And let the peace that comes from Christ rule in your hearts. For as members of one body you are called to live in peace.– Colossians 3:15a (NLT
Dearest Abba Father, I humbly come to You today giving You all that I am. I ask for Your peace in the midst of the storm. I ask for Your strength to stand strong, knowing that with You, I will walk through every adversity. Abba Father, thank You for doing a work in me. I choose to align myself with Your plan by blooming where I’m planted. Help me, by Your Spirit, to be an example of Your love and life everywhere I go
Thank You Lord for all that You have given me that enables me to enjoy the pleasures of this life, but help me to realize that lasting and true pleasure is found in serving You as my Lord. Though I don’t deserve Your loving care and forgiveness, Lord, I continually thank You that You give it to me so freely. Help me to accept it graciously, and to know that You hold nothing against me once I ask Your pardon. Thank You for all your Gifts in my life. Your gifts are so wonderful, Lord. Please don’t allow me to take them for granted.. Give me wisdom to honor and bless Your name through my words and actions. Help me to daily fill my mind with Your Word that I may always have a clear understanding of what is right and what is wrong.
Gracious God, I choose to hold my peace. I choose to do the right thing even when the wrong thing is happening. I trust that You are fighting my battles for me. Help me to live for what is important this day, so that I might truly be ready for all the days to come. May my relationships with others honor you and enable us to be maximally fruitful for your kingdom. I give You all the honor and praise. We ask this in the matchless name of Jesus Christ so that He be glorified through us, Amen
I will make you fruitful in your old age. God Promises we will flourish in His courts forever
The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree, He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon. Those who are planted in the house of the Lord Shall flourish in the courts of our God. They shall still bear fruit in old age; They shall be fresh and flourishing. (Psalm 92:12-14)
Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance; it is laying hold of His highest willingness.
