Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden;

Luke 2:15,20 The shepherds said one to another, Let us now go even unto Bethlehem, and see this thing which … the Lord hath made known unto us. … 20 And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen.

Hebrews 2:17 He had to be made like His brothers in every way, in order that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that He might make atonement for the sins of the people.

Colossians 3:1-4 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.

1 Thessalonians 5:5,8 for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness… 8 But since we are of the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love…

Psalm 34:5 Those who look to the Lord are radiant!

May you plan kindnesses and plot good deeds as you lay down and when you rise up, seeking to carry them out at the morning's light, as God makes it possible by opening the doors you need and preparing the paths you follow, for He will pour out His blessings on those who walk in His will and show forth His love. Micah 1

May you choose to walk uprightly and follow the ways of God, so that the words of God will bring you benefits and give you comfort, for the Lord does not change, nor is He limited in any way. Micah 2

May you follow where He leads, for as He gathers His own together as sheep in a pen, the Lord will also break open the way by His strength and go before you, making a way where there was none and showing you the way where you have never gone before, so that you may walk in His victory as an over-comer. Micah 2

May you truly be filled with courage and strength by the Spirit of the Lord to stand in commitment to the might of the Lord's justice before the people who call themselves by His name and declare to them their disobedience and rebellion, that they may know the fear of the Lord and turn in repentance and be accepted by the Lord. Micah 3

Do not be motivated, My child, by the urges of the flesh or the reasoning of the mind, nor directed by the influences which are felt from the world's principalities and powers.
As you grow in your relationship to Me, My close one, you will come to know how love is foremost in My mind and thoughts, and you will learn to see how compassion underlies My deeds and choices. With this mature understanding, you will be able to go forth as My representative, My envoy, My ambassador.
You will be speaking for Me because your motivation is pure and your behavior is constrained and focused in My Spirit, not the spirit of the world.

May you go up to the mountain of the Lord and to the house of God that you may learn His ways and walk in His paths, for His law will go out from Zion and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. Micah 4

May you walk in the Name of the Lord your God for ever, without fear of man, when He judges between peoples and settles disputes between strong nations, who will then beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks, no longer training for war or arming themselves against each other. Micah 4

May you rest in the Lord and trust the promises of God, for though you have been stripped of all you relied in, having all you counted on taken from you, brought low in the sight of others and dependent on the help of those around, He will gather those He has disciplined and assemble those He isolated, and will make of you who endured to the end a strong nation, transforming the weak and lame into survivors and restoring to them the former dominion, over whom He will rule. Micah 4

May you know the thoughts of the Lord and understand His plan, for the Lord will give you horns of iron and hoofs of bronze to break to pieces spiritual powers and principalities which stand against the plan and people of God, plundering the enemy and devoting their ill-gotten gains to the Lord. Micah 4

May you rely on the Lord for your needs, for the sustenance of the world will be broken and the necessities of the earth will not be found when the judgments of God go forth, so know the Lord Who loves you enough to make full provision for you in heaven, obeying Him in all He has for you on earth, and let Him be your testimony before men that they may know where to turn, if they choose. Revelation 6

May you lift your hands in the sanctuary and praise the Lord as you minister by night in the house of the Lord. Psalm 134

May the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth, bless you from Zion. Psalm 134
