PUTTING GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST FIRST

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 sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life.

Although they fall short of your glory daily, your love remains unconditional. Despite their sins, they have repented and prayed for you to recondition their minds to turn away from wrongdoings. They know that, despite their shortcomings, you continue to redirect their path. Therefore, they leave all worries and confusion to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to learn to put you first and pray that they are able to connect with your Holy Spirit to guide them to and through their trials, troubles, sadness, obstacles, adversities, and/or difficulties.

“God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you for another blessed morning in Christ. They know that it is only by your grace and mercy that they have life, and they have it more abundantly.

Therefore, serve you wholeheartedly through your Son, Jesus Christ, and always aim to walk in truth and in the light.

1 John 1:5-7

AN ABUNDANT LIFE

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your forgiveness and direction in life.

Father, as many have awakened to witness this beautifully blessed day, they sing praises to you for your continued presence in their lives. They know that had it not been for your agape love, guidance, and peace beyond understanding, they wouldn’t have been able to push through obstacles and challenges. Therefore, instead of dwelling on their imperfections, they are transformed by the renewing of their mind, the love from you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the peace that is derived from having a Savior who answers prayers, provides peace, and always leads them to the path of righteousness.

Father, help all to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, are and will always be present in their lives. Help all to know that you come so that they may have life and have it more abundantly.

SALVATION COMES THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

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 morning journey, they sing praises to you for another day that was not promised. They smile because, despite their shortcomings, your love for them remains constant.

They pray for your continued guidance as they walk the path that you have established for them. They pray for a complete understanding of your divine and holy word so that they can instill it in their hearts and become more of a believer who obeys instead of a hearer who does not obey.

Father, help all to choose you through your Son, Jesus Christ, today and every day afterwards, for you have already chosen them. Help all to also understand that salvation only comes through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“Jesus is “ ‘the stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone. ‘Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”” Acts 4:11-12

IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH

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 think about the blessings you continuously bestow upon them. They realize that if it had not been for your grace and mercy, they would not be present in the body. If it had not been for your agape love, they would not have been able to push through their mental and physical pain. If it had not been for your sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, they would not have the capability to repent of their sins.

Therefore, they worship you in spirit and in truth and praise your holy name. They repent of their sins and pray for discernment, guidance, direction, peace, happiness, and joy.

Father, help all to understand that all blessings come from you and through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help all to worship you daily, in spirit and in truth.

“But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.” John 4:23-24

THE HOLY SPIRIT DIRECTS AND INTERCEDES

Father, I 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 another day that was not promised. They know that it is only by your grace that they are able to continuously push through their challenges.
Instead of giving up or giving in, they pray for your divine intervention, direction, and resolve through all circumstances. They understand that change is necessary for growth, direction, and, most of all, a firm dependence upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to realize that a true relationship with you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, is essential. Help them to begin by studying your holy word to show themselves approved. Help them to then apply knowledge to their hearts and minds, realizing that you come so that all may have life and have it more abundantly.

Moreover, help all to remain firm in faith, knowing that the enemy will attempt to discourage, cause division, doubt, and confusion. However, your Holy Spirit will always guide, direct, and intercede on their behalf.

“Likewise, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.” Romans 8:26-27

GOD IS LOVE

They smile because you have allowed them another opportunity to make a difference, correct their wrongs, and walk in accordance with your holy word.

They smile because they know that it is only because of you that they are present in the body, and they are allowed to choose righteousness as they take heed to your teachings and ultimately better define their walk and purpose in life.

Father, help all to understand that there will be troubles, trials, tribulations, setbacks, heartaches, as well as temptations; however, when they are truly connected with you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, they will find strength, beyond comprehension, to push through all obstacles and adversities to gain the purest form of peace, serenity, joy, and love.

“We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.”

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile because you continue to embrace, support, trust, and see them as worthy, despite their sins.

They know that your love wipes away their heartaches, challenges, and pains, as well as their fears. Because of your love, they are able to continuously push for excellence, even when they are at their lowest point in life. Because of your faithfulness, they are able to withstand the wiles of the devil and push through their adversities, roadblocks, and setups, as well as setbacks.

Father, help all to open their eyes to see that there is no greater love than yours through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to understand that today is the day to evaluate themselves wholeheartedly in accordance with your holy word and take heed to it before there is no tomorrow.

“Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him.” John 3:36

“The Holy Spirit is the mark of our salvation, guaranteeing God’s promise of eternal life with Him.” Ephesians 1:13

“For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul, or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?” Matthew 16:26

GOD’S OVERFLOWING LOVE

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

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their #SONday, they pause to give you all the praise. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life, and they have it more abundantly. Despite their shortcomings, you have never forsaken them. Therefore, they cling closely to you, knowing that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Father, help all to understand that because of the sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ, we have been covered by his blood. His love is never-ending, pure, flawless, and constantly abounding. Therefore, instead of focusing on the things in this world, focus on the overflowing love that God, through his Son, Jesus Christ, has for his children.

“And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.” Romans 5:5

ONE IN CHRIST JESUS

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your ultimate sacrifice of your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their daily journey, they first say a prayer of thankfulness for providing them another opportunity to change their ways and commit to serving you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

They know that had it not been for you, they would not have become the person that you had orchestrated them to become. Through life’s most difficult experiences, you have never failed them. Despite what others may perceive as failing them, many understand that you know all things and have established a day and time for everyone to be born and for their demise.

Father, help everyone to understand that time does not wait for one to get their lives together. Therefore, repent and confess that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and be spiritually born again in the grave water of baptism for the remission of sin and to become one with Christ.

“For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” Galatians 3:27-28
