The Day Prayer

This is the day You have made -
I'm excited to get it under way.

Each new day is a gift and a blessing -
Filled with so many positive lessons.

I receive this day with a heart of gratitude -
Asking You to heal my mood and attitude.

I don't know what the day will bring -
But my faith will carry me over everything.

The day ahead is sparkling with promise and possibility -
Your perfect peace will give me calmness and tranquillity.

I ask for good news and positive developments -
Happy events that are Heaven-sent.

Give me the strength to leave yesterday behind -
Claiming today what is spiritually mine.

Grant me the vision to see the bright side -
That I may take the day in carefree stride.

Open my eyes, Lord, to every opportunity -
Boost my immunity and practical ingenuity.

I am Your vessel, I am Your servant -
Trusting You for insight and discernment.

Anoint me with the fresh oil of Thy Spirit -
Whatever the hurdle, empower me to clear it.

Strengthen me to go the extra mile today -
Come what may, help me to smile anyway.

I am a sower, You give me the seed -
So You will provide for my every need.

I believe wonderful things today will happen -
I trust You to supply all that I'm lacking.

The angels are singing for the Son is shining -
So the clouds today will have a silver lining.

It's a new day, Your mercies are renewed -
For this blessing I praise and I thank You.

Amen.
