John 15:13 (NIV) Heavenly Father, Thank You for the freedom we enjoy and for the brave men and women who have sacrificed so much to protect it. Today, we remember with grateful hearts that freedom has never come without sacrifice. Lord, Your Word reminds us that there is no greater love than to lay down one's life for one's friends. Help us never forget those who have served, sacrificed, suffered, and given their lives for others. Comfort the families who carry the weight of those sacrifices every day. Thank You for this nation, for its blessings, and for the opportunities You have given us. Help us never take our freedom for granted. May we honor You in all we do and stand for what is right with courage, faith, humility, and love. Bless our leaders with wisdom, our families with unity, our communities with kindness, and our land with peace. Heal our nation where there is division. Teach us to love one another, respect every life, show grace even when we disagree, and seek Your will above our own. Lord, protect those who serve our country today. Watch over our military members, veterans, first responders, and their families. Give strength to the weary, comfort to the grieving, hope to the discouraged, and peace to those carrying wounds that others cannot see. Above all, remind us that true freedom is found in Jesus Christ. Thank You for the greatest sacrifice of all, the sacrifice made on the cross for our sins, our salvation, and the promise of eternal life. May we celebrate today with gratitude, remember yesterday with honor, and walk into tomorrow with faith. In Jesus' precious name I pray, Amen. ✝️🇺🇸❤️🤍💙 Stacey

Proverbs 16:3 (NIV) Heavenly Father, Thank You for waking us to a new day filled with new mercies, new opportunities, and new reasons to trust You. Lord, help us commit every part of our day into Your hands. Teach us to seek You first, trust You fully, and follow Your will above our own. When we do not know what to do, give us wisdom. When we feel uncertain, give us peace. When we feel overwhelmed, give us strength. Father, Your Word tells us to commit to You whatever we do, and You will establish our plans. So today, we surrender our plans, our decisions, our work, our families, our responsibilities, our dreams, and even our worries to You. Establish our plans, guide our steps, and direct our paths. Close the doors that are not meant for us and open the doors that align with Your purpose. Keep us from rushing ahead of You or allowing fear to hold us back from where You are leading. Let everything we do bring glory to You and be a blessing to others. Protect our families, our friends, and our loved ones. Watch over those who travel, those who work, and those who are facing challenges today. Fill our hearts with gratitude, our minds with truth, and our spirits with joy.

🙏 July 5, 2026, Today's Prayer 🙏 Scripture of the Day "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit." Psalm 34:18 (NIV) Heavenly Father, Thank You for being close to us in every season of life, especially in the moments when our hearts are hurting and our spirits feel crushed. Your Word promises that You do not turn away from the brokenhearted. You draw near. Lord, today I lift up every person who is grieving someone they love. Comfort the mother missing her child, the child missing a parent, the husband missing his wife, the wife missing her husband, the family missing someone whose place can never be filled, and every heart carrying a loss that others may not see. Thank You for the beautiful memories of those we have loved. Thank You for the laughter, the lessons, the hugs, the conversations, and even the ordinary moments that became precious after they were gone. Father, when grief comes in waves, hold us steady. When memories bring tears, remind us that love does not become meaningless because someone is no longer physically beside us. When loneliness feels heavy, surround us with Your presence and give us the strength to keep moving forward one day at a time. Help us to trust You with the questions we cannot answer and the pain we cannot explain. Bring peace to troubled hearts, rest to weary minds, and hope to those who feel lost in sorrow. Lord, be especially near to anyone who is grieving today. Let them feel Your comfort in a personal and undeniable way. Remind them that they are seen, they are loved, and they do not have to carry their sorrow alone. Thank You for being our refuge, our comfort, and our strength. Thank You for walking beside us through every valley and for never leaving us when our hearts are broken. Give us courage for today, grace for this journey, and hope for tomorrow. In Jesus' precious name I pray, Amen. 💜🪽🦋✝️ Stacey
