PUSHING FOR INCREASED OBEDIENCE AND EXCELLENCY!

Father, I give you all the praise and glorify your holy name through your Son, Jesus Christ, for this blessed morning and New Year. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they also give you all the praise and glorify your holy name through your Son, Jesus Christ.

They understand that it is only by your grace that they have life on this blessed New Year. They know that if they did not have you in their lives, they would not have made it through the darkness that attempts to override their push for obedience and excellence in life. 

Father, help all to remain strong and steadfastly focused on your holy word. Help all to examine themselves daily and focus on increasing positivity while decreasing negativity in their lives. Help them by directing their path and guiding their mindsets to that which expands excellency, obedience, and faithfulness. 

“If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land.” Isaiah 1:19

“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” 
Colossians 3:23-24 

“And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9 

“Respect and obey the Lord!”
Proverbs 9:10 

“But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.” James 1:22-25

UNDERSTANDING BY AND BY

Father, I give praise to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your continued blessings. I’m grateful for your agape love. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their day, they thank you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your blessings. They know that with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper. 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 or transpire, they focus on how, because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, they were able to push through, endure, and overcome all challenges that were intended to impede their walk in life.

Father, help all to open their eyes to what they have endured or will endure to realize that nothing is possible without you, your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit. Help all to remain steadfast and focused on your holy word; apply lessons learned, and they will soon understand it by and by. 

“Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God.”
1 Corinthians 2:12

A DEPENDABLE GOD

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their daily journey, they continue to sing praises to your holy name for another day that was not promised.

Despite the roadblocks that arise, they continue to push forward, knowing that you have the solution to all problems. Despite their wavering minds as to “what if,” “why,” and/or “when,” they remain steadfast in your holy word, knowing that you “did not give them a spirit of fear and timidity, but of power, love, and self-discipline.” 2 Tim 1:7

Father, help all to realize that the only one they can truly rely upon to protect, guide, and direct is you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and your Holy Spirit.

Father, help all to realize that you are the answer to all situations, and despite how it appears, you will not foresake them, for you are a constant and dependable God.

“Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him. Truly, he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, and I will not be shaken.My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock and my refuge.
Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.”
Psalm 62:5-8

CONTINUE TO PRAY AND PRAISE GOD 

Father, give you all the praise for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the opportunity to openly praise your holy name.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to say, “Thank you.” It is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. Despite their downs in life, they continue to push through, knowing that, because of your grace and mercy, they can and will overcome all things.

Father, help all to lean on you for all understandings. Help them to realize that, although you know all things and/or situations, you await their prayers for help. Therefore, always praise and pray to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, during the good and/or the bad.

“Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise! Give thanks to him; bless his name!”

GOD CAUSES ALL THINGS TO COME TO FRUITION

“In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. Ephesians 1:11-12
