PEACE ABOVE ALL UNDERSTANDING

Father, praising your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they continue to sing praises to your holy name. They know that with you, all things are possible, through your Son Jesus Christ, and in accordance with your holy word. They fail to allow negativity to sink into their spirit; therefore, they immediately pray for peace above all understanding.

Father, help all to know that they will experience many trials in life; however, they can give you all their worries because you will allow them to withstand all experiences.

Father, help all to understand that as they continue to pray and depend upon you for all things, they will be able to overcome all things as well. Therefore, cling closely to you during their good and their not so good days.

Moreover, help all to focus on and evaluate themselves instead of continuing to place judgment on others.

“Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:5-7

A TRUE DEPENDENCY ON CHRIST

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they send praises to you for your unconditional love. It is only by your grace that they are present in the body. Therefore, they strive to continue to put you first in their life on a daily basis.

They know that nothing is impossible with you; therefore, they continue to cling to your unchanging hands.

When they are sick, you protect them throughout the process and restore their health. When they are weak, you provide them with the strength to endure pain.

When they feel defeated, you never allow them to become deflated by the circumstances of life. Instead, you push them through and to excellence!

Father, help all to realize that a dependency upon you results in renewed and restored health.

“I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” John 15:5

GOD’S HAS ALL CONTROL

Father, give you all praise for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love, protection, guidance, restoration, and peace.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they smile because you have granted them another opportunity to get it right. They smile because they are able to examine themselves and determine where they have fallen short and repent of their sins. They smile because, despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive and redirect their path as well as their mindset.

Father, help all to understand that they always have a reason to smile, despite their pain, darkness, and/or difficulties in life. Help them to understand that with you, they have eternal life.

Father, help all to also realize that they can always depend upon you through their difficulties, because you control all things, situations, and people.

“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. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.”
Ephesians 1:11-14

GOD KNOWS AND SEES ALL THINGS

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your gift of discernment.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they continue to uplift your holy name for being present in their life daily.

Therefore, they continue to pray, obey, and move forward in life, knowing that no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Father, help all who have darkness, jealousy, envy, and covetousness within their heart. Help all who speak one thing, but do the opposite. Moreover, help them to understand that there is nothing done in secrecy that will not be revealed.

“For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings. His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins. He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly, he shall go astray.” Proverbs 5:21-23

GOD’S ESTABLISHED PATH

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed #SONday! I’m grateful for your faithfulness.

Father, as many have begun this set aside day, to worship you and praise your holy name through your Son Jesus Christ, they are filled with joy and happiness.

However, through it all, the darkness caused a total dependency upon you through Jesus Christ.

GOD’S LOVE

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they give you all the praise for allowing them another opportunity to get it right. They smile because you continue to encamp your angels around them throughout the day and night. Although they try their hardest not to sin, it is inevitable because no one is perfect and all sin and fall short of your glory daily. Therefore, they pray that you keep them on the straight and narrow path to salvation, as they repent and are forgiven of such sins.

Father, help all to understand that no one is perfect. Help them to understand that was the purpose of allowing your Son, Jesus Christ, to die and be resurrected so that all could have salvation.

Father, help all to further understand that grace and mercy came as a result of your ultimate sacrifice. Therefore, they must serve you, through Christ, in all that they do.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile despite their pain, heartaches, challenges, health concerns, and/or thoughts. It is only because of you that they are able to push through it all. Therefore, they continue to trust in you despite their obstacles. They pray a prayer of thankfulness, through all experiences, for you are indeed the light in their darkness; the comfort in their state of confusion; the friend when they cannot trust anyone; and their psychologist when their thoughts hinder their freedom and progression in life.

Father, help all to understand that life is full of ups, downs, twists, turns, as well as downfalls. However, with you, they have the needed peace to overcome it all.
