Idea: When those you know are sinners, the kind that groan, moan and complain, gossip, badmouth, swear, use God’s name like a dirty rag — and then have the nerve to say:
“Good morning.”
YOU SAY: “IT IS!”
WHY?
BECAUSE:
YOU KNOW these kind of folks are not having a good morning! They can’t! They are not inviting God into their morning!
Pray they see you’re not accepting their lie; pray they receive the Holy Spirit’s conviction – because their morning is godless —
no prayer,
no praise,
no reverential fear.
— showing them they can’t possibly have a good morning!
BUT: YOU ARE!
It is a good morning only for those safe in God’s arms!
Pray this declaration of “It is!” stirs them! They are missing it!
God called the light day, and the darkness He called night And there was evening and there was morning, one day.
Genesis 1:5
Growing up in a home without the love for God, an invalid father, heavy financial hardships, and tremendous (sometimes dangerous) discord is always difficult. Add on to that extreme shyness, a feeling of inferiority, and some may think this girl was rejected. But God’s hand was on her and His heart was for her. Today, Ann Marie Turner has performed many great services in Jesus’ name for the love of God and man; and for herself! She has ministered in the male correctional for over ten years. Along with this website, Ann is the author of Joy Stories, Volume One and The Free Incarcerated Man. Writing about the joy of the Lord and the victory that is available for a willing soul is one of Ann’s now greatest joys! Ann’s prayer for you is to overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of your testimony. Celebrate the God of the Bible and your personal victories in Christ unceasingly! Revelation 12:11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.
