Blessed is the man who fears the Lord

Blessed is the man who fears the Lord, who delights greatly in His commandments. His descendants will be mighty on earth; The generation of the upright will be blessed. Wealth and riches will be in his house, and his righteousness endures forever. Psalm 112:1-2 Lord, you are gracious, full of compassion, and righteous and I thank you for your promises and your everlasting love. May I delight in your ways and your laws, O God, may my wealth and riches be in blessings upon my family and my generations, and may I bring honor and glory to you each day I am alive, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

In him we were also chosen

In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will. Ephesians 1:11 Praise be to you, my God and Father of my Lord Jesus, who has blessed me in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ, and because you chose me before creation.

God answers me from his holy mountain

But you, LORD, are a shield around me, my glory, the One who lifts my head high. I call out to the LORD, and he answers me from his holy mountain .

Our struggle is not against flesh and blood

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground. Ephesians 6:12-13 Merciful Lord in heaven, it is easy to forget that our struggles come from the dark world and forces greater than we can handle on our own. Help us remember that we can be victorious because the battle is not ours, the battle has been won by your Son, Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Help us put on your full armor to fight against the attacks of the enemy, O Lord, to be ready for anything that comes our way through prayer and faithfulness, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

​All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, but ​the word of the Lord endures forever.1 Peter 1:24-25 Thank you merciful Lord for your amazing love, mercy and daily blessings. Keep reminding me this world is temporary, O God, and everything in it will end, but your living word and promises will endure forever, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones

The hearts of the wise make their mouths prudent and their lips promote instruction. Gracious words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. Proverbs 16:23-24 Almighty God in heaven, I thank you for your patience and love, I thank you for your saving grace and for giving us your word that we may receive wisdom and instruction. Teach me not to stray from the path you have set before me, may my thoughts and words be gracious and kind in your eyes Oh God, may the words of my mouth be to build up and not tear down, may they be sweet to your ears, prudent, wise and humble, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The Lord establishes their steps

In their hearts humans plan their course, but the Lord establishes their steps. Proverbs 16:9 Father, I know that we can make all the plans we want for our lives, but only you can establish our steps, only you decide what our future holds and what is better for us. Thank you for loving us so much, for knowing the desires of our hearts and wanting the best for us, O Lord. Help us to trust in you always, to know that we can plan, but we need to pray and leave everything in your hands and you will do what is best for us according to your perfect will, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen
