REBUKING THE EVIL SPIRIT

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 give you praise for your continued blessings. They know that it is only because of your unfailing love that they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, instead of dwelling on what didn’t come to fruition, they focus on the daily blessings that you continue to bestow on them.

In addition, they adorn themselves with your breastplate of righteousness, understanding that you have control over all things, people, and situations.

Father, help all to stop allowing the evil spirit to cause them to question their peace and happiness.

Help them know that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, will forever love, embrace, support, protect, guide, and direct them to a place of peace, happiness, harmony, and serenity.

Help them to also know that anything that is opposite to the aforementioned is not of you or your Son, Jesus Christ.

“And Jesus rebuked the devil, and he departed out of him, and the child was cured from that very hour. Then came the disciples to Jesus apart and said, Why could not we cast him out? And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief, for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.”

Matthew 17:18-20

Father, help all to understand that no one on earth has a heaven or hell to put them in. However, worshipping others or worldly possessions instead of you and your Son, Jesus Christ, leads to a point of no return.

“You alone are the LORD. You made the heavens, even the highest heavens, and all their starry host, the earth and all that is on it, the seas and all that is in them. You give life to everything, and the multitudes of heaven worship you.” Nehemiah 9:6

WE ARE GOD’S WORKMANSHIP

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 fall to their knees in prayer, thanking you for the gift of life—the ability to walk, see, talk, smell, taste, think, and feel. These gifts are what allow us all to function each day, which, unfortunately, many take for granted.

Father, help all to continuously pray for the good of those who love you with all their heart, mind, and soul. Help them to understand that a true relationship, as well as dependency upon you, is necessary to make it through their daily journey.

Therefore, study to show themselves approved: “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance as our way of life.” Ephesians 2:10

Father, help all to understand that your love is like no other. Help them to really think about how you sacrificed your Son, Jesus Christ, for their salvation. In addition, help all to remain steadfast in prayer and supplication without doubt, and they will witness the power of faith.

“For we live by faith, not by sight.” 2 Corinthians 5:7
