Season 1

Episode 392: Gratitude

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Generosity
Your love is in me, Father, and because of that love, I express generosity to my brothers and sisters. If they are in need, and I can help, I do. I help them to carry their burdens, and in so doing, I fulfill the law of Christ. 
I do good and share with others and you are pleased with my sacrifices. It's the least I can do, after you gave so much for me. 
Father, I know that when I give, it is given to me. In good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, blessings are poured into my lap. I use a generous measure, and with the measure I use, it is measured to me in return. 
I do not rely on earthly possessions, but I store up a treasure for myself in a purse that will not wear out, a treasure in heaven that will never fail, that no thief can steal and no moth can destroy. And where my treasure is, there is my heart. 
I do not shut my ears to the cries of the poor. Your word says that when I am kind and lend to the poor, it is as though I am lending directly to you, and you will repay me. And I know that you are always faithful, Father. 
I am not arrogant and I do not put my hope in wealth, which is so uncertain. I put my hope in you, and you richly provide me with everything I need for my enjoyment. I do good, and I am rich in good deeds. I am generous and willing to share. In this way I lay up treasure for myself as a firm foundation for the coming age, so that I may take hold of the life that is truly life.
When I give, it is as a generous gift, not as one grudgingly given. I sow generously and I also reap generously. I give what I have decided in my heart, with prayerful consideration, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for I know that you love a cheerful giver. 
I do not practice my righteousness in front of others to be seen by them. When I give to the needy, I don't announce it or make a big deal out of it. Rather, I do it in secret -- almost as if my left hand doesn't know what my right hand is doing. And you, Father, see what is done in secret and will give me any reward that is due. 
I share generously from the abundant blessings you have given me. And I lack nothing. I am generous and lend freely, and even my descendants are a blessing. Good comes to me. My righteousness will endure forever, and you will lift me high in honor. 
You enrich me in every way so that I can be generous on every occasion, and my generosity results in thanksgiving to you, Father. Jesus taught me that it is more blessed to give than to receive. 
I am generous, and you make me prosper. I refresh others, and I am refreshed. 
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 391: Kindness

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Kindness
Love is kind. And you are love. You have asked me to act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with you Father. As your chosen one, I clothe myself with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Your Spirit abides in me, and kindness is a fruit of your Spirit. 
I don't let any unwholesome talk come out of my mouth, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen. 
I am kind and compassionate to my brothers and sisters, forgiving others, just as in Christ you forgave me. You have shown me the incomparable riches of your grace, expressed in your kindness to me in Christ Jesus. With everlasting kindness, you have compassion on me. You are the Lord, my redeemer. It is your kindness that led me to repentance.
I do good to all people as I have opportunity, especially to those who belong to the family of faith. I love my enemies and I am kind to them. I lend without expecting to get anything back. If I have any reward due, you will reward me Father, because you are kind even to the ungrateful and wicked. I do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, I show kindness and repay evil with blessing, because I was called to do so that I may inherit a blessing. 
You are merciful and gracious, patient and abundant in kindness and truth. You are faithful, showing your lovingkindness to me. And your lovingkindness endures forever. 
There is no God like you in heaven or in the earth. You keep your covenant with me and show lovingkindness to me. I walk before you with all my heart. 
Father, you are a God ready to pardon. You are gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness. You will never forsake me. 
You have given me life and favor, and preserve my spirit with your lovingkindness.  
I trust in your lovingkindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation and I shall not be moved. Your goodness and lovingkindness shall follow me all the days of my life and I will dwell in your house forever.  Your goodness endures continually. 
The mountains may crumble into the sea, and the hills may be removed, but your kindness will never depart from me, and your covenant of peace will never be removed. 
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 390: Love

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Love
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but don't have love, I'm just making noise. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but don't have love, I'm nothing. 
Love is patient and kind. It isn't envious of others. It isn't proud and doesn't toot it's own horn. Love honors others and treats them with respect. It isn't self-seeking. Love doesn't have a short fuse and it doesn't hold a grudge. Love doesn't delight in evil, but it rejoices in truth. Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. 
Let me live my life in such a way, Father, that I am in debt to no man except the continuing debt to love others. For through love, the law is fulfilled. Jesus said that the most important commandment was to love you, Father, with all of my heart and with all of my soul and with all of my mind and all of my strength. And the second is to love my neighbor as myself. There is no greater commandment than these two. All the law and the prophets are fulfilled in these commands. Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law. 
Help me to live a life worthy of the calling I have received. Make me humble and gentle; patiently bearing with my brothers and sisters in love. I make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. 
I love my enemies and pray for those who persecute me, for I am your child. You cause the sun to rise on the evil and the good, and send rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. So I strive always for perfection, Father, as you are perfect. 
I do not love with words or speech only but with actions and in truth. 
Father, your love is better than life. My lips will glorify you always. 
Love covers over all wrongs. So, above all, I love others deeply, because that love will cover a multitude of sins. 
I remain in your love, and I keep your commands. I love my brothers and sisters just as you have loved me. I love at all times, not just when it's convenient and pleasant, but even in times of adversity. 
Everything I do, I do in love. My love is sincere. I hate what is evil and cling to what is good. I am devoted to my brothers and sisters in love and honor others above myself.  
I do not let love or faithfulness leave me. I bind them around my neck, and write them on the tablet of my heart. And I win favor and a good name in your sight and in the sight of men. 
Love is one of the fruits of the Spirit. If I abide in you and you in me, Love is the natural result. Love comes from you, Father. I love because I know you, I have been born of you. You are love. 
You showed your faithful love for me by sending your one and only Son, Jesus, into the world that I might live through him. You sent your Son to die in my place so that I could believe in him and have eternal life. Jesus died for me even though I was a sinner. He took the penalty I deserved so that I could live. 
This is how I know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for me. And so I ought to be willing to lay down my life for my brothers and sisters. 
What great love you have lavished on me -- you even call me your child, and that is what I am! 
I am more than a conqueror through Christ who loved me. I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate me from your love that is in Christ Jesus my Lord. 
You are the Lord my God. You are the faithful God. You keep your covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love you and keep your commands. 
Because of your great love for me, and because of your unfailing mercy, you made me alive with Christ even when I was dead in transgressions-it is by your grace that I have been saved. 
You are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness. You love me with an everlasting love. You drew me in with unfailing kindness. Your love has been poured out into my heart through your gift of the Holy Spirit. 
My lips will forever glorify you, for your love is better than life. 
So be it. 
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 389: Wisdom

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Wisdom
Father, you give wisdom. From your mouth come knowledge and understanding.
I am very careful how I live -- not as the unwise, but with wisdom, making most of every opportunity as you lead me. You have promised that if I lack wisdom in any area, all I have to do is ask you. You give generously to all without finding fault, and you give me wisdom when I ask. The wisdom that comes from you is pure. It is peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit. It is impartial and sincere.
How much better it is to get wisdom than gold; to get insight rather than silver.
I am wise in the way I act toward others, and I make the most of every opportunity. My conversation is always full of grace, seasoned with salt, and I always know how to answer everyone, because you give me the words to say.
I avoid strife at all costs, beause I know where strife is, there is pride. I am open to godly advice from others, and welcome the wisdom they share with me. I listen more than I speak, for I recognize that even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.
I get wisdom and love life. I cherish understanding, and it makes me prosper.
I do not deceive myself by thinking I am wise by the standards of this age. I am happy to become a fool in the eyes of the world so that I may become wise by your standards, Father. I show wisdom and understanding by my good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.
I study your words, Father, and put them into practice in my life, building a strong foundation like a wise man who builds his house on a rock.
Wisdom instructs me to fear and reverence you, Father. I humble myself to your word and I know that humility comes before honor. Your thoughts are not the way I naturally think. And your ways are not the way I would naturally act. So I exchange my human wisdom for your wisdom, Father. You have given me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that I may know you better.
I thank and praise you, Father. You have given me wisdom and power, you make known to me what I ask of you. You are the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. You do not grow tired or weary and your understanding is more than I can fathom.
Everything comes from you. Your plan is wonderful and your wisdom is magnificent.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 388: Joy

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Joy
I rejoice in you always, Father. You fill me with all joy and peace in believing, and by the power of the Holy Spirit, I abound in hope.
Joy is one of the fruits of the Spirit. I don't have to try to be happy or filled with joy. I only need to abide in you and keep your word in my heart, and joy comes automatically. 
If I have need of anything, all I have to do is ask you, Father, in the name of Jesus, and I receive whatever I have need of so that my joy may be full.
You lead me on the path of life, Father, so that I can walk with you in it. In your presence there is fullness of joy and at your right hand are pleasures forevermore. That's what it's like to live in your kingdom. It isn't a matter of rules and regulations, but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Although I did not see Jesus while he walked the earth, I love him. And even though I can't see him physically now, I believe in him and I rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory. He has done great things for me. 
Your joy, is my strength. Even when the cares of the world come against my heart, you console me and cheer my soul with your faithful love.
You turned my mourning into dancing; and you exchanged my funeral garb and clothed me with gladness. My heart is glad in you, because I trust in your holy name.
When I found your words, Father, I devourced them. And your words became a joy to me and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, I am a Christ-like one. 
I set you always before me, and because you are at my right hand, I cannot be shaken. So, my heart is glad, I am safe and secure in you, and my whole being rejoices.
Splendor and majesty go before you, and strength and joy surround you. You are mighty to save. You rejoice over me with gladness and you quiet my fears by your love. 
I keep your commandments and I abide in your love. Your joy is in me and my joy is full. And my spirit rejoices in my God and my Savior. My lips shout for joy, and I sing praises to you, my soul also, which you have redeemed.
Everlasting joy is on my heat. In you I find gladness and joy, and sorrow and sighing had to flee.
I greatly rejoice in you, Father, for you have clothed me with the garments of salvation; you covered me with your robe of righteousness. I rejoice in you through my Lord Jesus Christ, through him I received reconciliation. He brought me back to right standing with you. You have restored to me the joy of your salvation, and you uphold me with a willing spirit.
You bless me with a long and healthy life and I rejoice and am glad in the gift of each day.
I take refuge in you and rejoice. I sing for joy and you spread your protection over me. I clap my hands and shout to you with loud songs of joy.
I rejoice always and pray without ceasing, giving thanks no matter what the circumstances. My heart rejoices in you and no one can steal my joy from me.
There were times in my life when I sowed in tears, but now I reap with shouts of joy, for you have blessed me.
So be it. 
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 387: Hope

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Hope
I am blessed because I trust in you. All of my hope is in you, Father.
You have great plans for me; plans for good and not for evil, plans for a future and a hope.
So I am strong, courageous and unafraid, because you go with me. You will not leave me or forsake me. 
My heart takes courage as I wait on you, Father. For what do I wait? My hope is in you. You are my hope, my trust. And you have been from my youth. I will hope continually and praise you yet more and more.
You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.
My hope is not deferred, because it is secure in you. My fulfilled desires are like a tree of life. I look forward with great expectation to the future, my hope will not be cut off.
I seek your wisdom in scriptures, written for my instruction. Through endurance and through the encouragement of your word, I have hope. In hope I rejoice. I am patient in my trials and constant in my prayers to you, Father. 
I hear your word, and through it comes faith. Faith is the assurance, the title deed of the things that I hope for. It is the conviction of things not seen. Your word is all the proof I need.
So in faith, I wait for you, and you renew my strength. I mount up with wings like an eagle, I run and I do not grow weary. I walk and I do not faint.
It is through my hope in you, that I was saved. Even when things may not look like it, I still hope. Hope that is seen isn't hope. I don't hope for what I can already see, but for what I do not yet see in the physical realm, and I wait for it with patience.
Blessed are you, Father of my Lord Jesus Christ. According to your great mercy, you caused me to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.
I rejoice in hope of your glory. More than that, I rejoice even in my trials, because I know that that produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope will not put me to shame, because your love has been poured into my heart through Holy Spirit who you have given me. 
You chose to make know to me how great are the riches of your glory, the mystery of Christ in me, the hope of glory.
I am not moved or shaken by bad news, my heart is firm, trusting in you. Your report is the one I choose to believe.
I do not stop giving thanks. You have given me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so that I may know you better. The eyes of my heart have been enlightened so that I may know the hope to which you have called me, the riches of your glorious inheritance, and your incomparably great power and mighty strength for me because I believe.
I will bless you at all times; your praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul makes its boast in you alone. I magnify you and exalt your name. I sought you and you answered me and delivered me from all my fears. I look to you and I am radiant, my face will never be ashamed. You saved me out of all my troubles. Your angles encamp around me. I have tasted and seen that you are good. And I am blessed because I take refuge in you. I place my hope in you, and I lack no good thing.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 386: Patience

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Patience
I rejoice in hope and am patient even in the middle of my trials, praying continuously to you, Father. 
You have shown me that love is patient and kind and unselfish and not easily provoked. I rejoice not only in the hope of your glory, but also in the middle of difficulties, because I know that staying joyful even in the tough times works patience, and experience and hope.
So I rest in you, Father, and I wait patiently for you. I do not compare my circumstances to those of other people. I know that you are working for my good -- even when I can't see it. You lead me in the way I should go, and I can only get there one step at a time. 
I am saved by hope. And I don't hope for what I can see, but for what I can't see. Hope and faith aren't required for what is visible. So I am patient and steadfast in faith for what I can't yet see with my physical eyes.I do not become weary in doing good. I know that in due season I will reap, if I don't quit.
Even though the beginning of the journey may be difficult, I know that the end will be glorious. And being patient in spirit is better than being proud in spirit. 
As I wait upon you, you renew my strength. I mount up with wings as eagles. I run and don't get weary. I walk and don't faint.
Patience is one of the fruits of the Spirit. I don't have to work to produce it. That's not how I was created. I just need to abide in you, and patience will spring forth as a natural result. 
I establish in my heart to be patient in all things. I wait on you, and I am of good courage. You strengthen my heart. All I have to do is wait.
You are the God of patience and consolution, and you grant me to be likeminded toward my brothers and sisters in Christ Jesus. It's not my battle. You fight for me. All I have to do is hold my peace.
Through you, I have obtained mercy. Jesus showed all patience. He was the supreme example; a pattern for me as I believe in him.
You are good to me when I wait for you and when I seek you. I hope and quietly wait for the manifestation of your salvation in all areas of my life. I am not sloppy or lazy, but I follow those who have gone before me, who through faith and patience inherited the promises. I do your will, and have patience that I also might receive the promise.
You have a vision for my life, Father, and it will work out in its appointed time. Even though it may look like it tarries, I will wait for it because I know it will surely come and not tarry.
I am good ground for the seed of your word, Father. I have an honest and good heart. I hear your word, I keep it and I bring forth fruit with patience, recognizing that your kingdom works on the principle of seed, time and harvest.
So, I lay aside every weight, and anything that could easily slow me down, and I run with patience the race you have set before me. I know that holding fast to my faith, works patience. And I let patience have her perfect work, so that I may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
What is written in your word, was written for my learning, so that through patience and comfort of the scriptures, I might have hope. 
I wait for you, Father. My soul waits patiently, and in your word I place all my hope.
So be it. 
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 385: Courage

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Courage
Father, you have commanded me to be strong and courageous. I will not tremble or be dismayed, for you are with me wherever I go. You will never fail me or forsake me. You are faithful.
I wait for you. I am strong and my heart takes courage. I do not rush headlong after my own pursuits, but wait on you, Father; remaining ever watchful and alert, standing firm in the faith. I am strong and my heart is courageous because I place my hope in you alone.
I am careful to listen to your Word and obey you, Father. I do not turn from the right or to the left, and I have success wherever I go. 
With strength and courage, I take action. I do not allow fear to hold me back or to discourage me, for you are with me. You will not fail or forsake me, but you stand by me and help me to accomplish the work you have purposed for me to do. So I do not lose courage. I know there is reward for my work and I face my responsibilities head on with action. I take courage in my work, for you are with me.
I show myself courageous for the sake of others, not just for myself. No matter what it may look like, I know that you always do what is good in your sight. So, I do not let my heart be anxious, but take courage and fear not. You come with a vengeance against the enemy. You make amends. You have saved me.
I am not afraid. I am at peace. You have strengthened me. You have not given me a spirit of timidity, but of power and love and discipline.
Others observe my confidence -- not due to any special education or training -- and they are amazed. They recognize me as being your child and as one who spends time in your presence.
I can confidently say, you are my helper and I will not be afraid. What could man possibly do to me? I am always of good courage. I know that while I am at home in my earthly body, I am absent from you. So what's the worst that could ever happen? Even if I should lose my earthly life, I know that to be absent from my body is to be at home with you.
I am strong in you, and in the strength of your might. You have girded me with strength for battle; You have subdued the enemy. I keep up my courage no matter what I face, because I believe in your Word, Father, and I know that things will turn out exactly as you have promised.
You make me bold with strength in my soul.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 384: Peace

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Peace
I live in peace, for you are the God of love and peace, and you are with me.
I turned from evil and do good, and I actively seek peace and pursue it. 
I am not anxious about anything. In every situation, I come to you, Father, in prayer and petition with thanksgiving. I present all of my requests to you. And your peace, which transcends all understanding, guards my heart and my mind in Christ Jesus.
I lie down at night and sleep in peace, for you alone make me dwell in safety.
You are the Lord of peace, and you give me peace at all times and in every way.
I do not have to work at peace, it is a fruit of the Spirit, along with love, joy, patience, kindness, goodness and faithfulness. All I have to do is abide in you and have your word abide in me, and the fruit of your Spirit is the natural result.
I let the peace of Christ rule in my heart. I was called to peace. And I express gratitude in every season of my life. 
I have been justified through faith, and through Jesus, I have peace.
I do not allow my mind to be governed by the flesh -- that leads to death. My mind is governed by the Spirit, and I have peace and life more abundant.
Your kingdom isn't about eating and drinking, but about righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. Serving Christ in this way is pleasing to you, Father. So I make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification with my brothers and sisters.
You are not a God of disorder but of peace.
I am your child, a child of the God of peace, so I make it my business to be a peacemaker. 
I make every effort to live in peace with everyone, to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace, to be holy as you are holy.
You take pleasure in me and cause even my enemies to make peace with me. 
Whenever possible, as far as it depends on me, I live at peace with everyone.
I sow in peace and reap a harvest of righteousness.
You keep me in perfect peace because my mind is steadfast on you, and I trust in you alone.
You give me strength and you bless me with peace. 
Jesus is the Prince of Peace, and when he left the earth, he left his peace with me as a gift. Not the way the world gives, which is temporary and based on circumstances, but a perfect peace that is unconditional. So I don't let my heart be troubled, and I am not afraid. 
I know that you have a plan and a future for me as I continue to seek peace.
I listen to what you say, Father. You promise peace to me and I am your faithful servant.
I love your word. When I follow it, I have great peace and nothing can make me stumble.
You establish peace for me; all that I have accomplished you have done for me.
Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, your unfailing love for me will not be shaken nor will your covenant of peace be removed. 
I go out in joy and am led forth in peace. The mountains and hills burst into song before me, and all the trees of the field clap their hands.
Your hope fills me with all joy and peace as I trust in you, and I overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Episode 383: Health & Healing

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Healing
While I don't reject medical treatment, Father, I know that you are the healer. I am healed by your word alone, which heals everything. 
I praise your name. Jesus, the Son of Righteousness rose with healing in his wings. And I go out leaping like a calf from the stall.
Flesh can fail, but you are the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
If affliction comes against me, I know that your Word, your promises give me life. 
You meet all of my needs according to the riches of your glory in Christ Jesus. All means all. You provide for me spiritually, materially and physically. There is nothing lacking.
I give my full attention to your words. I incline my ear to you. I don't let your words depart from my eyes. I keep them in the midst of my heart. They are life to me and health to my flesh.
I worship you, Father. Your blessing is on my food and on my water. You have taken sickness away from me. 
A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand; but the plague will not come near me.
You are my refuge and my dwelling place. No evil shall befall me, nor shall any plague come near my dwelling.
I have nothing to fear because you are with me. I am not shaken, because you are my God. You strengthen me and help me. You uphold me with your righteous right hand.
You bring health and healing to me. You healed me and let me enjoy abundant peace and security.
I prosper and enjoy good health, even as my soul prospers.
You healed me, Father, and I am healed. You saved me, and I am saved. You are the one I praise. 
You restored my health and you healed all of my wounds.
Jesus bore my sins in his body on the cross so that I could die to sin and live for righteousness. By his wounds, I was healed.
You give me strength when I'm weary and you are my power when I am weak.
You sent your word and healed me; you rescued me from the grave. I give thanks to you, Father, for your unfailing love and your wonderful deeds.
Jesus wounded for my transgressions, he was bruised for my iniquities; The chastisement for my peace was upon him, and by his stripes, I am healed.
I listen carefully to you and I do what is right in your eyes. I pay attention to your commands and, Father, when I miss the mark, your mercy and the righteousness of Jesus makes up the difference. You protect me from disease. You are the Lord who heals me. 
You saw my ways, but covered them with the blood of Jesus. Now when you look at me, all you see is his righteousness. You heal me. You guide me and restore comfort to me. You give me peace. You create praise on my lips. 
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
