Heavenly Father, I come before You Oh Lord, my God, thanking You for waking me up this Monday morning to embrace the sunlight that shoots down from the heavens.
Thank You for giving me the health and strength I need to overcome every stronghold in my life. And thank You for loving me unconditionally in the times when I may have failed You.

Morning Prayer
Prayer for Covering and Cleansing
Father, I request that Your Holy Presence draws near to me. Wrap me in Your loving arms and never let me go. Cover me under the precious blood of the lamb.
Cleanse me of anything that is displeasing to You. Renew my mind, my body, and my soul, as I worship You and You alone. Amen.
Proverbs 8:17 I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.
Isaiah 41:10-12 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Prayer to overcome the storms
When the storms arise, bestow Your tranquility and peace upon me, so that I may not be moved. Work from within me, Lord to bring a revival into my Life.
When I feel broken Lord, transform my spirit, so I can emerge whole again. And, as I pray Lord, use me daily as Your vessel, in whatever way you need me. Amen.

Prayer helps you find direction in your life
When you privately pray to God, you can work through serious decisions in your life. God always listens and often provides the specific answers and guidance we seek. Even when He chooses not to answer immediately or in the way we might have hoped, prayer itself is a way to find peace.

Prayer gives you strength to avoid temptation
Jesus counseled His disciples, “Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation” (Matthew 26:41). Through prayer, we can overcome temptations to sin. Pray for God’s help to keep you from making wrong choices. This will give you the strength to do what is right.

Prayer aligns your will with God’s will
The purpose of prayer is not necessarily to tell God how you want Him to do things. Rather, it’s to better understand Him and His ways, bringing yourself into alignment with His will. As C.S. Lewis is often attributed as saying, prayer “doesn’t change God. It changes me.”

Prayer and regular fasting can help you accept God’s will
Jesus fasted for 40 days and 40 nights before He began His ministry on the earth. As He did this, He communed with His Father in Heaven in prayer. Likewise, if you pray and fast, you can feel closer to God and better understand the things He wants you to do.

Send Your angels to guard over me throughout this week, as You lead me into my divine purpose. Bless all that I lay my hands upon. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray, Amen!

Psalm 19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, my rock and my redeemer.
1 Corinthians 10:13 – The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.
