THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we begin this day giving You praise, Hallelujah Jesus! We bless Your Name and shout out, "Thank You Jesus for one more day!" You have blessed us with one more day to praise Your Name, one more day to worship and adore You, one more day to draw closer to You, one more day to forgive our brother or sister, one more day to let go of grudges, one more day to choose to say no to our will and yes to Your will; Thank You Lord for one more day. We pray that each one comes to the realization that tomorrow is not promised, people are dying everyday, all we know we have is right now, so right now is the time to get it right with You. Right now is the time to stop insisting we know what's best for our lives. Right now is the time to stop running from You and start chasing after You. Lord bless each person that feels a void to know it can only be filed by You and right now is the time to surrender to You. It's a great day today and we shall not be distracted by the way things look to us, but instead we will give You a "right now" praise, because we know You're behind the scene working all things together for our good. Help us to know when things are 'worked together' it will not always feel good to us, but it's ours to trust You in all things, and believe Your grace and mercy will see us through. We give You praise for the victory today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for our life, health and strength. We thank You for watching over us throughout the night and waking us to a new day filled with Your grace and mercy. We praise You Lord for all that You've done for us; And, we worship You for Who You are, confessing there is none like You. No one else can touch our hearts like You do. No one else can love us like You do. No one else can cover us and protect us like You do. No one else can provide for us like You do, so we worship You Almighty God because there is none like You! We pray one for another, asking You to bless each one with the blessings we stand in need of, and help us to know You know better what we need. We can ask You for what we want, but help us accept the fact, what we want is not always what we need and You promised to supply our every NEED. Help us to know what we need is not always what we want, but if You say we need it, it's what's best for us. Lord, we say we trust You, but where we lack help us to trust You more and more each day. We praise You Lord for this beautiful day that You have made and we declare by faith we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Our Father in heaven, we thank You for blessing us to see another day. We thank You Lord for Your grace and mercy, for recognize it's because of You that we're still living, we're still moving around, and we still have our right mind. Lord, we thank You because things are as well as they are, there is so much that "could be" and there is so much that "could've happened", but Lord You blessed us to be where we are and we thank You. We don't know what today holds, but we praise You Father because we know You hold today. Lord, this morning we're asking that You help us let go and let You have Your way in our lives. Help us to know in order to let go we have to open our hands in submission to You, which means we don't have a choice in what we let go and what we hold on to, but it has to be Your way. We make plans everyday, we desire to see things go certain ways and often times we believe we're doing what's best for us, but help us today to know, we see right now, but You see beginning to end, and You plan on what You know. Father, we're letting go of our plan today and we're going with Your perfect plan. We declare by faith, something good will happen to us today and we praise You because today is the first day of the best days of our lives, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for waking us to see another day. We thank You for a wonderful weekend and we look forward to a victorious week. Bless each one to know You are the Great I Am and You're always on Your post. We may not see Your hand moving, but You're always working all things together for our good. Help us to accept the fact, sometimes things seem to get worse before they get better, but if we wait on You, You will renew our strength, mount us up with wings as eagles; we'll run and not be weary, and walk and not faint. Help us to know waiting on You is not sitting passively doing things our way, but it is continuing to seek and rely on You instead of our own strength. We thank You Lord that when we're weak, if we rely on You, You'll give us strength to do as eagles and soar over life circumstances and situations. Lord, there is nobody greater than You, and more than any other relationship, we need a closer relationship with You. Father, we praise You for drawing us to You, bless each one to not become discouraged and pursue a closer relationship with others, but instead everyday chase after You and come to know we need You more than material things, more than people in our lives, more than fame and fortune we need You. We need You to lead, guide and direct our path, so that everywhere You have prepared a blessing for us--we'll walk right to it. We give You praise in advance for the blessings You have prepared today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION AND PRAYER
Struggle a Little - Then Fly!
.
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly, that he brought home. One day a small opening appeared he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours. It struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther. So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The butterfly then emerged easily, but, it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings. He continued to watch the butterfly, he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and the body would contract. Neither happened!
In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It was never able to fly.
The man acted with well-intentioned kindness but he didn't understand the consequences. The restricting cocoon and the struggle required to get through the tiny opening, were nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If we were to go through life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as we could have been and we could never fly.
So the next time you are faced with an obstacle, a challenge, or a problem, remember the butterfly. Struggle a little - then fly!
Lord, we thank You for this another day that You have blessed us to see. God, we don't know what this day holds for us, but the one thing we are certain of is, the Lord our God is strong and mighty and mighty in battle; Help us to remember the battle is not ours, but it belongs to You. Lord, we're praying one for another asking that You will strengthen those who are in a struggle now, bless those who just came through a struggle and prepare those who are approaching a struggle. Father, whatever our position is to the struggle, we thank You because struggles, challenges, problems and obstacles come to make us lean and depend on You more. So, we thank You Lord for the struggles in our life and we declare by faith, we will come through stronger, better and wiser. Hallelujah Jesus! We will fly, in the Name of Jesus, Amen.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for blessing us to see another day. We praise Your Name Jesus because You're our Rock, our Fortress, our Deliverer and we're learning to trust You more and more each day. Lord, this is the day that You made, help us to know because You made this day there is NOTHING about this day that You cannot handle. There is nothing about this day that will take You by surprise; So Lord, since You know all about this day when things come up today that we don't understand, we'll talk to You first, then we'll trust You to lead, guide and direct our path. We'll trust You Lord to give us what we need to handle all that comes up today. We're praying for the youth all over the land, as they prepare for the Summer we pray that You will place a hedge of protection all around them, guard their hearts and minds against the attack of the enemy. Bless each one who reads this prayer, draw us closer to You so we will know Your voice, come familiar with Your ways and recognize the tricks and schemes of the enemy. Give us a praying spirit so we will talk to You all the time about everything, and help us to know if our desire is to please You we have to let go of our way and trust Your way. We give You praise and we thank You in advance for the victory today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, for Your grace and mercy we say, thank You! For blessing us to see this beautiful Wednesday morning we say, thank You! For supplying all of our needs we say, thank You! We ask that You forgive us of our sin and help us to remember once You forgive us, that's it, that's all. Man often times will hold things against us, bring up our past and try to keep us hostage to our mistakes, but we praise You Lord because no matter what man sees in us, You always see the best in us, thank You Lord. We pray a special prayer for Brandon Wilborne, and Thomas Brinkley Sr., Apostle Rebecca Berrry and Bishop Ronald Stovall, and the family of Bishop Conward, who transitioned on Friday to be with the Lord.. We also pray one for another, asking You to bless each one with the courage to live today in love. Loving ourselves, loving those around us, loving those who mistreat us, loving those who upset us; For You told us by this shall all men know we're Your disciples if we have love one to another. Help us to remember loving is not an option, but all circumstances and situations are reason to love on purpose, because You said so. Let us declare today, this little light of mine I'm going to let it shine. It's going to shine in ours home, our neighborhoods, our schools, at work, driving in our cars, walking down the streets, waiting on the bus--everywhere we go and in all that we do, we're going to shine, shine, shine! We thank You Lord for giving us our joy and for letting us know the joy of the Lord is our strength. We're going forth today strong in the Lord and in the power of Your might and having done all we shall stand. We give glory to You Lord, in Jesus Name, Amen.

TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. We thank You for keeping us throughout the night and waking us this morning to see a brand new day. We thank You Lord for another chance to say yes to Your will. We thank You for another chance to forgive, another chance to let go and allow You to have Your way in our lives. Lord, we pray one for another, praying that we come to the realization that our victory lies in our praise. Help us to know it's an individual thing, we can pray and pray one for another, but it is our faith that will make us whole. Help us to know our faith does not need to be increased; we simply need to use the mountain moving faith we have. Lord, today help us resist the temptation to find fault in someone else; Help us say no to discussing another's business and instead shine the light on ourselves. Help us to see the areas we're lacking in and do something about it. Help us to not give up and say, "I can't" for Your Word tells us we can do all things through Christ Who gives us the strength. Your Word tells us in all things we are more than conquerors "through" Him that loved us. Help us today to go "through" with You Lord and declare by faith, we win! We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for the blessing and privilege to see one more day. We thank You Lord for Your new mercy today, the fact of the matter is, all the days of our lives we have experienced new mercy--great is Thy faithfulness! All the days of our lives we have been the recipient of Your unconditional love --great is Thy faithfulness! Hallelujah Jesus, You're worthy to be praised! We lift our hands to praise You Lord and we bow our heads to honor You, because there is none like You! We pray one for another, asking You to help those of us who have memory issues to remember, You are the same yesterday, today and forever more, You change not; And, just as You have always taken good care of us, You will take care of us now. Help us to remember no matter how great our issues may seem to us, You are greater, so it's not time to ignore You and concentrate on our issues, but it's time to praise You in advance for working it out for our good. We’re going forth today believing no weapon formed against us shall prosper. We’re going forth declaring our mind is made up, we are Designer’s Originals and we deserve nothing but the best. We shall not settle for mediocrity, but we’re expecting only the best! We’re going forth declaring our mind is made up, we shall let nothing and no one hinder us from rejoicing and being glad in this great day that You have blessed us to see, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION
SPEAK OUT

Begin each day declaring who you are. Who are you? You are created in the image of God. He loves us so much that He breathed a part of Him into us. As we think back on how this world came into existence we must remember, God used His Word, He spoke and it was so . . .

In the morning when I rise, I speak, “it’s a good day today!”
· I speak, “It is because of the Lord’s mercies that I’m not consumed, because His compassion's fail not. They are new every morning, great is Thy faithfulness!” (Lam 3:22,23)
· I speak, “Greater is He Who lives in me than he who lives in the world” – (I John 4:4)
· I speak, “No weapon formed against me this day shall prosper” – (Isa 54:17)
· I speak, “I have the peace that surpasses all understanding” – (Phil 4:7)
· I speak, “I am who God says I am, I am more than a conqueror through Christ Jesus Who loves me” – (Rom 8:37)

Wouldn’t you know it, just when I think it’s going to be a great day, a situation comes that has the potential of shaking me,
· I speak, “Who shall separate me from the love of God –shall this situation? “No!” (Rom 8:35)
· I speak, “If God be for me, who can be against me!” --(Rom 8:31)
· I speak, “I will trust in the Lord with all my heart and lean not to my own understanding” –(Prov 3:5)
· I speak, “This is the day that the Lord has made; I will rejoice and be glad in it, no matter what!” --(Psa 118:24)

It’s lunch time, but my appetite has suddenly vanished, because my troubles have left me sad, worried and doubting if I will ever get to the other side of through
· I speak, “The joy of the Lord is my strength” – (Neh 8:10)
· I speak, “Thou will keep me in perfect peace, because I trust God” – (Isa 26:3)
· I speak, “Without faith, it is impossible to please God” – (Heb 11:6)
· I speak, “God, I’m casting all my cares to You, because I know You care” –(I Pet 5:7)

When a disagreement arises with a family member or friend
· I speak, “Love is patient, love is kind –I choose love” – (I Cor 13:4-7)
· I speak, “God is not the author of confusion, but of peace” – (I Cor 14:33)
· I speak, “By this shall all me know that we are His disciples, if we have love one to another”
– (Jhn 13:35)
· I speak, “Let brotherly love continue” –(Heb 13:1)

Awe, the night is here and it seems another day has gone by and God has not answered my prayer
· I speak, “They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength.” (Isa 40:31)
· I speak, “God, Your thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are Your ways my ways” –(Isa 55:8)
· I speak, “I know, God causes all things to work together for my good” –(Rom 8:28)
· I speak, “God, continue to speak to me while I slumber and sleep”. – (Psa 121:4)
· I speak, “Eyes have not seen, nor ear heard, neither entered into the heart of man, the things God has prepared for me” ---(I Cor 2:9) ---

“So Lord, I speak, “I look forward to tomorrow, the first day of the best days of my life!”

All day long I “speak out” His Word. After all, He gave us His Word to use, so as long as my situation is not bigger than God speaking the heavens and the earth into existence, I believe I’ll use what He used, speak out His Word and expect victory is mine today!

Thank You God for giving us Your Word!
