Morning Prayer – denisebalog…Grace filled devotionals.

Splendor’s Light

“Thank You, Father, for this day.

Peace settles as a gentle way.

Paths before me, open doors.

Abundant life, so much more!

Let my heart trust in You.

Let not it wrestle as its prone to do.

For we walk by faith and not by sight,

Let my head follow my heart,

On the Your path of Splendor’s light.”

“Your Word is a lamp to my feet

And a light to my path.”

Psalm 119:105 NKJV

“I’ve chosen to obey Your truth

And walk in the splendor-light of all that You teach me.”

Psalm 119:30 TPT

Splendor, light filled, path’s way.

Good Hope

“Pencil and rhyme together,

Lifting up my praise.

For in You, I have my heart, and

Good hope for all my days.”

“Uphold me according to Your Word,

That I may live; And do not let me be

Ashamed of my hope.”

Psalm 119:116 NKJV

Uphold me…resting upon the wings of the Dove.

Blessings,

Denise

Strength Us

Good morning LORD,

El Ohiym, Adonai.

You never change, or ever lie.

Bring forth Your justice as the rising sun.

Our world is shaking, rocking, for each and every one.

Cause the evil hearts of men to turn to love instead;

For peace is found in freedom and not in fear and dread.

Lifting up those hurting, sick and displaced.

In Your care Lord, we place them for You alone are

The Creator of the whole human race.

Come Lord Jesus! We wait on You.

Strengthen us as You tarry,

For we place our trust in You.

“For my soul trust in You;

And in the shadow of Your wings I will make my refuge,

Until these calamities have passed by.”

Psalm 57:1 NKJV

Notes Ring

“Windchimes remind me the

South breeze blows.

Notes ring the air,

“Only He knows.”

Changing is coming,

Sure as the breeze.

It may not have happened yesterday,

But according to Your Word Lord, please.”

“God is a just Judge,

And God is angry with the wicked every day.

If He does not turn back,

He will sharpen His sword;

He bends His bow and makes it ready.”

Psalm 7:11&12 NKJV

“In Him also we have obtained an inheritance,

Being predestined according to the purpose of Him

Who works all things according to the

Counsel of His will…”

Ephesians 1:11 NKJV

“…and proclaim liberty throughout all the land

To all its inhabitants…” Leviticus 25:10 NKJV

Awaken the Sun!

“Magnificent morning sunrise!

In peace we say, “Goodbye.”

2021 you’ve been filled with numerous challenges,

And tears shed by many people’s eyes.

It’s not your fault you were numbered “2021,”

For you’ve been faithful each day to come.

But, who knows if in God’s time,

You were called to awaken all people

To His Son.”

“The sun shall no longer be your light by day,

Nor for brightness shall the moon give light to you;

But the LORD will be to you an everlasting light,

And your God your glory.

Your sun shall no longer go down,

Nor shall your moon withdraw itself;

For the LORD will be your everlasting light,

And the days of your mourning shall be ended.”

Isaiah 60:19-20 NKJV

Thank you fellow bloggers for stopping by and your encouragement throughout the year.

Blessings in the New Year to come!

A Good Expectation

“Thank You Lord, for this day.

No expectations, only play.

Snoring dog on pillow resides;

Christmas tree in hope reminds.

This year has nearly come to close,

But here at Your feet,

A confident expectation of Your good

In the coming new year glows.”

“Out of Zion, the Perfection of Beauty,

God will shine forth.

Psalm 50:2 NKJV

Blessings to you and your household from Abby and me.

Peaceful Heart

“Thank You Lord for Your faithfulness;

Yesterday, today and tomorrow.

Let me not borrow pain;

Nor be another’s sorrow.

Thank You for reminding me,

Even when I sleep,

You’re looking out for all my ways,

And in Your health You’ll keep.

Fix my eyes on Your plans;

Peaceful heart and stable land.

Assured You speak the best to me,

For in Christ Jesus,

I’m truly free!”

“You will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You;

Because he trust in You.”

Isaiah 26:3 NKJV

Thankful Goodness

“My heart is filled with wonder, a good and pleasant theme.

Thanksgiving to my Savior, Who never, no, not once, forgot or abandoned me.

Thankful for His goodness, drawing me each day.

His beauty seen in nature; for He is the only way.

Sunrises on the morning,

Light in rainy days,

Protection when darkness hovers,

Correction when I’ve lost my way.

I’m thankful for Your Presence,

Immanuel with me.

For in Your Peace and Kindness,

My heart sings out to Thee!”

“I will worship You, Yahweh, with extended hands as my heart erupts with praise!

I will tell everyone everywhere about Your wonderful works!

I will be glad and shout in triumph.

I will sing praise to Your exalted name, O Most High.”

Psalm 9:1&2 The Passion Translation

My family and I are celebrating Thanksgiving today as it is my son’s day off from work.

Blessings to you and your family as we embrace this week of Thanksgiving!
