A COST FOR ACTIONS AND INACTIONS

Father, I give you all the praise for another day that was not promised. I’m also beyond grateful for second chances to turn my wrongs into rights.

Father, as many have awakened this morning, they are also beyond grateful for second chances to turn their wrongs into rights.

Therefore, all fall to their knees to pray a prayer of gratitude and forgiveness for their thoughts, actions, and inactions.

Father, help all to understand that there is always a cost for their actions or inactions. Help all to examine themselves daily with your holy word as their light to guide them through all darkness.

“For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith with virtue, and virtue with knowledge, and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love. For if these qualities are yours and are increasing, they keep you from being ineffective or unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:5-8

A JOURNEY WITH THE LORD!

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank You,” for your continued favor, grace, and mercy. Because of you, they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, they put you first in all aspects of their life.

Despite the challenges that they face in being totally obedient to you, you continue to forgive them after their true repentance. Despite their shortcomings, your love is never-ending and always abounding.

Father, help all to focus on getting it right in accordance with your holy word. Help them to understand that you are always present and will always carry them through their darkest experiences. Therefore, cling closely to you, at all times, through life’s ups and downs.

“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11

GOD’S PURPOSE

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed day that was not promised. I am grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they also praise your holy name for another blessed day.

Because of you, they have life, and they have it more abundantly. They understand that you are the key to true happiness, peace, joy, and love.

Therefore, instead of dwelling on what did not come to fruition, they pray, push for excellence, and patiently await your blessings.

Father, help all to understand that their timing is not yours. Help them to understand that you are aware of their needs as well as their wants. Therefore, remain steadfast and focused on a true relationship with you, and all things will work out in accordance with God’s purpose.

“In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory.”

Ephesians 1:11-12

PEACE FROM THE HOLY SPIRIT!

Father, I give you all the praise as I glorify your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to glorify you and give you all the praise as well.

Despite the challenges and darkness that attempts to discourage or override their blessings, they push through by focusing on the light that you bestow upon them. 

Despite the challenges endured, to include the wrong treatment by others, they pray and stay attuned to the peace that the Holy Spirit brings and the guidance, support, and love that exudes from the Holy Spirit and within them. 

“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.”
Galatians 5:22-23

GLORIFY GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for another blessed day that was not promised.

Father, as many have awakened and have started their daily journey, they sing praises to you for your continued protection and blessings. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. 

When they were down, you blessed them by reigniting the passion for and by becoming more obedient to your Holy word. 

When they were spiritually lost, you redefined their purpose within to become more spiritually focused through lessons learned. 

When they repented of their sins, they began to witness greater blessings, favor, and continued guidance.

Moreover, when they began to talk to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, they began to have a stronger reliance on and connection with you, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. 

Father, help all to stop worrying about how friends and family see them and worry about how you see them. Help them to withstand temptation and remain strong in your Holy Word during their good and not-so-good days.

“Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.” Eph 3:20-21

Father, help all who have been displaced from their homes due to the fires. Help all who have lost loved ones. Help all who are mentally drained and have given up on life. Moreover, help all to continue to depend upon you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things.
