NEVER AN AFTERTHOUGHT

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 and favor. Despite their shortcomings, your love never wavers nor ceases.

When they thought that they were in this world alone, you reminded them that your love is never-ending, and you are always present in their midst.

When they thought that every action taken to move forward in life resulted in their taking two steps backwards, they prayed to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for clarity and purpose.

Father, help all to understand that prayer is needed before committing to do, create, or expand their territory. Help all to know that you and your Son, Jesus Christ, should never be an afterthought. Help all to pray about their situation before planning to do or deciding to do.

“He was chosen before the creation of the world but was revealed in these last times for your sake. Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.” 1 Peter 1:20-21

AIMING FOR PERFECTION IN GOD’S EYES

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise and glory for this blessed morning that was not promised.

Because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, they are directed to the path of righteousness. They smile because they have life and have it more abundantly. They are grateful for your unconditional love that you continuously bestow upon them despite their shortcomings.

Despite that there is no one on this earth that is perfect, they aim as close as possible, becoming perfect in your eyes.

“Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.” Matthew 5:48

“Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.”
Philippians 3:12

TOMORROW IS NEVER PROMISED

Father, I’m giving you all the praise 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, blessings beyond measure, and an able body.

Despite their shortcomings, your love continues to overflow. Therefore, they pray for your continued grace and mercy as they aim to walk the path of righteousness.

Father, help all to establish a true relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that tomorrow is never promised.

“Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow will go into such and such a town and spend a year there and trade and make a profit”—yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? For you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead, you ought to say, “If the Lord wills, we will live and do this or that.” James 4:13-15

Father, help all to follow the path of righteousness and watch you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, continuously guide, direct, protect, and position them to win in every aspect of life.

“But thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.”
1 Corinthians 15:57

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.
