El Hayyay, The God of My Life, I give You all glory, honour and praise. I worship You, this morning, lifting You up and giving thanks for another day, which has been placed before me. I pray that every minute will be used to know You more. In Your Word You reveal to me that You are multi-faceted – I Am that I Am; there is none like You: You cannot be fully explained, You are Mighty, You are Great; There is none like You: You are my Heavenly Father.
Today, knowing what I do, I ask for Your help in every decision to be made. Help me to launch out into the deep. Assist me in taking You at Your Word. Give me blind faith. Your Word tells me that You have never seen the righteous forsaken nor Your seed begging bread. Father God, I thank You that I am righteous and I am covered.
Therefore, may I be enlightened and aware of exactly what it means to be of the ones who are named righteous, to be right standing, so I may ask all of You and know that I shall receive. You have said in Your Word that I should ask and it will be given; seek and will find; knock and it will be given. I stand before You and ask, seek and knock at the door because You are The One Who holds the key to all.
I pray that I will truly see Your goodness in my life, as I choose to rest in You. May I know the full power of my belief in the resurrection of Your Son Jesus Christ. May I take hold of my glorious inheritance. My Father and my God, I fully trust in You.
To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.
Isaiah 61:3 (AMPC)
18 And [I pray] that the eyes of your heart [the very center and core of your being] may be enlightened [flooded with light by the Holy Spirit], so that you will know and cherish the [b]hope [the divine guarantee, the confident expectation] to which He has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in the [c]saints (God’s people),
19 and [so that you will begin to know] what the immeasurable and unlimited and surpassing greatness of His [active, spiritual] power is in us who believe. These are in accordance with the working of His mighty strength
Ephesians 1:18-19 (AMP)
To grant [consolation and joy] to those who mourn in Zion—to give them an ornament (a garland or diadem) of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, the garment [expressive] of praise instead of a heavy, burdened, and failing spirit—that they may be called oaks of righteousness [lofty, strong, and magnificent, distinguished for uprightness, justice, and right standing with God], the planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.
