This is the day the LORD has made.
We will rejoice and be glad in it.—Psalm 118:24 (NLT)
One and Only Creator God,
You, O LORD, have made this day! So, I choose to rejoice and be glad in it!
Before You created everything there is—before You placed it all in order and set it all in motion—You knew this day would come, You knew the good plans You had for me today!
Today, I get to choose whether to embrace Your plans with joy and gladness, or to resist Your plans—as if to think that I would know better than You what is best for me—and only reap a harvest of trouble and hardship for my efforts.
So, help me open my eyes to all that You have done for me, to rejoice, and gladly and obediently submit my will to Your sovereign plans for me. Help me to see that You have called me and saved me for such a time as this.
Grant me the faith to believe that You have already arranged to supply me with everything that I need to accomplish Your will for me today and that, in doing so, You have made it possible for me to live this day with deep peace and enduring joy!
You, O LORD, have made this day! So, I choose to rejoice and be glad in it!
In the name of Jesus, Amen.
