PUT ON GOD’S ARMOR!

Father, thank you for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life and second chances to get it right.

Father, as others have awakened, they sing praises to your holy name and worship you in spirit and in truth.

They know that despite their shortcomings and challenges, you will always be present to carry, renew, lead, direct, and protect.  

They also know that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper. Therefore, they continue to push through their adversities, obstacles, and setbacks.

Father, help all to understand that with you, they are secured by the blood of your Son, Jesus Christ.  

Help them to further understand that you are the answer to all of their needs, problems, worries, and wants.

“Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then, after the battle, you will still be standing firm. Stand your ground, putting on the belt of truth and the body armor of God’s righteousness. For shoes, put on the peace that comes from the Good News so that you will be fully prepared.  In addition to all of these, hold up the shield of faith to stop the fiery arrows of the devil. Put on salvation as your helmet, and take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Pray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.” (Ephesians 13-18)

WHOSE TIMING ARE YOU TRUSTING?

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for the gift of life. They know that today would not have been possible had it not been for your grace and mercy. Despite their falling short of your glory, you continue to forgive, provide for, protect, and carry them through their ups and downs in life. They now know that there is nothing in life that is worth having if they have to live unrighteously to gain it.

Father, help all to understand that everyone has choices to make daily. Help them to understand that the choices that they make today may not only rule their tomorrow, but they could affect their life. Therefore, I pray to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things.

Help them to further understand that you have all power and authority over all things, situations, and life itself. Therefore, put all their hope, faith, and trust in you for all things, remembering that your timing does not always coincide with theirs.

“In their hearts, humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps. Proverbs 16:9

A DEPENDENCY ON GOD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your continued favor through the storms of life.

Father, as many have been blessed to witness this beautiful morning, they praise your holy name for being ever-present in their lives. They know that it is only because of your grace and mercy that they have life, and they have it abundantly. Despite their pain, agony, depression, sadness, fear, failures, setbacks, disappointments, trials, and/or tribulations, they push forward knowing that you will always be present to keep, uplift, and carry them through their most trying experiences.

Father, help all to learn to depend upon you for all things. Help them to know that despite how things may appear and how they may sometimes feel as if it is them against the world, your holy spirit is forever present in their lives. Therefore, continue to depend upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit at all times.

“My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. My health may fail, and my spirit may grow weak, but God remains the strength of my heart; he is mine forever.” Psalm 73:26
