Almighty God,
I come before You this morning with a heart full of gratitude and thanksgiving. I praise and glorify Your holy name for the gift of another day and the opportunity to walk in Your light. Lord, I humbly ask for Your guidance and protection as I embark on this day’s journey.
Please grant me wisdom and understanding to make decisions that are pleasing to You and in line with Your will for my life. I trust in Your goodness and Your unfailing love, knowing that You will never leave me nor forsake me.
I bring before You my thoughts, concerns, and worries, asking for Your peace and direction. Strengthen me, O Lord, to fulfill the purpose and mission You have for me in this world, and to be a shining light that reflects Your glory.
I give You thanks for Your blessings and provision in my life, and I lift up my heart to You in adoration and worship.
I pray all this in the powerful and mighty name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. Amen.
