VICTORY IN GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!

Father, 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 sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your unconditional love. 

Despite their needs and wants, you continue to put a smile on their faces. Your love is unexplainable, unmatchable, and never-ending. 

They know that you are the reason that they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, instead of dwelling on their imperfections or the intentional harm that others inflict upon them, they push through their adversities, obstacles, and darkness in faith, knowing that with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, they will always be victorious! 

“The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.” 
1 Corinthians 15:56-58

It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” Jeremiah 17:7-8

WILL YOU PUT ON CHRIST TODAY?

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

Father, as all have been blessed to witness another beautiful morning in Christ, they smile, for you have given them another day that was not promised. 

Father, as many are attending worship services today, please allow your Holy Spirit to keep them focused on the word that you have given your faithful servants to share with them. Help them to commit their lives to you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, by confessing their sins, repenting of them, and emerging in the grave water of baptism in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

“And Peter said to them, “Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Acts 2:38

WITHSTANDING BY GOD’S GRACE AND MERCY 

Father, thank you for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to hear and soak in your Holy Word. 

As many have awakened and are beginning their daily journey, they first pray a prayer of thankfulness to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Because of this, they truly understand that you are indeed always present during the good and the bad and that no weapons formed against them would prosper. 

They also praise you for your unwavering love. Because of this, they are better able to treat others as they would like to be treated. 

Father, help all to withstand the battles that they have and will encounter by trusting in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, situations, and/or encounters.

“After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself perfect, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3:16-19

DEPENDENCY ON GOD

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

Father, as many have awakened and begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

They are grateful for this beautiful morning and their ability to continue to push through, as they depend on you for all things, despite their adversities. 

Instead of dwelling on the motives or the intentional harm that has been and continues to be inflicted upon them, they give all their worries to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

They now understand that envy and jealousy are the culprits that provoke one to inflict hurt, pain, and desolation on others.

Father, please help all who continue to experience turmoil in their lives to realize that you are faithful and will always be present to cover, protect, guide, direct, restore, and renew. Help them to call on you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and cling to your unchanging hands during the good and the bad.

“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. My salvation and honour depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter. Trust in God at all times, my people.”
Psalms 62:5-8
