My grace is sufficient for you

But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me. 2 Corinthians 12:9 Lord God, I praise you for being my loving God and Father, I thank you for being my strength when I am weak, I thank you for reminding me that, you hold all wisdom and power in your hands. Your mercy reaches to the skies, you care for each and everyone of us and you hear our prayers, you pick up all our pieces and mend our broken hearts. Put your loving arms around me and fill me with your everlasting peace, love and strength I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart

As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart. Proverbs 27:19 Merciful Lord, I want to be a reflection of your love and mercy, change my heart and give me a forgiving heart, full of love and compassion, a heart that does not harbor resentment, a humble heart that do not seek it's own way. Help me get rid of any unrighteousness in my heart, O God, get rid of any bitterness, negativity and strife and replace it with your Spirit, full of kindness, humility and patience that I may reflect your beauty in every area of my life, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge

Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance, to understand a proverb and a saying, the words of the wise and their riddles. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge; fools despise wisdom and instruction. Proverbs 1:5-7 Lord God, you never fail us, you are mighty and awesome and I thank you for being my God, for giving us victory in Jesus. Guide me in the right path, give me discernment and knowledge, fill me with your strength and wisdom that my faith will stand firm when the enemy attacks, O Lord, fill me with your peace, joy, and your amazing love, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

​​Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and eve

​​Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever. Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom. Psalm 145:1-3 I will exalt you, my God the King, I give you praise and honor and thank you for your mighty and wonderful works and abundant goodness. You are gracious and compassionate and though I can't ever understand your amazing and everlasting love, I am thankful to have it. May I honor you and praise you in all I do, O Lord, may I walk faithfully and obediently and put all my trust in you always, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

​Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit

​Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of the others. Philippians 2:3-4 Loving Father in heaven, thank you for reminding me that I am your child, that I need to be filled with tenderness and compassion and be blameless and pure in your eyes. Keep me humble and help me be unselfish, open my eyes to see the needs of others, O God. Put the desire in me to help without expecting anything in return and to do everything to glory, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed

I sought the Lord, and he answered me and delivered me from all my fears. Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. Psalm 34 :4-6 Thank you Father God for answering my prayers, for delivering from my fears and filling me with your amazing love and peace. Please continue to walk with me, O Lord, strengthen me and fill me with your Spirit, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns

Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life? Matthew 6:26-27 Father in heaven, blessed be your mighty and holy name, you bring light to the darkness, you give hope, you give life and restore every heart that is broken. Thank you so much for reminding me that I should not worry or be anxious about anything because you are taking care of me. Thank you for being so, so good to me, O Lord, thank you for giving me life, blessings, mercy and your never ending and eternal love. Continue to walk with me, letting me feel your loving arms around me that I may feel your love everyday, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Teach me your ways

Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Psalm 25:4-5 Father God, you are faithful, full of great mercy, love and kindness, and I am thankful to be your child. Show me your ways, O God, guide me in the ways I should go, teach me to be humble and fill me with your Spirit that I may walk in righteousness in your eyes. Help me keep my eyes focused on you, and put my hope and trust in you always, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness

Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. Matthew 6:31-33 Thank you Father God for reminding me that everything is in your loving hands, that you know what I need before I do and you will meet my needs according to your purpose. Help me seek you first with all of my heart and soul, O Lord, and be at peace knowing that you are still sitting on your heavenly throne and in control, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

For we are indeed his offspring

For “‘In him we live and move and have our being’; as even some of your own poets have said, “‘For we are indeed his offspring.’ Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man. The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. Acts 17:28-30 Almighty Redeemer, maker of heaven and earth, I am so thankful to be your offspring, I am thankful that you chose me before I was even born. I give you praise and glory for your mercy and grace, for the gift of eternal life, for the hope of a better future, a life more abundant. Forgive my sins, O God, as I seek you with all my heart and let me feel your presence in my life, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

You know when I sit down and when I rise up

O Lord, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether. Psalm 139:1-4 Lord, You are my God, my refuge, my portion and my strength. You know everything about me, you know my struggles, my fears and my desires, hear my prayers and answer them according to your perfect and Holy will. Let your Spirit lead me each and everyday as I put all my trust in you, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

What shall a man give in return for his soul?

​ For what will it profit a man  if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul ? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul ?  Matthew 16:26 Blessed Lord, you are the Living God, full of compassion and mercy and your eternal reward is priceless. Teach me your ways, O God, help me remember that nothing this world has to offer will give me eternal life, help me follow you with all of my heart and soul and seek your heavenly treasures, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Commit your way to the Lord

Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: he will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Psalm 37:5-6 Father in heaven, thank you for your daily blessings, thank you for your protection and your amazing love. I am thankful that you are in control of everything in our lives and you are full of mercy and compassion. I ask you, O God, to help me commit my ways to you, to wait patiently for your will to be done in my life, to be still and trust in you with all of my heart, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

When they call on me, I will answer

​​The Lord says, “I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in trouble. I will rescue and honor them. Psalm 91:14-15 Blessed Lord in heaven, thank you for your promises, for hearing my call, for your unfailing and unconditional love and for your protection. Please continue to bless me, O God, bless my family and my loved ones everyday. Protect and keep us from harm, keep us under your loving care as we trust in you and learn to be patient waiting for your perfect timing, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The Lord our God we will serve

The Lord our God we will serve, and His voice we will obey! Joshua 24:24 Merciful Father in heaven, let me be still to hear you whispering in my ear, give me a willing heart to hear your words and obey. Teach me, guide me and give me wisdom, O God,help me put all my trust in you and follow you with all of my heart, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

​But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness

​But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:33-34 Thank you Father God for being my refuge, my hope and my strength, for reminding me that you are in control of everything and I should not worry about the future. Help me replace worry with faith, O Lord, to remember to seek your kingdom and righteousness and you will take care of everything else in my life, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
