GOD FORGIVES, PROVIDES, PROTECTS, AND RESTORES!

Father, giving you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued guidance, grace, mercy, and favor.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because you continue to forgive, provide, protect, and restore. Because of you, they are able to withstand the wiles of the devil and push through their adversities, knowing that all experiences cause them to depend more on you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, help all to continue to depend on you through your Son, Jesus Christ, as they encounter trials and tribulations. Help all to further understand that you are the answer to all of their needs, problems, worries, and/or concerns.

“If, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!” Romans 5:10

“I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” John 14:6

BAPTISM IS ESSENTIAL 

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.

Father, as many have awakened to witness another day, they bow down on their knees to honor and glorify your holy name. 

Despite their unintentional as well as intentional sins, you continue to forgive them as they repent and redirect their walk. They understand that life is a gift from you; therefore, they pray that you continue to forgive, provide, protect, and direct them to stay on the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Father, help all to understand that you want the best for them, but they need to want the best for themselves. Help them to confess their sins, repent, and if not already, be baptized for the remission of their sins. 

“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:16

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” John 3:5

“Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Romans 6:4

Therefore, always cling to God’s unchanging hands during their good as well as their bad days.

“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:4-5
