Thoughts on Today's Verse...

Let's join our hearts today; tens of thousands of us joined together! (Over 300,000 share our devotionals daily, so imagine this large chorus rejoicing in praise!) Let's pray for God to make us truly joyful and happy people who live righteously to his glory. We want our joy to be as unshakeable as our God. We want the faith that brings us joy to be infectious and desired by those around us. For those among us in difficulty, we pray for our mighty God to give them reasons to rejoice despite their afflictions. For those who have been bountifully blessed, we pray he opens our eyes to see the glorious riches he has already poured into our lives that can be shared with others.

My Prayer...

Wondrous Father, Lord God Almighty, thank you so much for your generous blessings. O Lord, please make us a more joyful and happy people. For my Christian brothers and sisters in hardship, I pray for their faith, perseverance, blessing, deliverance, and victory. For those of us who have been richly blessed, I pray we have more appreciative and thankful hearts. Thank you for always hearing our prayers. In Jesus' name. Amen.
