ALIGNMENT WITH GOD’S HOLY WORD

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

Despite their sins, you continue to forgive them, which allows them to start anew each morning.

Despite their continued sins, after true repentance, you continue to establish their walk in life. Therefore, they become more consciously aware of what is not of you.  As a result, you continuously redirect them to the path that leads to peace, harmony, happiness, joy, and a stronger connection with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

In addition, despite their sins, you continuously hear their prayers, confessions, and repentance, therefore forgiving and redirecting their path, thoughts, and actions to better align with the visual and true identity of a true child of God through Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to understand that you are ever-present, never forsaking, all-encompassing, and forever loving. Help them to align themselves with your holy word daily, never taking advantage of your grace, glory, and mercy.

“Come close to God, and God will come close to you. Wash your hands, you sinners; purify your hearts, for your loyalty is divided between God and the world.” James 4:8

Father, help us all to be grateful despite our downs in life. Moreover, help all to understand that if there were no downs in life, there would be no growth, as well as no dependency on you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

AIMING TO CONTINOUSLY, PLEASE GOD

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for another blessed day in Christ that was not promised.  Despite their shortcomings, your love for them remains constant.

When they were challenged beyond measure, you allowed them to resist temptation and hold on to your unchanging hands during both the good and the bad.  

When they were constantly overwhelmed with feelings of hatred and jealousy from those whom they loved and thought loved them as well, they realized that your love for them, through your Son, Jesus Christ, is the only love that is permanent without stipulations. 

Father, help all to realize that you know and see all things; therefore, keep living life aiming to please you. Help them to leave all worries and concerns with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, as they follow the path that you have established for them.


“So we make it our goal to please him, whether we are at home in the body or away from it. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad. Since, then, we know what it is to fear the Lord, we try to persuade others. What we are is plain to God, and I hope it is also plain to your conscience.”
2 Corinthians 5:9–11

WITHSTANDING THE UPS AND DOWNS OF LIFE

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