Lord, You are wonderful and I praise You. Thank you for this time to be together. Time spent with You is my favorite part of the day. I'm sorry Lord for my sin. Please forgive me for my sin and help me! Please speak to me today through Your Word. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness! You have relieved me in my distress; have mercy on me, and hear my prayer. How long, O you sons of men will you turn my glory to shame? How long will you love worthlessness and seek falsehood? But know that the Lord has set apart for Himself him who is godly; the Lord will hear when I call to Him. Be angry and do not sin. Meditate within your heart on your bed, and be still. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness, and put your trust in the Lord. There are many who say, who will show us any good? Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us. You have put gladness in my heart, more than in the season that their grain and wine increased. I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. Psalm 4:1~8
This scripture has many interesting things to say about me. It says that I am safe in the Lord. I am set apart for the Lord. I call out to the Lord. I may be angry but I do not sin. I meditate within my heart on my bed. I am still. I offer the sacrifices of righteousness and my trust is in the Lord.
This scripture also has a lot to say about God. First of all, God hears me when I call. he is the God of my righteousness. He relieves me in my distress. he has mercy on me. And, he hears my prayer. He has set me apart for Himself. The Lord lifts up the light of his countenance upon us/me. He puts gladness in my heart.
The truth of scripture affects my attitude and action. I will believe and know that God hears my prayers, when I pray to Him. I will pray to Him about EVERYTHING that concerns me. I will rejoice and be glad that I am set apart for the Lord. Being set apart for Him comforts me. I will enjoy this season of single life in pursuing Him.
Prayer~
Thank you dear Lord for setting me apart for yourself, as your very own. Thank you for letting me dwell in safety dear Lord. Thank you for being my God of righteousness. When I am angry please do not let me sin (especially at work). Dear Lord, Thank you for shining your countenance upon me. I receive all that you have for me. Lord I love you, and I want to live a life that is pleasing to You (please help me). I tell You all my cares, worries and concerns now. Thank you for hearing me and being concerned about my life. I love You Lord. Amen.

God Wants to Help Me
Lord Jesus,
I praise You because you are worthy to be praised! Your name is excellent, and I love you. Thank you dear Lord for this time to be together. I love to spend my time with you. Lord I am sorry for my sin. Please show me what is in between You and I. Lord, as I read your word I pray you would speak to my heart through your word. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
LORD, how they have increased who trouble me! Many are they who rise up against me. Many are they who say of me, "There is no help for him in God". But You, O LORD, are a shield for me. My glory and the One who lifts up my head. I cried to the LORD with my voice. And He heard me from His holy hill. I lay down and slept: I awoke, for the LORD sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people who have set themselves against me all around. Arise O LORD; Save me, O my God! For You have struck all my enemies on the cheekbone; You have broken the teeth of the ungodly. Salvation belongs to the LORD. Your blessing is upon Your people. Psalm 3:1~8 (all)
I really love this psalm! This scripture says alot about me. It says that I have troubles. Many troubles. Many rise up against me. However, I cry out to the Lord with my voice. It says I lay down, sleep and awake. I am not afraid of 10,000 people against me all around. Finally, God's blessing is on me.
I'm impressed with what this scripture says about God. It says that God wants to help me. He wants to help you with all your problems, big or small. The Lord is my shield. He protects me. He is my glory. He lifts my head. I love that He hears me when I cry to Him. He hears our prayers whenever we pray to Him. Also, He sustains me, and gives me good sleep. Something to remember whenever I'm struggling with insomnia. My Lord arises. My God saves me from all my enemies. My God strikes their cheekbones and their teeth; my God is a powerful, protective God!!
In light of these truths found in scripture, I see that some changes in my attitude and action might need to take place. First of all, I will speak the truth. Yes, I have troubles, but God is my shield, glory and lifter of my head! I will focus on God not my problems. God will demolish my enemies. I will continue to put my faith, hope and trust in the Lord.
My Prayer~(you may want to offer this prayer or a similar prayer using your own words to the Lord)~
Lord God,
I don't have to be afraid of my troubles nor enemies. Lord help me focus on God not my problems. Help me continue to put my faith, hope and trust in you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world. John 16:33

A kiss is a sign of intimacy and affection. I love the Son of God, Jesus Christ. I have a deep appreciation for the work He did on the cross. I am extremely grateful He died on the cross to pay for my sin. How wonderful He is!!! God is not angry with me. I will rejoice. I will be happy. I kiss the son (I enter in to his chambers. I enter in to His presence daily). I trust in Jesus.

Lord You Make me Happy!
Let us begin our time with God in a short prayer.
Dear Lord, I praise You because Your Name is Wonderful. Your name is worthy and You are worthy to be praised. Lord, I thank You for this time we have to be together. Can you show me dear Lord if there is any thing in between us, any sin, action or attitude that I need to confess to You dear Lord? I am sorry for that sin Lord and I ask You to cleanse me and to help me. Please speak to me now dear Lord from your Word. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
Blessed is the man who walks not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stands in the path of sinners, nor sits in the seat of the scornful; but his delight is in the law of the LORD, and in His law he meditates day and night. He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper. Psalm 1:1~3
I am blessed~oh so happy! I do not live by the world's advice, rather, I delight in the law of the LORD. I think about the Lord's law constantly, all day and all night. God says that I am like a tree planted by rivers of water and that I bring forth fruit in season, that my leaves do not wither, and that all I do prospers.
I am going to choose to believe God's Word. I am going to trust that He will make the necessary changes in my life that need to be made. God has a law~the law of the LORD. God wants to help prosper the person who fears the LORD and honors him. God wants to give life to the person who follows Him and obeys his Word.
Let us hear God's invitation to us today! He invites us into a deeper relationship with Him! He says to us, "You are precious, and you are chosen. Come into my presence everyday...Come and you will be satisfied with the love I have to lavish on you." Let our hearts say "yes" to God's invitation.
Dear Precious Lord,
Make me a person who loves Your Word. Help me learn what Gods says, thinks and feels more and more. Help me think about and obey my God. I love you precious Jesus. Thank you for caring about the concerns and problems of my life. Please help me with every one of them. I give You my heart afresh and anew today. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen.
