Our Father in heaven, we thank and praise You for blessing us to see another beautiful day. Father, right now we choose to begin this day "With God"and we choose to go throughout this day "With God". "With God" though things may seem impossible, you make all things possible. Help us to remember today no matter what comes our way and no matter who is against us, because You're with us, it's more than the whole world against us. With You we can smile while others are wearing a frown. With You we can take a deep breath and forget the one who cuts us off on the freeway. With You we can have patience with the one who normally works our nerves. With You we can work without stress. With You our speech will be seasoned with grace. With You a song of praise will always be in our hearts and on our lips. With You we can conquer anything, so we begin this day thanking You in advance for a victorious day! We're rejoicing and being glad in this day because we know You're with us and that means all things are possible if we would only believe. We love You Lord and we thank You for this great day filled with Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Because of Calvary,

You Can’t Please Everyone

An old fable that has been passed down for generations tells about an elderly man who was traveling with a boy and a donkey. As they walked through a village, the man was leading the donkey and the boy was walking behind. The townspeople said the old man was a fool for not riding, so to please them he climbed up on the animal’s back. When they came to the next village, the people said the old man was cruel to let the child walk while he enjoyed the ride. So, to please them, he got off and set the boy on the animal’s back and continued on his way. In the third village, people accused the child of being lazy for making the old man walk, and the suggestion was made that they both ride. So the man climbed on and they set off again. In the fourth village, the townspeople were indignant at the cruelty to the donkey because he was made to carry two people. The frustrated man was last seen carrying the donkey down the road.

We smile, but this story makes a good point: We can’t please everybody, and if we try we end up carrying a heavy burden. Well-meaning Christians may offer us advice, and much of it is valuable. But when we try to do everything other believers want us to do, we can easily become frustrated and confused. That’s why we need to remember that the One we must please above all others is Christ. And we do that by obeying God’s Word.

Carried any donkeys lately? You don’t have to if you’re trying to please Jesus.

Our Father, we thank You for blessing us to see another beautiful day. We thank You for waking us in our right mind--a mind to worship and praise the only true and living God. We thank You for providing our every need. We thank You for family and friends. We thank You for the things we call good and for the things we perceive to be bad, because all in all You work everything together for our good. It's a great day today and we pray one for another asking that You will give us the strength and courage to press past negativity. Negativity slows us down and causes us to be distracted. Negativity plays a big role in getting us to forget who we are and act in ways that are not becoming to children of the Most High God. Help us Lord to listen to Your voice in every situation and be careful to do as You say. Father, help us to love ourselves more and not insist on staying where we're not wanted, hanging where we're not respected or accepting treatment that we don't deserve. We are Designer's Originals, we're one of a kind. You loved us so much that You created only one of us and we're uniquely, beautifully and wonderfully made. God, You have done great things in our lives, help us to know You will continue to do as You always have, so it is not necessary for us to settle for any person, place or thing; But, it is ours to keep looking ahead dismissing negativity and expecting greatness. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Good morning Lord! We thank You for waking us this morning and reminding us of how great You are. Lord, we thank You for letting us know You are holy, faithful, righteous, loving, kind, and compassionate; Many of us have searched all over the world looking for the best, looking for completeness, looking for happiness, looking for peace, looking for contentment ---but the only thing we have found is there is NONE like You! Father, we thank You for loving us with everything that You are, we pray that each one who reads this prayer will commit to surrendering their lives to You and trust You enough to love You with heart, mind and soul. We ask for special prayer for Mother Mercedes Snowden. Help us to trust You enough to say, "I'm Yours Lord, everything I am, everything I'm not; I'm Yours and I'm available to be used by You". On this 4th day of the new year, some of us are slipping back into our old patterns of 2011 after saying, "I'm not going back", help us to know, the change does not come with the new year, the change has to begin within us. The change comes with a made up mind, a will to move forward and wisdom to call on You every time we think about going back. Strengthen our understanding so we know, our desire may be to move forward, but the enemy likes it better when we remain where we are; Hence, distractions will come, but we're thankful to You because greater is He Who lives in us, than he who lives in the world. Victory belongs to us today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Praise the Name of Jesus! You're our Rock! You're our Fortress! You're our Deliverer, in You O Mighty God do we trust! We thank You Lord for blessing us to see another magnificent day, graced with Your presence. Help us this day to remember You're everywhere we go and it makes no sense to not utilize Your ever presence in our lives. It makes no sense to not call on You when the hint of trouble comes. It makes no sense to go through sickness, heartache, pain, disappointment or trouble without seeking Your face and trusting Your deliverance. Lord, this morning we're interceding on the behalf of Charles Crawford, asking that You will move mightily with Your healing touch. We pray one for another, especially Apostle Rebecca Washington Berry, Dr. Claudetta Williams and Dr. Aldina Washington, asking that You will bless each one of us with the touch from You we stand in the need of. We thank You Lord because we know whatever we need, You can provide. We thank You Lord because we know, even if You don't move in our lives the way we ask, it does not mean You can't, it means it's best. Give us the courage to always trust You enough to know You're always working all things together for our good, and if it's for our good it's what's best for us. Strengthen us to truly trust You more and more each day of our lives. It's a beautiful day today and we will rejoice and be glad in it, no matter what, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Good morning Lord! O what a beautiful morning it is! Thank You for opening our eyes to see another beautiful day. Wow, 2011 is almost gone and many of us are saying, "Where did the time go?" We've had good times, bad times, happy times, sad times, wasted time and regretful times; There were times we wanted to give up, times we wished would never end, times we should have listened--we could go on and on about yesterdays times, but the fact of the matter is, they're over and done with and it's time to move forward. It's time to let go of yesterday and trust You in our todays. We thank You Lord for 2011, for if it had not been for You we would not have made it. We look to the last days of 2011 and all of 2012 by faith, expecting the GREAT and we're not settling for anything less. We are Our Father's children and nothing the enemy whispers in our ears is believable, because we believe God! We believe in every situation You're right there with us, working all things together for our good. We may experience some tough days, but we thank You in advance for being with us and making those days bearable. We love You Lord! We praise You Lord! We thank You Lord! We bless You Lord! We worship You Lord! We adore You Lord! In Jesus Name, Amen.

Our Father in heaven, we thank and praise You for blessing us to see another day. You have blessed us to see 361 days in 2011, and every second, every minutue, every hour of each one of those days You have been faithful. You kept Your Word and stayed with us, no matter what. No matter what You extended Your grace and mercy to us. No matter what Your love to us remained unconditional. For 361 days this year, everything we needed Your faithful hand has provided; The fact of the matter is all of us can multiply 365 x our age and come up with thousands of days that You have remained the same faithful God in our lives. Great is Your faithfulness!! We pray that each one who reads this prayer will recognize how great You are and learn to lean and depend on You for everything. Help us to remember the last time You moved on our behalf and recognize based on Your reputation in our lives, it's time to start shouting right now for every victory we EXPECT to experience. We pray that each one is reminded, without faith it is impossible to please You--FAITH, not whining, fussing, complaining and crying, FAITH moves the hand of God! We trust You Lord and we stand on tip-toe anticipatation expecting the great beginning now. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
