A MINDSET FOCUSED ON GOD

Father, give you all the praise for another blessed morning that was not promised.  I’m grateful for the gift of life.  

Father, as many have awakened, by your grace, they praise your holy name, through your Son Jesus Christ, for another blessed day.  They know that all things are possible with you, through your Son Jesus Christ. Therefore, they push through obstacles, pray through adversities, and hope through darkness.  They understand that their life is made by the circumstances that arise throughout their lives. Therefore, they make serving you their priority, and whether they experience good or bad, they give you all the praise and glorify your holy name daily.  

Father, help all to remain strong in their faith, knowing that a mindset focused on you will always result in true happiness, despite their experiences.  

“Are you distracted, alone, or afraid? This message empowers us to focus on Jesus and trust him to get us through any storm.” Matthew 14:22-33

RIGHTING WRONGS

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed day in Christ. I’m grateful for the ability to right my wrongs.  

Father, as many have been blessed to make it through another day, they give you all the glory for your continued grace and mercy.  Despite their shortcomings, you continue to lift them from darkness to your light. Despite the depletion of their drive, you continue to push them to excellence.  As a result, they know that all things are possible with you, through your son, Jesus Christ.  

Father, help all to understand that, despite their challenges in life, you are always in their midst, awaiting to hear them call upon your holy name.

Father, help all to understand that no one is perfect. However, because of your ultimate sacrifice, your Son, Jesus Christ, they are able to repent, confess, and be baptized in the watery grave of baptism, for the ultimate goal is salvation.  

“Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; steadfast love and faithfulness go before you.” Psalm 89:14

KEEPING FAITH IN GOD

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

Father, as many have journeyed through another work day, they give thanks to you for the good and the bad.  They understand that from both, learned lessons are derived.  Although some things appear to be never-ending, they push through, knowing that in due time, their experiences will help to reveal the direction they should take in life, knowing that all things work out for the good of those who love you and illustrates such through their words and deeds.  

Father, help all to understand that, despite how things feel or appear, they must keep their faith strong in the power of God through his Son, Jesus Christ!

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and he will make your path straight.” The Good News: If you put your complete trust in the Lord, you will be rewarded. He will set your life straight and lead you down the right path.’ Proverbs 3:5-6

KEEP YOUR MIND FOCUSED ON GOD

Father, give you all glory for another day in Christ.  I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have made it through another day, in Christ, they give you all the glory for your continued protection, guidance, and direction. Whenever they were in need, U showed up on time to help them along the way. Whenever they were alone, you comforted them and reminded them that you would always be in their midst, despite how things appeared.  

Father, help all to realize that you are the answer to all of their needs, wants, and/or problems. Help them to learn to keep their minds focused on you while trusting that you will never forsake them. Moreover, help them to understand that there is no greater love than your love.

“All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” 2 Timothy 3:16-17

GOD’S LIGHT

IN UNISON WITH GOD

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I am grateful for your unconditional love and protection.  

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they sing praises to you for allowing them another opportunity to praise your holy name.  They understand that it is only by your grace that they have been given the opportunity to turn their wrongs into rights; sadness to happiness; and shortcomings to strengths.   Therefore, they give all their heart to you, through your son, Jesus Christ.  They trust in you for direction because they know that you have never failed them and they would be lost without you.

Father, help all to understand that trials will come and go, and despite Satan’s tactics to bring fear, confusion, sadness, strife, and other trials to or within their life, they are stronger with you. Help all to rebuke the devil, plead the blood of Jesus over all situations, and continue to walk in unison with what you have purposed for them, for no weapons formed against them will prosper.

GOD’S CONTINUED GUIDANCE

Father, praising Ur holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. Grateful for the gift of life.  

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their daily journey, they sing praises to U for Ur continued grace and mercy. Despite not being worthy of Ur grace; U continue to show up and show out.  U have provided them with the fortitude to rise from their lowest point in life.  U forgave them when they struggled with letting go of their bad habits. U encouraged them to maintain their character when others treated them inhumane.  U allowed them to stay the course and reap the lessons learned, resulting in a stronger dependence on U through Ur Son, Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to understand that U are always present; therefore, maintain a mindset that allows U to continue to guide them throughout their daily journey.  Help them to understand that they must form a dependence on U through Ur Son Jesus Christ.

“And the Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your desire in scorched places and make your bones strong; and you shall be like a watered garden, like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail.” Isaiah 58:11

GOD’S FORTITUDE

Father, praising Ur holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. Grateful for the gift of life.

Father, as many have begun another blessed morning that was not promised, they sing praises to U, despite their circumstances.  They know that all things are possible with U; therefore, they openly praise Ur holy name.  When they were down and out, U lifted them higher than the highest mountains.  When they faulted themselves for mishaps beyond their control, U provided them with peace and solitude.  When they believed that their second chances had ended, U allowed them the fortitude to rise and represent U in all that they do and think.

Father, help all to understand that U are the answer to all problems, darkness, disappointments, failures, setbacks, and heartbreaks.  Help them to understand that U have all the power and authority over all situations.  Therefore, they freely give their burdens to U, for U indeed are Almighty, Alpha and Omega, and continuously protect them with Ur armor and shield, adorn them with  the breastplate of righteousness, and allow all of their darkness to turn to light.  

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” Isaiah 41:10

WHERE DO YOU STAND SPIRITUALLY?

Father, praising Ur holy name for another blessed morning in Christ Grateful for another opportunity to hear Ur holy word!

Father, as many have awakened to another day that was not promised, they sing praises to U for another opportunity to worship U in spirit and in truth. They know that there have been numerous times that they have succumbed to what pleased their flesh instead of their spirit; therefore, they cling closely to U to maintain their desire to stay on the path of righteousness.  They understand that life’s journey may result in them being continuously pulled into worldliness and pleasing the flesh; however, they remain positive and focused on the path that leads to the straight and narrow.  

Father, help all to honestly evaluate themselves to understand their relationship with U, through Ur Son Jesus Christ. Help them to know that their focus should never be on what man thinks about them, but it should be based on what U, through Ur Son Jesus Christ, know about them. 

“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” 1 Corinthians 15:58
