Seek and You Will Find

He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high.—Hebrews 1:3 (ESV)
God is present in every part of your life. Sometimes people are too busy to notice—or are expecting an earth-shattering sign, when instead His fingerprints shine in the ordinary and in everyday activities. During dinner with your family, a quiet moment in devotion, even grocery shopping—God is with you, blessing your life.
Heavenly Father, thank You for the many graces You have given me.

Father Mychal’s Prayer

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort.—2 Corinthians 1:3 (NIV)
Today marks the twentieth anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attacks. As we pray for all those affected by the horrific events of that day, let us recite the prayer that Father Mychal Judge, a Franciscan priest and a chaplain for the New York City Fire Department, prayed on a daily basis. Father Judge was killed at the World Trade Center ministering to a fallen firefighter.
Lord, take me where You want me to go. Let me meet who You want me to meet. Tell me what You want me to say, and keep me out of Your way. (Father Mychal’s Prayer)

Invite Miracles into Your Life

So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me.”—John 11:41 (ESV)
It’s been said that the prayers of the faithful open the doors of heaven and invite the miraculous. Throughout the Bible, Jesus shows us that through prayer, the impossible became possible—as in the above verse where Lazarus is raised from the dead. The unthinkable can become reality.
Merciful Lord, I believe in the power of prayer and my deep connection to You.

See God’s Goodness

Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then I will be confident.—Psalm 27:3 (NIV)
In the above verse, when David faced hardship, instead of questioning or doubting God, he praised Him. When you are in a time of doubt, turn to David’s faith as a model—and declare that you will see goodness in the Lord.
Heavenly Father, I trust You. I know You will not reject or forsake me.

Stay on God’s Path

And he said to me, “This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished.”—Zechariah 5:3 (NIV)
Strive to lead a life of integrity. Ask God to help you uphold His laws and remove any bad habits that are preventing you from living wholly in His grace. The closer you walk with God, the less likely you are to be tempted to stray off His path.
All-Powerful God, liberate me from temptation. Cleanse my heart!

Wipe the Slate Clean

“Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.”—Luke 23:34 (ESV)
Forgiving others can be difficult and can even test your faith. When you are finding it impossible to let go of past hurts, rely on God’s strength. Ask Him to help heal your broken heart, let go of the weight of the past and forgive.
My Lord and Redeemer, I am ready to wipe the slate clean

Embrace God’s Promise

“Is the seed still in the barn? Even including the vine, the fig tree, the pomegranate and the olive tree, it has not borne fruit. Yet from this day on I will bless you.’ ”—Haggai 2:19 (NASB)
Do you trust God’s promise to bless you even when it seems that there is no hope that circumstances will go your way? This verse calls you to embrace the promise that God will bless you from this day forward. Trust that greatness is upon you.
Lord, may Your Word light my path and Your wisdom and guidance bless me every day of my life.
