Hello, OH MOST HIGH GOOD! It's another beautiful day that You have opened our eyes to see, our ears to hear, our mouths to speak, our noses to smell and we are so glad about it. God, this morning we just want to thank You for all You've done for us. We want to tell You, "We love You Lord and we won't take it back, because You have been so very good to us!" Lord, some of us don't feel the best, we don't have all we want, things are not as well as we would like for them to be and sometimes honestly Lord, it's hard to wear a smile; But God, we must admit all of our good outweighs our bad and we don't want to complain, so we ask that You will help us remember the good today. Help us to remember You've been with us through the good and bad; Help us to remember You've always supplied our needs; Help us to remember the last time we thought we wouldn't make it, but You stepped right in on time and gave us a reason to smile and the strength to keep pressing forward. Lord, we have family and friends all around us, but help us to remember You are our very best friend and God we need You every second, every minute, every hour of this day and we know, as long as You're with us all things are being worked together for our good. We call today "GOOD" right now in the mighty Name of Jesus!!! We offer praise to You and we will worship You with our lives, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Good morning Lord! Thank You for doing it again! You blessed us to see another day, again. You watched over us throughout the night and kept us safe, again. You showered us with Your grace and mercy, again. You made another beautiful day, again. We praise You Lord because over, and over, and over, You keep doing great things for us. We worship You Lord for Who You are --You are our provider. You are our peace. You are our protection. You are our friend. You are our comforter. You are our deliverer. You are our light. You are all the world to us and we thank You for being our everything. God, all the days of our lives You have been faithful, You have never let us down, thank You Jesus! Help us this day to walk and talk like we're Your grateful children. No fussing, no complaining, no gossiping, no backbiting, no talking or looking down on anyone; But instead help us to see the good in every situation and give us the courage to speak well of You by speaking well of Your people. Help us to give that encouraging word to the one who feels there is no way out; A smile to the one who believes they have nothing to smile for; A hug to the lonely and confused. We praise You in advance Father for giving us what it takes to have a great day, we're rejoicing and looking forward to being a blessing to someone else. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
For our children . . .
Good morning Lord! Thank You for waking us up this morning. Thank You for not letting anything happen to us last night. Thank You for always giving us everything we need and we already thank You for a great day today, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Lord, You are good and Your mercy endures forever! We worship You for Who You are!! Thank You Lord for being good all the time! Thank You Lord for waking us to see another brand new day. It's a good day because You made it and we purpose in our hearts right now to let nothing stop us from rejoicing and being glad in it. We recognize our adversary the devil is roaming to and fro searching for who he can destroy, searching for who he can discourage, searching for who he can use to distract us; But God we praise You because greater is He who lives in us than he who is in the world! Help us this day to remember the Great One lives inside of us, which automatically makes us winners. Help us to know it's good to know Who You are, but still we must use what You've given us to use, we must do what You've told us to do, we must say what You've told us to say, in order to gain the victory. Lord, bless each one who reads this prayer with the strength we need to keep moving forward. Open our understanding so we will know who should stay and who should go and not insist on thinking they should stay because we need them. Help us to not value any opinion more than we trust Your Word. Lord we thank You for each life You've created, but help us to remember You created each life for Your glory and not for our praise, it's all about You Jesus! We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
For our children . . .
Thank You Lord for watching over us last night and for waking us up to see another day. We thank You for food to eat, clothes to wear, a house to live in and family and friends all around us. Help us today to remember how blessed we are because You always make sure we have everything we need, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Today I will honor God by breathing in deeply exhaling slowly stretching my limbs feeding my body healthy food and plenty of water
I will honor God in the simple actions of my day by smiling at a stranger helping where I can by laughing sharing by taking time to listen
I will honor God by respecting myself by recognizing myself in my neighbor
I will honor God with my love with my thoughts in the easy of my day
________________________________________
God, we honor You today by being who You created us to be and doing all that You've assign for us to do today. We will share with all the gift that doesn't cost us a thing, and that is our God given smile. You have made today great and we shall rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Our Father in heaven, we thank You for waking us to see another day. We thank You for Your loving kindness and Your tender mercies. We thank You Lord for always looking beyond our faults, our mess and mishaps and seeing the best in us. We thank You Lord for making us who we are, for making us perfect just the way we are; Help us to see You are our Creator and You made us just the way You wanted us and it matters not how others think we should be -- We are beautifully and wonderfully made, marvelous are Your works! Give us the courage to be more concerned about what You know about us and less concerned about what people think they know about us. If there's a problem, situation or concern, help us to know You are the answer and it's always best to consult You first. God, be glorified in our lives today and open our understanding so we will know, the more You're glorified the better it is for us. Lord, please remember my daughter Deneen and her family as they mourn the transitioning of her husband Martin, give them the strength to celebrate his Home going Celebration on Wednesday.We give You praise in advance for a wonderful day filled with blessings and victory, in Jesus Name, Amen.
For our children . . .
Our Father in heaven, thank You for giving us a bed to sleep in, a house to live in, food to eat, clothes to wear, family and friends to love us. Thank You for this day and i ask that You will help me to do my best in everything I do. Bless my family and keep us safe, in Jesus Name, Amen.
O Lord, our God we thank You for our life, our health and our strength. We may have aches and pains, financial issues, broken hearts and troubled minds, but we thank You because we're still here to experience it all. The fact that we're still here means we still have work to do, so we asked that You will give us the strength and courage to press through the pain, press through the financial issues, press through the broken heart and troubled mind, press through the sickness--press through believing there is a blessing on the other side of through. Help us to know that praising You in advance for our victories is the fuel we need to press through. Worrying and complaining slows us down, worshiping and praising the Most High God renews our strength and gives us what we need to make it through. Help us to remember You made this day and nothing about this day will take You by surprise, You can handle it all. If by chance something happens that catches us by surprise, remind us to quickly call on the One Who's not surprised at all, the One Who knew it was coming and already has a plan in motion to work it together for our good. It's a great day today and by faith we shall look at our situations and call them good; We shall purpose in our hearts right now to rejoice and be glad in this day through it all. We pray for the Bartley, Cade, Reed, and Sweed families in the passing of their loved ones; we pray for strength and mercy to cover and undergird them in Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord, we love You, we praise You and we purpose in our hearts right now to rejoice and be glad in this beautiful day that You made just for us. Lord, this morning we're praying for the family of Madeline Paul, who are saddened by her passing and we're praying for Ed Dugas and family as they deal with the sadness of the passing of his mother. Father, we thank You that both families are able to celebrate their loved ones passing because they know You have them with You. Lord, grant them peace and give them what they need to make it through each day. Bless each one who reads this prayer, help us to know it is better to trust and obey You, than to take matters in to our own hands. Help us to know we'll mess it up, but You'll fix it up and call it good. Give us the courage to make that faith move and say "thank You" before You make that mighty move in our lives. We acknowledge the enemy is busy, but we will not be distracted, we're going to stay focused and keep looking at You, expecting You to do great things. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

We thank You for waking us to see today, another day that we've never seen before. We thank You Lord because all the days of our lives we have never seen one day repeated, great is Thy faithfulness. Lord, we thank You for protecting us when we didn't know we were in danger. We thank You for loving us when it seemed all love was gone. We thank You for always providing for us, even when You knew we wouldn't say thank You. Father, there is so much going on around us right now and sometimes Lord we get a little weary, sometimes we worry, fuss and complain, sometimes we think our way is the best way; But Lord You know it all and You understand, so we thank You Lord. Lord, we lift unto You, the families of Madeline Paul, Della Ford, and Lonzo Williams; give them the Wisdom to know that you are too Good to be mean, and too Wise to make a mistake. Help them to understand Your WILL is good and just in all Its Ways. Give us the strength and courage this day to not dwell on the negative, but hold to the positive fact that You promised to never leave us. You're with us always through it all and You have never let us down, so even while we're waiting to see the manifestation of Your hand in our lives, we will trust You. We give You praise for this beautiful day and we will rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.
This is the day that the Lord has made, we begin this day by saying, "Thank You Lord!" We purpose in our hearts right now to rejoice and be glad in this day, no matter what. Lord, if we by chance get weak, if we stumble or happen to forget who we are in You, remind us of the fact that we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus. Help us to remember, although weapons may be formed against us they will not prosper. Help us to remember we can do all things through Christ Who gives us the strength. We can walk away from negative situations, we can keep moving forward, we can put the past behind us, we can show love one to another, we can rejoice in the Lord always, we can be peacemakers. We can because You're with us and Your presence in our life is more than the whole world against us. Help us this day to think on good thoughts and season our speech with grace and love. You are an awesome God and we praise You for making us who we are and for giving us everything we need. We're rejoicing, we're praising and we're thanking You in advance for the many victories we will experience this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.
O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! The Name of Jesus is the sweetest Name we know. The Name of Jesus is the most powerful Name we can call. The Name of Jesus brings a smile to our face. The Name of Jesus calms our fears and soothes our doubts. Thank You Lord for the blessing and the privilege to be able to call Your Name and expect results. We thank You Lord for making another perfect day and for blessing us to still be here to see the bright sunshine. We thank You Lord for Your grace and mercy. We thank You Lord for always providing everything we need, You are a great provider! Open our eyes to see it's You Who's keeping us alive and we owe You our lives. Forgive us for being selfish by insisting on doing things our way. Forgive us for not thinking it's important to glorify You in all we say and do. Forgive us for not taking what You have assigned for us to do serious. Forgive us for using the gifts You have given us to use only when we feel like it. Lord, in spite of the many times we have let You down, You continue to have mercy on us and give us another chance to say yes to Your will, we thank You Lord. Today is a great day to put the past behind us and move forward, determined to let our light shine by being who You called us to be. Thank You Lord for the first day of the best days of our lives, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Our Father, we thank You for another day of life filled with Your love and laced by Your mercy. We thank You for Your everlasting all-sufficient love, for truly Your love to us is amazing and we thank You for always loving us unconditional. We pray one for another asking You to help us accept Your love to us and know because You love us, You will always do what's best for us. Help us to know because You love us You will permit some things to happen in order to shape us, in order to direct us, in order to instruct us, in order to prune us and make us better. Your love to us causes us to grow and become determined to give You the glory in all that we say and do. Help us to know it's not about us, but it's about the one who is watching us, the one who is looking for Light in a world filled with darkness, give us courage to forget about what we're going through and let our light so shine in the world. Let it shine so men, women, boys and girls can see our good works and glorify our Father in heaven. Increase our understanding so we will know the more we glorify You, the sooner what we're going through will become "gone through". We begin this day smiling and giving You the praise, we're determined to let our light shine this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Our Father in heaven, we thank and praise You for blessing us to see another Monday morning. A lot of us are dragging and really not wanting to go to work this morning, but Lord we thank You for a place of employment to drag ourselves to. Some of us aren't feeling well this morning, but Lord we thank You for keeping us here to know how we feel. While still there are others who are grouchy, acting as if they hate life and everyone in it, help them to know things could be worse than what they think they are right now. God, we all have so much to be grateful for and we pray one for another in hopes that we will take the time out today to thank and praise the only true and living God. We're praying that we make a special effort to speak to someone we haven't spoken to in a while. A special effort to offer a smile to each person we come in contact with. A special effort to recognize the beauty You strategically placed in our day. A special effort to appreciate the gift of friendship. A special effort to be thankful for our family. A special effort to be grateful for our lives. Today is a good day to be thankful to be alive, so we begin this day rejoicing, smiling and loving life! We give You praise in Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord, You are holy. You are righteous. You are faithful. You are sovereign. You are mighty. You are loving. You are kind. You are compassionate. You are awesome.

We pray one for another, asking that You will heal the sick, comfort the bereaved, strengthen the weak, give courage to the weary and help us all to lean and depend on You for whatever we're standing in the need of.

We worship You Almighty God, there is none like You. Thank You Lord for blessing us to see this day, it's another day that we have never seen before.

When sickness creeps in, we thank You for assuring us that You are the Great Physician. When doubt tries to crawl in, we thank You for Your reputation in our lives to remind us that You've done it before and because You're the same yesterday, today and forever, You will do it again. Father, there are some who are experiencing trying times, help them to remember the last time You brought them out and give them a praying-praising spirit. Give them a "shout-right-now" faith, thanking You in advance for the victory. We pray a special prayer for VetaOden, asking You to move mightily in her life and grant healing, we ask also for strength, healing, and steadfastness for Apostle Rebecca Washington-Berry; speak to her heart and give her the assurance that the vision is yet true and the time is now to run with it..

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.
Good morning O Mighty, Holy, Righteous, Sovereign, Loving, Merciful God! It's a new day and we thank You for blessing us to still be here. We thank You for Your mercy and grace. We thank You for revealing Yourself to us. We thank You for choosing and using us. We thank You Lord for making us just the way You want us. We pray one for another, asking that You will help us to accept who we are in You and be glad about it. Give us the courage to be ourselves and the wisdom to not want to be like anyone else, because being like anyone else would be robbing the world of knowing the perfect "ME" that You created. Thank You Father for smiling on us every day of our lives. Open our understanding so we will know You're with us everywhere we go and You with us is more than the whole world against us. You with us means victory. You with us means peace. You with us means needs supplied. You with us means loved always. You with us means a very present help always available to us. You with us means we can always wear a smile because we're always in great company. Thank You Lord for always being with us. We shall live this day in perfect peace because we know You are with us and no weapon formed against us shall prosper. We praise You Lord for a great day today, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Good morning Lord! We thank You for another beautiful perfect day that You have made just for us. We thank You for a wonderful day yesterday and we look forward to a victorious day today. Lord, we're praying one for another, we ask for a special prayer for Mother Barbara Hayes, the mother of Carlos(the Mobile Mechanic) and Apostle Berry, Bishop Bonner and our family and loved ones; we're asking You to give strength to the weak, comfort the lonely, give courage to the doubters and help us all remember we belong to the Most High God and that automatically makes us winners! Keep us reminded today that Your Word tells us we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus Who loves us and You always keep Your Word. Let us walk in who You have called us to be, relying on You to lead, guide and direct our paths; Believing we are Designer's Originals, no one can beat us being who You created us to be. We are beautifully and wonderfully made, marvelous are You works--we're going forth today walking in greatness because greater is He that lives in us, than he that lives in the world. Whatever comes our way today, You are greater and we belong to You, so we win! We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Help us to trust You enough to come to You before we complain, before we fuss, before we worry, before we doubt, before we get angry, before we get frustrated--Coming to You first saves us needless pains to bear. Open our understanding so we will know Your Word is true and Your promises are sure. Whatever we're lacking today, help us to know we have not because we asked not. We thank You for this day, we're going forth praising You for all that You've done and expecting You to take good care of us as You always have, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Lord, because of Your many wonderful blessings, with everything that we have we shout out, hallelujah!!! This morning even if we can think of something to complain about, we won't, but instead we'll just say, "Thank You Lord!" We're praying one for another, asking that You will bless each one with a great memory. Help us to remember all the many times You've come through for us and believe that You will continue to be our faithful God, without any help from us. We ask a special comforting touch for Pastor Bruce Shaw as he grieves the passing of his mother. Father, comfort him and his family and grant them peace. Hallelujah Jesus, You're worthy to be praised all day, no matter what comes our way help us to choose this day to praise You. We purpose in our hearts right now to trust You enough to rejoice and be glad in this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.
The other day I was driving behind a truck carrying, I don't know the technical word for them, but they were big pieces of wood that look like hugely over-sized spools for cotton, except builders use them for wire. You know what I'm talking about. Anyway the truck was carrying about twelve of them and it hit a bump and one of them fell off. I watched this big...thing roll super fast toward me. I swerved as did the few cars beside and behind me. Then as it passed me I saw it hit a bump and go over into the opposing traffic. As it passed I prayed and prayed that it wouldn't hit a vehicle, that it would somehow stop and those traveling near it would be safe.
I thought about this because in the moment I am inspired to encourage you as stones roll toward you and pass you to remember to keep praying because the stone may still be in motion. Because it didn't hit you doesn't mean that someone else is not in the path. Keep praying. Go slowly today. Breathe deeply. Love yourselves and mean it.
Lord, we thank You for blessing us to see another day. We thank You for the reminder to keep praying and showing love one to another. We ask Your comforting touch on Nadine Starks and family as they grieve the passing of her mother. Bless each one who reads this prayer with the blessings we're standing in the need of, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
MONDAY MORNING PRAYER: Good morning Lord! We're excited about this new day that You have blessed us to see. We're excited about the endless possibilities this day holds. We're excited about the benefits that are available to us, all because we belong to the only true and living God. God, we're excited because You love us and we mean the world to You. We're excited because nothing shall separate us from Your love. We're excited because Your love to us is more than the whole world against us. We're excited because no matter how great our troubles may be, greater are You Who lives in us and that makes us more than conquerors in all things. Help us to get our minds right and concentrate on Who we belong to and who we are because of You. Because of who we are in You, we're going forth today believing we can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength. We can conquer anything. We can let go and move on. We can forgive. We can ignore attempts to bring us down. We can show love where there is hate. We can, we can, we can!!! Because the joy of the Lord is our strength!!! Father, we pray a special prayer for Carol Junior as she prepares to enter the operating room, draw her closer to You and help her to remember she belongs to You. Thank you for returning Apostle Berry and Bishop Bonner to us and blessing them on their journey. Move mightily on their behalf in the Name of Jesus! Thank You Lord for the blessing and privilege to pray, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Our Father in heaven, we thank You Lord for this another day that You blessed us to see. We thank You Lord for life, health and strength. We thank You Lord for food, clothing and shelter. We thank You Lord for family, friends and enemies. We thank You Lord because all of our needs, Your faithful hand continues to provide, great is Your faithfulness. Father, forgive us for the many times we didn't stop to say thank You. Forgive us for taking Your love to us for granted. Lord, You commanded us to show love one to another ---forgive us for not always doing as You commanded us to do. Forgive us for picking and choosing who we wanted to share Your love with. God, You've been so good to us all the time and the least we can do is be good one to another, no matter what. The least we can do is forgive wrong doings. The least we can do is smile while others are wearing a frown. The least we can do is look for good in everyone. Give us the strength and courage this day to do the least and treat others the way we want to be treated. Lord, we are asking for a special healing touch for our granddaughter Rieli, continue to restore her strength on her left side. As the doctors search for the cause of this attack, lead them into the answer and the remedy in Jesus Name. We give you Praise, Honor and All Glory in Jesus Name, Amen. This is the day that You have made, we shall rejoice and be glad in it, no matter what, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
Lord, You are good and Your mercy endures forever!!!! We worship You for Who You are---You are good all the time, all the time You are good!!! Thank You Lord for blessing us to see another perfect day. Thank you Lord for Your mercy and grace. We thank You Lord for another day and another chance to draw closer to You. Help us this day to concentrate more on pleasing You and less on being in man's good graces. Open our eyes to see sometimes issues with family and friends are a distraction to us, the issues are designed to distract us from loving You more than life. The issues are designed to distract us from doing what You called us to do. The issues are designed to make us forget, the joy of the Lord is our strength!! Give us the wisdom, strength and courage to not let the tricks and schemes of the enemy distract us today--help us press our way forward, giving You all the praise!!! Bless each one who reads this prayer, help us surrender our lives to You and allow You to lead, guide and direct our paths. Help us to know, You are the Great I Am and nothing and nobody deserves more attention in our lives than You. We owe You to praise, hallelujah Jesus!!! In Jesus Name, Amen.
Thank You Lord for today, another day that we have not seen before. Thank You for opening our understanding to know You are the only true and living God. Thank You for Your constant reminder that without You we are nothing and there is no way we would have made it this far without You. Thank You for being our constant friend, our faithful God. Lord, we've had some ups and downs, some good days and bad; we've had people come in and out of our lives; we've had situations to change and cause us grief, but through it all You have remained the same, the fact of the matter is, You are the only constant we have, thank You. God, for those who are down, pick them up. For those who are sad, cheer them up. For those who are lonely, let them feel your presence. For those who are sick, grant them healing. For those who are disappointed, show them there is still hope. For those who are crying, wipe the tears from their eyes. For those who's heart is aching, mend their broken heart and grant them peace. For those who are happy and don't have a care in the world, remind them they are who they are because of You. Father, whatever the circumstance or situation, we thank You because we know You're always there. We pray one for another, asking that You will help us to remember to pray without ceasing, one for another. Help us to have an attitude of praise in advance, for praising You in advance is our act of faith. We pray a special prayer for baby Malia Spurlin asking for a Mighty healing touch from You. Help her parents to hold on to their faith and continue to believe there is nothing too hard for You to do. We pray also for the Carroll/McKinley Family as they mourn the passing of their love one. We say, yes Lord, thank You Lord, praise You Lord, bless You Lord for being our all in all, all the time, in Jesus Name, Amen.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Lord, You are good and Your mercy endures forever! We worship You for Who You are!! Thank You Lord for being good all the time! Thank You Lord for waking us to see another brand new day. It's a good day because You made it and we purpose in our hearts right now to let nothing stop us from rejoicing and being glad in it. We recognize our adversary the devil is roaming to and fro searching for who he can destroy, searching for who he can discourage, searching for who he can use to distract us; But God we praise You because greater is He who lives in us than he who is in the world! Help us this day to remember the Great One lives inside of us, which automatically makes us winners. Help us to know it's good to know Who You are, but still we must use what You've given us to use, we must do what You've told us to do, we must say what You've told us to say, in order to gain the victory. Lord, bless each one who reads this prayer with the strength we need to keep moving forward. Open our understanding so we will know who should stay and who should go and not insist on thinking they should stay because we need them. Help us to not value any opinion more than we trust Your Word. Lord we thank You for each life You've created, but help us to remember You created each life for Your glory and not for our praise, it's all about You Jesus! We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

by breathing in deeply
exhaling slowly
stretching my limbs
feeding my body healthy food
and plenty of water
I will honor God
in the simple actions of my day
by smiling at a stranger
helping where I can
by laughing
sharing
by taking time to listen
I will honor God
by respecting myself
by recognizing myself in my neighbor
I will honor God
with my love
with my thoughts
in the easy of my day

FRIDAY MORNING PRAYER AND INSPIRATION:
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.
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.."

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Good morning O Mighty, Holy, Righteous, Sovereign, Loving, Merciful God! It's a new day and we thank You for blessing us to still be here. We thank You for Your mercy and grace. We thank You for revealing Yourself to us. We thank You for choosing and using us. We thank You Lord for making us just the way You want us. We pray one for another, asking that You will help us to accept who we are in You and be glad about it. Give us the courage to be ourselves and the wisdom to not want to be like anyone else, because being like anyone else would be robbing the world of knowing the perfect "ME" that You created. Thank You Father for smiling on us every day of our lives. Open our understanding so we will know You're with us everywhere we go and You with us is more than the whole world against us. You with us means victory. You with us means peace. You with us means needs supplied. You with us means loved always. You with us means a very present help always available to us. You with us means we can always wear a smile because we're always in great company. Thank You Lord for always being with us. We shall live this day in perfect peace because we know You are with us and no weapon formed against us shall prosper. We praise You Lord for a great day today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

O Lord, our Lord how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! From the rising of the sun until the going down of the same Your Name is to be praised!! We praise the Name of Jesus! We thank You Lord for being our Rock. We thank You Lord for being our Fortress. We thank You Lord for being our Deliverer. We thank You Lord for being the Great I Am and for giving us every reason to trust You. Father, we're praying one for another, asking You to give us the courage to trust You with everything today. Help us to trust You enough to come to You before we complain, before we fuss, before we worry, before we doubt, before we get angry, before we get frustrated--Coming to You first saves us needless pains to bear. Open our understanding so we will know Your Word is true and Your promises are sure. Whatever we're lacking today, help us to know we have not because we asked not. We thank You for this day, we're going forth praising You for all that You've done and expecting You to take good care of us as You always have, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Lord, we thank and praise You for the blessing and privilege to be a part of another perfect day that You created. We praise You Father because the sun, the moon and stars are still in their heavenly place. We praise You because the birds are still chirping, the flowers are still blooming and although the grass and trees may not be as green, we still see Your handy work. We praise You because we are still breathing the air You continue to provide, great is Your faithfulness!! Lord, because of Your many wonderful blessings, with everything that we have we shout out, hallelujah!!! This morning even if we can think of something to complain about, we won't, but instead we'll just say, "Thank You Lord!" We're praying one for another, asking that You will bless each one with a great memory. Help us to remember all the many times You've come through for us and believe that You will continue to be our faithful God, without any help from us. We ask a special comforting touch for Pastor Bruce Shaw as he grieves the passing of his mother. Father, comfort him and his family and grant them peace. Hallelujah Jesus, You're worthy to be praised all day, no matter what comes our way help us to choose this day to praise You. We purpose in our hearts right now to trust You enough to rejoice and be glad in this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION BY JAHA ZAINABU
The other day I was driving behind a truck carrying, I don't know the technical word for them, but they were big pieces of wood that look like hugely over-sized spools for cotton, except builders use them for wire. You know what I'm talking about. Anyway the truck was carrying about twelve of them and it hit a bump and one of them fell off. I watched this big...thing roll super fast toward me. I swerved as did the few cars beside and behind me. Then as it passed me I saw it hit a bump and go over into the opposing traffic. As it passed I prayed and prayed that it wouldn't hit a vehicle, that it would somehow stop and those traveling near it would be safe.
I thought about this because in the moment I am inspired to encourage you as stones roll toward you and pass you to remember to keep praying because the stone may still be in motion. Because it didn't hit you doesn't mean that someone else is not in the path. Keep praying. Go slowly today. Breathe deeply. Love yourselves and mean it.
Lord, we thank You for blessing us to see another day. We thank You for the reminder to keep praying and showing love one to another. We ask Your comforting touch on Nadine Starks and family as they grieve the passing of her mother. Bless each one who reads this prayer with the blessings we're standing in the need of, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
Good morning Lord! We're excited about this new day that You have blessed us to see. We're excited about the endless possibilities this day holds. We're excited about the benefits that are available to us, all because we belong to the only true and living God. God, we're excited because You love us and we mean the world to You. We're excited because nothing shall separate us from Your love. We're excited because Your love to us is more than the whole world against us. We're excited because no matter how great our troubles may be, greater are You Who lives in us and that makes us more than conquerors in all things. Help us to get our minds right and concentrate on Who we belong to and who we are because of You. Because of who we are in You, we're going forth today believing we can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength. We can conquer anything. We can let go and move on. We can forgive. We can ignore attempts to bring us down. We can show love where there is hate. We can, we can, we can!!! Because the joy of the Lord is our strength!!! Father, we pray a special prayer for Carol Junior as she prepares to enter the operating room, draw her closer to You and help her to remember she belongs to You. Thank you for returning Apostle Berry and Bishop Bonner to us and blessing them on their journey. Move mightily on their behalf in the Name of Jesus! Thank You Lord for the blessing and privilege to pray, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.
