REMAIN STEADFAST

Father, give you all the glory, honor, and praise for another blessed morning. 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 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.

“Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.” James 1:12

RELYING ON GOD

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

Father, as many have awakened to witness another day in Christ, they give you all the praise for another day to get it right. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to forgive after true repentance and lead them to a place of peace and serenity. Instead of allowing Satan’s tactics to take them off course, they pray fervently, putting all their faith in you, knowing that no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Father, help all to rely upon you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, for all situations, setbacks, difficulties, and/or struggles within. Help them understand that your love is incomparable to anyone’s on earth. Moreover, help all to understand that you are always abounding, never-ending, and forever loving.

“Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose. Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky. Philippians 2:12-18

THERE IS NO GREATER LOVE

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

Father, as many have awakened and are on their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They shout “hallelujah” because they know that they are always victorious in you through Jesus Christ. Therefore, they continue to evaluate themselves in accordance with your holy word to do what is right.

Although they fall short of your grace and glory daily, you continue to lead, guide, direct or redirect, forgive, love, and protect them from all darkness, hurt, harm, and/or danger.

Father, help all to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, are the key to happiness, forgiveness, salvation, peace, joy, love, and faithfulness.

Father, help all to take the priceless time to evaluate themselves in accordance with your holy word. Help them to understand that there is no greater love, connection, and/or guidance than from you, through your Son, Jesus Christ.

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.” 1 John 4:9–10

FOCUSING ON GOD’S BLESSINGS

Father, thank you for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they first praise your holy name for another opportunity to get it right. Although they fall short of your glory daily, you continue to lead them and ensure that they are victorious in all that they do. Although they have internal scars that sometimes stop them from pushing through adversity, they know that, by your stripes, they are healed. Therefore, instead of dwelling on their trials and tribulations, they push forward by focusing on the fact that you have brought them through it all.

Father, help all to begin to change their thought process from the negativity that they have experienced to the blessings that you have bestowed upon them.

“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight.” Ephesians 1:3-4

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.

GOD WILL SEE YOU THROUGH

Father, praise your holy name for this wonderfully 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 for your unconditional love. They know that, had it not been for your grace and mercy, they would not be present in the body. They know that if it were not for the joy you provided them throughout their darkest days, they would not be able to smile.

Therefore, instead of dwelling on the negatives in life, they push through their adversities, knowing that your Holy Spirit is always present, protecting, directing, comforting, loving, and keeping them.

Father, help all to understand that you are the answer to all disappointments, failures, trials, sickness, strongholds, stress, sadness, heartaches, pain, depression, fear, and/or failures. Therefore, cling closely to you through their good and their bad, knowing that you will see them through all things.

The LORD says, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.”

Psalm 32:8

GOD KNOWS ALL THINGS

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for a second chance.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ, for your unconditional love, peace through their storms, as well as their happiness despite the darkness that tries to dim their light.

Father, thank you for being ever-present in the lives of all who continue to love despite the non-reciprocation of such love from those who oftentimes cause the most havoc in their lives.

Help all to understand that you know the heart of everyone; therefore, always confess their sins, repent, and return to you through their words as well as their deeds.

Father, help all who choose to focus on pleasing those who are conformed to this world. Help all who know to do that which is right, but choose to do whatever it takes to please their flesh. Moreover, help those who know of you but have not formed a relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“The LORD sees everything you do, and he watches where you go. An evil man will be caught in his wicked ways; the ropes of his sins will tie him up. He will die because he does not control himself, and he will be held captive by his foolishness.”
Proverbs 5:21-23

In addition, your plans for them are always greater than they could ever imagine.

Father, help all to understand that you are always present in their life. Help them to understand that life is better with you than without you. Help them to also understand that although trouble may arise, you will never foresake them.

“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they pray a prayer of thankfulness. Because of you, they are able to witness another day that was not promised.

Father, help all to search your holy word daily to ascertain what your will is for them. Help them understand that in life they will have heartaches, headaches, and other illnesses. Help all to cling closely to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings, I will sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.”

GOD KNOWS YOUR HEART, SO STAY CONSTANT

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for the gift of life. Despite their shortcomings, you continue to allow them to withstand the wiles of the devil. Despite their love for all, your love is the only constant in their life. Despite their concern and care for everyone, you are the only one who reciprocates this.

Father, help all who are continuously fulfilling the needs of others; however, such care is never provided or reciprocated.

Moreover, help all who experience the aforementioned to continue to be the people you have ordained them to be. In addition, instead of being angry or hurt, help them to continue to do your will through it all.

“But the Lord said to Samuel, Do not look at his appearance or at the height of his stature, because I have refused him. For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.”
1 Samuel 16:7
