Our Daily Prayer for Thursday - Millie McFarland

For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given;
and the government shall be upon his shoulder,
and his name shall be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
— Isaiah 9:6 ESV

Theme: "Counselor"

Eternal and Righteous Father, I give you all the praise and all the glory. I thank you for sending your Son Jesus to be our, Wonderful "Counselor", our Mighty God, our Everlasting Father and our Prince of Peace.

Lord, you are my comfort in my times of trouble. I thank you for your Holy Spirit; for being my "Counselor" and guide. Lord, you have helped me make wise decisions in the midst of my storms. I praise you for you are my shield, buckler and defense.

Father, as we celebrate this Christmas season help us remember that Christ is the reason we celebrate Christmas. Teach us to come to know you for everything you are. You are our Wonderful "Counselor", our Mighty God, our Everlasting Father, our Prince of Peace, our Immanuel, our Alfa and Omega, our Beginning and our End; we are nothing without you.

Father, thank you for the gift of life and for being who you are. I will eternally be grateful. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray.

Amen
