Grace and blessing - All The Good Seed Daily Devotionals for 2026

God be merciful to us and bless us, and cause His face to shine upon us.
Psalm 67:1

Grace and blessing
Psalm 67 begins with a glorious plea to God to be gracious to His people and to bless them. This short prayer makes us think of the words in James 1:17, “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights”. From our God and Father in heaven we can truly expect every good thing. Therefore, let us also ask Him for this.

o Let us pray for ourselves personally, that He will help us to keep His Word in our hearts and to put it into practice in our lives.

o Let us ask Him to fill our hearts with Christ, our mouths to testify of Him and our actions to glorify Him.

o Let us pray for our families, that together we may stay focused on the Lord and grow in faith.

o Let us ask for wisdom to approach our spouse and children with the attitude of the Lord Jesus.

o Let us pray for the gatherings of believers, that the Word of God may be preached for the blessing of those present.

o Let us ask the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into His work and to show us personally where we can help.

o Let us pray for a way through the world in which we can honour the Lord, avoid evil, and witness to people about our Saviour.

When we make such requests to our God and Father, He will make His promise come true and give us more than we ask for (Ephesians 3:20–21).
