First Place!!

-

Since when did prayer become a last option?   Often times it’s the very last resort for us when the odds are stacked against us…Oh my!!  I think we need to fall to our knees in full repentance!!!


 Are we really and truly hiding in unbelief that we don’t believe in the power of prayer?  Is that why we exhaust every option before we even pray?   That seems like a slap in the face!!  That is what it may seem like to the Lord!

I would think that breaks the heart of Abba!!

As many times that Jesus came through for us… you would think that we would have learned to seek Jesus first in prayer!!

If your faith in God is that little then no wonder your not seeing the answers that you long to see!!


For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened. 11 If a son asks for [a]bread from any father among you, will he give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, will he give him a serpent instead of a fish? 12 Or if he asks for an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?13 If you then, being evil, know how to givegood gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask Him!”  Luke 11:11 NKJV



I sincerely hope that this stirs your heart what your first option is.  May the Holy Spirit pull on your heart strings on what is most important.  Does Jesus actually have first place in your heart and soul?   It’s time to check our motives here.   If Jesus truly had first place why is it every time that prayer is our last option.  






Abba forgive our selfish and greedy hearts.  Help us to check our motives here in the next several minutes after we finish reading this. Give us repentant hearts full of Your Holy Spirit!  We lay our lives down and our selfish sins.   It’s not about us it’s all about Jesus!!!   Move on every heart reading this post.  Come Holy Spirit!!!   Move upon our souls in Jesus name!!

I always see a flower before it blooms.                               Richard T Hicks 2020 I was not always like that.  Why and exactly how in the world did my perspective change over the years? I used to be completely opposite.  I was a Norman Negative and Pessimistic Peter. You name it, I was it. I seen the glass half empty never half full. I was a constant worrier about the future and lived in the past. It was as if everyday was a drudgery.   All I could see before me as all my mistakes I had made in my life. All I seen in the mirror was one big mistake. It is as if I lived mistake after mistake. I felt like a scratched up record that could not be fixed.   Before I fell asleep at night not only did my mind replay the negative from that day but it was like it domino'ed a past of bad negative choices I had made in life surfaced....  I wanted to die but was afraid to...  It would keep me up for hours tormenting my mind..... I don't really think I am the only

Dear Jesus I just want to take the time to say I appreciated all you have done for me through your sacrificial death on that dark and cruel cross.   You didn’t have to do it… but you did.   It makes me sad that you had to die to make this all possible…but you did it without hesitation.  All my love and life I owe to You… Thank you ABBA for your grace and mercy poured out upon all people on this earth.   Draw them and give them a revelation of your divine glory.  For you gave your only son.   I am so grateful to you for redeeming me so I wouldn’t have to die.   For Jesus has already been on that cross and already experienced my destruction in the grave.  He already died once for all creation.   For in Adam we have died already, but through Christ we have been made alive through that glorious resurrection by the power of your Holy Spirit.   Yes God has already done it all through the power of His Spirit.    For He has already seated us in heavenly places in Jesus.   He has given us a hop

Not in a Hurry

A flower does not get in a hurry.  It takes its time to grow and bloom in beautiful and intrinsic ways. Just like us as believers we do not instantly bloom.  We  may start as a seed.  We want to be in such a hurry but it takes grace to be patient….and trust too.  It takes time and space to grow. Lots of tender loving care.   We shouldn’t worry about blooming for our time will come without one worry how we will turn out … Dear Jesus,  help me I pray to not be in a hurry or to compare my heart to to anyone else for in due time we will flourish and bloom like the red rose 🌹 on a sunny spring day…Amen.
