There’s never a bad time to talk to God. But when you start your morning with him, you’re handing over the rest of your day to him too—putting God in the driver’s seat for the day. You can talk through your plans, listen for his wisdom, and hand over your worries to him.
When you take your eyes off of the Lord, that’s when stress can sweep in and overtake you. Morning prayers refresh, recharge, and rekindle your passion for God. They help you get empowered to take on the day with the help of the mighty Holy Spirit.
Make a decision to start your mornings with the following powerful prayers. Think about the words you are saying and agreeing with. Be grateful and let your mouth be filled with His praise all day long for He is worthy!
Below are powerful morning prayers to bless you.
Prayer for a New Day
Dear Lord,
This morning as I contemplate a new day, I ask you to help me. I want to be aware of your spirit—leading me in the decisions I take, the conversations I have, and the work I do. I want to be more like you, Jesus, as I relate to the people I meet today—friends or strangers. Jesus, you were always about your father’s business and I thank you that he is now my father too because of what you did on this earth. Although I know that I am weak, I also know that by the power of your spirit, I can be strong in the work I do, the decisions I make, and the words I speak. I thank you that you promise to be with me always, and for being the same yesterday, today, and forever. Amen.
A Morning Prayer for Joy and Strength
Dear Lord
I look to You for my daily strength and power to complete what You have in store for me today. With You working in me, I know that I have strength for all that I will face. Please prepare me for the things I will encounter throughout my day.
I ask for boldness and courage to be an ambassador for Jesus Christ. May I reflect Your goodness, mercy, and love to those I see in Jesus Name. I thank You for Your grace in me. It is You working through me that will accomplish all that You have set before me this day Amen.
A Prayer for Each New Morning
Dear Lord
Each and every morning as I begin to wake, I pray that the first thought of each new day would be of You and of your unfailing love for me. I pray that You would give me wisdom for every single situation I will be facing today. Show me what I should do and where I should go. I trust my life to you Amen.
Prayer for Guidance
Dear Lord
everywhere I walk, let it be on your path. Everything I see, let it be through your eyes. Everything I do, let it be your will. For every hardship I face, let me place it in your hands. Every emotion I feel, let it be your spirit moving in me. Everything I seek, let me find it in your love. My dear God, I thank you for this day. I ask not to know where I am going, but only to know and feel in the depths of my heart and soul that you are with me. You are guiding me, and I am safe. In Jesus’ name, I offer myself to you. Amen.
Morning Prayer For Wisdom
Dear Lord
You know all things and in Your Word there is a promise for those who lack wisdom. All we need to do is ask and You will liberally supply us with that we need to know.
This morning I ask You for wisdom for the day. Please help me to make right decisions when I am faced with today’s questions. Holy Spirit, show me where to go. I will follow You.
I want all that I do today to bring You glory. Thank You for directing my steps and leading me down the path You want me to walk.
Protect me today and keep me from hidden dangers. Surround me with Your angels wherever I go. In Jesus’ Name, amen
Thank You for This Day

Give me strength in the midst of weariness and hope in the midst of any frustrations or hurts. I need you Lord, every hour, I need you. I surrender this day to you, trusting in your mercy, strength, and grace.
