ADORN YOURSELF WITH GOD’S LOVE

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and begun their morning journey, they sing praises of joy and happiness. 

Despite their circumstances, they smile because you have allowed them another day to make a difference. Instead of dwelling on their trials and tribulations, they push through their troubles and focus on their blessings. Instead of worrying about pleasing those who are only concerned with or about themselves, they focus on doing your will for the betterment of all situations. 

Father, help all to take time daily to wholeheartedly examine themselves. Help them to understand that life is full of ups and downs, challenges, pain, joy, happiness, and sadness.

However, with you, they are able to push through all obstacles as they adorn themselves with your armor and shield, your helmet of salvation, and your breastplate of righteousness.

“Do not let your adornment be merely outward—arranging the hair, wearing gold, or putting on fine apparel—rather let it be the hidden person of the heart, with the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is very precious in the sight of God.” 1 Peter 3:3–4

WITHSTANDING BY GOD’S GRACE AND MERCY 

Father, thank you for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to hear and soak in your Holy Word. 

As many have awakened and are beginning their daily journey, they first pray a prayer of thankfulness to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 
They also praise you for your unmerited favor. When they were challenged by the evil spirit, you never failed them and continuously showed up and showed out. Because of this, they truly understand that you are indeed always present during the good and the bad and that no weapons formed against them would prosper. 

They also praise you for your unwavering love. Because of this, they are better able to treat others as they would like to be treated. 

Father, help all to withstand the battles that they have and will encounter by trusting in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, situations, and/or encounters.

“After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”
1 Peter 5:10

“Therefore, let us draw near with confidence to the throne of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in times of need.” Hebrews 4:16

GOD, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST, IS THE ANSWER

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 sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Despite their aches and pains, they continue to press on towards the goal in order to gain the prize of salvation that awaits, which is more valuable than anything that exists in this world.

Despite falling short of your glory daily, you have instilled in them the ability to evaluate themselves wholeheartedly, in accordance with your holy word, and to become one in Christ.

They pray for forgiveness of sins and your divine direction to keep them on the straight and narrow path that leads to salvation. 

Father, help all to embrace their spiritual thirst for truth, righteousness, and love. Father, help them to know that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, are the answer to all their needs and wants.

THE LORD’S PERFECT TIMING

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because you have allowed them another day to get it right, and you continue to direct their steps. 

Because of you, they are able to withstand the wiles of the devil. Because of you, they were able to push through obstacles that were intended to negatively affect their faith. Because of you, they can love their enemies and pray for their wellbeing. Because of you, they are able to remain steadfast in prayer and supplication during their good days as well as their bad days.

Father, help all to learn to include you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, in all aspects of their lives. Help all to know that they are able to endure all things with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, help all to heed your teachings. Help them to understand that their lives are full, complete, and lacking in nothing due to your love for all. 

Moreover, help them to understand that although they will face trials and tribulations, they have a Savior who does not only hear their prayers but answers them in his perfect timing.

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because of your never-ending love. Despite their sins, your blessings continue to overflow. 

When they were at their lowest point, you brought them out of a state of depression to a state of peace and true happiness.

When they believed that they could no longer push through their adversities, you carried them through and to a place of serenity.

Father, help all to constantly and consistently seek you in all that they do. Help them realize that with you, there is never-ending healing, restoration, and renewal.

GOD’S UNSURPASSING LOVE

Father, give you all the praise for another day that was not promised. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank you,” through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another day that was not promised.

They know that it is only by your grace that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. 

Therefore, instead of complaining about their mishaps and/or circumstances, they smile as they walk in faith, knowing that you are their peace and happiness and the cause of their increased faith, regardless of any condition, atmosphere, and/or situation. 

Father, help all to lean unto you for all understandings. Help them to know that despite their challenges, insecurities, darkness, and/or difficulties in life, you are always present and will continuously direct, guide, restore, renew, and love beyond understanding.

“I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3:16-19

DEPENDENCY ON GOD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

They are grateful for this beautiful morning and their ability to continue to push through, as they depend on you for all things, despite their adversities. 

Instead of dwelling on the motives or the intentional harm that has been and continues to be inflicted upon them, they give all their worries to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

They now understand that envy and jealousy are the culprits that provoke one to inflict hurt, pain, and desolation on others.

Father, please help all who continue to experience turmoil in their lives to realize that you are faithful and will always be present to cover, protect, guide, direct, restore, and renew. Help them to call on you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and cling to your unchanging hands during the good and the bad.

“I depend on God alone; I put my hope in him. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. My salvation and honour depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter. Trust in God at all times, my people.”
Psalms 62:5-8

STEPPING INTO YOUR PURPOSE

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have been blessed to witness this special day that was not promised, they pause to say, “Thank you”! They understand, with all of their hearts, that it’s only because of your grace, mercy, and love that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. They know that throughout their journey in life, you have always covered, protected, directed, provided, and loved them beyond understanding. Therefore, instead of them focusing on what did or did not occur in accordance with their own understanding, they focuse on what did occur in accordance with your grace and mercy.

Father, help all to seek and represent you in all that they do and say. Help them to depend on you at all times. Moreover, help them to always represent you as they step into the purpose that you have established for them.

“For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus, for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10
