Awesome!
God With Us
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for providing Jesus. Holy God coming in the form of man, providing what we need to spend eternity with You. I am in awe of the miracle of a virgin birth so that God could be with us. Your love is beyond comprehension. Please help us to have the appropriate awe and thankfulness for this wonderful gift.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Faithful and Sure
Dear Heavenly Father, thank Your for choosing me. I can say with Isaiah, “You are my God.”
I ask for salvation for those who cannot say that. Please guide me to praise You so others will know who You are. Help me to know what to say, but to remember to leave the results to You.
May Your name be praised!
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.

God’s Temple Today
In the Old Testament we learn about the temple Solomon built for God to dwell in. At Pentecost (in the book of Acts), the Holy Spirit came to dwell in people. 1 Corinthians reminds us that our physical bodies belong to God because of this.
Jesus’ example prayer can help us remember that God’s kingdom, including His residence of our physical bodies, is more important than our own desires. This should give us the desire to take care of our physical bodies to the best of our ability.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the reminder that our physical bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit. Please help us to live with that thought in mind.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
Holy is Your Name
I have spent a lot of time thinking about Jesus’ example prayer. A few years ago I did several blog posts on the different portions of that prayer. One of my areas of struggle is trying to think through today’s application of Jesus’ prayer. He didn’t want us to continually pray His prayer verbatim. So for a time I want to look at specific ways to praise God.
The first part of Jesus’ prayer says, “Our Father in Heaven, Holy is Your name.” God’s holiness is an amazing character trait. Today’s verse in Revelation talks about God’s worthiness. In this case we read about God being the reason for the existence of all things. God deserves “to receive glory and honor and power”. I want to praise God for His worth.
Dear Heavenly Father, You are worthy for more glory than I can give. Please accept my small voice of praise for being the reason we all “exist and were created”. Thank You for the examples and prompts for how to pray and praise You.
I pray this in Jesus’ name.
God is so good.
