Then God said, ‘Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. They will reign over the fish in the sea, the birds in the sky, the livestock, all the wild animals on the earth, and the small animals that scurry along the ground.’
— Genesis 1:26 NLT

Today's Prayer

Lord, I praise You as Creator of heaven and earth and all life. I praise You for the power in Your spoken word and Your ability to speak things into being. I know You can also speak life into my weak body, my spirit, and my hurting emotions. I pray for Your voice to change my direction, my health, and my future. I submit to Your plans for me, and ask You to speak health and ability into me so I can honor You and accomplish all You created me for. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
