HISTORY
Father Francisco Dumetz named San Bernardino on May 20, 1810, feast day of St. Bernardino of Siena.
San Bernardino County was formed from parts of Los Angeles County in 1853. Parts of the county's territory were given to Riverside County in 1893.
The Franciscans gave the name San Bernardino to the snowcapped peak in Southern
California, in honor of the saint and it is from him that the county derives its name.[2]

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Bless the Lord, O my soul and all that is within me! Lord we bless Your holy Name! You are a mighty God and we praise You because You keep doing great things for us. We praise You because You not only hear our prayers, but You answer our prayers. You’ve given us peace in the midst of storms. You’ve touched and healed our body. You’ve set the captives free. You’ve regulated minds and fixed hearts. There is none like You in all the earth, so we worship You for Who You are, all the time. Lord, things don’t always work out the way we pray, but in every situation help us to lean not to our own understanding and continue to trust You with all our heart. We’re praying for the Sweeney family as they mourn the passing of their mother. Lord, envelop them with Your peace and let them know Your promise to never leave them includes in times like these. We Pray for our Pastor, Apostle Rebecca Berry and our ministry, as we prepare for Annual Conference, Bless as only you can. We pray one for another; draw each one closer to You that we may experience more of You. Lead us to the one who is ready to be blessed by the words we speak and the actions we take, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
We praise You Jesus! We shout out “hallelujah!” because You are an incredible God and You absolutely deserve incredible praise! Lord we thank You for waking us this morning to hear the alarm clock. We thank You for opening our eyes and letting us see the bed You blessed us to rest in. We thank You because the blood is still running warm through our veins, our lungs are still breathing in and out, our heart is still beating and we still have the ability to think, rhyme and reason. Lord some are healthier than others, but we still say thank You because we’re alive and we have the privilege to say yes to Your will one more day. We pray one for another, asking that You will reveal to each one what we need to do today. Give us the strength to not waste any time stressing over things that just don’t matter. Help us to see plainly where our focus is and if we’re not focusing on pleasing You, it’s time to adjust our focus. Time is winding up, we pray each one will become more and more serious and determined to move forward with our assignment. We pray each one is prepared for the distraction today and purpose in our heart, “It will not work!” Today is a great day and we’re expecting greater things from our great God, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
We praise the Name of Jesus! We thank You for being our rock, our fortress, our deliverer, our healer, our peace and our hope. Without You we are nothing, can do nothing and we have nothing to look forward to. We thank You for this new day You privileged us to be a part of; because of You we have great expectations. We expect to have peace; we expect to have joy; we expect to receive blessings; we expect to be a blessing; we expect everywhere we go today our light will shine to make someone’s day brighter. We pray one for another, asking You to help us let brotherly love continue. We pray You mend broken hearts, bring peace to confused families and restore damaged relationships. We are willing vessels; use us as a channel to be a blessing to Your people. We have Your power, so we will let nothing steal our joy, no situation distract us; and we will make no deals with the enemy, we are already more than conquerors, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
What a Friend we have in Jesus. All our sins and grief to bear! What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer. O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer. Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged, take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness, take it to the Lord in prayer. Are we weak and heavy-laden, cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge- take it to the Lord in prayer; Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer; In His arms He’ll take and shield the, thou will find a solace there.
Lord, we’re grateful You know everything there is to know about us; You know our struggle, You know our pain. You know our insecurity, You know our weakness. You know our thoughts, You know our motive. There is nothing we can hide from You. Knowing all You know, You still love us, thank You. We pray one for another, praying today be the day we truly recognize, You already know and You’re ready, willing and able to handle what You know; You’re simply waiting on us to release it to You. Help us trust You and let IT go, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
There is none like You. No one else can touch our heart like You do. We can search throughout eternity and still we won’t fine no one like You. Lord, we praise You for the gift of life. Things may not be as well as we would like it to be, but it is well with our soul because we’re still here to experience it all. We pray each one will show all we come in contact with today how grateful we are to still be here, by glorifying You in our smile, our walk and our talk. We pray each one will pursue peace and know You are for us and that is more than the whole world against us. It’s all good! We’re praying for Jewel Aljuwani as she prepares to enter the operating room. Grant her a perfect surgery, complete healing and a restful recovery. We’re going forth today letting everyone know, it’s all good because we live, move and have our being in the Great I Am; we have all we need!!! It’s a great new day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
I ALREADY GAVE YOU THAT
Imagine having a conversation with God . . .
You: Lord, I asked You for peace, when will I get it?
God: I already gave you that, I took away the confusion, but you followed it.
You: Lord, I asked You to deliver me, how long must I wait?
God: I already gave you that, I opened the door for you to walk out, but you seem to enjoy Egypt.
You: Lord, I asked You for patience, it’s getting hard to hold on.
God: I already gave you that, the last situation you asked Me to move mightily, I told you to wait. You didn’t like it, but you developed patience, remember?
You: Lord, I asked You to help me praise You more.
God: I already gave you blessing after blessing, but you can’t seem to praise Me for now, you always want more.
You: Lord, I need a companion, a good friend, I lack a healthy relationship.
God: I already gave you My best, but my best was not “your style”, “too slow”. You chose the one who disrespects you, doesn’t value you and tries to change you.
You: Lord, I want to use the gift You gave me to use, when will I get my opportunity?
God: Are you kidding? I gave you the opportunity in your church. On your job. In your neighborhood. At the store. Why don’t you use the simple gifts, your smile, a listening ear, encouraging words—use the simple gifts first and in due time I will exalt you.
God: I’ve given you everything you asked Me for, is it My fault you continue to reject My answer? Is it My fault you don’t recognize “working together for your good?” The good news is, even though I’ve already given you everything you’ve asked for, I am merciful, I’ll do it again. Are you ready this time?

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
O how we love Jesus! We love You Lord because You first loved us. You loved us and continue to love us knowing everything there is to know about us. We lift one another, praying no one takes advantage of Your grace and mercy today. There are a number of things we can do, but we pray all we do today will be done for Your glory. We pray for strength to avoid/walk away from all negative situations and people. Open our ears that we may hear Your voice so clear; bridle our tongues that we will speak no evil; and strengthen our hands that we will do the work assigned for us to do today. We pray each one will take time today to offer praise to You. We pray each one will do something today that has to do with our purpose for being here. We purpose in our heart right now to make today count, be glorified in our life today, in Jesus Name, Amen.
