The "Colonel's" Motivational/Inspirational Quotes and Message of the Day!

Excellent share brother SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL

No question that Unconditional love is the ultimate most powerful force especially when we equate that force to God's gift to mankind.

Amen Bro Joe, the Man was sainted for sure!

I expect personal integrity is important to you and that demonstrating love is fundamental to your character. I expect your transparency of character does you justice. No doubt your humility is genuine and you do not put on airs in social interactions since you have self-confidence and have no need or desire to demean others. I hope your demonstration of love and selflessness to each one you interact with dispels all doubt that you are worthy of imitating. ‘so that the tested genuineness of your faith—more precious than gold that perishes though it is tested by fire—may be found to result in praise and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ’ [1 Peter 3:7 ESV] my brother-in-Christ

I expect you are reliable, trustworthy, and empathetic in general. No doubt, those who rely on you for leadership, advice, and knowledge, appreciate your patience and flexibility in answering their questions and your wisdom. You understand that the fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom. The LORD justified each of us who are HIS adopted sons and daughters at our salvation and cleanses us of all sin and defects. By HIS grace HE sees us as pure with impeccable character even while HE sanctifies our soul to perfectly reflect HIS image. I hope your firm foundation in character and your courage of convictions has increased along with respect for others. I pray that you and I stand firm in faith and demonstrate love to each person we interact with. ‘Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love. [Ephesians 4:15-16 ESV] my brother-in-Christ SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL.

I pray for sufficient fruit of the Holy Spirit self-control, patience, and humility for each and every one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads or listens to this prayer. I hope and pray that you and I have taken to heart the admonition of the LORD to confess our shortfalls and failures and ask the LORD to help us genuinely repent and when appropriate ask for forgiveness. Scripture reminds us ‘for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by his grace as a gift,’ [Romans 3:23 ESV] and ‘if we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.’ [1 John 1:8-9 ESV]
I lift the situation in Kabul, Afghanistan and each person who provided support to the US, UK, Canadian, and other forces as well as their family members to YOU LORD. I pray that YOU motivate the Biden administration officials and President Biden to do all they can to extricate the individuals and families from their peril. I pray that the vast majority will be able to leave Afghanistan and relocate safely in USA, UK, Canada or elsewhere. ‘Give justice to the weak and the fatherless; maintain the right of the afflicted and the destitute. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.” [Psalm 83:3-4 ESV]
I pray LORD that YOU cleanse each of YOU adopted sons and daughters of any impurity which inhibits YOUR love from flowing through us. I pray that YOUR light shines through each of when we enter a room, home, mode of common transportation. Empower us bring calm and peace into areas of turmoil. Enable our smile to be contagious. ‘Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and uphold me with a willing spirit.’ [Psalm 51:10-12 ESV]
I lift the justices and judges on US Supreme Court, the Federal district and Appellate Courts, the State Supreme Courts, the Courts in Canada, UK, Israel, India, Australia, New Zealand, Korea and Japan, and the appointment processes to YOU dear LORD. I pray that YOU shine a light on corruption among the judges and the appointment processes. I pray that YOU raise up honest, excellent and well-spoken and great listening judges to replace the corrupt as well as the retiring judges. 'A false balance is an abomination to the LORD, but a just weight is his delight. When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom. The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.’ [‘Proverbs 11:1-3 ESV]
I pray that you and I heed the admonition of the LORD on integrity
a. “Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; forgive, and you will be forgiven; give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure, you use it will be measured back to you.” [Luke 6:37-38 ESV]
b. 'But as for you, teach what accords with sound doctrine. Older men are to be sober-minded, dignified, self-controlled, sound in faith, in love, and in steadfastness. Older women likewise are to be reverent in behavior, not slanderers or slaves to much wine. They are to teach what is good, and so train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled. Likewise, urge the younger men to be self-controlled. Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, and sound speech that cannot be condemned, so that an opponent may be put to shame, having nothing evil to say about us. Bondservants are to be submissive to their own masters in everything; they are to be well-pleasing, not argumentative, not pilfering, but showing all good faith, so that in everything they may adorn the doctrine of God our Savior.' [Titus 2:1-10 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Wednesday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Thursday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

It is my friend PO2 (Join to see) and there are many other powerful forces we can put to work brother...

“Welcome to ‘Hump Day!’

There are many powerful forces at work in the universe that affect us all. Today let’s concentrate on US! That leads me to this quote…

‘The most powerful force on earth is the human soul on fire.’ —Unknown Author

Why not?

May you ignite the fuel of your most powerful forces: Integrity, love, persistence, positivity, passion, and the soul on fire; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

No doubt your humility is genuine and you do not put on airs in social interactions since you have self-confidence and have no need or desire to demean others.

I hope and pray LORD that each one YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads this prayer or hears it places our full trust in YOU. I pray for sufficient endurance and momentum for each us dear LORD, to persevere and enable others to persevere through the summer into the autumn. Do what is necessary for each of us to be trustworthy and motivated servant leaders of those who place their trust in leadership, advice and friendship by each of us. 'Therefore, be imitators of God, as beloved children. And walk in love, as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us, a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.' [Ephesians 5:1-2 ESV]
I pray that each leader who reads this prayer is focused on selfless-service to achieve our corporate and individual goals as a servant leader as modeled by the LORD. ‘When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, “Do you understand what I have done to you? You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.’ [John 13:12-14 ESV]
I lift the homeless, those afflicted with mental illness and injury, outcasts, and those troubled this night to YOU dear LORD. YOU make it clear in YOUR Word that YOU treasure the poor who walk in their integrity, the needy who are needy based on greed of others, and each other downtrodden person. 'Open your mouth for the mute, for the rights of all who are destitute. Open your mouth, judge righteously, defend the rights of the poor and needy. [Proverbs 31:8-9 ESV]
As POTUS Joe Biden, VPOTUS Kamala Harris, Secretary of Health and Human Service Merrick Brian Garland, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer and their radical progressive cohorts support induced abortion to be a right and to be funded by the Federal government including abortion outside this nation. POTUS Biden and Nancy Pelosi claim to be Roman Catholics and Kamala Harris claims to be a protestant. I pray that YOU do all that is necessary to motivate them each to repent from their support for Federally-funded induced abortion. YOUR patience is beyond our imagination ‘What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, in order to make known the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory—even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles. [Romans 9:22-24 ESV]
I pray that you and I heed the admonition of the LORD about personal integrity.
a. 'The righteous who walks in his integrity—blessed are his children after him!'' [Proverbs 20:7 (ESV)
b. 'The integrity of the upright guides them, but the crookedness of the treacherous destroys them.' [Proverbs 113 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Monday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Tuesday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.
