Scripture Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Observation: The devil hates us because we are children of God and our savior is Jesus. We can look around and see what Satan is up to and how he continues to ruin this world and cause pain for Christians. We need to keep in our heart that Satan will loose and the earth will be renewed. We are not sure how long this war will continue to go on, but we know who will win in the end.

Application: To fight Satan all I need to do is follow Jesus every day. To do what He commands me to do and keep God’s commandments. To go through whatever trial I need to go through knowing my Lord is with me and fighting for me. To be a light to those God surrounds me with and to be a good soldier for Christ.

Prayer Dear Lord send me out to the battlefield and give me my orders. May I always be obedient to your commands and know that I’m fighting with you. May I live a life well until I come home.

Scripture Revelation 11:13 In the same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the God of heaven.

Observation: Often times we only give God the glory when we are in our trials. Even the movies only show people praying to God when things are so bad they are no other choices. God should always be on our hearts and not only when we feel He is our only way out of troubles. We should fear God because of who He is and not what He might do to us.

Application: Today as I walk along the strand, I want God on my heart at all times. What I do each day should glorify God and whenever I have the opportunity I need to speak to others about the wonderful Father I pray to each day. My only fear should be that I don’t please Him.

Prayer Good morning, Lord. I’m ready to go out on this beautiful day that You have blessed me with. Dear Holy Spirit be with me and put those you desire me to meet and use me to draw us both closer together to you.

Scripture Revelation 10:6 and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created heaven and the things that are in it, the earth and the things that are in it, and the sea and the things that are in it, that there should be delay no longer,

Observation: Sometimes we forget how big our God is. He has created everything including us and owes us nothing, but we owe Him everything. The honor we have to come before Him is unbelievable and that He can love us is beyond our comprehension. How we can put anything before him should be unreal, but we seem to do it all of the time.

Application: God needs to be on the throne of my heart and the first in my thoughts. I need to love the Lord my God with all of my heart, mind and soul each day, He is the reason I exist. I’m called to serve and serve is what I must do and to stay close and allow the Holy Spirit to direct my life.

Prayer Good Morning my Father I dedicate this day to you as I should every day. Use me to help those you desire me to help and speak through your servant that I my honor the creator of all things, the King of the Universe.

Scripture Revelation 9:20 But the rest of mankind, who were not killed by these plagues, did not repent of the works of their hands, that they should not worship demons, and idols of gold, silver, brass, stone, and wood, which can neither see nor hear nor walk.

Observation: Even after all the plagues some will still not repent. This world is falling apart from the evil that is in it and they still don’t accept God, but refuse to repent. There are people that need to hear the word of God and will receive it, but there are others it doesn’t matter what you say or what they see they will have a hard heart. Jesus says not to throw your pearls to the swine so if people don’t respond to your witness, move on to someone else.

Application: I need to do the best I can witnessing to others, but ask for God’s discernment as I speak. If I see that they are not interested continue on and talk to others about the grace and love of God.

Prayer Dear Lord put those in my path that want and need to hear about your loving grace. Use me as you desire to spread the good news of salvation and help them draw close to You.

Scripture Revelation 8:4 And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel’s hand.

Observation: Our prayers are important to God and He cherishes them. Prayers are our conversation with the creator of all things and that He desires to listen to us. What an honor for us to come before the throne of grace with our love and requests to our Holy Father.

Application: I’m so blessed to e able to pray with others to the Father each day. May I always treat them with reverence as a gift from God. I’m allowed to have special moments in His presence and that I may say these prayers with gratitude for the life he has given me.

Prayer Good morning, Lord, I thank you again for the honor to be able to talk with You. Use me today to do your will and allow me to speak to those you put in my path and that those prayers would be brought up to you as incense, a sweet aroma that would be pleasing to You.

Scripture Revelation 7:17 for the Lamb who is in the midst of the throne will shepherd them and lead them to living fountains of waters. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.”

Observation: My job is to follow Jesus to the living water. To be Shepherded is to follow and trust the shepherd and that is what I’m called to do. He will lead me to heaven and when I get there I will be where I was always meant to be. No longer in turmoil from this world but finally at peace living with the one, I love most.

Application: Each day I need to follow my shepherd’s commands and live the life He has called me to live. Allow the Holy Spirit to direct my path and stay in close contact with Him during the day. I was once that sheep in the hundred that was lost and I need to stay in the fold from now on.

Prayer My Lord thank you for looking for this lost sheep, may I stay close to you as I walk through this earth and be on the lookout for other sheep that may have gone astray. Use me according to your will. I love you and my desire is to please you.

Scripture Revelation 6:4 Another horse, fiery red, went out. And it was granted to the one who sat on it to take peace from the earth, and that people should kill one another; and there was given to him a great sword.

Observation: The scripture indicates that peace was given to us by God since He will be able to take it away. Our peace and joy come from the Lord and you can already see how peace is being taken away from this earth. We continue to see murder growing in our country, but when all the godly are gone and God’s peace is removed how terrible it’s going to be. Jesus the Prince of Peace will no longer be coming to bring us peace, but the end of things as we know it.

Application: We are called to become peacemakers, the sons of God. As I walk today may I do what God as called me to do and be loving and kind to those I meet. In my home I need to bring peace with no conflict and put the needs of others above my own.

Prayer Dear Holy Spirit guide me to be the man that will be e blessing to God and to others. Help me be a man of peace no matter what might happen today and that I will be pleasing to my Lord.
