Heavenly Father, thank you this morning
For you waking us up.
It is by your grace we were able to wake up this morning
Father God, we’re about to go and look for our daily bread
Carry your children, that we will be able to come back safely
Father God, I’m asking you to direct us as you directed the Apostle Peter to throw his net on the righthand side.
Holy Spirit, as your word said knock at the door and the door will be opened unto you
Seek and ye shall receive
We are asking you this morning to guide and protect us
The canoe is in your hands, the machine (motor) is in your hands,
My crew on board are into your hands
Guide us and carry us, that we will get enough catch and come back.
We don’t have anything to give you but to glorify your name
Through Jesus’ Mighty Name I have prayed,
Amen.
