GOD WILL NEVER LEAVE OR FORESAKE YOU

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they glorify your holy name for another opportunity to praise your holy name. They know that it is only because of you, through your Son Jesus Christ, they have life and have it more abundantly.

Despite their bad days, you allow them to smile and push through their troubles. They know that when their plans do not turn out how they expect them to, they must continue to praise you, for you know and see all things. In addition, your plans for them are always greater than they could ever imagine.

Father, help all to understand that you are always present in their life. Help them to understand that life is better with you than without you. Help them to also understand that although trouble may arise, you will never foresake them.

“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8

WILL YOU CLING TIGHT TO GOD?

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you for another day that was not promised. Despite their challenges in life, they push through with determination to make a difference.

They understand that you are definitely the key to their livelihood, happiness, peace, and joy.

Father, help all to cling tight to you through the good and the bad, the light and the darkness, as well as the faith and the fear.

“But you shall cling to the LORD, your God, just as you have done to this day. For the LORD has driven out before you great and strong nations. And as for you, no man has been able to stand before you to this day. One man of you puts to flight a thousand, since it is the LORD, your God, who fights for you, just as he promised you. Be very careful, therefore, to love the LORD, your God.” Joshua 23:8-11

GUIDED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your love and protection.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they are filled with your Holy Spirit. They are focused on turning their wrongs into rights: sadness to happiness, and despair to joy. They are also determined to ‘brake the chain around them so that nobody else can bind them’.

Father, help all to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, are essential in their lives. Help them to understand that your Holy Spirit, which dwells within, “guides us by calling us into relationship with Jesus. The Spirit guides us by purging our sinful urges and growing his fruits. The Spirit guides us with the truth of his written word. The Spirit guides us through the process of godly discernment.”

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control; against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.” (Galatians 5:22-24).
