are to share His glory.
    18 [But what of that?] For I consider that the sufferings of this present time (this present life) are not worth being compared with the glory that is about to be revealed to us and in us and for us and conferred on us!
    Hebrews 12:1 AMPC
    Therefore then, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses [who have borne testimony to the Truth], let us strip off and throw aside every encumbrance (unnecessary weight) and that sin which so readily (deftly and cleverly) clings to and entangles us, and let us run with patient endurance and steady and active persistence the appointed course of the race that is set before us.

  58. Good morning, JC Warriors. I’ve been silent here for a couple of weeks, but have been praising and reading God’s words in other avenues. I’ve also reached out to one of our pastors who is also a wife and a mother. She has given me wonderful guidance and support.

    My husband’s aortic aneurysm is at the size that surgery is on table. It was also discovered that he has a bicuspid valve which is congenital. Doctors have said that God has taken care of him to be his age and NEVER known he had this defect. The valve works “abnormally” well. We were praying for a miracle that the valve was tricuspid (normal), but the test last week gave us God’s choice of miracle - it works abnormally well. We are still dumbfounded that with all the CT’s for the aneurysm he’s had in the last 2 years that the valve issue wasn’t noticed.

    We are thanking God daily for this issue being found. Because it’s hereditary, our children will have to be screened. They do not know it yet.

    I humbly ask for prayers (1) for us to continue to praise God in the midst of this valley. (2) shrinking of the aneurysm- it’s not common, but it can happen, and I know that nothing is impossible with God. (3) our children don’t have the bicuspid valve. (4) the referral process to Cleveland Clinic (a “center of excellence” for this type of surgery) is quick.
    In Him,

    7. Dear SC! Praying and thanking God for shrinking your dear husband’s aneurysm and continuing to grant him a well functioning bicuspid valve and your children will not have this abnormal valve. Two of our children have bicuspid valves and they are both feeling well although one of them is overweight and under stress as the unemployed breadwinner of his family. God is faithful so just keep exercising your trust muscles. Rest in Him.
      Father God, Thank You for covering this dear family with your healing and faithfulness and answer all our prayers in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

  59. Been praying this week for guidance and support in a couple decisions I need to make and things to do that aren’t always pleasant. I’ve been walking forward one step at a time, trusting and waiting to hear God’s answer and receive His blessing. I woke to wonder and worry until I read today’s devotion.
    Made me realize the need to: 1. Be still and Wait on the Lord, 2. To continue to trust and 3. Be thankful for the many blessings I have and for the things that I don’t. To put my things in perspective.
    So, I pray answers come soon and that I can be the light while I wait for His guidance, walking obediently in faith, thankful for his faithfulness, grace and mercy.
    Matthew 14: 27 & 30- “Take heart, it is I. Do not be afraid. “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?

    I also ask for prayers that my daughter will be allowed to go fully remote at work so that she may move back home where she can get the support she needs.
    Thank you all! Peace be with you.
    ShalomπŸ™

    1. Dear Rich --- You got my prayers for you and your daughter's circumstances. I just call down the Glory of the Lord and the Flood of the Blood of Jesus over all of you. Our God is faithful and He watches over His word to perform it.! He makes a way when there doesn't look like there is a way! I just call on the Name of Jesus,
      who changes everything. He has a way for you, Rich and your family, plotted out on your pathways. HALLELUJAH!!! Great Abundant Life and Blessings to you! You are a Great WARRIOR in God's Army! GOD ALWAYS WINS. THESE ARE GLORY DAYS NOT GLOOMY DAYS!

    2. Thank you JJ! You really have a gift of the Spirit in your prayers! They are so powerful and uplifting. You are definitely wearing the full armor of God! There was actually a bit of light today with some of the circumstances :) Be blessed.

    3. Yeah Rich! We will praise God for that bit of light. One of my absolute favorite verses In the MSG translation John 1:5 --
      "The Life-Light blazed out of the darkness; the darkness couldn't put it out." The darkness CAN'T out do our God.The Light of Jesus burns brilliantly, illuminating the path ahead and dispelling any fear or uncertainty. This Divine Light is unconquerable and eternal, offering hope and guidance. No matter how overwhelming the darkness may seem, it can NEVER extinguish the powerful,
      Life-Giving Light of Jesus. I Decree and Declare, Rich, you will hold on to this truth, and let His Light guide your steps and uplift your spirit. In Jesus's Name, For His Honor and His Purposes, AMEN and AMEN.
      Standing with you against the darkness. He is the God who causes the giants to fall before us! HALLELUJAH!!!

    4. Gathering into JJ’s powerful prayers, dear Rich C for God to flood your path with His brilliant light and fight all your battles for you. He is so much greater than anything you could ever face. And for Him to make a way for your dear daughter to be permitted to work remote every day so she can move back home where she is surrounded by your love and support. Thank You Father for all
      this and for covering them all with your love and blessings and a blanket of peace. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen

    1. My Papa God, I ask You to watch over John's daughter. Grant her health, protection, and happiness. Pleading the Blood of Jesus over her. Surround her with Your love and guide her in all she does. Send Great Blessings to John as he stands in the gap for his daughter. And the JCFAMILY/WARRIORS stand in the gap to protect, pray, and provide strength for those in need. In Jesus's Mighty Name, AMEN and AMEN.
