Oh Lord, I love and honor You, this day and forever. May Your will be done in my life forevermore. Take me as I am and transform me into Your right standing. Cause me to live a life that is pleasing in Your sight. Give me over to doing Your good works. Lead me into Your light and cause all the darkness to scatter. I don’t wish to be affiliated with the things of this world any longer. Keep me set apart from anything that causes me to sin. Lord, Your ways lead to eternal life and anything else leads to destruction and hell. I choose this day to follow You and no longer be a slave to sin or temptation. May the devil no longer have any power over me. Come and abide with me. Give me over to Your desires and I will do them. Give me wisdom, that I might learn and be filled by the King of glory. I have lived in and tasted enough of what the world wants to give me and fill me with, but if it doesn’t lift You up, I am ready to give it up. Let nothing else keep me apart from You again. I confess that I am a sinner and need You in my life. You are the Lord God of the heavens and I believe in You, Jesus. You are my Savior, and only through You can I go forth in your light unto this lost generation. I lay down all my sins as Your feet, that You may take them away and cast them into the pit. Brake down every stronghold in my life. Break every chain. Transform my life into the person You wish me to be. I am ready. Forgive me and find mercy for my soul. I love You, Jesus. Amen.

1 John 3:6-8 (KJV)
6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
7 Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.
8 He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Today’s Prayer (08/30/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that more people will come to You, even as their personal Savior. That people would begin to cry out to You as Job did in his afflictions. Then, would You also come to their rescue also. Too many people are currently living a life of sin, where darkness abounds and death is at their door. People do not realize that playing around with sin is like playing with fire. It leads a person to hell and destruction come death. How this is the time to repent of our sins, while we still have breath. Even if we are living our life for You, Jesus, I pray that this faith will not grow dim. Life’s trials face everybody in life, no matter how strong they are in the faith or not. Therefore, it is up to each of us to continue to call upon Your Name in prayer often. To lift You up above all things and to express everything that is in our hearts to You. Lord, I know that You do not wish that we hold back anything in pray. For everything that we have to say is important. Even if we are currently suffering and what we have to say are more questions than thanks, it is needed. Surely, wisdom is necessary in these moments, though giving thanks is also very important. Therefore, help people know that in our darkest moments to always remember to find things to be grateful for and express them to You in prayer. Lord, I wish to always have You come and answer me that I might hear Your voice, but I know that You also use the Bible and other people to speak to me as well. Therefore, help me to always be found learning from You, no matter what it is and who it is that You send to me. I love You, God. I give You glory and praise, this day and forever. Amen.
Job 38:17-20
Job 38:17-20 (KJV)
17 Have the gates of death been opened unto thee? or hast thou seen the doors of the shadow of death?
18 Hast thou perceived the breadth of the earth? declare if thou knowest it all.
19 Where is the way where light dwelleth? and as for darkness, where is the place thereof,
20 That thou shouldest take it to the bound thereof, and that thou shouldest know the paths to the house thereof?

Today’s Prayer (08/29/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will come to know You personally. That they will begin to fear You and do as You say. Truly, the rest of Your creation hear and obey Your voice, but only a few people on earth can do the same. How is it that animals, fish, insects, and even the weather patterns obey You, but we cannot do the same? I will never understand why there are so many atheists out there when the truth of Your creation is so evident. How beautiful are the mountains, valleys, oceans, rivers, trees, flowers, animals, fish, and even people on this earth. You are the great and magnificent architect of all things heaven and earth. We even have Your written Word which explains how the creation took place, which is marvelous. Lord, I cannot understand how people that have read the Bible would not have a belief in You also. That their faith would not be evident in how they would live their lives. So many people are so interested in doing their own things, but still many of them say they believe in You. This makes no sense, for to believe in You is to also follow and obey You. Surely, these people are asleep and need to be awakened. I cannot do this on my own, but need You to speak through me and other men and women of God. Fill us with the Holy Spirit, that we might lead them to know You. Keep us in Your bounteous light, that people will see us and also desire to know You and give You praise. I love You, Lord. I give You glory and praise, this day and forever. Amen.
Job 37:23,24
Job 37:23,24 (KJV)

24 Men do therefore fear him: he respecteth not any that are wise of heart.

Today’s Prayer (08/28/2020)
Oh Lord, my God, please hear my cries and heal my sister Heather. She is suffering right now because of flu-like symptoms and is not getting any better. Even though she is tested and it isn’t COVID, I worry because of her health. I know that You heard the prayer that I offered up for her at her house. You were with me as I prayed. Even as I asked that You would cast out the afflictions in her body and heal her, You did this with me. Lord, thank You for Your presence and for leading me in the prayer through the Holy Spirit. It was evident that I was not alone in the prayer, for You were there. All I ask now is that she recovers from her sickness in full. Come to her now and deliver unto her peace. Uplift her and help her know that she is loved. I did my best to uplift her and bring comfort to her in my time with her. Now, I pray that You will do the rest. Lord, prayers are going up for her from all around the globe. Please listen to them also. I know that prayer can move mountains and that more people who pray will allow there to be mighty miracles that have never been seen on earth. I believe in You, Jesus. You are my healer and my fortress. Thank You for delivering me from my bondage and for consoling me in my trials. I have suffered much because of sickness also, and You have helped me along the way. If it is Your will also, will You also bring full healing to my body? I have suffered from a chronic chest congestion for some time and pray that You will heal me. I love You, Lord. Only with You in my life am I see free. There is freedom in the Lord. Amen.
James 5:14,15
James 5:14,15 (KJV)
14 Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord:
15 And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

Today’s Prayer (08/27/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will remember You all their days. That people will understand that doing Your will one time a week does not make them Your disciple. Lord, help people know that abiding in the things of this world is evil. That we are to be separate and only through Your presence in our lives can we achieve this. Lord, You make us different. We cannot flee iniquity on our own, but only if we start abiding in You each day. Lord, be with us always. Help us gain Your understanding and begin to distinguish what is true and what is false. Lead us far from sin and into Your light. I need You, Lord. Be my teacher at all times in my life and help me to always know Your ways and not my own. Help me to be a wise teacher and not a person who treats other people with animosity or disrespect. I want to share the truth of the gospel, but do not wish to skew the importance of it or change it in any way. May the simplicity of the gospel be upon my lips when I speak. And please call more people in the faith to walk in it. I know that You have done this before, but these people who have resisted You need to be awakened from their sleep. Too many people are on the path that leads to destruction and need to be made aware of this before it is too late. I wish to see more people be saved and come to know You as their personal Savior, Jesus. You are mighty to save and I love You. I give You glory and praise, this day and forever. May Your Name be glorified and lifted up high. Amen.
Job 36:10-12
Job 36:10-12 (KJV)
10 He openeth also their ear to discipline, and commandeth that they return from iniquity.

12 But if they obey not, they shall perish by the sword, and they shall die without knowledge.

Today’s Prayer (08/26/2020)
Oh Lord, I give You honor and praise this day and forevermore. You are my God and my Savior. I lift my hands up high and glorify Your great Name. On bended knees do I fall down at Your feet in worship. Thank You, Jesus, for redeeming me from the fall. I had no way of changing my wicked ways, but You came and did the work I could not on the cross. There was only darkness to be found in my life, but You have come and scattered it all. Where light abounds, I am there with You also now. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You for saving a wretch like me. I would not be where I am today if I was not washed by Your blood. What a gracious gift it is to know that You suffered and died for my sins. Wow! Thank You, Lord. I owe everything to You. I am not worthy of Your offering for mankind but come humbly at Your feet in thanks. I bless You, God. Lord, come and abide with me. I love Your presence and wish to know You better each day. Teach me all things that I need to know in life. Guide me by the hand and give me the necessary guidance and direction I need. Allow the comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, to help me stay strong in the faith. I know that there are many evil forces out there and I do not wish to fall victim to the lies of the enemy again. So keep me upright and righteous in Your sight. The world can think what they want about me and my stance with You, but I know that in the end, I will be with You forever. I don’t need the luxuries of this life, but only the spiritual gifts that come down from my Father, who is in heaven. I love You, Lord. Amen.

Psalm 34:1-3 (KJV)

Today’s Prayer (08/25/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will stop judging one another and defaming their good name. So many people attack different people in the faith when they know nothing about their deep and intimate relationship with You, God. This is very disheartening and I pray that if people have concerns about someone that they will come to the person themselves and not spread lies. And if people come to the person who they think is in sin or has said false things, then have them come to them with love and respect, not with any anger. Surely, a spirit of animosity is never going to help anyone come to know You, God, even if they are wrong. Lord, help people know that we cannot be the ones convicting people of sin, but only Your Holy Spirit. Therefore, we must be led by You and not ourselves. Otherwise, we may be jumping the gun and saying and doing something that we will soon regret. Lord, I have many people who think I am a false prophet and a false teacher, which is hurtful. They say that what I teach is wrong according to their own beliefs. Therefore, people have spread lies about me to other people and then come at me with anger and disdain. Lord, help these people know my true heart for You. May they know that I love You with all my heart, mind, soul, and strength. Everything I do in life is for You. You are my Redeemer and the Lord God of my life. I wish people would want to talk to me about my faith instead of attacking me. Now I know how Job was feeling when He was being persecuted by his friends and other people. Lord, may Your will be done in my life. I need Your understanding from the Bible and prayer. Teach me Your ways and don’t let my views change because of people’s own views on things. I love You, God. I give You praise and glory. Amen.
Job 19:25-27
Job 19:25-27 (KJV)
25 For I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth:
26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:
27 Whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold, and not another; though my reins be consumed within me.

Today’s Prayer (08/24/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people in the faith will learn to watch their mouths and how they come at people via chat/texting also. Surely, to put down another person is evil and does not come from You, but the devil. I wish that people would learn their lesson when they leave from conversations and the other person is now feeling crummy and even depressed. I just can’t believe it, Lord, that people can call themselves Christians when they are hostile towards other believers. This makes me sad that we have these ravening wolves in the church. I say this because I can’t see them as Christians or Your saints if they cannot treat others with kindness and respect. Surely, I know that I was once like them and was very disrespectful to people and I am sorry about my past. Please forgive me for my pride and short cummings. As for now, I do not wish to hurt anyone, no matter their faith. If there is something that needs to be addressed, I will do it with love and respect. May Your will be done in my life and not my own from now on. I know how destructive I can be around others if I think I know it all, so please keep me on the low down. Help me stay focused on You and not be elevated in pride. I am happy to be brought low and humbled in Your sight. It brings me great joy to know that Your will is now being done and not my own. Lord, I admit that I do not know everything concerning the Bible and never will. All I know is that the Bible is true and I gain more understanding from daily it as I read. Your insight and knowledge have moved me to love You more and my neighbor more. Thank You for reaching me and for bringing me into Your light. I love You, Lord. I give You praise and honor, this day and forever. Amen.
Job 34:22-25
Job 34:22-25 (KJV)
22 There is no darkness, nor shadow of death, where the workers of iniquity may hide themselves.
23 For he will not lay upon man more than right; that he should enter into judgment with God.
24 He shall break in pieces mighty men without number, and set others in their stead.
25 Therefore he knoweth their works, and he overturneth them in the night, so that they are destroyed.
Today’s Inspiration (08/24/2020)
True believers in the faith do not attack others, but reason with them with love if answers are needed. And Jesus helps us do this.
