EVALUATE YOUR MOTIVES

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to acknowledge you and your Son, Jesus Christ, for your continued blessings, grace, mercy, and favor. They know that no weapons formed against them will prosper. They know that despite how things appear, your love for them is never-ending and always abounding.

Father, help all who are offended by your name to realize that there is no greater name. Help them to understand that you know, see, and hear all things. Therefore, evaluate themselves, their thoughts, and their actions and repent of all things contrary to your Holy Word.

“The LORD said: It isn’t too late. You can still return to me with all your heart. Start crying and mourning!”
Joel 2:12-13

BAPTISM IS ESSENTIAL

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.

Father, as many have awakened to witness another day, they bow down on their knees to honor and glorify your holy name.

Despite their unintentional as well as intentional sins, you continue to forgive them as they repent and redirect their walk. They understand that life is a gift from you; therefore, they pray that you continue to forgive, provide, protect, and direct them to stay on the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Father, help all to understand that you want the best for them, but they need to want the best for themselves. Help them to confess their sins, repent, and if not already, be baptized for the remission of their sins.

“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:16

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” John 3:5

“Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Romans 6:4
