Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Heavenly Father…I am so thankful that I am held safe and secure in Your Almighty hands today and forever. I lift up the praise and worship You are due, proclaiming Your love, might, and power to everyone I meet. And I pray Your kingdom down into every situation I face. You rule and reign! What a load off of my shoulders and heart, that as I trust You, Your peace assures me, and Your presence fills me by the Holy Spirit. May I bring a smile to Your face today as I surrender all my life to You. I am crazy in love with You, Lord, and in the Magnificent Name of Your Son, the Lord Jesus, I pray. Amen!

 Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.
Isaiah 41:10

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…Thank You for leading the way! However, I realize that I must choose to follow. How often have I thought that I know a better path than You? Honestly, what was I thinking? When has that ever worked? Or even more, how much have I missed out on that You had for me? No more. My soul (heart and mind) and my actions follow You alone. Under the covering of Your love, I am surrounded by Your power and presence no matter what situations surround me. So once again, I start this day by surrendering completely to You. Everything. I am so ready and in Your Incomparabnnle Name, King Jesus, I pray. Amen!

 My soul follows close behind You;
Your right hand upholds me.
Psalm 63:8

My battles truly belong to You, and the more quickly I get out of the way, You come through like a lion and turn these skirmishes into vapor. My trust is in You, no matter what any other voice would like to tell me. I am yours and I am ready to face this day. In the Name Above All Names, King Jesus. Amen!

And he said, "Listen… Thus says the LORD to you: 'Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's.
2 Chronicles 20:15

Dear Lord Jesus…It is another new day to live in Your love. As I face the challenges that will come my way – some known and some unknown – I know Your steadfast love will hold me tightly. I cling to Your Word in my life (ask Him for a particular Scripture just for you!), I know that Your Holy Spirit will empower me to see Your strength, direction, and leading. I pray for a special anointing to touch others’ lives with Your goodness today. I am so ready, all because of You! In the Name Beyond Compare, King Jesus. Amen!

He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…Oh, the power of Your presence! I am so sorry that it took me so long to realize that I can think I know all about You, be in fellowship with other believers, and try to do my best, and still not have a deeply intimate walk and relationship with You. Thank you for causing my life circumstances to bring me to a place of brokenness where all I could do was come with the pieces of my life and there be overwhelmed by Your Holy Spirit. Your presence is now my daily reality no matter what I face. How alive Your Word is to me! How I love the healing work You are doing, freeing me from strongholds and addictions. Yes, Lord. I WILL be still before You!

 Be still, and know that I am God…

But joy comes in the morning."

Dear Lord Jesus…Oh, how near You are! Closer than my breath, indeed, dwelling inside of me by the Holy Spirit. I fall hard into Your grace today. Your grace that provides a broad platform for me to stand on and demolishes any guilt or accusations of the enemy. And Your grace who effectively works in my life – again, by the Holy Spirit – to deliver and heal me from the inside out! I pray to be a blessing to at least one person today. Please prompt my heart and mind for those who need prayer, need something material that I can give them, or a prophetic word. I am ready! In Your Glorious Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!

 …that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

Please open my eyes to see those around me as You see them in all their potential, all the great things You have in store for them, and most of all, how much You love them (even when I think they are difficult!). I move forward in this day renewed in Your love for me! In the Majestic Name of Jesus. Amen!

on your altar
and watch for fire to descend.

Dear Lord Jesus...the world may rise and fall, and there are times when my life may rise and fall, but You remain the same. You are my Rock and stand firmly upon Your unshakeable might.

Dear Lord Jesus…I desire that my life be transformed more and more into Your likeness, and I know that one major key to the Holy Spirit’s work in my life, is His work in helping me to forgive others.
