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

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
