DAILY PRAYERS

SELECTED MORNING PRAYERS

Protection Prayer (to be prayed daily upon waking up)

LORD, I ask you to protect my family (mention by name) from sickness, from all harm and from accidents. If any of us have been subjected to any curses, hexes, or spells, I declare these curses, hexes, or spells null and void in the Name of Jesus Christ.  If any evil spirits have been sent against us, I pray that you decommission them in the Name of Jesus Christ and send them to Jesus to deal with as He will. Then, Lord, I ask you to send your holy angels to guard and protect all of us always. In the name of the + Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

The Fiat of the Eternal Father (say every morning)

My Beloved Father, Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Be Thou my Father. Be always my Eternal Father. Do not leave my soul. Do not abandon me. Do not leave me out of Your sight, my Father, for I am Your child, whom You have created to please You, to adore You, to honor You, living my days as You have given me the license to live it. (I offer up this Fiat through Mary, to Jesus, to You, Eternal Father.)

Beautiful Morning Prayer

My Dear Lord and God, Creator of All, I humbly kneel before You and I (or we) thank You for this glorious day.  Thank you for the Gift of Life.  I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning and for so many other so-taken for granted blessings. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God.  You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to You.  I ask now for Your forgiveness. Please keep us safe from all danger and harm, but when I need chastising, help me to accept it humbly knowing that Your Plan is Perfect.

Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude.  Let every heartbeat and breath, praise Thy Holy Name. Let all of creation sing and praise Thy Holy Name! Let me make the best of each and everyday to clear my mind so that I can hear from You. Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.  Let me see and accept the whole world as my family because we were all created by You and we are family! Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over.  Let me be a strong and brave prayer warrior. Let me depend only on YOU.  Let me continue to see sin through Your eyes and acknowledge it as evil.  Let the world which is blinded by (sin) evil have their blinders removed so they can see and follow YOUR Light! And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.  And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example - to slip away and find a quiet place to pray.

It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits.  I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Send the Power of Your Most Holy Spirit upon me and open my heart and help me to surrender to Your Will. Continue to use me to do Your will. Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others.  Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others.  I pray for those that are lost and can't find their way.  I pray for those that are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately.  I pray for those who have no one to pray for them. I pray for the dying of today and in the coming days.  I pray for the sick, the helpless, the blind, the disabled, the homebound, the homeless, the hungry, the poor, the imprisoned, the hospitalized, the depressed, the lonely, the forgotten, the abused and neglected, the elderly, the children of the world, the fathers and mothers, and especially all families. I pray for the leaders of our nation and the world that they would become in tune with listening with their hearts to YOUR Guidance and to be obedient to YOUR Word so that this world could again become 'One Nation Under YOU'. 

Let this nation recoil from sin and be a leader in example to other nations. I pray for those who do not believe.  But I thank You that I believe for even this is YOUR Grace. I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers, and for each and every family member in their households.  I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met. I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God.  Within Him we know all things are possible.  Every battle is in Your hands Lord God.  I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly. This is my humble prayer In Jesus' Almighty and All-Powerful Name, the Name Above All Names, Sweetest Name and Prayer ever uttered.  Amen.

Prayer to Accept God’s Plan for Our Day

Dear Lord, I do not know what will happen to me today; I only know that nothing will happen that was not foreseen by You and directed to my greater good from all eternity.  I adore Your holy and unfathomable plans and submit to them with all my heart for love of you, the Pope, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Amen.

Daily Prayer to the Sacred Heart

O most holy Heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore You, I love You, and with lively sorrow for my sins, I offer You this poor heart of mine.  Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to Your will. Grant, dear Jesus, that I may live in You and for You.  Protect me when I am in danger.  Comfort me in my afflictions.  Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, Your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Within Your Heart I place my every care.  (Here state your petitions.)  In every need let me come to You with humble trust saying, Heart of Jesus, help me.  Amen.

Daily Prayer to Eliminate a Sinful Habit

Lord, please give me the grace to overcome this sinful habit(name it).  I don’t want to offend you any longer, but I know that I can’t change without your help.  Help me to develop a discipline that puts you first.  Help me replace my sinful habit with a prayerful habit that gives you honor and glory.  I will keep praying this prayer until my sinful habit is behind me as dust in the wind. Amen.
