DEPENDING MORE ON GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

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

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for another day that was not promised. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive them of their sins and lead them to the path of righteousness. Despite their second chances, your love remains constant.

Father, help all to understand that life is what they make of it, in accordance with your will for them. Help all to remember to put you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, first and have all confidence that all will work out for their good. In addition, help all to understand that their timing is not yours; therefore, remain diligent, focused, and persistent in doing that which is right despite their woes in life.

“Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time. Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings.  And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm, and steadfast. To him be the power for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Peter 5:6–11

KEEP YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE LORD!

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

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for the gift of life and your continued blessings!

They are grateful to you for allowing them to awaken and see another day.

They have repented of their sins and prayed that they would be led by your holy spirit, but despite knowing what to do, they continue to do whatever it takes to gain worldly approval, not spiritual approval.

They say whatever sounds good to place them in the light; however, their inner being is filled with darkness and deceitfulness.

They look the part, but forget that regardless of what others may perceive, you know all things.

They gloat at the misfortunes of others, although they are consistently lifted by you during their darkest moments.

They compete against others while secretly watching their progress in life as well as your favor over their life.

They hate when others, who have a genuine relationship with you, praise you for their good as well as their bad. 

However, they still choose to seek favor from those who are accepted, worshipped, and put upon a pedestal because of their popularity and/or association with a particular group, class, and/or title.

Father, help all to tread carefully. Help them understand that you know, see, and hear everything. Moreover, no person can atone for their sins. Therefore, keep their minds on you in all areas of life.

“Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee; because he trusteth in thee.” Isaiah 26:3

Father, help all to understand that you, through your Son Jesus Christ, are the key to happiness, salvation, peace, and everlasting life.

Father, moreover, help all to realize that you came so that all can have life and live abundantly.

Father, help all to open their eyes to understand that there is a greater purpose for their existence. Help them to cling closely to you through prayer and supplication.

GOD’S PURE LOVE

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

A TRUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

Father, praising your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ!  I’m grateful for your second chances.  I’m grateful for the gift of life.  

Father, as many have been blessed to witness another day in Christ, they sing praises to you for your continued grace and mercy. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to guide, protect, renew, and restore.   Despite their adversities, you continue to sustain them through their darkness, oppression, and/or setbacks.

Father, help everyone to understand that nothing in life is promised; therefore, mintain and/or establish a true relationship with you through your Son Jesus Christ. Father, help them to also know that your love is never-ending. Therefore, cling closely to you, through your Son Jesus Christ, for all things and/or situations.

“Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.” 
Romans 8:7-10

Father, help all to never give up on life for all things turn out for the good of those who love you through your Son Jesus Christ. Help all to never lean on their own understanding, for you always have a greater purpose for all experiences.

“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
