“Jesus is the vine, and we are his branches. We could say Jesus stands at the head of our family tree. Our beauty, wisdom, and divine nature have been passed down to us from him. All of heaven looks at us and sees the offspring of glory. Is this what we see when we look in the mirror? Is this the truth we pull from when we reach out our hands to bless others? His very life, the expression of his power and majesty upon the earth, lives inside of us, waiting to be released.” Simmons, Brian; Rodriguez, Gretchen
Saved From Self-Enslavement
I was so enslaved to myself, serving no power higher than self. I was a part of a sinking ship, so consumed with myself, I did not even notice. Then Jesus, You came into my life, You freed me, You changed my focus off myself, to Your Kingdom. You saved me. What You did for me, I can’t even begin to express my gratitude in a measurement that could even begin to repay You. You gave me eternal life. How do I wrap my mind around what You did, Savior and Lord? Coming here, dying for me, purchasing my freedom from death. I have a future and a hope. My heart is wholly-holy Yours, that is why I don’t ask for much for myself when I pray, I ask more for Your mission, for what can be done for Your Kingdom. You are at the center of my life, You are the ONE I serve first and foremost. Listen up to this 1 Minute Encouragement Video and be inspired to serve God first, to be a Firstee today and ask God: What Can I Do For You, Jesus?
Freely Given Life
I know that this life I was gifted with that never ends because of You, what You did for me was given to me freely, and I owe nothing for it. The greatest gift ever gifted to mankind and we owe nothing for it. This makes me love You, my Savior, so much more, and gives me a deep desire to serve You with my life. My life used to be so focused on myself, all things me, I was at the center of all my purpose and everything I did was to advance me, my position, my standing, my finances, my things, it was all about me. How exhausting that was. When I met You, Jesus I was so sick of all things me, so lost in myself and all my stuff. You changed that up and I am so grateful for that. I am all about Your Kingdom now and everything else peacefully comes into place for me without me having to frustratedly serve no power higher than self, and consistently never finish what I started. Without You, I very rarely finish well. I know I will finish well now, empowered by You, as I serve You 24/7 with my whole life being Yours. It is a pleasure being all in for Your Kingdom. I hope you, who are reading this now, that you, reader, will choose to serve Jesus, the greatest Supremacy ever known to mankind. I hope today we all step underneath the Rulership of His Love and know the Love of God, be loved well. Listen up to this 1 Minute Encouragement Video about how we are so limitlessly loved:
Are any of you groping in the dark without light? Let him trust in the faithful name of Yahweh and rely on his God. 11But if you presume to light your own torch, you are playing with fire. So go ahead, walk in the light of your own fires and the sparks you have kindled. But I can promise you this: it will take you down into torment! Isaiah 50:10-11 Simmons, Brian. The Book of Isaiah: TPT

I hope my life always reflects what I am freely, with great love, doing for You, the action of being found in You, Jesus. I hope to choose you and that my life will mirror this choice and ask the question of others: Who Do You Serve?
When Ahab saw him, he exclaimed, “So, is it really you, you troublemaker of Israel?” “I have made no trouble for Israel,” Elijah replied. “You and your family are the troublemakers, for you have refused to obey the commands of the Lord and have worshiped the images of Baal instead. Now summon all Israel to join me at Mount Carmel, along with the 450 prophets of Baal and the 400 prophets of Asherah who are supported by Jezebel. ” So Ahab summoned all the people of Israel and the prophets to Mount Carmel. Then Elijah stood in front of them and said, “How much longer will you waver, hobbling between two opinions? If the Lord is God, follow him! But if Baal is God, then follow him!” But the people were completely silent. 1 Kings 18:17-21
