July 14 - 20, 2013

O loving and gracious God, I thank You and praise You for all You gifts. Often I fail to see the many opportunities You give to me each day. You are always there keeping watch and guarding my comings and goings. Thank you for keeping my feet from slipping from Your loving embrace and guarding my life each day in Jesus’ Name.

Amen




"He will not allow your foot to be moved; He who keeps you will not slumber."

Lord Jesus give us grace that we will do the works that You did when you walked this earth. We are your body here and now. By Your grace we will act boldly so that in Your name we will feed not just 5,000 but millions of children, women and men. In Your name we will house those living in squalor. In Your name we will heal the sick through clinics and medical missions. As You raised the son of a widow in Nain, we will reduce infant mortality of the poor. In Your name we will release prisoners in the countries we serve. Holy Spirit grant us a bold faith so that we can do more than we can ask for or imagine in Jesus’ Holy Name we pray.

Amen

"Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it."
John 14:12-14 (NIV)

June 30 - July 6, 2013

Oh, Lord our God, thank You for pouring out Your Spirit over our country that we may worship and adore You freely, that we may honor You publicly and share of Your wonders openly. We thank You and glorify You for the freedoms You have entrusted to us. Each freedom has come with a price, a price Your Son paid once and for all. We ask You to forgive us our sins; empty us of such effects. Once again, pour Your Spirit of boldness into our beings that we may win over the souls of those in our states and cities for Your glory. Fill us liberally with Your Holy Spirit until overflowing love spills out wherever You lead us. Let the fruit of Your Spirit bloom and refresh us daily and through us let the lost also be nourished by the fruit of Your Spirit, all in the name of our precious Lord Jesus.

“Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.”
2 Corinthians 3:17(ESV)

June 23 - 29, 2013

Thank You, Father, that Your will be done in my life, that You graciously forgive my trespasses as I surrender forgiveness to others, that You provide for my substance day after day. Thank You for guiding my foot along Your path while delivering my soul out of the way of temptation. I know You know all, oh most Glorious Father, although all too often I cry out that you bless me daily. Today Lord God, humbly I ask, let me be a blessing to You through my service to others, in Jesus’ name we pray.

Amen

“It shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear."
(Isaiah 65:24)

<b>Heavenly Father,</b> Bless the men we look to for fatherly instructions.
Strengthen them to be Christ-like in their care to us. May their examples as faith filled men motivate those looking up to them for advice, guidance, direction, and loving behaviors to do likewise. Thank you for keeping these men in your hedge of protection encouraging them to give their all in whatever task that needs completion. Help them to be prudent in their distribution of goods at home, in the community and to the church.<br>
May we always honor and respect our fathers as we honor and respect You our Heavenly Father. In Jesus’ name we pray.<br><br><b>Amen</b></p>

Father God, in the name of Jesus, I thank You for being my contender and giving me the victory over every enemy of my life, my family’s life and my extended family’s life.
I am confident that You have never lost a battle and every challenge that faces me has already been won by You my contender.
Thank You for saving not only my children but those children who are connected to my life; brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces, cousins and friends.

Amen  

But thus says the Lord: 'Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, And the prey of the terrible be delivered; For I will contend with him who contends with you, And I will save your children.'" 
(Isaiah 49:25)

June 2 - 8, 2013

Lord,
Guide my every step. Lead me in Your righteousnes and make Your way straight before my face As I draw close and walk in intimate relationship with You each day, I pray Your Holy Spirit will direct my footsteps and lead me in a plain path. Not my will, but Yours, be done in my life Lord.  I take pleasure in doing Your will, oh my God because You are more important to me than anything or anyone else.  For it’s in You Lord that I move and have my being.

“Not everyone who says to Me, “Lord, Lord,” shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.”
(Matthew 7:21)
