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

GOD’S ESTABLISHED PATH

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed #SONday!  I’m grateful for your faithfulness.  

Father, as many have begun this set aside day, to worship you and praise your holy name through your Son Jesus Christ, they are filled with joy and happiness. They know that it is only because of your love that they are able to push through the darkness that was meant to deplete their happiness as well as their love for you through your Son Jesus Christ.  However, through it all, the darkness caused a total dependency upon you through Jesus Christ.  

Father, help all to understand that there is a greater purpose for all things; therefore, pray constantly and depend upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, because their path has already been established.

“And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.”  Isaiah 58:11

GOD’S LOVE

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 give you all the praise for allowing them another opportunity to get it right.  They smile because you continue to encamp your angels around them throughout the day and night. Although they try their hardest not to sin, it is inevitable because no one is perfect and all sin and fall short of your glory daily. Therefore, they pray that you keep them on the straight and narrow path to salvation, as they repent and are forgiven of such sins.

Father, help all to understand that no one is perfect.  Help them to understand that was the purpose of allowing your Son, Jesus Christ, to die and be resurrected so that all could have salvation.  

Father, help all to further understand that grace and mercy came as a result of your ultimate sacrifice. Therefore, they must serve you, through Christ, in all that they do.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”  
John 3:16

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they pause to thank you for your goodness.  When they were sick, you healed them from head to toe. When they were challenged, you allowed them to stand firm in their decisions despite their disapproval of men.

Father, help all to continue to trust in your holy powers to pull and/or push them through their darkest experiences.  Help them to always focus on pleasing you, through your Son Jesus Christ, in all things and/or situations.

“Our purpose is to please God, not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts” 1 Thessalonians 2:4

Father, help all to focus on the things that bring glory to you and sunshine in their life. Help them to know their limits and to separate themselves from anyone who dampens their spirit.

“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.”

AS GOD HAS PURPOSED

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

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for your unconditional love and ultimate sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, for all can have salvation.  Despite their shortcomings, your love never dissipates.  

Father, please help all to never take your grace, mercy, and love for granted.  

Help them to examine themselves daily and always judge themselves in accordance with your holy word, and leave the judgement of others to you. 

Help all to understand that you know and see all things. Therefore, do what, and be who, you have purposed for them.

“Therefore do not be ashamed of the testimony about our Lord, nor of me his prisoner, but share in suffering for the gospel by the power of God, who saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works but because of his own purpose and grace, which he gave us in Christ Jesus before the ages began, and which now has been manifested through the appearing of our Saviour Christ Jesus, who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel.” 
~2 Timothy 1:8-11
