A Time for Everything.
There is a time for everything,
And a season for every activity under the heavens:
A time to be born and a time to die,
A time to plant and a time to uproot,
A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to tear down and a time to build,
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to mourn and a time to dance,
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, A time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
A time to search and a time to give up,
A time to keep and a time to throw away,
A time to tear and a time to mend,
A time to be silent and a time to speak,
A time to love and a time to hate,
A time for war and a time for peace.
What do workers gain from their toil? I have seen the burden God has laid on the human race. He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end. I know that there is nothing better for people than to be happy and to do good while they live. That each of them may eat and drink, and find satisfaction in all their toil—this is the gift of God. I know that everything God does will endure forever; nothing can be added to it and nothing taken from it. God does it so that people will fear him. Whatever is has already been, and what will be has been before; and God will call the past to account. And I saw something else under the sun: In the place of judgment—wickedness was there, in the place of justice—wickedness was there. I said to myself, “God will bring into judgment both the righteous and the wicked for there will be a time for every activity, a time to judge every deed.” I also said to myself, “As for humans, God tests them so that they may see that they are like the animals. Surely the fate of human beings is like that of the animals; the same fate awaits them both: As one dies, so dies the other. All have the same breath; humans have no advantage over animals. Everything is meaningless. All go to the same place; all come from dust, and to dust all return. Who knows if the human spirit rises upward and if the spirit of the animal goes down into the earth?” So I saw that there is nothing better for a person than to enjoy their work, because that is their lot. For who can bring them to see what will happen after them?
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live for you. Father God, embrace those who need healing, strength, protection, justice, financial stability or just to know you more, what ever their need we believe, because you watch over all of us. We thank you for your joy, love and peace you fill us with everyday. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen
And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo(Laugh Outloud), I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to walk in the path you have provided for me. Father God, I pray for others who need your love and support. Thank you for showing me my heart and where it needs repair. You are my strength and comfort. You have woven your word through the fabric of my life, and I am so grateful. It has brought me riches untold that can’t be bought or sold, and I thank you with all my heart! I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen, Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. Psalm 119:105
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to rest in you. Father God, what a comfort I find in these words. Lord Jesus, when I become weary in meeting each day’s demands and opportunities, remind me of your promise to renew my strength when I put my hope and trust in you. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Isaiah 40:28-31
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live for you every moment. Help me to have a heart like yours. Father God, I pray for those who are hurting, whether they need healing, strength, comfort, justice, financial stability or any kind of miracle in their life. Let them know you have never left them. Father God, I am overwhelmed by your love for each one of us. Thank you that each one of us are special to you. Help us to treasure others for the jewels that they are, and use me to make a difference in their lives, as you have in the past guided others to make a difference in my life and continue to do so. Life is worth so much more walking with you Lord Jesus. I thank you, praise and give you all the glory and honor in your precious name Lord Jesus. Amen.
And the LORD shall be seen over them, and his arrow shall go forth as the lightning: and the LORD God shall blow the trumpet and shall go with whirlwinds of the south. The LORD of hosts shall defend them; and they shall devour and subdue with sling stones; and they shall drink and make a noise as through wine; and they shall be filled like bowls, and as the corners of the altar. And the LORD their God shall save them in that day as the flock of his people: for they shall be as the stones of a crown, lifted up as an ensign upon his land. For how great his goodness is, and how great is his beauty! corn shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids. Zechariah 9:14-17
Dear blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live for you. Father God, thank you for your mercy and power that is new everyday. Thank you for sending your son to save me and others from sin, to realize you have always been one with us. Father God, while I’m living my day-to-day life, help me to keep my ears open and my gifts at the ready for you. I thank you for all the precious people you have sent in my path as guidance to healing this broken life and making me whole again. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
This is a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptation. For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, specially of those that believe. These things command and teach. Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity. Till I come, give attendance to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine. Neglect not the gift that is in thee, which was given thee by prophecy, with the laying on of the hands of the ‘presbytery’ a governing body of elders. 1 Timothy 4:9-14
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live life. Father God, You are my God and I praise you. I pray that you will be the God of others who need healing, strength, comfort, peace, financial stability, or whatever their need may be. I pray that you will pour out your blessings on them and be their song. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus Amen.
Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the LORD, and spake, saying, I will sing unto the LORD, for he hath triumphed gloriously: the horse and his rider hath he thrown into the sea. The LORD is my strength and song, and he is become my salvation: he is my God, and I will prepare him an habitation; my father’s God, and I will exalt him. The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name. Pharaoh’s chariots and his host hath he cast into the sea: his chosen captains also are drowned in the Red sea. The depths have covered them: they sank into the bottom as a stone. Thy right hand, O LORD, is become glorious in power: thy right hand, O LORD, hath dashed in pieces the enemy. And in the greatness of thine excellency thou hast overthrown them that rose up against thee: thou sentest forth thy wrath, which consumed them as stubble. And with the blast of thy nostrils the waters were gathered together, the floods stood upright as an heap, and the depths were congealed in the heart of the sea. The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them; I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them. Thou didst blow with thy wind, the sea covered them: they sank as lead in the mighty waters. Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live your way. Father God, you have blessed me with many blessings. Thank you for letting me bless others, like Jacob blessed his sons. Draw your loved ones close to you. Help me to know how to pray for each person as you guide them in my path. Please grow the seeds I plant in Jesus precious name. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days. Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. Genesis 49:1-2
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live for you in all that I do. Father God, heal those who need healing, and those who may need joy in their lives. Satisfy them in the morning with your unfailing love, that they may sing for joy and be glad all their days. May your favor rest upon them. Lord Jesus, establish the works of their hands. So, they may glory the treasure you made them to be. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
When the LORD turned again the captivity of Zion, we were like them that dream. Then was our mouth filled with laughter, and our tongue with singing: then said they among the heathen, The LORD hath done great things for them. The LORD hath done great things for us; whereof we are glad. Turn again our captivity, O LORD, as the streams in the south. They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him. Psalms 126
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to really live for a purpose. Father God, make me a sensitive friend. Tug on my spirit with a call for restraint if I ever step over the line of what is gracious and appropriate. Give me eyes to see beyond what I think and open my heart to hear what you would have me say and do. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing; A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away; A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace. What profit hath he that worketh in that wherein he labored? Ecclesiastes 3:1-9
Dear Blessed Lord Jesus, good morning. I love you and thank you for this new day to live. Father God, help me use any means available to teach your word, your principles and your very lifestyle to your little ones. Young and old, because our souls never age. I thank you, praise and give you all the honor and glory Lord Jesus. Amen.
