God's Favor Goes Before You ....

 This morning, let God be God. Before you try to fix everything, before you rehearse every conversation, before you carry the whole day on your shoulders, let God be God over your schedule, your worries, and your steps. 

I have heard so many people say, "By the time I leave the house, l already feel drained just thinking about the meetings, the expectations, the pressure." 

Maybe that's you today. Before you even step out the door, your heart is already racing. But what if the first thing you did today was not to assume the weight of the day, but to hand it over. 

Before you face emails, traffic, deadlines, and difficult people, I want you to hear this. You are not walking into this day alone. 

God's favor is not behind you scolding you. 

His favor goes before you making a way. 

His protection is not thin and fragile. It is thick and strong.

It surrounds you like a shield. 

So right now, wherever you are, just breathe slowly, gently. If you can, place your hand on your heart for a moment. Feel it beating. 

That heartbeat is a gift. That breath is a gift. And the God who gave you both is standing at the doorway of this day with you. 

Let's begin with God's word because favor is not luck. 

It's covenant grace. 

The Bible says in Psalm 5:12 that the Lord blesses the righteous and surrounds them with favor as with a shield. 

 Imagine that for a moment. 

Favor is not a random spotlight that hits you once in a while if you're lucky enough. 

Favor is a shield that never leaves you. 

It doesn't just touch your life, sometimes . It encircles you all the time. 

And in Proverbs 3: 56, we are told to trust in the Lord with all our heart, not to lean on our own understanding, and that as we acknowledge Him in all our ways, He will direct our paths. 

What does that mean for you this very morning? 

It means that when you walk into your workplace, you do not walk in as an unprotected, unseen,  unnoticed person trying desperately to earn value. 

You walk in surrounded by favor. You are not naked to criticism or rejection. There is a shield around your life. 

God's favor goes before you into the office, the classroom, the shop, the meeting room, the kitchen, the car, even into conversations you are worried about. 

God's favor is already in the room before you arrive, already softening hearts, already opening the right doors and closing the wrong ones. 

You do not have to exhaust yourself trying to be impressive enough or charming enough to be accepted. 

You are already accepted in Christ. You don't need to gong your way into being liked. You are covered by the smile of God. 

And that shield is not just for people. It's also for the roads you travel, the decisions you make, the places you will step today. 

The fear that says anything could happen meets the truth that says yes, but God surrounds me. 

When you step into a difficult environment, his favor is a soft answer in your mouth, a calm spirit inside you and a quiet authority that does not come from you but from him. 

But there is another part of this promise. 

God does not just surround you with favor. He also directs your path. 

That is why the morning matters so deeply. 

The first voice you listen to sets the tone for the whole day. 

Pray first, not panic first. 

The world says, "Check your phone, check the news, check your messages." God says, "Check in with me." 

When you trust in him with all your heart and acknowledge him in all your ways, you are giving him the steering wheel of your day. 

So this morning, instead of rushing straight into your to-do list, take a moment to surrender it. 

Lay before the Lord your schedule, your meetings, your deadlines, your projects, your phone calls, your errands, your decisions. 

Say, "Lord, these are my plans, but I don't want to lean on my own understanding. 

Direct my steps. 

Close the doors that are not from you, even if I think I want them. 

Open the doors that are from you, even if they stretch me. 

Interrupt me if you need to. 

Protect me from what I can't see. 

Lead me where I need to be. 

When you do that, you are not just asking for a good day. 

You are aligning your whole day with the God who already goes before you. 

You are choosing to walk under the shield of His favor instead of under the weight of your own control. 

In a moment, we are going to pray together and speak these truths over your life. 

Don't rush away. Don't skip around. 

Stay with me from the beginning to the end of this prayer. 

And let's agree together that today you will not walk alone. 

You will walk covered in the favor and guidance of God. 

Dear heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, this morning I come before you and I consecrate this day to you. 

I surrender my body, my mind, my emotions, my spirit, and everything I will walk into today.  

I present myself to you not as someone who has it all together, but as a living sacrifice, set apart for your purposes. 

Take my thoughts and cleanse them. 

Take my attitudes and align them with your heart. 

Take my reactions and shape them by your grace. 

I don't want this day to be driven by rush, ego, or fear. 

I wanted to be marked by your presence. 

Lord, I lay down my right to cling to my own way. 

And I invite you to be Lord over my schedule, my conversations, my tasks, and my hidden moments. 

Let my words carry kindness. 

Let my eyes see people the way you see them. 

Let my heart be soft toward your whispers.  

God, you are my beginning today and I choose to step into this day as an offering to you. 

Father, I bring every plan and activity of this day and I place them all into your hands. 

You know every meeting, every message, every decision waiting for me. 

 You know the deadlines that press on my heart and the responsibilities that weigh on my mind. 

 I choose not to lean on my own understanding of how this day should go. 

Instead, I commit my plans to you. 

Take what I have written down, what I have scheduled, what I expect, and breathe on it. 

If there is anything I am planning that is not in line with your will, gently redirect me. 

If there is something I am overlooking that you want me to see, highlight it to my spirit. 

l ask you to order my steps to place me in the right place at the right time for the right reasons. 

Let interruptions that come from you become opportunities and distractions that do not come from you lose their power. 

God you are the One who sees the whole picture when I only see a piece. 

So I invite you to rearrange my day as you see fit. 

Lord, I ask for your favor as a shield over my name and over my work today. 

As I speak, as I write, as I decide, as I show up in rooms and spaces, let your favor rest on me. 

Go ahead of me into conversations, into meetings, into negotiations, into quiet tasks no one else sees. 

Let my words carry grace and truth. 

Let my presence bring peace, not tension. 

I ask that where my name is mentioned today, it will be covered by your favor, not by misunderstanding or attack. 

Protect my reputation from lies, from false assumptions, from unfair judgment. 

Surround my work with your blessing, not so that I may be exalted, but so that you may be honoured. 

God, you are the One who blesses the work of my hands. 

You are the One who can breathe on small efforts and make them fruitful. 

Let the excellence I pursue be an act of worship. 

And let any success that comes be a testimony of your goodness, not my greatness. 

Wrap my name, my words, and my assignments in the shield of your favor. 

Finally, Father, I ask you to be the One who opens the doors l am meant to walk through and closes the doors that are not from you. 

You see every opportunity, every invitation, every relationship, every potential connection that stands before me. 

Some doors look attractive but are traps. 

Some doors look small but led to destiny. 

I don't want to force my way into rooms where your presence is not leading me. 

And I don't want to miss the rooms where you have prepared a place for me. 

So l ask you, open what no one can shut and shut what no one can open without you. 

Bring the right people into my path. 

People who sharpen my faith, who align with your purpose for my life, who help me grow in wisdom and obedience. 

Remove from my path relationships and connections that would pull me away from you, even if they look   good on the surface. 

God, you are the keeper of the doors in my life. 

You are the One who aligns my steps with my calling. 

Today I choose to trust that as I walk in faith and humility, you are arranging divine appointments, setting up right connections, and guiding me into the places where your favor and purpose meet. 

Lord, this morning I thank you that I do not have to walk through this day guessing, reacting, and stumbling in the dark. 

I ask you for guidance for every step. 

Holy Spirit, be my guide in the big decisions and in the small ones that nobody else sees. 

Lead me when I stand up from this place of prayer. 

Lead me when I choose my words, when l answer messages, when I decide what to focus on and what to leave for later. 

Help me not to lean on my own understanding, but to trust that as l acknowledge you, you are directing my paths. 

When there are two options in front of me and both look good, whisper to my heart which way to go. 

When l am tempted to rush ahead, slow me down. 

When l am tempted to hesitate in fear, nudge me forward. 

God, you are my Compass when I feel directionless. 

God, you are my Shepherd when the path curves and I cannot see around the corner. 

God, you are my Light when the road feels dim. 

Let your voice be louder than my anxiety today. 

Let your gentle conviction be stronger than any pressure from people. 

Order my steps so that by the end of this day, I can look back and say, "This was not just my plan. This was my Father's leading." 

Lord, I also ask you for protection from every trap of the enemy. 

You see the snares that have been set along my path. 

Traps of distraction, traps of offense, traps of lust, traps of pride, traps of anger, traps of discouragement. 

You see the subtle lies that the enemy would love to plant in my mind. 

Lies that tell me l am alone, forgotten, unprotected. 

You see the emotional triggers that can shift my whole day in just one moment. 

So I ask you, keep me safe. 

Guard me from physical danger, accidents, sudden harm, any plan of evil against my life. 

Guard me from spiritual danger, voices that lead me away from truth, influences that dilute my faith, moments that harden my heart instead of drawing me closer to you. 

Guard me from emotional traps, arguments that don't need to be had, words spoken in anger that I would regret, reactions that open the door to strife. 

Lord, your word says that you will give your angels charge over me to keep me in all my ways. Let that be true for me today. 

Stand between me and every trap set by the enemy. 

If l am about to step into something that will entangle me, you pull me back. 

If l am about to agree with a lie, interrupt my thoughts. 

God, you are my Protector when I am unaware. 

God, you are my Defender when I cannot defend myself. 

God, you are my Guardian when l am too distracted to even know I am in danger. 

Surround me and everyone I love with your covering hand. 

Father, I ask you for wisdom and discernment as I move through this day. 

You know how many decisions big and small stand in front of me. 

What to say yes to, what to say no to, how to respond, when to wait, when to act. 

I confess that when I rely on my emotions alone, I often regret my choices. 

So l ask, give me wisdom that is higher than my feelings. 

Give me discernment to see beyond the surface. 

Let me know the difference between what is right and what is almost right, between what looks good and what is truly from you. 

Your word says that if anyone lacks wisdom, they can ask and you give generously. 

I am asking, Lord, fill my mind with clear thinking and my heart with sound judgment. 

And Lord, I remember Solomon who, when given the chance to ask for anything, he did not ask for riches or long life, but he asked for wisdom to lead well. That pleased you. And you grant him more than wisdom. 

Today, I want to honour you in the same way. 

More than I want success, I want your wisdom. 

More than I want your comfort, I want your discernment.

More than I want quick answers, I want a heart that sees things the way you see them. 

God, you are my Counselor when confusion presses in. 

God, you are my Teacher when I feel inexperienced. 

God, you are my Insight when situations are complicated. 

Let me not make permanent decisions based on temporary emotions. 

Let me not speak words I cannot pull back. 

Help me pause long enough to say, "Holy Spirit, what do you think?" and then follow your leading. 

Lord, in the middle of pressure, I ask you to give me peace. 

You know the weight that sits on my chest when the to-do list feels too long, when people are waiting for answers, when time feels too short. You know the moments when notifications, deadlines,  and expectations all converge at once, and my heart wants to panic. 

In those moments, keep my mind stayed on you. 

Your word says you will keep in perfect peace the one whose mind is stayed on you because they trust in you. 

Let that be my reality today. 

When work piles up, let me remember that I am not carrying it alone. 

When people demand more than I feel I have, let me remember that my source is not my own strength but your Spirit within me. 

When I feel pushed, rushed or squeezed, help me to breathe and say, "Lord, you are still on the throne. 

You are not anxious. 

You are not late. 

You are not overwhelmed. 

God, you are my calm in the chaos. 

God, you are my stillness in the storm. 

God, you are my steady hand when everything feels like it's moving too fast. 

Wrap my mind in a peace that does not depend on everything being organized or predictable. 

Let that peace guard my heart like soldiers at the door, refusing to let panic, dread, or despair walk in. 

Let me be a person who carries peace into pressured spaces because I have been with you. 

Father, I bring before you every need in my life. 

And I thank you that you are the God who provides.

You know the financial needs that concern me, the bills, the obligations, the unexpected expenses. 

You know the need for strength in my body, energy to get through the day, clarity in my mind. 

You know the need for time, to do what  must be done, to rest, to be present with those I love. 

You know the need for ideas, creativity, answers to problems I have not yet solved. 

Your word says that you will supply all our needs according to your riches in glory by Christ Jesus. 

So l stand on that promise today. 

I declare that l am not abandoned to figure everything out alone. 

I have the Father in heaven who sees ahead and provides. 

God, you are my Source when resources feel low. 

God, you are my Supplier when my hands feel empty. 

God, you are my Strength. When my body says, "I'm done." 

Where there is lack, bring enough. 

Where there is enough, bring overflow so l can bless others. 

Teach me to trust you day by day. 

Like the Israelites who received manna in the wilderness. 

Just enough for that day, but always on time. 

Let my heart be more focused on you the Giver than on the gifts. 

Even as I ask for provision, root me in gratitude for everything you have already done. 

Lord, I ask that you open the floodgates of heaven and release your blessings over my life in the way you know is best. 

Not just material blessing, but the kind of blessing that shapes my character and glorifies your name. 

Pour out opportunities that align with your will. 

Pour out favor in places where I have no natural advantage. 

Pour out support and encouragement from unexpected people at unexpected times. 

Let the work of my hands be fruitful. 

Let seeds I have sown in faith begin to bear visible fruit. 

Where things have felt dry send rain. 

Where doors have felt closed for a long time, you begin to move them. 

God, you are the One who can do more in a moment than I can do in a lifetime. 

You are the One who can connect me to the right person. 

Open the right door, breathe on the right idea, and change the whole trajectory. 

I do not seek blessing as an idol. 

I seek your blessing so that l can live fully for you, serve others better, and testify of your goodness. 

l open my heart and my hands and say, "Lord, whatever you want to pour out, l am here and I am willing. 

Remove any mindset in me that resists receiving from you out of false humility or fear. 

Teach me to expect good from you, good Father. 

Father, I ask you to bless my family and cover my home. 

Watch over our going out and our coming in today, everyday, every morning and every night.. 

As each person in my household steps into their part of the day, work, school, errands, responsibilities, l ask you to surround them with your protection. 

Guard our children from harm, from bad influences, from lies about their identity and worth. 

Guard marriages from division, coldness, and resentment. 

Guard our home from strife, from heaviness, from spiritual darkness. 

Let our house be a place where your presence is felt even in the ordinary, around the table, in conversations, in laughter, in quiet moments alone. 

God, you are the keeper of our home. 

You are the One who watches when we sleep and when we wake. 

Cover the doors and windows with your protection. 

Let your peace be the atmosphere we breathe inside these walls. 

Where there has been tension, you bring reconciliation. 

Where there has been misunderstanding, you bring clarity and compassion. 

Where there has been distance, you bring closeness again. 

I place my family into your hands, trusting that you love them more than l ever could and that you are able to work in their hearts even when l cannot. 

 Finally, Lord, I ask that you help me build this entire day on Jesus, the rock. 

I do not want to build on the sand of emotions that change from hour to hour. 

I do not want to build on the sand of other people's approval or on the sand of my own performance. 

I remember the story Jesus told about the wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain fell, the floods came, the wind beat against that house, but it did not fall because it was founded on the rock. 

I know the storms of this day may come.   Unexpected news, disappointing results, difficult conversations, spiritual attacks, inner battles. 

I do not ask for a life without rain. I ask for a life with a strong foundation. 

Let every choice I make today be anchored in your word, not in my moods. 

Let every reaction be filtered through the truth of who you are and who l am in you. 

When I feel shaken, remind me that the rock under my feet has not moved. 

God, you are my Rock when everything else feels unstable. 

God, you are my Foundation when other supports crumble. 

God, you are my Unchanging Ground in a changing world. 

Help me to hear your words and do them, not just admire them from a distance. 

And as I build my day on Jesus Christ, let others around me see a different kind of stability. 

A peace that holds in the storm. 

A joy that doesn't evaporate under pressure. 

A faith that still stands when feelings fluctuate. 

So Lord, I give you this day every step, every decision, every battle, every blessing, every need, every relationship. 

Guide me, protect me, fill me, and plant my feet firmly on Christ. 

I thank you that as I walk out of this prayer time, I do not walk out of your presence. 

You go before me, you walk beside me, and you live within me in Jesus' name. Amen.  🙏🏽

今天早上,让上帝掌管一切。在你试图解决所有问题之前,在你反复演练每一场对话之前,在你肩负起一整天的重担之前,让上帝掌管你的日程安排、你的忧虑和你的每一步。


我听过太多人说:“我一出门,光是想到那些会议、那些期望、那些压力,就已经感觉精疲力竭了。”


也许你今天就是这样。还没出门,你的心跳就已经开始加速。但如果你今天做的第一件事不是承担一天的重担,而是把它交托出去,那会怎样呢?


在你面对邮件、交通、截止日期和难缠的人之前,我想让你听到这句话:你并非孤身一人。


上帝的恩典不会在你身后责备你。


祂的恩典会在你前面开路。


祂的保护并非薄弱不堪,而是厚实坚固。


它像盾牌一样环绕着你。 所以,此刻,无论你在哪里,请慢慢地、轻轻地呼吸。如果可以,请将手放在心上片刻,感受它的跳动。


那心跳是恩赐,那呼吸也是恩赐。赐予你这一切的神,此刻正与你一同站在今日的门口。


让我们从神的话语开始,因为恩典并非运气。


它是立约的恩典。


圣经诗篇5:12说,耶和华赐福给义人,用恩惠如同盾牌四面护卫他们。


请想象一下。


恩典并非偶尔幸运地被一束随机的聚光灯照耀。


恩典是一面永不离弃你的盾牌。


它并非偶尔触及你的生命,而是时刻环绕着你。


 箴言3:56告诉我们,要全心信赖耶和华,不可倚靠自己的聪明,凡事都当认定他,他必指引我们的路。


这对你今天早上意味着什么呢?


这意味着,当你走进工作场所时,你不再像一个孤苦伶仃、默默无闻、苦苦挣扎着想要证明自身价值的人。


你带着恩典而来。你不会赤身裸体地遭受批评或拒绝。你的生命被一层保护罩所环绕。


神的恩典在你前面进入办公室、教室、商店、会议室、厨房、汽车,甚至进入你忧虑的谈话。


在你到达之前,神的恩典就已经在房间里,软化人心,为你打开正确的门,关上错误的门。


你无需费尽心思去表现得足够出色或足够迷人,才能被接纳。


 在基督里,你已被接纳。你无需刻意讨好别人。你已被神的微笑所遮盖。


这盾牌不仅保护人,也保护你所走的道路、你所做的决定、你今天将要踏足的地方。


恐惧——认为任何事情都可能发生——与真理——是的,但神环绕着我——相遇。


当你踏入困境,祂的恩典会化作你口中温柔的回答,你内心平静的灵,以及一种并非来自你而是来自祂的平静权柄。


但这应许还有另一部分。


神不仅以恩典环绕你,祂也指引你的道路。


这就是为什么清晨如此重要。


你听到的第一个声音会奠定你一整天的基调。


先祷告,而不是先恐慌。


世人说:“查看手机,查看新闻,查看信息。” 神说:“与我联系。”


 当你全心信靠他,并在你一切所行的事上都承认他时,你就把一天的舵交给了他。


所以,今天早上,不要急着开始你的待办事项清单,而是花点时间把它交托给他。


把你的日程安排、会议、截止日期、项目、电话、琐事和决定都交托给主。


说:“主啊,这些是我的计划,但我不想倚靠自己的聪明。


指引我的脚步。


关闭那些不属于你的门,即使我自以为想要。


打开那些属于你的门,即使它们让我感到吃力。”

如果需要,请随时打断我。


保护我免受我看不见的伤害。


引领我到我需要去的地方。


当你这样做时,你不仅仅是在祈求美好的一天。


你是在让你的整天都与那位走在你前面的神保持一致。


你是在选择行走在祂恩典的盾牌之下,而不是承受自己掌控的重担。


稍后,我们将一起祷告,并将这些真理传扬在你的生命中。


不要匆匆离开。不要跳跃。


请从头到尾与我一同祷告。


让我们一起立约,今天你不会孤单前行。


你将行走在神的恩典和指引之下。


亲爱的天父,奉耶稣基督的名,今天早晨我来到你面前,将今天献给你。


 我将我的身体、我的思想、我的情感、我的灵魂,以及我今天将要经历的一切,都交托于你。


我来到你面前,并非以一个完美无缺的人的身份,而是以一个活祭的身份,分别为圣,归于你的旨意。


求你洁净我的思想。


求你使我的态度与你的心意相合。


求你以你的恩典塑造我的反应。


我不愿今天被匆忙、自负或恐惧所驱使。


我渴望被你的同在所标记。


主啊,我放下执着于己路的权利。


我邀请你掌管我的日程、我的谈话、我的任务,以及我隐秘的时刻。


愿我的言语充满善意。


愿我的眼目如同你一般看待他人。


愿我的心柔软,聆听你的轻声细语。


 神啊,你是我今日的起点,我选择将今日献给你。


天父,我将今日的每一个计划和活动都交托在你手中。


你知道我即将面对的每一次会面、每一条信息、每一个决定。


你知道我心中的紧迫期限和沉重的责任。


我选择不倚靠自己对今日的理解。


相反,我将我的计划交托给你。


请你默想我写下的、安排好的、我的期望。


如果我的计划有任何不合你意的地方,请你温柔地指引我。


如果我忽略了你想让我看到的事情,请你提醒我的灵。


我祈求你指引我的道路,让我在正确的时间出现在正确的地点,做正确的事情。


 愿来自你的干扰化作机遇,愿非来自你的干扰失去力量。


上帝啊,你洞悉全局,而我却只能看到片面。


因此,我祈求你按你的旨意重新安排我的一天。


主啊,我祈求你赐予我恩典,如同盾牌般保护我的名誉和今日的工作。


当我说话、写作、做决定、出现在任何场合时,愿你的恩典与我同在。


引领我进入对话、会议、谈判,以及那些无人察觉的静默工作。


愿我的言语充满恩典与真理。


愿我的出现带来平安,而非紧张。


我祈求,今日凡提及我名字之处,皆蒙受你的恩典,而非误解或攻击。


保护我的名誉,免受谎言、虚假臆断和不公评判的侵害。


 求祢以祢的祝福环绕我的工作,不是为了让我得荣耀,而是为了荣耀祢。


神啊,祢是赐福我手所作之工的那一位。


祢是能使微小的努力结出丰硕果实的那一位。


愿我所追求的卓越成为敬拜祢的行动。


愿我所取得的任何成功都见证祢的良善,而非我的伟大。


求祢以祢的恩惠护佑我的名字、我的言语和我的任务。


最后,天父,我祈求祢为我开启我注定要进入的门,并关闭那些不属于祢的门。


祢洞察摆在我面前的每一个机会、每一份邀请、每一段关系、每一个潜在的联系。


有些门看起来很诱人,实则是陷阱。


有些门看起来很小,却通往命运。


我不想强行进入那些没有祢同在引领我的房间。  


我不想错过你为我预备的房间。


所以我祈求你,打开无人能关的门,关闭无人能开的门。


将合适的人带到我的生命中。


那些能磨砺我的信仰,与你为我生命所定的旨意相契合,帮助我在智慧和顺服中成长的人。


从我的生命中移除那些会让我远离你的关系和人脉,即使它们表面上看起来不错。


神啊,你是我生命中所有门的守护者。


你是使我的道路与我的呼召相符的那一位。


今天,我选择相信,当我以信心和谦卑行事时,你会安排神圣的约会,建立正确的关系,并引导我进入你的恩典和旨意交汇的地方。


 主啊,今天早上我感谢您,让我不必在黑暗中摸索、被动应对、跌跌撞撞地度过这一天。


我祈求您指引我的每一步。


圣灵,请指引我做出重大决定,也指引我做出那些无人察觉的细微抉择。


当我从祷告中起身时,请引领我。


当我选择言辞、回复信息、决定关注什么、以及将什么留待以后处理时,请引领我。


请帮助我不要倚靠自己的理解,而是相信,当我承认你的存在时,你正在指引我的道路。


当我面前有两个选择,而且看起来都不错时,请轻声告诉我该走哪条路。


当我想要匆忙行事时,请让我慢下来。


当我因恐惧而犹豫不决时,请轻轻地推我向前。


上帝啊,当我感到迷茫时,你是我的指南针。


上帝啊,当道路弯曲,我看不清前方时,你是我的牧者。


上帝啊,当道路昏暗时,你是我的光。


愿你的声音今天胜过我的焦虑。  


愿您温柔的信念胜过任何人的压力。


指引我的脚步,使我今日结束时,可以回首往事,说:“这并非我一人之计划,而是天父的指引。”


主啊,我也祈求您保护我,使我免受仇敌的一切陷阱。


您看见我道路上布下的重重陷阱。


分心的陷阱、冒犯的陷阱、情欲的陷阱、骄傲的陷阱、愤怒的陷阱、沮丧的陷阱。


您看见仇敌想要在我心中植入的隐秘谎言。


那些谎言告诉我,我孤身一人,被人遗忘,无人保护。


您看见那些情绪的触发点,它们能在瞬间改变我的一整天。


所以,我祈求您,保守我平安。


保护我免受身体上的危险、意外、突如其来的伤害,以及任何针对我生命的邪恶计划。


 求祢保守我远离属灵的危险,远离引诱我偏离真理的声音,远离削弱我信仰的影响,远离使我心硬而非使我更亲近祢的时刻。


求祢保守我远离情感的陷阱,远离不必要的争吵,远离愤怒中说出的令我后悔的话语,远离开启纷争之门的反应。


主啊,祢的话语说,祢会差遣天使在我行的一切道路上保护我。愿祢的应许今天在我身上成为现实。


求祢挡在我与仇敌所设的每一个陷阱之间。


如果我即将踏入会让我陷入困境的境地,求祢将我拉回。


如果我即将认同谎言,求祢打断我的思绪。


神啊,当我懵懂无知时,祢是我的保护者。


神啊,当我无力自卫时,祢是我的捍卫者。


神啊,当我心神不宁,甚至没有意识到自己身处险境时,祢是我的守护者。


 求祢用祢的庇护之手环绕我和我所爱的人。


天父,我祈求祢赐予我智慧和明辨力,让我能顺利度过今天。


祢知道我面前有多少大大小小的抉择。


该对什么说“是”,该对什么说“不”,该如何回应,何时该等待,何时该行动。


我承认,当我只凭感觉行事时,我常常后悔自己的选择。


所以我祈求,赐予我超越情感的智慧。


赐予我明辨力,让我能看透表象。


让我明白什么是对的,什么是似是而非的,什么是看似美好的,什么是真正出于祢的。


祢的圣言说,凡缺少智慧的,都可以求祢,祢必慷慨赐予。


主啊,我祈求祢使我的头脑充满清晰的思考,使我的心充满明辨的判断。


 主啊,我记得所罗门王,当他有机会祈求任何事物时,他没有祈求财富或长寿,而是祈求智慧来治理国家。这令你喜悦。你赐予他的远不止智慧。


今天,我也想以同样的方式荣耀你。


比起成功,我更渴望你的智慧。


比起你的安慰,我更渴望你的洞察力。


比起快速的答案,我更渴望拥有一颗能像你一样看待事物的心。


神啊,当我迷茫困惑时,你是我的顾问。


神啊,当我感到经验不足时,你是我的老师。


神啊,当情况复杂时,你是我的洞察力。


愿我不因一时的情绪而做出永久性的决定。


愿我不说出无法收回的话。


求你帮助我停下来,说:“圣灵,你的想法是什么?”然后跟随你的指引。


 主啊,在压力之中,我祈求您赐予我平安。


您知道,当待办事项清单似乎太长,当人们都在等待我的答复,当时间似乎太过紧迫时,我胸口会感到多么沉重。您也知道,当各种通知、截止日期和期望同时涌来,我的心几乎要崩溃的那一刻。


在那些时刻,求您让我的心思专注于您。


您的圣言说,您必保守那专心仰望您的人,因为他信靠您。


愿这成为我今日的真实写照。


当工作堆积如山时,求您让我记住,我并非独自承受。


当人们对我的要求超过我的能力范围时,求您让我记住,我的力量并非来自我自己,而是来自您赐予我的圣灵。


当我感到被推、被催促或被挤压时,求您帮助我深呼吸,并说:“主啊,您仍然坐在宝座上。


您并不焦虑。”


你没有迟到。


你没有被压垮。


上帝,你是我在混乱中的平静。


上帝,你是我在风暴中的安宁。


上帝,你是我在一切似乎都太过匆忙时所倚靠的稳定之手。


求你赐予我平安,这平安不依赖于一切的井然有序或可预测。


愿这平安如同守卫大门的士兵,守护我的心,不让恐慌、恐惧或绝望侵入。


愿我成为一个在压力重重的环境中也能保持平安的人,因为我与你同在。


天父,我将我生命中的一切需要都交托给你。


我感谢你,你是供应一切的上帝。


你知道我所担忧的经济需求,账单、义务和意外开支。


你知道我需要身体的力量,需要精力来度过每一天,需要头脑清晰。


 你知道我需要时间,去做必须要做的事,休息,陪伴我爱的人。


你知道我需要灵感、创造力,以及解决我尚未解决的问题的答案。


你的话语说,你必照你荣耀的丰富,在基督耶稣里,供应我们一切的需要。


所以今天,我信靠这应许。


我宣告,我不会被遗弃,独自面对一切。


我有天父,祂预见未来,供应一切所需。


神啊,当我感到匮乏时,你是我的源泉。


神啊,当我感到力不从心时,你是我的供应者。


神啊,当我感到力不从心时,你是我的力量。


神啊,当我的身体发出“我已筋疲力竭”的声音时,你是我的依靠。


在缺乏的地方,求你赐予充足。


在充足的地方,求你使我满溢,好让我祝福他人。


求你教导我日复一日地信靠你。


就像以色列人在旷野中领受吗哪一样。


 恰到好处,只够当日所需,却总是准时。


愿我的心更多地专注于赐予者——祢,而非礼物本身。


即便我祈求供应,也求祢让我对祢已成就的一切心怀感恩。


主啊,我祈求祢打开天上的闸门,以祢认为最佳的方式,将祢的祝福倾注于我的生命。


不仅是物质上的祝福,更是塑造我品格、荣耀祢名的祝福。


倾注符合祢旨意的机会。


在我不具备优势的地方,倾注恩惠。


在不经意间,从意想不到的人那里,倾注支持和鼓励。


愿我手所做的工结出丰硕的果实。


愿我凭信心撒下的种子开始结出可见的果实。


在干旱之处,降下甘霖。


在紧闭已久的门扉,祢开始打开它们。


 上帝啊,您能在一瞬间成就我一生所能成就的。


您能让我遇见对的人。


您能开启正确的门,赐予正确的灵感,改变我人生的轨迹。


我并非将祝福当作偶像。


我祈求您的祝福,是为了能全心全意地为您而活,更好地服侍他人,并见证您的恩典。


 我敞开心扉,伸出双手,说:“主啊,无论您要倾注什么,我都在这里,我愿意接受。”


求您除去我心中任何因虚假的谦卑或恐惧而抗拒接受您恩典的念头。


慈爱的天父,求您教导我仰望您的恩典。


天父,我祈求您祝福我的家人,遮盖我的家。


求您看顾我们今天、每一天、每个清晨和每个夜晚的出入。


当我的家人开始一天中各自的工作、学习、琐事和责任时,我祈求您用您的保护环绕他们。


求您保护我们的孩子免受伤害,免受不良影响,免受关于他们身份和价值的谎言的伤害。


求您保护我们的婚姻免于分裂、冷漠和怨恨。


求您保护我们的家免于纷争、沉重和属灵的黑暗。


愿我们的家成为一个即使在日常生活中,在餐桌旁,在交谈中,都能感受到您同在的地方。 在静谧的独处时光里,欢笑声响起。


上帝,您是我们家的守护者。


您守护着我们,无论我们入睡还是醒来。


请用您的保护遮盖我们的门窗。


愿您的平安成为我们呼吸的空气。


在曾经的紧张中,您带来和解。


在曾经的误解中,您带来清晰的解释和怜悯。


在曾经的疏离中,您带来亲近。


我将我的家人交托在您的手中,相信您比我更爱他们,即使我无法做到,您也能在他们的心中动工。


最后,主啊,我祈求您帮助我将这一天建立在耶稣这磐石之上。


我不想将我的人生建立在瞬息万变的情绪之上。


我不想将我的人生建立在他人认可的沙土之上,也不想建立在自我表现的沙土之上。


我记得…… 耶稣讲过一个关于智者把房子盖在磐石上的故事。雨水倾盆而下,洪水泛滥,狂风怒吼,房子却屹立不倒,因为它的根基立在磐石上。


我知道今日的风暴或许会来临:意想不到的消息、令人失望的结果、艰难的对话、属灵的攻击、内心的挣扎。

我不求没有风雨的生活,我求的是一个根基稳固的生活。


愿我今日的每一个选择都扎根于你的话语,而非我的情绪。


愿我的每一个反应都透过你以及我在你里面的真理而过滤。


当我感到动摇时,请提醒我,我脚下的磐石从未动摇。


神啊,当一切都摇摇欲坠时,你是我的磐石。


神啊,当其他支撑崩塌时,你是我的根基。


神啊,在变幻莫测的世界中,你是我的永恒磐石。


请帮助我聆听你的话语并付诸实践,而不仅仅是远远地仰望。


当我以耶稣基督为生命根基时,愿我周围的人看到另一种稳固:


一种在风暴中屹立不倒的平安;


一种在压力下永不消逝的喜乐;


一种在情绪起伏中依然坚守的信仰。


 主啊,我今天将每一步、每一个决定、每一场战斗、每一份祝福、每一个需要、每一段关系都交托给你。


求你引导我、保护我、充满我,并使我的脚牢牢地立在基督里。


感谢你,当我结束祷告时,我并没有离开你的同在。


你走在我前面,你与我同行,你住在我里面,奉耶稣的名祷告。阿们。🙏🏽


此处继续
