Verse of the Day: Psalms 51:10

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

Today, as it is the last day of the year, let us ask God to cleanse our hearts and to start a fresh with Him.  

Let us pray
 
Dear Jesus 

Thank you for allowing us to survive this year.  I know you have great things in store for us for the new year.  We are grateful that you have given us another chance at life and forgiveness.  We ask oh Lord today, that you will cleanse our hearts and our minds, help us to be fully focused and poised to walk down that path of righteousness you have set forth for us.  We know we may stumble Lord, but help us to also know that we can always and forever lean on You.  Keep us strong, healthy and wise and to be prepared for your coming.  In Jesus name, Amen

Verse of the Day: John 16:33

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Do you feel that anywhere you turn there's no way out for you? Are you feeling desperate for a breakthrough in your life but don't know where to turn?  Remember, in this world there is no human being that can give you total peace and satisfaction.  Turning to God is the only way to get you out of your troubles!

Let us pray for God to help us realize that He is the only way!

Dear Jesus

Thank you for your goodness and for your love.  Help us to realize that this world is full of corruption and trouble.  That even when things may seem right, if it doesn't involve you then it's not.   Help us Lord to distinguish right from wrong, good from evil and to put you first and foremost in our lives because you are our creator.

In Jesus Name we pray.   Amen

Verse of the Day: John 8:7

John 8:7
When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “Let any one of you who is without sin be the first to throw a stone at her.”

Do you find yourself condemning others? Do you find that you are talking about what others are doing but yet you are doing the same thing?

Let us pray to God to help us to look at our own lives and fix the mistakes we make.  Instead of looking at others.

Let us pray 

Dear Jesus thank you for your love and the life you have given us.  We realize Lord that we are not perfect, and that we need you to deter us from condemning others, we don't know what is going on in their lives or how they feel in their hearts.  Help us to be focused on our own lives and to fix the negativity we carry in our hearts towards others, so that we can help those who need you instead of chastising.  In Jesus name, Amen

Verse of the Day: Mark 16:15

Mark 16:15
He said to them, “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.

Are you telling others about Christ? Are you witnessing to those who don't know of him?

Let us pray for knowledge and understanding of God's word so we may reach those who need Him.


Let us Pray
Dear Jesus we thank you for your love and forgiveness, we thank you that you have enabled us, in this day and age, to have easy access to your word.  Help us to realize that we can spend a moment out of our busy day to catch up on your word, and another moment out of our day to spread the word.   You have given us such knowledge, so help us to use that knowledge to understand your teachings and to enlighten those who need you.  In Jesus name we pray, Amen

Verse of the day: Genisis 6:5

Genesis 6:5
The LORD saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.

Do you constantly have negative thoughts and can't find something nice to say to others? Evil doings does not only pertain to those who kill and steal.  It could be your negative thoughts about your neighbours or even complaining about the weather.  

Let us pray for strength to resist the devil and his evil ways.  Let us pray for positivity in our lives.


Thank you Jesus for your love and for giving us life.  Lord, we see the evil in this world and we realize that at the rate the world is going, your coming is very soon.  Help us not to contribute to the negativity and the evil in this world.  Help us to keep our hearts and our minds pure and solely focused on you.  Guide our tongues so that we may not speak evil, and our actions so we may not partake of evil doings.  Keep us in the realm of your love.  In Jesus name we pray.. Amen
