PRAYER FOR TODAY - December 11, 2016 (Laying Down Every Weight and Worry and Praying God's Love Flows To Us and Through Us)

Thank You Father for a new day filled with Your love, grace, mercy, and strength.   Father thank You for all that You have done and for all that You are doing in and through our lives.

Right now Father we come to You.   As we come to You Father, we lay down every weight and every worry.   Father You are God.   You see all, know all, and can do all things.  Thank You Father for fulfilling Your plan and Your purpose in and through our lives.

Father there have been times in our lives where we just didn't know how we were going to make it but You made a way.  Thank You Father for continuing to make a way where there appears to be no way.    Father thank You for healing us and for delivering us.   Thank You Father for being our strength in our moments of weakness.

Father today is a new day and You have saw fit to bring us into this new day with You.   Now Father we ask that You lead, guide, and direct our footsteps.   Father we desire to be good representatives of You.   Father we pray that when people look at our lives, they see You.   We pray that when they come in our presence, that they feel Your love and Your peace.   Father let who You are flow not only to us but through us in Jesus name ... Amen.

SCRIPTURE MEDITATION

1 John 4:11-13 

King James Version (KJV)

¹¹ Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

¹² No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us.

¹³ Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
