San Bernardino County is a county in the U.S. state of California. As of the 2010 census, the population was 2,035,210, up from 1,709,434 as of the 2000 census. With an area of 20,105 square miles, San Bernardino County is the largest county in the contiguous United States by area, larger than any of the nine smallest states, and larger than the four smallest states combined; and larger than the closest-sized countries of Bosnia and Herzegovina or Costa Rica.[3]
Located in the southeast California, the thinly populated deserts and mountains of this vast county stretch from the outskirts of the densely populated Riverside-San Bernardino Area to the Nevada border and the Colorado River.
The county seat is San Bernardino. The county is considered part of the Inland Empire region.
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]

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
We praise You O Lord! We magnify Your Name! We worship and adore You, for we recognize You are the only living God. Thank You for another day of life; another chance to say yes to Your will, another opportunity to glorify You in our life today. We pray each one will purpose in our heart to do our assignment for today. Help us to know our assignment is always to please You, rather than man. Our assignment is to forgive those who have wronged us, whether they ask or not. Our assignment is to have love one to another, whether they receive it or not. Our assignment is to praise You with the way we talk and in the things we do, whether we feel like it or not. Our assignment is to work out our purpose for living today. Help each one to know the assignment for our life is our responsibility; the assignment of others is their responsibility and there is nothing we can do to make anyone complete their assignment—trying to do so will only cause heartache, stress, and frustration. We pray each one acknowledge You first in all we do and not forget to say, “Thank You Lord for the victory in advance!” In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.

Oh Lord how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! We declare there is NONE like You. Thank You for being the source of our strength and the strength of our life. There is no way we could live without You, so we praise You for living in us. There is so much going on around us, people are suffering hurt, confusion, trouble and so much more; thank You for being faithful to Your Word, thank You for being with us through it all. We don’t always understand why things happen the way they do, but Lord because You have been with us through it all, we will continue to trust You in it all. We’re praying for Bishop Willie Williams and family as they deal with the hurt of the passing of their granddaughter. We pray You comfort them and grant them peace. We’re also praying for Debbie Taylor as she recovers from surgery. We’re trusting You for an expedient complete healing. Thank You Lord for the privilege to pray and expect the movement of Your mighty hand. Thank You Lord for the benefit of You hearing and answering our prayers. We will continue to talk to You, trust You and thank You. It is well with our soul. It’s well because our life is in Your hands and we trust You to continue to do all things well.

God we praise You because You are faithful. We praise You because there is no failure in You. We praise You because there has never been a time in our life You did not answer our call. We confess we have not always liked Your answer, but by and by we’re learning Your Word is true; You work all things together for our good, even when things didn’t work out. Thank You Lord for Your unconditional love, always. We thank You Lord because even when we made wrong choices and the consequences were ours, You still kept Your Word and never left us. We have so much to be grateful for; Lord, thank You for all You’ve done for us. Thank You for always keeping Your Word to us. You are a mighty God and we love You for always being mighty in our life. We owe You the praise and we shall praise You with our life today. We lift unto You the family of our fellow alumni, Donna Grissom-Robinson, who has transitioned out of this life into the life, that has been promised. Strengthen,Bless, and remind them, that earth has no sorrow, that Heaven cannot heal.Thank You God, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Lord we praise You for life, health and strength. Happiness is good, but it depends on our situation; we’re thankful because we know the joy of the Lord is our strength, and the peace of God surpasses all understanding always, in every situation.. Our testimony today is, it’s good to know Jesus. Lord, we have experienced good times, hard times, happy times, sad times, struggling times, hurtful times, joyful times, confused times and stressful times; our testimony is, You have kept us in the midst of it ALL. We ask a special touch from You on the bereaved families (DuBois), comfort them. Speak healing to those who are experiencing health challenges. We pray a special prayer for Bishop Eldoris Bonner. Speak clarity to those who are doing their best but still don’t know what to do. Give direction to those aimlessly wandering. Give strength and speak deliverance to those who are struggling with strongholds. God we trust You to move mightily in our lives, we pray each one has the faith to say, I believe God. It’s a great day and we are expecting great things from our great God, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
VALENTINE’S DAY
Candy, flowers, diamonds, rubies, steak and lobster, champagne, wine, good company, laughs, blushing and “goo-goo” eyes will all be happening on Valentine’s Day. Congratulations to all valentines!!!
Now, got a question for you, did you stop to love on yourself today? Before you received one rose, one bottle of cologne, or ate one shrimp, did you notice how beautiful you are, both inside and out? Your date for the night, why him? Why her? Do they make you happy? Do they make you smile? What would you do if he/she wasn’t there to make you happy or make you smile? Would you still love on yourself?
Sadly enough, many couples will celebrate Valentine’s Day who really don’t know what true love is. They don’t know what it is to truly love themselves. Without someone on their arm or in their bed they are lonely. No one to talk to or hang out with they are bored. That’s really sad. It’s sad because we are all special; we’re unique, beautifully and wonderfully made. Love YOU! Whitney said it best, “Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.”
If you don’t have a valentine, it’s OK. When you love who you are, all of you, every day is Valentine’s Day.
Valentine’s Day is for lovers, why don’t we commit to loving ourselves. Take a look in the mirror and say, “I love you, Happy Valentine’s Day”.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isa. 40:31
Our Father Who art in heaven, we thank You for this day. We thank You Father for this very moment, for we are in our best state of mind when we're talking to You. We thank You for Your right now peace. We thank You for Your right now love. We thank You for Your right now joy. We thank You for Your right now contentment. We thank You Lord for being our very present help, our right now Lord and Savior, for You are always already there, before we call. Thank You Jesus!! We pray that You will lead, guide and direct our paths throughout this day and that we will have the courage to only follow Your lead. Lord, we pray that You will remind us throughout this day, that absolutely nothing about this day will take You by surprise, so it is best to keep trusting You, for You know how to lead us around stumbling blocks; You know how to give us the strength to climb the mountains we MUST climb; And, You know how to encourage and keep us safe through the situation we must face; So, since You know how, give us the patience, courage, strength and desire to wait on the direction of Your hand. We praise You Father, in advance, for the victories we will experience this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
O Lord, our God, it’s good to give thanks unto You, O mighty God. We’re thankful for another beautiful day filled with Your mercy and grace. We’re thankful for the breath in our body, for we recognize we have another chance to do things right. We have another chance to please You. We have another chance to take another step in our purpose. We have another chance to say no to our way, and yes to Your way. You are an awesome God! We praise You for being everywhere all at the same time. We praise You for knowing the past, the present and the future. We praise You for being all powerful. Lord, we praise You because there is never a time when You’re not with us. We love You because You know everything there is to know about us and You still have a purpose for our life; You still love us unconditionally. Lord thank You for proving to us over and over that there is NONE like You! We’re praying for Myra Payton as she prepares to enter the operating room. Surround her with Your love, envelop her with Your peace and speak healing to her body. Today is a good day, we give You praise in advance for the first day of the best days of our life, in Jesus Name, Amen.
