Let Your face shine upon your servant, O Lord.

"May the favor of the Lord our God be ours.
    Prosper the work of our hands!
    Prosper the work of our hands!"  (Psalm 90: 17 NABRE)

If the Lord does not build the house,  the career, the marriage, they labor in vain who try.   (Cf Psalm 127: 1)
Promotion does not come from the East or West but from God.  (Psalm 75: 6)
Give us success in all we do, O Lord!

The Lord fulfills the desire of those who fear Him.

"What do you have that you did not receive?"  (1 Corinthians 4: 7)

God is the Giver of every good and perfect gift.  (James 1: 17)

Today is the Memorial of St Gregory the Great, Pope and Doctor of the Church.

"Meditate daily on the words of your Creator.  Learn the Heart of God in the words of God, that your soul may be enkindled with greater longing for heavenly joys."
- (St Gregory the Great)

Take delight in the LORD, and He will grant you your heart's requests.

"People should think of us as servants of Christ, ·the ones God has trusted with his [and stewards/household managers of God’s] ·secrets [mysteries]."  (1 Corinthians 4: 1 EXB)

Are you a trustworthy steward?  Is Jesus the Lord of your time, talent and treasure?  If not yet, the Journey of Faith is not a sprint.  Be patient.  Commit to Jesus your ways. Trust in His Mercy and He will see you through.

Lord Jesus, at Your word, I will do it.

“Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.”  (Luke 5: 5 NKJV)

What is the "Obedience of Faith"?  It means that Faith has direct and tangible consequence. "Stand up and walk" from Jesus, you stand up and start walking.  With Faith all things are possible.  Without Faith, you labor in frustration with the feeble and useless energy of the flesh.  Choose Faith and live fully.

Dear Jesus, heal my body and preserve my vital organs.

"At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness, and laying his hands on each one, he healed them."  (Luke 4: 40 NIV)

Healing the sick is core to the ministry of Jesus Christ.  It is the desire of Jesus that healing ministry continues today.
Why are Christians not healing the sick?  The distress of illness is opportunity for Jesus.
Has the problem of UNBELIEF anything to do with lack of healings today?

We have not received spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God.

"But we have the mind of Christ."  (1 Corinthians 2: 16)

Who has the mind of Christ?
The Church, the Family of God entrusted with the Holy Scriptures. The Christian whose mind and spirit is one with the teaching authority of the Church.  He has the mind of Christ who is indwelt by the Holy Spirit and does not compromise with the spirit of the world.

Only ask, and I will give you the nations as your inheritance,     the whole earth as your possession.

“Ask me for anything you want, and I’ll give it to you.”  (Mark 6: 22 NIV)

What will you ask for if Jesus spoke the above words to you today?
Jesus Himself gave us the clue to the right answer:

"So if you sinful people know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him."  (Luke 11: 13 NLT)
