Father in heaven, thank You for another day. I pray that our hearts are open to Your message for us today as we go through our daily routines. May we sense You near. May we tangibly feel the grace and peace that comes from knowing You and seeking Jesus. Your faithful promises uphold our faith. Let Your transcendent moral order guide our every thought and deed, that we may truly partake in the divine nature. May we love as You love and live the life that pleases You. I ask before Your throne in the name and authority of Jesus, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.

“Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue, by which have been given to us exceedingly great and precious promises, that through these you may be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.” (2 Peter 1: 2-4 NKJV)
