JESUS CHRIST IS OUR PERFECT EXAMPLE

Father, praising your holy name for this marvelously blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for second chances.  

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they pause to pray a prayer of thankfulness to you through your Son Jesus Christ.   Because of your grace and mercy, they have overcome the obstacles of yesterday and are equipped to attack the challenges of today.

Father, help all to remain focused on their relationship with you, through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that no weapons formed against them will prosper. Therefore, remain steadfast in your holy word, keeping their focus on you at all times, because you are indeed the perfect example of love, forgiveness, faithfulness, sacrifice, and peace.

“For you have been called for this purpose, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you would follow in His steps.” 
1 Peter 2:2

WORK OUT FOR THE GOOD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for giving them another day to get it right. Despite their sins, you continue to love, protect, as well as direct their steps.

When they were more concerned about making everyone else happy, you allowed them to refocus and ensure that they were their own number one priority.   When they had fallen short of their goals, you reminded them that no one else could help them obtain what you have purposed for them.

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all of their needs and/or problems. Help them to always focus on you, during their good days as well as their bad days, and all will work out for their good.

“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”  Romans 8:28

PROTECT YOUR PEACE

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to thank you for another day that was not promised.  They know that it is only by your grace that they are in their right state of mind and are focused on serving you through your Son Jesus Christ. Despite their adversaries, they push through adversities, understanding that all things are possible with you.   In addition, they know that you have covered them with your breastplate of righteousness.  

Father, help all to focus on the things that bring glory to you and sunshine in their life. Help them to know their limits and to separate themselves from anyone who dampens their spirit.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.  And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”
~Philippians 4:6-7

AS GOD HAS PURPOSED

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for your unconditional love and ultimate sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, for all can have salvation.  Despite their shortcomings, your love never dissipates.  

Father, please help all to never take your grace, mercy, and love for granted.  

Help them to examine themselves daily and always judge themselves in accordance with your holy word, and leave the judgement of others to you. 

Help all to understand that you know and see all things. Therefore, do what, and be who, you have purposed for them.

“Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” 
~2 Timothy 1:8-11

GOD’S DISCERNMENT

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.  

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say thank you! Despite their shortcomings, you continue to guide, protect, and uplift. As they focus on that which brings them closer to you, through your Son Jesus Christ, they pray for your discernment to reveal the true identity of others.

Father, help all to understand that many will say one thing, but do or feel the opposite; therefore, put their trust in you and not man.  Help all to realize that you know all things; therefore, always pray for spiritual discernment and guidance to walk the path that you have established for them.  

“For such people are false apostles, deceitful workers, masquerading as apostles of Christ.  And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light.   It is not surprising, then, if his servants also masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve.”
2 Corinthians 11:13-15

ALIGNED WITH GOD’S HOLY WORD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they awaken in peace and happiness.  They know that because of you through your Son Jesus Christ, they have been blessed with the gift of life. Therefore, instead of complaining about what didn’t or did go right, they move forward, knowing that there is a greater purpose for their experiences.  As a result, they embrace your holy word and pray accordingly.  They understand that spiritual growth comes from experiences: trials and tribulations, setbacks, heartaches, pain, challenges, and lessons learned.

Father, help all to pay more attention to your holy word, for such would instill direction, keenness, adaptability, faith, hope, trust, security, peace, love, happiness, and joy.

“Moreover whom He predestined, these He also called; whom He called, these He also justified; and whom He justified, these He also glorified.” Romans 8:30.

ALL THINGS ARE BEARABLE WITH GOD

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they first pause to give you all the glory for the gift of life.  They know that it is only by your grace and mercy that they are present in the body.  They also repent of their sins, and pray for your guidance and deliverance.

In addition, they pray for the ability to keep their minds stayed upon you, for when they are able to do such, the darkness dissipates.  

Father, help all to understand that in life, trials will come and go.  Help them to understand that some experiences may have them to doubt you and believe that they are unable to bear. However, in due time, lessons are learned, and their spiritual walk becomes more bearable.

“And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.” Romans 8:28

ENDURING ALL THINGS WITH GOD, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they give you all the glory through your Son Jesus Christ for your continued blessings.

Despite their shortcomings, your love remains constant. When they feel as if they are in a constant battle, your Holy Spirit delivers them to a place of peace and serenity. When they feel as if they are alone in this world, you pour more love upon them through their answered prayers.

Father, help all to understand that despite how things appear, you are always present protecting, guiding, comforting, and directing their steps. Help all to understand that you are always present and are in their midst. Therefore, call upon your name, through your Son Jesus Christ, for strength and the ability to endure your tests and the devil’s temptations.

“Therefore I endure all things for the elect’s sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.” 2 Timothy 2:10

OVERCOMING ALL OBSTACLES

Father, praising your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they bow to their knees in a prayer of thankfulness. They understand that in life, they will experience plights as well as good fortune. Therefore, they learn to accept the bad with the good, through prayer, and by having a total dependency upon you.  

Father, help all to make it through this day understanding that victory is indeed theirs. Help all to realize that all power comes from you, through Christ and your Holy Spirit.  Help all to have faith that, with you, they are able to push through all obstacles, for you are indeed almighty. Help all to also understand that, “obstacles aren’t meant to defeat us or deter us but to direct us and keep us dependent on God.”

“For whatever is born of God overcomes the world; and this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.” 1 John 5:4
