Today's Verse - Psalm 5:3 (KJV)

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

—Psalm 5:3 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...​

When I read this verse, I remember ###, a beloved elder in a church where I once preached and a dedicated prayer warrior. He would quote this verse every morning before he entered into prayer. He often quoted this verse with tears in his eyes because he did expectantly wait for the LORD to join him and to answer! Why the tears? Because prayer is so much more — more than we realize and more than we can explain. It is more than making requests. It is more than offering praise. It is more than giving thanks. It is more than interceding for others. It is more than the positions we use to pray — kneeling, prostrating, or bowing before God. Prayer is us knowing God wants us there and loves when we "wait in expectation" for him and his answers to our prayers. Prayer is expecting God to act and bring his redemption in response to our prayers. It is eagerly expecting that God will meet us in our prayer time and do what is best for us, and those for whom we pray.

My Prayer...​

Loving Father and Eternal God, thank you for meeting me in this prayer time. I know you hear me and care about what I share with you. Thank you for paying attention to someone like me and accepting me as your precious child. Thank you! O LORD, I wait in expectation to see you move in the lives of people for whom I pray. In Jesus' mighty name. Amen.

[Corolinah]

Before we get up from bed, we must pray, praise and adore His holy name. He is giving us another day to glorify His holy name. Amen

[Pudwy]

Отче Небесний, дозволь мені наблизитися до Тебе максимально близько, щоб я ясно чула голос Твій у Дусі Святому. Очисти мене від всякого гріха, який має над мною владу, навіть таємного, який стоїть зараз між мною і Тобою і заважає мені чути Тебе. Дай мені скерування до тих місць Писання, де Ти приготував для мене. Відкрий мені волю Твою щодо тих питань, які я маю, що до наміру та дій. Благослови моє підприємство недостатньою сумою для запуску. Приведи працівників для виконання робіт тих, які Ти приготував. Дай нам офіс для роботи та знарядь усіма матеріалами (технікою для виконання завдань поставлених перед нами). Допоможи нам прийняти виклики і розробити маркетинговий план для розповсюдження Слова Божого через нашу місію. Амін.
