Prayer #00038

Good Morning LORD!  Today is a new day, a great day, and a richly BLESSED day!  Thank you for new mercies.  I was glad to hear that your soldier (Ella Scales) has been healed, and is on her way back to carrying out your mission.  She is a real “trooper” who can’t be stopped … I love her tenacity!  Bless her as she moves forward in YOUR name LORD.  I’d also like to remember Tracy Snyder today — she has been going back and forth into the hospital and recently just had heart surgery.  Thank you LORD for her life, and for her HEALING.  She is a fighter, a believer, and a contender and she will not give up or give in to the enemy’s attack!  Thank you for her ability to fight.  Give her the strength she needs, and when she gets weak, carry her until she is re-energized.  You’re doing great Tracy, so keep on pushing … GOD’s got your back and the enemy WILL NOT WIN!

 As for myself, today I choose not to think negative thoughts.  But if I should stumble LORD, please clear my mind and remind me to replace the negativity with something beautifully positive and positively beautiful.  Help me to keep my mind stayed on YOU, and to keep moving forward with YOU as my guide.  Open doors and present opportunities that you feel are best for me.  And if the opportunity is something I’d never consider, then prepare me to do be the best work I can to HONOR YOU.  Let my work be acceptable in your sight LORD, and let it GLORFY YOU.  Help me to be a source of encouragement to anyone who needs it, and a source of strength when I can.  LORD, I believe in YOUR POWER and I know that my time is near.  Therefore, I PRAY for the right attitude and mindset; intelligence and understanding; and will and determination to keep pushing through.  I PRAY that all I do, first and foremost HONORS YOU; and makes a difference in the lives of your people.  Thank you for YOUR direction; thank you for my gifts; and thank you for my husband who works so hard each and every day to take care of us and our home.  Bless him LORD, and please give him a calm spirit and help him not to worry.  Give me the words to speak to him … words that he will hear and that will make a difference in his life.  Give him patience; give him faith; and give him a greater understanding of YOUR POWER and YOUR WORD.  Help him to KNOW that our situation will improve and to TRUST that you can do anything but fail.  I PRAY for his continued strength and support while I search for a job and work on getting my business going … for I clearly understand his plight and PRAY to make it better with your help.

 Finally, thank you for giving me the strength and patience to get mama and Aunt D moved in, and settled.  I ask that you continue to protect them in their home, and keep them safe.  Thank you for the time I had to spend at home with my family … it was more than a BLESSING!  As I go through this day, please LORD, fill me with YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, that I might stay in YOUR will and not my own.  In the mighty and precious name of JESUS, I thank you, and I PRAY, Amen.
