TUESDAY MORNING FAMILY PRAYER!

“LORD, MOVE IN OUR FAMILIES!”

“Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear.” — Isaiah 59:1 (KJV)

Heavenly Father, in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, we come before You this Tuesday morning lifting up our entire family.
Lord, move in our families as never before! Go into every home, touch every heart, and meet every need.
Father, we lift up every family member who does not have a relationship with Jesus Christ. Your Word says You are “not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance” (2 Peter 3:9). Lord, save our sons, daughters, grandchildren, spouses, parents, siblings, nieces, nephews, cousins, and extended family. Draw them to Jesus and bring the wandering ones home!
Father, touch every family member dealing with physical sickness, mental and emotional struggles, pain, disease, anxiety, fear, discouragement, or exhaustion.
“Heal me, O LORD, and I shall be healed.” — Jeremiah 17:14 (KJV)
Lord, heal bodies, strengthen minds, restore peace, guide doctors, and give wisdom concerning every treatment and decision.
Father, we cry out for those struggling with drugs and alcohol. Break every chain of addiction! Destroy destructive cycles and give them strength, treatment, support, and godly people to walk with them toward freedom.
“He brought them out of darkness... and brake their bands in sunder.” — Psalm 107:14 (KJV)
Lord, we place our finances before You. Provide where there is lack. Give us wisdom, discipline, favor, opportunity, and resources. Help us become faithful stewards of everything You place in our hands.
We pray for every family member seeking employment.
“Establish thou the work of our hands upon us.” — Psalm 90:17 (KJV)
Lord, open doors no one can shut. Give favor with applications, résumés, interviews, and employers. Lead them to the right opportunities.
And for those who are already employed, Father, we thank You! Now we believe You for increase, advancement, salary increases, new opportunities, and promotion according to Your will.
Lord, heal broken relationships. Restore communication. Break generational cycles. Remove unforgiveness, division, and bitterness. Protect our children, marriages, homes, and loved ones from dangers seen and unseen.
Father, move through our bloodline!
Save our family.
Heal our family.
Deliver our family.
Provide for our family.
Restore our family.
Protect our family.
And let Your Word be fulfilled:
“I will pour my spirit upon thy seed, and my blessing upon thine offspring.” — Isaiah 44:3 (KJV)
Lord, do something in our families that only You can get the glory for!
We place every name, every sickness, every financial need, every job situation, every addiction, every troubled mind, every unsaved loved one, and every unspoken burden into Your hands.
LORD, MOVE AS NEVER BEFORE!
In the mighty, healing, saving, delivering, restoring, chain-breaking, door-opening name of JESUS CHRIST, we pray.
AMEN, AMEN, AND AMEN!

“As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” — Joshua 24:15 (KJV)

Hello, I would like to share with you the message from 1 septembre 2026 from “The Good Seed” daily calendar.


In the day of my trouble I sought the Lᴏʀᴅ. (Psalm 77:2)

Abandoned by all?
The incarcerated man stands before the prison chaplain. He holds a letter in his hand and says, “Reverend, I wanted to see you one last time today.” – “What’s wrong? Are you sick?” – “For eight years, I’ve only been able to see the sky through these bars. So far, I’ve endured it. There was someone who thought of me, wrote to me, and waited for me. – But here is the last letter. My wife has left me. Now my life has no meaning.”
 The chaplain knew the man. He was not one of those who talked about suicide to gain an advantage. So he replied, “I’m so sorry to hear that everyone has given up on you. But remember: God hasn’t given up on you! He’s seeking you. He’s waiting for you. And I believe now is the time for you to turn to Him. I’ll pray for you. But I also have a request for you: read the Gospel of Luke which I’m giving you here.”
 Two days later – on a Sunday morning – the man was in the prison chapel, where the pastor spoke about the saving faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. The face of the prisoner shone. In the solitude of his cell, God had met him in his despair and had given him more than his longed-for freedom: eternal salvation.
 The man had found peace with God and had become a beloved child of God.

Today’s reading: Judges 3:12-31 – 2 Corinthians 3:7-18

Monday Encouragement — Redeeming the Time

Blessings, dear brothers and sisters in Christ.

It is remarkable how quickly this year is passing. Another month is ending, and it seems only yesterday that we began this year wondering what the months ahead would bring.

At the same time, world events appear to become more extreme with each passing day. Wars and conflicts continue, natural disasters bring suffering, political and economic uncertainty trouble nations, and changes in our society seem to come faster than we can comprehend them.

Yet none of this should cause the child of God to lose hope.

While the world changes rapidly, our sovereign God never changes. He is not surprised by today’s events, nor is He uncertain about tomorrow. History is not moving beyond His control. Every nation and every generation remains under His sovereign authority.

“For I am the LORD, I change not.” — Malachi 3:6

The speed with which this year is passing should also remind us of something very personal: our time is precious.

God has given each of us a limited number of days to serve Him. We cannot recover yesterday, and none of us is promised tomorrow. But by God’s grace, we have been given today.

Scripture therefore tells us:

“See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” — Ephesians 5:15–16

So perhaps the question for us this Monday is not simply, “What will happen in the world this week?”

A better question is:

“Lord, how would You have me serve You today?”

There are people who need encouragement. There are believers who need strengthening. There are suffering people who need compassion. There are men and women who still need to hear the saving Gospel of Jesus Christ.

We cannot solve every problem confronting this world. But we know the One who holds this world in His hands.

Therefore, let us not waste our precious days consumed by fear, anger, or endless speculation about tomorrow. Let us pray, stand firmly upon God’s Word, proclaim Christ faithfully, love our neighbors, serve those in need, and use every opportunity God provides for His glory.

The year is passing quickly.

The world is changing rapidly.

But Jesus Christ is still Lord. His Word is still truth. His Gospel still saves. And our mission has not changed.

May our sovereign Lord guide every step we take this week and help us faithfully redeem the time He has graciously given us.

Serving Christ Together for His Glory Alone.

Soli Deo Gloria.

Did you know?
The sanctuary was not merely an ancient place of worship. It was God’s illustrated plan of redemption.

Scripture calls the earthly sanctuary a “copy and shadow of the heavenly things” (Hebrews 8:5). Its services were symbolic, pointing beyond themselves to the saving work of Christ.

Every part taught something.

The sacrifices revealed that sin brings death and that forgiveness requires the shedding of blood.
The priesthood revealed the need for a mediator between God and man.
The daily ministry showed how confessed sin was dealt with through the blood of the sacrifice.
The Day of Atonement revealed a final work of cleansing, judgment, and the ultimate removal of sin.

Even the yearly feasts followed the same redemptive pattern.

Passover pointed to Christ our sacrifice.
Unleavened Bread pointed to His sinless life and burial.
Firstfruits pointed to His resurrection.
Pentecost pointed to the inauguration of the heavenly sanctuary and outpouring of the Holy Spirit.
Trumpets announced the approaching judgment.
The Day of Atonement pointed to the final judgement ministry of Christ in the heavenly sanctuary.
Tabernacles pointed forward to the final gathering and dwelling of God with His redeemed people.

This is why the sanctuary matters.

The cross cannot be separated from the priesthood.
The sacrifice cannot be separated from the ministry of the blood.
And the daily service cannot be separated from the final cleansing on the Day of Atonement.

Together, the sanctuary, its sacrifices, its priesthood, and its feasts form one connected prophetic picture of the entire work of redemption—from the death of Christ to the final removal of sin.

“Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary.” — Psalm 77:13

Hebrews 8:5 • Hebrews 9:9, 23–24 • Colossians 2:16–17

A Nugget of Truth.
SANCTIFIED THROUGH THE WORD

Jesus prayed:
“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.” — John 17:17

Sanctification is the work of God in transforming the life and character of the believer, and Jesus tells us that His Word is the instrument of that sanctification.

But we cannot expect the Word to transform us if we rarely open it.

Just as the body needs daily food, the spiritual life needs daily nourishment from the Scriptures. Jesus said:
“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” — Matthew 4:4

Reading the Bible is not simply about gaining knowledge. We are to allow its truth to correct us, convict us, teach us, and change the way we think, speak, and live.

“Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.” — Psalm 119:11

True sanctification produces a visible change in character, conduct, speech, attitudes, and choices. The more we behold Christ in His Word, the more our lives are brought into harmony with His character.

The Bible should therefore not be something we turn to only once a week. If we want to grow in holiness, overcome sin, recognise deception, and become more like Christ, we need His Word in our minds and hearts every day.

“Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.”

Daily Bible study is not what earns salvation—it is one of the primary ways God works His truth into the life of the person He is saving.

Thank You, Lord, for Being My Savior
Scripture: “To seek and to save the lost.” — Luke 19:10

Reflection: Jesus didn’t just save you once — He keeps saving you daily. From sin, from shame, from fear, from yourself. His rescue is ongoing, personal, and full of grace. He steps into the darkest places of your life with light, hope, and healing. He doesn’t just pull you out — He lifts you up, restores you, and walks with you into a new way of living. Salvation is not a moment; it’s a relationship.

Prayer: Lord, thank You for saving me, redeeming me, and giving me a life I could never build on my own. Amen.

CHEER UP—VICTORY IS CERTAIN

Who Against Hope Believed In Hope, That He Might Become The Father Of Many Nations, According To That Which Was Spoken, So Shall Thy Seed Be (Romans 4:18 KJV).


There are times when you’ve done everything you know to do and the situation still seems unchanged. You’ve prayed, stood on the Word and applied the counsel given, yet nothing appears different. That’s the moment many are tempted to yield to discouragement. But that should never be your response; faith never gives up.

The Bible tells us that Abraham, against hope, believed in hope. When there was no natural reason to expect a change, he held on to what God had said. That’s the life of faith. You don’t allow circumstances to sway you or cause you to vacillate; you anchor your confidence in the Word.

Never stagger at the Word of God through unbelief just because the change you seek didn’t seem to happen overnight. Rather, be strong in faith giving glory to God, knowing His Word never fails. Stand your ground and win. The Bible says we’re not of them that draw back; we believe till the end: “Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him. But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul” (Hebrews 10:38-39).

We don’t give up, and we don’t give in. You may find yourself in circumstances that seem resistant or appear unyielding or pressures that suggest you’re at a disadvantage; don’t cower. Hold your ground with the Word. You’re not at the mercy of the conditions or elements of this world; you’re a victor in Christ Jesus.

He already said “…in all these things we are more than conquerors…” (Romans 8:37). That’s His Word, and His Word is dependable. It works. But it requires your steadfastness. So lift your head and square your shoulders; refuse to give in to despair. Cheer up; victory is certain: “...In the Messiah, in Christ, God leads us from place to place in one perpetual victory parade…” (2 Corinthians 2:14 MSG).

Let Us Hold Fast The Profession Of Our Faith Without Wavering; (For He Is Faithful That Promised;)

James 1:12 KJV
Blessed Is The Man That Endureth Temptation: For When He Is Tried, He Shall Receive The Crown Of Life, Which The Lord Hath Promised To Them That Love Him.

Romans 4:18-22 KJV
Who Against Hope Believed In Hope, That He Might Become The Father Of Many Nations; According To That Which Was Spoken, So Shall Thy Seed Be. And Being Not Weak In Faith, He Considered Not His Own Body Now Dead, When He Was About An Hundred Years Old, Neither Yet The Deadness Of Sara's Womb: He Staggered Not At The Promise Of God Through Unbelief; But Was Strong In Faith, Giving Glory To God; And Being Fully Persuaded That, What He Had Promised, He Was Able Also To Perform. And Therefore It Was Imputed To Him For Righteousness.
