10 Morning Prayers to Use Daily and Start Each Day with (part 2)

1. A Morning Prayer for Courage
   Lord, grant me tenacious winsome courage as I
   go through this day. When I am tempted to give
   up, help me to keep going. Grant me a cheerful
   spirit when things don’t go my way. And give me
   the courage to do whatever needs to be done. In
   Jesus’ name, Amen.

“For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a
spirit of power, of love and self-discipline.” 2
Timothy 1:7

2. Prayer to Seek God Each Day
Father, Praise You for the sky and sun, for both
remind us of a new day’s challenge and chance
to chase You. Thank You for reminding us life is
not always easy, but that we don’t have to carry
the hard into each new day. Forgive us for
dwelling on the past and for holding onto
grudges. Bless our hearts to be held back by
nothing as we seek You each day. In Jesus’
Name, Amen. – Meg Bucher

3. A Daily Prayer of Rejoice
Father, thank you for intervening in my life and
allowing me to have a personal relationship with
you. Thank you for your love for me today and
forever. Thank you for the blessings you’ve
given me and my family. Help us use those
blessings to bless others. May I live a life of true
joy as I see you at work around me today! In
Jesus’ name. Amen. – Ron Moore

4. For Guidance from the Holy Spirit
Lord, I pray you would move the Spirit more
boldly in my life. I know that any sin can grieve
and diminish the voice of the Spirit, and I pray
against the temptation to sin. Help me crave your
presence more than I crave sin. Help me grow in
the fruit of the Spirit and so walk closer with
Yourself. I pray for guidance from your Spirit- let
your will and promises always be a meditation of
my heart. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

5. For God’s Grace Daily
Lord, thank you for your abundant, abounding
grace. Thank you that we don’t have to earn a
drop of the mighty river of grace that flows freely
for us today. Thank you for the unexpected,
unmerited favor you’ve showered on my life.
Help me put myself in the path of your love and
grace. Help me not neglect the disciplines I need
to meet with you regularly and to drink from the
water of life. Thank you for your rich love. Amen.

6. A Prayer to Love the Life You Have
God, help me love the life I live right now. Show
me the good things I often overlook and help me
be content with what I have. Forgive me when I
compare myself to others, forgive me for longing
for things outside of you and your kingdom.
Thank you for loving me right where I am, right
as I am. Help me keep my eyes on you. In Jesus’
Name, Amen.

7. Prayer Against Distractions Today
As I start this day, help me remember that I
belong to you, and my desire is to act
accordingly. Keep my feet from stumbling and
my mind from wandering into distractions that
could steal precious time and energy from the
most important things you have designed for me.
I’m proud to be your child, Lord. And I’m so
grateful that you died for me—rising again on
your own new morning—so that every day could
be filled with the wonder of your love, the
freedom of your Spirit, and the joy of knowing
you.

8. A Prayer for a Heavy Heart
Father, my heart is heavy. I feel like I have to
carry the burden alone. Words like overwhelmed,
distraught, exhausted seem to describe where I
am. I am not sure how to let you carry my heavy
load, so please show me how. Take it from me.
Let me rest and be refreshed so that my heart
won’t be so heavy in the morning. In Jesus’
name. Amen.

9. To Focus on God’s Voice
Father, I need to hear from You. Today, I make
the commitment to start having a daily quiet
time. I will listen for Your voice above all of the
other voices in my life. Lord, teach me how to
center my life on You and help me obey what I
hear You say. In Jesus’ name, amen.

10. Rely on God Today
Lord, we ask today for more of Your Holy Spirit
in our lives. Lord, it can be easy for us to
become consumed with the fears that surround
us in life, but we know that just as Your eye is
indeed on the sparrow, so also do You care for
and see us.
Teach us today to become more reliant on You.
Bring us into a greater discernment of how You
operate, so that we may come into a deeper
understanding that all we see with natural eyes is
not all that is. Today we ask for eyes to see Your
hand in all matters, and hearts open to Your
work. Amen.

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in
everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
present your requests to God. And the peace of God
which transcends all understanding, will guard your
hearts and your mind in Christ Jesus.” Philippians
4:6-7
