These are the blessings of All in All. Confess them Daily.
Blessed am I
Blessed am I
Blessed are my hands for I make what HE sees!
Blessed are the fruit of my loins, for the word of God has prospered me.
Blessed is my intake, for it runs with abundance; neither getting weary, nor faint in season.
Blessed are the doors to my house.
Blessed are the doors to my house.

Become a King's Garden
by ~berriski2
I am a King’s garden.
Listen. What do you hear?
Birds nest within my trees. Daffodils bloom in sunny abundance. The dew awakens his nose and
the fragrance causes the King to rejoice in me. How wonderful it is to please the Lord. He enters my
gates and rests within my courts. I am glad to see him. My crickets chirp at the sound of his footsteps.
Petals sway at the passing of his robe. I am only a vessel for his honor. All who see me sing of his glory; I too.
I delight myself in his heart. Even the memories of his presence erupts great joy. I am honored by the King!
Holy and set apart before him! My fruit he does store up; almonds,

Joshua 1:8 KJV
8 This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.
2 - Denote the path of righteousness the Lord is leading you down
*Your Purpose
3 - Walk in the way of RIGHTEOUSNESS
Proverbs 12:28

For it is by free grace (God’s unmerited favor) that you are saved ( delivered from judgment and made partakers of Christ’s salvation) through [your] faith. And this [salvation] is not of yourselves [of your own doing, it came not through your own striving], but it is the gift of God; Ephesians 2:8

Our perceptions
Who do I view myself to be?
*Our PERCEPTIONS of our OWN ISSUES hinder our DELIVERANCE
Thoughts such as these may occur:
*Who do I trust?
*Will they look at me the same?
*Am I able to seek help?
*Will they help me?
*What if I tell them and they do not help me?
*What if they laugh or accuse me?
The Lord says :
FEAR NOT, for I AM WITH YOU. [Gen. 26:24]
That pain that you are hiding from others is not hidden from the Lord.
Jesus says: …”Son, be of good cheer; your sins are forgiven you.” [Matthew 9:1-3 NKJV]
…”Be of good cheer, daughter; your faith has made you well.” [Matthew 9:21-23 NKJV]
GUILT : ASK FOR FORGIVENESS
Miscommunications and disagreements frequently happen. However, these situations need to be nipped in the root with a swift hand.
1. Ask the Lord to forgive you.
2. Ask the person to forgive you.
3. Forgive others.
After these have been done with a pure heart in love. When arrows of deception from the past are flung your way speak Romans 8:1
1 So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. 2 And because you belong to him, the power[a] of the life-giving Spirit has freed you[b] from the power of sin that leads to death. 3 The law of Moses was unable to save us because of the weakness of our sinful nature.[c] So God did what the law could not do. He sent his own Son in a body like the bodies we sinners have. And in that body God declared an end to sin’s control over us by giving his Son as a sacrifice for our sins. 4 He did this so that the just requirement of the law would be fully satisfied for us, who no longer follow our sinful nature but instead follow the Spirit.
SHAME : SPIRITUAL BOLDNESS
4 “Teacher,” they said to Jesus, “this woman was caught in the act of adultery. 5 The law of Moses says to stone her. What do you say?”
6 They were trying to trap him into saying something they could use against him, but Jesus stooped down and wrote in the dust with his finger. 7 They kept demanding an answer, so he stood up again and said, “All right, but let the one who has never sinned throw the first stone!” 8 Then he stooped down again and wrote in the dust.
9 When the accusers heard this, they slipped away one by one, beginning with the oldest, until only Jesus was left in the middle of the crowd with the woman. 10 Then Jesus stood up again and said to the woman, “Where are your accusers? Didn’t even one of them condemn you?”
11 “No, Lord,” she said.
And Jesus said, “Neither do I. Go and sin no more.” [John 8:4-11 NLT]
14 Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. 15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. [Hebrews 4:14-16 NKJV]
SORROW : JOY
I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.] [John 16:33 AMP]
For Physical Pain
Build your confidence in the Lord and his word.
*Psalm 37: 23-26 AMP
23The steps of a [good] man are directed and established by the
Lord when He delights in his way [and He busies Himself with his every step].
24Though he falls, he shall not be utterly cast down, for the Lord grasps his hand in support and upholds him.
25I have been young and now am old, yet have I not seen the [uncompromisingly] righteous forsaken or their seed begging bread.
26All day long they are merciful and deal graciously; they lend, and their offspring are blessed.
*2 Corinthians 3:5 NLT
5It is not that we think we are qualified to do anything on our own. Our qualification comes from God.
*2 Corinthians 9:8 NKJV
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you, that you, always having all sufficiency in all things, may have an abundance
for every good work.
*2 Isaiah 53:5 NKJV
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him,
And by His stripes we are healed.
*Proverbs 3:24-27 NKJV
24 When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet.
25 Do not be afraid of sudden terror,
Nor of trouble from the wicked when it comes;
26 For the LORD will be your confidence,
And will keep your foot from being caught.
27 Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
When it is in the power of your hand to do so.
Meditate on Psalm 143:11 NLT
11 For the glory of your name, O Lord, preserve my life.
Because of your faithfulness, bring me out of this distress.
Put your trust in the Lord and honestly confess those issues.
3 Trust in the Lord and do good.
Then you will live safely in the land and prosper.
4 Take delight in the Lord,
and he will give you your heart’s desires.
5 Commit everything you do to the Lord.
Trust him, and he will help you.
6 He will make your innocence radiate like the dawn,
and the justice of your cause will shine like the noonday sun.
7 Be still in the presence of the Lord,
and wait patiently for him to act.
Don’t worry about evil people who prosper
or fret about their wicked schemes. [PSALM 37: 3-7 NLT]
