TRUSTING GOD THROUGH IT ALL

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

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.

Father, because of you, they are able to push through obstacles that once caused their faith to waiver. Because of you, they are able to walk in faith through their trials and tribulations. They understand that troubles will come and they will go; however, as long as they depend upon you for all things, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

They further understand that without you, their lives can be compared to walking on a tight rope without a safety net to catch them if they fall. Therefore, they pray for your Holy Spirit to guide, direct, and protect them through their darkness as well as their blessings.

Father, help all to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, are essential to making it in this world of sin and darkness. Help all to stop worrying about how they are perceived by those in the world and concentrate on how they are perceived in your eyes.

“In you, Lord my God, I put my trust. I trust in you; do not let me be put to shame, nor let my enemies triumph over me.”
Psalm 25:1-2

GOD’S UNCHANGING HANDS

Father, I give you all the praise and glory for another blessed morning that was not promised. I’m grateful for your unchanging hands.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they fall to their knees and give you praise for another blessed morning that was not promised. They smile because you are forever faithful and always present during their good and bad experiences. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life, and they have it more abundantly.

Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive, provide, protect, restore, renew, and love them. They know that there is no greater love than yours through your Son, Jesus Christ. They are grateful for your Holy Spirit’s guidance, direction, and peace through their storms of life.

Father, help all to understand that life is better with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Although they continue to experience heartache and troubles, their faith in you through your Son, Jesus Christ, brings them through unharmed.

“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:38–39

A TRUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

Father, I praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your second chance and opportunities to get it right. If it wasn’t for you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, there would be no smiles, happiness, peace, joy, or repentance. They know that it is only by your grace and mercy that they have life and have it more abundantly.

Father, help all to understand the importance of a true relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that there is no greater love, protection, guidance, direction, peace, or salvation without you through Christ.

“Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.  For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.” John 17:1-5

THE HOLY SPIRIT GUIDES ALL WHO BELIEVE IN JESUS

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 pause to think about your continued blessings, despite their shortcomings. Instead of allowing them to live in a state of depression due to their actions or inactions, you forgive them after their true repentance. You continue to love, uplift, protect, and guide them through their difficulties and to the path that you have established for them before they were even conceived by their parents.  Your love is never-ending and always abounding.

Father, help all to understand your purpose for them. Help them to realize that they are not here by happenstance because you have established their purpose prior to their conception.

Father, help all to truly look at themselves from within, not how they believe they are seen from the viewpoint of others. Help them to read your holy word and compare their thoughts and actions to it. Moreover, help all to establish a true relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, so that the Holy Spirit can guide their thoughts and their steps.

“Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He told His disciples that He would send one who would teach and guide all those who believe in Him (Acts 1:5; John 14:26; 16:7). Jesus’ promise was fulfilled less than two weeks later when the Holy Spirit came in power on the believers at Pentecost (Acts 2).”

NEVERENDING SPIRITUAL CONNECTION

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

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, grace, and mercy. They know that with you, all things are possible. They know that their lives are better with you, and because of that, they aim to please you in all that they do. They know that you have all the power and authority over all things, situations, and/or people. They know that despite their shortcomings, you continue to instill in them pure excellence, love, forgiveness, and the importance of remaining steadfast in prayer and supplication.

Father, help all who find solace in material things instead of their spiritual attunement. Help them to understand that material things will deteriorate in due time, whereas their spiritual connection with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, is neverending.

“Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.” Ephesians 4:15-16

AN ABUNDANT LIFE

Father, I am giving you all the praise and glory for another day of being present in the body. It is only by your grace that many have awakened to witness another blessed morning in Christ.

Despite the negatives that they have encountered, they continue to push through their adversities, knowing that you are always present through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

Therefore, they continue to praise and uplift your holy name because they are overly grateful for your unconditional love, grace, and mercy.

Father, help all who continue to struggle with trusting in you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things. Help them to understand that you come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly.

“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” Romans 15:13

WITHSTANDING THE UPS AND DOWNS OF LIFE

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

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you for your grace and mercy. Because of you, they are able to make it through their most trying moments and turn their sadness into happiness. Because of you, they are able to withstand the ups and downs of life and turn their difficulties into lessons learned. Because of you, they are able to look past the evil that others have towards them and pray for their wellbeing.

Father, help all to understand that, throughout their darkest moments, they should continue to forgive others and trust in you for all things. Help all to further understand that although no one is perfect in this world and all sin and fall short of your glory, it does not mean that one has to continue accepting and allowing others to hurt them emotionally, physically, or mentally. Therefore, separate themselves from anyone who does not love, respect, and/or treat them as if they matter.

“To everything there is a season, a time for every purpose under heaven: . . . a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance.” Ecclesiastes  3:1-4

THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Father, I am giving you all the praise for allowing me to witness another day that was not promised. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning routine, they pause to say a prayer of thankfulness. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life. Therefore, instead of complaining about what hasn’t occurred or what did occur, they focus on the blessings that you continue to bestow upon them, despite their good or bad.  

Father, help all to evaluate themselves throughout the day to determine who they are representing, you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, or Satan.

Father, help all to understand that prayer is needed throughout the day to better guide them to the path of righteousness.

“And be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.” Philippians 3:9.

FATHER, SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT 

Father, I am giving you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to worship you in spirit and in truth.

Father, as many have awakened on this beautiful morning in Christ, they give you all the glory for another day that was not promised.  Despite their disobedience, your love is never-ending. Despite their sins, you continue to allow them to withstand the wiles of the devil and keep them on the path of righteousness.

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all of their needs, problems, worries, sicknesses, disappointments, failures, trials, setbacks, setups, fears, sadness, heartaches, challenges, and pains. Help them to acknowledge their sins, repent of them, confess Christ, and be baptized in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost to become one with you.

“Now when all the people were baptized, and when Jesus also had been baptized and was praying, the heavens were opened, and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form, like a dove; and a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.” Luke 3:21-22
