GOD CAUSES ALL THINGS TO COME TO FRUITION

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

GOD ALLOWS SMILES FROM WITHIN

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank You”. If it weren’t for you, they would not be in the right state of mind this morning. If it were not for you, they would not have survived their most heartbreaking experience. If it were not for you, they would not have been able to push through their darkness. If it were not for you, they would not be able to understand that your love is indeed unconditional.

Father, help all to understand that when they have unfathomable experiences and pains in life, you are always present to comfort, guide, direct, restore, renew, and keep them. Help those who have experienced and continue to experience many ups and downs in life understand that there is always a greater purpose for all things.

Moreover, help them to cling to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, and they will be able to smile from within again.

“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26

GOD DELIVERS US THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning that was not promised. I’m grateful for my continued spiritual connection with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, as many have been blessed to witness another day in Christ, they praise you for another day to get it right. Despite their continued efforts to live righteously, they fall short every day. Therefore, they pray for forgiveness and a stronger will to keep you first in their daily journey.

They often feel like Paul did in Romans 7. “Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law, but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within me. What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body that is subject to death? “Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!”

Father, help all to understand that no one on this earth is perfect, and all will fall short of your glory daily; however, your Son, Jesus Christ, died and was resurrected so that all can have salvation.

Help all to pray, worship, confess their sins, repent, be baptized, and cling closely to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, daily. Help them also to remember that God knows every thought as well as the motives behind every good and bad deed.

“For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil.” Ecclesiastes 12:14

“He has delivered us from the domain of darkness and transferred us to the kingdom of his beloved Son, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.” Colossians 1:13-14.

THERE IS NO GREATER LOVE THAN GOD’S LOVE

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for your continued grace and mercy.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun  their morning journey, they thank you for the gift of life.  Despite their shortcomings, you continue to push them through and to the path of righteousness.  Despite their difficulties, they have vowed to look past yesterday and focus on today.  They know that as long as they put all their heart and trust in you, they will never be disappointed.  They further understand that you are Alpha and Omega, and you know and are in control of all things.  Although, you allow everyone to choose their path in life, you always show up to redirect them to the path that is more advantageous to accomplish what you have designed for them to accomplish, be and/or become.

Father, help all to trust in you for all things.  Help them to understand that their timing does not determine your timing and/or will for them.  Help them to understand that they should cling closely to your unchanging hands during the good as well as the bad.  Moreover, help them understand that you come so that they may life, and have it abundantly!

“For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”  Romans 5:6-8

ARE YOU CONNECTED WITH GOD?

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your comfort during the various pains that I have experienced and continue to experience.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their daily journey, they pause to say, “Thank You, Father!” Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive, provide, protect, and direct. Despite their hearing your holy word but refusing to obey it, you continue to provide a way of escape when they come into trials in which relief can only come from you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to realize that no one, no substance, no money, no popularity, no prestige, no knowledge, and no riches can provide them with the kind of love, blessings, and joy that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, can and will always provide.

Help all to turn to you only so that you can make their lives better. Help them to never jeopardize their souls by depending on men instead of putting all their faith in you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help all to understand that troubles don’t last forever. Help them to understand that experience is the best teacher of lessons learned, especially when they are in connection with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good, acceptable, and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:1-2
