Good morning, Jesus.
Lord, You have gone to great lengths to show people who You are. Why You chose to leave the glories of Heaven to come to this broken world leaves us baffled, but we’re forever thankful You did. By living a sinless life, only You could be God’s flawless sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sins on the cross. Your burial and resurrection three days later proved You are the Son of God who makes all who trust You righteous before God. When I am absolutely clear as who You are, then it becomes clear to me who I am. My identity is forever tied to You, Jesus. This truth reassures me that no matter what my worst critic and enemy [the devil] lies about me or what may happen, I’ll cling to what Your servant Paul confidently wrote, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).
Bless and protect our front-line warriors battling this COVID-19. Protect their health, physical and mental wellbeing. Protect their families. We pray all those infected by COVID-19 will make complete recoveries. May this health crisis draw people closer to You in addition to drawing them closer to their families and loved ones. May more people see who You really are, Lord Jesus, and find their identity in You.
Forgive our sins, heal our nation, show us how to love one another as You love us, warts and all.
Thankful to be numbered with You, Jesus. Amen.
