Fill In

Dear Lord please may this be a good day and may our path be guided by the light of the Holy Spirit. May we see opportunities to fill in empty places for people that we touch this day.

Help us to make them welcome and well seated at Your table of Grace. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

In Spite of

Dear Lord please be with us and may this be a good day in spite of what negativity might arise. Help us have a positive attitude and persevere on toward completion of whatever task is at hand.

Shared Wisdom

Dear Lord please be with us today and may this be one day that has satisfaction if only in our coming to an understanding of how helpless we are to help those who will not accept help. When we were young wisdom from experience could not be ours and rather than accept what our elders tried to share we blundered on to our own conclusion whether it be good or bad. Now we have some things to share that is obviously wise but no one will listen. Dear Lord please help us to know our limitations and rest in the faith of Your care and guidance, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Col 1:11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness;

Faith

Words

Dear Lord please be with us and may this be a good day. Help us to have good control of our tongue this day and not say things to hurt people or add to discontent. May the Holy Spirit guide us through the day and show us ways to make the day better for ourselves and others. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

May we feel the Holy Spirit by our side and in our decision making as we move forward down this day's path. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Ideas

Dear Lord please may this be a good day and thank You for all of the great gifts that You have given us. As we approach the problems of this day help us to be instilled with ideas that can give us interesting and productive solutions. May we finish this day with a feeling of satisfaction and peace of mind. Help us to walk this path humbly with the Holy Spirit as our Comforter and guide. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Help us to use the memories of the past only to prepare ourselves for what may come as we tread the path of this day. May we be wise and guided by the Holy Spirit in our thoughts and not bashed about because of mistakes held up for us to see by inner feelings of inferiority. May we feel the power of God the almighty instilled in our being with ability and confidence enabling us to cope with whatever comes, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Php 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

Temptation

Dear Lord may this be a good day and may the Holy Spirit guide us and protect us from the temptations that are strong and overpowering. Even tho we want to do the right things in our lives it is easy to be distracted by desires that are camouflaged as being enjoyable and innocent. If we have been hurt it is easy to justify giving in to temptation and desires that we know is not the will of God. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

KJV
1Co 10:13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.

Jas 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.

Money

Dear Lord please be with us and may this be a good day. Please may our time not be shaped around money, neither the lack of it, the desire for it, nor the opportunity for gain of it. Rather that the Holy Spirit take charge of our day and lead us to the joy of God's love and promises of spiritual prosperity. Please may we live in humbleness and not fall into the trap of vanity. In Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Motivation

Dear Lord please be with us, and may this be a good day. May our motivation be from the Holy Spirit and Your Will be done through us. Help us to touch other lives with Your love as we travel the paths of this day. Thank You for all of the great gifts that You have given us, and please forgive our mistakes and sins, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

Joh 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Ro 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,
Ga 3:22 But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.

Values

Dear Lord please may this be a good day today and may our pleasure be inspired by true values of love generated by the Holy Spirit.
