Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Ephesians 5:25,27 Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her, … 27 that He might present to Himself the church in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy and blameless.

Proverbs 31:27-28 She is vigilant over the activities of her household; she doesn’t eat the food of laziness. 28 Her children bless her; her husband praises her.

Proverbs 1:10 My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them.

2 Timothy 1:7 The Spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.

Matthew 6:21 …for where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.

May you respect all offices of authority, without agreeing with any sins of the individual, for God may draw them by the honor you demonstrate, just as Abraham did not flaunt God's promise to possess the land when he asked to buy a burial ground, for the sins of the Hittites were not yet full and the promise was not yet ready to be fulfilled. Genesis 23

May you trust the guidance and provision of the Lord in the assignments and tasks He gives you, knowing that He will prepare the way and lead you in it to complete His purpose and show His glory. But remember that you are only responsible for obeying, not for the results. Genesis 24

May you walk closely with the Lord, reflecting His love and generosity to others, obeying the nudge of the Spirit, going the extra mile. That is how others will know you are His. Genesis 24

May you listen to the wooing of the Spirit of God as He makes much of the Son of God. Allow your heart to be drawn in love to One Who has shown undeniably that He would rather die than live without you. Genesis 24

Release your heart into eternity with Me, My child, and abide with Me in the heavenlies.
Your feet will remain on the ground and your hands will continue to work in the earth, but your purposes and your goals will be from Me, not from the prince of this world system. Your ears will be able to hear My Spirit as life and healing and wisdom are spoken into your heart from the throne of the Father. Your eyes will gain the ability to see the glory of the Lord as it shines on the path you are to follow.
But you must grow into this, My love, through daily time spent alone with Me, in regular sessions of isolation from external voices, in periodic fasting from distractions, in special episodes of separation from the congregation, that you may practice the worship I give you and develop a taste for My presence. How will you spend eternity with Me if you cannot stay quietly thinking about Me for more than a few minutes?
As you grow in your love for Me and develop in your expression of worship, My joy will be revealed in your life to others and My presence will be felt by those around you. Come to Me that you may rejoice in Me and that you may share Me with others in your life.

May you bring your need before the Lord, confessing your belief in His ability to answer, so that He may demonstrate His willingness to answer. Matthew 8

May you express your faith in the Son of God before heaven and earth, acknowledging that He has the authority to speak the word and send the hosts of heaven to accomplish His command. Matthew 8

May you declare the praises of the Lord in the presence of His people and rejoice in His salvation with His saints, for in mercy He has lifted you up from the gates of death. Psalm 9

May you call on the Lord to arise, lest man should triumph, and judge the nations in His presence, remembering the needy and giving hope to the afflicted. Psalm 9

May you keep the commands of the Lord in your heart and not forget His teachings. They will prolong your life many years and bring you prosperity. Proverbs 3:1,2

May you bind love and faithfulness around your neck and write them on the tablet of your heart that they may never leave you. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Proverbs 3:3,4

May you trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge the Lord and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5,6
