“Dreaming God Sized Dreams: Rebuilding Families in 53206 Through Being Steadfast, Unmovable, and Abounding In The Work Of The Lord”

Lord God, heavenly Father,

We bless You for Your steadfast and never changing love. Thank You that in Your Word You have promised us that nothing can separate us from Your love, not a change in our finances, social status, marital status, health, or anything else. Thank You that we can build and rebuild and shape and reshape our lives each day on the sure foundation of Your steadfast love for us. Help us to have a steadfast, immovable heart, to hear, plant and keep Your word in our hearts. Let Your word take root in us and bring forth much fruit honoring and glorifying You. We acknowledge that not all fruit is good fruit and not all work is needed or beneficial. We understand that there is much work to be done within ourselves, within our families, within our church, within our communities, our city, our state, and our country. At times, this work seems to be too much and too discouraging. We fall short in our faith, feel weak, and forget that forgiveness is freely offered and repentance is always within reach when we allow You to fill our souls with Your love, encouragement, and strength against all temptations. We realize that Satan will oppose us at every turn. He desires for us to give in and give up! Thank You that through Your Holy Spirit, Your Word, prayer, and worship, we are reminded and encouraged that Christ defeated Satan. His opposition is not powerful enough to immobilize us. Remind us each day that walking with You through this life, getting to know You through Your Word, prayer, meditation, and seeking You in every experience and every life situation is the most beneficial work that will bring about the ultimate and best possible fruit for our lives and for Your kingdom here on Earth. Therefore, we ask today that you gift us with wisdom and self-discipline that will keep our minds, hearts, and hands fixed to thoughts, words, and actions that demonstrate our love and devotion to You, bring You glory, and show someone the way to You. Give us patience and understanding that will lead us to listen to, follow and obey Your Holy Spirit. Lastly Lord, give us strength to be faithful and courageous and not turn to the left or to the right but to remain steadfast and immovable on Your promises, on the daily blessings You bestow on us, and the love, grace, and mercy You shower on us. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
