Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time:

2 Timothy 1:7 God didn’t give us a spirit that is timid but one that is powerful, loving, and self-controlled.

Ephesians 1:9-10 He made known to us the mystery of His will according to His good pleasure, which He purposed in Christ, 10 to be put into effect when the times will have reached their fulfillment - to bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ.

Proverbs 3:7-8 Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. 8 This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.

Matthew 10:8 …freely you have received, freely give.

May you be consoled that God's actions and judgments are not done without cause but are righteous and just when He defends the poor in spirit and protects the weak by making them strong through Him, honoring the humble of heart as He brings down the proud and arrogant who trust in themselves, as they feed on others and make a name for themselves at the expense of those who do not defend themselves. Ezekiel 14, Matthew 5, Luke 6

May you abide in the true Vine and be nourished by the life He carries so that you may bear fruit which is pleasing to the Master Gardener, for if you reject the life-giving flow into which you have been grafted and seek other sources, you will be barren or bear bitter fruit, causing the Husbandman to cut off your branch to be burned to ashes. Ezekiel 15

May you always remember, and never forget, the debt of love you owe to the Lord, for He rescued you from the power of death, hell, and the grave, giving His life for you when you offered Him no reason to care, even as He provides His righteousness to cover you, His gifts to defend and strengthen you, and His Name to replace your shame and disgrace with His honor and reputation; therefore, turn to Him with your whole heart, hold back nothing from your Lord and Savior, forsake all former sources of gifts and comfort, pursuing Him alone and cleaving only to Him Who, accepting you as you are, loves you too much to let you remain as you have been. Ezekiel 16

May you be glad and rejoice because Jesus, Who lives forever, is our advocate before God permanently, and therefore is able to save you to the uttermost – completely, perfectly, finally and for all time and eternity – when you come to God through Him, because He always lives to intercede with God and intervene for you, being holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens, and having no need to offer sacrifices for Himself since He offered Himself as an acceptable sacrifice for you. Hebrews 7

My child, say not, "I am old, and of no use," or "I am aged, and without strength or benefit for the Lord's work."
From the moment you accepted My gift of redemption and were saved from sin through My miracle of rebirth, you received eternal life.
There is much that is to come, and many treasures and pleasures to receive and enjoy when your mortality puts on immortality, but you already have received the earnest of My promise with the indwelling of My Spirit and the experience of being born again into eternity.
With eternal life, there is no old age, no feebleness, no withering away like that which your mortal body experiences; instead, you are forever young. There is a growing in wisdom and an increasing in understanding that brings maturity and stability, but eternity knows no decline of strength or diminishing of vigor.
If you consider only your mortal body, fretting over the weakness it is subject to, you will be in danger of envy and jealousy toward those whose walk is not narrowed or constrained in the natural. But what benefit does the unprincipled sinner receive when judgment arrives in his life?
You, who in the youth of your eternal life have born the yoke of the Lord, sitting alone with Me and in silence before My Spirit, will know the voice of your Redeemer and walk securely in the wisdom which comes from your reverence and awe for God.
My work is from the inside out, My dear one. That which is done in private as you seek Me through My Word with tears of repentance and obey My Spirit to the decreasing and diminishing of the carnal mind's influence and the natural man's inclination, will be rewarded openly before all.

May you give thanks to the Lord, for He is good and His love and mercy endures forever, therefore who can fully declare His praise or adequately proclaim His mighty acts? Psalm 106

May you observe justice, treating others fairly, and constantly do what is right, being in right standing with God at all times, so that you will be happy, fortunate and envied by others. Psalm 106

May the Lord earnestly remember you when He favors His people and visit you also when He delivers them, granting you His salvation. Psalm 106

May you see and share the welfare of His chosen ones that you may rejoice in the gladness of His people and glory with His heritage in giving Him praise. Psalm 106

Although we have all sinned, having done wickedly and committed iniquity, as have those who came before us, in not understanding or appreciating His miracles or earnestly remembering the multitude of His mercies, nor imprinting His loving-kindness on our hearts, yet He saves us for His name's sake to prove the righteousness of His divine nature and make His mighty power to be known. Psalm 106

May you believe the words of the Lord, trusting in and relying on them as you sing His praise for leading you safely through impossible circumstances and saving you from the hand of him that hates you, redeeming you from the hand of His enemy. Psalm 106
