Lord, thank You for giving me a new day. I’m grateful for keeping me safe through the night. You are my protector and safe place, and I thank You for Your mercy and faithfulness that never end. Please help me start this day with a thankful heart. (Psalm 118:24)
When we come to God, the first thing we should do is be thankful. Paul talked about this in Philippians 4:6. Thanksgiving should always come first when we pray. Today, we should thank God for keeping us safe last night, for His mercy, His grace, and His love.
Father, I give myself to You today. Teach me to follow Your guidance in everything I do. Show me the way to go, and give me wisdom to trust the path You lead me on. (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us that God leads those who know they need Him. Why is God’s leadership so important? It’s because we can’t lead ourselves. What seems right to us might not be part of God’s plan. If we want our day to go well, we need to follow God’s guidance.
Heavenly Father, bless me as I go about my day. Let today be full of chances to grow and serve in line with Your plan. (Jeremiah 29:11)
God has a purpose for each of us. When we live in His purpose, we feel fulfilled. Every day is a chance to follow His plan for us. If we step outside His purpose, it won’t end well. So, pray for guidance to live in God’s plan today.
Lord, fill me with Your love. Teach me to show love to everyone I meet. Help me to be kind and reflect Your grace, even when it’s hard. Let everything I say and do honor You. (Ephesians 5:2)
God wants us to walk in love, even when it’s not easy. Some people don’t seem to deserve love, but Jesus told us to love even our enemies. It’s not always simple, so we should ask God for help to show love, no matter the situation.
Father, guide me to meet the right people today. Let my connections be meaningful and part of Your plan for my life. Help me build relationships that please You. (Proverbs 13:20)
Praying for the right connections is important. You don’t want to meet the wrong people or get into bad relationships. Pray for wisdom to recognize when someone isn’t right for your life and for grace to build healthy connections.
Lord, help me stay in Your will today. Teach me to hear Your voice and stay away from things that distract me from Your purpose. Let my choices honor You. (Romans 12:2)
Staying in God’s will is very important. It’s about hearing His voice and saying “yes” when He speaks. Pray for strength to make choices that align with God’s plan and bring Him glory.
Father, keep me close to You today. Help me stay aware of Your presence and keep my heart connected to You. Let me grow closer to You as I go through my day. (John 15:5)
Staying connected to God should always be a priority. As the day gets busy, ask God to keep you aware of His presence. Pray that your heart remains sensitive to Him, showing your desire to walk with Him every moment.
