Heavenly Father, I look back at the people that You led out of Egypt from bondage. I see what life was like through the book of Kings. I look at what and how Jesus taught while He walked on earth. After more then two century's, most still don't get it. Lord, we are a foolish, unruly, and rebellious people who need Your tender guidance and enduring patience as we navigate our way through our journey here below. You teach us what is good and nourishes our soul and that which is destructive, bringing us down and others along with us. We invite the work of Your Holy Spirit to cleanse our soul and create a hunger that gives us spiritual cravings for more of You and Your holy Word. We praise You Jesus and in Your name we ask and pray. Amen.

Heavenly Father, It took me a while, but I thank You for your patience and teaching me to find pleasure and fulfillment in my work when I work at it heartily, as for You, primarily. Lord, I thank You for giving me the wherewithal to provide an income for my family where all my financial needs are met. Certainly each workplace has its challenges, but as we look to You for strength, endurance and wisdom to deal with those challenges we find joy, thanksgiving, and fulfillment in our work. May others see heaven sent joy flow from our lives as we spread mutual respect and a strong work ethic in the workplace. Lord, give us the boldness to praise You, even at the work place, school, stores, or wherever we may be. Let us not be ashamed of You and Your Word amongst others. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
Heavenly Father, part of this Psalm and verse of this song echos in my mind this morning. "Your love, oh Lord Reaches to the heavens And Your faithfulness Stretches to the skies And Your righteousness Is like the mighty mountains Your justice flows Like the ocean's tide" Praise Jesus! Lord, you rain showers of blessings on us daily. They’re so bountiful and normal to our daily lives and often they go by unnoticed by the vast majority. But when nature goes off course and there is flooding, drought, earthquakes, or other disasters we recognize that we are totally reliant on Your mercies and goodness. We thank You for providing for our needs and hearing the cries of Your people when we call upon You for help. Teach us Your ways in answered and unanswered prayer. Jesus we ask and pray this in Your Holy and perfect name. Amen.
Heavenly Father, I glorify Your name. Because of Jesus, I am saved. He is my refuge and strong tower. Only by embracing Him and Him only, receiving His doctrine, is there salvation for any. Lord, we cannot remain neutral but must stand for that which is good or we will fall for that which is evil. Help us, as believers, to cling to that which is good even when it comes at great sacrifice. With the aid of Your Holy Spirit, we will be keenly discerning of the spirits of this age. We look to You alone, for “There is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved.” In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen.
Heavenly Father, You are good and Your mercy is is everlasting and Your truth endures to all generations. We praise You our Lord and King. Lord, as You call us, You also equip us to do that which You lay upon our hearts. May we we be sensitive to the Holy Spirit to hear and quickly to respond to those in need in whatever capacity we can help. Lord, certainly we can pray, we may need to write or call, and then there are the times we are to go and accomplish that which is within our ability to do. Our little becomes much when we place it in the Master’s hand, so we offer ourselves to You today. Praise Jesus and in His name we pray. Amen.
Heavenly Father, after watching and approving a video of a cartoon on David and Goliath yesterday, the scene keeps playing over and over in my head. Through that scripture Lord, You tell Samuel, You look at the heart and not the appearance of a man. Father, our hearts are warmed and encouraged when we remember that our labor for You is never in vain. You see our hearts and equip us to carry out the mission of helping Your people. We don’t want to look to others for affirmation since that could lead us to vacillate in our calling. Instead You bless us as we are faithful to You and remain steadfast in our commitment to help others. May we not rely on just the immediate results, but rather recognize that You are storing up treasures from our work here on earth, many that will only be revealed in heaven. In Jesus name. Amen.
Heavenly Father, You have a perfect plan for each of our lives. Lord there are times that it seems like the walls might be crashing in around us, but You Lord, still have a perfect plan if we look and trust is You. King Jesus, our hearts are warmed and encouraged when we remember that our labor for You is never in vain. You see our hearts and equip us to carry out the mission of helping Your people. We don’t want to look to others for affirmation since that could lead us to vacillate in our calling. Instead You bless us as we are faithful to You and remain steadfast in our commitment to help others. May we not rely on just the immediate results, but rather recognize that You are storing up treasures from our work here on earth, many that will only be revealed in heaven. I the name of Jesus I thank and pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, we praise Your name. Lord, as we go our journey with You, we learn new things everyday. It seems many are unaware of some of the things we should not do. Lord, we’re told to do everything without complaining, so that we shine like stars in the universe. We know that people are drawn to light where brightness is present and warmth is extended. Help our conversation to be full of grace, tenderness, light, and truth so that we will positively affect those around us. May we be as a sweet aroma to You and those whom we meet on our life’s journey. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, let our faith not be wavering. Lord, be with us in our choices and help us to always search You for the answers. Lord God, we regularly come to You asking for peace regarding situations that we don’t understand or have no personal ability to change. Way too often troubling circumstances capture our emotions and rob us of the peace promised to those who place their trust in You. Help us not to be tossed about by the changing circumstances of our lives, but to be steadfast as we discipline our mind to be fixed upon You. Only then will we know true life sustaining peace while sojourning here below. We praise You Jesus and in Your name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, You as our Creator know everything about our lives. You know everything we need. Lord, even as water is essential for physical life, You’ve created within us a thirst for holiness and righteousness to sustain our spiritual life. So often we attempt to quench that inborn thirst with temporary substitutes that give us a quick high and then we inevitably face recurring dissatisfaction. No person, position, or possession can effectively replace our divine appointment with You, the Living God, who desires to have fellowship with Your creation. We invite Your supernatural presence to be fully manifested in our lives as we call out to You night and day, in times of refreshing and in times of drought. Be glorified in me, Living God! Thank You Jesus and in Your name I ask and pray. Amen. |
