A Brand New Day

O Lord, as we start our day, may we be of a right and sound mind. Take away anything that displeases you. Let any confusion, anger, resentment, desires of any state of mind that causes us to fall be removed at once. May all discontent and harm of our thoughts not be carried out through our words and actions. Let us live this day according to Your will and purpose, being a godly example to those around us. Lead us into our day that is about Your peace and love. Let righteousness go forth in our steps and out of our mouths. Reside in the temple that keeps You with us. May all that we are, all that we strive to be, be used for the praise and glory of excellence found in You. Bless those who seek You, those who have turned their backs on you, those lost in darkness who have yet to meet you and receive salvation. May Your light shine in those dead areas that will arise and praise Your holy name. Rain down melodies from heaven that the earth will rejoice! Lastly, please be with those who are sick. Heal them from the crown of their heads to the soles of their feet. Restore them in their mind, body and spirit. We welcome You Lord. Draw near to us as we draw near to you. Hallelujah! Thank you for Who you are and all that you are. With all that is within, may we be grateful that you allowed us to live yet another day, not by any thing that we have done, but by Your mercy and grace, we are here. Father, thank you for favor. In the name of Jesus I bring this prayer before you. Amen.
