The
morning is the perfect time to pray. It gets you focused on God and
helps you meditate on those you love and yourself, as well. There are
many great ways to pray in the morning. Here are 7 of them.
Being Thankful
Dear Lord, thank you so much for another
day of life on Earth. Thank you for another beautiful sunrise to
enjoy. Thank you for the wonderful sounds of nature, from the cool
breeze brushing through the trees to the birds singing melodies. You
are a wonderful God, full of grace and mercy. I praise you for allowing
me another day to spend with my family. I love you Father! Amen.
“The flowers appear on the earth, the time of singing has come,
and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.”
Song of Solomon 2:12
and the voice of the turtledove is heard in our land.”
Song of Solomon 2:12
Strength
Dear Lord, I pray that you would give me strength
to be strong for You in the world today. Lord, you know the struggles
that I will face today. Be with me as I go through them. Carry me if I
am too weak to move. If I stumble in them, forgive me Father. When I
succeed in them, I will praise You! You are worthy of all praise and
honor. Amen.
“My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
Psalm 73:26
but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.”
Psalm 73:26
Family
The morning is the perfect time to pray
Dear Gracious Father, I praise You for
my family. Thank you for my spouse. Even in his/her weaknesses, I love
him/her unconditionally. Thank you for my children. Every time I hear
the pitter-patter of their feet across the house I smile. Joy
overwhelms me Father! Be with my family today as they go their separate
ways. Bring us all back home safely to each other I pray. Amen.
“Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house;
your children will be like olive shoots around your table.”
Psalm 128:3
your children will be like olive shoots around your table.”
Psalm 128:3
Career
Dear God, I thank you for my job. You
have provided me with a steady income and I thank you. I pray that you
watch over me today at work and I pray that there are no accidents, so
that everyone can go back to their homes. I thank you that my job has
provided an income to support me and my family. I thank you for the
provisions that you have given to me, my house, car and food. I pray
for safe travels to and from work and I pray that you will use me as you
see fit today for Your Glory. Amen.
“Commit your work to the Lord,
and your plans will be established.”
Proverbs 16:3
and your plans will be established.”
Proverbs 16:3
Men and Women Overseas
Dear Merciful Father, I pray that you
would keep your hand on our men and women defending our country so that
we can be free. Be with our soldiers
as they go onto their assignments. Bring them back to base safely. I
praise you for our brave men and women! I thank you for our brave men
and women! I also pray that you give them the skills that they need in
every moment, so that they can come back home safely to their families.
“Blessed be the Lord, my rock, who trains my hands for war,
and my fingers for battle.”
Psalm 144:1
and my fingers for battle.”
Psalm 144:1
Opportunities
Dear Lord, I pray today that I will
yield my spirit completely to You, that You may use me as You please. I
pray that You will provide me opportunities to show people how much You
mean to me. Give me discretion to know what to say and how to say it.
Make me bold enough, that I may proclaim salvation cheerfully and
joyfully. I pray that the seeds You allow me to plant will grow and
mature. I pray that You, Father, will water the seeds that You allow me
to plant today. I am forever grateful for the cross; may I proclaim it
in a contagious way today. Amen.
“Do not be anxious about how you should defend yourself
or what you should say,
for the Holy Spirit will teach you
in that very hour what you ought to say.”
Luke 12:11b-12
or what you should say,
for the Holy Spirit will teach you
in that very hour what you ought to say.”
Luke 12:11b-12
Contentment
Dear Glorious Father, I pray that I will
stay focused on you today. I pray that You will constantly remind me
to be content in all of my circumstances. I pray that You will fill me
up that I may be joyful all day, even if stress creeps in. I know that
through my contentment, You will be glorified. I want to honor You, Father, in all that I do. I praise Your Holy Name! Amen
“Not that I am speaking of being in need,
for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.
I know how to be brought low,
and I know how to abound.
In any and every circumstance,
I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger,
abundance and need.
I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”
Philippians 4:11-13
for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content.

Philippians 4:11-13
Conclusion
You can have such wonderful encounters
with God when you approach His throne in the morning. I encourage you
to start praying when you wake up, if you aren’t already doing so. When
you wake with God you take Him with you too. God bless you as you live
a life worthy of the calling.
