OPEN YOUR EYES TO WHAT GOD HAS PURPOSED FOR YOU!

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

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

Despite their shortcomings, your love never wavers.  Therefore, they repent of their sins and pray for your divine direction to keep them on the straight and narrow path to righteousness.

Father, help everyone to open their eyes to see what you have purposed for them.  Help them to further understand that you are the answer to all of their needs as well as their wants.  Therefore, cling closely to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, during the good and the bad experiences in life.

“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.” 
Isaiah 54:17

GOD’S BLESSINGS AND FAVOR

Father, I give you all the praise for your continued blessings and favor.  Because of you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, I have life and have it more abundantly. 

“The thief cometh not but to steal and to kill and to destroy. I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” John 10:10

When I am down, you lift me up and allow me to face my challenges and temptations. 

“For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.  He will cover you with his pinions, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.” Psalm 91:3-4

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all things and situations that arise.  Help them to further understand that you have all power and control over all things and situations.

“Keep awake! Watch at all times. The devil is working against you. He is walking around like a hungry lion with his mouth open. He is looking for someone to eat. Stand against him and be strong in your faith.”

“Remember, other Christians over all the world are suffering the same as you are. After you have suffered for a while, God Himself will make you perfect. He will keep you in the right way. He will give you strength. He is the God of all loving-favor and has called you through Christ Jesus to share His shining-greatness forever.”            1 Peter 8-10
