WILL YOU DEDICATE YOUR LIFE TO GOD?

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for the opportunity to worship you in spirit and in truth. 

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they fall to their knees to pray a prayer of thanksgiving to you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for the gift of life and continued blessings. 

They understand that you, through Jesus Christ, are the answer to all their problems, worries, needs, and sicknesses. Therefore, they glorify and praise you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all that you have done and continue to do.

They pray for continued direction, joy, and peace beyond understanding for themselves as well as for all who love you and your Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to remain steadfast in prayer and supplication during the good and bad days. Help all to seek you through your Son, Jesus Christ, first. Moreover, help all to dedicate themselves to you through Jesus Christ and your Holy Spirit. 

“I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.” Romans 12:1

REMAIN STEADFAST

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your unconditional love. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to direct their path, forgive after true repentance, and protect them from all evil and darkness.

Father, help all to depend on you for all things. Help them to understand that you have a greater purpose for them; therefore, don’t give into divers temptations, for they have a Savior who will never forsake them.

FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT 

Father, I praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued guidance.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pray a prayer of thanksgiving and gratitude.  They understand that they were awakened today only because of your grace and mercy. They vow to keep you first and pray that you continue to lead, direct, and keep them as they journey throughout their daily and nightly journey. They pray for forgiveness of their sins and pray for the willpower to withstand temptation and the wiles of the devil. They also pray for the willpower to remain steadfast in your holy word despite their challenges and/or woes in life. 

Father, help all to depend upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all things. Help them understand that with you, they have life and have it more abundantly. Therefore, shake loose the burdens that cause them to walk in darkness with Satan and focus on filling their minds with godliness, obedience, and faithfulness as they walk in the light with you through your Son, Jesus Christ. 

“You, LORD, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light. With your help, I can advance against a troop; with my God, I can scale a wall. As for God, his way is perfect. The LORD’s word is flawless; he shields all who take refuge in him.”
Psalms 18:28–30 NIV

THE STRAIGHT AND NARROW PATH

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for another day that was not promised.  They smile because you have never failed them. When their trials and tribulations were unbearable, you have always been there to carry them through their pain when such burdens made it impossible to move forward in their life.

When their fight to not give up or to give in caused them to experience more attacks, they continued to call on your name to pull them through and to a place of peace and happiness. 

Father, help all to understand that you are indeed the answer to all of their problems. Therefore, draw closer to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Study to show yourself approved, rightly dividing your holy word, as they walk the straight and narrow path that leads to salvation.

“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

Matthew 7:13–14

FOCUSING ON WHAT IS

Father, praise your holy name for another 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 pray a prayer of thankfulness. They understand that it is only by your grace that they have life this morning. Therefore, instead of allowing their circumstances to dictate their mood, they pray for protection, guidance, direction, peace, joy, love, and that your will for them is done. 

Father, help all who are continuously reliving what could have been instead of what is. Help all to know that they should not lean on their own understanding, for you have a purpose for all things and/or experiences. Moreover, help all to cling closely to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, through their good and their bad days.
  
“Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things.”

Philippians 4:8

THE HOLY SPIRIT GUIDES ALL WHO BELIEVE IN JESUS

Father, praise your holy name for this blessed morning in Christ! I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to think about your continued blessings, despite their shortcomings. Instead of allowing them to live in a state of depression due to their actions or inactions, you forgive them after their true repentance. You continue to love, uplift, protect, and guide them through their difficulties and to the path that you have established for them before they were even conceived by their parents.  Your love is never-ending and always abounding.

Father, help all to understand your purpose for them. Help them to realize that they are not here by happenstance because you have established their purpose prior to their conception.

Father, help all to truly look at themselves from within, not how they believe they are seen from the viewpoint of others. Help them to read your holy word and compare their thoughts and actions to it. Moreover, help all to establish a true relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ, so that the Holy Spirit can guide their thoughts and their steps.

“Before Jesus ascended to heaven, He told His disciples that He would send one who would teach and guide all those who believe in Him (Acts 1:5; John 14:26; 16:7). Jesus’ promise was fulfilled less than two weeks later when the Holy Spirit came in power on the believers at Pentecost (Acts 2).”

THE PATH OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

Father, I am giving you all the praise for allowing me to witness another day that was not promised. I’m grateful for your unconditional love.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning routine, they pause to say a prayer of thankfulness. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life. Therefore, instead of complaining about what hasn’t occurred or what did occur, they focus on the blessings that you continue to bestow upon them, despite their good or bad.  

Father, help all to evaluate themselves throughout the day to determine who they are representing, you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, or Satan.

Father, help all to understand that prayer is needed throughout the day to better guide them to the path of righteousness.

“And be found in Him, not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.” Philippians 3:9.

UNDERSTANDING THE DEVIL’S WILES

Father, as many have awakened and are blessed to experience another beautiful day in Christ, they praise you for your grace and mercy. They know that it is only because of your agape love that they are present in the body.

As they settle into their routine, they think about how you continue to bless them despite their shortcomings. You continue to forgive, provide, protect, restore, renew, and direct them to the path of righteousness. They know that there is no other love like yours, through your Son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, they focus on putting you first in their lives.

Father, help all who follow those of the world and allow them to easily influence their walk in life. Help them to understand that there is no other love that can compare to yours, through your Son, Jesus Christ. Moreover, help all to realize that you have already chosen them. Therefore, they should always serve you through your Son, Jesus Christ. Help them to remain steadfast in your holy word to withstand the wiles of the devil.

“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Ephesians 6:10-11
