Day 2 prayer

Good morning, Abba Father,
All glory and honor belong to You, Holy God. Today, I come to praise and worship You with all my heart. Thank You for the precious rain, a reminder of Your grace upon all creation. As I look out my window, I see the water nurturing the grass, plants, and all living things, a beautiful display of Your love. Thank You for this wonderful blessing, Lord. Father, I feel blessed to have this time to be in Your presence. You know me by name, You understand my heart, and You know my deepest thoughts. I’m grateful for each moment I can dedicate my life back to You, seeking to purify my heart, mind, and body in Your presence. As I continue this second day of fasting, I confess my struggles, Lord. I battle with negativity in my thoughts, actions, and words. Please forgive me for these shortcomings, for my anger and frustration. I lift up those around me, even those who test my patience, releasing them to You in Jesus’ name, asking that You bring them peace and fulfil their heart’s desires. My husband is away for a time of rest. May You bless him during this time, and may he find true restoration. Lord, You know why I am fasting and coming to You. Today, I lift up Andus, me, Alezandra, Pieter, Andus Jnr., Jacques, Didi, Gizel, Cuba, Devan, Johan, Odette, Anabelle, Briana, Jean, Jacklyn, my mom, Oom Frik, Elsa, Llewelyn, Zelda, Sean, Patrick, Duane, Nikita, Matthew, Elijah, Paul, Carla, Jadyn, Adam, Jocelyn, Aurther, Dante, Benjamin, Violette, Alison. Father, I pray for supernatural favor, protection, and guidance for each one, that Your angels would watch over us. You know my mother’s struggles with her breathing, Lord; please bring her relief and strength in her body. I pray for healing, restoration, and peace in all my relationships, blessing each person I’ve named. Lord, I also lift up my friends: Elma, Alette, Peet, Elmarie, Ben, Douw, Zayeen, Lea, Megan, Josh, Hannelie, Alan, Rina-Hannes, Karina, Petro, Bianca, Wilma, Koos, Saddika, Kevin, Moosa, Aneesa, Ras, Lorraine, Kiewiet, Deon, and Veronica. You know their needs, Lord. Elma is still hurting after being robbed; Alette is anxious about her job loss. Please guide, protect, and bless each of them and bring new opportunities into their lives. Today, as I draw closer to You, I dedicate my life to You. I want to be intentional about my relationship with You and those around me. I ask that You, Holy Spirit, would reveal the purpose You have for me. I’m weary, and my body is tired. I ask that You strengthen me to approach this fast with conviction and with Your guidance. Lord, I acknowledge my faults, my struggles with resentment, and my tendency toward hurtful words. I release my pain and anger, and I forgive those who have wronged me, as You have forgiven me. Please grant me the wisdom and understanding that only Your Holy Spirit can give. I pray for this fast to renew my mind, body, and soul. Throughout this day, as I pause to pray and seek You, I ask for refreshment through Your Spirit. Help me adopt a spiritual perspective that brings both physical and spiritual renewal. Jesus, I long to rekindle my relationship with You. I want my mind to be renewed, my words to reflect Your goodness, and my life to have a positive impact on my family, work, and the restoration of my financial situation. Please guide me out of the debt I’ve incurred and help me make wise choices. Finally, I bring my mother before You, asking for Your healing touch on her lungs, that she may breathe freely. Please, Lord, bring life and healing to her body. In Your holy name, I pray, 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 ...
