Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

 

Matthew 5:44-45 Jesus said, “I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them who hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; that ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven.”

 

1 Peter 4:16 but if anyone suffers as a Christian, he is not to be ashamed, but is to glorify God in this name.

 

Psalm 16:11 Thou wilt shew me the path of life: in Thy presence is fulness of joy; at Thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore.

 

1 John 4:12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

 

Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.   

 

May you bring the submission of your heart to the Father's will, the fruit of your lips in praise to the Lord, and the obedience of your hands to the work of the Spirit as offerings unto God so that you will never need come before Him without a sacrifice. Exodus 23

 

May you be ready and prepared to show God honor in public  gatherings with His people, bringing with you what the Lord has given you in secret, during private times, alone with Him, that the fruit which has been cultivated in tears may be shared with joy and thanksgiving to God. Exodus 23

 

May you listen carefully to what the Spirit tells you and obey all that the Father says, reverencing and not rebelling against the Name of the Lord, so that He will guard you along the way, and will oppose those who oppose you, as an enemy to your enemies, and bring you to the place He has prepared. Exodus 23

 

May you worship the Lord your God, and then His blessing will be on your food and water, for He will take away sickness from among you, and all will be fruitful in your land, and God will give you a full life span. Exodus 23

 

May you walk in victory, step by step, conquering the enemy, one by one, which inhabits the land God gives you, little by little, as you grow and increase enough to take possession of all He has for you. The Lord your God will go before you, sending His terror ahead of you, and throw confusion into every power and principality as you encounter them, making them turn their backs and run. Exodus 23

 

May you be willing to wait on God for His good pleasure in His perfect time, whether in the clouds on the top of the mountain or in the valley at its foot, patiently occupying until He calls, for in the silence your heart speaks loudly and He can show you what is in it, uncovered and revealed, ready to be laid as a sacrifice before Him, releasing that part of who you are to Him, to be cleansed from the past, sanctified to His use, and conformed to His image. Exodus 24

 

May you offer gifts to God, at the prompting of the Spirit, of the riches of your heart and the treasures of your mind, allowing skillful workers, in whom is the Spirit of God, to fashion from your gifts the tabernacle of God, following the pattern He has shown us, His Son, Jesus. Exodus 25

 

May you rest in the confidence of the workmanship of God, relying on His skill and not your own, accepting His choice of tools and not your own, yielding to His wisdom and not your own, submitting to His timing and not your own. When He uses you, you will still feel like yourself, unfinished, incomplete, often unchanged, but others, by the Spirit of God Who gives life, will see only the Lord and not you, just as gold covered the wood of the ark of the covenant. Exodus 25

 

Hear Me, My dear one. Do not just listen, but hear what I say. You have My Word, but you have seen what comes from merely the letter when the life is left out. 

My Spirit brings My Word to life, but your heart must be open to receive it. From My heart flows the grace, the compassion, the cheer, the mercy, the encouragement, the gentleness, the meekness, yes, and even the strength for joyful acceptance. 

These are the elements of My life, the abundant life, the life of the Spirit that bears fruit and makes your time on earth more than a dreary endurance of patient resignation. 

Open your heart to Me. Tune your heart to Me. Submit your heart to Me. Know the joyful hope and vibrant resonance that brings the life of confident overcoming from the heavenlies into your home and your work. 

Hear what the Spirit has to say, for He will reveal Me to the world through you, if you will hear My voice and obey it.

 

May you ever be watchful and always remain ready as you daily occupy and serve, preparing obediently, just as Noah did, for that which has never been seen but has been promised by the Lord. You can be certain He will come at an hour unexpected, as a thief in the night, to punish the disobedient and to plunder the treasures unlawfully held captive by the master of the house. Matthew 24

 

May the Lord return and find you faithfully doing the work He has assigned you, as is befitting a wise and faithful servant, for He will bless you by putting such faithful ones as yourself in charge of everything He owns. Matthew 24

 

May you praise the Lord for He has saved your from your enemies, refusing to let them triumph over you. Psalm 30

 

May the Lord your God heed your plea and give you back your health, bringing you back from the brink of the grave, from death itself into His life, which is life abundant. Psalm 30

 

May you join His saints in singing thanks to the holy name of the Lord, for though His anger lasts a moment, His favor lasts for life; though weeping may go on all night, in the morning there is joy. Psalm 30

 

May the Lord hear you  and have pity and help you, turning your sorrow into joy, replacing your clothes of mourning with clothing of joy, so you may sing glad praises to the Lord your God, thanking Him forever! Psalm 30
