Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.
Give heed to the voice of my cry, My King and my God, For to You I will pray.
My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord; In the morning I will direct it to You, and I will look up. Psalm 5:1-3
Almighty Father in heaven,
As I enter into this new year, I rise up early in the morning to meet you. Establish my footsteps, so that day-by-day I humbly follow the Good Shepherd, the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray for ears to hear His voice, eyes to see His Way and an obedient heart that yearns to be in the midst of Your mighty work.
Bless me Father, with a fresh filling of the Holy Spirit each day, so that all of my words, thoughts and actions in 2016 are aligned according to Your holy will. I praise You dear Father, today and all the days of my life for giving me Jesus, and it is in His precious name I pray.
Amen
