Good Morning Holy Father,
You are everlasting, the alpha and omega, the first and the last. How do we understand such a concept. Everything we have or do starts and stops, but You ARE. You never grow weary, and there is no limit to your power and strength.
Father, we so often turn to you for strength when we are tired. And You give us strength for the day, but we often miss that you also include Your power. Walking in the power of Your might causes our strength to multiply and abound. You offer more than we have capacity to understand. Paul would tell us that would rather boast in his infirmities so that the power of Christ could rest upon Him. The Hebrew writer would tell us to let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Today, Father, we surrender the 3 little pigs that we grasp so tightly; our pride, our prosperity, and our priorities to You. We make a conscious choice to walk Your way, following Your path, knowing that in our surrender You will provide Your power and Your strength for this incredible journey.
Father be with those who are hurting today. You tell us that You were wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, the chastisement for our peace was on You and by Your stripes we are healed. Father, bring Your healing power to those whose hearts are hurting today. Jesus accepted the chastisement for our peace so that You could bring us into a state of favor and peace with you Abba Father. Help us to be Your hand extended to those in need, and who are hurting. Let us be distributors of Your peace. Thank you that all of our needs were met at the cross, through the precious blood of Your one and only Son, Jesus.
Father, Be blessed as we praise, Be honored as we worship; and may Your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
In the name of Your Son Jesus, we pray. Amen
