LORD help mom

"As I face a dark moment in my life, I'm searching for a lifeline of encouragement. I'm feeling overwhelmed and unsure of where to turn. With over 30,000 verses in the Bible, it's like trying to find a needle in a haystack to discover a life verse that will speak directly to my heart. Right now, I'm struggling to encourage myself as my mom is going through a tough time with financial struggles and lack of provisions. I feel discouraged, afraid, and uncertain about the future. It's like everything I hold dear is under attack and out of reach. As I read about King David's story in 1 Samuel 30, I see that he, too, faced a similar crisis when his families were kidnapped and everything they had was destroyed. But instead of giving up, he chose to "encourage himself in the Lord" (1 Samuel 30:6). That's exactly what I need to do – encourage myself in the Lord. In Psalm 119:28, I'm reminded to "strengthen [myself] according to [God's] word." And in Joshua 1:9, I'm urged to be strong and courageous, not fearing or being dismayed, because God is always with me. I confess that I've failed God in many ways, but I choose to sing the joy of the Lord as my strength. I pray that You would help me take You into my life today and guide me through this difficult season. Please help my mom as well. Help me find my way forward and trust in Your goodness and provision."

Morning Devotion: Seeking Strength and Guidance

Good morning, Abba Father. Great and mighty are You, LORD my God. I worship and praise Your Holy Name. Abba, You are wonderful, and I adore You with all my heart, soul, and mind. Thank You, Abba, for a new day. Thank You for being patient, kind, and understanding towards me. 1 Chronicles 16:11 reminds me, “Seek the LORD and His strength; seek His presence continually!” Today, LORD, I seek You. Abba, I seek Your strength and desire to be in Your presence every day. I humbly commit my day and work into Your hands, surrendering my life and everything I do to You. O Abba, I love You so very much. As I navigate through my day, Your Word is my guide. In Matthew 11:28, You say, “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” I stand before You this morning, asking for Your hand to shield me, my family, and my friends. I dedicate each person I name into Your hands: Andus, me, Alezandra, Pieter, Andus Jr., Jacques, Didi, Gizel, Cuba, Devan, Johan, Odette, Anabelle, Briana, Jean, Jacklyn, 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, and Veronica. LORD, each of us carries burdens we cannot bear alone. I come humbly before You, laying down my burdens. I worry about my mom, Oom Frik, my husband, children, grandchildren, and stepchildren. You know our circumstances and what we face each day. Abba, without You, we are nothing. I pray and stand in the gap for each one today, bringing Elma, Karina, and Rina into Your presence. You know what they face. Help them all today. God, thank You for showing me true love. Your will is for the world to know You, walk with You, and love You. In Your presence, I find joy. O Abba, today, please show me how I can share Your love with those around me. I present myself before You this morning, along with everyone I am thinking of. Abba, I ask that You meet me in my failures, struggles, brokenness, and despair. LORD, I need Your Holy Spirit, and Jesus, I ask You to be my guide. As I clothe myself with You, LORD Jesus Christ, protect each one of us today. We cannot do without You. Help me, please, LORD my God. Father, You know my needs before I ask. I remind You, LORD, about my sponsorships, exhibitions, and delegate tickets. I ask that You open the doors for each person I have brought before You. Only You know what we face. Thank You, LORD, for hearing my prayer. I praise and worship You. In the name of Jesus Christ, thank You, Lord, for today. Amen.

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.

May our granaries be full, providing all kinds of produce, and may there be no cries of distress in our streets. Blessed are the people who receive such blessings! Blessed are the people whose God is the LORD! As I start my day, I declare Your Word over each person I have brought to You in prayer. We are what the Word says we are. We can do what the Word says we can do. We can have what the Word says we can have. As we believe this, we speak it out in faith.

Thank You, LORD my God, in the holy name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Amen.

A Prayer of Dedication and Trust in the LORD

Good morning, Father God. LORD God, I want to honor You with every thought, idea, intention, and action. Today, I give You permission to transform me. Let my entire life be a testament to Your glory and honor. You are holy and worthy of all my praise and adoration. My life is Yours. Proverbs 3:5-6 (ESV) says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Today, I dedicate and pray specifically for my family and friends, bringing each person before You in humble prayer: Jacques, Didi, Gizel, Cuba, Devan, Johan, Odette, Anabelle, Briana, Jean, Jacklyn, Andus, me, Alezandra, Pieter, Andus Jr., Mom, Oom Frik, Elsa, Llewelyn, Zelda, Sean, Patrick, Duane, Nikita, Matthew, Elijah, Paul, Carla, Jadyn, Adam, Jocelyn, Arthur, Dante, Benjamin, Violette, Alison, Elma, Peet, Elmarie, Ben, their children, Douw, Zayeen, Megan, Josh, Hannelie, Alan, Rina, Karina, Petro, Wilma, Koos, Saddika, Kevin, Moosa, Aneesa, Lorraine, Kiewiet, Deon, and Veronica. I specifically ask that You keep Your hand over each person I have mentioned this morning. Where doors are closed, I pray that You will open the right ones at the right time. As we navigate our lives today, make straight our paths and help each of us to acknowledge You as our LORD and Savior. Philippians 2:1-3 (ESV) says, “So if there is any encouragement in Christ, any comfort from love, any participation in the Spirit, any affection and sympathy, complete my joy by being of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.” LORD, I humbly pray that You will renew my mind. I am encouraged by You, Lord Jesus. Today, I pray that You complete our joy and help us not to be selfish, but to consider our family and friends. This morning, I stand in humble prayer and dedicate my family and friends into Your hands. You are Jehovah Jireh – the LORD who provides. You know each one of us. I bring each of us before You today. Where there is lack, I stand in the gap and pray for Your provision. Where there is sickness and worry, please bring healing. Many times, we feel uncertain about how we will pay our bills each month. Please let none of us feel terrified. We put our faith and trust in You. Thank You, LORD, for hearing my concerns. Matthew 7:11 (ESV) says, “If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!” LORD, I ask that You help each one of us and bless each person I named, in Jesus' name, according to Your Word. Philippians 4:19 (ESV) says, “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” I speak this word over every name I called out before You today. As I sit here speaking to You, LORD, it has been a tough year, and much is going on in each of our lives. I ask that You have mercy on each one of us today, for Your mercy is new every morning. I pray for supernatural favor from You and from people. Bless each person and keep us safe. Let Your will be done in our lives. You know my concerns and worries. Please take them to heart, but most of all, help me be the person You created me to be. Create in me a clean heart and a pure spirit. Give me the strength I need to continue. LORD, I bring my work into Your presence and ask for Your help in securing the necessary sponsorships, exhibitions, and delegate tickets. Open the doors wider that I have already begun to open, not to make me look great, but to help me assist my boss. I ask this in Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.

I am grateful for Your goodness and mercy towards each one of us. Lord, I love You, I need You, and I worship You.

I declare Your Word from Numbers 6:24-26 over every person: "The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace." I lift up Jacques, Didi, Gizel, Cuba, Devan, Johan, Odette, Anabelle, Briana, Jean, Jacklyn, Andus, me, Alezandra, Pieter, Andus Jnr., Mom, Oom Frik, Elsa, Llewelyn, Zelda, Sean, Patrick, Duane, Nikita, Matthew, Elijah, Paul, Carla, Jadyn, Adam, Jocelyn, Arthur, Dante, Benjamin, Violette, Alison, Elma, Peet, Elmarie, Ben, kids, Douw, Zayeen, Megan, Josh, Hannelie, Alan, Rina, Karina, Petro, Wilma, Koos, Saddika, Kevin, Moosa, Aneesa, Lorraine, Kiewiet, Deon, and Veronica. Today, I declare that we remain focused and continue in the things we have learned. I pray for supernatural favor over each name on my list. Lord, I ask for Your favor with You and with people. Keep us safe and protect us from harm. When we pass through the waters, You will be with us; through the rivers, they will not overwhelm us; when we walk through fire, we shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume us (Isaiah 43:2). Lord, I confess my sins and ask for Your forgiveness for known and unknown sins. I repent and pray for Your hand to rest on me today. I want to draw near to You and pray for the lives of each family member and friend. Keep us safe and protect us. I dedicate each of us into Your hands today. Let Your will be done in our lives. Thank You, Lord, for providing for us and for keeping us. Thank You for the good things You give us each day, for opening doors that are otherwise closed, and for allowing us to call on You daily. Thank You for blessing the work of our hands, for blessing our efforts, and for making our paths smooth. Lord, let Your Holy Spirit surround us and keep us safe. I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over each person. I bring each person to You, believing that You are our God and King, and You have called each of us by name. I love You, Lord. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray. Amen.

Where do you think God will source the resources to meet your needs?

“Giving thanks unto the Father...who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” - Colossians 1:12-13 If you find yourself struggling financially despite the Bible’s promises of prosperity and all the prayers you’ve offered, consider this: Where do you think God will source the resources to meet your needs? Many believers unknowingly limit God by focusing on the finite resources of this world rather than the infinite riches of God’s kingdom. Their faith wavers when they think of the unstable earthly economy, the shortages, and the scarcity around them. They ask, "How can God bless me amid all this?" If you’ve had these thoughts, here’s a perspective that can change everything! The Bible tells us God has “delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son.” To be translated means to be moved from one place to another. Essentially, your primary citizenship is not of this earth. You are not first and foremost an American, Canadian, or Australian―you are primarily a citizen of God’s kingdom. This means the conditions of this world do not dictate whether your needs are met. The Bible assures us that God will meet your needs according to His riches in glory (Philippians 4:19)! You can rely on heaven’s economy, not earth’s economy―and in heaven, there is always more than enough. Embrace the abundance of heaven that has been granted to you through Jesus. Recognize that you’ve been moved from a world of lack into a kingdom of abundance. Rejoice, for the limitless resources of heaven are available to you! Prayer Heavenly Father, thank You for providing for me each day according to Your riches in glory. I don't fully understand the economy, and my finances often fall short. Yet, I am grateful that You have not forgotten me and continue to provide. If I have sinned against You knowingly or unknowingly, please forgive me, Lord. I forgive the person I have been speaking to You about and release them in Jesus Christ’s name, asking that You also set me free. Although I don’t always understand how things work, You have been so faithful to me that I can't imagine how my life would be without Your mercy and guidance. Great is Your mercy and wonderful is Your name. All glory and honor belong to You, Lord, my God. Thank You for forgiving my sins and for hearing me when I call out to You. I am deeply grateful that You are still my God. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Looking up to God, I need YOU LORD Jesus

Lately, I've been struggling with a heavy feeling in my heart. It's like my own thoughts keep attacking me, accusing me of doing wrong things. I know as a Christian that these attacks come from Satan, but it's hard not to give in to them. It feels like Satan is always trying to hurt me, reminding me of my mistakes and making me feel guilty. I wonder why he's so determined to ruin my life. What does he gain if I give up?

But as I think about it, I realize that there's only one who can truly save me: Jesus Christ. He's always there for me, ready to fight for me. Just like in the story where Jesus defended a woman who was accused of doing wrong, he stands up for me against my accuser. I believe that sometimes my accuser disguises himself as someone who seems righteous. The accusations I hear in my heart seem true most of the time, and it's easy to believe them. But just like Jesus told the woman who was caught in sin, he doesn't condemn me either. He wants me to leave behind my mistakes and live a better life. As a believer in Jesus, he reminds me that I am righteous in his eyes. He doesn't see my flaws; he sees me as perfect. And with him by my side, I can overcome any attack on my heart. Jesus went to a special place called the Mount of Olives. One morning, he went to the temple where lots of people were gathered. He sat down and started teaching them. While Jesus was teaching, some religious leaders brought a woman to him. They said she had done something wrong called adultery, which means being unfaithful in marriage. They wanted to know what Jesus thought they should do to her because their law said she should be punished by being hit with stones. They were trying to trick Jesus, so he bent down and started writing something on the ground. When they kept asking him, he stood up and said, "The person who has never done anything wrong can throw the first stone at her." After hearing that, the religious leaders left one by one, starting with the older ones. Soon, only Jesus and the woman were left. Jesus asked her if anyone was left to accuse her. She said no. Then Jesus said he wouldn't punish her either, but he told her to stop doing wrong things. Dear Heavenly Father, I feel trapped in this situation, unsure of where to turn or how to escape. It seems like there's no way out, and I long for relief. Is there a way, Lord? Do you hear me, Jesus? I feel worthless, like I'm not good enough. My life feels like a constant disappointment to you. These days, even praying feels like a struggle. I'm exhausted and overwhelmed, consumed by feelings of disgust with myself. Yet, deep down, I know that you, Jesus, don't condemn me. It's me, judging myself relentlessly. I'm filled with anger and can't seem to align my thoughts with your Word. I humbly come to you, Father, asking for forgiveness. My sins feel like they reach the heavens, and I desperately need your mercy and pardon, Lord Jesus. I am lost without you. Please forgive me. I feel even lower than the woman caught in adultery, unable to even approach your presence. I feel dirty and unworthy of your love and faithfulness. Please, Lord, forgive me. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.

Finances

In the journey of life, finances play an integral role, often stirring up anxiety and stress with their mere mention. As one wise individual remarked, "the cost of living can indeed feel burdensome." Yet, in the face of such worry and fear, a shift is necessary. When our apprehensions drown out our faith, it signals a need for reevaluation. Though the course of life may steer beyond my control, I retain agency over my reactions, the readiness I maintain, and most importantly, the centrality of faith. Thus, I choose to turn my prayers toward the Divine, seeking clarity of mind and spirit to attune to divine guidance. Prayer: Gracious Father above, I am grateful for Your assurance to supply all my needs according to Your riches. When trials loom and concerns mount, may Your Word be my anchor. Your promise in Isaiah 54:17 resonates within me, declaring that no weapon formed against me shall prosper. With a focused resolve on my financial journey this year, I beseech You, Lord, for wisdom, fortitude, and resilience. Though challenges may arise, I hold steadfast to the unwavering trust in Your unfailing Word. Your mercies endure eternally, and in the sacred name of Jesus Christ, I offer this prayer. Amen.

God give me the power to become All You made me to be.

Grant me the strength, O God, to manifest the fullness of your design for me. As I venture into new territories, I am uncertain about the specific calling on my life, but I hold firm in the belief that divine revelation will illuminate my path. I sense that I am positioned where God intends, navigating within my sphere of influence, relying on His power to equip and unlock the doors ahead. In the grand tapestry of God's plan, I am not an incidental creation but crafted with a distinct purpose. Although the full scope of my purpose eludes me presently, I am steadfast in my conviction that it involves contributing positively to others and magnifying God's glory. I seek the spiritual mantle of God—grant me strength, humility, kindness, respect, and understanding, aligning me in the proper order of life. My sincere desire is to establish this divine order in every facet of my existence. Cognizant of the biblical directive that a woman should have a symbol of authority, I submit myself to divinely appointed figures of authority. May the Lord guide me into right relationships with those He has ordained to lead in my life. In the richness of God's grace, I find assurance that He has provided all things necessary for a life of purpose and godliness. I yearn to unravel the specific promises assigned to me, gaining clarity on my personal journey. The quest for truth about myself and discerning God's will propels me forward in my spiritual growth. Acknowledging the constant movement in life, I realize that I am either progressing or regressing. With the awareness that nothing is stagnant, I seek the Helper promised by Jesus, the Spirit of truth, to guide and testify to His presence in my life. Your Word declares, O Lord, that whoever believes in You will have rivers of living water flowing from their heart. I affirm my belief in You, eagerly anticipating the continuous flow of Your living water within and through me. As a spring is renewed with fresh water, I invite Your Holy Spirit to rejuvenate me today and every day that I draw breath. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I pray. Amen.
