Psalm 66:8

Oh, bless our God, you peoples! And make the voice of His praise to be heard.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Hear my joyful shout to You Lord, my God.  I will sing out the honor of Your name. May I come making glorious praises to the wise King. Father please hear me, oh how awesome are Your works! Through the greatness of Your power Your enemies submit to You. May all the earth worship and adore You Lord Jesus. May all sing praise to Your name. Father may I call to those around me to come and see the works of my God. Bless You Lord for You have turned the sea to dry land. Bless You Lord for You have crowned the year with Your goodness. Your paths drip with abundance. I'm blessed for I have been chosen by You, that I may dwell in Your courts. Bless You Lord for You satisfy me with the goodness of Your house, Your Holy temple. You Lord Jesus are my salvation. Bless are You Jesus, You are the confidence of all the ends of the earth. Thank You Lord for every good and perfect gift You have blessed me with. Your loving kindness even in the smallest detail. Oh how great You are God!  I pray Lord for all to know the truth of Your mercy and grace that endures forever. I love You Jesus. I have so much to be grateful for, so may all  glory, honor and praise be Yours. May it pour forth from my small and thankful heart. In Your name, Amen

Romans 14:19

Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.

Oh Heavenly Father my cups runs over with joy after spending time today at a sweet and simple house in the middle of a impoverished city. Ah but Lord You are there working in the hearts of the outcast children and the beautiful and loving couple that care for the need of the least of these. How blessed I was to behold Your hands and feet hard at work, persevering through many trials, storms and unending challenges over the years firmly rooted and grounded in You. To see Your son and daughter walking out their faith, not looking at how the world sees things but through Christ like eyes that trust all things are possible for those who live in You. Father thank You for the gift of time spent with these very special people, to talk, laugh and share in all the things we are thankful for in one mind and one accord. Father I pray You will continue to bless this precious home with ever good and perfect gift from above. Meeting and exceeding every need. Protect each adolescent whereever they may go. May each and everyone come to know You and their names be written in the Lambs book of life. May they know the love, mercy and grace You have for each of them along with the unique plan You have for their lives. Strengthen Your son and daughter to continue the work that You have called them to do, keeping them healthy and strong. Father send the helpers to walk along side this very special couple to help carry the load all the while praising and worshiping Your Holy name Jesus. I can't thank You enough for the memories of today that I will long cherish. I'm inspired for they have truly pursed peace, uplifting and encouraging the next generation in Your name and for Your glory! Hallelujah. Amen.

Ephesians 2:10

For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Dear Heavenly Father,
You Lord alone saves. By Your grace You gave the gift of salvation. That never originated by any effort of our own, but arose from Your loving kindness given at the cross. Lord You created everything and everyone for Your good pleasure. The earth and everything in it is Your masterpiece. I am awestruck by Your handiwork when I gaze upon small infants the intricacies of their bodies and beauty of their feature are incredible. When I glance out the window at the setting sun and the spectacular display of color painted across the sky I'm in awe of Your artistry. Early in the stillness of the morning as I listen in quiet, a solo bird sings a sweet melody as the day dawns and the grass glistens with frost it truly takes my breath away. As I reflect upon my life and purpose I'm sure of only one thing I was created to bring glory to You my loving Father, with all I do and say. May I walk in the light of Your amazing love, honor You with words and deeds and tell every friend and foe of Your amazing grace. Thank You Jesus for loving me, giving up Your life so I may have life eternal. Thank You Jesus that You are with me even to the end of the age to complete every work You have for me. May I loving serve You with humble devotion, lifting You high for all the world to behold Your magnificent glory. I love You Lord with all that is with in my small, human existence. Thank Your for Your precious shed blood that has cleansed me from all my iniquities. May I walk in Your ways all the days of my life. In Your precious name I pray. Amen.

John 20:31

...but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name. 

Dear Holy Father,
There was a time when I was like Thomas unbelieving, until I could see for myself. But a leap of faith has blessed me for I have not yet seen the physical Christ, but I believe with all my heat, soul and strength You have given Your beautiful and precious Son as ransom to pay my sin debt. You have promised most assuredly, that he who hears Your words and believes in Jesus would have everlasting life and shall not come into judgement but pass from death to life. Father I pray for those who are spiritual dead to hear the voice of Your Spirit calling, may they run to Him and they shall live. I pray they will not be afraid, but behold we who believe bring good tidings of great joy, the Savior who is Christ our Lord has come. I pray Lord to share my testimony that is true and other will know it is the truth so they too will come to believe in You who creates all things new. Even though I have been grieved by various trials, the genuineness of my faith which is more precious than gold has been tested by fire. May I be found praising, honoring and glorifying the revelation of Jesus Christ, whom I love where ever I may go. I rejoice Lord with joy inexpressible and full of thanksgiving for the gift. May all the people come to know, and every knee bowing, confessing with all their hearts You are the salvation of their souls.  Father I pray to cast my net on the right side to become a fisher of men, following You all the days of my life. In Your name Jesus, Amen.

Matthew 18:2

Then Jesus called a little child to Him, set him in the midst of them, and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, unless you are converted and become as little children, you will be no means enter the kingdom of heaven."

I pray to You Heavenly Father so my heart may not be haughty, nor my eyes lofty. May I not concern myself with great matters, nor with things too profound for me. May I just come to You as a child. Surely You will quiet my soul. Like a weaned child with his mother, so is my soul within me. My hope is in You my Lord and God from this time forth and forever. I pray for all to humble themselves like little children, with trust, dependence, and awestruck wonder as they seek Your face, Father. How blessed are the meek for they share inherit the earth. Lord may my understanding of the essentials of humility deepen. The knowing of its importance to enter the kingdom of heaven, to grasp the greatness of You, to prevent offenses, to carry on living with proper discipline, and for extending forgiveness to one another. I rejoice for those Father who humble themselves as a little child for they are the greatest in heaven and truly following the example of Your beautiful and magnificent Son Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Father I ask for the blessing of eyes that see as You see, so I may receive and welcome in to my heart those who are childlike in Your name. May the revelation of what real fellowship is all about be made known to the ends of all the earth. I love You Lord. In Your name Jesus I pray, Amen.

Luke 2:37

...and this women was a widow of about eighty-four years, who did not depart from the temple, but served God with fasting and prayers night and day.

Dear Holy Father,
You Lord are my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? You are the strength of my life, of whom shall I be afraid? My heart Lord shall not fear. One thing I desire of You Lord, and that which I seek, that I may dwell in Your house all the days of my life. To behold the beauty of holiness. For in times of trouble or sickness You have hid me in Your pavilion, in the secret place of Your tabernacle. Oh Lord that You would set me high upon the rock. Father, as I think upon Anna fasting and praying, serving You night and day, my hearts desire is to do the same. I bless You Lord for the faithful saints who are in their later years, whom You sent to nurture and minister to me. I pray Lord as they draw near to You, You will bless their days so they are far greater than there former days. Lord Jesus You have lifted up our heads above our enemies. Therefore we will offer the sacrifices of joy. To know Your presence in this life and not be dissuaded by the enemy. Lord You are of such pleasant nature, I shall sing and praise You. When You said "Seek My face," my heart answered and said to You, "Your face, Lord, I will seek all the day of my life." When the world around me has forsaken me, O God of my salvation, You Lord will always take care of me. Father, teach me Your ways. Lead me on the path that is smooth. I shall wait on You Lord, being of good courage and You shall strengthen my heart. I pray for all to wait upon You so they may see Your goodness. Even when adversaries and false witnesses rise up against Your children, they shall not lose heart because they believe in You the risen Christ. May we continue to give thanks and speak of You Jesus to all who look for redemption. In Your blessed name Jesus, Amen.

Psalm 150

Praise the Lord!

Dear Heavenly Father,
Even though my body aches, I shall praise You my Lord! I shall praise You in the sanctuary; praise You in Your mighty firmament! Even though my bones groan, I shall praise You for Your mighty acts; praising You Lord according to Your excellent greatness! Even though the fatigue wants to consume me, I will praise You with the sound of the trumpet, praise You even more with the harp and lute! Praising You with timbrel and dance! Yes, even though my head throbs, I shall praise You with loud and crashing cymbals!! Let all including me that has breath praise our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. No matter how I may physically feel You are still seated on the throne and worthy of all praise glory and honor. I shall rejoice knowing one day there will be no more suffering. Hallelujah! Come Lord Jesus come! In Your name I rejoice and praise You, Amen.

1 Thessalonians 5:24

He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.
  
Lord, I call out to You. Make haste to me. Give ear to my voice when I cry out to You. Let my prayer be set before You as incense, may the lifting up of my hands be as the evening sacrifice. Set a guard Lord over my mouth; keep watch over the doors of my lips. Do not incline my heart to any evil thing. To practice wicked works with men who work iniquity. Do not let me eat of their delicacies. But let the righteous strike me, it shall be kindness. Let him rebuke me and it shall be excellent oil. Let my head not refuse it. Lord You are faithful and will not let me be tempted beyond what I am able. Thank You that with the temptation You will also make a way of escape, that I may be able to bear it. May I flee from idolatry of all kinds. You do not want us to have fellowship with demons. We can not drink of Your cup and the cup of the fallen angels. I pray we may be confident in that You who have begun a good work in us and will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.  Father I pray for the brethren that Your word may run swiftly and be glorified. May they be delivered from unreasonable and wicked men, for not all have faith. But You my Lord are faithful and will establish and guard them from the evil one. Father direct their hearts into Your love and the patience of Christ. I pray the brethren would withdrawal from every brother who walks disorderly and not according to the tradition which they have received from You. Father I pray for those who will not work, neither they shall eat. I have heard that their are some in the body that eat bread of idleness, not working at all, but are busybodies causing trouble and division in the church. So Lord may we not grow weary in doing good, noting the person who does not obey You and will not keep company with them. Be with Your children giving them peace in always and every way. Bless You Lord Jesus for Your grace. Amen.

Zechariah 9:9

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King is coming to you; He is just and having salvation, lowly and riding on a donkey, a colt, the foal of a donkey.

Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest! I shall sing and shout, rejoicing with all my heart. You my Lord and God, the mighty One who saves is in our midst. Bless You Lord Jesus for rejoicing over us with gladness and singing. You quiet us with Your love. Bless You Lord for saving the lost now. The people walk in darkness but will see Your great light! I pray Father for those who dwell in the land of the shadow of death, please shine Your light upon them so they may see Your Son's triumphal entry. May we throw down our filthy rags and welcome in the only One who can cleanse our souls. Waving our palms high in the air, worshiping the King of kings and Lord of lords. Father, I am always amazed at the thought of the Messiah, humbling Himself to ride a small donkey. As I look at the mark of the cross on the colt's back a gentle reminder my Savior Jesus Christ is omniscience, omnipresent, and omnipotent over all nature and creation I'm in total awe of Him. Jesus, You calm, transform and change even the wildest of hearts. Lord, I pray for all those who are out of control, unrestrained and running haphazardly to and fro searching for love, peace and joy in the stables of mysticism, drugs and alcohol, prestige and power, financial resources and illicit sexual encounters and various other worldly things. The hope for a fulfilling life can only be found in You Jesus. Please still and hush their anxious hearts so they may hear You calling. May they stop and turn from their ways and find refuge in Your mercy and grace. Lord all glory and honor is Yours forever and ever Amen.

Galatians 6:14

But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Upon my awaking this morning this beautiful hymn plays a lovely melody in my mind. Turn your eyes upon Jesus. Look full in to His wonderful face, and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace... Oh Father, what an amazing gift You have given, may all come to believe in Jesus. Your precious Son who is without spot or blemish calling out to You, speaking these loving words as He hung on the cross, "Father forgive them they no not what they do."  It was my sin that held Him there. It would have been just for me to have been punished for my transgressions, but Your beautiful Son Jesus upon my repentance, welcomed me with outstretched arms. How I rejoice knowing I will one day be in paradise with You. Father, my heart is overwhelmed with gratitude and thanksgiving for remembering me and not condemning me to spend eternity in darkness and torment.  I am determined to know Jesus Christ and Him crucified, not putting my faith  in the wisdom of men but in Your power my God and King. Father I pray for You to always lead us in triumph. Diffusing us with the fragrance of knowledge of You in every place that we go. May we always remembering that to those who are being saved we are the aroma of life and to those who are perishing the aroma of death. Father, open the doors of the hearts that are lost so we may share our testimonies and the Gospel so may be received for Your glory. As we walk in this Lord may peace and mercy be upon us. I love You Lord with all my heart. In Your name Jesus I pray, Amen.

Daniel 7:14

Then to Him was given dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all people, nations and languages should serve Him. His dominion is everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away. And His kingdom the one which shall not be destroyed.

Dear Heavenly Father,
It is so good to sing praises to You, for it is pleasant and beautiful. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom. And Your dominion endures throughout all generations. You Lord uphold all who fall, and raise up all who are bowed down. The eyes of all look expectantly to You, and You give us our food in due season. You open Your hand and satisfy the desire of every living thing.  Lord You are gracious and full of compassion. Slow to anger and great in mercy. You Lord are good to all. Your tender mercies are over all Your works. Jesus all authority has been given to You in heaven and on earth. Father, I am not the Christ, but have been instructed by Your Son to go and make disciples of all the nations, and may they be baptized in Your name Father and in the name of Your Son and of the Holy Spirit. May I be used to teach them to observe all the things You have commanded. May I not ceases to give thanks for You Lord, for granting the blessing of the spirit of wisdom, and revelation of the knowledge of You. May the eyes of our understanding be enlightened, that we would know what is the hope of Your calling and what are the riches of the glory of Your inheritance in the saints. May we know the exceeding greatness of Your power towards us who believe according to the working of Your mighty power which You worked when You were raised from the dead. You Lord are seated at the right hand in the heavenly places, far above all principalities and power and might and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come. All things Jesus are under Your feet, and given to You, to be head over all things, and to the church which is Your body. May we remember that You are with us even to the end of the age. In Your powerful and mighty name Jesus, Amen.

Matthew 9:13

But go and learn what this means: I desire mercy and not sacrifice. For I did not come to call the righteous, but the sinner, to repentance.

 Dear Heavenly Father, 
I pray for all to come and return to You. May the people come to their senses and seek to renew their allegiance to You Lord. And You will heal them. Thank You Father, when they truly repent, You are eager to restore Your relationship with them. My hope Lord is for revival. I pray all may live in Your sight. May we pursue the knowledge of You. Lord Your going forth is established as morning and will come to us like a cloudburst. Restoring Your presence to those who turn from their ways. Your blessings shall be like showers that water and refresh. The latter rain causing us to grow and the former rain softening our hearts for plowing and sowing. May we not be like the morning dew that is thick, short lived and quickly fades in the sunlight. May we remain faithful all our days. Jesus You came into the world to save the sinners. You are our deliverer who rescues us from the pit. I praise You Lord Jesus for You are the King eternal, immortal, invisible, and God alone who is wise. All honor and glory are Yours forever and ever. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray, Amen.

Watch, stand fast in faith, be brave be strong.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Truly my soul silently waits for You. From You comes my salvation. Lord You are my rock and my defense. I shall not be greatly moved. My expectation is from You. May I trust in You at all times. Father, I pray to be alert, watching therefore I do not know when the day nor the hour will come when Your Son will return. I pray to be wise and have my oil in its vessel and may lamp burning bright. May I be prudent, and faithful like one of the five virgins always having my heart prepared and ready, not slumbering or sleeping. May I stand fast in the gospel which has been declared to me. Father by the power of Your Holy Spirit keeping me strong in the liberty by Christ who made me free, not to be entangled with the yoke of  bondage again. So blessed am I whose transgression is forgiven. For my sin is covered. I will extol You, O Lord for You have lifted me up. How great is Your goodness which You have laid up for those who fear You. Which You have prepared for those who trust in You in the presence of the sons of men! You shall hide us in the secret place of Your presence. You shall keep us secretly in Your pavilion. Hallelujah! Thank You Lord. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Proverbs 31

Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is more than rubies.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Please lean Your ear to hear my prayer. May the heart of my husband safely trust me. So he will have no lack of gain. May I always do him good and not evil all the days of my life. May I willingly work with my hands. May I be like a merchant ship bringing food, wool and flax that will always provide for my family. May I arise while it is still yet night to prepare meals for them to be nourished on. And an extra portion for those in need. May I consider a field and buy it with the blessings from the works of my hands. May I be girded with Your strength, and by Your Spirit be strengthened in my arms. May my lamp never go out at night as I explore avenues of cottage industry. As my hand holds on to the spindle may I extend my other hand to the poor. Lord I pray to stretch out both hands to the needy. I am not afraid of snow, for my household is clothed with scarlet. Your beautiful gift of salvation. As You help me to make tapestry of friendships, You have clothed me in fine linen and purple. May my husband be know at the gates and sit among the elders of the land. May strength and honor be my clothing as I rejoice in the time to come. When I open my mouth Lord may wisdom pour out, and my tongue speak kindly. Father guide me as I watch over the way of my household, not eating bread of idleness. I pray one day my children will rise up and call me blessed. May my husband also speak words of praise and gratitude. Many daughters Lord have done well but I pray to excel them all. Charm is so deceitful and beauty is fleeting. Oh but Lord a women who fears You she shall be praised. Thank You Lord for all the many blessing and opportunities You have given graciously and abundantly. May I share Your goodness with the generations to come. Praising my Lord Jesus all the day of my life. I love You Lord, Amen.

Romans 15:13

Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Thank You Heavenly Father that Your kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. May my good not be spoken of as evil, because I have not chosen the brief satisfaction of my selfish desires but have chosen to seek harmony, and actions that bless others. Always remembering You Jesus became a servant of all, may I do likewise by following Your example. May I be steadfast, immovable in You my Lord knowing my labor is not in vain. Lord, I put my hope in You continually and will praise You yet more and more. My mouths shall tell of Your righteousness and of Your salvation. Thank You Lord for filling me with Your Spirit so others may see the joy and peace You have blessed me with. When the lost and hurting encounter, Your beloved children may they be amazed at the undeniable hope we have in You the Lord of all. Jesus, You are the Word of life, made manifest. You have been seen and have been declared to us so our joy may be full. Use us Lord to declare it to other so they may have fellowship with You. Thank You Jesus that our sins are forgiven us by Your name's sake. May we be aware of the liars who deny that You Jesus are the Christ. May they come to understand whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either. Let know one Lord deceive us, but may we abide in You. Teach us all things which are true. Lord, we have confidence knowing and are not ashamed for You are coming again to reign in glory. Every knee shall bow, and tongue confess You are the Lord. In Your holy and precious name Jesus I pray and give thanks, Amen.

James 1:9

Let the lowly brother glory in his exaltation. 

Dear Heavenly Father,
Today I shall not fret because of evildoers. Nor shall I be envious of the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down as grass, and wither like the green herb. I shall trust in You my Lord and do my best to do good. May I dwell in Your land, and feed on Your faithfulness Jesus. May all my delight be in You as I commit my ways to You. I trust in knowing You shall bring all good things to pass. Thank You Lord that You will bring forth Your righteousness as light and justice as noonday. I shall rest in You Jesus, and wait patiently for the blessings of the desires of my heart. How bless we are Lord to know as the bridegroom rejoices over the bride, So You our God rejoice over us. Father, I am deeply humbled by this precious thought. I bow my heart and bend my knee in joy and thanksgiving for Your amazing love that You pour out on Your children. You love those who love You, and those who diligently seek You will find Your for sure. Father I stand in awe that You possessed Your Son at the beginning of Your ways. Before the works of old. He has been established from everlasting. From the beginning before there was even an earth. When there was no depth, or fountain abounding of water, even before the mountains where settled. Or the hills brought forth. When the heavens where prepared Jesus, You where there. Father how great to know when You drew the circle on the face of the deep, and established the clouds above, and assigned the sea its limits, so the water would not transgress Your command, Jesus was there. Jesus daily You are the Fathers delight, rejoicing before Him. Father I pray for Your children to humble themselves and listen to You. Inheriting the promise of blessed are those who keep Your ways. May we hear Your instruction and be wise. Who ever finds You Lord finds life and obtain favor from You gracious outstretched hand. Thank You Jesus for first loving me. In Your precious name I give You glory, honor and praise. Amen.

1 Timothy 2:9

...in like manner also, that the women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with propriety and moderation, not with braided hair or gold or pearls or costly clothing.

How lovely is Your tabernacle, O Lord of hosts! My soul longs, yes, even faints. For the courts of You my Lord; My heart and flesh cry out for You the living God. Father, I pray for the young and old ladies of the world because they are haughty and walk with outstretched necks and wanton eyes. They are lost walking around mincing as the go. I pray Lord, they would see themselves as You see them as lovely, precious and of great value. May they find rest from their pretense and flagrant displays trying to be noticed and loved. May they come to understand there is more to the depth of who they are then headdress, leg ornaments, jingling anklets, scarves, bracelets, rings and charms. Father Your daughters put on outer garments and look to the reflection in the mirror for validation. Never seeing the light of Your adoring embrace. My heart is so sad to see my sister trying to cover their shame and regrets with fine linens instead of standing naked before the lover of their souls. Sweet Jesus may Your mercy and grace fall on them transforming them into beautiful women of godly character, sound judgement and self-control. May Your daughters rejoice because they are fearfully and wonderfully made. Marvelous are Your works, You never make a mistake and have hand crafted each and every one. May our souls know so well that our frames were not hidden from You, when we were made in the secret place. How precious are Your thoughts towards us, O God. How great is the sum of them! If we were to count them, they would be more than the numbers of grains of sand.  Search us Lord and know our hearts. Try us and see if there is any wicked way in us so we will turn from it and be free from all anxieties. Lead us Lord in Your ways that are everlasting. I love You Jesus and ask this in Your name. Amen

Galatians 2:21

"I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain."

Dear Holy Father,
I did not receive Your Spirit by the works of the law, but by faith. Lord, I pray for your children who have begun in the Spirit and are now trying to be made perfect by their flesh. I rejoice knowing that I have been crucified with Christ and it is no longer I who lives but You who lives in me. May those who are acting foolishly lacking wisdom quickly recall the gospel of Your Sons crucifixion. Remembering that faith comes by hearing and the hearing of Your word. May we rest today in the truth we cannot achieve perfection through our own efforts, but by Your grace through the resurrection power. May we behold the manner of love that You our Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! And now that we are Your children and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, we know when Your Son is revealed we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. Lord thank You that everyone who has this hope will purify themselves, just as You are pure. Thank You Lord that we can come to You at any time confessing our transgressions and You are quick to forgive us. Restoring us to favor by Your grace and we do not have to run around trying to earn our way back to You. Jesus, You spoke the greatest words from the cross, "It is finish." and this was not done in vain. Bless You Jesus for overcoming sin and death, rising in victory over the grave. Bless You for the greatest gift ever given, may we always remember giving thanks and praise. I pray for those who have not met You yet may they be drawn to You, to be given a new life hidden in You. No longer loving the things of the world but loving You the Creator of all things. I love You Lord and in Your mighty name Jesus I pray. Amen.

2 Corinthians 11:1

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into apostles of Christ.

Dear Heavenly Father,
Oh my heart is heavy today. The world around me is infiltrated with those who advocate unbiblical ideas. Many who teach falsehoods appear to be very sincere. But Father they are leading Your children astray. These attractive hucksters who tickle the itching ears for their own profit and personal gain must be exposed so Your people will not fall into a trap. Your word urges us in Romans 16 to note those who cause division and offenses, contrary to the doctrine we have learned and avoid them. For they do not serve our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own bellies, by smooth words and flattering speech deceiving the hearts of the simple. Father I pray to not be a men pleaser, but to be a bond servant of Christ. Open our eyes to be aware of  evil workers who are disguised as ministers of righteousness. Understanding that satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light. Father, my heart is concerned for those who have not heard the saving truth of the Gospel. Please Lord open their ears to hear of Your mercy and grace You so lovingly poured out on the cross and the power of the resurrection. May many surrender their hearts and wills in to Your hands. May they be cleansed from all unrighteousness, becoming new creations. Jesus be glorified in the lives of those who call upon Your name for they shall be saved. Father cleanse Your church, purify us from all filthiness. So we may be Your beloved bride. May we return to You our first love. In Jesus precious name, Amen.

Acts 8:20

But Peter said to him, "Your money perish with you, because you thought that the gift of God could be purchased with money!"

Dear Heavenly Father,
Many years ago my heart was not right either. Thinking I could earn Your love with acts of service, financial offerings, and striving to live perfectly. I thought that in this way You would be please and accept me in to Your kingdom. But this is just wickedness in Your sight, an exalting of myself above Your amazing grace. I was poisoned by bitterness and bound by iniquity until the day I repented and my heart was forgiven by You. I bless the day my eyes have seen Your salvation, which You have prepared for all people. A Light to bring revelation to the gentiles and the glory of Your people Israel. I ask blessings Lord for all those who fervently prayed for me as I was lost in the ways of the world. I thank You Lord that I may now testify and teach others Your word. To watch others be set free, for whom the Son set free is free indeed. Through Him Father You have granted that we would be delivered from the hands of our enemies, so we may serve You with out fear, in holiness and righteousness all the days of our lives. I pray Lord for the day that there will be nothing covered that will not be revealed, and hidden that will not be know. Whatever Lord You tell me in the dark, I shall speak in the light, and what I hear in my ear I shall preach on the housetops. Thank You Lord Jesus that I shall not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But Lord to have reverence for You who is able to destroy both body and soul in hell. I pray to confess You before men and thank You Jesus that You will acknowledge me before our Father in heaven. I pray Lord for mercy on the souls that deny You before men, for You will deny them. Lord I pray this will be the day of their salvation and there will be much rejoicing as sinners come home. In Your beautiful and loving name, the name above all names Jesus, Amen.

Luke 6:43

For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

Dear Heavenly Father,
May I live in the way of the righteous and not walk in the counsel of the ungodly. To be in the world but not be affected by the world. I desire not to sit in the seat of the scornful, but delight myself in You my Lord. May I meditate on Your word night and day, so I may be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season. May my leaf not wither and what ever I do be productive and useful. Father I pray for others to understand that good works are definitely not the root of salvation, but they surely are the fruit of salvation. Lord I pray blessings for all the seeds of Your word that have fallen on the good ground of those who have heard it with a noble and good heart, may they keep it and bear fruit with patience. Lord by wisdom of the Holy Spirit within Your people may there be an increase of discernment that will guide us away from those who bear bad fruit. Not tasting their bitterness, hatred, anger, jealousy, lewdness, unrest, wickedness, rudeness or their lack of self control. May we pursue peace with all people and holiness, without which no one will see You. May our eyes look carefully lest anyone fall short of Your grace. May we not allow any root of bitterness to spring up causing trouble, and defiling many. Father, may all those who walk in Your ways and do Your will continue to blossom in all areas of their lives. Enjoying the blessings only You can give. Father, may the fruit of love, joy and peace feed the lost and hurting, nourishing them in the sweetness of the truth of Your Gospel, bringing glory to Your precious and beautiful Son the first fruit. Thank You Lord for You have pour out Your cup, and  I have tasted of Your goodness. I love You Jesus, in You name I pray, Amen.

1 Thessalonians 2:13

For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe.

Dear Heavenly Father,
May I make a joyful shout to You. Serving You with gladness. May I come before Your presence with singing. Knowing with all my heart my Lord is God! It is You that has made me and not me who made myself. I am a wee sheep of Your pasture. May I enter Your gates with thanksgiving for all those who have received Your word. Standing in awe of all those who have not been consumed with worry about what they should speak, but trusted You when the time came to share they would know exactly what to say to share Your Gospel.  Lord I pray for the same confidence knowing when I speak the truth it is not me but the Spirit of my Father who speaks. Lord I praise You for all the seeds that have been sown on good ground, received and accepted and now bear fruit some thirty fold, some sixty and some a hundred. Thank You Lord for the day You opened my heart to hear Your Spirit whispering the truth that set me free. I thank You Lord for continuing to work in all those who believe. Bless them Lord for their faithfulness in serving You. Protect them, and keep them growing strong in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

Luke 2:14

"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men!"

Blessed be our God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.  Father, You chose us in Your Son before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Jesus in love, having predestined us to adoption as sons according to Your good pleasure. May we praise You for the glory of Your grace that You have made us accepted in Your Beloved. Thank You Father for the Helper, the Holy Spirit who You sent in the name of Jesus who will teach us all things, and bring to remembrance all things that You have said to us. Your peace Jesus You have given to us, not as the world gives. Telling us not to let our hearts be troubled or let it be afraid. Bless You Jesus for these things that You so lovingly spoken so we may have peace. Even though in this world we have tribulations we shall be of good cheer for You have overcome the world. Lord I pray for my brother and sisters, You would grant them according to Your riches and of Your glory to be strengthened with might through Your Holy Spirit in the inner man as You dwell in our hearts. Through faith we will be rooted and grounded in love, and be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width, length, depth and height of Your love which passes all knowledge, so we may be filled with all Your fullness. Thank You Lord that we are fellow heirs, of the same body, and partakers of Your promises through the You in the Gospel. Jesus be glorified in and through Your body the church today. In Your mighty name Jesus, Amen.
