Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope, comfort you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say. II Thessalonians 2:16-17 (NLT)
Dearest loving Father in Heaven, thank You for giving me unspeakable joy in my life. Help me today to hold on to what You have given me and not allow anyone or anything to take it away. Thank You for continually speaking to my heart. Help me to hear You better. Help my spiritual ears to be open and sensitive to Your voice. Father, help me to hear what You are saying today and every day of my life. Thank You for teaching me to hear Your voice. I choose right now to be still and lean into You. I pray that You will make Your voice clear to my heart. Thank You for leading and guiding me as I listen to You. Lord, today I give You every bit of my life, my past, my present, and my future. Thank you for taking every experience in my life and turning it around for my good.
Father of Abraham, grow in me a deep confidence and absolute assurance of You and Your love for me. Help to tackle my unbelief. Increase my faith that I would be a living testimony of your power and faithfulness. So often I react to life with negativity and discouragement. I know that You want me to give thanks in all things but so often I fail. Today, help me Lord to build the habit of praise and thankfulness so my life will glorify You. You care so much for me. Help me I pray. Help me see it, help me know it. Forgive me for not appreciating You enough. You are the Almighty One and You reign on high. I rejoice that I know You and come to You with joy and celebration. You are worthy of all my praise and I give You all the glory.
Almighty Father, it’s not about me. Let it be all about Your glory, Your will and all the healing that is needed in this world. I ask for big and bold goals for Your kingdom. Guide me, Lord, and help me join You in Your mighty works. Give each one of us in our family a heart that loves you, a spirit that serves you and standards that honor you. We thank you for your eternal love and your promise. Thank you for the promise that You will never leave or forsake us. Make all my days productive ones, Lord. Show me what my ministry is. Open doors so that I might serve You in new ways. Look kindly on my efforts to glorify You, Lord. Fill me with Your Holy Spirit. Empower me with the power of Christ to go and love the way You love. I pray that my life would be a living testimony that You have lavished Your love on me by making me Your child. Through the grace of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
You can do all things through Jesus Christ who gives you strength. God Promises He will strengthen us
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. – (Philippians 4:13)
We ought to act with God in the greatest simplicity, speak to Him frankly and plainly, and implore His assistance in our affairs.
