Good morning, Lord Jesus. Help me begin this day and every day embraced by my Father, centered in Christ, and filled with the Holy Spirit. ...
“My heart is stirred by a noble theme as I recite my verses to the king; my tongue is the pen of a skillful writer” (Psalm 45:1).
Let everything I write, everything I speak, everything I do be an offering to You, my Lord. Put Your thoughts in my mind, Your desires in my heart, Your words in my mouth. Express Yourself through my life every day.
“I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me” (Galatians 2:20). “Whatever (I) do, (I willing choose to) do it all to the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31). By the power of Your grace, working in me, in “whatever (I) do, (I) work at it with all (my) heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since (I) know that (I) will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ (I am) serving” (Colossians 3:23-24).
So as I begin my day, I rededicate my life, my words, all that I am and all that I have, to You -- the God I love and the God I serve, with all glory to God, my Savior, my Lord, my King. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
My family, may you be anointed by the Spirit and Ever-Abiding Presence of the Lord in all you write and speak and do this day and every day to the glory of our God and King, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friends!
