A Morning Prayer of Humility and Gratitude

Good morning, Abba Father. LORD, to honor You, I am humbled that You even notice me. In all humility, I want to say thank You for being a God who cares about me. Thank You, LORD God, for being my God. I have no other god but You. I cannot imagine any other god as great and merciful as You are. I will bow down and worship You alone, LORD, my God. Thank You for being with me every step of the way. Forgive me when I stray and do my own thing. I ask for forgiveness for my sins, both known and unknown, today, LORD. Abba Father, today I take Your yoke upon me. Help me learn from You, for You are gentle and humble in heart, and let me find rest for my soul. For Your yoke is easy, and Your burden is light. Today, God, I am humbled that You carefully consider my life. Even though I am here on earth for just a moment, You care deeply about that moment. When I think about this, it humbles me. O LORD, who am I that the God of the universe cares about someone like me? Thank You for loving me. Today, please show me how to consider others as You have considered me. LORD, my God, to You who is able to do far more than we ask, think, or imagine, to You be all glory, honor, and praise. Ephesians 3:20–21 El Simchath Gili—God, my exceeding joy—today I want to feel many emotions, but I want joy to be at the forefront of my life. Abba, I want to dedicate and pray for my family and friends today. LORD, may the God of hope fill each one of us with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit we may abound in hope. LORD, I want to pray over each person I name today. I speak the name of JESUS over each one. I dedicate and pray that the blessings of the LORD make us rich, and He adds no sorrow with it. Proverbs 10:22 I pray for: Jean, Jacklyn, Andus, me, Alezandra, Pieter, Andus Jnr, Jacques, Didi, Gizel, Cuba, Devan, Johan, Odette, Anabelle, Briana, Mom, Oom Frik, Elsa, Llewelyn, Zelda, Sean, Patrick, Duane, Nikita, Matthew, Elijah, Paul, Carla, Jadyn, Adam, Jocelyn, Aurther, Dante, Benjamin, Violette, Alison, Elma, Peet, Elmarie, Ben, kid, Douw, Zayeen, Megan, Josh, Hannelie, Alan, Rina, Karina, Petro, Wilma, Koos, Saddika, Kevin, Moosa, Aneesa, Lorraine, Kiewiet, Deon, Veronica. LORD, as we navigate our way through this day, I pray and ask that You heal us, protect us, and watch over us. Thank You for giving us all things. You, LORD, justify, and You, LORD Jesus, are interceding for each one of us. Today, I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over each person I bring before You. I ask that we may be surrounded by Your angels. Thank You for hearing my prayer. Thank You for being my LORD. Let Your will be done today in our lives. I ask that we all may have the breakthroughs we've been praying for. You know each of us, and You know we cannot do life on our own. Please keep Your hand over our lives. Where there is lack, I pray for an abundance of provision. Where there is sickness, please bring healing. Where there is strife, help us work towards unity and care for each other. Blessings and honor are due to You, LORD, my God. Your hand is not shortened; I believe You will provide and bring us what we need. Thank You for sending Your angels to protect and help us. I praise and worship You. Thank You, LORD, in Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
