THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER
We praise You Oh Lord! We magnify Your Name! We worship You Oh Lord! Lord, we clap our hands in praise to You! You are the source of our strength and the strength of our lives, so we lift our hands in total praise to You! We look to You Lord, for You are the Author and Finisher of our faith. We look to You as we run the race that is set before us, for You are our inspiration. Your love to us inspires us to put the past behind us. Your love to us inspires us to want to be a blessing to someone else. Your love to us inspires us to keep pressing forward and believe we can make it against all odds. Your love to us inspires us to feel loved, be love and show love. Lord, we don't know what today holds, but we know You are the Great I Am and because You're holding our hands we will make it safely through. We pray one for another and especially for Apostle Rebecca Washington-Berry, Bishop Eldoris Bonner Bishop Ronald Stovall, Laurice Thomas, the Cooks Family, all our relatives and friends, asking You to give us the strength to lay aside all pettiness, be true to ourselves and everyone else. Help us to know we're still here for a reason and it is a waste of time holding grudges, it's a waste of time trying to make people see our point, it's a waste of time being jealous and envious; But rather it's time to forgive, it's time to live peaceably and it's time to go forth and show the world You through us. We are Designer's Originals, there is no one who can do what You created us to do. We shall go forth today and let our originality, our reflection of You shine, shine, shine in Jesus Name, Amen.

Dear Lord, we give all praises to the Almighty God! Great is the Lord and greatly are You to be praised! We thank You for one more beautiful day, filled with Your goodness, kindness, mercy, grace, and saturated with Your unconditional love to us. Lord, we welcome You today to be our Guide. We thank You in advance for staying close by our sides and we ask that You give us the wisdom to allow You to pilot us throughout this day. Help us to know You are the Chief Pilot and You do not need a co-pilot, nor do You need any help or advice from us, for You do all things well, all by Yourself. Give us the strength to do the work of being who You created us to be, the courage to love who You made us to be and the wisdom to appreciate our journey. There is nothing about our journey that has taken You by surprise, in fact, You planned on what You already know and Your plan is working all things together for our good. Help us to know where we are now is a stepping stone to where You have assigned for us to be. Lord we praise You because eyes have not seen, ears have not heard, neither has it entered into the heart of man the things You have prepared for us; The best is yet to come! We ask a special blessing for our children who are now back in school, build a hedge of protection all around them and keep them safe. We ask a special blessing on the teachers, administrators and other staff, praying that they purpose in thier hearts to be a blessing to each child in their care. It's a magnificent Wednesday and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Good morning Lord! Thank You for waking us to see another beautiful day. We thank You because it's good to give thanks unto the Lord and to sing praises to Your Name! You are so wonderful to us! You're everything we've ever hoped for, You're everything we need! You are so beautiful to us and we thank You for being our all in all. Lord, we pray one for another, asking that You will provide strength to the weak, healing to the sick, comfort to the lonely and deliverance to those who are bound by chains hindering them from letting go and moving forward. Bless each one to know it is in You we live, we move and have our being, and because of You we can have an attitude of, "I Can". Because of You there is nothing we can't conquer, there is no situation we can't overcome, there is no mountain we can't climb, no valley we can't go through. Because of You we can speak to that person we have been avoiding. Because of You we can forgive, we can love where hatred seems to rule. Because of You we can smile (in love) in the face of the one who continues to stab us in the back. Because of You we can realize our dreams. Hallelujah Jesus! We can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength. We declare today, we are children of the Most High God, the Reigning King and we shall think, walk and talk like the royalty we are; And we shall let nothing stop us from rejoicing and being glad in this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER
What a mighty God we serve! Angels bow before You, heaven and earth adore You! What a mighty God we serve!!! Thank You Lord for the blessing and privilege to be a part of another perfect day that You created. All of us can probably think of three things to complain about, three things we don't like, three people who have gotten on our nerves or three things we would change if we had the chance; But, instead we will praise You for three things: Life, health and strength. We are still alive and we thank You for every good and perfect gift, because we know they came from You. We thank You Lord because even the things we perceive to be bad, by faith we can call them good because You're mixing all things together with everything and causing it to be good. We're excited about today because we believe victory belongs to us. We're excited about today because we know there is no weapon formed against us that will prosper. We're excited about today because yesterday is gone and we have another opportunity to press forward into the things You have planned for us. We're excited about today because goodness and mercy is following us, but most importantly, You're with us everywhere we go! We're excited about today because no matter how great what we see may seem, greater is He Who lives in us, which automatically means we win!!! Victory, victory is ours, yes Lord!!! We give You praise for the victory today, victory for Apostle Berry, Victory for Bishop Stovall, Victory for Bishop Bonner, victory for the family of Bishop Walter Cooks, victory for all our family and friends near and far. Victory in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER
Good morning Lord! Thank You for blessing us to see another day. We are alive and well, lungs breathing, blood flowing, hearts beating and our brains are functioning well; For this Lord we give You praise. We praise You Lord because we recognize without You we couldn't breathe, without You our blood would stop flowing, without You our brains would be useless and our hearts would stop beating. We praise You Lord because we know it is in You that we live, we move, and have our being. Lord, You have made each one of us to be different, we are unique, wonderfully and beautifully made, help us today to appreciate who we are because of You. We may be a little down, some may be struggling, some may be sick,and we lift Apostle Berry unto YOU; some are experiencing bereavement, some are faced with difficult decisions---whatever our situations are today, lead us to the Rock, the Rock of our Salvation, knowing that Rock is Jesus and You are the Answer. Help us trust You even when it looks like things will never be right again and give us the strength to keep holding on to our faith, no matter what. Give us the courage to praise You in the middle of whatever our "it" is and believe there is a blessing on the other side of through, then hold on and go through. There is a lot going on, but nothing that's going on is Greater than the God we worship, so we will continue to worship You O Mighty God, because there is none like You. This is the day that our God has made and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank and praise You for waking us to another beautiful day. We thank You for Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. We thank You Lord for supplying all of our needs. Lord we thank You for revealing to us that You are the Great I Am and greatly are You to be praised. You're to be praised not just with our lips, but with the lives we live. We pray one for another, asking for a special blessing upon Apostle Rebecca Washington-Berry and the Gray Family, we're also asking that You will help us to remember people are listening to the words we speak and they are watching the things we do; Help us love enough to speak kind words and not let our actions point to malice, hatred, envy, strife, jealousy, rudeness or deceitfulness. We pray all we do, we do it to the glory of God. We pray that each one will make ourselves available to be used by You to make today better. Help us to have the attitude of, "Someone needs my smile today and I'm going to give it!" It's a great day today and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. Lord we thank You because You not only see the best in us, You bring out the best in us. We thank You Lord for growth, we're not where we want to be, but we offer praise to You because we're not where we used to be. This time last year we would have reacted to a negative situation by cursing, crying or getting even; But today we're praying, smiling and moving forward. We thank You Lord because we don't worry, fuss or complain as much as we used to--a change has come over us and we thank You because we know the more we surrender our lives to You, the more You're changing our lives and making all things new. We pray one for another, asking that You strengthen our desire to want to do better. Help us to see there is so much we go through on a day to day basis that we have control over--all we need to do is walk away. There is so much we listen to on a day to day basis that we should not be listening to, give us the strength to walk away. Give us the courage to walk away from disrespect and vulgarity; Help us to remember we are children of The King and we should not stay where we're not treated as royalty. We thank You Lord for Your unconditional love to us always and we pray for strength to share the love You so freely give to us. It's a great day today and we thank You in advance for the victory, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen. Pray for Apostle Berry!

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER
Good morning Lord! We begin this day saying, "It's good to know Jesus!" It's good to know You are our Rock, our Sword and Shield. It's good to know You are our Savior, Companion and Friend. It's good to know You are everything we need You to be, You are the Great I Am. Lord, we pray for each person who reads this email prayer, asking that You will draw us closer to You and that we will desire a closer walk with You. Help us to know it matters not what others say or do, but it's about our personal relationship with You. The world is filled with people who are openly expressing their opinions, feelings and claim to be facts, help us Lord to not be swayed by things that sound good, but instead purpose in our hearts to let our personal relationship with You be the guide. Give us the wisdom to take time out of our busy days to offer more praise to You, take time to worship You and take more time to meditate and listen for Your voice. There are many voices speaking right now, but Your sheep know Your voice, give us the wisdom to take the time to listen, hear and obey. Help us to know there is no special place we must go to talk to You, praise or worship You, there is no special place we must go to have a personal relationship with You, because everywhere we go You're already there. Everywhere we go You're right there with us, it is in You that we live, move and have our being. You promised to never leave us, help us remember today You're with us always and it's always good to recognize Your ever presence in our lives. It's a great day today and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name. Pray for Apostle Berry, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION AND PRAYER
GOD'S BOXES

I have in my hands two boxes, Which God gave me to hold. He said, "Put all your sorrows in the black box,
And all your joys in the gold." I heeded His words, and in the two boxes, both my joys and sorrows I stored.
But though the gold became heavier each day, the black was as light as before.
With curiosity, I opened the black, I wanted to find out why, And I saw, in the base of the box, a hole,
Which my sorrows had fallen out by. I showed the hole to God, and mused, "I wonder where my sorrows could be!"
He smiled a gentle smile and said, "My child, they're all here with Me."
I asked God, why He gave me the boxes, Why the gold and the black with the hole? "My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, the black is for you to let go."
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for the two boxes You have given us; we pray for the wisdom, courage and strength to know what to hold on to and what we must let go. You told us to cast our cares upon You for You care for us, help us Lord to trust You, and come to the realization that we are not strong enough to carry the pressures, concerns and cares of life. Help us to be convinced, Your grace is sufficient for us, for when we are weak, then are we strong--for Your strength is made perfect in our weakness. Father today, help us to let go and let You have Your way. We thank You for this beautiful day and we will rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.
