The Morning Prayer
Friday, October 6, 2023

Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. I have made you known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.
John 17:25–26 (NIV)

Heavenly Father, Righteous and Eternal, as I wake to the dawn of a new day, I am reminded of Your unchanging nature in a world that's constantly shifting. Though the world may not know You, I am grateful that I do. I am grateful for the love You have showered upon me, and for sending Your Son, Jesus Christ, so that I may know You more fully.

Lord, just as Jesus has made You known to us, help me to make You known to others today. Let the words I speak, the love I share, and the life I live be a testimony to Your goodness and righteousness. I ask that You equip me, Father, to continue the work that Jesus began, the work of revealing You to a world in need.

I pray that the love You have for Jesus may be manifest in me, filling me with grace, compassion, and a yearning for Your will. Let that love be a beacon to others, drawing them closer to You, igniting in them the same desire to know and to love You.

May Jesus Himself be in me as I step out into this day, guiding my actions, words, and thoughts. As He is in me, may I also be in Him, unified in purpose and love, a living testament to Your eternal glory.

In Jesus' name, I pray, Amen.

May this prayer guide you and give you peace as you go through your day.
