Our Daily Prayer for Monday - Pat Saviano

“Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus.”

Philippians 2: 3-5 ESV

Theme Christian Servanthood

Scripture and prayer submitted by Pat Saviano

Heavenly Father,

In the orchestra of life, let my words be a melody of hope and encouragement.

As You spoke the world into existence with love and power,

let me use my words to breathe life into the spirits of those around me.

Guide my tongue to be quick to praise and slow to criticize,

that I might be an instrument of Your peace.

Grant me the wisdom to think before I speak,

reflecting on how my words can heal rather than hurt,

uplift rather than undermine.

In moments of frustration or anger, remind me of Your mercy and patience,

teaching me to offer a soothing word that mends the heart and kindles hope.

Let my speech be seasoned with Your divine grace,

making every word count for eternity.

In Jesus' Name,

Amen

“No hagan nada por egoísmo o vanidad; más bien, con humildad consideren a los demás como superiores a ustedes mismos.

No mirando cada uno por lo suyo propio, sino cada cual también por lo de los demás.

Haya en ustedes este sentir que hubo también en Cristo Jesús.”

Filipenses 2:3-5 NVI

Tema: El servicio cristiano

Escritura y oración enviadas por Pat Saviano

Padre celestial,

En la orquesta de la vida, permite que mis palabras sean una melodía de esperanza y aliento.

Así como Tú hablaste y diste existencia al mundo con amor y poder,

permíteme usar mis palabras para insuflar vida a los espíritus de quienes me rodean.

Guía mi lengua para que sea rápida para alabar y lenta para criticar,

para que pueda ser un instrumento de Tu paz.

Concédeme la sabiduría para pensar antes de hablar,

reflexionando sobre cómo mis palabras pueden sanar en lugar de herir,

elevar en lugar de socavar.

En momentos de frustración o enojo, recuérdame tu misericordia y paciencia,

enseñándome a ofrecer una palabra reconfortante que sane el corazón y encienda la esperanza.

Permite que mi discurso esté sazonado con tu gracia divina,

haciendo que cada palabra cuente para la eternidad.

En el nombre de Jesús,

Amén

Our Daily Prayer for Friday - Millie McFarland

“giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ,”

Ephesians 5:20 ESV

Scripture & Prayer Submitted by: Millie McFarland


Eternal and Righteous Father, I come into your throne room of grace with a heart of thanksgiving. I thank you for who you are and all that you do. Father, I give you all the glory and honor for there is none like you. You alone are God; creator of heaven and earth.

Lord, I thank you for letting me open my eyes this morning and allowing me to see a brand new day. I thank you for your provision in all of my needs. I thank you for the clothes on my back and the shoes on my feet. You are a good, good Father that takes care of me and loves me through it all.

Father, I thank you for my family, my friends, my church family and the readers here on Blessed Keys. I pray that you love, shelter and keep them from all harm. I pray that you sustain them and provide for them as you sustain and provide for me. If any are struggling, if any is sick, or if any are bound by sin; I ask that you be their way maker, their healer and their deliverer. Reveal yourself to them in their time of need. Show them your GLORY, so they may serve you and only you.

Father, I can't thank you enough for who you are. You are Sovereign and God over all. I thank you for loving me unconditionally and for never leaving nor forsaking me. I lay this prayer of gratitude at your feet. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray.

Amen

Our Daily Prayer for Sunday - Bernardo & Jackie Cruz

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.”

Ephesians 4:2 (NIV)

Scripture & Prayer submitted by: Husband & Wife

Bernardo & Jackie Cruz

Heavenly Father, we humbly come to you with a grateful heart. Everything we have is because of you, O Lord. Thank you, for allowing us to see a new day and to share it with people we love. We thank you for blessing us with wonderful people in our life and for seeing us through every obstacle life brings.

Your Love for us is so great; its beyond understanding. "Greater love has no man than this, that a man would lay down his life for his friends." (John 15:13) God commended his Love towards us in that; while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Help us to pick up our Cross daily and follow hard after you LORD.

Help us to be patient and kind to one another and Love without conditions, as you have shown for us. I pray that I can be the person you called me to be for my wife and my children and that our joy may be complete in you. Help me to Love sacrificially and be the Leader of my home so that my family can see you in me. Teach me to be content, forgiving, and patient; making every effort to keep the unity of the spirit, through the bond of Peace alive through my life. I know that I will fall at times and make mistakes, but I believe that I can be forgiven and strengthened by your grace and mercy; your Love is never ending.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever!

Amen

Our Daily Prayer for Wednesday - Millie McFarland

“And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”

Romans 8:28

Scripture & Prayer for Wednesday Submitted by: Millie McFarland

God you are our loving Father in Heaven; we are your children. We thank you for your guidance and your protection. We lift your Holy name on high.

Father, there are so many people feeling lost, unfocused and overwhelmed. We pray that you give each a sense of love and peace that no man can take away. Give them an unspeakable joy to hug their soul. Father, we come against the devices of the enemy that may attack their minds. Cover them with your healing blood.

Father, we don't always understand why we go through things, but we know you have a plan and a purpose for everything. Father, the word says all things work together for good; so that tells me the good and the bad come together in your favor. So, I thank you for my trails as they build character. I thank you for my life experiences as it has helped me gain more knowledge in the power of prayer, love, faith, service, gratitude and endurance. I thank you for healing me because now I have a testimony to help someone else that needs healing. Thank you Father for teaching us to trust and depend on you.

Father, thank you for loving us and calling us out of darkness. You have brought us to your marvelous light. At every moment of our existence you are present with your love and compassion. Help us be present for our brothers and sisters; in love and compassion. Lord, teach us to pray for one another and to draw strength through your word.

Father, we thank you for the good and the bad. We thank for working it all out in your favor for our lives. We honor you and we lay this prayer at your throne room. In Jesus Mighty name we Pray. Amen
