Jesus Calling: September 10

I am always available to you. Once you have trusted Me as your Savior, I never distance Myself from you. Sometimes you may feel distant from Me. Recognize that as feeling; do not confuse it with reality. The Bible is full of My Promises to be with you always. As I assured Jacob, when he was journeying away from home into unknown places, I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go. My last recorded promise to My followers was: Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Let these assurances of My continual Presence fill you with Joy and Peace. No matter what you may lose in this life, you can never lose your relationship with Me. 

Isaiah 54:10
English Standard Version

For the mountains may depart
    and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
    and my covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
    says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
 
Genesis 28:15
English Standard Version 

Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land. For I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.

Matthew 28:20
English Standard Version 

teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.

    JC family, wishing everyone a bless day and lifting up the needs and prayer requests for all. This great God that we serve encourages us to stick closer to Him, He promised to NEVER leave us, no matter what we do or face! His Presence is always with us. NO man can be available to us like JESUS and NO one can be trusted like Him. We have it real good, and it's up to us to take hold and not let go. Whatever this day brings, please remember His promise in this devotion and THANK Him.

    Please join me in praying for traveling Grace and mercy for my 2 siblings that will be headibg back to TN this evening. I trust the same God that brought them will land them back safely in Jesus name. Thank you.

    Stay blessed,

  12. Because I live in AZ, my posts occur after many have already stopped by this sight for the day. Brie suggested that I post a day ahead for those of you in the East who have already visited may have my thoughts. Below you will find a repost from yesterday and then I will try posting a day ahead. I am open to further suggestions. Last Monday, I posted the direction I am taking with my posts for the time being, in case you are wondering.

    THOUGHTS ON INTIMACY WITH OUR LORD

    Creating a sacred space. Churches have sanctuaries for the purpose of providing a sacred space in which worship takes place. When a space is set aside solely for that purpose, it can develop an aura that gives a strong sense of the presence of God upon entering.

    This also can be useful in the practice of personal intimacy with God. Setting aside a space within one's domain where one meets God can further the development of intimacy with God. Much as a sanctuary is for a worshiping community, your space will develop an aura that will increase your soul's feeling of being in the presence of God. Yes, God is with you everywhere but in experiencing God in a sacred space lends to the awareness of the eternal presence wherever you go. Make the space the two of you share in whatever way is a blessing. Use chairs that are comfortable but not too comfortable so you won't find yourself dosing off. Like a church sanctuary, place images around you that draw your attention to God's love and grace for you. Decorate it in a way that draws your heart toward Him who is with you. Make it a sacred space in which only the two of you share.

    For me personally, I have my space outdoors. I find my quiet time is enhanced by breathing fresh air. I place an extra chair in my space to indicate God sitting with me. I light a fragrant candle because Jesus is my light and my salvation and the lingering smell creates a pleasing sense to it all (the olfactories can play a role in this time). Though my space is not free from interruption because the workers on the golf course are driving by on their machines, I turn that into a positive by waving at them as they go by and now overtime, they are looking for me and take the initiative to wave first. So in this space I rendezvous on a daily basis with my Lord, He is sitting in His chair when I get there and sometimes He is waving as He goes by. This is my space. Do you have a sacred space where God and you meet? What is it like? Thanks for sharing.

    God be with you, JC Family! With love, Bob

    1. Thank you, Bob. I love how personal our space with our Papa can be.
      I share a love of meeting at the beach or near water. Bc I have never lived “right there” the beach has always been my temple visit. I journey there with the hope and expectation that Papa will meet me there. I journal, walk, listen, frolic in the waves,and worship in those holy moments.
      Daily, regularly, I have a few other spaces. I typically walk my dogs a couple times a day. And it is my prayer walk. I keep my eyes open for physical things but also the eyes of my spirit for what may surface. My shower is my war room for cancer. I bring every name before God asking for Papa to heal and replace cancerous cells. And then I journal and read either on my couch or outside porch.

      As Sarah reminds us today, we worship an ever present God. I am grateful beyond measure that he faithfully meets me! Surely He is with us always.

    2. Bob (bday twin), what great insights as always! Every person that has a relationship with God and loves Him, should find a space to be with Him, just you and your Father. A quiet space free from distractions et al., there you meet Him in that stillness, pour out your heart and just sit and listen to Him too. Because remember, this is a two way conversation, not one sided. In this quite space, time alone with Him, warms His heart and blesses your mind, body and soul. It doesn't matter where, as long as it's a comfortable space for you.
      Just like Blessings from France, I have a space in my bedroom where I sit flat on the floor to read, meditate, write and pray. The bed may be tempting to fall asleep, but the floor is better for me. TV, phone off, door shut and its just the two of us!
      When given the opportunity to be outdoors by a lake, river or ocean, I also find peace and tranquility in His Presence! Just the beauty of His creation and the power that He is, blows my mind and grants me and rest!

      Stay blessed my brother and keep it coming! The soul can never be fed too much of God's Word!

    3. Thanks Bob! So glad you shared it again! We should all make time in our days to be with Jesus. He is our greatest love. We must nurture our relationship and do our best to remain close to Him. He speaks to us in the silence.

    5. Bob, I am so grateful for the suggestion that you share the night before. Although I am here later than normal, it is a great blessing to read your words.

      My space was on my back porch with a nice wooded area to view and enjoy. Unfortunately it is now all construction zone and no more peace. AH, but the gracious Father is moving us to a new home next year on our lot with a mountain view. (Lord willing ;)) My space is now inside on a comfy chair, cuddled up enjoying time with my Jesus.

      The spirit has been helping me see that peace starts with our thoughts. I am studying from a book by Joyce Meyer: Battlefield of the mind. Pray for me as I go on this journey to fight the devils lies that I am not worthy.

    6. JOHN 21: 12 Now come and have some breakfast!
      None of us dared ask Him if He really was The Lord because we were quite sure of it. Then Jesus went around serving us with the bread and the fish!
      Come and have some breakfast with Me!
      Dear Heavenly Father God,
      My JC Family and I desire to have Breakfast with You. Would You help us be still, know that You are God, and commune with You in Gratitude and in Love? During that time with You, would you help us clear out our mind of plans, schedules, and todo lists, and take in the waves, wiggle our toes in the sand, absorb the sights, smells and sounds, and enjoy a moment with You for whatever it is? For now, would You help us accept Your invitation to "Come" into our Sacred Space with You today, putting aside the busyness of Martha and just be present in the moment with You like Mary? For all of us, I ask. I pray. I thank in Jesus' Name. Amen.

Your Presence fills us with Your Joy and Your Peace on the Beach, and also Here, There, and Everywhere, Any Old Time Of The Day! How Blessed and Thankful we are. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

    10. I found that meeting God everyone morning on the porch before sunrise has become my perfect place. No one is up as I have coffee, listen to the awakening of the world for the new day. It’s made my time with God more special and enlightening.

    2. There is a hillsong worship song spinning in my head. The lyrics say:

      There was another in the fire
      Standing next to me
      There was another in the waters
      Holding back the seas
      And should I ever need reminding
      Of how I've been set free
      There is a cross that bears the burden
      Where another died for me
      There is another in the fire“

      I pray Ruth senses the other with her!

  15. Good morning. I am asking for prayer. Out of a desire to support my godson, I attended his wedding last Friday. While many people wore masks, not everyone did. My concern is that I and my husband may have been exposed to COVID-19. As a 57-year-old woman with asthma--and my husband is a 58-year-old-smoker--I/we are in the high-risk category.In retrospect, attending the wedding may not have been a wise choice. Please pray for our health and healing--and a negative result on our COVID-19 test. Thank you.

  16. Loving Father, Thank You for the truth of Your word and Your never-failing promises both to mankind and the body of Christ. Thank You for being my wonderful faithful Father who watches over me every second of my life. In Jesus name I pray, AMEN!

    What a promise Gen. 28:15 is! Here is a verse that is a source of comfort and encouragement, because it reminds us that God is always in control. No matter what the circumstances are, He ultimately is behind every outcome. When we exercise unwavering faith in Him that all things will work out for our good, we find unparalleled peace of mind. Here, God says to Jacob: “I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go, and I will bring you back to this land. I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” He is telling us the same thing today and because of that, we can boldly declare:

    BEHOLD:- we have a God Who has promised to watch over us, who are His body. He has pledged to protect us, provide for us, keep us. and cherish us.
    BEHOLD:- we have a Savior Who gave His own life for us so that our sins are forever forgiven and we are covered in Christ's glorious righteousness.
    BEHOLD:- we have the promise of an eternal home prepared for us, in heaven.
    BEHOLD:- we have a bridegroom Who is currently sitting on the right hand of the Father Who is coming soon to take us home to be with Himself,

    Heavenly Father, We thank you that:
    “The light of God surrounds us,
    The love of God enfolds us
    The Power of God protects us,
    The presence of God watches over us,
    Wherever we are, God is” Thank You Father!

  19. We have been given notice that we are in stage one as far as evacuation from the fires here in NW Oregon. It has been extremely windy the past few days with trees down causing electricity to go out. As the air is full of smoke, we are to remain inside. Looking out the window this morning there is no wind at all today and the sky.is an erie orange. It seems that all this could be a prelude to something big to happen. Are the times ripe for the Lord’s return? I wonder.

Father, let may the interviewer not only see that Janet is capable and feel a strong work ethic from her but also feel her heart. May Janet's answers flow freely and may they be what the interviewer is wanting to hear and is looking for in a new employee! Your will, Lord, not ours, be done! Thank you, too, Father, that Janet saw this ad and applied! It is surely by Your hand! Amen!!!

  26. Janet, I saw your post today and also this one from a few days ago:

    "I am literally stranded at this point and I don't see any way out at all, but I trust in the Lord with all my heart."

    I don't get to read posts everyday so could you catch me up to date on what you mean by stranded?

  27. Had this prayer from The Chosen 40 Days with Jesus Book 2 today. Sharing it here because I want to declare it again:
    "Father, I've gone my own way and sinned against you. Have mercy on me and forgive my sin. I believe in your Son, who died in my place and then rose from the dead with the power and authority to give me a new life. Thank you for making me a child of God. I now surrender my life to you and your purposes. Give me, by your Holy Spirit, the boldness to confess my faith in you to others and to keep following you all the days of my life. I ask this in your Son's name Jesus. Amen."

We are waiting together on the Lord because we have already seen His faithfulness. Holding onto His Unchanging Hand. So blessed that our dear son from CA will be with us for a week. What a gift! He is looking at places to live here with his lovely wife and baby girl. May God guide him to the perfect home and keep them all safe and well.
    Thank you dear Father for all this and more answered prayers in the Name of Christ Jesus, our Risen Lord. We trust you and we will be patient and remain hopeful, and blessed in Your presence and peace. Amen

I know God already knows where it is so I'll continue to wait on Him. I have looked in every possible place in our apartment, over and over. I'm putting up signs in my lobby and outside my building. Everything is in His own timing. Exercising my trust muscles, and resting in the Lord. Thank You Jesus.

  31. " No matter what you may lose in this life, you can never lose your relationship with Me." So precious! The UK has lost their wonderful Queen Elizabeth ll. She, in a Christmas broadcast acknowledged to the world that Jesus Christ is her Lord and Savior. That's the kind of ruler every nation needs. Not necessarily a 'royal', but a ruler/president or whatever of a nation who acknowledges that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior. So wonderful to know that she has the same relationship to Almighty God that we have. Without Him we have nothing , with Him we have everything we need for this life and the next.

    Surely I AM with you always, to the very end of the age. Let these assurances of My Continual Presence
    (READ: "Always Open" "We Never Close" "24/7" ) fill you with Joy and Peace. Dear Heavenly Father God, I always need what You provide. Please help me freely accept Your Open Invitation and Thank You for it.. In Jesus' Name. Amen.

  37. Dear Family, My Dearest Best Man (only) was admitted to the hospital today due to elevated cariac enzymes. They wouldn't let me stay the night with him. He is very peaceful - humor still fully in tact and I know God has him in the palms of His hands, as He does me and all of us. Our kids are with us and for us. Our daughter even texted, "You are in my prayers, Daddy." He said, "If for not other reason, than to hear those words - this was worth it!!!" We are thankful for your prayers. I'm eating some chicken soup (for my soul as well as my tummy) and then thanking God for a sweet night's sleep. I know my dear husband is already enjoying his. Love and Blessings to all of you. I'll try to keep you posted. God Bless.

Praying that Audra's results will show the doctor exactly what needs to be done to fix her shoulder and that Norah's DH gets good results.

  40. Good morning MadFox🌞. So reassuring that you have us in your prayers. Please include me . I have been battling with breathing issues. Don't really know if it's allergies or what, but it's uncomfortable & the mind conjurers up all sorts of negative, unproductive imaginings. We all know about that. So I run to the Lord for the answer & wait on Him. Still waiting. Praying this day finds you blessed according to His will and good purpose dear MadFox. 🥰🙏🌈

I didn't get to read yesterday's post until after my Devotion this morning and lo & behold you listed the same scripture that I included in my prayer. Psalm 73:26. I sing it too quite often. It must give you peace that your mom knows Whom she has in heaven. She desires nothing more on earth. Full speed ahead to heaven's gate & run not walk straight into Jesus' arms! Hallelujah!!!

  42. Through the LORD'S mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is thy faithfulness. (Lamentations 3:22-23). But the LORD is faithful, who will establish you and keep you from the evil one. (2 Thessalonians 3:3). He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it. (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. (Hebrews 10:23).
