“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.” —Hebrews 13:5
Jesus Is Just a Prayer Away
Let us lift high the name of Jesus Christ clear across this great nation. Let us give Him the praise, the honor, the respect that He so deserves, for He is so worthy to be praised. We have been engaging in a special season of prayer, praise, and fasting in keeping with Pentecost. We are meditating on Psalm 119:164, “Seven times a day I praise you for your righteous laws.”
Joy Today Ministries is inviting everyone to praise God seven times a day from June 1 to June 14! Those who are facing the impossible, seeking special deliverance, or just looking for spiritual growth are encouraged to join us in corporate fasting from 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Amen. God bless each and every one of you. Hallelujah!
Blessed be the name of the Lord. Let us join together in unity, in one accord, lifting holy hands to heaven, saying, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty.” We come to give You praise, we come to give You the honor, we come to give You the glory, precious Papa God, for You are so worthy to be praised. We lift high the name of Jesus Christ and we say, “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty.”
What are you struggling with, precious friend? The Lord laid it on my heart to pray for us to join together in unity, in one accord, and lift high the name of Jesus Christ—because isn’t He so worthy to be praised?
He’s so worthy to be praised. Let us lift high the name of Jesus Christ. Let us stand tall for Jesus, as Jesus has always stood tall for us.
Precious friend, you know there’s all kinds of craziness going on out there in the world. God bless you, God bless you. He is Lord. Jesus reigns. Papa God is still on the throne, and He is still in control. No matter what’s going on, Jesus Christ reigns—over your life, over my life, over this great nation. Jesus is our Savior, our Healer, our Waymaker, our Light in the darkness.
He is always there. He is the one you can run to when nobody else is there. When you think, “Oh my gosh, what am I going to do?”—guess what? Jesus is there. He is so awesome and so worthy to be praised, and He brought me on here tonight, friend, to let you know that you are so awesome, that you’re His precious child, and there is nothing that your Heavenly Father will not do to help you grow closer to Him.
How to Be the Light When the World Feels Dark
So I have a very quick but important question to ask you, friend. If you were to die this very second, do you know without a shadow of a doubt that you would go to heaven? If you can say yes, that’s totally amazing, that’s awesome, that’s epic. But if you’re wondering and you’re not quite so sure that you’re going to heaven, God brought me on here tonight, friend, to have you check your heart.
Make sure that before you finish reading this blog tonight, you know without a shadow of a doubt that you, friend, are on your way to heaven. It’s time to give Him the praise, the honor, and the glory, for He is worthy to be praised. It’s time to surrender—it’s time to fully surrender to your Heavenly Father and say, “Not my will, but Your will be done.”
It’s time that we just ask forgiveness for our sins. It’s time to quit turning to things and to people, and to draw nigh to Papa God and surrender your life to Him. Hallelujah. Ask Him to come into your heart, to cleanse you, to forgive you of your sins. Acknowledge that He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to the cross—that He died a brutal death so that you and I could be free from everything. Hallelujah.
Blessed be the name of the Lord, for He is so worthy to be praised. Hallelujah! Can I get an amen? You know, no matter what, we have to stand tall. You may be going through it tonight, friend. It may be morning wherever you’re at, but you have to stand tall. And as you stand tall, Jesus will stand tall for you. He will not leave you; He’ll never forsake you.
The One Relationship You Can’t Afford to Ignore
He is my best friend. He’s there when nobody else is there. You know, sometimes you’re going through things and there’s just nobody else there at the time—everybody is busy.
Guess what? Jesus’ line is never busy. He never misses a text message. He never misses whenever you cry out to Him.
All you simply have to do is say, “Jesus, I need You. Jesus, I need You in my life. I need You to cleanse my heart. I need You to help me. I need You to heal me.” Thank Him as He works in your life. Hallelujah. Oh, precious Heavenly Father, we lift holy hands to heaven. We come to give You the honor, the glory, the respect that You so deserve.
And we say, precious Heavenly Father, You’re so worthy to be praised. We are so thankful that You’re our precious Heavenly Father. We are so thankful that You’ve never left us, You’ve never forsaken us. Even when we mess up, precious Papa God, You’re still there. And even though You may say what may—you may spank us and put our nose in the corner—You forgive us and help us to step out of that and to go on.
It’s so funny, because God—Papa God—has a sense of humor. He really does. And even when you mess up, friend, He’s there with His arms wide open saying, “Draw nigh unto Me and I will draw nigh unto you.” He loves you so much. He loves you, friends, so much. You’re each His precious child—His sons and daughters of the Most High God.
Into My Heart, Into My Heart, Into My Heart Lord Jesus
He brought me on here because He wants to make sure that you’ve had the opportunity to ask Jesus to come into your heart—to cleanse you, to wash you, and to fill you afresh and anew with the beautiful Holy Spirit so that your whole life can be transformed like mine. Hallelujah! My whole life’s been transformed and continues to be transformed.
He removes the dross daily, and there’s pruning that we go through. Sometimes it’s not so much fun to go through the pruning, but let me tell you—when you come out the other side of it, you’re a much better person. You’re like, “Wow, I didn’t realize I was acting that selfish,” or “Wow, I didn’t realize that I needed to be more humble.”
You see, we need to be more humble. The Lord’s all about breaking off the spirit of competition and releasing the spirit of completion, because He wants each and every one of you to complete the calling and the purpose that He has for your life. That’s what it’s all about. Being a part of the family of God is one of the most amazing relationships that you could ever have.
But the most key, number one relationship, friend, is for you to have an intimate relationship with your Papa God. It is—you need to work on that daily. I encourage you, for the next 30 days, to give your Heavenly Father, your Papa God, one hour a day—just you and Him: in the Word, in private worship, whether it’s going up on the mountain to pray or going for that little walk or exercising together.
How God Turns Our Messes Into Miracles
Give Papa God your best and watch Him give you His best. He loves to bless you. He loves to give you your heart’s desires, but you’ve got to get rid of sin. So, as we’re on here tonight, I want you to search your heart. Is there anything in your heart you need to get rid of? Is there bitterness? Unforgiveness? Is there sin?
Have you backslidden? Do you need to repent and release it into your Heavenly Father and take the nail-scarred hand of Jesus and step out of that old into the new? Tonight’s a night for you to truly repent, let go of that, and go forward.
Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
God is doing a new thing in your life, and He longs to hear your voice. He longs to fellowship with you. He’s jealous over you—there’s nobody else like you. So take care of you. Tonight’s all about being healthy, wealthy, and wise. God wants to restore. He’s in the restoration business, and it begins with you making sure that your relationship with Him is right on. It’s making sure that your relationship with your Heavenly Father is one-on-one and very intimate.
God wants you to go deeper unto Him tonight, friend. God wants you to go deeper. He wants you to go deeper. He wants you to read more scripture; He wants you to pray; He wants you to worship; He wants you to dance; He wants you to fellowship with Him in the secret place. Because He loves you and He wants that. He wants to give you even a better life than what you currently have.
I Am a New Creation
So He’s releasing the keys from heaven, and the keys from heaven are obedience, private worship, fellowshipping with Him, and spending more time in the Word of God. And as you do this, friend, He’ll open more doors. I decree and declare that your best days are ahead. I decree and declare that you are stepping out of the old and into the new.
I decree and declare that there is change happening in your life. There’s a huge suddenly happening—if you embrace it, if you’ll make the right decision, if you’ll do what you know you’re supposed to do for the Lord. Be obedient, because the level of your obedience determines so much. You just may be that person’s miracle. You may be that one person who cares enough to love your neighbor unto salvation. Hallelujah.
Give love—hugs to your family. Be obedient to your Heavenly Father. Be obedient to your Heavenly Father. Share the love of Christ. I’m sending you all a virtual hug clear across this great nation.
We pray for the President, the Vice President, the leaders, the military, the healthcare workers, the widows, the singles—we’re praying for everybody out there. We pray, Lord, that You send Your heavenly angels to everyone out there to shield them, to protect them.
We decree and declare Psalm 91 over everyone out there: You are their shield, You are their buckler. No harm shall come near them or their dwelling. They will not dash their foot against a stone. You have released Your heavenly warring angels to hold them up, to go before them, to make their pathway straight. Hallelujah.
Key Takeaways
Rest in the presence of the Lord—and don’t forget, love on your family. Blessed be the name of the Lord. Exodus 12: The Lord is applying the blood over your doorpost; no disease or harm shall come past those doors. And hallelujah, you are blessed, you’re highly favored, you’re ambassadors of heaven—so hold that head high, shoulders back. You’re an ambassador of heaven.
Act like it! You’re a very vital part of the army of God, friend. So, get yourself in alignment and hold that sword up. Put on the full armor of God daily, march, and do your part. Watch God bless you, because He longs to bless you. Expand your heart and your mind to receive all the blessings that your Papa God has for you, because He longs to bless you.
Let everyone see Jesus in you—because when they see Jesus in you, and they see you happy and rested and nurtured and the best you, they want a part of that. And that’s what it’s all about.
Thank you, Father God, for releasing Your Holy Ghost fire to each and every one out there. Thank You for sending them ablaze for Your glory. Thank You for using them to produce fruit all throughout this great nation.
Go be the champion God’s created you to be and share the love of Jesus Christ. He loves you, and He longs to fellowship with you even more. We love you. We’re praying for you. God bless you, precious friend.
Winning lost souls is the greatest reward. When you help bring someone to Jesus, that’s the greatest gift you can give to them. Be the example. Love them unto salvation. Hallelujah.
