I welcome another new day with you Heavenly Father. Thank you getting me up this morning. Thank you for the stars in the sky while I walk to catch my bus just before the rising of the sun. And thank you for your scripture that gives us a way to see if we love you:
He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. (John 14:21)
Lord, I am here as usual to begin another prayer for another day. I am here on behalf of Lindsey who loves you. Yes, Lindsey, you can tell that you love Jesus if you acknowledge God’s commandments AND actually keep them. You can tell that you love God when you obey his commandments. Lord, I ask that you notice how Lindsey keeps your commandments. Show her how much you love her Lord, for she loves you too. Manifest yourself to her Lord. Reveal yourself to her today. Let her know that you are near to her and that you love her dearly. And we will give you the glory. The glory is all yours Lord. Glory! I pray this in the name and authority of Christ Jesus, King of kings. Amen
NLT:
Those who accept my commandments and obey them are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them. And I will love them and reveal myself to each of them.
