Morning Prayer
This week we are asking GOD for powerful testimonies each morning:
Heavenly Father, You made me one of a kind, placed me in the exact time and place You want me, and surrounded me with a unique group of friends and family. Help me demonstrate humility and sacrifice today—considering others before myself, bringing You glory. May Your peace lead me wherever I go and keep me blameless in all my steps. Strengthen me through Your Holy Spirit so my life is a powerful testimony of Your love, grace, and peace. Your divine power has given me everything I need for a godly life!
—Adapted from John 14:26; Philippians 2:3-4; 1 Thessalonians 5:23; 2 peter 1:3

Evening Prayer
Set an alarm for this evening so you remember to end your day with God.
Lord, I praise and honor You! You have not despised or scorned me. You have not hidden Your face from me but have listened to every prayer. My praise comes from how awesome You are. Because of You, the poor are fed, and those who seek You find You. All glory and power belong to You. You are sovereign and know the beginning from the end. Help me influence future generations to follow You because of how I live my life now. I worship You and declare: You are doing great things! Amen.
