MORNING PRAYER

FATHER, we thank You for this day, and we dedicate it to You, asking that You would keep us in Your will, that everything we do would be for Your honor and glory. We plead the blood of Jesus over us, our home and our household, our family, our children, our animals, our activities and everything that we do. We claim Psalm 91 that You would give Your angels charge over us, to keep us in all our ways that not even our foot would stumble and no plague can come against our house. Forgive us all our sins, as we confess them in our minds to You right now, and examine our lives and show us if there is anything not pleasing to You, and help us to change it. We thank You and we believe and receive all these things right now, in the name of Jesus, AMEN.

Binding Satan (with your eyes open, always out loud)

Satan, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we break your power over us, over our home and our household and our family and our children, our animals and everything that we do. We're under the blood of Jesus and you can not come near us. We stand in His Name and rebuke you and bind you, that you cannot bring any trouble or strife, hatred, anger, fear, doubt, unbelief or sickness or problem or any other thing against us. We remind you that Jesus has defeated you and His word says that if we stand and resist you, you must flee from us, and no weapon formed against us will prosper. Watan, you stay away from us, in Jesus name.

What a great idea, soul alive! *prays* Here's one by Saint Francis of Assisi:

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury,pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console;
to be understood as to understand;
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive;
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned;
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

An Invitation to Christ

Come, my Light, and illumine my darkness.
Come, my Life, and revive me from death.
Come, my Physician, and heal my wounds.
Come, Flame of Divine love, and burn up the thorns of my sins,
Kindling my heart with the flame of Thy love.
Come, my King, sit upon the throne of my heart and reign there.
For Thou alone art my King and my Lord. Amen.
-- Dimitri of Rostov, Russia, 17th century

That is beautiful, so much like a poem.
