WITH YOU, LORD!

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many are continuing their morning journey, they sing praises to you for your love, grace, and mercy. Despite their continued ups and downs in life, they move forward knowing that all things are possible with you and that through their downs, you have never forsaken them. They pray for your continued guidance despite their downs in life. They know that it is only because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit, that they are able to stand through and beyond the continued tests that they encounter.

Father, help all to study your word daily, rightly dividing it, to show themselves approved. Help them to stop leaning on their own understanding, for their thoughts are not your thoughts. Moreover, help them to cling to you through their good and bad days, for you are always present and will allow them to withstand all things as they depend upon you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”
1 Joshua 1:9

WILL YOU CLING TIGHT TO GOD?

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

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you for another day that was not promised. Despite their challenges in life, they push through with determination to make a difference. Instead of giving up or giving in, they pause to say a prayer of thankfulness and for the willpower to overcome all challenges. They understand that you are definitely the key to their livelihood, happiness, peace, and joy.

Father, help all to cling tight to you through the good and the bad, the light and the darkness, as well as the faith and the fear.

“But you shall cling to the LORD, your God, just as you have done to this day. For the LORD has driven out before you great and strong nations. And as for you, no man has been able to stand before you to this day. One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the LORD, your God, who fights for you, just as he promised you. Be very careful, therefore, to love the LORD, your God.” Joshua 23:8-11

DO NOT DELAY, TOMORROW IS NOT PROMISED 

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for another day that was not promised. They know that it is only by your grace that they are worthy to walk, talk, hear, see, think, and/or smell. Therefore, instead of complaining about what isn’t going right, they focus on living righteously through it all. Instead of doubting possibilities, they hold on tightly to the hope that is derived from you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

Father, help all to understand that you are all powerful, forever fateful, never forsaking, and always abounding. Help all to further understand that it is only because of your grace and mercy that they are given many second chances to get their lives together. Therefore, do not delay, because tomorrow is not promised.

“But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you. Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” Matthew 6:33-34

GOD, JESUS CHRIST, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT!

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile, for they know that it is only by your grace that they have life. Therefore, they shout with joy, as if they were on a mountaintop, that despite what the enemy had planned for them, they were victorious in Christ. They know that despite how things appear, your Son, Jesus Christ, has already established their path.

Father, help all to know that when they trust in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, all things are durable, possible, and attainable. Help them to also understand that your holy spirit dwells in them and continuously directs their walk in life.

“In the beginning was the Word (the Word became flesh… Jesus Christ), and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” He was with God in the beginning.

Through him, all things were made; without him, nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.”
John 1:1-5

BELIEVING IN GOD, JESUS, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They understand that life is not promised; therefore, they revere you through Jesus Christ for this blessing.

Father, help all who are unable to see life as a blessing due to the frequent unwanted circumstances that arise.

Help them to understand that life’s experiences sometimes occur so that they can become closer and more dependent on you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Therefore, never allow the bad circumstances in life to cause their faith to diminish. Moreover, help them to understand that there is a greater purpose for all things.

“And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you.” Matthew 28:18-20

GOD KNOWS YOUR HEART, SO STAY CONSTANT

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your second chance.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for the gift of life. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to allow them to withstand the wiles of the devil. Despite their love for all, your love is the only constant in their life. Despite their concern and care for everyone, you are the only one who reciprocates this.

Father, help all who are continuously fulfilling the needs of others; however, such care is never provided or reciprocated.

Moreover, help all who experience the aforementioned to continue to be the people you have ordained them to be. In addition, instead of being angry or hurt, help them to continue to do your will through it all.

“But the Lord said to Samuel, Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they send praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They know that it is only by your grace and mercy that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. Therefore, instead of dwelling on the negativity that arises daily, they focus on the peace that you allow to reside within them.

Father, help all to know that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly. Help them to understand that you “give power to the faint, and to him who has no might, you increases strength.”

Therefore, do not faint when troubles arise, for “You have been given the God-power within you to have the good you desire.” Luke 17:21

TOTAL DEPENDENCE ON GOD THROUGH CHRIST 

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say a prayer of thankfulness. They know that it is only because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, that they have life.

Father, help all to know that there will be days where they may want to give up; however, they must remember that the trials in life are tests or measures needed to push them to a total dependence upon you through Christ, and not a dependence upon themselves or man.

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For the sake of Christ, then, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and calamities. For when I am weak, then I am strong.
2 Corinthians 12:9–10
