WHO ARE YOU DEPENDENT ON?

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 give all praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They know that they are blessed and highly favored; therefore, they continuously push forward through the darkness that attempts to discourage, cause second guessing, and have less dependency on you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Father, help all to see that you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit protect, direct, and save. Therefore, depend upon you for all things, situations, and experiences.

“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.” Psalms 62:5-8

“Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who depends on flesh for his strength, and whose heart turns away from the LORD.” Jeremiah 17

“So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.”
Galatians 3:26
