Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

Deuteronomy 1:29-30 Do not be terrified; do not be afraid of them. 30 The LORD your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as He did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes.

Psalm 92:12,14-15 [The righteous]… 14 will still bear fruit in old age, they will stay fresh and green, 15 proclaiming, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and there is no wickedness in Him.”

Mark 9:35 Sitting down, Jesus called the Twelve and said, “Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.”

1 Timothy 4:15 Be diligent in these matters; give yourself wholly to them, so that everyone may see your progress.

2 Corinthians 7:1 Therefore dear friends, since we have such promises, we should wash ourselves clean from every impurity of the flesh and spirit, making our sanctification complete in the fear of God.

May you be as hungry for the Lord, and as willing to seek Him, as those who devote themselves to other purposes, rising early and giving time to the One Who will last and never fail through eternity. Exodus 8

May you understand that the sacrifices of God, a broken spirit and a contrite heart, are detestable to those who walk in the value system of the world, so while service can be done among them, God calls you to come away to Him for sacrifice and worship. Exodus 8

May the Lord make a distinction between you and the people of the world regarding the things that happen, not because of who you are, but so they will know that the Lord is in the land and there is no one like Him. Exodus 9

May you see that the Lord will always work through a yielded and willing vessel, for when He needs someone to stand against His Word and His Authority long after most others have learned the fear of God, He will raise up someone like Pharaoh whose heart is prepared and willing to do it, just as the Lord raised up Moses, who was yielded to God and willing to obey. Exodus 9

May you rejoice in God's mercy which is always available in the midst of His judgment, for His judgment is upon the world system with those who draw upon its power and lend it their strength, but His mercy is extended to each individual who turns to Him in reverent fear and holy awe. Exodus 9

Know the sweetness of My presence, My child, as you walk along the path today. I am present, I am real, and I am vital in all that you do, say, and think. Will you allow Me to be those things today? You are able to shut Me out, not only by deliberate choice as the children of the evil one do, but also by neglect, inattention, distraction.
Pray without ceasing, My love, as you would with someone dear to your heart. When you see two people talking today, leaning into each other, check to see if you are conversing that intimately with Me about what is on your heart. When you see a parent and child holding hands crossing the street, check to see if your hand is securely in Mine, as I lead you in the way you should go. When you see a couple eating in a restaurant showing each other the little courtesies that come from caring, check to see if you are aware of the graces I am showing you and whether you have thanked Me for them.
I am always with you, My precious one, every step of the way, and My desire is that you would always be aware of My Presence, for you will be comforted by it, you will gain My wisdom from it, you will get discernment from it, you will know My heart and be led aright by it. Walk in My Spirit, and you will not fulfill the desires of the flesh.

May you be as a little child when you approach the Lord, for He commands that no power hinder, forbid, or restrain those who do, and declares the kingdom of heaven belongs to those who are. Matthew 19

May you always recall that whatever task is assigned to you by the Lord, you are always to follow Him, for it is in His presence that sorrow departs and joy is found. Matthew 19

May you practice the presence of God, walking in the Spirit as you commune with the Lord, pressing in to know the heart of the Father and do His will, for then you will have that spiritual maturity which accompanies self-sacrificing character and you will be His disciple, continually keeping the commandments God has given in order to enter in eternal life. Matthew 19

May you have clean hands and a pure heart, not practicing dishonesty or swearing by what is false, for then you will receive God's own goodness as a blessing from the Lord and vindication from God your Savior, for you will be able to ascend the hill of the Lord and stand in His holy place to worship. Psalm 24

May the Lord, strong and mighty, invincible in battle, the Commander of all of heaven's armies, be your King of glory. Psalm 24
