WHO ARE YOU DEPENDING ON?

Father, thank you for this blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your unconditional love and continued guidance, grace, mercy, and favor.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you through your Son, Jesus Christ. They know that it is only by your grace that they have life and have it more abundantly. They know that they can do nothing without you; therefore, they continue to depend upon you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit for all things.

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.

Moreover, help all to understand that you, through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, are forever and always abounding; therefore, depend upon all daily for all things.

“But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:8
