Morning by Morning, April 28 - "That He Might Make Known His Mighty Power"

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Help me start this day embraced by my Father, centered in Christ, and filled with the Holy Spirit. ...

 

"Yet He saved them for His name's sake, so that He might make known His mighty power. He rebuked the Red Sea, and it became dry; He led them through the deep as through a desert. So He saved them from the hand of the foe, and delivered them from the hand of the enemy. The waters covered their adversaries; not one of them was left. Then they believed His words; they sang His praise" (Psalm 106:8-12).

 

O Lord, make known Your mighty power in my life today. I want to follow where You lead me and believe what You speak to me. I want to sing Your praises -- the praises of the One who saves and heals and delivers, the praises of the One who fights for me for Your name's sake until not one of my adversaries is left.

 

And as I see You display Your power for the glory of Your name, let me not forget what You've done or take for granted who You are (v. 13). Let me not turn back or put You to test (v. 14). Let me never forget that You are my Savior and the Source everything good in my life (v. 21). Let me not be found grumbling with ingratitude or discouraged in discontent despite all the mercy and grace You've poured into my life when I deserved it the least (v. 25). 

 

Rather, let me always remember that You are the God who is faithful and true, steadfast in Your love and gracious in Your mercy, who hears me when I call and never lets me go (v. 45). By the mercies of God, I join with those who've known Your love and seen Your power to save to the uttermost and "give thanks to Your holy name and glory in Your praise" (v. 47). "Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. And let all the people say, 'Amen." Praise the Lord!" (v. 48). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray you experience the mighty power of our God in your life today, giving thanks to His name and glory in His praise, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

 

Friends, please keep us in prayer this weekend as I travel to preach in Indiana at Burket United Methodist Church with my good friend, Pastor Gary Loy and also teach on Emotional Roots of Physical Afflictions. Come join us if you're in the area. God bless you!

Please keep our Rapha God Ministries team in prayer this Sunday Night. We're excited to be invited to provide altar prayer ministry for Matthew West at the Bible Tour Performance in San Antonio at Laurie Auditorium this Sunday Night. Thank you and God bless you!

Morning by Morning, April 27 - Savior and Shepherd

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are my Savior and my Shepherd. Let me hear Your voice and follow the leading of Your Spirit.  ...

 

Savior and Shepherd

Conquering King

My Rock and my Refuge

My Everything

Your name is Mighty

Faithful and True

You fill me with Your Spirit

And make me like You

 

Yes, Lord. Make me more like You today (Romans 8:29). You are "The Word of God," "Faithful and True" (Revelation 19:11). And yet, in all Your sovereignty and majesty -- One with the Father and One with the Holy Spirit -- You desire to be One within me as well (John 17:21). You desire to speak to my spirit as the Good Shepherd of my soul and lead me by my heart as the Lord and Savior of my life (John 10:3). 

 

As You are, so are we to be in this world, by the power of Your grace at work within us, as the children of God (1 John 4:17). "God abides in those who confess that Jesus is the Son of God, and they abide in God" (1 John 4:15). Abide in me today, as You invite me to abide in You (John 15:4). Fill me with Your Spirit and make me like You, my Savior and my Shepherd (Ephesians 5:18). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray you will be filled afresh with the Holy Spirit, embraced in the grace of Your heavenly Father, and follow the voice of Your Savior and Shepherd abiding in you, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Morning by Morning, April 26 - Know the One Who is Able

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. You are One with the Father, One with the Holy Spirit. Be One within me today, as You lead me in the way of life in Christ.  ...

 

"I know the One in whom I have put my trust, and I am sure that He is able to guard until that day what I have entrusted to Him" (2 Timothy 1:12).

 

Lord, I know You and I trust You. The more I know You, the more I trust You. The more I trust You, the more I love You and thank You for all You've done for me and all You've done in me.

 

And though life can be hard and the challenges can be tough, though the battles against our hope and faith can be very real and very intense, we don't lose heart as we keep entrusting our hearts to you. You never promised it wouldn't be hard, but You promised You'd always be with us no matter how hard it gets. 

 

You said, "Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall be burned, and the flame shall not consumer you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior" (Isaiah 43:1-3). You said, "I will never leave you or forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5). You said, "I am with you always, to the end of the age" (Matthew 28:20).

 

I believe You. I trust You and I love You. And by the power of the grace of God, I will "guard the good treasure entrusted to (me), with the help of the Holy Spirit living in (me)" (2 Timothy 1:14). "For I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day" (2 Timothy 1:12 NKJV). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray your heart will not be troubled and your faith and hope will be secure in the One You've come know and trust, who always loves you and is always with you, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Morning by Morning, April 25 - Father Heart of God Healing Father Wounds in the Father's Love

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be high and lifted up, here in my heart and every moment of my day.  ...

 

"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse" (Malachi 4:5-6 RSV).

 

Come, Holy Spirit. Just as John came in the spirit of Elijah to prepare the way of the Lord before the first coming of Christ, would You come and prepare the way of the Lord in our hearts and in our land before the second coming of Christ (Matthew 17:11-13). Return the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to the fathers. "Prepare the way of the Lord" in us, as we "repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near" (Matthew 3:1-3).

 

Heal our father wounds with the Father's love that flows from the Father heart of God. As we forgive our earthly fathers and You give our earthly fathers the grace to forgive us, and just as You forgive us of our failures as earthly fathers who failed to fully reveal the Father heart of God to our children, You are restoring us to right relationship with one another and with our Father in heaven. Let the curse of rebellion and rejection, of dishonor and disrespect, of distance and division, of unforgiveness and misunderstanding be broken. And let the blessing of the Father in the fullness of Your Spirit heal our hearts and heal our land. 

 

How great the Father's love for us, who always looks for us and longs for us to come receive His embrace of forgiveness and love and grace (Luke 15:20). "And because (we) are children, God has sent the Spirit of His Son into our hearts, crying, 'Abba! Father!'" So (we) are no longer a slave but a child, and if a child then also and heir, through God" (Galatians 4:6-7). 

 

Abba! Father! I turn my heart to You today. I embrace Your forgiveness and love and grace, as Your Father love heals my father wounds and heals the father wounds I've inflicted. Lord, let it be so in me and throughout the Body of Christ in our generation "before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes" (Malachi 4:5). Come, Lord Jesus! (Revelation 22:17) In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray the Father's love would fill your heart and heal your wounds, as the Holy Spirit prepares the way of the Lord in you and in our land for the coming of Christ, in Jesus' name. One day the Lord will come again in the clouds, and at the same time, He wants to come right now into our hearts everyday. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Friends, Thank You! for all your prayers for us at our Rapha God Ministries healing conference this weekend -- From Brokenness to Breakthrough. It was wonderful! Saturday night the Lord gave me a message about the Father's heart and He spoke to us through many prophetic voices at the close of our time to affirm His healing love. I pray the same for you! God bless you!

Morning by Morning, April 22 - Outpouring

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. I seek You first, O Lord, my God -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Speak to my heart and guide my thoughts as I seek to entrust my life and this day completely to You.  ...

 

As soon as I begin to pray this morning, I hear in my heart the word "Outpouring."  ...

 

Yes, Lord. I'm listening. What are You speaking?  ...

 

It seems I hear You saying, "I am pouring out My Spirit upon your heart, upon your city, upon your land. I am opening the windows of My heaven and pouring out a great measure of My Spirit. Like a cleansing rain that washes away the impurities and the allergens in the air, I am cleansing the hearts of My people and washing away the impurities of their souls. For all who would open wide their hearts to Me, I am opening wide My heavens to them."  ...

 

Yes, Lord. I want to be one who is opening wide my heart to You. Show me how to do that. Empower me by Your grace to do that.

 

I believe I hear You saying, "You open wide your heart when you seek Me first, when you don't hold back, when you willingly and passionately choose to welcome Me into the beginning and every moment of your day, when you worship Me in spirit and truth."

 

Yes, Lord. "The hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such as these to worship Him. God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit and truth" (John 4:23-24).

 

Worship welcomes Your Spirit. As we pour out our hearts to You, You pour out Your Spirit upon us -- upon our hearts, upon our city, upon our land. And You cleanse us by the washing of the water of Your word (Ephesians 5:26). You fill us with Your Holy Spirit (Ephesians 5:18). "Since we have these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from every defilement of body and of spirit, making holiness perfect in the fear of the Lord" (2 Corinthians 7:1).

 

Come, Holy Spirit. Stir in our spirits to worship our Father, worshiping our Savior, in spirit and truth, letting You cleanse our souls and awaken our hearts with fresh passion to love the Lord our God with all our heart and soul and mind and strength" (Mark 12:30). Father God, in the name of Jesus, would You "open the windows of heaven for (us) and pour down for (us) an overflowing blessing" of Your Presence in every dimension of our lives (Malachi 3:10).

 

In a deeper measure than we've ever experienced in our hearts, in our city, and in our land, would You continue to fulfill the promise of Your Word:  "In the last days it will be, God declares, that I will pour out My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and your daughters will prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream visions. Even upon My slaves, both men and women, in those days I will pour out My Spirit; and they shall prophesy. And I will show portents in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and smoky mist. The sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the coming of the Lord's great and glorious day. Then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved" (Acts 2:17-21 and Joel 2:28-32).

 

Father, I come into agreement in prayer with everyone who calls on the name of the Lord, with everyone who passionately cries out to You to worship You in spirit and truth, with everyone who welcomes You into every moment of their days, with everyone who opens wide their hearts to embrace Your Presence, Your power, Your grace, and Your love. I agree with every prayer for a fresh outpouring of Your Spirit in our hearts and our city and our land (2 Chronicles 7:14). 

 

"O that You would tear open the heavens and come down!" (Isaiah 64:1) O that You would revive us and awaken us, that the kingdom of heaven would rise up from within us! (Ephesians 5:14)  In this mighty outpouring of Your Spirit, may we passionately, persistently pursue our identity and our destiny as the pure and holy and passionate Bride and Body of Christ You've created us to be and longed for us to become! (Ephesians 5:27)  

 

Lord, let it be so -- here on earth -- here in our hearts, in our city, in our land -- as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10). By the power and the grace of God, "the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea!" (Habakkuk 2:14)  In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray for a fresh and mighty outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon your heart, your city, and your land! May the Lord open His heavens over you and rise up by His Holy Spirit within you to be all He created you to be and longs for you to become, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Friends, please pray for an Outpouring upon our city tonight as we begin our Inner Healing Conference in San Antonio!

Morning by Morning, April 21 - Radiant Aroma

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Fill me with Your Spirit and draw me deeply into Your Presence, as I begin my day centered in You.  ...

 

As I wait for the leading of Your Spirit, I hear these words in my heart:  "Radiant Aroma."  ... Lord, what are You speaking to me by these words?  ...

 

The Scriptures come to mind of the offerings made by fire upon the altar of the Lord, burning with the radiance of the fire and releasing a pleasing aroma to God. "And the priest shall burn all on the altar as a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord" (Leviticus 1:9 NKJV).

 

All of the laws and the rituals of the Old Covenant are fulfilled in You, Lord Jesus (Matthew 5:17). You are the Altar; You are the Sacrifice; You are the Fire. You are the Radiance and You are the Aroma. "Walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma" (Ephesians 5:2 NKJV).

 

And now, in Christ, we are to "be imitators of God as dear children" (Ephesians 5:1 NKJV). "But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads in every place the fragrance that comes from knowing Him. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing" (2 Corinthians 2:14-15 NRSV). And now the fire of God, the holy Fire of Your Holy Spirit burns within our hearts to display the radiance of Your glory through our lives (Luke 24:32; Isaiah 61:3). "Christ in (us), the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:27).

 

My Father God, let me be a radiant aroma of Christ today. I offer my life "a living sacrifice" to You (Romans 12:1). As the fire of Your Spirit burns in my heart, let me be radiant with Your glory shining through me and let the aroma of Christ diffuse the atmosphere around me everywhere You send me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray the fire of the Holy Spirit will burn in your heart, that the radiant light of Christ will shine through you, and that you will carry and diffuse the aroma of Christ everywhere you go, as you offer your life and this day to God as a living sacrifice to Him, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Please come join us of our Inner Healing Conference this weekend  -- From Brokenness to Breakthrough! If you're not able to join us, you might consider our dvds from our School of Ministry on the Biblical principles of inner healing, request my book Free to Be Like Jesus or call our ministry office for other resources or to set up your personal prayer ministry appointment:  RaphaGodMinistries.com We offer sessions free, without cost to all who come.

Morning by Morning, April 20 - "In Your Hearts Sanctify Christ as Lord"

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. You're Lord of my life. Come be Lord of the moments of my day.  ...

 

"In your hearts sanctify Christ as Lord" (1 Peter 3:15).

 

Lord, I know You're the One who saves me and sanctifies me. You're the One who forgives me and frees me, who heals me and holds me. You're the One the loves me and leads me, who calls me and commissions me. So how do I "sanctify Christ as Lord" in my heart?  ...

 

It seems I hear You say in my heart:  "You sanctify Me as Lord in your heart to the degree that you choose to trust Me and entrust to Me that measure of control and authority in your life, from your heart."  ...

 

Yes, Lord. Any area of my heart, any area of my life, where I'm in control, I'm not trusting You to be in control. Where I'm being Lord, I'm not trusting You to be Lord. Those are the places of my heart I've not fully committed and surrendered to You alone as Lord of my life.

 

Show me those places, Lord. Search my heart and see if there's anything I'm holding back from You, anything I'm protecting and guarding within myself instead of fully entrusting myself to completely to You, anything in me that's not yet like You. "Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my thoughts. See if there is any wicked way in me, (any resistant, not fully trusting way in me), and lead me in the way everlasting" (Psalm 139:23-24).

 

And as You reveal these things to me, these places in my heart I've not fully surrendered to You, help me trust You more so I can choose to surrender more -- as best as I can and all by grace, more and more every day. Give me the wisdom and the courage, the power and the grace, to sanctify You as Lord in my heart, Lord Jesus Christ. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray you'll allow the Lord to reveal Himself to you in the way you need so you can can trust Him more and entrust more of your heart to Him every day, sanctifying Jesus Christ as Lord in your heart, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend! 

Friends, this is our model of inner healing prayer ministry -- Reveal, Remove, and Replace -- letting the Lord reveal Himself and what we need to let go or surrender to Him, letting Him remove it as He heals us and frees us, then letting Him replace it with a deeper measure of His love, His truth, His Spirit so we can live into the fullness of all He created us to be.

Please come join us of our Inner Healing Conference this weekend  -- From Brokenness to Breakthrough! If you're not able to join us, you might consider our dvds from our School of Ministry on the Biblical principles of inner healing, request my book Free to Be Like Jesus or call our ministry office for other resources or to set up your personal prayer ministry appointment:  RaphaGodMinistries.com We offer sessions free, without cost to all who come.

Morning by Morning, April 19 "Rain Down Righteousness"

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. At the beginning of my day, I want to begin with You -- embraced by the Father, centered in Christ, and filled with the Holy Spirit.  ...

 

"Shower, O heavens, from above, and let the skies rain down righteousness; let the earth open, that salvation may spring up, and let it cause righteousness to spurt up also; I the Lord have created" (Isaiah 45:8).

 

We've had heavy rains for a few days. Rains can be destructive or rains can be a blessing -- and sometimes rains can be both. Rains can flood our lives, but also replenish our land. Sometimes the rains of our physical realm speak of truths taking place in our spiritual realm.

 

Rain down righteousness, O Lord! Cleanse our hearts and our land by the washing of the water of Your Word (Ephesians 5:26). Renew us and replenish us, revive us and awaken us, as You wash away the clutter from our souls (Ephesians 5:14).

 

Come, Holy Spirit. Rain down righteousness in our land -- may we be set right with God, right with each other, and right within ourselves. And let the fullness our salvation spring up in us and in our land. "If My people who are called by My name humble themselves, pray, seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land" (2 Chronicles 7:14). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray the fullness of salvation will spring up in your heart and in our land, as the Lord rains down His righteousness upon you and awakens revival within you, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Morning by Morning, April 18 - "Overflow More and More"

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Help me hear Your heart, as I begin my day in communion with You -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.  ...

 

"And this is my prayer, that your love may overflow more and more with knowledge and full insight to help you to determine what is best, so that in the day of Christ you may be pure and blameless, having produced the harvest of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ for the glory and praise of God" (Philippians 1:9-11).

 

Lord Jesus, make me more like You today. Make me more like You each day. Teach me and empower me to allow Your love and Your life to "overflow more and more" out of me. More, Lord -- more of Your love, more of Your power, more of Your nature, more of Your will -- more of You in me, more of You overflowing out of me. 

 

Set me free from everything in me that is not yet like You (Romans 8:29). Renew my mind (Romans 12:2). Change my heart (Psalm 51:10). Cleanse my soul (1 John 1:9). Together will all who seek to be more like You, help me "grow up in every way" into Christ-likeness, "to maturity, to the full measure of the full stature of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13 and 15). 

 

I know I have far to go. But I also know by the yearning of Your Holy Spirit stirring within my human sprit that I'm on the journey (Galatians 4:19). "And I am certain that God, who began the good work within (me), will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns" (Philippians 1:6 NLT). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray you will be more like Jesus every day, as the Holy Spirit keeps conforming you into the image of Christ, growing you up in spiritual maturity, and allowing the love and life to overflow through you more and more, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!

Morning by Morning, April 15 - Free from Fear in the Grip of God

 

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Your name is the name above every name (Philippians 2:9). Let Your name be above every moment of my day.  ...

 

"But you, Israel, My servant, Jacob, whom I have chosen, the offspring of Abraham, My friend; you whom I took from the ends of the earth, and called from its farthest corners, saying to you, 'You are My servant, I have chosen you and not cast you off;' do not fear, for I am with you, do not be afraid, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My victorious right hand.... For I, the Lord your God, hold your right hand; it is I who say to you, 'Do not fear, I will help you'" (Isaiah 41:8-13).

 

Through Christ, I'm a spiritual descendant of Abraham, with all the blessings of Abraham (Galatians 3:6-9). And through Christ, I'm a child of God, with all the blessings of a child of God -- "for in Christ Jesus (we) are all children of God through faith" (Galatians 3:26).

 

One of Your greatest blessings for the descendants of Abraham, for the children of God is the blessing of freedom from fear. You know the struggles we have and the battles we face. You know the uncertainties and worries we encounter in the unsettledness of our journey as strangers in a foreign land through the challenges of this broken and fallen world. But You constantly remind us, "You are not alone. I am with you. Fear not. Hold on to Me and know that I am always holding on to you."

 

O Lord, take me by Your hand and lead me by my heart. Remind me who I am and help me always remember who You are. You're my Father, and I'm Your child. You've chosen me and called me. You strengthen me and encourage me. And You empower me to overcome every worry and fear in Your perfect love (1 John 4:18). 

 

In the grip of Your hand, I'm free from fear. Your mighty right hand is victorious! And so am I in You. Thank You for this blessing. Thank You for Your words of spirit and life and truth You're speaking into my spirit today (John 6:63). In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

Be encouraged today! In the Love of Jesus, Tommy Hays

I pray you will rest securely in the grip of God, free from fear and filled with His Spirit and perfect love to overcome every worry you may be facing, in Jesus' name. Please pray the same for me. God bless you, my friend!
