Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord. Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly. – Psalm 5:3(NLT)
PRAYER AT START OF DAY
A poem and essay by ILMA
Lord, I call on you each morning
Bring me joy and alleviate my suffering
I lay down my burdens on your cross
Do what you need to do so I could come across
I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly
I believe that you have my best interest at heart faithfully
I am hopeful that you will hear my prayer today
Grant me an opportunity to bless someone this very day.

What time of day do you usually pray? I do my best to do it in the morning. Unless something really comes up that is unusual, I want to start my day with my “God time.” I noticed that when I do, I usually am able to manage whatever the day brings. During the odd times that I am not able to prioritize my time with the Lord, I still think of him and tell him that I will find time for him definitely. I never usually pass a day without praying to him.
The bible tells us that King David brought his requests to the Lord in the morning and waited expectantly for the answers to the prayer. We can learn from King David to faithfully start our day with a time for God.
PRAYER
Help me to start my day with you always
REFLECTION
What are the benefits of morning prayers for a believer?
