THIS NEW MONTH: BE GRATEFUL, WATCH AND PRAY.

THIS NEW MONTH: BE GRATEFUL, WATCH AND PRAY.

Scriptural solution insight.

Happy New Month. It has been a journey we need to be grateful for. You need to intentionally set aside time to start Appreciating the Lord, Showing Gratitude to God provokes him to Give more than what you always ask from him. This Month, I don't think you still need to focus on needs and wants. You need to program your mind, Spirit, and soul to Appreciate God and Watch and pray. Let yourself know that this month is a Special month to do special things for the Lord. 

Focusing on these three this month calls you back to your creator to give an account of the Whole year. Indeed, "Be grateful, watch, and pray" is a powerful reminder to maintain an attitude of thankfulness, stay vigilant in our actions, and seek guidance through prayer. It encourages mindfulness and a balanced approach to life's challenges. Even the challenge of The nation can easily make you approach life negatively. But it's not time for that; balance your life approach by Showing an attitude of Thanksgiving, being Vigilant in Prayer, and seeking guidance as a watchman. 

Let me express more fully and in greater detail about the 3 Things to do this month.

Col.4.2 - Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.

The Word Devote means to give one's time, focus one's efforts, and commit oneself. And the Scripture above is instructing us to Give ourselves Our focus and be committed to Prayer, being watchful and thankful. Let's learn more about the 3.

1) Prayer: as I wrote in the last 2 days about prayer. That prayer has 3 Principles: Ask, Seek, and Knock, and the 3 Work with the ability to Ask a request or petition. When you're praying you're making a Request from God. When; it now depends on the area you focus your prayer on. This month, it's also in the Mind of God that you come closer to Him in Prayer. Commit yourself more to praying these Next 2 Months. 

Set aside time to Spend time with God in prayer, even when prayer is neither convenient nor comfortable. We need to be men who are devoted to prayer in this way.   So this month no complaints about why you're not praying.

2) being watchful: When you are on watch duty spiritually, you will not allow the worldly culture around you to lull you to sleep and inaction. It's the month not to allow worldly living to affect your spirituality, not to affect your Relationship with God. 

Scriptural to being watchful is not just to pray, it's to enter into the realm of Transformation and Having the ability to hear from God and his angels. Let me share 2 Scriptures with you. 

Scripture 1 

Hab.2.1 - I will climb up into my watchtower now and wait to see what the LORD will say to me and how he will answer my complaint.

Hab.2.2 - Then the LORD said to me, "Write my answer in large, clear letters on a tablet, so that a runner can read it and tell everyone else.

The hour of watching it's the moment of Listening to the Lord. Standing on the Watchtower is the ability to wait on God even when it's not convenient. One of the assurances of things that happens when we watch it is that He gives us Instructions, guidance, Direction, and Vision to run with. To be on alert for the attacks of the enemy.

Scripture 2.

Matt.26.40 - Then he returned to the disciples and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "Couldn't you stay awake and watch with me for even one hour?

Matt.26.41 - Keep alert and pray. Otherwise, temptation will overpower you. For though the spirit is willing enough, the body is weak!"

This month, give God 1 hour to watch that particular thing in his mind for you. And Jesus is asking his disciples to watch just an hour with him.  A watchman is always alert about everything. It's time again to watch one every night. (you can join our watch night).

3) Thankful: this month, you don't need to complain about things. Be grateful for everything. We must remain thankful to keep our prayer life balanced. In all our devotion and watchfulness, we can’t become ungrateful, negative Christians. The best defense against becoming a crank or a complainer is to become a man who constantly gives thanks to God. Stay thankful to God for what He has done and for what He is doing now, especially while you are waiting for answers to your prayers.

This month be grateful to God Almighty.

Finally, The month of Watchman Starts today; we always use this month to watch the plan of God for us to prepare us for The coming year, And to show our appreciation to him. Thank you, Jesus. God bless you.

Let's Pray: Lord, give my Spirit Power to stay an hour for you this Month. In Jesus name. Amen.

Hope it's insightful.
