Unfailing Love Each Morning

 



 

Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,

    for I am trusting you.

Show me where to walk,

    for I give myself to you.

 

Psalm 143:8 (NLT)

 








O LORD of Love That Never Fails,

 

With each new morning, help me to listen and hear how You love me, and respond to Your love by offering my love in return—by giving myself to You.

 

Too often, I have rushed into a new day—self-centeredly pursuing my own plans and ideas—without first spending time to listen for what You would say to me, to hear of Your unfailingly love for me.

 

Help me not to forget how critical it is that I open the Bible—Your love story written to me—and allow You to speak to me, by Your Holy Spirit, as I read—and as You reveal—the Truth that is waiting there for me.

 

As I study Your Word each morning, help me to hear the message of Your unfailing loving-kindness for me and teach me of the goodness of Your ways—so that I will be drawn into an ever-closer relationship with You and my faith will be made increasingly stronger.

 

As I come before You in prayer, help me submit my will to Yours alone and allow You to show me the ways that I should go.

 

Help me to follow the best path for me—where I can experience Your strength, Your plan, Your provision, Your protection, Your peace, Your joy, but most of all Your unfailing love for me.

 

With each new morning, help me to listen and hear how You love me, and respond to Your love by offering my love in return—by giving myself to You.

 

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Purpose That Prevails



Many are the plans in a person’s heart,
    but it is the L
ORD’s purpose that prevails.

—Proverbs 19:21 (NIV)


Sovereign LORD,


Help me always to lift up my plans before You—with my palms wide open—as I submit my will to Your will and my life to Your perfect purpose.


You know every plan of my heart—before it is ever formed in my thoughts.

You know when I make my plans—in perfect concert with Your will for me.

You know when I make my plans—without first consulting You at all.

You know when I make my plans—after much prayer and meditation on Your Word.

You know when I make my plans—despite what I have heard from You, in great foolishness and selfishness.

Yet despite all my plans, it is always Your purpose that prevails.

So mold my plans to accomplish Your purposes—and help me to have faith to believe that You will do great things in my life, in order to glorify Yourself in me.

And help me to remember that Your plans are always crafted with my best interest at heart—a reflection of Your perfect and unfailing love for me.


Help me always to lift up my plans before You—with my palms wide open—as I submit my will to Your will and my life to Your perfect purpose.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
