Jesus, You are the Solid Rock that keeps us anchored in this vast landscape of shifting sands. Our unfading hope is secured in Your finished work on the cross and our guide map is the inspired Holy Scriptures that make us wise unto salvation. Help us to resist the temptation to look at anything the god of this age offers seeking to blind the minds of unbelievers. Instead we steadfastly follow Your clearly prescribed plan for living a life that pleases You. We offer to You our lives as living sacrifices. May they be holy and pleasing to You. Amen ..read more

Father, You have placed authority figures in our lives from birth to our final days on earth. Some bless us greatly while others challenge us fiercely. In areas where You have given us the privilege of being an authority figure may we be responsible role models, for we know it is not just the talk that people hear, but the walk that people see.  As we are called to submit to our family, spiritual leaders, employer, and governmental leaders may we do so with cheerfulness so that we are a blessing rather than a grievous burden. But when those to whom we submit conflict with Your supreme aut ..read more

Father, when I gave you my heart, I made the willful choice to no longer conform to the trends and philosophies of this world.  Instead I ask You to daily renew my mind so that I see this world and its philosophies through the eyes of Christ testing daily what is truth from what is error, for I want to know what Your will is for my life, Your good, pleasing and perfect will. May Scripture always be our reference point and Your Spirit be our Guide as we are exposed to countless philosophies based on human understanding and the basic principles of this world rather than Your eternal, founda ..read more

Father, may my life be marked by faithfulness and integrity. I know that these character traits are not developed over a short period of time but over the duration of my life, most especially during the challenging times. Obedience does bring blessing and it also brings eternal reward. Help me not to become weary in doing good, for at the proper time that You have ordained, I will reap a harvest if I do not give up. Help me to practice the small steadiness of every day. Amen ..read more

Father, when times are tough, if we fully rely on You, we find that You are enough to get us through that which would otherwise overwhelm us.  You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear though the earth give way and the mountains be cast into the sea. You are Creator of the universe, Creator of our human existence and You are in control of all that concerns us. We trust You for that which distresses us including those whom You have placed in our care. We must go through many hardships to enter Your kingdom, but You go before us, prepare the ..read more

Father, I greatly anticipate the supernatural return of Your beloved Son at the sound of the trumpet call.

Knowing of my deficiencies and failings, even as I pursue a godly lifestyle, I find great consolation in the tender mercies of a loving God who welcomes me to a new heaven and new earth. It is at this great transition that the battle of flesh vs. spirit fi ..read more

Father, as we read through the Old Testament book after book, chapter after chapter we read of numerous leaders including two women that You raised up to be rescuers of the Israelites who got into trouble time after time, most often after their hearts wandered off to other idols instead of the one true God. But the people of Israel are Your chosen possession, out of all the people on the face of the earth, so You intervened time and time again to save them from their own self-imposed demise. Today we come against their enemies, those such as Hamas and other proxies who are determined to make t ..read more

Father, today we pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the entire country of Israel. We pray for peace in the Middle East and in our world. We pray that many will this day receive the Prince of Peace, Jesus, as their Messiah.  For when the roll is called up yonder we will see those from every tribe and nation, all peoples and languages, standing together as one united in the name of Christ shouting out with a loud voice, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever an ..read more
