Morning Moment of Prayer ~ Saturday, May 31, 2025

Morning Moment of Prayer.

Dear Lord Jesus…I know that even before I ask, You have supplied all of my need for every area of my life. Emotionally, physically, mentally, and spiritually, Your Word tells me that I find completion, wholeness, and fullness in Your presence, and I rest in this truth. I tell worry to get behind me in Your name, and I refuse any advance of the enemy (he is so weak!) to try to throw a wet blanket of anxiety over my soul. You alone, Lord, are everything, and I seal this prayer in Your Beautiful Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!

And my God shall supply all your need
according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19

Morning Moment of Prayer ~ Memorial Day, 2025

Morning Moment of Prayer...

Dear Lord Jesus...On this day of remembering those who have served my country* to preserve its freedoms, especially the freedom to worship, I lift up heartfelt thanks for all that You have done. I am so grateful for each person, especially those who laid down their lives so that I could bring praise to Your Name openly. Yet, first and foremost, I am not interested in making my country “great” even though I love this land ______ (name the nation you live in) so very much. You said that Your Kingdom is not of this world, and so, I live for You, King Jesus, and Your Kingdom above anything else. May Your love for all people everywhere guide everything I do today to draw others to Yourself. In Your Name, Lord of All, I seal this prayer. Amen!

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world...”
John 18:36

Dear Heavenly Father…I am so thankful that I am held safe and secure in Your Almighty hands today and forever.

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…I exalt You! Every morning when I start my day in adoration of You, well, the day turns out whole lot better. When I lean into the Holy Spirit, He directs me in Your word and in prayer for my loved ones, my community, and the nations. And Lord, I thank You for creating me! It has taken a long time and lots of Your healing touch to come to the place where I am thrilled with who You made me to be: Your very own Masterpiece. I revel in the joy of Your life in mine and may Your light shine through the darkness around me today. In the Name Above All names, King Jesus. Amen!

For we are His workmanship [His own master work, a work of art], created in Christ Jesus [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, ready to be used] for good works, which God prepared [for us] beforehand [taking paths which He set], so that we would walk in them [living the good life which He prearranged and made ready for us].
Ephesians 2:10 AMP

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…I will wait upon You. I will wait upon Your timing. You have never failed me in any way. Have you done things differently than I would have? Yes, most certainly! And I thank You that You didn’t take my advice, as if that would ever be helpful!!?? Oh, how I love You and surrender the start of this week into Your almighty hands. And as I wait, I turn to the old Bible Hebrew word for waiting upon You, which means to be tightly bound to You; my heart connected with Yours. I am so excited to see what You are up to in the next few days! In the Name Above All Names, King Jesus. Amen!

Wait on the LORD; Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the LORD!

As I prepare my heart to worship You, I am reminded of all You have done for me. In turn, I pray to bless, encourage, comfort, and pray for those in need around me. I pray again for events in the Middle East and Ukraine, praying for multiplied numbers of folks to turn to You. May they sense Your presence as I do now. In the Name of the Everlasting King Jesus. Amen!

You will keep him in perfect peace,
Whose mind is stayed on You,
Because he trusts in You.

Dear Lord Jesus…Oh, how near You are! Closer than my breath, indeed, dwelling inside of me by the Holy Spirit. I fall hard into Your grace today.

And Your grace who effectively works in my life – again, by the Holy Spirit – to deliver and heal me from the inside out! I pray to be a blessing to at least one person today. Please prompt my heart and mind for those who need prayer, need something material that I can give them, or a prophetic word. I am ready! In Your Glorious Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!

Dear Lord Jesus…My eyes are turned toward You. I lift up this coming week before Your majestic throne and stand in solid assurance that You are completely in control as I walk closely with You. I pray to be a light in the dark and that everywhere You lead me today in my home, workplace, or the marketplace, I will be so overflowing with the Presence of the Holy Spirit, that people around me will know that You are near, and they will call upon Your name even if they have never done so before. Please lead me to those you want me to pray for or witness to them of Your great love. Here I am. In Your Superlative Name, Lord Jesus. Amen!

Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.

Morning Moment of Prayer ~ Saturday, May 3, 2025

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…I find such rest in You and Your Word. When You say that You will do all the heavy (and light!) lifting in my life if I simply let go my cares and trust You, You have never failed to come through! How many times have I gotten in Your way, delayed Your plans, or disrupted them altogether, simply because I think I know what is best? Far too many times. Today and every day, I choose You. I lay my burdens down, trust you to open and close doors, and give me discernment in every situation. I am ready! In Your Name, Which is Filled with All Grace, King Jesus. Amen!

Our soul has escaped as a bird from the snare of the fowlers;
The snare is broken, and we have escaped.
Our help is in the name of the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.

Dear Heavenly Father…Oh, how I love that You fight my battles for me! When I am tempted to get irritated, frustrated, angry, or hurt when I am wronged, or I see injustice of any kind, You are the one who steps in and holds my heart. You are the One who knows that my battles truly originate in the spiritual realm and with any person. I ask for Holy Spirit discernment as I move through my day in powerful prayer, binding any demonic activity set against me or those I love in the power of Lord Jesus’ Name! I do that now! Amen…

And he said, "Listen, all you of Judah and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you, King Jehoshaphat! Thus says the LORD to you: 'Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of this great multitude, for the battle is not yours, but God's."
2 Chronicles 20:15

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus...What joy and sense of fulfillment overflows in my heart when I hear You say to me that You delight in me! I know my stuff, sin, failures, and faults, yet Your precious blood has completely cleansed me, and now You call me Your own. The platform of grace that You have supplied so lavishly to every believer is my launching pad to greater freedom from all the things I have spoken of! I am not the person I once was, all because of Your Holy Spirit’s work in my life. I am ready to start this day! In Your Name Above All Names, King Jesus. Amen!

You shall no longer be termed Forsaken,
Nor shall your land any more be termed Desolate;
But you shall be called Hephzibah, and your land Beulah;
For the LORD delights in you,
And your land shall be married.
Isaiah 62:4

Dear Lord Jesus...With all that is taking place all around, my heart and mind are set upon You. In the secret place of Your presence, I sense the Holy Spirit overwhelming me and filling me with Your peace, love, and joy. Truly, when I abide on You—when all my priorities at home, work, school, marketplace, and ministry are centered on You as my preeminent pursuit, everything else simply falls into place. And those assaults of the enemy? In the power of Your Name, Lord Jesus, he is completely defeated. And it is in Your Name, Lord, I pray. Let’s go! Amen!

Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
John 15:4

I will not be shaken, moved, or deterred from pursuing You ardently today, even in the midst of work, home, or school. I pray for Holy Spirit wisdom and knowledge for every situation I may face today, and I pour out myself and ask that You would pour Yourself into me in greater measure, restoring my soul. In Your Name, Lord of Lords, King Jesus. Amen!

And He has made My mouth like a sharp sword;
In the shadow of His hand He has hidden Me,
And made Me a polished shaft;
In His quiver He has hidden Me.

I surrender afresh to Your will, because I don’t want to miss a thing. And the challenges I face, You are right here with me and in me. I give You glory and magnify You. In Your All-Powerful Name, I pray, King Jesus. Amen!

Rejoice in the Lord always.
Again I will say, rejoice!

Morning Moment of Prayer...

Dear Lord Jesus...How grateful can one person get? As I begin my day in Your presence, I am reminded that I can never outrun Your love. You have pursued, loved, and beckoned me to live life in Your felt presence through the Holy Spirit. Your Word never fails. Yet, I have often wasted so many minutes, days, and weeks. Yet, You never ever gave up on me, and as I ardently seek Your face now, I am blessed beyond imagining in Your love, no matter what my circumstances currently look like. I glorify and worship You in this moment and surrender all. In Your Omnipotent Name I seal this praise and prayer, King Jesus. Amen!

The faithful love of the LORD never ends!
His mercies never cease.

Dear Heavenly Father…It is when I am quiet and still, filled with Your Presence in the Holy Spirit, when I realize two things. One, that You alone are God. Two, that You truly are my refuge. With so many suffering in the world, I ask to think beyond my own needs and instead pray for Your Holy Spirit to bring revival for these people in my life ______ (name them). Lord, I pray that all the pieces come together to fulfill all Your timing for Your eternal purposes for them and that You would position me exactly where I need to be. In the Name of the Ancient of Days, Lord Jesus. Amen!

For we who have believed do enter that rest...
