THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:

Lord, how we love You, how we praise You, how we lift up Your holy and righteous Name.  We thank You Lord for opening our understanding to know, You are
the only true and living God.  God, this morning we thank You for
delivering Della Ford's mother from the hospital, we're praying that You
will continue to provide strength to Della and healing to her mom.  We
also pray for Della's friend's mother who is currently in the hospital,
asking that You will touch and heal her body.  Lord we thank You for
being faithful to us all the days of our lives and we are confident that
You will always be right here with us, leading, guiding, directing,
protecting and loving us no matter what.  We thank You Lord for today
and we purpose in our hearts right now to forget about the stuff that's
weighing us down and concentrate on being who You created us to be. 
It's a good day to show the world we love You, we love ourselves and
we're excited about living today.  We recognize the enemy is busy trying
to ruin our day and discourage us, but we thank You because we know,
greater are You Who lives in us, than he that is in the world.  We give
You praise for a wonderful day and we will let nothing distract us from
enjoying this beautiful day that You have made for our enjoyment, in
Jesus Name, Amen.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:

 

Our Father in heaven, God we praise You for another beautiful day of life.  We thank You for the rain, we thank You for the snow, we thank You for the wind, we thank You
for the cold; Often times we complain about these things, but God we
trust You, so we choose to praise You in the midst of it all.   God we
thank You for Your faithfulness, Your compassion, Your mercy, Your grace
and Your strength at work in our lives today.  Lord, we pray one for
another, asking You to give us the courage to trust You in
everything and not lean to our own understanding.  Give us the strength
to keep our hands off all means of taking our lives into our own
hands, and in everything continue to give thanks and praise unto You. 
God we believe You're able to do exceedingly abundantly above all we can
ask our think---We believe You God!   We thank You in advance for a
beautiful victorious day today, in Jesus Name, Amen. 

 
Blessings,

(THOUGHTS ON PRAYER: The Bible's Reasons Why We Should Pray)

 

 

For the Christian, praying is like breathing. It is easier to do it than to not do it. We pray for a variety of reasons. For one thing, prayer is a form of serving God (Luke 2:36-38) and obeying Him. We pray because God commands us to pray (Philippians 4:6-7). Prayer is exemplified for us by Christ and the early church (Mark 1:35; Acts 1:14; 2:42; 3:1; 4:23-31; 6:4; 13:1-3). If Jesus thought it was worthwhile to pray, we should also. If He needed to pray to remain in the Father’s will, how much more do we need to pray?

Another reason to pray is that God intends prayer to be the means of obtaining His solutions in a number of situations. We pray in preparation for major decisions (Luke 6:12-13); to overcome demonic barriers (Matthew 17:14-21); to gather workers for the spiritual harvest (Luke 10:2); to gain strength to overcome temptation (Matthew 26:41); and to obtain the means of strengthening others spiritually (Ephesians 6:18-19).

We come to God with our specific requests, and we have God's promise that our prayers are not in vain, even if we do not receive specifically what we asked for (Matthew 6:6; Romans 8:26-27). He has promised that when we ask for things that are in accordance with His will, He will give us what we ask for (1 John 5:14-15). Sometimes He delays His answers according to His wisdom and for our benefit. In these situations, we are to be diligent and persistent in prayer (Matthew 7:7; Luke 18:1-8). Prayer should not be seen as our means of getting God to do our will on earth, but rather as a means of getting God's will done on earth. God’s wisdom far exceeds our own.

For situations in which we do not know God's will specifically, prayer is a means of discerning His will. If the Syrian woman with the demon-influenced daughter had not prayed to Christ, her daughter would not have been made whole (Mark 7:26-30). If the blind man outside Jericho had not called out to Christ, he would have remained blind (Luke 18:35-43). God has said that we often go without because we do not ask (James 4:2). In one sense, prayer is like sharing the gospel with people. We do not know who will respond to the message of the gospel until we share it. In the same way, we will never see the results of answered prayer unless we pray.

A lack of prayer demonstrates a lack of faith and a lack of trust in God’s Word. We pray to demonstrate our faith in God, that He will do as He has promised in His Word and bless our lives abundantly more than we could ask or hope for (Ephesians 3:20). Prayer is our primary means of seeing God work in others' lives. Because it is our means of “plugging into” God's power, it is our means of defeating Satan and his army that we are powerless to overcome by ourselves. Therefore, may God find us often before His throne, for we have a high priest in heaven who can identify with all that we go through (Hebrews 4:15-16). We have His promise that the fervent prayer of a righteous man accomplishes much (James 5:16-18). May God glorify His name in our lives as we believe in Him enough to come to Him often in prayer.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER;

 

Oh Lord, we praise You!  Oh Lord, we praise You!  You are the source of our strength!  You are the strength of our lives, we lift our hands in total
praise to You!  God, we thank You for another beautiful day that You
have blessed us to see.  We thank You Lord because we recognize it's a
blessing and a privilege to have another chance to say yes to Your
will.  We ask that You will give us the courage to keep pressing our way
through and not grow weary in doing well, for we believe Your Word is
true, we shall reap a harvest of blessings if we faint not.  God, as we
enter the close of another year, we pray one for another, asking You to
open our understanding to the sowing and reaping process; Whatsoever we
sow, that shall we reap!  Give us the wisdom God to sow good seeds and
resist the temptation of the evil one to plant seeds of discourse,
hatred, envy, backbiting, and all other manners of evil.   In all that
we do help us to sow the seed of love, for by our love one to another
the world will know we belong to You.   God we thank You for our lives
and we shall live it this day to Your glory.  We thank You in advance
for the victory today, for we believe something good will happen to us
and through us this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

 
Blessings,

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:

 

Good morning Lord!  It's another good day that You have made, filled with
Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace and we thank You for blessing
us to still be here.  God, we're in the last week of 2010 and there are a
number of things we said we wouldn't do, that we did; And, there are a
number of things we said we would do, that we didn't do; And, already
we're saying what we're going to do and not do in 2011, but right now we
ask that You will help us to stop planning long enough to ask You what
You want.  Help us to remember how our plans messed things up, but when
we followed Your plan, we enjoyed Your peace and provision.  Father,
open our eyes that we may see where we're in control and give us the
courage to let go and let you have Your way in our lives.  Lord, help us
to admit our way brings confusion, turmoil, pain and strife, but Your
way brings happiness, peace, joy and contentment--Give us the strength
to place both hands on Your way and move forward.  Father we lift unto
you the Families of Bishop Ralph Salary and Dr. Lonnie Dawson, and we
ask this in Jesus Name, Amen.

 
Blessings,

A Monday Prayer

(By SpiitualOasis.org)

 

 

Dear Father in heaven,

As we begin another week of hurrying and scurrying about our busy lives, we pause to express our sincere praise of your majesty. We are amazed that the Creator of the Universe is mindful of each one of us and thankful that you are attentive to our needs.

 

We confess to you that we are intensely aware of our frailties and failings as humans. We also acknowledge that we are utterly dependent upon you for all that we have and all that we are able to do in this day….in every day. We ask you to help us deny ourselves, take up our crosses and simply follow Jesus so that we might live in such a way as to bring you honor and glory.

 

We humbly ask you to guide our steps throughout this week. Help us search for and find ways to serve as instruments of your peace in this tumultuous, sin-savaged world. Help us to be a blessing to others. Please help us choose actions that are just and merciful; and, fill us with your Holy Spirit that we might be empowered to walk humbly with you each step of the way.

 

Please bless those whose names flow from our hearts to your throne.

 

Provide for each of these according to their needs.

 

Accept our thanksgiving for your sustaining grace in our lives. Thank you for being the Giver of every good and perfect gift we have received. Help us to bring you pleasure by enjoying these gifts. Help us, also, to honor you by being good stewards of all you have placed in our care.

 

Above all, thank you for the indescribable gift of your Son to be our Lord and Savior. Please give us the faith, courage, grace and wisdom we need to follow in Him each and every day.

 

In the precious and powerful name of Jesus we pray.

 

Amen
