Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory for this new day to be still in the moment and remember I have a special purpose here on earth. {“But I have raised you up for this very purpose, that I might show you my power and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth” (Exodus 9:16).} Thank You that Your purpose for me cannot be undone. {“I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted” (Job 42:2). } Father God, thank You that our hearts don’t reveal our purpose. But your heart reveals our purpose as we read the bible and walk and talk with You. {“Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails” (Proverbs 19:21).} Thank You that when we are quiet You can reveal so much more than we ever could by ourselves. {“The purposes of a person’s heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out” (Proverbs 20:5).} Thank You that when we are obedient to You Lord Jesus, You fulfill Your good purpose for our lives. {“Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose” (Philippians 2:12-13).} Thank You Lord Jesus, that You are always working behind the scenes for our good. {“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose” (Romans 8:28).} Thank You Lord Jesus, for this holy life of worship You have so freely given us grace. {“He has saved us and called us to a holy life—not because of anything we have done but because of his own purpose and grace” (2 Timothy 1:9).} Lord Jesus, I am believing healing, unity, righteous justice, strength, comfort, and grace to be worked out in every life and situation today in Your Precious Name. Amen and Amen
