Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

John 15:6 Jesus said, “If you do not remain in Me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.”

1 Corinthians 1:18 The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

Mark 8:29 "But what about you?" He asked. "Who do you say I am?"

1 Corinthians 3:16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?

Philippians 1:6 Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ;

Psalm 116:1-2 I love the Lord, because He hath heard my voice and my supplications. 2 Because He hath inclined His ear unto me, therefore will I call upon Him as long as I live.

May your heart not be led by your eyes, lest your hands be defiled in their work and your steps be turned from the path God has set, but may you stay faithfully following the way of God's love. Job 31

May the fear of God's splendor lead you in the way of God's compassion to offer unjudging grace and mercy to those around you, restraining and rejecting the carnal nature and bringing every thought into captivity. Job 31

May the fear of the crowd's contempt not allow you to remain silent or cause you to remain inside, but may you walk in the freedom and authority of one in the service of the Most High, worthily bearing the name and seal of the One Who has sent you and to Whom you give willing and total allegiance. Job 31

May you proclaim the righteousness of God to others instead of justifying yourself. Job 32

May the breath of the Almighty, placed within you, give you understanding and wisdom. Job 32

May you find favor with God when you pray, shouting for joy when you see His face and are restored to His righteousness, confessing sin that perverted the right, but testifying to the grace of His redemption which allows you to live. Job 33

You fill many roles in life, My child, and carry many responsibilities, each dealing with relationships to others. You may be a parent, a sibling, a child, all at the same time. You may be an employee, a manager, a co-worker, a neighbor. You may be both a driver and a pedestrian, a consumer and a producer. Each role requires you to interact with other people in certain ways and be held to certain standards. Too often, your relationships are based on your own understanding and rely on your own abilities, without giving thought to how you are representing Me to those you meet.
Before you can be My ambassador and My representative, My eager one, you must realize that you are My subject, a citizen of My kingdom. I own you, My precious one, and until you can humble yourself to accept that, casting aside all the other roles and their costumes, and kneel, vulnerable and without covering, before Me, you will never be able to comprehend My love for you or My care for you. You must come to Me as a slave before I can fulfill My obligation as your Master and Lord.
I do not extend My protection to those who belong to a different kingdom or obey a different king. I know My own, and am making a separation and distinction between My people and all others. Kneel before Me as a slave and experience the compassion of My love, then rise as a messenger, empowered and authorized to speak My words of power and authority with grace and humility into the lives of others.
You must be Mine before I can be yours, and you must come to Me before I can send you to others. Approach Me with nothing of your own, and I will furnish all you have need of for My work. This will be your testimony.

May your life be an open letter from Christ, known and read by everyone, written not with ink but by the Spirit of the living God on tablets of the human hearts whose lives you have touched with the ministry of God's love. 2 Corinthians 3

May your confidence in ministry be through Christ before God and your competency in service come from God Who makes you a minister of the new covenant of the Spirit. 2 Corinthians 3

May you turn to the Lord so that every veil which hides His truth can be taken away from your heart, for where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. 2 Corinthians 3

May you, with an unveiled face, reflect the Lord's glory as you are being transformed into His likeness with ever-increasing holiness, which comes from the Spirit of the Lord. 2 Corinthians 3

May God vindicate you and plead your cause against an ungodly authority and rescue you from deceitful and wicked powers for you have made Him your stronghold. Psalm 43

May you go to the altar of God, your joy and delight, praising Him with the harp, as He sends forth His light and truth, lifting you from mourning and freeing you from the enemy's oppression, to guide you to His holy mountain, the place where God dwells. Psalm 43
