GOD’S PURPOSE PREVAILS!

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed day in Christ! I’m grateful for this opportunity to get it right.

Father, as many have made it through another beautiful day in Christ, they pause to thank you for bringing them through their many trials, sicknesses, obstacles, setbacks, heartaches, and/or  challenges. They know that it is only by your grace and mercy that they have life and have it more abundantly.  They understand that if it was not for you, they would not be in the position that they are currently in, nor would they have the lifestyle that they have grown accustomed to.

Father, help all to understand that what you have purposed for them can not be distorted, hindered, or taken away because you have all power.

Father, help all to learn to trust you and leave all their worries with you.  Help them to understand that troubles may come and go, however, as they lay their burdens and worries down, and after a sincere prayer in faith to you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, they will truly understand that you know all things and have control over all things.

“Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails. What a person desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar. The fear of the LORD leads to life; then one rests content, untouched by trouble.” Proverbs 19:21-23 New International Version (NIV)
