Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways

Let your eyes look straight ahead; fix your gaze directly before you. Give careful thought to the paths for your feet and be steadfast in all your ways. Do not turn to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil. Proverbs 4:25-27 Almighty God, help me keep my eyes focused on you, guide my footsteps each day. Purify my heart and grant me your divine wisdom as you lead me through the way I should go. Keep my feet from evil and fill me with your loving kindness, goodness and mercy that I may be a blessing to others, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Since you are his child, God has made you also an heir.

God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, the Spirit who calls out, “Abba, Father.” So you are no longer a slave, but God’s child; and since you are his child, God has made you also an heir. Galatians 4:6-7 Father God, I thank you for making me your child, for making me an heir to your kingdom, to receive your blessings and your goodness. You have chosen me and adopted me with all my imperfections and I am thankful and grateful to you. Pour your Holy Spirit on me, O Lord, remind me not be a slave to sin or fear, but remind me that nothing on earth is worth loosing my salvation and my eternal inheritance, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Be strong and courageous.

"Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the Lord your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6   Lord God, maker of heaven and earth, you are my God and my Father, and I am so thankful for your promises.Keep reminding me not to fear, but to trust in you, to seek you with all of my heart in all I do.Help me be the child you called me to be, help me be strong and courageous and remember you walk beside me and will never leave me or forsake me, I pray in Jesus' precious name, I pray.Amen

The LORD is gracious and compassionate

The LORD is gracious and compassionate,slow to anger and rich in love. The LORD is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.  Psalm 145:8-9 Mighty and loving Father in heaven, your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and your dominion endures through all generations. I thank you for being compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love, O God, I ask that you change my heart and help me be the person you meant for me to be. May my actions speak louder than my words, may I be compassionate and loving to others as you are to me, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.

Sympathize with each other

Finally, all of you should be of one mind. Sympathize with each other. Love each other as brothers and sisters. Be tenderhearted, and keep a humble attitude. Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will bless you for it.  1 Peter 3:8-17 Merciful and forgiving Lord, I humbly come to your throne of grace asking you to forgive me for all my sins, I ask that your Holy Spirit fills my heart, O God, that you give me a gentle, humble heart and help me to turn away from what is unrighteous in your eyes and be forgiving, kind and loving as you are and be a blessing to others, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

I ask that you fill our hearts and our homes with love, peace and with prosperity. Bless my family and friends, O God, fill us with your love, wisdom and strength, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty

Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Psalm 91:1-2 Almighty and merciful God,  we all have felt the pain of living in a fallen world, we have lost loved ones, have suffered diseases, have hurt deeply for many different reasons, but we are so thankful to know that we can dwell in your shelter and rest in your shadow. Keep reminding us that you are our refuge and our fortress, O Lord, that only you can give us the peace and rest we need and that you are still in control of this world, I pray in Jesus name. Amen

The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save

The Lord your God in your midst, the Mighty One, will save; He will rejoice over you with gladness, He will quiet you with His love, He will rejoice over you with singing. Zephaniah 3:17 Glorious and Mighty God in heaven, you are mighty to save, your hand is over everything and your compassion for us is everlasting. Quiet my soul, my anxieties, my worries and my fears, O Lord, embrace me with your merciful and loving arms and let your Spirit live in me and fill my heart with joyful songs, I pray in Jesus' name.Amen

Fear the Lord your God and serve him

Fear the Lord your God and serve him. Hold fast to him and take your oaths in his name. He is the one you praise; he is your God. Deuteronomy 10:20-21 Faithful and loving Lord in heaven, you are Lord of all Lords and you have called us to worship you and serve you, you equip us for the work you have planned for us; please give us discerning and obedient hearts as we seek your will for us. Help us surrender our lives to you, O God, that we may enjoy the fullness of your amazing love and abundant blessings, use us to be a blessing to others, use us for your kingdom, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth

Let your heart retain my words; Keep my commands, and live. Get wisdom! Get understanding! Do not forget, nor turn away from the words of my mouth. Proverbs 4:4-5 Father God, thank you for your Word and your instruction, you give knowledge and understanding to those who walk uprightly; you guard their paths and preserves their way. Direct my steps, O Lord, let my ear be inclined to hear your voice, and correct me when I have gone astray. May I walk in the path of righteousness and be a mirror of your love in everything I say and do, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

This is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.

For everyone who has been born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. Who is it that overcomes the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God? 1 John 5:4-5 Almighty God, you are the true God and eternal life, you are the great defender of my heart, you have saved me and given me victory to overcome the world through your Son, Jesus. Guide my way, O Lord, keep watch over me day and night and as I trust in you, remind me to stay still and wait for your perfect timing, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
