Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see. Hebrews 11:1 (NLT)
Dearest loving Father in heaven, thank You for a new day to glorify You. Thank You for choosing me and using me for Your purposes. I set my love on You today knowing that You have something new in store for me today. Thank You for Your faithfulness and strength at work in my life today. I choose to consider Your ability over my circumstance. I choose to trust You and give You praise, honor and glory, now and always. Lord, thank You for Your love. Thank You for choosing me and molding me into Your image. Today, I invite You to fill me with Your inexpressible, glorious joy so that I can be a blessing to the people You have placed in my life. I choose to bless You at all times. I choose to set the tone today to receive Your favor, grace and mercy. Thank You for Your faithfulness to me at all times.
Thank You dear Lord that Your Word assures us that You are with us through every trial that we may face today. Help us not to be fearful when a trial comes our way. Give us the courage we need today to stand tall in honoring You in all we do. Protect our family in all of the activities we have and help us to live a life that honors and glorifies Your Son. Lord, speak to me, ignite my heart and then help me shine that light today. Help me share the light that I have with those hurting in utter darkness so they, too, can live in the light of Your love and glory.
Father, thank You for the death and resurrection of Your son Jesus Christ. Thank You for Your forgiveness, mercy and grace. Lord Jesus, I do want to follow you faithfully. I do want to have my life shaped by your vision of the kingdom of God. I do want to take your teachings seriously, even when they unnerve me. Guide me, direct me, work with me, by Your grace to help resolve the sin issues in my life. I do not want to be part of a conspiracy to silence you. Help me, Lord, to hear what you want to say to me. Give me courage to listen when I’m afraid of what your teachings might do in my life. Help me to do what is pleasing in Your sight, and to use the gifts You have given me to spread Your Good News. Lord, thank You for the opportunity to serve You. Help me to be true to You and to serve You with wholehearted devotion and a willing mind. In the Sweet and mighty name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen
God promises that He will take care of your needs if you seek first the kingdom of God.
Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble. Matthew 6:31-34, NKJV.
Prayer will make a man cease from sin, or sin will entice a man to cease from prayer.
