Today's Prayer Meditation is on Joshua 23
Father, through the years, I have seen you work miracles in my life. You have gone ahead of me and fought my battles. You are the one True God. You drive out the enemy before me. You have given me a rich inheritance through Jesus, just as you promised.
I am firm and unswerving. In you, I am very strong. I obey your word, Father. I do not turn aside to the right or to the left. I do not associate with those who do not know you other than to minister to them and to share with them the good news of the gospel. I do not even mention the names of other gods, much less swear by them. I do not bow down or serve anyone or anything but you. I cling tightly to you, Father.
No one can defeat me, because you are with me. You fight for me just as you promised.
I love you with all of my heart, with all of my mind and with all of my soul.
Not one of your good promises has failed. Every single one has been fulfilled. All of the good things you promised have come to pass.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 33
Father, you love your people. You hold your holy ones in your hands. I follow in your steps and accept your teaching. I am your special possession. You are my King.
I will live and not die. You give me strength to defend my cause and you fight my battles for me.
I obey your word and treasure your covenant. I am more loyal to you than I am to my own parents. You accept all the work of my hands.
I am loved by you, and I live in safety beside you. You surround me continuously and preserve me from every harm.
My land is blessed by you with the precious gift of dew from the heavens and water from beneath the earth, with the rich fruit that grows in the sun, and the rich harvest produced each month; with the finest crops of the ancient mountains, and the abundance from the everlasting hills; with the best gifts of the earth and its bounty, and with your favor.
I prosper in my travels, and I prosper at home. I benefit from the riches of the earth and from its hidden treasures.
You have blessed me and enlarged my territory.
I am rich in favor and full of your blessings. I am esteemed by others, and secure all of my days.
There is no one like you, Father. You ride across the heavens to help me, across the skies in majestic splendor.
You are my refuge, and your everlasting arms are under me.
You drive out the enemy before me. I will live in safety and prosperity in an abundant land where the heavens drop down dew.
How blessed I am. I was saved by you, Father. You are my protecting shield and my triumphant sword. The enemy cringes before me.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 31 and 32
Father, I am strong and courageous, because you go before me. I am not afraid and do not panic. You will never fail me or abandon me.
I will not fear or be discouraged, for you are with me.
You have brought me into the land of your promises. You have made me prosperous. You take care of my every need.
Your teaching falls on me like rain; and settles on me like the dew. Your words fall like rain on tender grass, like gentle showers on young plants.
I proclaim your name, Father. How glorious you are! You are the Rock. Your deeds are perfect. Everything you do is just and fair. You are a faithful God who does no wrong. You are just and upright.
You are the one who created me. You made me and established me. I belong to you. I am your special possession. You surround me with your favor and watch over me. You guard me as you would guard your own eyes. Like an eagle that rouses her chicks and hovers over her young, you spread your wings to take me up and carry me safely on your pinions.
You alone are my guide. I follow no one else. You nourish me with honey from the rock and olive oil from the stony ground. You feed me yogurt from the herd and milk from the flock, together with the fat of lambs.
I will never abandon you, or make light of the Rock of my salvation. I will not neglect the Rock who fathered me, or forget the God who gave me birth.
You are the I Am. There is no other god but you. You give life and healing.
The heavens rejoice, and all of your angels worship you.
Your instructions are not empty words; they are my very life. By obeying them, I enjoy a long, healthy and prosperous life.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Monday Oct 03, 2022
Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 29 and 30.
I have seen with my own eyes your great strength, the miraculous signs, and the amazing wonders. You have given me a mind that understands, eyes that see, and ears that hear. You have provided for me in even the toughest times, so I would know that you are my God and the source of my supply.
I obey your word, Father, and you prosper me in everything I do. Your covenant was not made just for the Children of Israel, but for future generations. It was made for me.
I do not think I am safe when I follow the desires of my own stubborn heart. I know that there are consequences for my actions. And choosing to ignore your instructions is choosing to place myself under the curses.
I take your instructions to heart. I follow your Word with all my heart and all my soul. You have restored what the enemy took. You had mercy on me and brought me back into relationship with you. Even if I were banished to the ends of the earth, you would bring me back again. You have made me even more prosperous than my ancestors.
Father, you changed my heart and you will change the hearts of my descendants so we love you with all of our hearts and souls and so we may live.
You make me successful in everything you do. You increase my descendants, and you cause my business to produce abundant harvests. You delight in being good to me. I obey your voice and keep your Word, I have turned to you with all my heart and soul, and you delight in me.
Your requirements are not too difficult for me, and they are not beyond my reach. It is not kept in heaven, so distant that I must ask, ‘Who will go up to heaven and bring it down so I can hear it and obey?’ It is not kept beyond the sea, so far away that I must ask, ‘Who will cross the sea to bring it to me so I can hear it and obey?’ No, it is very close at hand; your Word is on my lips and in my heart so that I can do it.
You have given me a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. You only ask that I love you, that I keep your Word and walk in your ways. And you bless me, Father.
You gave me the choice between life and death, between blessings and curses. I choose life, Father, so that I and my descendants might live. I love you, I obey you, and I commit myself firmly to you. This is the key to living a long, healthy and prosperous life.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Father, I obey your word and keep your commands. You are a God of love, mercy, grace and forgiveness. Obedience to your Word keeps me in the flow of your promises.
I am blessed in the city and blessed in the fields.The fruit of my body is blessed, as is the fruit of my land.

Wherever I go and whatever I do, I am blessed.
When the enemy rises up against me, he attacks from one direction, but you scatter him from me in seven.
You command the blessing upon me in my storehouses and everything I set my hands to is blessed. You bless everything I do. You bless me where I am planted.
I obey your Word and walk in your ways, and you have established me as holy. People see that I am claimed by you.
You give me prosperity and make me abundant with goods, in the fruit of my body, in the fruit of my ground, and in all of my undertakings.
You open your good treasure to me, raining your favor down on my life. You bless all the work that I do.
I am so abundant, that I lend to others, and never need to borrow. You have made me the head and not the tail. I am always on top and never at the bottom.
All of these blessings are mine. I do not turn from your words to the right hand or to the left. I rely on no one and no thing but you, Father.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 11
I love you, Father, and I obey your word. I have seen your greatness and your strong hand and powerful arm. I have seen miraculous signs and wonders that you have performed in my life and in the lives of others.
You care for me. You lead me through the difficulties in life. I will be careful to obey your word so I have the strength to live in your promises. You watch over me in every season.
I love you and serve you with all my heart and soul, and you send rains in their proper seasons -- the early rains and the latter rains -- so I enjoy abundant harvests from all of my labor. You provide for me abundantly, and I am satisfied. I have all I want and need.
I guard my heart and do not let it be deceived or turn away from you. I know that you alone are my source. There is no other god before you.
I commit myself wholeheartedly to your words. I keep them in front of me at all times. I meditate on them. They are posted in writing throughout my house. I teach these things to my descendants. I talk about your Word when we sit together in my home and when we walk together down the road. Your word is the last thing I talk about before going to bed and the first thing I talk about the next morning.
As long as the sky remains above the earth, I and my descendants will be blessed with a long life.
I show my love to you by walking in your ways and holding tightly to you. I am intentional about learning and remembering your ways. I live as you want me to live and I devote myself to you. No enemy can stand against me, because you are with me.
There are only two choices. I can live a blessed life, or I can live under the curses. So I obey you and enjoy all of the blessings you pour out on me. You delight to reward obedience. And you are entitled to my unswerving loyalty and devotion.
I choose life, Father. I choose to live in a state of your blessing and favor.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy Chapters 9 and 10
Father, you were the one who went ahead of me like a devouring fire to destroy the enemy. You conquered him and you redeemed me. You didn't do this because I am such a good person, or because I have such integrity. You did it to drive out wickedness and to fulfill your covenant.
You redeemed me by your mighty power and your strong hand. You overlooked my stubbornness and sin, and remembered your covenant promise. You called me your own, your special possession.
Your only requirement for me is that I fear you with awe and reverence, and that I live in a way that pleases you. Your desire is for me to love you and serve you with all my heart and soul, and to always obey your commands and decrees. Your commands are for my own good. By following them, I will live in your blessings and favor.
The highest heavens, the earth, and everything in it all belong to you, Father. Yet you chose me as the object of your love.
You are the God of gods and Lord of lords. You are the great God, the mighty and awesome God. You show no partiality and cannot be bribed. You ensure that orphans and widows receive justice. You show love to foreigners and give them food and clothing and expect me to do the same.
I fear you and worship you and I cling to you, Father. You alone are my God, the only one who is worthy of my praise. You do mighty miracles. You do great and amazing things for me.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's prayer meditation is on Deuteronomy 6 through 8
I will worship and reverence you as long as I live. I will obey your commands and do what you instruct me to do, and I will enjoy a long life and all will go well with me.
You are Lord alone. I love you with all my heart, with all my soul and with all my strength. I commit myself wholeheartedly to following your Word. I talk about your Word with my children. I talk about it when I'm at home and when I'm on the road, when I'm going to bed and when I'm getting up. I keep your Word before me at all times. Written reminders of your promises and your faithfulness are posted throughout my house.
You give me harvests I did not plant. My home is richly stocked with goods I didn't produce. I drink from wells I didn't dig.
I diligently obey you and do what is right and good in your sight, and all goes well with me.
When my descendants ask about your Word, I will tell them about all the wonderful things you have done and I will tell them that obedience to you and your Word brings blessing and long life.
You have made me holy. I belong to you. You chose me to be your own special treasure. You chose me, not because of any special qualities I had, but simply because you love me. You rescued me with a strong hand from the enemy. You are indeed God. You are the faithful God who keeps his covenant for a thousand generations and you lavish your unfailing love on those who love you and obey you.
You have blessed me. You protect me from all sickness. I do not fear. Your strong hand and powerful arm will protect me. You are a great and awesome God. No one can stand against me, because you are with me.
I am careful to obey all the commands you have given. I remember how you led me through the difficulties in my life. I know that I don't live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from you, Father.
I walk in your ways and reverence you. You have brought me into your promises. I have plenty and there is nothing lacking. I give you praise, Father, for everything you have done for me.
I do not forget you in my plenty. I am not filled with pride. I remember that you are the one who recued me. You have provided everything I need for life and godliness. I haven't achieved wealth with my own strength and energy. You are the one who has given me the power to be successful in order to fulfill your convenant in the earth.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Deuteronomy 5
Father, you gave Moses the ten commandments, carving them onto stone with your finger. They are rules that every man, woman, and child should live by. I learned these commandments when I was young.
You are the Lord my God who rescued me from the hand of the enemy and released me from my captivity to sin.
I will have no other god but you. Your presence is enough.
I will not allow anything to take first place in my life before you. I will not idolize anyone or anything. My affection is only for you, father. You lavish unfailing love for a thousand generations on those who love you and obey you.
I will not misuse your name, using it lightly or flippantly or as a curse. Your name is sacred.
I will observe the sabbath day of rest. You created the heavens, the earth, and everything in them in six days, and rested on the seventh day, Father. And you ask me to do the same. It is a day to set aside for you and a day to be enjoyed.
I honor my father and my mother. This is the only commandment that came with a promise of blessing; that of a long, full life.
I will not murder.
I will not commit adultery.
I will not steal.
I will not testify falsely against another.
I will not covet the belongings of another.
I honor you, Father, my heart is true. I and my descendants will prosper forever. I will stay on the path that you have set before me to follow. I will not turn to the right or to the left. And I will live a long and prosperous life.
So be it.
Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
