PUSHING THROUGH WITH GOD 

Father, I give you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your unconditional love and continued blessings, guidance, and favor.

They know that it is only by your grace that they can smile again. After experiencing various physical and mental pains, they almost gave up on life, but you carried them through their darkest nights and to their brightest days. You revived their purpose in life and redirected their path and mindset. 

Father, help all to understand that with you, all things are bearable. Therefore, put on your armor and shield, breastplate of righteousness, and helmet of salvation. 

“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”
James 1:12

DESPITE THEIR SHORTCOMINGS

Father, praising your holy name for another blessed morning. I am grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise for another blessed morning as well. Despite their shortcomings, you continuously forgive, redirect, provide, protect, support, and love beyond understanding. 

Father, help all to examine themselves wholeheartedly to determine their shortcomings and to repent of such so that they can be made new in your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that you know their inner thoughts and hear their prayers. Therefore, aim to do that which is right in accordance with your holy word and will for them.

Father, help all to remain strong and steadfastly focused on your holy word. Help all to examine themselves daily and focus on increasing positivity while decreasing negativity in their lives. Help them by directing their path and guiding their mindsets to that which expands excellency, obedience, and faithfulness.

WHAT IS YOUR FOCUS?

Father, I praise you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another blessed morning. I’m grateful for your unconditional love. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say a prayer of thanksgiving and of repentance. They understand that life is a gift from you, and it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. They push through adversities and challenges knowing that you have never failed them. They push through heartaches knowing that you have always uplifted their spirits and redirected their mindset to think logically and spiritually about the not-so-good things, events, and/or situations.

Father, help all to understand that there will be troubled days as well as happy days; therefore, don’t worry so much about the events of the day, but focus on fulfilling the plans that you have for them. 

“Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. Don’t get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.”

PUSHING THROUGH WITH FAITH 

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued favor.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another day that was not promised.

Father, help all to understand that tomorrow is never promised; therefore, push forward knowing that you have never forsaken them and will always be present to carry them through their trials and darkest experiences. 

“Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.” 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

“So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ.” Galatians 3:26-27
