Abounding Grace

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of grace. We do not deserve it, but You give so freely. Please help us to cling to grace and the sufficiency You provide to “abound in every good work.” We get so weary on our journey we need the reminder that You have given all we need.

We thank and praise You for this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.

Blessed Action

Dear Heavenly Father, we like action when we feel good about the action and the results. However, our action needs to be based in Your word as You have told us in these verses. Please guide us to take faithful action according to the instructions in the Bible. We need Your help to act appropriately and enjoy the blessing.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.

Remain

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You that You want a relationship with us. Thank You that Jesus died on the cross, was buried, and rose again. Please help us to understand what we should do to remain or abide in You. We are prone to doing things on our own and accomplishing nothing. Please give us a hunger to “bear much fruit” that pushes us to remain as You intend.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.

Treasure

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the reminder that our lives need to be lived with eternity in mind. Please help us to see when we have allowed the “treasure” of this life take over. Please guide us to store up treasure that doesn’t decay. Thank You for directing our hearts toward the eternal treasure of heaven.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.
