Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it.
1 Peter 3:15

Good Morning Jesus,
I’m finally up early enough to watch the sunrise with You. It’s always a peaceful time of the day, to watch the world around me wake and to just be with You.

Jesus, I’ve not thought about my life as worship to You. It always seems to be on Sundays, or special times, but my everyday life?

I know you’ve always taught me to be ready to explain You to those who ask why I am the way I am, and I think I’m ready for that, but worship You with my life?

Help me to think on that today, Jesus, to realize that the way I live my life means more than the words I speak. If I’m living to glorify You, then when people ask, I don’t have to explain much but just tell them how I love You!

Thank You Jesus for bring this to my mind today. I want from this day forward for my life, my total life, to be an expression of worship, saying I love my LORD with all my heart, mind, and soul!
Amen

“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.”
Psalm 46:10

Good Morning My LORD,
You are my awesome God. I know I say that all the time, but each moment with You is such a blessing and I don’t have adequate words to fully proclaim Your greatness. I am so grateful that You know my heart and know how I feel about You!

I thank You, Father, for the rest You blessed me with, but I also want to thank You for the beautiful sunset last night. It reminded me how You surround me with Your presence. It was amazing to see Your design as You silhouetted the horizon with the rich orange and then soft pink. I was overwhelmed with a sense of peace and contentment like I’ve never known before. What a gift it was and thank You again for making me aware just how much You enjoy surprising me with Your beauty.

I would ask this morning, LORD, that I would be able to shine Your love to those I work with, live with and just enjoy being with. I want to honor You with my life and to glorify You all my days!
Amen

So now you Gentiles are no longer strangers and foreigners. You are citizens along with all of God’s holy people. You are members of God’s family.
Ephesians 2:19

Good Morning Father,
You are the God of the Universe and all it holds. You are the Great I AM and I adore You. How special that You would take this time to be with me, to listen to my needs and teach me about Yourself.

What a joy to my heart, Father, to know that I am a part of Your family. You have grafted me into Your love and bound me with Your Spirit. You do not recognize me as a foreigner or stranger, I am Yours, and You are mine.

Help me today to share You with others, to give them Your love, to show them just how much You desire to be with them today. Help me to see those I come in contact with as part of Your family also. If they don’t know You, help me to say the right words and do the right actions, so they too can claim to be in Your family!
Amen

If we are unfaithful, He remains faithful, for He cannot deny who He is.
2 Timothy 2:13

Good Morning Father,

Thank You so much for the extra sleep this morning. I guess I needed it and You provided. But, I will thank You even on those mornings I have to get up early, because I know You will give me the strength I need to get through a day. You are my very amazing God and I love You so much.

Father, I know I’m a sinner. I know I need a Savior. You knew it even before I was born! I also know I hurt You so many times through a day and I don’t want to. I would love to be as faithful to You, as You are to me. Yet, in this life, it won’t happen. That will not keep me from trying and leaning on Jesus to please You.

You are so faithful even to the faithless and I adore You. I praise You for who You are, You cannot change and that gives me such peace to know I can stand on You forever.

I ask for Your strength and courage today to live as You would have me live, to spread Your love and shine Your glory!
Amen

Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray. Mark 1:35

Good Morning My LORD,
How blessed I am to be with You right now. I needed to get up early today and You helped me to get out of bed. I needed to get my walk in early and You blessed me with the birds singing. The air was cool yet my heart was warm as I thought of You!

This is shaping up to be a very busy day, Jesus. You know the demands of the day and the demands I place upon myself. That is why being with You right now, before the day begins, is so important to me. 

For now I can sit and enjoy being with You. I can have the confidence that You will be with me as I go about my day. 

While I’m with You now, I know my thirst and hunger will be taken care of as You teach me Your Word. Help me as my day unfolds to remember that You are with me and I have the honor of glorifying You. I love You so much my Jesus!
Amen

But let all who take refuge in You rejoice; let them sing joyful praises forever. Spread Your protection over them, that all who love Your name may be filled with joy.
Psalm 5:11

Good Morning Yahweh,
I praise You for the freedom to be able to worship You today with others. You have blessed me with this freedom and often I take it for granted. There are many of Your children in this world that do not have the privilege to worship You in public. Help me to cherish this honor and I praise You for those who will worship You in secret. Their’s is a passion that is amazing.

As we come together to honor You today, LORD, please remind us that You are our refuge and shelter. You are our protector and firm foundation. We have the joy to sing Your praises and lift Your name on high.
I praise You for just being You. I love You so very much!
Amen

For we speak as messengers approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News. Our purpose is to please God, not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts.
1 Thessalonians 2:4

Good Morning My Love,
Thank You so very much for my night’s rest. You always know just how much sleep I need to be of service for You each day. Even when I don’t think it’s much, You always come through.

Your Word this morning made me stop and think. You have approved me to be a messenger for You! Even though I don’t consider myself worthy, You have given me consideration, examined my heart, and approved me as Your Voice! It boggles my mind!

It is Your pleasure for me to tell people about the Good News of Your Son. How much He loves us, how He died for us, and most important, how He lives for us!

But, I confess, LORD, that I don’t always want to do the speaking, and many times I don’t. Please forgive me, I am so faithless to Your faithfulness. 

Help me to remember today, Father, that my most important purpose in this life is to please You. I want You to smile upon me and that my life will give You the glory! I love You, LORD!
Amen

But you, O Lord, are a shield around me;
You are my glory, the one who holds my head high.
Psalm 3:3

Good Morning Jesus!
You are so wonderful to me. At every turn You greet me and welcome me with opened arms. How can I not love You? Why would I ever want to leave You?

I realize this morning that You are my shield and protector. You keep my soul safe and continue to teach and guide me through the day. You are the One I want to glorify with my life. You are the One I will proclaim as my Savior. Help me please, to live for You today. It is my hearts desire to share You with my corner of the world, so that others can know Your love.
Amen

Whatever is good and perfect comes down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow. He chose to give birth to us by giving us His true word. And we, out of all creation, became His prized possession.
James 1:17-18

Good Morning Jesus,
Your faithfulness to greet me each morning is such a delight to my heart. Getting out of bed is so much easier when I know You are waiting for me. 

How blessed I am to know that You are the same yesterday as You are today and will be tomorrow. You don’t change, You are my solid foundation. 

How blessed I am to have Your Word. Please give me a desire to place it on my heart and to live it in my life. I want to hunger and thirst for Your wisdom.

I am so humbled and honored my Jesus, that You would consider me a prized possession. I feel so unworthy of Your love and care, yet, I know I can’t live without it.
How blessed I am to know Your love!
Amen

You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in You, all whose thoughts are fixed on You! Isaiah 26:3

Good Morning Yahweh,
Thank You for this gorgeous morning! The sky is beautiful, the birds are singing and I am in Your presence.

I thank You for keeping me in Your perfect peace. It’s the peace that just doesn’t make sense to this world. At times, it doesn’t make sense to me! Yet, I am blessed to know it.

I thank You for helping me trust You more each day. I know there are things that I keep taking back, afraid You don’t realize just how important they are to me, but You are faithful to remind me that You are trustworthy and care for them more than I do.

I know I need to keep my eyes fixed on You throughout each day. I know there are times I don’t even acknowledge that You are with me and for those times, please forgive me. When I look down and see my problems and the giants of my life, please tip my head up so I can look into Your amazing eyes and just know that You are the Great I AM.
Love You LORD!
Amen
