FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:

I ASKED GOD

 

I asked God to take away my habit.  God said, No.
It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.

I asked God to make my handicapped child whole.  God said, No.
His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary

I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, No. Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.

 I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No. I give you blessings; Happiness is up to you.

 asked God to spare me pain.
God said, No. Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.

I asked God to make my spirit grow.
God said, No. You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.

I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life!  God said, No.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.

I asked God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said...Ahhhh, finally you have the idea.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:

It's a new day and we thank You for opening our eyes to see it.  Lord we have so much to be thankful for, our health and strength, food and clothing, shelter and transportation, family and friends, peace and joy;  We thank You Lord for all You've done for us!   Thank You Lord for being our Rock, our Fortress, our Deliverer, our Healer, our Company Keeper, our Provider--We have discovered, everything we need You to be, The Great I Am steps in!  We love You Lord!  This is the day that You have made and we purpose in our hearts right now to let nothing cause us to forget You made this day.  We will let nothing steal our joy.  We will let nothing distract us from paying attention to Your voice.  We will let nothing cause us to act unbecoming of Your child.   We will let nothing keep us from rejoicing and being glad, no matter what.  Give us the courage today to do something nice to someone, say something encouraging to someone who is struggling and share our God-given smile with everyone we meet, we give You praise in Jesus Name, Amen.

 

For our children

 

Lord, thank You for blessing me to see this day that You have made.  Thank You for eyes to see, ears to hear, a mouth to talk, legs to walk and hands to reach out and touch everybody.  Lord, thank You for blessing me with everything I need, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Because of Calvary,

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:

We thank You Lord for this new day enveloped with Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace.  Thank You Lord for being our provider, our peace, our protection, our healer, our deliverer, our friend--Lord, You are everything we need You to be and we thank You for being the Great I Am.  Father, if things happened to get tough for us today, help us to remember Who You are and who we are because of You.   Help us to remember there is nothing too hard for You to do.  Help us to remember nothing gets to us before passing through You first, which simply means we can handle it because You will not permit us to go through anything we can not bear.   Increase our understanding so we will know in to each life some rain must fall because if we never had any rain, we would never grow.   So while the rain is falling, give us the wisdom to seek the purpose of the rain and know You're our umbrella.  Give us the courage to walk on by faith even if we get wet believing there is a rainbow at the end of the rain.  This is the day that You have made, we will let nothing stop us from rejoicing and being glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Lord, as we slept last night, You kept our lungs functioning properly and You made sure our hearts continue to beat.   Then this morning You caused us to hear an alarm clock, the sound of a loved one or a simple noise to let us know it was time to wake up--- Lord we thank You.   God, we thank You for life, health and strength.  We thank You for food, clothing and shelter.  We thank You for family, friends and acquaintances.  Lord, we have so much to be thankful for and although sometimes we complain, the truth is our good far outweighs the bad, so we thank and praise You right now for we know every good and perfect gift comes from You.  Father, we don't know what today will bring, but there is one thing we know for sure and that is, You already know and You've already planned on what You know.   Draw us closer to You and help us trust the fact that there is safety in Your arms; There is peace, love, contentment, rest, joy, protection, provision, healing, and deliverance---You have everything we need to be more than conquerors in every situation, thank You Lord.   We glorify and magnify Your Name because You are good all the time and all the time You are good!   Thank You Jesus!  Please remember the Graham Family.  Today is a good day and we praise You in advance for the victory today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

The passing of Gina Graham on Saturday, October 1, 2011 from the Class of 1976 from sickle cell is so sad. I will be keeping the Graham family in my prayers. R.I.P. Gina!

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Our Father in heaven, we thank You for waking our eyes to another brand new day.   We thank You for Your loving kindness and tender mercy.  We thank You Lord for always looking beyond our faults and seeing our need.    Father we stretch our hands to Thee, confessing there is no other help we know.  We stretch our hands to Thee to praise You.  We stretch our hands to Thee to worship You.  We stretch our hands to Thee to say, "Hold us and keep us safe"  We stretch our hands to Thee believing You are the Source of our strength and the peace in our life.   Lord, we're praying for Lois Gilmore, our mother Mercedes Snowden and our daughter Marty this morning, asking You to continue to provide strength as they go through the process of healing.   Father, we're praying one for another,  asking You to help us to remember Your Word, trust Your Word, have faith in Your Word and move forward because of Your Word.  This is the day that You made, we thank You in advance for keeping us throughout this day, and for helping us to remember You made today so You most certainly can handle today.  We trust You Lord and we will praise You in the midst of it all, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Because of Calvary,

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Our Father, our Lord, our Savior, our King, our God, our Friend we thank You for blessing us to see another day.  We thank You for the blessing and the privilege to talk to You as much as we desire all throughout the day.   Lord we thank You because each one of us can talk to You at the same time, You will hear us individually, You can answer us at the same time and we receive Your response individually.   How GREAT is our God!   Father we thank You because all the days of our lives we have not seen one day repeated, we have not taken the same breath and our heart continues to have a different beat----GREAT is Thy faithfulness!   This morning we're praying one for another, asking that You would place a hedge of protection around us, guard our hearts and minds from the attack of the enemy.  Help us to remember, although weapons may be formed against us, if we trust You they will not prosper.   Troubles, heartaches and pains may come, but give us the courage to keep trusting You and stand on Your promise that You will never leave us.   We praise You Lord for Your presence in our lives and we thank You for being the only constant we have, no matter what.   Help us this day to rest on Your promise, "And lo, I will be with you always" and walk on by faith, in Jesus Name, Amen.

 

 

For our children . . .

 

Good morning Lord!  Thank You for letting me see another pretty day.   Thank You for my family and for making sure I have everything I need.  Help me to be good today and keep my family safe, in Jesus Name, Amen.
