A DEPENDENCY ON GOD

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 pause to say, “Thank you.” They are grateful for another day that was not promised. Instead of allowing their circumstances to depict their mood, they choose happiness. Instead of allowing doubt to fester within, they pause to pray a prayer of thankfulness for what is to come. They understand that what you have purposed for them is far greater than their former experiences.

Father, help all to understand that you know all things. Therefore, place all their faith in you, through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6

THE WORD OF GOD IS ALIVE AND ACTIVE!

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 pause to praise and uplift your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. They know that it is only by grace that they are present in the body. Therefore, instead of complaining about what hasn’t occurred, they walk forward in faith, knowing that, in your timing, all prayers will definitively lead to fruition.

They understand that you know all things and have power over all things. Therefore, they will continue to put all their trust in you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all who have lost faith in your holy word. Help them to know that when they are not strong in faith, that is when they are tempted and are more likely to fall prey to the tactics of Satan. Therefore, remain strong, steadfast, and trusting in you as you clothe them with the breastplate of righteousness, walking in confidence that no weapons formed against them will prosper. Help them to cling closely to your unchanging, praying for the forgiveness of their sins as well as for discernment, guidance, direction, protection, and continued faith.

“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12
