My Daily Prayer

Hello everyone!

One of my favorite ways to start my day is by praying over myself, as well as the people that I will be interacting with throughout the day. It's my way of centering myself and setting an intention of peace, joy, and compassion. I strongly believe that taking a few minutes to pray over yourself, loved ones, and asking God to protect and bless you has immense benefits. Here is my personal prayer. Feel free to use this as an outline and revise for yourself where necessary.

Father God,
Thank you for waking me up this morning and breathing Your life-giving spirit into my lungs.
Thank you for all the great things You have in store for me today.

Lord, thank You for my loving family. I pray that You will bless each of them today and surround them with Your love and mercies. Protect them from anything or anyone who wants to harm them or cause them to fall away from You. May they feel your presence and immense love for them today and may they be filled with joy, peace, and wisdom.

Father, thank You for all those who I will interact with today. May I be a source of light and hope to them and a beacon of your love. Lord, please help me show unconditional compassion and grace to them. May my words and actions point to You and may they honor and glorify You. Prevent me from saying or doing anything that will cause confusion, pain, division, or hostility. Help me to spread peace and healing to those that need a kind, gentle, and humble friend.

Father, I pray for myself today. Please keep me safe from the enemy or anything or anyone that wishes to cause me harm. I ask that I will be constantly reminded of Your love and grace in my life. Keep me humble and close to Your will and may I be someone who listens more than I speak and is slow to become angry. Lord, help me to stand firm in my faith and stay faithful to You alone. May I walk in love as You loved me and gave Yourself up for me as a fragrant offering.

Jesus, I am so excited to experience all that this day has to offer with You. You have made another beautiful day and I choose to celebrate Your goodness today. Thank You for all the many blessings in my life. I do not deserve Your kindness, yet You still pour out Your love upon me. I am in awe of You. I love you, Lord.

Amen.

Peace and Joy,
Chloe
