PRAY FOR GOD’S PROTECTION 

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

Father, as many have awakened to witness another beautiful morning, they concentrate on the blessings instead of the downs of life. They understand that there is always a greater purpose for all things that occur. Some repercussions are greater than others; however, choosing to depend totally on you allows your children to lay all their burdens, heartaches, pain, challenges, and anxiety on you.

Father, help all to trust in you, for you know all things, and your love is genuine and never-ending. Help all to understand that jealousy and covetousness are instilled in those who claim to be the closest to them. Therefore, always pray for your armor and shield to protect them from the wiles of the devil.

“He said, “The LORD is my rock, my fortress, my Savior. My God is my rock. I can run to him for safety. He is my shield, my saving strength, my defender, and my place of safety. The Lord saves me from those who want to harm me. I will call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I will be saved from my enemies.”

2 Samuel 22: 2-4

They know that it is only because of your grace, mercy, and unconditional love that they are able to witness this beautiful morning.

“Jesus therefore answered and said unto them, Murmur not among yourselves. No man can come to me except the Father, who sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

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.

“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.
