GOD’S SHIELD OF PROTECTION

Father, praise your holy name for your continued blessings. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to pray a prayer of thankfulness. They know that it is only by your grace that they are wrapped in your arms of faithfulness. Therefore, they continue to trust in you for all things. They know that without you, they could not make it in this world of darkness. Therefore, they vow to remain steadfast in prayer and in your holy word. They understand that all goodness comes from you through your Son Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to come you for your shield of protection. Help them to understand that there is no greater place to than with you, through your Son Jesus Christ.

“His massive arms are wrapped around you, protecting you. You can run under his covering of majesty and hide. His arms of faithfulness are a shield keeping you from harm.” Psalms 91:4 TPT

GREATER PURPOSE FOR ALL THINGS

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 fall to their knees in prayer for bringing them through and to another blessed day in Christ. It is only because of your grace that they are able to withstand the wiles of the devil. Therefore, they continue to draw close to you for direction, guidance, protection, and discernment.

Father, help all to understand that you will never forsake them. Help them to understand that their experiences in life may seem unfair; however, they must know that you, through your Son Jesus Christ, have a greater purpose for all things.

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.” Romans 8:28

NEVER PUT OFF FOR TOMORROW

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning. I’m grateful for your light through the darkness.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to praise you for another day that was not promised. They know that it is only by your grace that they are present in the body. They understand that they are given many second chances throughout life. Therefore, instead of taking such for granted, they pause to pray for your continued discernment, guidance, direction, and protection.

Father, help all to take time out of their day to truly connect with you through your Son Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that life is not promised, so never put off for tomorrow what can be resolved or accomplished today.

“Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”— yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes.” James 4:13-14

PEACE ABOVE ALL UNDERSTANDING

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they continue to sing praises to your holy name. They know that with you, all things are possible, through your Son Jesus Christ, and in accordance with your holy word. They fail to allow negativity to sink into their spirit; therefore, they immediately pray for peace above all understanding.

Father, help all to know that they will experience many trials in life; however, they can give you all their worries because you will allow them to withstand all experiences.

Father, help all to understand that as they continue to pray and depend upon you for all things, they will be able to overcome all things as well. Therefore, cling closely to you during their good and their not so good days.

Moreover, help all to focus on and evaluate themselves instead of continuing to place judgment on others.

“Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; 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 4:5-7

A TRUE DEPENDENCY ON CHRIST

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they send praises to you for your unconditional love. It is only by your grace that they are present in the body. Therefore, they strive to continue to put you first in their life on a daily basis.

They know that nothing is impossible with you; therefore, they continue to cling to your unchanging hands.

When they are sick, you protect them throughout the process and restore their health. When they are weak, you provide them with the strength to endure pain.

When they feel defeated, you never allow them to become deflated by the circumstances of life. Instead, you push them through and to excellence!

Father, help all to realize that a dependency upon you results in renewed and restored health.

“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 15:5

GOD’S HAS ALL CONTROL

Father, give you all praise for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love, protection, guidance, restoration, and peace.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they smile because you have granted them another opportunity to get it right. They smile because they are able to examine themselves and determine where they have fallen short and repent of their sins. They smile because, despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive and redirect their path as well as their mindset.

Father, help all to understand that they always have a reason to smile, despite their pain, darkness, and/or difficulties in life. Help them to understand that with you, they have eternal life.

Father, help all to also realize that they can always depend upon you through their difficulties, because you control all things, situations, and people.

“In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.”
Ephesians 1:11-14

CALLING ON JESUS’ NAME

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank You “! They know that it is only because of your grace and mercy that they are able to witness this day. Therefore, they continue to surrender all to you. They know they must give all worries to you, for only you are able to direct their steps and set them free.

Father, help all to never allow their burdens to depict their talk, walk, and/or faith. Help all to always lean on you for understanding, reflection, and confidence. Help all to call on your name, for you will never forsake them.

“Now, why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.” Acts 22:16

“Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.” John 13

BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Father, praise your holy name for this 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 for your continued grace and mercy. Despite their shortcomings, your love for them remains constant. They pray day and night to be able to do that which pleases you instead of that which pleases man. However, they understand that both good and bad experiences are needed to grow spiritually as well as get closer to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to examine themselves daily in accordance with your holy word. Help them to always yield to temptation and put on the breastplate of righteousness daily.

“Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace.” Ephesians 6:14-17
