YOU DO NOT BELONG TO YOURSELF

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 kneel in prayer in thankfulness for this blessed morning that was not promised.

They know that it is only because of your grace, mercy, and love that they have life. They know that, despite their shortcomings, your love for them is neverending.

They know that there is no greater love than yours, through your Son, Jesus Christ. They know that your Holy Spirit dwells within all who trust in your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to know or understand that their “physical body” is a temple or sanctuary for the Holy Spirit, who lives in them and who was given to them by God.”

Help all to further know or understand that they do not belong to themselves, for they were bought by God for a price. So, honor God with their [physical] body.”

“When we give our lives to Christ, when we turn to Him in repentance and faith, He cleanses us of our sins, and He comes to live within us by His Holy Spirit. Once that happens, He begins to rule in our lives. In other words, He sets up His kingdom—His rule—within us. Only then does God take up residence in our lives through His Son.”

“What? Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own?” 1 Corinthians 6:19

NOTHING COMPARES TO GOD’S LOVE

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your grace and mercy.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for your “peace, which surpasses all understanding.”

When they were in the midst of darkness, they feared not, for your Holy Spirit guided them through and to peace and serenity.

When they were challenged beyond measure, you provided them with the fortitude to rise above the occasion.

When they feared what was to come, they were reminded of your peace, which surpasses all understanding.

Father, help all to understand that there is neither one nor anything on earth that compares to your holy powers. Help them to put all their trust in you and continue to trust you for all things.

“Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”
Philippians 4:7

“So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil. Therefore, knowing the fear of the Lord, we persuade others.” 2 Corinthians 5:9–11
