FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD!

Father, I give you all the praise for this beautiful morning that was not promised. I thank you for your grace, mercy, and favor.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they also thank you for your grace, mercy, and favor.

They know that it is only by your will and purpose for them that they are present in the body. Therefore, they sing and shout that they are victorious in you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Despite their sins, troubles, sadness, heartaches and pains, with you, and your Son, Jesus Christ, they are able to push through and from a state of depression to a state of peace beyond understanding. Therefore, they commit to worshiping you through their good and bad experiences.

Father, help all to wholeheartedly evaluate themselves to determine whether they are of faith or not of faith. Help them to understand that faith without works is dead.

“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also”. James 2:26

Therefore, my beloved, as you have always obeyed, not only as in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. Philippians 2:12

“He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they can not fathom what God has done from the beginning to the end.” Ecclesiastes 3:11

GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST WILL FIX IT!

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for an opportunity to get it right.

Father, as many have awakened and begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for another day that was not promised.

Father, many are experiencing ups and downs in life, and lately, their downs have overridden their ups in life. They talk about it to friends, family, and anyone who listens to them. However, they fail to come to you through your son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to understand that there is no greater love nor connection with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

Help them to carry all their burdens to you. Help them to realize that no one can fix it permanently, but you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law.
But thanks be to God, he gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”
1 Corinthians 15:55-58

Father, as many others have also awakened, they praise your holy name and give you all the glory for another day that was not promised.

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.” Romans 8:28

JESUS IS THE DOOR ALL MUST ENTER!

Father, I give you all praises for another day that was not promised. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey they sing praises to you for this blessed morning.

Despite their shortcomings you continue to lead them to the straight and narrow path which leads to salvation.

“They understand that Jesus is the Door through which all must enter eternal life. There is no other way because He alone is “the way, the truth and the life” (John 14:6).”

Despite their knowledge, they fall short daily; however, repentance, which is free, delivers them from all sins and makes them whole.

Father, help all to understand that you allow them to choose their destination. They can ignore and be led by falsehoods of the devil, or they can take heed and follow the narrow path that leads to salvation.

“While there will be relatively few who go through the narrow gate compared to the many on the broad road, there will still be multitudes who will follow the Good Shepherd.”

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd and does not own the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it.” John 10:11-12

Father, help all to understand the gifts that you provide to them on a daily basis. Help them to remain steadfast and focused on growing spiritually, secured in God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

“Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ. From Him, the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.”

When they are down, you elevate them to a place of peace, serenity, and genuine happiness.

When they are lonely, you allow your holy spirit to accompany them in all aspects of their lives.

When they are filled with joy, they spread such joy to all whom they come in contact with.

Father, help all to walk in faith in accordance with your holy word and never waver in their efforts to do that which is right. Help them to understand that there will be troubled days as well as days of peace beyond understanding. Therefore, cling closely to your unchanging hands during the ups and downs in life.

“And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.” 1 John 4:14

“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 2:4-6
