Greater worth than gold
For
a little while we have to suffer grief and all kinds of trials. These
have come so that our faith, of greater worth than gold, may be
proved genuine and may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus
Christ is revealed. Hear my prayer Lord. I love you with all my
heart, my soul, and my strength. I lie down and sleep in peace, for
you alone Lord make me dwell in safety You keep me in perfect peace
because my mind is steadfast, trusting in you. I will not conform any
longer to the pattern of this world, but I will be transformed by the
renewing of my mind. So I will be able to test and approve what your
will is - your good, pleasing and perfect will. May the words of my
mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, my
Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer. Amen
Your righteousness
I
give thanks to you Lord Jesus, because of your righteousness, and I
sing praises to the name of the Lord Most High. Your righteousness
reaches to the heavens. Your ways, God, are holy and beyond our
comprehension. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens, and let Your
glory be over all the earth. Praise be to the God and Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ! In your great mercy, you have given us new birth
into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the
dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil, or fade.
Kept in heaven for us who through faith, are shielded by your power
until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the
last time. In this, we greatly rejoice. Amen

Your righteousness
Lord God, your righteousness reaches the heavens. You have done great things. Who is like you God? Your ways, are holy and beyond our meager comprehension. What god is so great as our God? Be exalted oh God, above the heavens, and let your glory be over all the earth. You are my God. Earnestly I seek you. My soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you. I need to know you more, every day, every hour, every minute, every second, I strive to know you better. Amen

Lord bless our troops
Lord,
hold our troops fighting for our freedom from tyranny in your loving
hands. Protect them, and guide them, as they protect us. Bless them
and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our
time of need. I cover our troops with your precious blood and
surround them with angels. I speak healing to all soldiers injured in
their minds and bodies during their fight for our liberty. Lord make
them whole again for your Glory. We give glory, wisdom, thanks,
honor, power and strength to you, our God, forever! I lift up my
requests in the precious name of Jesus the Christ, my Lord and
Savior, my blessed redeemer, the King of Kings, the Lord of Lords,
the Alpha and Omega, and the Bread of Life. To God be the glory! We
worship you Christ Jesus, our great shepherd of the sheep, throughout
all generations, forever and ever. Amen
Jeremiah 31:3
Long ago the Lord said to Israel: “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing love I have drawn you to myself.
My greatest joy
Lord, my greatest joy is to be in your presence. Hold me in your loving arms for I need you so and I can't live without you. Order my steps with your divine wisdom and direction. Continue to keep me in the center of your will as I walk in your word.

Life is too short
Many people think that the opposite of fear is courage, when in fact the opposite of fear is faith. When you have faith to overcome your fears, you realize you had courage all along. Be confident and believe in yourself. People will hurt you; God will heal you. People will humiliate you; God will magnify you. People will judge you; God will justify you. You have everything in your hands if you have GOD in your heart. Just something to think about. Willie Knox
Justified through faith
We have been justified through faith and we have peace with you God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access, by faith, into this grace in which we now stand. We walk in the light, as you are in the light. We have fellowship with one another, and your blood Jesus purifies us from all sin. We boast in the hope of your glory and glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance, perseverance creates character, and character gives us hope. Your love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who you gave to us. For from you, and through you, and to you, are all things. Amen

God we worship and adore you
I pray every household and family receives God's word in their heart. Keep us safe from all danger and harm. Help us start every day with a new attitude and abundant gratitude. Help us make the best of the day by clearing our minds so we can hear you Lord. Broaden our minds so we can accept all things. Let us not whine or whimper over things we can not control. Let us see sin through your eyes Lord, and acknowledge it is evil. We must confess our sin with our mouths, turn from our evil ways, and accept your forgiveness. When this world closes in on us, let us remember your example Jesus, and slip away to find a quiet place to pray. It is the best response when we are pushed beyond our limits. I know when we are overwhelmed you listen to our hearts. The Spirit helps us in our weakness. We don’t know how we ought to pray but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express, in accordance with God's will. God we worship and adore you for your love for us, your mercy, goodness and kindness. Amen

All the praise, Glory, and Honor
Jesus, we give you all the praise, all the glory, and all the honor, for being our loving shepherd, and guiding us through every step of our lives. All we had to do is ask you in, and allow your will to be done. Teach your sheep to hear your voice, listen to your word, pay attention and obey. The world teaches obedience is brutal or cruel, but obedience to you God, through faith, is true freedom. Your obedience on the cross led us to righteousness. Your command is to believe in the power of your name, and to love one another. This is love: that we walk in obedience to your command. Thank you Lord. I praise you always that you have chosen us. Amen
Refresh yourself in My Presence
Refresh yourself in the Peace of My Presence. This Peace can be your portion at all times and in all circumstances. Learn to hide in the secret of My Presence, even as you carry out your duties in the world. I am both with you and within you. I go before you to open up the way, and I also walk alongside you. There could never be another companion as devoted as I am.
Because I am your constant Companion, there should be a lightness to your step that is observable to others. Do not be weighed down with problems and unresolved issues, for I am your burden-bearer. In the world you have trials and distress, but don’t let them get you down. I have conquered the world and deprived it of power to harm you. In Me you may have confident Peace. ~Jesus Calling~
