Abba Father, we come before you on this day giving you all the honor, all the glory and all the praise. For you are Holy and you are worthy to be praised. I thank you Holy Heavenly Father, for this day that you have blessed me with. I thank you Abba Father, for every precious breath you breathe into my body.
Abba Father, I thank you for giving me Jesus; I thank you for the power, the honor and the glory in the name of Jesus. Abba Father, Jesus Christ your one and only begotten Son; whom you sent into this world that through him we can be saved.
For you Lord God, are the breath of life you give me hope, you give me strength and a reason to live; by serving you Lord, with all my heart, mind and strength. You are my rock, my shield, my comforter and my light in the darkness. You are all I need and more so on this day.
Lord God, I pray that we as a nation, as your people; set our minds on things above. Jesus set his mind on the task that God had given him; without allowing his flesh to redirect what God had planned. His mind stayed on the Spirit of God; because of this we are free. But how free are we if we continue to allow ourselves to be controlled by the flesh and not the spirit? We are free; free because of the innocent blood of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
So, I say our minds tend to wander and be all over the place. If we allow the things in our minds that are not of the spirit, It can lead to destruction and death. But setting our mind on the spirit of God, allowing the spirit to have its way; leads to life and peace.
So, I say to all of you begin each day spending time with God; in his word and there he will give you the peace your heart so desires. And in your day with God, so as soon as you awaken to the sunrise He can send a refreshing down within your spirit.
In Jesus Holy Heavenly name I pray.
Amen
