Prayer I give thanks to you, Lord of the heavens, my gracious Redeemer and my God. I thank you for a new day of life, I thank you for your steadfast love and mercies. I thank you that your purposes rule sovereign over the trials of life, and that – in your patience – you have persevered with me, in spite of my sin. As I come again to your word for food, please renew and refresh my soul. Lead me no...

Prayer O God the author of all good, I come to You for the grace another day will require for its duties and events. I step out into a wicked world; I carry about with me an evil heart. I know that without You I can do nothing, that everything with which I shall be concerned, however harmless in itself, may prove an occasion of sin or folly, unless I am kept by Your power. Hold me up and I shall b...

Prayer Compassionate Lord, Your mercies have brought me to the dawn of another day. Vain will be its gift unless I grow in grace, increase in knowledge, and ripen for spiritual harvest. Let me this day know You as You are, love You supremely, serve You wholly, admire You fully. Through grace let my will respond to You, knowing that power to obey is not in me, but that Your free love alone enables...

I worship you, O Lord, and I praise you and rejoice to know that your purity, purpose, and sovereignty are untouc...

Prayer Heavenly Father, I praise and thank you for sustaining me through the night, and for giving me the gift of another day of life. I thank you for your tender loving mercies toward me, and for fresh stores of grace in Christ to meet with me this morning. As I lift my eyes to you, Lord please meet me now and feed my soul. My need is great, and without the bread of your word to feed my soul, I w...

Prayer O Lord, my life is but a breath. There is much to be done, and there is little time to do it. Beyond this, my sin is a constant hinderance to my spiritual growth. O Lord, please deliver me from temptations and the devil’s power, and help me to grow mighty in your word. Fill me with your wisdom, and give me understanding I pray. In Jesus’ name, Amen. Reading Genesis 1 -2:3 & Luke 24. Meditat...

Prayer Heavenly Father, as I read your word, Lord, may you fulfill your promises to me, and your purposes for me. Lord, the shining and spreading of your glory is what matters more than anything else. If you should shine through a wretched sinner such as me, all the more glory be to you. Please renew, transform, and change my heart. And as my heart is renewed and transformed, may it spill over int...
