Sunday Scripture

Greetings my friends. It is Sunday February 08TH 2026, and this is the day that our LORD has made. Let us rejoice. Let us be glad in it. Let us celebrate this great new day of believing, following, trusting, loving, and being more like our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ. Let us love our neighbor as ourself.

I do my best praying to God when I’m alone – whether at home – or in my car (especially driving around Sebring) – or in any public place. When it comes to praying out loud with others – I often feel like it didn’t sound right, or I stumbled with words, or the right words weren’t there when I needed them, or I left something out that I wanted to say.

I pray often for everyone I know – people I see every day, people I see every so often, and people I haven’t seen in years. I pray for my closest brothers and sisters of my first two church families in Homestead, and I pray for my current church family here in Sebring. I pray for my Sebring Historical Society family. I pray for my neighbors here in my dream neighborhood that God placed me in 3 years ago. Even if I don’t yet know their name, or I’ve forgotten their name – I still pray for them. God knows who I’m talking to Him about.

I say the words “Thank You Lord” often in my prayers. It’s how I start every prayer. I thank God for all that He has done for me – and all that He is currently doing for me – and all that He will do for me. I thank God for blessing all of my friends abundantly.

If you’re a believer and follower of our Lord + Savior Jesus Christ then I encourage you to pray often. You are qualified to pray – privately and publicly – no matter the time and place. When asked – I pray aloud in front of others even though I don’t think I’m good at it. But God. He just wants to hear from us – often. He doesn’t care how smooth talking we are. He wants to hear us in our own words and in our own voice.

Some believers don’t / won’t pray, but they will ask a Pastor / Preacher / Evangelist / Priest / Minister / Deacon / Elder to pray for them. God commands all of us to don’t worry about anything – instead – pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God’s peace – which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:6-7 NLT)

It’s as simple as that. Ask yourself – aside from yourself – how many of your family members, friends, neighbors, and complete strangers will receive miracles from God because of what you prayed to Him ?

My testimony is featured each week here on #SundayScripture – whether it’s part of a sermon, a testimony, or just me writing about the events of the past week. Hopefully it encourages you and inspires you to seek the Lord – and get closer to Him with each new day.

If you wish to learn more about the God I know – then stay tuned to #SundayScripture. The best is yet to come !

Thank you for reading my blog for this day, and may:

The LORD bless you, and keep you.
The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you.
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.

In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. AMEN.
