IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD CONSISTENT?

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 also praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.

They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly.

Despite the issues that they are dealing with, you allow them to push through to peace, joy, tranquility, harmony, and happiness.

They know that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper. Therefore, cling to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things.

Father, help all to understand that they must establish a genuine relationship with you through Jesus Christ.

Help all to not only reach out to you in times of a crisis or when they want something specific, but also maintain a consistent and ongoing relationship with you, showing gratitude and devotion at all times.

“Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch can not bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.” John 15:4

“Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord.”
1 Corinthians 15:58

EXAMINE YOURSELVES DAILY

EXAMINE YOURSELVES DAILY.

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they are grateful for another day that was not promised.

Despite falling short of your glory daily, your love never ceases. Despite their continued dependency upon worldly possessions, you continue to forgive, provide, and redirect them, their mindsets, and their actions from being negative to being positive.

Father, help all to see and understand that you come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly.

Help all to examine themselves daily, from head to toe, in accordance with your holy word and not based upon worldliness.

“Examine yourselves to see whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Or do you not realize this about yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you? — Unless indeed you fail to meet the test!”

2 Corinthians 13:5

CONSISTENTLY WALKING IN FAITH 

Father, thank you for another blessed morning. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son Jesus Christ for your agape love. 

Despite their ups and downs, they continue to push through obstacles, challenges, pain, despair, and trials beyond their understanding. They know that as long as you are present in their lives, they can make it to and through such trials and tribulations, as well as through the darkness that tries to override their blessings. 

Father, help all to push through the obstacles that they continuously face. Help them to know and understand that with you and through your Son, Jesus Christ, no weapons formed against them will prosper. Help them to consistently walk in faith despite their situation.

“And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is and that He is a rewarder of those who seek Him.” Hebrews 11:6:

PLEASE GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!

Father, I praise your holy name for the gift of life. I’m grateful for the many second chances you have granted for me to get it right. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another day that was not promised. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, they push through their obstacles and challenges knowing that you have never and will never forsake them. 

Father, help all to understand that now is the time to stop talking about it and start being about it as they begin walking the path of righteousness. 

Help them to understand that tomorrow is never promised; therefore, do that which is pleasing to God through his Son, Jesus Christ. 

“For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.” Galatians 1:10

“But just as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the gospel, so we speak, not to please man, but to please God, who tests our hearts.” 

1 Thessalonians 2:4

NEVER AN AFTERTHOUGHT 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your continued blessings and favor. Despite their shortcomings, your love never wavers nor ceases. 

When they thought that they were in this world alone, you reminded them that your love is never-ending, and you are always present in their midst. 

When they thought that every action taken to move forward in life resulted in their taking two steps backwards, they prayed to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for clarity and purpose. 

Father, help all to understand that prayer is needed before committing to do, create, or expand their territory. Help all to know that you and your Son, Jesus Christ, should never be an afterthought. Help all to pray about their situation before planning to do or deciding to do. 

 “He was chosen before the creation of the world but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.” 1 Peter 1:20-21

WILL YOU BE THE EXAMPLE?

ARMOR AND SHIELD OF PROTECTION

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to get it right.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the honor, praise, and glory. They know that today was not promised; therefore, they push through their adversities, knowing that, with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Moreover, help them to understand that putting you first is essential to making it in this world. Help them to understand that being prepared is essential, for there will be troubled and unbearable days; however, your love will continue to guide, direct, and protect them through their darkest experiences. 

“Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth and having on the breastplate of righteousness, and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.” Ephesians 6:13-18
