Heavenly Father, I praise You this morning for all You have done in my life and for the teachings you have given me to teach. I consider it an honor to share Your Word, but as a representative, I must talk the talk and walk the walk of what I preach, and You constantly remind me. Praise Jesus. Lord, there is no sin too great that Your mercy is not greater. We were born with a sin problem, but You provided the solution for our sin sick souls through the wondrous sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus Christ. We could never be good enough, rich enough, famous enough – nothing we offer is enough. Anything we have to give is sin-based because of our human condition and all that Christ offers is sin-less because He is the Lamb without blemish. Only Jesus, the sinless Lamb of God, is enough to pay for our sins. His payment made in full makes us a new creation, taking away our old attitudes and behaviours born of this world and replaces them with the new attitudes and behaviors born of the Spirit. Thank You for the living water that quenches our eternal thirst through Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

Heavenly Father, I thank You for always being right here. I thank You for that still small voice that when we are quiet enough, we can hear. I praise You for You never failing love.Father God, we ask You to not only open our eyes to that which is around us, but we ask You to open the eyes of our hearts so that we might envision that which is true and that which is false on a spiritual level. When we hide Your Word in our hearts we more quickly discern that which masquerades as good, but its source is from one of Satan’s servants “masquerading as a servant of righteousness.” Because Your Spirit reigns in our hearts and knowledge from Scripture fills our minds, we affirm that which is Scriptural and reject that which is heresy. May we ever be vigilant in attaining Scriptural knowledge and fervent in prayer as we encounter the gods of this age. In the matchless and true name of Jesus we pray, Amen. Heavenly Father, I stand in awe, listening to the birds this morning and the beautiful sunrise, before the clouds came. Your creation always amazes me and to think You created it by speaking words in faith. Your love also amazes me and I am so thankful that You called me to be saved. Lord, it is by grace that we are saved, not of works lest we boast of the power we have to save ourselves. Instead we boast only in the privilege of knowing You and the power of Your resurrection. You exercise lovingkindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth and Your grace knows no bounds. We are grateful recipients of Your boundless grace and merciful kindness. May it spur us on to exercise mercy and grace to those around us. Father God, help us to share Your love into our communities, so that the whole world will know that we are Yours. In the gracious name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, Thank You for Your Word. We read in John 15: about God being the master Gardner. Then Jesus said, "I am the true vine, and My Father takes care of the vineyard. He removes every one of my branches that doesn't produce fruit. He also prunes every branch that does produce fruit to make it produce more fruit. "You are already clean because of what I have told you. Live in Me, and I will live in you. A branch cannot produce any fruit by itself. It has to stay attached to the vine. In the same way, you cannot produce fruit unless you live in Me. "I am the vine. You are the branches. Those who live in Me while I live in them will produce a lot of fruit. But you can't produce anything without Me. Lord, I want my heart to be committed to Your Truth and righteousness, for You are the Way, the Truth and the Life. I place my complete trust in You and reject the godless trends and vain philosophies promoted by the world regardless of how popular they may be, what celebrity or famous person promotes them or how they may be validated by the wisdom of this world. Like our Lord Jesus stated, “Thy Word is truth.” May Your words be embedded in my heart and mind through the faithful study of Scripture so that I might not sin against You and so that I will recognize truth from error. Keep me faithful and true. In the precious name of Jesus I ask and pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus, my Lord and my Savoir. It is because of Jesus; His loving compassion toward us evident in His incarnation, His ministry, His death and resurrection, that we willingly and joyfully bow on our knees and confess with our tongue that Jesus Christ is Lord. We deny ourselves the world and all that it offers to make Jesus our Lord. For some of us it is a commitment without a great deal of fallout but for others it can ostracize them from their family, their village, or even cost them their lives. Whether in life or death we want to be among those who bear witness of the truth, and are willing to suffer death in the cause of Christ (Acts 22:20; Rev. 2:13; 17:6). We pray for our brothers and sisters in Syria and in all others regions of this world who are undergoing persecution, many of them fleeing for their lives and others laying down their lives for the cause of Christ. How consoling to know that this is not the end but they have received the victor’s crown of eternal life where there will be no more hardship, no persecution, nor a trace of sin. Keep us faithful no matter what, in the name precious name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, I come to You thankful for all the things You have done in my life. I thank You for delivering me from all bondage. I thank You for taking all my sins and washing me whiter than snow. Lord, in this world there are many things that can distract us from your voice. Things that can easily pull us from what You want us to do. Father, help me to be quick to recognize and respond to Your promptings. Often You speak to me through Scripture, daily prayer, and other believers. You also speak to me through the undesirable consequences that come from acts of disobedience. May I see Your cautions and “stops” as part of Your loving way of keeping me from danger and redirecting me to that which will be of blessing in my life and to those around me. I ask this and thank in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me and showing me how to love. We know Your love because You first loved us. You gave Your one and only Son to die for our sins so that we would not perish but spend eternity in heaven with You. Lord, as our roots grow down into Your love we gain strength, understanding, and maturity. Though we cannot grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, we can respond in love to You. Just as we rely on the love You have for us, may You find our love consistent and reliable. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, when I spend time in Your Word each day, I learn about You. I learn about myself. I learn how to overcome situations. I thank You Lord that no matter what I'm going through, I am reminded of scripture. Lord I ask You to help me share Your Word with the world. Lord, I am grateful for the supernatural work You perform in our lives. Help us to follow Your leading in the small day to day promptings we receive from Your Spirit as we go about our activities. The way You cared for Moses is a great reminder that we are never without hope and our circumstances are never too grave when we walk in Your ways and trust You for that which concerns us. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, thank You for loving me and pulling me from a life of self destruction I once lived. Lord, as I learn more about You, I find promises that I put my full trust in. As we confess our sins we thank You that You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. Lord, I pray that You put other believers in my life to help me on my new journey with You. Father God, help us to be honest enough to admit our sin. Lord, we ask for Your cleansing, and invite the Holy Spirit to help us courageously deal with personal consequences from our sinful defiance. You are a gracious Father who does not cast us down in our failures, but You uphold us with Your gracious and loving hand. Thank You Jesus for creating me into a new creation. Thank You that the old person I was is gone and now I have a chance to serve You and become the very person you intended me to be. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, I am nothing without You. Lord, There are so many that think they can buy their way to Heaven, or earn it, by doing good things. Your Word, the Bible, tells us differently. Lord, there is nothing we can do in our own power or charm to receive Your favor, but we do receive Your forgiveness as we believe on Jesus and the wondrous work of His redemption through death on a cross. Then we are no longer orphans but are adopted into the family of believers who call You Father. And the amazing blessing is that You call us Your children. We receive You as our Father, our Savior, and our blessed eternal King. In Jesus name I ask and pray. Amen. |
