A TRUE RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

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

Father, as many have been blessed to witness another day in Christ, they sing praises to you for your continued grace and mercy. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to guide, protect, renew, and restore.   Despite their adversities, you continue to sustain them through their darkness, oppression, and/or setbacks.

Father, help everyone to understand that nothing in life is promised; therefore, mintain and/or establish a true relationship with you through your Son Jesus Christ. Father, help them to also know that your love is never-ending. Therefore, cling closely to you, through your Son Jesus Christ, for all things and/or situations.

“Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be. So then, those who are in the flesh cannot please God. But you are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God dwells in you. Now if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he is not His. And if Christ is in you, the body is dead because of sin, but the Spirit is life because of righteousness.” 
Romans 8:7-10

GOD’S GREATER PURPOSE

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning, they send praises to you for allowing them to grace this earth another day!  Despite their shortcomings, you continue to provide, forgive, and direct them to the path of righteousness.  When they are sad, you always find a way to turn their nightmares to tranquility; their pain to joy, and their loss of trust to hope.

Father, help all to never give up on life for all things turn out for the good of those who love you through your Son Jesus Christ. Help all to never lean on their own understanding, for you always have a greater purpose for all experiences.

“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

GREATER PURPOSE FOR ALL THINGS

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 fall to their knees in prayer for bringing them through and to another blessed day in Christ. It is only because of your grace that they are able to withstand the wiles of the devil.  Therefore, they continue to draw close to you for direction, guidance, protection, and discernment.

Father, help all to understand that you will never forsake them.  Help them to understand that their experiences in life may seem unfair; however, they must know that you, through your Son Jesus Christ, have a greater purpose for all things. 

“And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.” Romans 8:28

GOD’S HAS ALL CONTROL

Father, give you all praise for this blessed morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love, protection, guidance, restoration, and peace.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they smile because you have granted them another opportunity to get it right.  They smile because they are able to examine themselves and determine where they have fallen short and repent of their sins.  They smile because, despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive and redirect their path as well as their mindset.  

Father, help all to understand that they always have a reason to smile, despite their pain, darkness, and/or difficulties in life.  Help them to understand that with you, they have eternal life.  

Father, help all to also realize that they can always depend upon you through their difficulties, because you control all things, situations, and people.  

“In him we have obtained an inheritance, having been predestined according to the purpose of him who works all things according to the counsel of his will, so that we who were the first to hope in Christ might be to the praise of his glory. In him you also, when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation, and believed in him, were sealed with the  promised Holy Spirit, who is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire possession of it, to the praise of his glory.” 
Ephesians 1:11-14

AN ESTABLISHED RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pray a prayer of thankfulness. You continue to provide them with the greatest gift, the gift of life. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive, provide, protect, restore, renew, and direct their steps to peace, joy, and have the willpower to continue pushing through adversities, obstacles, darkness, and setbacks. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what has occurred, they continue to focus on how you brought them through the turmoil that could have negativity altered their mindset and their ability to mentally move forward in life.

Father, help all to seek you during the good and bad, as well as their successes and failures. Help them to understand that a relationship with you builds them up physically, mentally, and spiritually.

“Anyone who wanders away from this teaching has no relationship with God. But anyone who remains in the teaching of Christ has a relationship with both the Father and the Son.”

CALLING ON JESUS’ NAME

Father, 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 say, “Thank You “! They know that it is only because of your grace and mercy that they are able to witness this day.  Therefore, they continue to surrender all to you. They know they must give all worries to you, for only you are able to direct their steps and set them free.  

Father, help all to never allow their burdens to depict their talk, walk, and/or faith. Help all to always lean on you for understanding, reflection, and confidence. Help all to call on your name, for you will never forsake them.  

“Now, why do you delay? Get up and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on His name.” Acts 22:16

“Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full.” John 13

GOD’S LOVE

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 give you all the praise for allowing them another opportunity to get it right.  They smile because you continue to encamp your angels around them throughout the day and night. Although they try their hardest not to sin, it is inevitable because no one is perfect and all sin and fall short of your glory daily. Therefore, they pray that you keep them on the straight and narrow path to salvation, as they repent and are forgiven of such sins.

Father, help all to understand that no one is perfect.  Help them to understand that was the purpose of allowing your Son, Jesus Christ, to die and be resurrected so that all could have salvation.  

Father, help all to further understand that grace and mercy came as a result of your ultimate sacrifice. Therefore, they must serve you, through Christ, in all that they do.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”  
John 3:16

NEEDED PEACE TO WITHSTAND ALL THINGS

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile despite their pain, heartaches, challenges, health concerns, and/or thoughts. It is only because of you that they are able to push through it all. Therefore, they continue to trust in you despite their obstacles. They pray a prayer of thankfulness, through all experiences, for you are indeed the light in their darkness; the comfort in their state of confusion; the friend when they cannot trust anyone; and their psychologist when their thoughts hinder their freedom and progression in life.

Father, help all to understand that life is full of ups, downs, twists, turns, as well as downfalls. However, with you, they have the needed peace  to overcome it all.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication; with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”  
Philippians 4:5-7

ANEW IN CHRIST

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son Jesus Christ.

They trust that you will continue to direct their path and know, without doubt, that no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Father, help all to understand that the devil comes in many disguises. Therefore, pray for discernment to attest truth from manipulation; spirituality from wickedness, and love from envy. Moreover, help all to trust in you that you will always guide and direct their steps.

“For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago.” Ephesians 2:10
