Heavenly Father, we want to be among those who have learned to acclaim You, who walk in the light of Your presence, who rejoice in Your name all day long and exult in Your righteousness. We have heard the joyful sound of the gospel and have chosen to obey it, so now we experience its power within our hearts. And now You bring forth good fruit into our lives for which we can grow and bless others as well. We are delighted and thankful through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Heavenly Father, as You call us You also equip us to do that which You lay upon our hearts. May we respond to those in need in whatever capacity we can help. 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 we are called to do. May our motive, in everything we say, do or think be to glorify You as we shine our light, not for our own glory, but always for Your glory and honor while also spotlighting the good news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It is in His name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, we contemplate the deep thoughts of the Psalmist who asked why You bother Yourself to care for all humanity. We are so small in comparison to the great works of the universe which You not only created but also sustain with perfect order, viability and replenishment day by day, year after year. You know the millions of stars in the galaxy by name and yet You are moved by the smallest burden that I bear this day. Your power is evident all about me and within me. I praise You for I am fearfully and wonderfully made by You, the Master Designer. We come to You by the name of Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, I am richly blessed because the Bible tells me that the eyes of the Lord are upon me. I am not left to fend for myself or even to decide which way to go for You instruct me and teach me in the way I should go; You counsel me with Your loving eye on me. To gain Your wisdom I must give You the reigns to my mind and heart so that You will guide my thinking and steer my passion toward that which is honoring to You and is good for me. Then I will be able to rejoice in You and be glad. I will sing and be upright in heart and spirit. In the name of Jesus I pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, You have given us so many beautiful and colorful sites to enjoy as we journey here below. The sunflowers are certainly among the more pleasurable flowers we watch growing each summer, whether they were planted by the birds or by humans. Just as the sunflowers must be nurtured by the rays of the sun, we too must be nurtured by the light of Your Word if we are to grow in maturity and devotion to You. Keep our eyes firmly fixed on You all our days we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, how wonderful it is that nothing is impossible with You. There is nothing You are unable to do except that which is untrue to Your divine nature. You are able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to Your power that is at work within us. To You, Father, be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen. Jesus, You alone have the words of eternal life. Like Simon Peter, we have come to believe and to know that You are the Holy One of God. As believers we are bound for the Promised Land, but we know the way is not for the faint of heart. Some go through the fire, some through the flood, some through the water but, because of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross, we all go through the blood. Help us not to get distracted or be deceived by the devil’s allurement back to the old way of life before we made You the Lord of our lives. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen Heavenly Father, surely Your arm is not too short to save, nor Your ear too dull to hear our prayers. Our iniquities have separated us from You, Father, so we repent of those things that have distanced us from our holy God. May our faith be renewed and our resolve to follow You be firm as we call upon Your name. We desire to walk, not in our own finite wisdom, but in the infinite wisdom of Almighty God whose understanding knows no bounds. May we be found faithful as we call out to You, for we know You always hear us. In the name of Jesus we ask and thank. Amen. Heavenly Father, I am reminded often when brothers and sisters compliment me for these prayers. It could easily cause one to get prideful. This is my heart to yours, although I do pray that it teaches young believers how to pray and to show that there is no need to add fancy words. Also for those that have been saved a long while, to start praying on their own. I pray that each one who reads these prayers is a point in their faith walk with You where we all place our complete trust in You, for You are a faithful, trustworthy, and loving God. As we feed on Your faithfulness and live by Your righteousness we find ourselves delighting in Your presence. We delight in You when we sing praises, when we give ourselves in service to others, and most especially when we commune with You in prayer. May the desires of our heart bring delight to Yours as we conform ourselves to Your will and resist the “grass” that lures us to the other side of the fence, outside of Your safe boundaries. We want to dwell in the land You provide and enjoy safe pasture until we reach our future Promised Land where boundaries will not be required, for danger will not exist in heaven. We eagerly await that precious and glorious promotion! In the name of King Jesus we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, Your warnings regarding the deluge of deceitful tactics from the enemy is evidenced all around us – through the media, books, false prophets and even well-meaning but confused individuals. Your Word is the stabilizing and authoritative doctrinal manual for all that I need for life and godliness. You promise to bring maturity into my Christian walk as I apply Your teaching so that I attain to the fullness of Your Son, Jesus Christ, the Chief Cornerstone. Help me to be wise, studied, and vigilant so that I correctly discern good from bad, truth from error. In Your holy name I pray, Amen. |
