    THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father in heaven, we thank You for waking us to see this new day. We thank You for new mercy. We thank You for new air to breathe. We thank You for providing NEW everyday of our lives. Thank You Lord for being faithful all the days of our life. Lord we’re praying for Terrance Smith and family as they mourn the passing of his father and also Vicki Watson and family who are saddened by the passing of their grandmother. We pray that You will draw them closer to You and give them peace. Remind them that You are the Comforter and as they travel grant them traveling grace. We pray one for another, praying that each one will get excited about still being here, so excited that we purpose in our heart to let our light shine everywhere we go. We pray that we will stir up the gift You planted in each of us and use it for Your glory. Help us to remember You’re always doing new things, so we shouldn’t become complacent with doing things the old way and satisfied with the old in our lives. Give us the courage to spring forward and do a new thing today. Praying that we find our reason to smile throughout this day, and let everyone know we’re loved by the Almighty God, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    IT’S ME
    How many people have you analyzed this week?
    How many (other people’s) situations did you give your two cents and claim you had the answer to all their problems?
    How much wrong did you see in someone else? Did you fuss at them? Talk about them?
    How much time did you spend pointing out the negative in everything?
    How many times did you discuss personal business that did not concern you?
    Why does what he or she is doing concern you?

    How about saying, “It’s me.”
    It’s me standing in the need of prayer
    It’s me who needs to take a look at myself.
    It’s me who needs to admit where I’ve been wrong.
    It’s me who needs to discover my purpose and do the work.
    It’s me who needs to stop waiting for someone to bless me and instead, look to be a blessing to someone else.
    It’s me who needs to insert love where hate seems to be winning.
    It’s me who needs to accentuate the positive and dismiss all negative thoughts/behavior.

    It’s me!
    It’s not my brother, not my sister, but it’s me who needs to: Work on me, love me, see the beauty in me, and appreciate me.
    It’s me who needs to let the world “see” me and not so much “hear” me --- actions speak louder than words.

    Let’s face it, sometimes it’s not them, it’s me.

    MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Blessed be the Name of the Lord! You are worthy to be praised and adored! Thank You Lord for waking us to see another day. Thank You for giving us the breath to say, thank You. Thank You for giving us the strength to clap our hands in praise to the Almighty God. Lord for Who You are we worship You. For all that Your faithful hand has provided we praise You. We thank You Lord for taking care of us yesterday and we praise You in advance for being the same God Who did it yesterday, Who will do it today. We pray each one will take the time to look back and see how You’ve been there all the time; Your reputation is good in our lives, so based on what we know about You we’re moving forward today believing You will not tarnish Your record in our life—You will take care of us. Today is the day we stop putting off what we keep saying we’re going to do. Today is the day to let go of the pain that we keep carrying from day to day. Today is the day to forgive, even if they don’t ask. Today is the day to use the gifts You’ve planted within us to glorify You. Today is the day to praise You with the lives we live. Be glorified in our lives today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    We give all praises to the King of kings and the Lord of lords. We worship You because You are the Great I Am. You are everything we need You to be. We pray each one knows You know best what we need and trust You enough to supply our every need. Help each one to know this day needs our presence. We pray our presence will make today brighter for someone. We pray our presence will help someone along the way. You promised to never leave us, which means You’re present with us always, give us the courage to allow You to shine through our presence here today. Lord, we pray each one knows we’re still here today because there is still work for us to do, our purpose is not yet complete. We didn’t do it yesterday, but since we’re still here today there is still time to do it. Whatever our “it” is, we’re not going to put it off anymore, we shall go forth with the first step today. Bless each one to value their presence here today and not take one minute for granted. We’ve complained enough, we’ve worried enough, we’ve doubted enough, we’ve talked enough about it---today we shall go forth with a life of praise. Our life shall point back to You—be glorified in our life today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father in heaven, we love You, we praise You, we adore You, we lift up Your holy and righteous Name. We declare by faith You are the only true and living God and we thank You for being alive in us. We pray one for another, asking You to help us remember, everywhere we go You’re with us. You hear all our conversations, You witness all our actions, and You know our thoughts. You see us when we’re worrying, doubting, angry and troubled. You see us when we’re letting our light shine, determined to not be distracted. We pray everywhere we go today something will remind us of Your presence and we govern ourselves accordingly. Give us the courage and strength to stay out of Your business and trust You to be God in our lives. Help us to trust the fact that You have been doing it by Yourself since the beginning of time and now is not the time You’re requesting our assistance. Lord we believe You can do it! Whatever our it is today, we shall keep our hands lifted up and our mouth filled with praise, trusting You to continue to be God in our life. We thank You for this beautiful day You made, we shall rejoice and be glad in it no matter what our “IT” is, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father, our Lord, our Savior, our King we offer praises to You! You are the only true and living God and we love You! Thank You for opening our eyes to see another day filled with Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. We don't know what today will bring, but we're excited because our lives are in Your hands and we know we're in good hands. We're in the hands of our loving God Who promised to never leave us or forsake us. We're in the hands of God Almighty and You're never intimidated by any circumstance or situation. We pray each one trusts You enough to obey Your voice and follow Your lead. There is so much going on around us, so many are going through and some are at the point of almost giving up--Lord, help us remember Who You are in the midst of it all. Help us remember all the many times You brought us through. All the many times You did what man said couldn't be done. All the many times we thought we wouldn't make it through, but You spoke peace and gave us the strength to ride through the storm. You are a mighty God and we praise You for loving us with all Your might. We're praying for Ronnie Hendriex, draw him closer to You and grant him peace. We're trusting You for a mighty healing touch from You. Today is a great day, we pray one for another asking You to give us the courage to give You a sacrifice of praise and believe our victory lies in our "right now" praise. In Jesus Name, Amen.

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    WHAT WILL I SAY TO ME TODAY?

    I talk to a lot of people every day, some conversations are lengthy, some interesting, and some I wish never happened. I enjoy talking to others, but I feel like I need to talk to me more, so what will I say to me today?
    Someone is saying, “That is not proper English, it should be, what will I say to myself today?”
    Well, when I’m talking to me, I can’t be concerned about what someone else will say, because I’m talking to “ME”. If I can’t be open, honest and relaxed when talking to me, then who?

    Throughout the day we act according to what’s “proper”. There is a certain way to act/speak on our jobs. If we want to be respected there is a way we must carry ourselves at school, in our neighborhoods, in the stores, at the park, etc – wherever we go, if we want to be respected we must act “properly”.

    Maybe, just maybe, we get so caught up in being proper until we forget it’s proper to speak to who we are. For me, it’s proper to speak to me. Me is who I am and it’s proper to remind myself on a daily basis who “ME” is. (Someone is really cringing right now, lol!) Not only that but, we take the time to talk to others about everything, often neglecting who we are because we’re too busy trying to be “proper”.

    I often talk to me out loud, because hearing what I’m thinking checks me. Hearing what I’m thinking lets me know if I should say it again or let it go.

    What will I say to me today?
    I will say:

    Good morning oh beautiful one! Yes, I am beautifully and wonderfully made!
    This is the day the Lord has made, I WILL rejoice and be glad in it, no matter what! Why? Because I trust God!
    I am smart! I am talented! I have what it takes to succeed!
    I am blessed by God and shall be a blessing wherever I go today.
    I will NOT be distracted or held accountable to other people’s issues
    I will have a great day today on purpose.

    I have discovered what I say to me determines how my day will be.

    You don’t have to like what I’m saying because I’m not talking to you, I’m talking to ME!

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Lord, we thank You for waking us to see another day. We thank You for Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. We thank You Lord for loving us always, through our good and bad. We pray You will continue to draw each one closer to You, so close that we will trust when You say no, You mean no. So close when You say move forward, we will take steps forward. So close when You say let go, although it may be difficult, we will trust You know what’s best for us and let go. Draw us closer to You so we may hear Your voice so clear and purpose in our heart to love, honor, trust and obey. We don’t know what this day will bring, but we trust because You made it, nothing will be a surprise to You, in fact You’ve already planned on what You know—so Lord we will trust You. Help us to recognize distractions and give us the strength to not be distracted. All honor, glory and praise to You, O Mighty God! We love You and we’re expecting You to exceed abundantly above all we ask and think this day, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Lord, You are good and Your mercy endures forever! We worship You for Who You are! We declare You are good all the time, all the time You are good! Thank You Lord for another day of life, graced with another chance to say yes to Your will. You are a mighty God and we thank You for continuing to be mighty in our lives. We pray one for another, asking that You draw us closer to You and we heed the call. You’re calling us to a higher place of praise, a place where You can be glorified in our lives. Help each one to see where their place is and be determined to get there. Give us the courage to be determined to do our assignments, trust You in all things, show love one to another and worship You with the lives we live. Today is a good day to be better than we were on yesterday. Today is a good day to do better than we did yesterday. Today is a good day to smile no matter what our circumstance and know, GREATER is He Who lives in us than any circumstance we may deal with today. We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father, our Lord, our God, our Savior, our Friend, our Protector, our Provider ---How excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! Thank You Lord for waking us to see another beautiful day. We thank You for life, health and strength. Thank You Lord for a mind to worship and praise You. We thank You Lord for being the Author and Finisher of our faith. We believe You are Who You say You are and that You will do everything You said You will do. We believe there is nothing too hard for You to do. We believe we can do all things through Christ Who strengthens us. We believe Your Word is true—but, in troubled times help us to trust what we believe. Many are going through, draw each one closer to You and remind us of the fact that You are an Awesome God and we can always depend on You. We fall down but we can always depend on You to extend a hand to lift us up again. Father, remind us today how good You are. Open our eyes that we may see, everywhere we go You’re with us providing everything we need. We declare by faith, today is the first day of the best days of our life, in Jesus Name, Amen

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    LET'S TALK ABOUT YOU

    You are beautifully and wonderfully made
    You are talented
    You are gifted
    You are intelligent
    You are love
    You are a Designer’s Original
    You are one of a kind
    You are special
    You are unique
    You are the best at what you do
    You are the best you alive
    Everything you need to succeed, it’s in you
    Everything you need to be happy, it’s in you
    But listen, you can’t be you trying to be like someone else
    You can’t be you trying to please people
    You can’t be you looking at me, him or her
    Take a look at yourself, smile and be happy being you
    When God made you, He gave the world the best you possible
    Aren't you glad God made you?
    Don't compromise YOU. Don't give others the power to change YOU.
    Be happy being YOU.

    MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father, we love You. We praise You. We worship You. We honor You. We declare by faith You are the only true and living God. There is nobody like You Lord, nobody greater than You. We thank You for blessing us with a free will. It’s our choice to love, honor and obey You, and with our choice we willingly choose You. We choose to follow where You lead. We choose to trust You. We choose to let our light shine everywhere we go. We choose to live out our purpose. We choose to expect You to continue to be faithful. We choose to expect You to hear and answer our prayers. We choose to expect You to exceed abundantly above all we ask or think. There are so many things about life we don’t understand and sometimes don’t agree with, but we’re sticking with our choice. This morning we ask a special prayer for Dwayne Jackson and family as the mourn the passing of his mother. We ask Your healing touch for DeWayne Browning. We pray one for another, asking that You will meet us where we are and whatever we stand in need of, touch, heal and deliver. Our praise is our weapon and today we choose to use our weapon, looking for the victory in all things, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Lord, we say thank You for life, health and strength. Today is another day You perfectly made and privileged us to still be here. We’re still here with the opportunity to glorify You in all we say and do. We’re still here blessed to smile and be a blessing to someone else. We often take so much for granted, assuming everything will always be the way it is now, and we forget to say thank You. Forgive us Lord for taking advantage of Your grace and mercy. Forgive us for not showing our appreciation to You with the lives we live. Right now we pause to say, thank You Lord for all You’ve done, are doing and shall do for us. We thank You for a sound mind, health and strength, family and friends, air to breathe and beauty to see. We ask You to draw each one closer to You, help us to be sensitive to Your voice and believe You know best. Help each one to know, now is not the time to get comfortable, but now is the time to press, it’s time to stretch, it’s time to purpose in our heart to be all You designed us to be. Now is the time to forgive. Now is the time to speak to the one we keep avoiding. Now is the time to finish that project. Now is the time to get started with the masterpiece. Now is the time to get up and go get it! Today is the day, and we praise You in advance for the first day of the best days of our life, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father in heaven, we thank You for waking us this morning and again assuring us that You are Jehovah Jireh, for all our needs have been supplied. All we need to live, we have and for this we give You praise. All we need to survive, we have and for this we give You praise. We often complain about what we don’t have, there is so much more we want, but we praise You because we have everything we need to live. All the days of our life we have seen a new day every day, great is Your faithfulness. Lord help us remember You created this day, so You know all about it. The best thing for us to do is talk to You about everything first and take the time to listen. You speak to us throughout the day, we pray each one will take the time to listen. If we hear “don’t” then we shouldn’t, if we hear “do” then we should, help us take the time to listen. We pray each one realizes the seeds we plant today will come up again, so we should only plant what we desire to experience. We’re praying for DeCarlos Cannon and Kedrick Johnson, asking for a special healing touch from You. We pray one for another, praying each one will take the time to listen and purpose in our heart right now to rejoice and be glad in this day, no matter what, in Jesus Name, Amen.

Thank You Lord for showing us how great You are everyday of our lives and for always loving us with Your amazing love. We’re going forth today knowing Who You are, believing You’re with us, and declaring because there is nobody greater than You, we win in every circumstance and situation. It does not matter what our situation may look like right now, our faith looks up to You. Today is a great day made by our great God and nothing can change that.

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    LOW BATTERY INDICATOR

    If you take a look in the upper right hand corner of your cell phone, you can see how much battery life remains. Fully charged – 100%. A few hours later, depending on how much you use your phone, 85%, 80%, 70%, but once 30% or lower shows, we will be careful not to play any games or talk on the phone too long until we can get to a charger. Why? No battery-no cell phone. There are some who can’t live without their cell phone!

    Just as our cell phone has a low battery indicator, so it is with our body. We know when we’re tired. We know when we’re stressed. We know when we’re sick. We know because we have low battery indicators: Headaches, stomach aches, high blood pressure, grouchy, short-tempered, sadness, depression; Our bodies have indicators that tell us when something is not right. These indicators warn us of low battery and a charge is necessary.

    We don’t ignore our cell phone low battery indicator and we absolutely should not ignore our body low battery indicators. If a situation is too stressful, why are you still there? If you know what sends your blood pressure sky high, or what affects your sugar level, leave it alone! If you’re tired, stop going for a minute, take the time to rest. Whatever you do, don’t ignore your low battery indicators. Your life has to be more important than the cell phone!

    How do you recharge? What do you do to regain your energy, your strength, your health, your sanity? We can’t use anyone’s battery charger, what works for them is not guaranteed to work for you. But, there is a “universal” battery charger, one that works for all---Prayer, Praise & Worship! (If this is not your brand, do what works for you, just don’t ignore the low battery indicator).

    When we pray, praise and worship our minds are shifted from those things that are affecting our charge, to concentrating on the One Who will not only provide the charge, but will remind us how to retain a charge. We retain the charge by talking to our God about everything and taking the time to listen. WARNING: Being hard-headed, stubborn, and disobedient will drain our battery and a re-charge will become necessary. Oh yea, playing games and dealing with drama will drain our battery faster.

    Prayer, Praise and Worship extends our battery life. Take a few minutes each day to praise God for all He’s done and worship Him for Who He is. Don’t ignore the low battery indicator, talk to your Creator about a charge.

    MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    We praise Your Name Jesus, for there is nobody greater than You. Lord we praise You because mighty are the works of Your hands. You are the reason we still have life. You are the reason we have peace. You are the reason we have strength, for the joy of the Lord is our strength. You are the reason we can shout, “hallelujah the victory is ours today!” Because of Who You are and Your love to us, we feel safe and secure in Your loving arms. You promised to never leave us, remind each one of Your presence in our life and give us the courage to make the effort to move forward. We shall not waste any time today fussing or complaining, but we shall use the breath we have to encourage someone along the way. We shall look for good in every situation, knowing in every situation You’re present and having You there makes the difference. We’re praying for Michelle Evans as she prepares to go in for surgery. Draw her closer to You, remind her You’re with her and because You’re there it’s all good. We pray one for another, praying each one take the time to see the green grass, smell the flowers and appreciate air to breathe. Life is good and we praise You because we’re still here to live it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:

    Good morning Lord! We bow our heads and we stretch forth our hands before You, worshiping and praising You for Your excellency. We thank You Lord for showing us daily that You are an awesome God. Lord, You made man smart and intelligent, You gave us the ability to rhyme and reason; And sometimes we get so busy trying to make things happen, or trying to make things work out the way we want, until we forget it's because of You that we're able to move around. It's because of You that we can think. It's because of You we have jobs to go to or means to take care of ourselves. It's because of You our families are provided for and our children are safe. It's because of You that we live, we move and have our being, so right now we want to take the time to say, "Thank You!" Thank You for all You have done, are doing and shall continue to do. Lord, when we see the sun or feel the heat of the sun today, help us remember You put it there. And as long as what we're dealing with today does not get bigger than You causing the sun to rise and set, we should trust You. For some of us things are a little tough right now, but we're not asking You to help us climb our mountains or give us the strength to go around them, but we are asking You to take us through, for we believe there are more blessings on the other side of through. Today is an absolutely wonderful day and we thank You for the sun, which is our constant reminder that the Son is still alive, and through Him we are more than conquerors! We give You praise, 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 Apostle R. Berry and Tawnette Gilbert and we 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 our 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.

In Your Word You told us tribulations would come, but we could be of good cheer because You have overcome them all. God, because of Your Word we can live knowing our life is worth living and we can live expecting great things. Thank You Jesus for Your Word! God, we're taking You at Your Word, we will trust You with all our hearts and we will not lean to our own understanding, but in all our ways we will acknowledge You first and expect You to direct our paths. We pray one for another, asking You to bless each one with the blessings we stand in need of and give us the strength and courage to take You at Your Word and keep pressing forward believing Your Word is true. It's a great day today, we're expecting great things, and we purpose in our hearts to rejoice and be glad in it, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    WHO ARE YOU?
    When it comes to you, what you say about you should matter more than what anyone else says about you?

    Listening to others opinion about you will tempt you to change to who they believe you should be. The more you listen to them, the more they will believe they have a license to tell you who you should be and what you should do. Stop listening to them! Revoke their license. Tell them, “I know who I am!”

    So the million dollar question is, “Who do you say YOU are?” If you know who you are, nothing anyone says can make you change who you are. We are all a piece of a giant puzzle, designed to fit in our place. Any change to who you are messes up the fit. I don’t know, maybe that’s why so many have to go and “find themselves”, because they have let what others say intimidate who they are.

    You are a perfect YOU. There is no one like YOU. There is no one better than YOU. There is nothing you have to do to impress anyone. Nothing you need to do to make “them” like you. You have to know who you are and be proud to be you. You have to know when God made YOU, He created a masterpiece.

    Take the time to get to know YOU. Love on YOU. Take care of YOU. Don’t change YOU. Go forth and let YOU shine. Go forth and be happy being YOU. Look at YOU and smile, you’re beautiful! When you’re happy being you, goodness will prevail and God, the Creator of YOU will be glorified.

    MONDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Lord, You are good and Your mercy endures forever! We worship You for Who You are; You are the Great I Am, everything we need You to be, all the time.Thank You Lord for waking us to see another perfect day. We make special request for the family of Dr. Stephanie Douglas as they adjust to the transitioning of their beloved Barbara Perdue; grant them the strength and peace that comes from knowing that to be absent from the body, is to be present with the LORD! We also pray one for another, praying each one will purpose in their heart to go forth today with an attitude of a winner. Help us to stop fighting battles not designed for us to fight. Help us to know there is a war going on that cannot be fought with bullets and guns. It cannot be fought with tricks and schemes. It cannot be fought with lies and backbiting. It’s a spiritual warfare and it’s time we put on our God-given armor. It’s time we get our minds right, stand on Your promises and go forth declaring words of victory. We’re going forth today being all we can be. We’re going forth declaring, no weapon formed against us shall prosper. We’re going forth dismissing all negative and clinging to all positive. We’re going forth believing, I can do all things through Christ Who gives us strength. We’re going for not looking back but reaching forth to new heights, new ideas, new dreams, believing You have great things in store for us. This is the day that our faithful God has made and we shall rejoice and be glad, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    O Lord, our God, how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth! We praise You Lord because there is none like You in all the earth. We praise You Lord because You know everything there is to know about us and there is nothing You know that will stop You from loving us. We praise You Lord because no matter what we say or do, Your grace and mercy towards us continues and You keep doing great things for us. We're blessed!! We're blessed!! We're blessed!! Thank You Lord for Your amazing grace! It's a new day that You have blessed us to see, filled with new mercy. Yesterday is gone, never to return again, help each one to know what matters most right now is what we do today. We praise You Lord because You have given us breath today to be a blessing to someone else. You've given us breath today to forgive and move on. You've given us breath today to let go of what we insist on holding on to, knowing You said, "No". You've given us breath today to take another step in the direction of living out our purpose. Lord we shall not take advantage of the breath that You have given us. We purpose in our hearts right now to live today so You can use us. We will not dwell on negative things, but we will look for You in every situation, then rejoice and be glad because knowing You're there makes the difference. Lord we're praying for Annette Wilson, asking that You draw her closer to You and grant her peace. We thank You Lord for today, we're going forth rejoicing and being glad no matter what, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    Hallelujah, salvation and glory, honor and power unto the Lord our God. For the Lord our God is mighty, yes the Lord our God is omnipotent. The Lord our God is wonderful! We worship You for Who You are in all of Your glory. Thank You Lord for waking us to see today. We thank You for Your goodness, kindness, mercy and grace. Lord we thank You because we recognize You are the Source of our strength and the strength of our life. We recognize without You we would be nothing. We recognize it is in You we live, move and have our being. We recognize if it had not been for You on our side there is no way we would be where we are today. We may not have all we desire to have, but we praise You because all of our need Your faithful hand continues to provide. Great is Your faithfulness!!! We pray each one will remember today all we know about You and based on what we know about You live today not looking back, but pressing forward. Today we refuse to be distracted by the tricks and schemes of our enemy. We refuse to give in to negativity. We shall go forth knowing who we are because of Whose we are, declaring the victory in all things. We believe we are more than conquerors through Christ Jesus Who loves us, which means we win, that’s it, that’s all! In Jesus Name, Amen.

    THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Great is thy faithfulness! Morning by morning new mercies we see! All we have needed Thy hand hath provided. Great is thy faithfulness, Lord unto us. We praise You Lord for bringing us through yesterday and blessing us to see today. We thank You Lord because we realize it's not because of any good that we have done, but it's all because of Your mercy and grace. God, we pray one for another, lifting all doubt, worry, trouble, sickness and confusion to You; Father, as we lift all our cares to You, we pray for strength to keep our hands lifted up, praising and worshiping You in all things. Help us to realize we can't, but You can. Lord, open our ears so we may hear Your voice so clear and help us to know, our will is weak unless it's joined together with Your will--without You, life has NO meaning. So, we thank You for Your ever presence in our lives and since we know You're with us today, we surrender our day to You, trusting You to bring us through. Thank You Lord for Your peace, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    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, “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 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)

    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, “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 men know that we are His disciples, if we have love one to another”– (Jn.3:35)

    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, “I know, God causes all things to work together for my good” –(Rom 8:28)
    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!

We pray our ears are open to hear Your voice and our mind is convinced to obey Your voice. We thank You Lord for being the Source of our strength and the strength of our lives. It’s a new day, we thank You for a new start and another chance to say yes to Your will. We’re going forth today walking in our victory, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    TUESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Oh Lord, our God how excellent is Thy Name in all the earth. The Name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe. There is power in the Name of Jesus. Thank You Lord for giving us the privilege to use Your Name. We call on a lot of names during the course of a day, but we pray each one will recognize the importance to call on the Name Jesus. Help us to remember You are the only constant we have, so it makes sense to stick close to You. It makes sense to talk to You all the time about everything. Thank You Lord for Your ever presence in our lives and for promising to never leave us. Help us to remember You WILL supply our every need, so if there is anything we feel we lack today, give us the wisdom to talk to You about it and trust if we truly need it, You will supply it. Give us the courage to go get our blessing today, but keep in contact with You to verify what we’re getting is from You. We praise You in advance for an absolutely perfect day today, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    WEDNESDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    Our Father in heaven, God we thank You for this another day that You have blessed us to see. We thank You Father, for being God and for being God all by Yourself; You don't need our help to be good at being Who You are, thank You Father! We thank You God because You are omniscience, You know everything, before everything happens; You know our desires, You know our hearts, You know, oh God, what we stand in the need of better than we do; So Lord, we're asking that You help us trust You for what You know. Give us the strength and courage to stop telling You what to do, but instead ask You to lead and guide us according to what You know. Give us the courage to stop putting our will before Your will and help us to believe the safest place for us to be, is in the perfect will of the Almighty God. Bless us this day and help us to look for You in every situation throughout this day, we give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    THURSDAY MORNING PRAYER:
    O Lord our God, we lift our hands in total praise to You. Worthy are You O Lord of all our praise! Lord we take nothing for granted, we recognize it’s all because of You. Without You we couldn’t wake up. Without You we couldn’t continue to breathe. Without You we couldn’t move around from space to space. Lord we’re so grateful to still be alive, we have another chance to live out our purpose. We pray each one will do something today that lines up with our purpose. We pray our lives will point back to You and say, “What a mighty God we serve!” Everywhere we go today we pray each one will serve You to someone else. We pray each one will let the world see, it is in You we live, move and have our being. Our God is an awesome God and in all Your awesomeness, You’re with us everywhere we go. Help us remember Who our constant Company Keeper is and know because You’re with us, the victory belongs to us in ALL things! We give You praise, in Jesus Name, Amen.

    FRIDAY MORNING INSPIRATION:
    Don’t Let It Overpower YOU.

    What has you so angry, depressed, worried, frustrated, scared or sad? What is it? Whatever reasons you give to justify why you’re feeling what you’re feeling right now, change it to, “Distraction”. As long as you’re angry, depressed, worried, sad, frustrated and all the more, your focus is misplaced. If you believe God is great, the question you must ask yourself, “Is God greater than your situation?” If the answer is yes, then magnify Him over your situation.

    God created YOU for a reason; He sees the best in YOU. Don’t let your situation overpower YOU, trust the One Who made YOU to bring YOU through it all. God’s desire is that the best He sees in you will shine through the distractions. Don’t let it overpower you. Get your mind right, refocus. Greater is He who lives in YOU, than anything that lives in this world. Go forth, walk in your greatness.
