GOD ALLOWS SMILES FROM WITHIN

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank You”. If it weren’t for you, they would not be in the right state of mind this morning. If it were not for you, they would not have survived their most heartbreaking experience. If it were not for you, they would not have been able to push through their darkness. If it were not for you, they would not be able to understand that your love is indeed unconditional.

Father, help all to understand that when they have unfathomable experiences and pains in life, you are always present to comfort, guide, direct, restore, renew, and keep them. Help those who have experienced and continue to experience many ups and downs in life understand that there is always a greater purpose for all things.

Moreover, help them to cling to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things, and they will be able to smile from within again.

“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” Numbers 6:24-26

STAY THE COURSE

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they bow to their knees as they thank you for your grace, mercy, and unconditional love. They know that it is only by your grace that they are present in the body. In spite of their sins, after true repentance, you continue to forgive them and make them whole. Therefore, they cling closely to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, as they encounter and pass the tests in life.

Father, help all to open their eyes and understand that what goes around comes around. Help all to pray for your divine direction. Help them understand that there will be many forces trying to impede their lives. However, stay the course, for you have never and will never forsake them.

“You’re blessed when you stay on course, walking steadily on the road revealed by God. You’re blessed when you follow his directions, doing your best to find him.” Psalms 119:1-8

GOD AWAITS YOUR CALLING

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 are beginning their weekend journey, they pause to pray a prayer of thankfulness. They know that despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive them and redirect their path. They know that despite their pain, you will always provide them with the relief they need, and at the right time.

Father, help all to understand that you are always present in their lives and that you await their calling to rescue them from pain and sorrow and their willingness to give up on fighting the various obstacles that arise.

‘”Nevertheless, each person should live as a believer in whatever situation the Lord has assigned to them, just as God has called them. This is the rule I lay down in all the churches.” 1 Corinthians 7:17

NEEDED PEACE TO WITHSTAND ALL THINGS

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

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.

“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

WORK OUT FOR THE GOOD

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

Father, as many have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the glory for giving them another day to get it right. Despite their sins, you continue to love, protect, as well as direct their steps.

When they were more concerned about making everyone else happy, you allowed them to refocus and ensure that they were their own number one priority.   When they had fallen short of their goals, you reminded them that no one else could help them obtain what you have purposed for them.

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all of their needs and/or problems. Help them to always focus on you, during their good days as well as their bad days, and all will work out for their good.

“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”  Romans 8:28
