Message:
Jesus, thank You for choosing to humble yourself to the point of death— even death on the cross. Your decision to glorify Your Father through sacrificial obedience changed everything. Thank You for showing me how to live, and for allowing me to live with You. Today, help me to worship You. Amen.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart full of gratitude and awe for the incredible sacrifice that Your Son made on our behalf. The depths of His humility, choosing the cross, remind us of the lengths to which love can go. In a world where pride often reigns, Jesus modeled a life of servanthood and selflessness. Help me to absorb this lesson into my heart and practice it in my life. May I prioritize others before myself, following the example of Christ who gave everything for us.
Lord, in moments of challenge and pressure, remind me to reflect on the humility exhibited by Jesus. When I find myself tempted to seek recognition or validation from the world, guide me instead to seek Your approval. May I find joy in quiet acts of service, in loving those who are often overlooked, and in sharing Your truth with those around me.
Teach me to live sacrificially, putting aside my desires for the good of others. Empower me through Your Spirit, so that my actions reflect the love and grace that You have shown me. In the noise of life, help me to cultivate a spirit of worship that honors You in everything I do.
As I navigate my daily responsibilities, I ask that Your presence be a constant reminder of Your greatness. May I find rest and strength in You, recognizing that every moment is an opportunity to glorify Your name. Help me to internalize the truth that my life is a gift, meant to be shared and multiplied through acts of kindness and love.
Finally, I pray for the courage to share my faith boldly, showcasing the light of Christ in a world that is often dark and searching for hope. Let my words be seasoned with grace, and may they point others to You. Thank You for the privilege of knowing You and for the transformational work You continue to do in my life. I commit to worship You today and every day. Amen.
Jackie
