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

WILL YOU TAKE HEED?

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

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they give you all the praise for answered prayers. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to guide them through their storms to a place of peace, serenity, joy, and happiness. Despite their sins, you continuously forgive them, and after their true repentance, you redirect their walk in life and renew their mindset.

Father, help all to take heed to your teachings and align themselves in accordance with your holy word.

“But take diligent heed to do the commandment and the law, which Moses the servant of the Lord charged you, to love the Lord your God, and to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and to cleave unto him, and to serve him with all your heart and with all your soul.”
Joshua 22:5

SOLITUDE IN CHRIST

Father, give you all the praise and glory for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love. 

Father, as many have awakened and begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your never-ending love and continued guidance. 

Without you, they would be desolate and in despair. Their worries would have overtaken them and driven them to greater fear, depression, sadness, a feeling of total unworthiness and incompleteness. Therefore, they pray for a peaceful mindset to keep you first, despite the bad that may accompany the good. 

Father, help all to understand that with you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit, they are made new, and are able to withstand the wiles of the devil, as well as discern the intentions of man and have the ability to discern who is for them and who is against them. 

Father, help all to learn to cling to your unchanging hands, and trust in you during the good as well as the bad. Help them to understand that they have solitude in Christ and that, with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper. 

“Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house, and went off to a solitary place, where He prayed.” Mark 1:35

“Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me; yet not My will, but Yours be done.” Luke 22:39–42

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 IN THE LIGHT 

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for second chances to get it right. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise and glory for your continued blessings. Despite their shortcomings, your love continuously extends above and beyond comprehension. Therefore, instead of continuing to do the same things while expecting different results, they repent of their sins, confess that Jesus Christ is your Son, are buried in the watery grave of baptism, and are raised a new babe in Christ. 

Father, help all to heed your teachings and understand that there is nothing hidden that will not be revealed. Therefore, confess their sins and walk in your light. 

“But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin.”.

Therefore, they trust in you as they continue their journey, knowing that you are always present and always loving.

Father, help all to focus on doing what is right according to your holy word. Help them to read, listen to, and obey your holy word. Moreover, help them to understand that there is no greater love, connection, or peace than from you through your Son, Jesus Christ.
