Morning by Morning, August 28, 2025 – “For the King Trusts in the Lord” – Praying for Our Nation and Leaders

 

Morning by Morning, August 28, 2025 – “For the King Trusts in the Lord” – Praying for Our Nation and Leaders Good morning, Lord Jesus. King of Kings and Lord of Lords, rule and reign in my heart and every moment of my day (Revelation 19:16). ... “The king rejoices in Your strength, Lord.     How great is his joy in the victories You give! You have granted him his heart’s desire     and have not withheld the request of his lips. You came to greet him with rich blessings     and placed a crown of pure gold on his head. He asked You for life, and You gave it to him—     length of days, for ever and ever. Through the victories You gave, his glory is great;     You have bestowed on him splendor and majesty. Surely You have granted him unending blessings     and made him glad with the joy of Your Presence.  For the king trusts in the Lord;     through the unfailing love of the Most High     he will not be shaken” (Psalm 21:1-7). Early this morning, I joined prayer warriors from across our nation on the daily prayer call led by Apostle Leon Benjamin from the White House Faith Office and Coalition of Leaders to pray for the governmental leadership and people of our country. What a humbling honor to be invited to join in leading prayer today with my good friend, Karen Young. Lord, hear our prayers. That our leaders would be led by Your Spirit, that we would be “One Nation Under God” for “In God We Trust.” For “Righteousness exalts a nation” (Proverbs 14:34). And we are to pray “for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior” (1 Timothy 2:1-3). As we began, I felt led to pray out and personalize Psalm 21, a Psalm of encouragement written for King David in his leadership of his nation over our President and the leadership of our nation: You are the One who gives strength and joy and victory. You are the One who grants the desires of our leaders’ hearts when their hearts are joined with Yours, with Your will, grounded in Your Word and led by Your Spirit. You are the One who grants the crown of leadership that brings rich blessings, when our leaders lay their crowns down at Your feet as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. You are the One who grants life, rebukes death and violence, and establishes long life and victory to fulfill Your purposes for Your leaders, Your people and the nation whose God is the Lord. You are the One who grants unending blessings, cancelling the curses and plans of the enemies of righteousness to make our leaders and our people glad with joy of Your Presence. And You are the One who gives grace to trust in You, to seek You, to honor You, to obey You, so that through Your unfailing love, our leaders and our nation “will not be shaken” but will stand firm in the strength You supply and fulfill the purpose and destiny of Your heart for our land and for our people. “How great is (our) joy in the victories You give” (Psalm 21:1), as You advance Your Kingdom, hear from Heaven and heal our land, through a people and a nation who humble themselves to pray (2 Chronicles 7:14). May our leaders and our people humble ourselves in Your sight, that You may lift us up in Your power for Your purposes to fulfill our calling of Your vision in our generation (James 4:10). “Righteousness exalts a nation” and You alone are our Righteousness. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays My friend, may you be stirred in your spirit to pray for your leadership and the people of your nation, that the Kingdom of God may advance in the heart of your people and your country, in Jesus' name. Please pray for us in America as well. God bless you, my friend! And you have a great day!

Morning by Morning, August 27, 2025 – “With all Boldness and Without Hindrance!”

 

Morning by Morning, August 27, 2025 – “With all Boldness and Without Hindrance!” Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be first in my heart in these first moments of my morning, here in the communion of prayer with You—Father, Son and Holy Spirit of God. ... “He proclaimed the kingdom of God and taught about the Lord Jesus Christ—with all boldness and without hindrance!” (Acts 28:31) These are the last Words written of the Apostle Paul in the final mention of him and his life in the Bible. From the day Saul became Paul, from the day the scales were removed from his eyes and his heart, Paul never quit proclaiming the Kingdom of God, never quit talking about Jesus. Through all he said and did, through all he experienced and suffered and overcame, he was faithful every day and faithful to the end. What seeds of life he sowed everywhere You sent him. What legacy of life he left behind. All empowered by Your grace. All led by Your Spirit. All for the glory of God in the name of Jesus. Lord, I’m expecting a long life, full of many opportunities to be Your “ambassador” (2 Corinthians 5:20) and “witness” (Acts 1:8), to be Your “servant” (Mark 9:35) and “follower” (Matthew 16:24), to be Your carrier of Your “Spirit” (Romans 8:9) and “friend” (John 15:15). Like Paul’s example and inspiration, may I be empowered to never stop proclaiming the Kingdom of God and talking about Jesus “with all boldness and without hinderance!” (Acts 28:31). Like Paul’s spirit, may I be given the grace to be able to proclaim in truth, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me! (Galatians 2:20) In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays Tommy, may you be proclaiming the Kingdom of God and talking about Jesus with boldness and without hindrance in every setting the Holy Spirit gives you with all your heart throughout all your life, in Jesus' name. God bless you, my friend! And you have a great day!

Morning by Morning, August 26, 2025 – Ever-Available to “Fearlessly” Share the Hope of Jesus

 

Morning by Morning, August 26, 2025 – Ever-Available to “Fearlessly” Share the Hope of Jesus Good morning, Lord Jesus. Be at the center of my heart and in the middle of every moment of my day. ... “Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel” (Ephesians 6:19). If the Apostle Paul needed prayer and asked for prayer so he could fearlessly proclaim the Gospel to everyone and in every place You sent him, so should we. And I thank You, Lord, for everyone who prays for us in our ministry of proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom of God, ministering in the authority of Your name and the power of the Holy Spirit and the love of our Father. What strikes me this morning, as I read these Words of Your Scripture is the word “fearlessly.” ... Set me free from any measure of intimidation or hesitation. Increase an anointing of boldness from Your Holy Spirit into my human spirit. Whether I’m in another nation or at my grocery store, whether I’m speaking to hundreds or speaking to one, let me let You speak Your words of spirit and life through me. May I be ever-available to You. May I be ever-available to fearlessly share the hope of Jesus. In this single month of August, You’ve sent me to proclaim Your Gospel and minister the healing love of God on two different continents of Africa and South America. And this morning I’m waking up back in my own continent of North America. But let the passion to share Your heart with the hearts of people continue to burn in me, whether at home or abroad, wherever I am. Let sharing Your hope, Your love be more than an event or a trip, but be my everyday lifestyle. And I pray You would increase this anointing from Your Spirit in the Body of Christ in the earth. To fearlessly, boldly share the hope that is within us (1 Peter 3:15). You are our Hope. You are the Hope of the world. Let us not keep it to ourselves, but be ready to be Your “ambassadors” to everyone and in every place You position us with the Good News of Your Gospel (2 Corinthians 5:20). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays My friend, may you be ever-available to share the hope that is within you to everyone in every place the Lord positions you with the message of His hope and love in the ways His Holy Spirit leads, in Jesus' name. God bless you, my friend! And you have a great day!

Morning by Morning, August 15, 2025 - “Go into All the World”

 

Morning by Morning, August 15, 2025 - “Go into All the World” Good morning, Lord Jesus. I look to You and listen for Your leading (John 10:27). ... “And then (Jesus) told them, ‘Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone” (Mark 16:15 NLT). Here in the same month of August, I’ve barely come home from Kenya and now we’re packing up to go to Colombia. That same stirring in my spirit that propelled me into ministry to the people of Kenya is the same stirring in my spirit now for the people of Colombia: “Time is short. Doors are open. Go into all the world.” Yes, Lord. Thank You for supernatural grace, energy and stamina, provision and relationships, and open doors for hungry hearts to hear the Good News of the love of God through Jesus Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit. This ministry You’ve entrusted to me for nearly thirty years now is to those both at home and abroad. These last few years, it seems You’ve especially emphasized the “abroad” part, the “Go into all the world” part. Thank You for everyone who prays for us, who provides for us, who encourages us to be a part and do our part of advancing the Kingdom of God in the hearts of people and in the earth. And whether at home or abroad, it does seem there is a deep sense of urgency to share the hope that is within us. Hope for salvation of souls for eternal life. And hope for today for the peace, love, and joy You have for all who would allow Your Holy Spirit to move and heal and free all who would receive to be set free from all that would hold them back from all You created them to be. So may we carry this Good News of Yours, this hope of Yours, in our hearts and release it in the power of Your Spirit “to everyone” and every place You send us. “Now may the God of hope fill (us) with all joy and peace in believing, that (we) may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit” (Romans 15:13). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. Be encouraged today. In the love of Jesus, Tommy Hays My friend, may you be filled with the hope and Holy Spirit of God, abounding in hope and ready to go and share His Good News to everyone, in every way, in every place He leads you, whether at home or abroad, whether going in person or going in prayer, in Jesus' name. God bless you, my friend! And you have a great day!
