Lord Jehovah, The Great I Am:

We bless you and bow humbly before you in thanksgiving and praise, for the sacrifice you made to love us. Thank you for the atoning blood of your only begotten son, Jesus Christ. The Blood of Jesus reaches some of the darkest places. The blood rescues the lost and liberates the captive. Thank you for the Blood. Thank you for your love. In the name of our Redeemer, Jesus Christ, Amen.

Precious Jehovah,

We bless your holy name and lift you higher than any other. You do all things well and for our benefit. Lord, I don’t always understand why certain things happen. I know that the free will given to man plays a large role in the things taking place in this world. Human beings decide each day whether to make a choice that is good and beneficial, or one that has its root in the flesh. I give you permission, Lord, to help me make the best decisions that glorify you and uplift others.

My desire is for my life to be an act of worship. Lord, I am pressing harder than I ever have before, to get to that NEXT LEVEL in you. Help me to see those things I must learn before I can advance to the next level. Mature me, teach me, show me, and lead me in the way I should go. Where is the best place for my footing? Where should I place my hands? I know my door(s) is waiting for me. Prepare me, Lord, for the open doors. In the name of Jesus, I lift this prayer to you. Amen.

Hebrews 10:24-25

New King James Version

²⁴ And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, ²⁵ not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

Precious Lord,

We send worship, love and adoration to you. Thank you for allowing us to hunger and thirst for your presence in church. Our time together was taken for granted. As your Word says, and my heart is ready to hear when they proclaim, “I was glad when they said unto me, let us go into the House of the Lord (Psalm 122:1).” We earnestly are waiting to gather together. Let it be so according to your divine will, in the everlasting name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, Amen.

Psalm 66:1-5

New King James Version

Praise to God for His Awesome Works

To the Chief Musician. A Song. A Psalm.

66 Make a joyful shout to God, all the earth!
² Sing out the honor of His name;
Make His praise glorious.
³ Say to God,
“How awesome are Your works!
Through the greatness of Your power
Your enemies shall submit themselves to You.
⁴ All the earth shall worship You
And sing praises to You;
They shall sing praises to Your name.” Selah

⁵ Come and see the works of God;
He is awesome in His doing toward the sons of men.

Heavenly and Precious Jehovah:

Indeed, what a mighty God you are, Lord. We are joyful and humbled that we have the privilege to serve you with our life and through our daily actions. We thank you, Jehovah, The Great I Am, for everything. Through every tear, we thank you. Through every moment of joy, we thank you. Through every unknown moment, we thank you for leading us, as we seek your face for the way we should go. We bless you, Lord Jehovah. We lift these prayers to you. May you receive them through the love of your Son, and our Redeemer, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Philippians 3:12-16

New King James Version

Pressing Toward the Goal

¹² Not that I have already attained,^[a] or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. ¹³ Brethren, I do not count myself to have ^[b]apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, ¹⁴ I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

¹⁵ Therefore let us, as many as are mature, have this mind; and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal even this to you. ¹⁶ Nevertheless, to the degree that we have already ^[c]attained, let us walk by the same ^[d]rule, let us be of the same mind.

Heavenly Father,

We bless you this morning. Thank you for giving us the strength to be on this side of heaven each morning. I know some days I get so tired, but then I open your word and receive encouragement from those you selected to spread your Word. Father we ask for a saturated outpouring of your Holy Spirit to lift us up out of the low places, in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer, Amen.

Rev. Marcia Davis

I just wanted to say, “Thank You,” for following Sacred Journey Devotionals. I am still amazed that God allows me to be a vessel.

I wanted to let you know of changes that will be coming. Beginning this week, the Devotionals will be posted on Mondays and Fridays.

I would love to hear if they have been a positive spark in your life. I’m assessing if there is still a desire for the  Devotionals each week, based on feedback I receive. I never want to fill emails, text messages or Facebook and Twitter feeds with items that are not wanted. I’m in prayer about how God wants me to go forward, as there is a time and season for everything.

I pray you have a blessed day. May God bless you abundantly beyond anything you could ask or think.
In Jesus name, Amen.

Precious Lord,

We bless you this morning. We thank you for always being a God who hears our cries and our supplications to you. We lift up people all over the world suffering from the effects of the COVID virus. I especially lift up to you the people of India. I can feel their hurt, pain, and sorrow. Father, we cry out on their behalf and ask that you rescue them from their trials. Even though we are of different faiths, you created us all. As a believer in Jesus Christ, I stand in the spiritual gap for my brothers and sisters in India. Clear any unseen forces that may be causing death, destruction and lack and usher in healing and peace, in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord, my Healer, my Comforter and my Redeemer, Amen.

Isaiah 61:1-3

New King James Version

The Good News of Salvation

61 “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,
Because the Lord has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to ^[a]heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
² To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,
And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn,
³ To ^[b]console those who mourn in Zion,
To give them beauty for ashes,
The oil of joy for mourning,
The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;
That they may be called trees of righteousness,
The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.”

Glorious Lord,

We bless you this morning. Father, so much of our country is in turmoil and unrest. Bring peace and rest to the hearts of your creations. Father God, we ask that you send out your heavenly forces to battle for the heart and soul of human beings. Fortify heaven’s holy army to fight the forces of darkness, strife, and confusion. Let us, your servants, remember that we cannot be silent. We do battle on our knees, in our prayer closets, and in our secret places, as we intercede in prayer to you. Hear our prayer, Lord, and remove the scales the enemy has places over the ears, eyes, and hearts of humans. We lift these prayers to you, in the power and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Redeemer. Amen.
