The gift of God is eternal life

What benefit did you reap at that time from the things you are now ashamed of? Those things result in death! But now that you have been set free from sin and have become slaves of God, the benefit you reap leads to holiness, and the result is eternal life. For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:21-23 Thank you Father God, for the gift of eternal life, thank you for being so patient with me and for your mercy and grace. Cleanse me from my sins, O Lord, cleanse me from all unrighteousness and set me free, that I may live a life of holiness, a life worthy of your love, and may I follow the path that leads to eternal life at your side, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Maintain justice and do what is right

“Maintain justice and do what is right,  for my salvation is close at hand  and my righteousness will soon be revealed.  Isaiah 56:1 Sovereign Lord in heaven, blessed be your name in all of the earth, thank you for the gift of salvation and your abundant love.  Help me trust in your goodness, righteousness, and power and live to honor and please you, O God,  help me do what is right in your eyes, not the world's, I pray in Jesus' name.  Amen

Fix our eyes on what is unseen

​So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18 Father God, I thank you for reminding me that everything in this earth and what it has to offer is only temporary, but the things of your kingdom and your amazing promises are eternal. Help me fix my eyes on you and your kingdom, O Lord, help me prioritize what really matters at the end and to always live by faith, not by sight, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

​Start children off on the way they should go

​ Start   children off  on the way they should go,  and even when they are old  they will not turn from it.   Proverbs 22:6 Father God, thank you for the hope and encouragement you give us for our children and for your wonderful promises.  Though sometimes situations may seem hopeless, keep reminding me that you will never give up on them.  Help me be an example of your amazing love, and most of all, to lead by example, O Lord,  and help me be faithful in prayer that none of your children will perish, I pray in Jesus' name.  Amen

the righteous will live by his faithfulness.

See, the enemy is puffed up;  his desires are not upright— but the righteous will live by his faithfulness.  Habakkuk 2:4 Mighty God, you are my King and Lord of my life and I want to put all my trust in you and not on myself or others.  Help me not to have a rebellious heart, but to be humble and submissive to your will, O Lord.  May my desires be your desires and may I walk by faith  daily  trusting in your love,  knowing that your angels are always on guard watching over me and my loved ones,  I pray this in the name of your precious Son Jesus,  Amen.

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love

Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. Psalms 143:8 Loving Lord, Creator of all, I am so grateful for your unfailing love and wonderful promises, I surrender my will to you and put all my hope and trust in your loving hands. Show me the way I should go, O Lord, teach me your paths of grace, mercy, integrity and love; guide me in your truth, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 2 Corinthians 5:17 Heavenly Father, I thank you for loving me before creation, I thank you for being my God and my loving Father. I ask that you make me a new creation, that you p urify me from everything that contaminates my body and spirit, O God, mold me and perfect me into your holiness, that I may bring your honor and glory in all I say and do, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
