BECAUSE OF THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST!

Father, I give you all the praise for another blessed morning that was not promised. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise as well. They know that despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive and redirect their path. They know that the good that has been done for or to them has been because of your grace and mercy. They know that their not-so-good days are only bearable because of you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, they continue to push through their pain, obstacles, depression, challenges, and anxiety knowing that you have never forsaken them and will always come through for them. 

Father, help all to realize that you, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit are the reason for their existence, deliverance, perseverance, and hope. Help all to know that once they accept Jesus Christ as their Savior through words and deeds, they are covered by the blood of Jesus Christ.

“In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace.” Ephesians 1:7

“For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.” Peter 1:18-19

Father, give you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued favor.

Father, help all to take heed, because no one on earth knows the time in which the final judgment will take place.

“”The final judgment will take place when Christ comes again—he died once as an offering for the sins of many, and he will appear a second time in judgment, when he will save his followers, those who are eagerly waiting for him. This clear anticipation of Christ’s return.”” Hebrews 10:25

“”When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.  He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.””

“”Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world.  For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.””  Matthew 29:31-39
