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

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.

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.
