AIMING FOR PERFECTION IN GOD’S EYES

Father, I 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 give you all the praise and glory for this blessed morning that was not promised.

Because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, they are directed to the path of righteousness. They smile because they have life and have it more abundantly. They are grateful for your unconditional love that you continuously bestow upon them despite their shortcomings.

Father, help all to understand that you see and know all things. Help them to commit to serving you wholeheartedly through your Son, Jesus Christ, at all times.

Despite that there is no one on this earth that is perfect, they aim as close as possible, becoming perfect in your eyes.

“Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Matthew 5:48

“Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.”
Philippians 3:12

GOD’S NEVER-ENDING LOVE

UNDERSTANDING BY AND BY

Father, I give praise to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your continued blessings. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they thank you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your blessings. They know that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly.

Father, help all to open their eyes to what they have endured or will endure to realize that nothing is possible without you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit. Help all to remain steadfast and focused on your holy word; apply lessons learned, and they will soon understand it by and by.

WILL YOU CHOOSE GOD OVER THE WORLD?

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ! I am grateful for the gift of life and another opportunity to turn wrongs into rights.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they continue to push through their pain to peace and happiness. Despite their trials and adversities experienced, they find relief in knowing that you will never forsake them. Despite their shortcomings, you answer their prayers and start them anew. Despite their doubts, you show them who you are and whose they are as you answer prayers and uplift them from pain and agony to painlessness and joy.

Father, help all to take a look within themselves to determine whose they truly are—a child of yours or a child of the world. Moreover, help them to understand that they cannot serve two masters; therefore, they must choose you or the world, knowing that you are the only one, through your Son, Jesus Christ, who will never foresake them.

“If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world; that is why the world hates you.” John 15:19

ALL IS WELL WITH JESUS CHRIST!

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because they are able to witness another day, despite such not being promised. They smile because you have granted them another opportunity to know you and have all faith in you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They pray for your continued grace and mercy. They know that it will never be possible to one day hear, “Well done, my faithful servant,” without faith in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to therefore believe in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your continued direction and protection. Help them to also know that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Moreover, because they trust in you through your Son, Jesus Christ, they sing praises as they walk the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Father, help everyone to never be ashamed of spreading the gospel. Help them to understand that you are the answer to all of their problems, needs, and/or wants. Therefore, walk in faith, knowing that with you all is well.

WHO OR WHAT HAS YOUR HEART?

Father, I am giving you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have added praising you daily to their morning ritual, they continue to praise you daily through your Son, Jesus Christ. They understand that there will be troubled days as well as great days; therefore, they continue to depend upon you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit for all things.

Father, help all to open their eyes and hearts to you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

“Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it: Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.” Matthew 22:37-40
