Daily blessings and prayers from Scripture.

Romans 12:21  Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

Hebrews 4:15  For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

John 16:33  Jesus said, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

Luke 12:24-26  Consider the ravens: They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn; yet God feeds them. And how much more valuable you are than birds! 25 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? 26 Since you cannot do this very little thing, why do you worry about the rest?

Leviticus 19:18  Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.

2 Corinthians 4:18  as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal.

May you trust in the tested Stone, relying on the precious Cornerstone for a sure foundation, for though others make an agreement with the enemies of their soul to not touch them, the Lord will annul it and their refuge will be swept away. But because you look to His justice as your measuring line and seek His righteousness for your plumb line, you will never be dismayed. Isaiah 28

May you hear the voice of the Lord your God and pay attention to what He says, for He will instruct you in the right way to gather the harvest and teach you how to thresh each crop, since the diversity of the planting calls for understanding and not rote, and the Lord Almighty is wonderful in counsel and magnificent in wisdom. Isaiah 28 

May you draw near to the Lord with a pure heart, worshiping Him with  clean hands and honest intentions, desirous to live in His light, submissive to His will and obedient to His leading, that you may be a fit vessel  for His glory and wisdom, His truth and power, His understanding and judgment, bringing honor and praise to His name, claiming none as your own. Isaiah 29

May you rejoice in the Lord  with the humble and the needy who search for and desire the Holy One of Israel, Who makes the blind able to see His glory and the deaf able to hear His truth even as the ruthless vanish, the mockers disappear, and all who have an eye for evil will be cut down before they can pervert God's justice again. Isaiah 29

May you acknowledge the holiness of the God of Jacob and stand in awe of the Holy One of Israel when you see your children, the work of His grace, keeping His name holy, for those who are wayward in spirit will gain understanding and those who complain will accept instruction. Isaiah 29

May you not turn to alliances with men when troubled by other men, or court favors with authorities when oppressed by other authorities, but turn instead to the Lord, sitting in quiet submission to His will and humble dependence upon His goodness, that you may be led by the wisdom of His Spirit, not relying on your own understanding, for you cannot expect too little from man or count on too much from God. Isaiah 30

May you be a trustworthy child of the Father, compliant and desirous of learning from the Lord and from those He has entrusted your training to, turning from the illusions and distractions that have been a snare in the past, and striving toward the vision of what is right that you may be conformed to the image of the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 30

   Be not proud or haughty, My child, when you reach out to the other members of your family, My Body, thinking only to give, and not to receive. I, alone, am the self-sufficient One, and I give to each member that which others have need of.
   There are many gifts, and they are divided severally by My Spirit as I choose. To shun or reject that which another provides from Me is to reject Me. To discern My Body is to discern Me; to receive from My Body is to receive from My hand. 
   Try the spirits, always, My child, and do not refuse that which My Spirit bears witness to, for this is how you may know the things I freely give to you.

May your behavior in circumstances and your conduct toward others always demonstrate your subjection to the Father's guardians and your obedience to His trustees as you receive the training He desires and you gain the wisdom He offers to enable you  to receive in the inheritance of the eldest Son, Jesus, and to partake in the business of our Father, God. Galatians 4

May your soul find rest in God alone, for He alone is your rock and fortress which can never be shaken, and from Him alone does your salvation come. Psalm 62

May you trust in God at all times and pour out your heart to Him, your Refuge and mighty Rock, on Whom your salvation and honor depend. Psalm 62

May you hear what God has spoken: that God is strong, and the Lord is loving; surely He will reward you according to what you have done. Psalm 62

May you listen to the Lord and gain the wisdom needed to keep your heart on the right path. Proverbs 23:19
