REMAINING STEADFAST IN GOD THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

Father, praise your holy name for allowing me to awaken to witness this beautiful morning.  I’m grateful for your unconditional love.  

Father, as others have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the praise for allowing them a second chance to get it right. Despite their sins, your love remains constant.  Therefore, they pray for forgiveness and the ability to keep their mind stayed upon you as they face challenges, mishaps, set-ups, setbacks, heartaches, pain, and the unknown forces that aim to keep their mind off the path which leads to peace, happiness, obedience, as well as being a positive influence to others.

Father, help all to examine themselves to understand where they fall short in life.  Help them to realize that despite what they read and/or see; nothing should keep their mind from being steadfast on you through your Son Jesus Christ.

“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

GOD’S LOVE

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their daily journey, they sing praises to you for your continued blessings. Despite their sins, you forgive them as they repent and change their ways for the good. They have all confidence in knowing that you, through your Son Jesus Christ, will never forsake them and will always protect, direct, guide, and lead them to peace and serenity.  Therefore, they make you a priority in their lives. They know that they are destitute without you, through Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to know and understand that you, through Jesus Christ, come so that they may live life more abundantly. Therefore, they should always cling to your holy word, understanding that all things are possible with you through your Son Jesus Christ.  

Help all to not be strayed away by the temptations of this world, for they only lead to envy, jealousy, covetousness, and competition instead of peace, love, and true happiness.

“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change” ~James 1:17

WORSHIP AND TRUST GOD DAILY

Father, as many are close to completing their daily work journey, they thank you for another day that was not promised.  Despite their shortcomings, you forgive them for their sins. After true repentance, you guide them to the path that you have orchestrated for them. Because of you through your son, Jesus Christ, they no  longer depend upon themselves.  They have finally learned to put all their trust in you through your son, Jesus Christ. Therefore, when they are challenged, they acknowledge your presence and turn to you for guidance and protection.  When they thought that they had been defeated, you confirmed that they would always be victorious in you through your son, Jesus Christ.

ACKNOWLEDGE PAIN WITHIN

Father, give you all the praise for this blessed and beautiful morning in Christ.  I’m grateful for second chances.

Father, as many have awakened and are beginning their morning journey, they sing and magnify your holy name for your continued blessings.  They know that, because of you, they can push through any and all situations.  When they feel depleted from life’s experiences, you renew their mindset and confirm that you are always present in their time of need. When they thought that they could not endure the pain that continuously resided within, you reminded them that there is a greater purpose for all experiences.

Father, help all to remain steadfast in prayer and supplication during their good and bad experiences.  Help all to understand that keeping pain within is not good for their health or their well-being.  Therefore, cry, scream, rest more, exercise, and talk it out with you, as well as those whom they love and trust.  

“In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.” 1 Peter 1:6-7

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

JESUS CHRIST HOLDS THE KEY TO SALVATION

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their journey, they pause to pray a prayer of thankfulness. It is only by your grace that they have been blessed to overcome the various obstacles that have been impending their walk with and dependence upon you through your Son Jesus Christ.  When you have instructed them to go right, they go left.  When they have experienced the unknown, you allow them peace in the midst of the storm; however, they gravitate to those of the world, whose heart is far from you, instead of establishing a true relationship with you through your Son, Jesus Christ.  

Father, help everyone focus on pleasing you and not entertaining those of the world.  Help them to understand that your Son, Jesus Christ, holds the key to salvation.

“And the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades.” Revelation 1:18

NOT EASILY INFLUENCED

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

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they thank you for the gift of life, for today was not promised. Despite their continued shortcomings, you provide them with an opportunity to repent and renew their walk, mindset, and ultimately redirect them to the path of righteousness. As they take the time to examine themselves and repent of their sins, both known and unknown, they pray that they are not easily influenced by what appease their eyes over the appeasement of their soul.

Father, help all to know that each day they will be challenged to choose right over wrong. Although no one on earth is perfect, and everyone falls short of your glory, help all to focus more on choosing to do that, which is right in your eyes. However, since no one on earth is perfect, help all  learn to wholeheartedly repent of their sins to you through your Son, Jesus Christ.

“Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.” James 1:13

“For sin will have no dominion over you, since you are not under law but under grace.” Romans 6:14

GOD’S OVERARCHING LOVE

Father, give you all the glory for another blessed day in Christ. I am grateful for your holy powers.

Father, as many have pushed through this day, despite their personal challenges, they thank you for your overarching love. They know that despite their shortcomings, you continue to allow your love to overshadow their difficulties and enthusiastically increase their faith in you through your Son Jesus Christ.

Father, help all to understand that you are the reason that they are able to make it through difficulties and broken promises as they journey day to day.  Help them also to understand that you are the answer to all their problems, worries, needs, and wants.  Help them to remain focused on the prize that awaits them, and you will take care of the rest.

“This I recall to my mind, therefore have I hope. It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness. The Lord is my portion, saith my soul; therefore will I hope in him.  The Lord is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
