Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Psalm 1:1-2 Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in His law doth he meditate day and night.

Ezra 3:3 Despite their fear of the peoples around them, they built the altar.

Isaiah 2:17-18 The arrogance of man will be brought low and the pride of men humbled; the LORD alone will be exalted in that day, 18 and the idols will totally disappear.

Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

John 14:21 …He who has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me

John 6:38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him who sent Me.

May you walk before the Lord in the light He has given you, knowing that He is the sacrifice that makes you blameless for the things you have not yet learned. Leviticus 4

May you willingly, and gratefully, receive and submit to the check of your conscience or the reproof of a friend, either of which are sent by the Spirit of God, lest by ignorance having fallen into sin, you do not through ignorance continue in it. Leviticus 4

May you understand that only the willing, sacrificial offering of Christ Jesus' own blood can remove the penalty and heal the disfiguring of sin, and nothing of your own works will ever be sufficient. But His cure for sin can only be applied when you approach Him in specific confession and repentant prayer, accepting the depth of your guilt and acknowledging your need for His forgiveness. Leviticus 5

I have placed you in My family, My child, for you have need of fellowship and companionship.
I am your Source, your Head, your Elder Brother; your first, and primary, relationship must be with Me. But I have given you gifts that must be used within the Body of Christ, the family of Christ, for the maturing, the perfecting, the knitting together of the saints into a loving, cooperating, skillful, functional unit.
Pray for one another, carry one another's burdens, sorrow with those who sorrow and rejoice with those who know My joy. Without this training, My precious one, how can eternity, surrounded by the numberless multitudes around My throne, be eagerly anticipated?
Although nothing can sever the bond of love I have with you, you cannot be isolated from the rest of the Body, for that is where My love is, as well.
Reach out in My love to one another and see My love reaching back to you, that your fellowship may be full and your relationship with Me may be complete.

May you willingly acknowledge your need for God's help, for He does not have time for the self-made and self-sufficient since He is sent as a doctor to the sick, and a redeemer to those who are captive. Mark 2

May you have eyes to see beyond the traditions, habits, and teachings that separate you from the truth of God that you might be free of the restraints which hold you back from the work of God. Mark 2

May you be willing to honestly answer the questions God asks you, for they are designed to teach you truth and bring you to freedom. Mark 3

May you find refuge in the shelter of His wings and feast on the abundance of His house, drinking from His river of delights, for God's unfailing love is priceless and with the Lord is the fountain of life. Psalm 36

May the foot of the proud not come against you, nor the hand of the wicked drive you away, for the love of God continues to those who know Him and His righteousness to the upright in heart. Psalm 36
