Father, thank You for this Friday. Thank You for seeing us through another work week and bringing us to the weekend. Father, we pray that this weekend will be filled with rest, refreshment, and quiet time with You. Our lives can seem so overwhelming and confusing, but we know that You are there by our side always.
Lord, thank You for guiding our path. We know that You are doing 10,000 things in our lives, even if we are only aware of a few of them. Lord, help us recognize Your Spirit. Bring us deeper into a knowledge of You, so that even in times of adversity, we can rest in the knowledge that You are with us.
Holy Spirit, please wash us with Your love. We repent of our sins, and we pray for help to do better in time. We rejoice that You are forgiving and full of such a grace that ushers us forth into freedom. Our times and our days rest in Your hands, and we know that even in anguish, You have a plan for our benefit and the glorification of the kingdom. Help us to trust You in such times and be filled with overwhelming peace.
Thank You, Lord, for this beautiful day. May we increase in You, may we come into an abundance of Your love.
In Jesus' name, Amen.
Lord God, I give You unending thanks, for You have brought me once again to the end of another day. I am grateful that I have seen yet another day pass, and You have kept me and blessed me from sunrise to sunset. Continue to bless me during the night and continue to guide my steps each day of my life. In Jesus' powerful name. Amen.
Lord Jesus, I cannot begin to express how thankful I am for the things You have blessed me with. I know I am not worthy of the grace You have given me. I have sinned much, yet You do not turn Your face away from me. Lord, do not withdraw Your presence from me. Give me a gracious heart and spirit. Allow me to reflect upon this day with thankfulness. Lord, in Your abundant mercy. Amen.
Heavenly Father, I thank You again through Your Son Jesus Christ that You have used me greatly to spread the message of Your kingdom. You have brought me honest work and provided me with wonderful friends and family. Grant me this night rest from my labors, that I might wake again tomorrow ready to serve You in my vocation. Amen.
Father, You make the sun rise and fall each day of our lives. We can trust in Your goodness, just as we can trust that the sun will rise again in the morning. Lord, as the light descends beyond the horizon, let us remember that You are the light of the world. Let us be assured that the sun will come up tomorrow and drive away all darkness. Prepare our hearts to enter Your unapproachable and all-inviting light. In Your name, we pray. Amen.
I thank You Heavenly Father, for You have provided all the things necessary to sustain my life. You feed Your servants by Your hand, and You have blessed us abundantly. Continue to provide and sustain us tomorrow as well. Help us to live each day with a thankful heart. Help us not to covet, but to be grateful for the things You have given us. In Jesus's name. Amen.
Lord God, although there was a myriad of things that could have happened to me today, in Your mercy, You saw to it that I lived to see yet another day. From the rising of the sun to its setting, Your name alone is to be praised. You have kept me from the dangers of the evil one. Lord, protect me as I sleep tonight also. Keep my mind from wandering into impure thoughts and dreams. Ease the anxiety in my heart and mind and help me to sleep in peace. Amen.
God of all grace, You allow Your servants to proclaim the good news to every living thing. Today, You provided me with opportunities to witness to Your saving power. You have given me a way to proclaim the Gospel through many vocations. Lord, the harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Continue to send me out to Your vineyards, that I might help to produce a harvest for Your kingdom. In Your mercy, I pray. Amen.
