Positive Attitude

Lord,

Help me to always look for the best in people. Help me to always be joyful, to never stop praying, and to be thankful in all circumstances. Remind me that You cause all things to work together for the good of those who love You and are called according to your purposes for them.
May I consider it an opportunity for great joy when troubles come my way. Remind me that when my faith is tested, my endurance has a chance to grow. When my endurance is fully developed, I will be perfect and complete, needing nothing. Fill me completely with joy and peace because I trust in You. Let me overflow with confident hope through the power of Your Spirit.

This is the day You have made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13;7 (MSG), 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Romans 8:28, James 1:2-4, Romans 15:13, Psalm 118:24

Joy

But may all who search for you be filled with joy and gladness in you.
May those who love your salvation repeatedly shout, "The LORD is great!"
(‭Psalms‬ ‭40‬:‭16‬ NLT)

Lord,

Help us to play or coach sports for your Glory. May we grow to know You better and better. May we give ourselves completely to you as our act of worship. We thank you for gift of sports.
May we display your character as we participate. Help us to be humble, thinking of others as better than ourselves. Let us not participate to be served, but to serve. Help us to clear our hearts of anything that takes your place.

In Jesus' name,
Amen

Wisdom In Making Decisions

Lord,

I come to you asking for wisdom. Grant me an understanding heart so that I may lead my players well. You grant wisdom and from your mouth come understanding. I am seeking Your will. Show me which path to take. Guide me along the the best path. Advise me and watch over me. Teach me what is good for me and lead me on the path I should follow.

In Jesus's name,

Amen

Scripture: James 1:5, 1 kings 3:9, Proverbs 2:6, proverbs 3:6, psalm 32:8, Isaiah 48:17

Being A Servant

Lord,

Help me to become a leader by being a servant. May I look not at how I can be served, but how I can serve others. Help me to not look for the place of honor, but to fulfill my duties joyfully and skillfully. Help me to exalt you rather than exalting myself. May I always be joyful and thankful for the opportunities I have.

In a Jesus' name,

Amen

Scripture: Mark 10:43-45. Luke 14:10-11, 1 Thessalonians 5:16, 18

Taking Advantage of Each Day

Lord,

Help me to get to work.  May I not be slothful or lazy. May I refrain from excuses and get busy with a purpose. May I run with purpose in every step.
Please forgive my procrastination and help me to move with purpose today, while it is still called today.  Help me to make the most of every opportunity by understanding your will and not acting thoughtlessly.

In Jesus' name,
Amen


Scripture: Hebrews 3:13, 1 Corinthians 9:26, Proverbs 22:13, Ephesians 5:16-17
