To Encourage and Energize Others

Dear Lord please be with us this day and may You Holy Spirit please be guiding and protecting us in every thing that we say and do. Thank You for all of the great gifts and blessings and protection that You have given us and please forgive our sins the same as we forgive the mistakes of others.
Dear Lord please may this be a good day and please may the things that we try to do work out alright and for the best.
Dear Lord please help us see the positive side of all things on the paths that we are made to tread and please help us encourage and energize others with positive remarks and deeds, and please lead us not into negative discouraging actions or remarks that could derail or make difficult the plans and lives of others, in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.

1Th 4:1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 
1Th 4:2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. 
1Th 4:3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
1Th 4:4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
1Th 4:5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
1Th 4:6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified. 
1Th 4:7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness. 
1Th 4:8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit. 
1Th 4:9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another. 
1Th 4:10 And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more; 
1Th 4:11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you; 
1Th 4:12 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing. 

Php 4:4 Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice. 
Php 4:5 Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 
Php 4:6 Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
Php 4:7 And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
Php 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
