LET THE MONTH BE OF LIVING IN THE ORDER OF GOD

The word of God is His order.
The order of God is a precise direction not to become a victim of disorderliness.
Let the new month be your month of walking in the order of God.
One that knows to remember and prepare is in the order of God to gain and retain the presence of God.
Failure not to remember God will not know to prepare to have an encounter with God.
1 Corinthians 14:40 encourages all, “Let all things be done decently and in order.”
Ask: This month, remembering, preparing before God, and keeping His order shall be your portion not to be disordered and be displaced from living to the glory of God.
The word of God is His order, the source of having faith in God.
Romans 10:17 informs all: “So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”
The character of one with faith is living in the order of God.
HAVING FAITH:
Faith comes by hearing the word of God without ceasing.
Faith will also depart from one that does not give itself, hearing the word of God consistently, continually.
Are you giving yourself to hearing the word of God without ceasing, living in the order of God?
Many are with claim to have faith.
It is not enough to have faith, but one faithful matters and counts, toward living in the order of God.
Knowing about faith is limited, not being faithful, the identity of one that knows the faith, when engaged in giving self to the word of God as a way of life.
So many know about faith but do not know to be faithful and not live in the order of God.
To be living in the order of God is crucial, pleases God.
One living in the word of God is the character of seeking God diligently. 
Living in the order before God is the antidote to disorder.
In every form of the disorder, God does not inhabit.
Hezekiah, the King of Judah, does not have his house in order as Isaiah 38:1 records, “In those days Hezekiah was sick and near death. And Isaiah the prophet, the son of Amoz, went to him and said to him, “Thus says the Lord: ‘Set your house in order, for you shall die and not live.’ ”
In every way of life, lack of order is evidence of the lack of faith that prompts painful consequences.
King Hezekiah turned to God for repentance, and God had mercy on him not to die an untimely death. (Isaiah 38)
THINK OF THIS ABOUT SEEKING GOD DILIGENTLY:
To be faithful is the orderliness to seek God diligently with preparation to engage and experience the presence of God.
Preparation is the demonstration of expectation to experience manifestation.
Preparation is the character of God that will not look away from one that engages in preparation to find Him.
Psalm 147:8 documents the testimony of God with preparation for bringing forth, “Who covers the heavens with clouds, Who prepares rain for the earth, Who makes grass to grow on the mountains.”
John the Baptist prepares for the way coming of Jesus.
Mark 1:2 records, “As it is written in the Prophets: “Behold, I send My messenger before Your face, Who will prepare Your way before You.”
At the celebration of Passover with the disciples, Jesus called His disciple into the order for the preparation for a place, “Then he will show you a large upper room, furnished and prepared; there make ready for us.” (Mark 14:15)
It is faithful for one to prepare, to be ready for the manifestation of expectation.
Preparing before God is the character expectant, evidence of keeping to orderliness.
THINK OF MEDITATING ON THE WORD OF GOD
It is an order to meditate on the word of God with preparation to observe, that is, to see in the word of God and be able to do according to the word /order of God.
God gave the order to Joshua after Moses, “This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.” (Joshua 1:8)
Prepare by meditating on the word of God to see (observe) and experience manifestation in the order given to Joshua.
One that is faithful, full of the word of God, is living in orderliness.
Faithful know the word of God to the heart, not just carry the word in their head. 
Acclaimed believers carry the word in their heads, not live according to the order in the word of God.
One with the word in the head, not in the heart, is the character of the wicked one, evidence of living outside of God. (Jeremiah 12:1-2)
What kind of a believer are you?
Luke 18:8 documents, “when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”  
Determination is not enough to live by the word of God. 
Determination failed Peter to deny Jesus three times, but desire and the prayer of Jesus established Peter to live by the order He gained, walking with Jesus.
With desire and prayer to live in order before God, so shall it be.

THE PEACE OF GOD IS YOUR PORTION

In this wicked world, the only way to gain and retain the presence of God is to walk in His way.
The presence of God is His word, His peace that does not fail for one that gives self to His word.
Prayerfully, Moses answered the calling of God in his leading of the Israelites, “…I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight. And consider that this nation is Your people.” (Exodus 33:13)
God responds to the prayer of Moses, “And He said, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.” (Exodus 33:14)
In the way of God is His presence.
The presence of God inhabits the rest of God.
The character of the rest of God is the peace of God.
In this challenging world of wickedness, a determination is not enough to gain and retain the peace of God.
One that gives self to prayer and the word of God will gain and retain the peace of God.
In the pages of the Bible, some pointers lead to learning in the way of God to gain and retain the peace of God.
Romans 15:4 encourages all, “For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope.”
Among the documentation of the word to learn, gain and retain the peace of God are:
KNOW THE TRUTH TO GAIN AND RETAIN THE PEACE OF GOD
John 8:31-32 records, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”  
The word of God is truth. 
Do you know God or know about God? 
Knowing about is not the same as knowing the truth. 
Knowing the truth builds a believer not to be a liar, deceiver, or manipulator and not run in the place to walk, the evidence of having the peace of God.
Know the truth to fear God and turn to live free for God. 
Dwell, abide in the truth with the character of one with the peace of God.
DISOBEYING GOD WILL TERMINATE A GLORIOUS DESTINY IN LIFE
One with peace of God will not have a reason to disobey God directly or indirectly. 
King Saul repeatedly violated the direction of God in place for his glorious destiny. 
God sent Samuel to Saul to attack and utterly destroy the Amalekites. 
Saul was unwilling but disobeyed God, an act of snubbing God.
King Saul disobeyed God, and he became substituted from the plan of God for his life. (1 Samuel 15) 
Pride and inability to wait on God are the company of iniquity before God, evidence of disobeying God to provoke God to be substituted in the assignment of God.
Do not give way to disobedience but let the peace of God occupy you. 
AVOID CONFESSING NEGATIVE 
In every careless thought, there will be reckless communication. 
Communicating or confessing wrong is taking God for granted. 
Let the peace of God occupy you to avoid wrong thoughts.
Know that communicating negatively before God will prompt a negative result.
With negative communication, are you seeking wants instead of needs before God?
Proverbs 18:21 warns against negative communication: “Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit.” 
The Israelites confess death at their lack of want, and God responds, saying to them, ‘As I live,’ says the lord, ‘just as you have spoken in My hearing, so I will do to you. (Numbers 14:28)
The peace of God does not have a place for negative confession to the hearing of God.
THE WAY (WORD) OF GOD IS IRRELEVANT TO THE WORLD
Deuteronomy 8:6 states, “Therefore you shall keep the commandments of the Lord your God, to walk in His ways and to fear Him.” 
If your way of living is relevant to the world, the word of God becomes irrelevant to you, or when your way is the same as the world, you are far from God.
Are your ways of life relevant to the world? 
One relevant to the world is evidence of the lack of fear for God.
Fear God in the heart, not in the mouth.
Psalm 128:1 admonishes, “Blessed is everyone who fears the Lord, who walks in His ways.”
One with the fear of God will rest in His peace.
Ask to be enabled to fear God.
PRAY FOR THE PEACE OF GOD
This month, the Peace of God shall be established in you and continually be activated.
The characters of one with the peace of God are:
To trust and hope in God is with a mind that stays on God, to gain the peace of God.
Isaiah 26:3 confirms, “The peace of God is for those whose minds stay on Him.”
To love the word of God is with the peace of God and not stumble in an unstable world.
Psalm 119:165 records, “Great peace have those who love Your law, And nothing causes them to stumble.”
PRAY: 
The peace of God that surpasses all understanding shall become your portion. (Philippians 4:7)

LET IT BE A YEAR OF LIVING LIFE FOR GOD

The grace and mercy of God have brought you to be alive into a New Year, not because you know how to live life.
Make the right choice, and upgrade your life to live for God.
Live life doing what the word of God asks all to do.
At a wedding in Cana of Galilee where wine for celebration was out, Mary, the mother of Jesus, encouraged the servants with the solution for lack to obey “Whatever He says to you, do it.” (John 2:5) 
The servants obeyed, and water turned to wine, for the wedding celebration continued with the miracle of obedience, not mockery.
From today, make the right choice to live life by the word of God and not become a victim of the evil of a wicked world.
In your New Year, live life by the word of God. 
Whatever the word of God says to you, do it.
What kind of a believer are you?
Living life is giving self to the word of God, living life for God.
One that does not live life for God denies knowing God.
Why not have the desire to live life for God?
Determination is not enough to live life for God.
The desire with prayer will make one live life for God.
Peter was determined not to deny Christ.
However, Peter denied Jesus three times, but the prayer of Jesus worked out for Peter not to become a victim of not living for God, denial of knowing Christ. (Luke 22:32-61)
Living life for God demands giving self to the word of God continually and praying to walk worthy to the glory of God.
LIVE LIFE FOR GOD IS SEEKING GOD DILIGENTLY
Living life for God is seeking God diligently. 
With desire, live life for God to find Him.
Deuteronomy 4:29 states, “But from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” 
“Jeremiah 29:13 records, “And you will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart.”  
If seeking God to find God is not possible, God would not have asked for seeking Him.
Live life for God, seek Him, and find Him. 
David is an example of such. 
1 Kings 14:8 records, “…My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, to do only what was right in My eyes.” (1 King 14:8) 
Living life for God and seeking Him is possible. 
Ask God to enable you to seek Him diligently.
LIVE LIFE FOR GOD AS MANIFESTATION SON OF GOD
What kind of a believer are you?
God creates all for His glory. (Revelation 4:11)
Ask to be enabled to live life for the glory of God.
Living life for God is not a thing of mouth or religion but dwelling and abiding by the word of God.
To abide in God is the character of one that lives for God, which Jesus demands from all. 
John 8:31 records, “…If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed.” 
Claiming to be a believer and not abide in Him is a joke, which is ceremonial religion. 
Today, live life before God, answer as manifestation son of God. 
The disciples of Jesus were testimony of manifestation sons of God by their way of life before God.
Manifestation sons of God are to be in place, living life before God with a mark of not being a pushover by the wickedness of this world.
What kind of a believer are you?
Nothing will bring you down living life for God if you do not look away from God.
One keeping by the word of God will live a life of testimony as a son of manifestation.
Romans 8:19 speaks to acclaimed believers, “For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.”
However, the acclaimed sons of God could not be recognized as revealed sons of God because the world is yet to experience the evidence of sons of God.
One that does not live for God by not standing in His word cannot become victorious, manifesting as the son of God.
Search yourself continually to know if you are near to God by your way of living life.
God is always near, but with sin, living against the word of God is to become far from God.
Determination is not enough to live for God, but with desire, God will deposit for one to live life for His glory.
Proverbs 6:22 identifies what it becomes of one with a desire to live for God: “When you roam, they will lead you; When you sleep, they will keep you; And when you awake, they will speak with you.”
If it is impossible to live life as a son of manifestation, the word will not point out the revelation of the sons of God
Live for God as a son of God.
Give yourself to the word of God, continually be upgraded, not become down and not stand out for the glory of God. 

KEEP ON KEEPING EYES ON GOD

It is not how long your Miracle is yet to manifest, but it is how far God has brought you that counts.
Just as worship is in opposition to worrying, so is a miracle to magic. 
The Miracle belongs to God, while magic belongs to the deceiver. 
Magic is a device of the enemy. 
Magic glitters, and it will only last for a moment. 
Seeking magic for the manifestation of expectation is seeking a substitute for God. 
It is wrong! It is wrong when likening God to another god. 
Isaiah 40:18 warns, “To whom then will you liken God? Or what likeness will you compare to Him?”  
God for today, just like in the past, seeking manifestation concerning expectation in the place of magic will provoke the judgment of God.
Gain understanding in the word of God to know that truly a miracle is not magic.
One expecting manifestation should give self with the expectation to the Miracle of God instead of magic. 
The Miracle is simply a wonder, and God alone is the wonder-working God. 
Miracles are of God, miracles last forever, and it runs deep. 
Psalm 138:2 testifies to the word of God, “For You have magnified Your word above all Your name.”
The word of God drives His Miracle.
Counting and courting on God is evidence of getting close to God to experience His Miracle.
One counting and courting on God is evidence of commitment to God.
The commitment to God is the character of waiting on God.
The word of God encourages all to wait on God that wait to act for waiting on Him.
Do not substitute the Miracle of God for magic. 
Anyone that does not liken God to any other god will count on God to gain and retain His presence.
Counting on God will keep one from courting other means that will always lead to self-disappointment, discouragement, or self-destruction. 
God is God that is incomparable to any other god.
Isaiah 46:5 said, “To whom will you liken Me, and make Me equal and compare Me, that we should be alike?”
Counting and courting God is the only avenue not to be a victim of magic devices in this wicked world.
Disallow the magic and devices of the devil.
Magic will fail!
Ask God to keep you from the magical snares of this wicked world.
Days, weeks, and months have passed by, but the privilege of God is keeping you.
Have you been seeing God in His word?
Seeing God is encased in seeing Him in His word.
The word admonishes all in John 1:1, ” In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
One that is open for the entrance of the word of God will see God in His word.
Psalm 119:130 states, “The entrance of Your words gives light; It gives understanding to the simple.”
Revelation 3:20 informs, “Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come into him and dine with him, and he with Me.”
Seek God to see Him in His word.
One that sees God is set to believe and do according to His word.
The word of God is to gain direction for deliverance and preservation, not to be a victim of the wicked world.
In the Old Testament, Psalm 107:120 states, “He sent His word and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions.”
In the New Testament, Jesus confirms that He has come, not that He is yet to come. He came, and He is here to give all life abundantly.
John 10:10 mentions, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill and to destroy. I have come that they may have life and that they may have it more abundantly.”
Have the desire to see God in His word.
Seeing in the word shall gain direction in God, to walk in Him, not fall or fail.
From this moment, strive, and make it a desire to see God in His word.
To see God is studying in His word that is true.
One that studies His word as the true shall believe in Him and not walk away from Him as an unbeliever.
John 8:45 points out the lack of unbelief in truth, “But because I tell the truth, you do not believe Me.”
Believe in the truth of God to see God and see all that is before you in the coming days.
One that sees God will hear to do according to His word.
From this day, have the mind to see and hear in the word.
John 8:47 points out, “He who is of God hears God’s words; therefore you do not hear, because you are not of God.” 
With desire, prayerfully ask to be enabled with open eyes to live as one for God. 
The eyes that are open in the heart are where the word of God enters to set one to do according to the word of God.

STEPPING INTO A NEW MONTH

Taking uncountable steps this far is the grace and mercy of God.
Day after day, week after week, month after month, and year after year is a great grace of God.
Grace alone means that God loves, forgives, and saves all, not because of who you are or what you do but because of the work of Christ.
No one knows to control the grace and mercy of God for all.
The grace and mercy that is certain to deliver, to preserve anyone belong to God.
Grace is the gift of God that produces, enhances, and develops salvation. The grace of God changes the life of one. 
The well-known song says it is Amazing Grace.
Indeed, it is grace to live.
Grace is an enabling power of God. 
It enables the recipient to do and be what one cannot become by their means.
The saving grace has brought you this far.
Ephesians 2:8-9 buttresses, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” 
To see this time of the year is not evidence of knowing God but the privilege of God.
David testifies the distance between life and death is a step. (1 Samuel 20:3)
You have taken uncountable steps not because you know the right step to take.
Taking uncountable steps this far is the grace and mercy of God.
Power belongs to God and is good and merciful.
Month after month, He has brought you this far.
In all your steps, you shall not fall.
Pray that the grace of God that has brought you this far shall not expire over your life.
This far, it is the grace of God.
The grace of God is much to experience.
Ephesians 2:8-9 states, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” 
The grace of God has brought you this far.
The grace of God is sufficient.
Grace is the power that God willingly gives to help to do what no one could ever do by themselves. When God said to Paul, “My grace is sufficient for you…” (2 Corinthians 12:19)
He gives Paul His power to be free from the thorn that was buffeting him.
The combination of mercy and the grace of God keeps all seeing a new day, week, month, and year.
The mercy of God has been consistent to see you this far, not to become a victim of the wicked world.
The mercy of God means God is compassionate and kind.
The mercy of God is with forbearance that does not run out.
The mercy of God is His loyal love; it is the conventional love of the covenant-keeping God. 
The mercy of God is not by merit but by the goodness of God to be received.
Just as power belongs unto God, mercy also belongs to God. 
God cannot be intimidated or manipulated by any of His creations to receive His mercy.
The mercy of God is not attainable through the work but by walking with God. 
God testifies to His mercy in Romans 9:14-16, “…I will have mercy on whomever I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whomever I will have compassion. So, then it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of God who shows mercy.”
The mercy of God is in place for all, and nothing under heaven can displace or deny one that God will visit.
With mercy, God led the children of Israel out of the bondage of over four hundred years. The Bible records, “You in Your mercy have led forth the people whom You have redeemed…” (Exodus 15:13) 
In the given days that you have by the breath of life, understand and know to live life to attain the mercy of God as the Bible records His word.
God alone will have mercy on whom He chooses to, but He will also have for one that lives by His command.
With the grace of God, the mercy of God is attainable when the life of one aligns with the word of God.
One that lives life according to the word always receives the mercy of God. For example, Joseph lived life according to the word of God when he ignored the temptation to violate the word of God and not to fail before God (Genesis 39:7-15).
With repentance, one that asks before God for forgiveness will receive the mercy of God. The Bible records, “For You, Lord, are good, and ready to forgive, and abundant in mercy to all those who call upon You” (Psalm 86:5). God is good and merciful; no iota of evil can deny the mercy of God that is in place for one with the understanding that calls on God. 
Asking for forgiveness is a very sure way of obtaining the mercy of God, as it is glaring in the pages of the Bible. 
The Bible encourages, “He who covers his sins will not prosper, but whoever confesses and forsake them will have mercy” (Proverbs 28:13). 
With grace, God is merciful to respond with mercy for one that trusts God with hope.
