Blessed are the peacemakers

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Matthew 5:6-9 Father God, give me hunger for your precious Word and thirst for your righteousness, fill me with your blessed Spirit and purify my heart.. Help me be peacemaker in troubled times, loving and merciful, O Lord, walking in the footsteps of my Savior, that I may be worthy of being called your child, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

The Lord saves me.

As for me, I call to God, and the Lord saves me. Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress,and he hears my voice.  He rescues me unharmed from the battle waged against me.  Psalm 55:16-18 Blessed Lord in heaven, I thank you for hearing my prayers, I thank you for being so merciful to me and for saving me from my troubles. I humbly come to your throne of grace to ask that you will continue to watch over me, to watch over my loved ones who are in distress, who are hurting and who need you as much as I do, O God. May your loving hand be upon us today and every day, may you heal our wounds and broken hearts and may your angels watch over us as we put all our trust in you, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Unfailing love

Your unfailing love, O Lord, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, your justice like the ocean depths. You care for people and animals alike, O Lord. How precious is your unfailing love, O God! Psalm 36:5-7 Father God, I will never be able to comprehend how merciful your love for us is, it never fails and it never runs out, you loved us before we even knew you and you care for everything and everyone you created. How precious indeed is your unfailing, unconditional love, O God, draw me close to you with loving kindness and pour out your unfailing love on me each morning you have blessed me with a new day of life, that I may bring you honor and glory, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Been born again

Now that you have obeyed the truth and have purified your souls to love your brothers sincerely, you must love one another intensely and with a pure heart. For you have been born again, not by a seed that perishes but by one that cannot perish—by the living and everlasting word of God. 1 Peter 1:22-23 Gracious and loving Father, thank you for making me your child, for allowing me to be born again, to be born of your Spirit and love. Help me love intensely and with a pure heart, help me remember that your word lasts forever and that your love and promises are everlasting. May I stay obedient to your will for my life, O God, may I bring you glory and honor in all I do, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen.

And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus. To our God and Father be glory forever and ever.  Amen. Philippians 4:19 Merciful Lord in heaven, blessed be your name in all the earth, I thank you for being my provider, for supplying all of my needs according to the riches of your glory. I know I don't deserve anything, O God, but I am thankful for your unconditional love and mercy.May my faith continue to grow as I see your mighty hand in my life, I pray in Jesus, my Savior's name, Amen

Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise

Give to the Lord the glory he deserves! Bring your offering and come into his courts.Worship the Lord in all his holy splendor. Let all the earth tremble before him. Tell all the nations, “The Lord reigns!” The world stands firm and cannot be shaken. He will judge all peoples fairly. Let the heavens be glad, and the earth rejoice! Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise! Psalm 96:8-11 Loving Father in heaven, creator of heaven and earth and everything in it, I praise you for being my God, my King and my Savior, I want to give you glory and honor and thank you for everything you have done for me and everything you have given me. May I feel your tender love and mercy every day, O God, and may I be reminded of your Majesty and splendor in everything you have created, I pray in Jesus' name. Amen

Mark out a straight path for your feet

Look straight ahead,  and fix your eyes on what lies before you.  Mark out a straight path for your feet;  stay on the safe path.  Proverbs 4:25-26 Father God, mark a straight path for my feet and help me keep focused on the path you have set before me  and stop looking back at my failures or the wrong choices I have made.  Keep reminding me, O Lord, that you are in control of everything and as long as I walk in your ways,  everything will work out according to your perfect will, I pray in Jesus' name .  Amen
