Motivation for every morning

Don’t underestimate your mind. What you fill in it at the start of the day has an effect on your day. Think happiness, success, victory and count your blessings.

When you wake up, do it believing that it is going to be a great day. Don’t just slide out but believe that you will be happy and successful.

If it’s been long since you heard someone encourage you, then let me tell you. You are one of a kind person and there are a multitude of talents hidden inside of you. You can accomplish your good dreams. Go ahead and live a happy life.

Let the worries of yesterday fade away. Today is a new day and you’ve been blessed with life. Take hold of motivation this morning and end your day in success.

Good morning is not just merely a word, it is a belief that everything is good. Morning is the start when you SET the mood for the rest of the day.
Set it right!

Fill your heart with thoughts of goodness. Make friends with those who wish to se e you grow and succeed. Think and act like a winner.

Being nice to people, doing good and having a positive attitude is my agenda nowadays. That is the way I set the tone for the entire day.

Try being your best in everything that you do. A positive mindset needs to be set, not towards evening or night but early in the morning after your prayers.

Remember that you are on earth for a reason. You can be a light of hope to millions. Stay encouraged and start conquering your goals.

I am aiming for the highest level of success and I won’t back down until I achieve it. I’m starting early so that I can relish my results by the end of day.

Today I have decided to leave the past baggage behind. I’m going to live a life of happiness, victory and success.

The true value of life

A man went to God and asked, "What's the value of life?"

God gave him one stone and said, "Find out the value of this stone, but don't sell it."

The man took the stone to an Orange Seller and asked him what it's cost would be.
The Orange Seller saw the shiny stone and said, "You can take 12 oranges and give me the stone."
The man apologized and said that the God has asked him not to sell it.

He went ahead and found a vegetable seller. "What could be the value of this stone?" he asked the vegetable seller. The seller saw the shiny stone and said, "Take one sack of potatoes and give me the stone."
The man again apologized and said he can't sell it.

Further ahead, he went into a jewellery shop and asked the value of the stone.
The jeweler saw the stone under a lens and said, "I'll give you 50 thousand dollars for this stone." When the man shook his head, the jeweler said, "Alright, alright, take 200 thousand, but give me the stone."
The man explained that he can't sell the stone. Further ahead, the man saw a precious stone's shop and asked the seller the value of this stone.

When the precious stone's seller saw the big ruby, he lay down a red cloth and put the ruby on it. Then he walked in circles around the ruby and bent down and touched his head in front of the ruby.
"From where did you bring this priceless ruby from?" he asked. "Even if I sell the whole world, and my life, I won't be able to purchase this priceless stone.

Stunned and confused, the man returned to the God and told him what had happened.
"Now tell me what is the value of life, God?

God said, "The answers you got from the Orange Seller, the Vegetable Seller, the Jeweler & the Precious Stone's Seller explain the value of our life... You may be a precious stone, even priceless, but people may value you based on their level of information, their belief in you, their motive behind entertaining you, their ambition, and their risk taking ability. But don't fear, you will surely find someone who will discern your true value."

In the eyes of God you are very very precious. Respect yourself. You are Unique. No one can Replace you!

Prayer for healing

Oh Lord God almighty, thank you for giving me the opportunity to come to you this day. With a humble heart and a contrite spirit I have a petition to make. You are an all knowing God who loves his children and provides when they are in need.

Lord today I need healing for this illness that I am going through. You know how difficult it is for me Lord. Everyday I wake up and hope that this illness will leave me. I yearn to be healthy and whole my God. Please bless me with your healing power and remove this illness out of my system.

Being healthy will let me praise your holy name day In and day out. I yearn to be happily praising your holy name my Lord. I want to come back to your house completely healed of my illness. With your healing power please cleanse me and then I will praise and thank you with all my might all the days of my life.
Please say one our father now. After that proceed to read this Psalm 51:

Psalm 51 Prayer
Have mercy on me, O God, according to your steadfast love; according to your abundant mercy blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.

For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. Against you, you alone, have I sinned, and done what is evil in your sight, so that you are justified in your sentence and blameless when you pass judgment. Indeed, I was born guilty, a sinner when my mother conceived me.

You desire truth in the inward being; therefore teach me wisdom in my secret heart. Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean; wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow. Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones that you have crushed rejoice. Hide your face from my sins, and blot out all my iniquities.

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and put a new and right spirit within me. Do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation, and sustain in me a willing spirit.

If there anyone who has hurt you, please gain strength to forgive them. Let the their trespasses go away along with the grudges that you hold. Hold on to Lords peace and gentleness. He loves you.

Now thank the Lord that he is healing you of the illness that you are experiencing. Thank him with a joyful heart and believe that what you have asked for is already being done for you in Jesus name. Amen.

Prayer for forgiveness

Let us make ourselves humble in heart so that we can reflect on our faults and failings. Today we have come here to the Lord in order to gain forgiveness and mercy for our wrongdoings. The Lord is kind and faithful. He hates the sin but loves the sinner. Though there are 99 good sheep in the sheepfold, he still ventures in search of the one that is getting lost.

His mercies are everlasting and his goodness has no end, the scripture says that his mercies are renewed every morning and his faithfulness is great. On the other hand he is a just and righteous God who does what is right and hates what is evil. He gave us life and made us his children. Therefore, now let us bow down and remember our iniquities and sins.

(Please bow down and remember all of your sins for a minute.)

After you have remembered all your sins, please say one our father.

Now let us remember that in the prayer of Our father that you just prayed, our Lord says, "Forgive us our sins, as we forgive those who sin against us." That means we will be judged according to the way we judge others. Hence, please spend a minute to forgive everyone who has ever hurt you or tried to cause you harm.
Let go of those old grudges and forgive them for what they did or tried to do against you no matter how big or small.

Now that you have forgiven them, let us proceed to say the prayer for forgiveness.

Oh holy and ever living God, I have sinned against you and I am here truly sorry for all my sins. I despise my old ways of life and my transgressions against you which I have committed knowingly or unknowingly. I have forgiven those who have hurt me. With your help and loving kindness, I resolve to turn away from evil ways and receive your merciful grace.

Protect me my Lord from temptations and all evils and keep me by your side so that I may love and serve you all the days of my life. I receive your forgiveness In Jesus name. Amen.
Now thank the Lord for the forgiveness that he bestows upon us all.
