TOTAL DEPENDENCY ON GOD!

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they smile with joy, happiness, and gratefulness in their hearts. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what did not occur, they focus on what did occur because they realize that there is a greater purpose for all things.

Father, help all to depend upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, at all times and during all circumstances.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6

BAPTISM IS ESSENTIAL

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ.

Father, as many have awakened to witness another day, they bow down on their knees to honor and glorify your holy name.

Despite their unintentional as well as intentional sins, you continue to forgive them as they repent and redirect their walk. They understand that life is a gift from you; therefore, they pray that you continue to forgive, provide, protect, and direct them to stay on the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Father, help all to understand that you want the best for them, but they need to want the best for themselves. Help them to confess their sins, repent, and if not already, be baptized for the remission of their sins.

“He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” Mark 16:16

Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God.” John 3:5

“Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.” Romans 6:4
