STEPPING INTO YOUR PURPOSE 

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have been blessed to witness this special day that was not promised, they pause to say, “Thank you”! They understand, with all of their hearts, that it’s only because of your grace, mercy, and love that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. They know that throughout their journey in life, you have always covered, protected, directed, provided, and loved them beyond understanding. Therefore, instead of them focusing on what did or did not occur in accordance with their own understanding, they focused on what did occur in accordance with your grace and mercy.

Father, help all to seek and represent you in all that they do and say. Help them to depend on you at all times. Moreover, help them to always represent you as they step into the purpose that you have established for them.

“For we are His workmanship created in Christ Jesus, for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.” Ephesians 2:10

GOD IS THE ANSWER 

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 smile because you continue to provide, guide, direct, restore, and renew their walk in life. 

When they fall short of your glory, your love continues to flourish for them, far beyond their comprehension. When they know to do right but choose to do what pleases their flesh, you forgive them after repentance and redirect their path and their mindset. 

Father, help all to understand that there is no greater love than yours, through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to further understand that you are the answer to all of their needs, problems, worries, sicknesses, troubles, disappointments, failures, trials, and tribulations. 

“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him. Isaiah 65:24.

PREVAILING WITH THE LORD!

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 the gift of life. It is only because of your unconditional love, grace, and mercy that they have life and have it more abundantly. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive them and redirect their path to righteousness. 

Father, help all to seek you first, giving you all the honor and praise for your continued blessings, grace, and mercy.

Father, help all to realize that their peace is derived from you and through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help all to further understand that your love is neverending and always abounding. Therefore, seek righteousness and keep the faith that, because of your grace and mercy, they will always prevail. 

“There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.” Romans 8:1-4

Father, help all to understand that you are forever present, always abounding with never-ending love, grace, and mercy. Help them to also understand that you know and see all things, awaiting for them to call on your holy name during both the good and the bad. 

“I believe that I shall look upon the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living! Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!” Psalm 27:13-14

Help them to push through it all as they continue praying, fasting, and awaiting a response from you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:31(ESV)

WILL YOU FOCUS ON GOD, THROUGH JESUS CHRIST?

Father, thank you for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened on this beautiful day that was not promised, they thank you for your grace and mercy.  They understand that today was not promised; therefore, they take full advantage of the opportunity to worship you in spirit and in truth, through your Son,  Jesus Christ.

Instead of worrying about what did or didn’t occur on yesterday, they look forward to what awaits them in accordance with your will for them. 

They give you all the praises for the gift of life, as well as for the ability to think and react appropriately, in accordance with your will for them.  They thank you for their safe dwelling place, the food that you have allowed them to posses, as well as the transportation that you have given them to make it to and from. They also thank you for the shoes and clothing that you have adorned them with, allowing  them to cover and protect their bodies appropriately. 

Moreover, they thank you for your divine direction, forgiveness, faithfulness, salvation, and love that you continuously cover them with despite their shortcomings.

Father, help all to choose you, through your Son, Jesus Christ today!  Help them to understand that all things in this world are temporary; therefore, focus on you, through your Son, Jesus Christ who has all power, as well as see and know all things. 

“We must focus on Jesus, the source and goal of our faith. He saw the joy ahead of him, so he endured death on the cross and ignored the disgrace it brought him. Now he holds the honored position—the one next to God the Father on the heavenly throne.” Hebrews 12:2 GW

NEW BABES IN CHRIST 

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to turn wrongs into rights.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise for your continued blessings, grace, mercy, and agape love. 

Despite their shortcomings, you continuously bestow blessings on them. Despite their bad decisions in life, you continue to redirect their path. Despite their weaknesses in pleasing men instead of you, you continue to pour your agape love into them.

Father, help all to take the time to evaluate themselves wholeheartedly. Help them to search the scriptures daily, rightly dividing the word of God, to show themselves approved.  

Help them to focus on pleasing you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Moreover, help them to confess their sins and be immersed in themselves in the watery grave of baptism to become a new babe in Christ.

“Except ye be converted and become as little children,” said the Lord Jesus, “ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.” Matthew 18:3

WALKING BY FAITH 

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 have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Despite their aches and pains, they push through and reach a place of peace beyond understanding. Despite their internal sadness, they smile because you continuously uplift their spirits when they feel depleted. Therefore, instead of giving in or giving up due to their current situation, they press forward in faith, knowing that you have all power, your love has never wavered, and your blessings continuously overflow.

Father, help all to realize that there will be days when they feel as if they can no longer handle their burdens; however, they should remain steadfast, knowing that no weapons formed against them will prosper as they walk by faith and leave all worries with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“For nothing will be impossible with God. Luke 1:37. For we walk by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7  So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ. Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. Romans 10:17
