Verse of the Day
All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work. II Timothy 3:16-17 (NLT)

Dearest loving Abba Father, I come to You today and invite Your will to be done in my life. Have Your way in my heart and let everything I do bring glory to You. I choose to bless You at all times. I choose to set the tone to receive Your favor, grace and mercy. Thank You for Your faithfulness to me and for giving me the power to make a change in my life. Thank You for Your hand of blessing on my life. Help me develop a vision for the abundant life You have in store and show me how to be a blessing everywhere I go. Today I refuse bitterness. I refuse to allow the past to keep me stuck. Right now I forgive those who have hurt me. I pray blessing on them and pray they would come to know Your truth. Thank You for setting my heart free today.

Thank you for wanting to be with us even as you chose us to be with you. May we know you more intimately and learn to enjoy your presence more consistently.
Father, I come to You with so many needs. I am driven by so many emotions. I need You to correct my thinking, heal my memories and help me revision who I am. Father, I have come to my senses. I am coming to you. Help me see myself through Your eyes. Give me the alertness today to guard against the trials and false teachings that I will face today. Help me to have a spirit of rejoicing every moment of this day. Thank you Lord that you can give me strength to live every moment of this day for You. Keep my belief in You strong and help me to trust You, to do good, to cast all my concerns upon You and to commit each situation I face to You.

Prayer Quote of the day
It has been said that no great work in literature or in science was ever wrought by a man who did not love solitude. We may lay it down as an elemental principle of religion, that no large growth in holiness was ever gained by one who did not take time to be often long alone with God.
