🎙️ Welcome to Morning Meditation For Men with S Geoffrey Monts!

Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning! Rise and shine, fellas! It's your friendly host, S Geoffrey Monts, here to kickstart your day with a dose of positivity and spiritual empowerment.

Grab that cup of coffee, grab your Bible, and let's get into this Word! It's been a minute since our last chat, hasn't it? But hey, I'm back and ready to rock!

Now, let's address the elephant in the room - my brief hiatus. Truth be told, I grappled with a little something called "fear of success." Yeah, I know, even pastors aren't immune to life's hurdles! But guess what? I've faced it head-on and I'm done with it.

So, mark your calendars, gentlemen! I'm returning with a vengeance, armed with fresh insights from the Good Book. Join me every Tuesday and Thursday at 6:00 am, as we embark on this journey together.

Remember, I LOVE YOU TO LIFE...

PEACE I'M OUTTA HERE! 😊🙏

PHILIPPIANS 3:13-14

 Brothers and sisters, I do not regard myself as having taken hold of it yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

PSALM 34:1-7

1 I will always bless the Lord: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.

2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.

3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.

4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.

5 They looked unto him, and were lightened: and their faces were not ashamed.

6 This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.

7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.

Good Morning, good morning, good morning!

I am tired, and I was just about to call it to quit. Yup, I was going to give it all up. Preaching, Studying, Praying, Churching, Pastoring. I am exhausted. It seems like nothing is clicking. Just tired.

Yesterday I was in the yard cleaning some fallen leaves and listing to some music and this scripture was being sung: This poor man cried to the Lord and the Lord heard him and saved him from all his trouble!

That was all it took for me to renege on my quit!

Standing in the yard with that blower going and music in my ear I heard Holy Spirit say, "You have not talked to me about any of this. Sean, the problem is that you are trying to handle all of this on your own. You are not consulting with me about any of the stuff you are dealing with." I said to Holy Spirit, I am just frustrated, I am just tired. He told me, "The only way that you will find rest is to come to me. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me [following Me as My disciple], for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST (renewal, blessed quiet) FOR YOUR SOULS."

As you go throughout your day today remember these things. Number one, Holy Spirit is here for you. He is here to help you out of all your troubles. Number two, your salvation, your freedom, your deliverance is just one scream away!

Father God, creator of all, and most importantly creator of us we ask that you will show us how to take our burdens, our cares, and our concerns to you and really leave them with you. Thank you in advance for what you are doing in our lives. Thank you for hearing our individual screams! And, Abba, thank you for saving us from ourselves!

1 Peter 5:6-8

6 Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God [set aside self-righteous pride], so that He may exalt you [to a place of honor in His service] at the appropriate time, 7 casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]. 8 Be sober [well balanced and self-disciplined], and be alert and cautious at all times. That enemy of yours, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion [fiercely hungry], seeking someone to devour.

VULNERABLE TO VICTORY

But the free gift [of God] is not like the trespass [because the gift of grace overwhelms the fall of man]. For if many died by one man’s trespass [Adam’s sin], much more [abundantly] did God’s grace and the gift [that comes] by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, overflow to [benefit] the many.

Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew! I am glad you are here. It is my prayer that the MorningMeditationForMen podcast are helping you to obtain and maintain a deep rich relationship with Jesus Christ, all while enjoying a deliciously brewed rich cup of coffee! Have a super day brothers. Peace and Blessings and thank you for listening! I’m outta here! PEACE!

It’s In the Promise:

Peace with God

Romans 5:1-5

Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we also have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we celebrate in hope of the glory of God. And not only this, but we also celebrate in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

How do you obtain PEACE with God? First, you need to understand what PEACE is. Peace is a state of tranquility, exempt from the rage and havoc of war. It is security, safety, prosperity, and contentedness. When we have Jesus Christ in our life we operate in peace. This however does not mean that there will be an absence of conflict. It simply means that you will not be affected by the circumstances going on around you.

With a quick unconcerned look at the lead scripture, we see that the Apostle Paul reminds us of the celebratory stance that we should take when life’s issues, concerns, and challenges come upon us. He outlines that with every tribulation we grow. It sort of reminds me of the childhood song that I would sing, “We are climbing Jacob’s ladder, every rung goes higher and higher.”

When we decide to grow in our relationship we are constantly bettering ourselves. So you see it is in the promise, that we have peace with God.

Pray:

God, I am well aware that life will give challenges and question our peace. But today God we are glad to declare that because of your word, because of our faith in you, and in your word, we have peace with God. Thank you for being a God who can never ever lie. Thank you for your Grace. Thank you for tribulation, perseverance, hope, and love, which ultimately bring about the Peace of God.

Amen, Amen and Amen!

Thank you for being part of the #RiseAndGrindCrew! I am glad you are here. It is my prayer that the MorningMeditationForMen podcast are helping you to obtain and maintain a deep rich relationship with Jesus Christ, all while enjoying a deliciously brewed rich cup of coffee! Have a super day brothers. Peace and Blessings and thank you for listening! I’m outta here! PEACE!

1. He Provides

2. He Protects

3. He Prospers

4. He Parades

2 Peter 1:1-15 NASB

To those who have received a faith of the same [b]kind as ours, [c]by the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus [d]our Lord, 3 for His divine power has granted to us everything pertaining to life and godliness, through the true knowledge of Him who called us [e]by His own glory and [f]excellence. 4 Through [g]these He has granted to us His precious and magnificent promises, so that by them you may become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world on account of lust. 5 Now for this very reason also, applying all diligence, in your faith supply moral [h]excellence, and in your moral excellence, knowledge, 6 and in your knowledge, self-control, and in your self-control, perseverance, and in your perseverance, godliness, 7 and in your godliness, brotherly kindness, and in your brotherly kindness, love. 8 For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they do not make you useless nor unproductive in the true knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 For the one who lacks these qualities is blind or short-sighted, having forgotten his purification from his former sins. 10 Therefore, brothers and sisters, be all the more diligent to make certain about His calling and choice of you; for as long as you practice these things, you will never stumble; 11 for in this way the entrance into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ will be abundantly supplied to you.

12 Therefore, I will always be ready to remind you of these things, even though you already know them and have been established in the truth which is present with you. 13 I consider it right, as long as I am in this earthly [i]dwelling, to stir you up by way of reminder, 14 knowing that the laying aside of my earthly dwelling is imminent, as also our Lord Jesus Christ has made clear to me. 15 And I will also be diligent that at any time after my departure you will be able to call these things to mind.

THIS IS A PROPHETIC WORD THAT WILL CHANGE THE TRAJECTORY OF YOUR LIFE FOR THE NEXT TWENTY YEARS.  LISTEN, TAKE HEED AND BE BLESSED.  

1. YOU STAND OUT IN A CROWD

2. GOD IS WAITING TO HEAR FROM YOU

-ENLARGE MY PLACE

-EMBRACE HIS PRESCENCE

-ENJOY HIS POWER OF PROTECTION
