Isaiah 12:5

Sing to the Lord, for He has done wonderful things. Make known His praise around the world.
Isaiah 12:5

Good Morning My LORD,

You are my great and mighty King and I adore You. This time is our special time. I come to You to learn and grow, and You never miss an opportunity to be with me. Oh, how I love You!

You have given me a voice. Not just to talk or sing, but to proclaim the wonderful things You have done for me. You want me to tell others about Your saving grace and love.

But, Father, I seem to get so tongue tied and just can’t get it out. I’ve tried and then get laughed down or looks of doubt come my way. How can I do what You ask?

Oh, yes, with You, Spirit. I don’t have to do this on my own, You are with me. Help me please, to forget about what others think, help me to focus on Your face and love. Please give my voice courage to speak of what You have done in my life. I want to speak so others can have Your presence in their lives also. I truly want to share You with others.

Thank You, Spirit, for this teaching today. With Your guidance, I will speak about Your love!

Amen

Psalm 68:4-5

Sing praises to God and to His name! Sing loud praises to Him who rides the clouds. His name is the Lord— rejoice in His presence! Father to the fatherless, defender of widows—this is God, whose dwelling is holy.
Psalm 68:4-5

Good Morning Abba,

I want to sing Your praises this morning and all through the day. You, the Creator of all things, You are with me now. How awesome is my God!

Your name, Abba, is such a blessing to me. I am so humbled and honored that You find me worthy to be called Your child. I take such joy to know You!

You love to take of me, Your care is constant and personal. Yet, You take care of everyone that comes to You. You are the father or spouse to those who don’t have an earthly family. You are my awesome God!

You are holy, my LORD. Perfect in every way and I will sing Your praises today and all the days to come. I love You so very much!

Amen

John 6:29

Jesus told them, “This is the only work God wants from you: Believe in the One He has sent.”
John 6:29

Good Morning Jesus!
It’s good again to be with You today. To know that You have prepared this day to be a special one for me is very exciting. To know that You will walk with me through this day gives me the hope and joy to face whatever may happen. Thank You for being my God and Savior.
There are days, LORD, that I want to get out and go. Do many good works for You and proclaim Your word and to love all I meet. While I want to do good for You, I also forget my most important and only work. I am only supposed to work at believing in You. It seems too little, I want to do more. But, again You tell me to only work at believing in You. I realize that as I believe in You, all my other activities and work become worthwhile. As I work to believe in You, I will come to know You more. Best part? As I work to believe in You, I will be pleasing You!
I love You so much Jesus!
Amen

Ecclesiastes 11:7

Light is sweet; how pleasant to see a new day dawning.
Ecclesiastes 11:7

Good Morning Father,

You are the love of my life. You surround me each day and watch over me every night. What more could I ask for?

Once again You have blessed me with a treasure from Your Word. And what more could I say but, ‘light is sweet; how pleasant to see a new day dawning.’

Every morning Your mercies are new and You pour them out on me. Every day is a new adventure to spend with You.

I want to thank You this morning for all You have given me. I do not deserve it, but I will praise You at every turn of the day and know You are my God! I love You, LORD!

Amen

Psalm 94:19

When doubts filled my mind, Your comfort gave me renewed hope and cheer.
Psalm 94:19

Morning Jesus,

Thank You for the beauty of this morning. The sky is blue and the breeze is blowing. No matter what the weather is outside, You keep me comfortable and at ease with Your presence.

Thank You for being my LORD.

Please forgive me for having so many doubts in my mind. I often wonder if I’m doing Your will, or should I be doing more or less. I often doubt my worthiness to be with You and wonder why You stay with me. And You know I often doubt the abilities You have given me.

Please forgive me, Jesus. In my mind I do know that You have me right where I should be. I need to have the confidence to know You are molding me into the person You desire me to be. Please wash me with Your Spirit and rinse away my doubts this morning.

Just being with You for these moments and letting me unload on You, Jesus, has given me new hope. You have comforted me with Your presence and I feel I can greet the day now with Your eyes and love. You have blessed me once again with Your wonderful wisdom and insights.

I love You, Jesus!
Amen

Nehemiah 9:12

You led our ancestors by a pillar of cloud during the day and a pillar of fire at night so that they could find their way.
Nehemiah 9:12

Good Morning LORD,

What a wonderful way to start the day. When I am with You I will be able to face anything. When I am scared, LORD, please be my courage, when I am tired, please be my strength, but over all the all the day, please be the love that I show to everyone I meet.

It must have been wonderful to be Your child during the exodus, LORD. To visibly see You leading at night with the pillar of fire and the cloud during the day, that would have been amazing. Such security to know that You were near.

But, I’m also reminded that they didn’t have the blessing of Your Spirit to guide them, as I do. Spirit, You are so committed to being with me that You moved right in. I have the opportunity for You to guide me during the day and keep me safe at night. Through You, Spirit, I can sit and learn from Your great wisdom and love.

I may not have the pillar of fire or the cloud to guide me, but all the better to have You live within me! You are my joy and love.

Amen

2 Timothy 1:13-14

Hold on to the pattern of wholesome teaching you learned from me—a pattern shaped by the faith and love that you have in Christ Jesus. Through the power of the Holy Spirit who lives within us, carefully guard the precious truth that has been entrusted to you.
2 Timothy 1:13-14

Good Morning Christ,

How are You this morning? What a delight to be with You now.

You amaze me, Jesus. You consider me trustworthy. You have deposited Your Word into my life for safe keeping. How special You make me feel.

I know You have much more to teach me, Jesus, I’m just in the beginning of learning. How exciting it is to be in school with You! You are molding me into the person You designed me to be from the very beginning. I bow before You, the King of the Universe, and praise You for all You have done, so I can be here with You now. How I love You, Jesus. Help me guard Your truth, not to horde, but to have an accurate accounting to share with someone today.

Thank You for counting me worth.
Amen

Psalm 91:1

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.
Psalm 91:1

Good Morning Jesus!

You are my King and I so adore You. You have guided me through these past few days with such tender care. You have brought me through the chaos of my choices and given me rest and renewal with You. Oh, how I love You!

I praise You, Jesus, for the peace and rest I find in You. I know I can find shelter with You anytime through the day or night. You are always ready and excited for me to turn into Your arms.

As I navigate through the day, please help me to remember that You are right here with me. Help me to remember that You, Spirit, live within me. Not beside, or in front or in back, but inside me, guiding my thoughts and asking for obedience. I want so much to please You, but I can’t without Your help.

My peace for this day will come from You.
Amen

Luke 12:6-7

“What is the price of five sparrows—two copper coins? Yet God does not forget a single one of them. And the very hairs on your head are all numbered. So don’t be afraid; you are more valuable to God than a whole flock of sparrows.  Luke 12:6-7

Good Morning Jesus,

Do You realize who much I look forward to being with You in the mornings? It has become so precious to me, because You are here, ready to listen, excited to teach and love me into Your presence.

Yet, even knowing all this, there are times I feel left out, out of sync and disconnected. I’m not sure what’s happening when I feel this way. I don’t know if I’ve moved away from You, or if I’m just tired and don’t realize it. I do know I don’t like feeling this way.

Thank you so very much for Your Word this morning, Jesus. You once again know what I need to hear, that You care for me and I’m valuable to You. My heart soars with that knowledge. I want to shout for joy and proclaim Your love to the world!

I also realize that when I feel disconnected, that’s exactly what it is, my feelings. I know they are not always accurate and I need to trust in Your Word more than myself. Help me please to take my eyes off me and lift them to Your glory and love.

Thank You this morning, LORD, for giving me a reason to keep on going. You are my wonderful Jesus and I love You!

Amen

Matthew 5:16-17

“You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Matthew 5:14-16

Good Morning Jesus!

Thank You for waking me with Your presence this morning. Once again You have reminded me that Your mercies are new for this day. Help me please, to see Your presence in and around me. Open my eyes so I will see what You see. Thank You for the beauty of this morning.

You remind me today that I am a light to my world. I am Your light, Your representative to those I live and work with and anyone I will meet today. That’s kind of scary, Jesus. I know I don’t always live up to Your expectations, actually, rarely do I live up to them. Please forgive me when I slip.

Again, I will fall on You, Spirit, to do the shining. I know I’m not good enough, but You are. With You in my life, anything is possible. You live in me to glorify my Creator. It’s not me that I will shine today, but You.

How amazing You are, the great I AM!

Amen
