Word of the Day

Heavenly Father, today I ask that you open up my heart so that I can experience being free from depending on anyone more than I depend on you. Lord, my desire is to fully submit to you, to allow you to be my El Shaddai. Lord, I ask that you open my heart, that you remove any bitterness, any pain.

Any anxiety that I am currently carrying? Lord, remove it from me. Any false idols that I might be worshipping, At times, I find myself worshipping money or things or looking to the left or the right and idolizing other people, Lord. I ask you to remove that from me. Those are fleshly desires that are not of you.

Lord hold me, keep me, be with me today, Lord. Strengthen my heart, strengthen my mind, be a hedge of protection around me, Lord. And as I ask and as I work hard to deny my flesh and not allow the things that I feel to determine how I pray or how I show up, Lord remind me that my feelings are fleeting. My feelings come and go.

the things that you have told me, the things that you have purposed to me in my heart, those are the things that I should focus on. So in my coming and in my going, in my labor and in my leisure, Lord, I ask you to lift me up. Be with me today, Jesus. I love you. Amen.
