Thank You for this day.
Thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning.
I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God.
You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.

Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you.
Thank you  for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm.
Help me to start this day with a pleasant and thankful attitude.
Let me make the best of this day and help me to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.
Help me to see all things with Your understanding.
Let me not grumble about things for which I have no control.

Let me see sin through Godly  eyes and acknowledge it as evil.
When I sin, help me to repent, to confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and to receive the Your forgiveness.
When burdens of the world close in on me, help me remember the example of Jesus - -to find a quiet place to pray.
Yet I know that when I can't  pray, You listen to my  heart.

Continue to use me to do Your will.
Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others.
Keep me strong that I may help the weak.
Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.
Equip me that I may teach Your little ones.

Lord, open your door for those that are lost and can't find their way.
Be comfort for those that are sad, or burdened, or lonely, or sick..
Draw those who don't know You intimately.
Give boldness to those that will  these words with praying for others.
And Lord, reveal Yourself to those that do not yet  believe in You.

I thank you for revealing Your word to me.
I know  that You change people and You change  circumstances.

Lord, guard over my brothers (and sisters) and my children, their spouses and everyone in their households.
Give peace, love, and joy in their homes.
Give the provision and wisdom that they may be free of debt and fulfilled in all needs.

May everyone that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than You.
Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight.
May these words be received into the hearts of every one that reads them and  that confesses them willingly.

O that I may be obedient to you, that you may hear my  prayer.
I ask these things through the authority of  Jesus.
Amen.
