WHO DICTATES YOUR WALK IN LIFE?

Father, I give you all the praise for a peaceful night of rest and the gift of life on this beautiful morning that was not promised.

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

They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. 

They know that there are many who see their kindness as a weakness, failing to realize that the love that they have for all is indeed essential, as Jesus Christ says, “Love your neighbors as you love yourself.”

Father, help all to evaluate themselves in accordance with your holy word and apply such understanding. Help them to not allow others to dictate their walk in life. 

“I am the LORD your God, who teaches you for your benefit, who directs you in the way you should go.” Isaiah 48:17

“Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.” Proverbs 3:6

WHO ARE YOU ABIDING IN?

Father, I give you all the praise for this 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 another day that was not promised. They smile because they know that you are present in every aspect of their life. They are grateful for your guidance, protection, love, and peace beyond understanding. 

Father, help all who are continuously relying on others to determine their worth to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, will always love, protect, and direct them to the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Therefore, always cling to God’s unchanging hands during their good as well as their bad days.

“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. John 15:4-5

“Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Matthew 5:48

“Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.”
Philippians 3:12

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

Despite not deserving such favor, “You thought that we were worthy, so you came and changed our lives, you thought we were worth keeping, so you cleaned us up inside, you thought we were worthy to die for, so you sacrificed your life, so we could be free, we could be whole, and we can tell everyone we know.”

Father, help all to realize how blessed they are despite what they experience.
