The Only Way to Start your Day: Morning Prayer

All over the world, most people recognize the importance of a uplifting start in the
morning. The whole day is heavily impacted by how we begin our day in the morning. Starting the day with morning prayer is the only way. Many people who love God dearly don’t make the time to start their day with prayer-so it is an issue that affects all types of religious/spiritual people.

In the midst of all the hustle and bustle, commotion and combustion in our lives-we need more peace and calm to function daily. Our qualities of lives are being stained by the stresses of the world by TV, work, family, and interaction with people. The “little purple pill or blue pill,” can not permanently bring peace, joy and happiness in our lives during these times. Medications provide a temporary illusion to the mind and body that peace is present.

Seeking God in the early morning strengthens your faith and knowing that you serve a loving God who wants you to always have an expected end-no matter what obstacles we face daily. Commencing your day with prayer allows you to get control of the day by expressing to God that you depend on his guidance and protection. God knows we have decisions and plans for the day- he alone knows the future and the outcome of those plans/decisions as well.

We are human beings that always seem to forget how we made it through trials and tribulations of the past-especially when times are good. So prayer humbles the conscious mind and reminds the unconscious mind of the need for us to depend on our heavenly creator. God is our source of life and morning prayer allows that belief to reflect in our actions as we progress through the day.

How we begin to have Morning Prayer will be different for everyone. Just like the relationship we have with our heavenly creator is unique for every individual. In my opinion the best time to pray is before getting out of the bed. Spend a few minutes just thanking God for waking you up another day. Some people have morning rituals-like going to the toilet first for a morning release.

Personally I have received so much revelation from having a little prayer time with God while on the toilet in the morning. Talking to God while brushing your teeth or in the shower adds a bit of refreshment to our prayers- in the sense that we are washing off yesterday and looking forward to a great new day.

Once you start to tune in to your heavenly creator every morning, the universe tunes into you. Your thoughts are acted upon sometimes before you can make a verbal request to God. You become a light to other people who start their days in a “bad space.” They might not know that morning prayer is healing.

Morning prayer is a meditative time that affects every aspect of the mind, body and soul. It opens the mind and heart to receive insight, instruction and increase from our heavenly creator. Also we receive strength because prayer reminds us the life’s challenges don’t have to be handled by our might; we have a supernatural protector and angels that are here to help us when we call.

Consistent morning prayer restrains us from making so many unanticipated mistakes. This is the gospel of good news that Jesus encourages us to spread all over the world-God’s everlasting love and protection.
