- Опубликовано: 18 авг 2024
- Jews believe that every morning, God renews each person as a new creation. Therefore, the “Modeh Ani” prayer is traditionally recited every morning, even before getting out of bed. This prayer serves the purpose of expressing gratitude to God for restoring one’s soul each morning (Lamentations 3:22-23: “Surely the LORD’S mercies are not consumed, surely His compassions fail not.”).

I grew up with this understanding from my mom. She always taught me to give thanks when I wake up for the almighty returning my soul to my body. My mother side of family were Jews that escaped Germany and hid in the Caribbean. They became 7th day Adventist to hide their identity and still be able to speak Hebrew and observe sabbath. I was raised to give thanks to the master of the universe every morning for waking up. Since I was never baptized as Christian I decided to go back to my Jewish roots and I am so grateful 💙🤍✡️.
How beautiful is your family history! I'm a staunch pagan but have always been proud of my Jewish lineages (as a typical latino, I have other lineages as well), I'm so glad to see people cultivating their ancestral lineages which do not fit into the stereotypes some make of one's appearance. Here in Brazil, most people often neglect their South American lineages but the natives themselves treat as 'relatives' those who do cultivate that side of their lineages, even when mixed with non indigenous!
My ancestors were Jewish immigrants in ancient India..We still retain certain aspects of that heritage. My ancestors converted to Christianity in the 1st century. We are proud of the heritage . Judaism is what made it possible to entrench our faith. "Todah"!
Blessing every morning to the good people in the land of god und for Ayelet for good teaching hebrew. Stay strong and healthy.
Todah Ayelet. When I converted over 30 years ago we did not have these internet tools. I said the Modeh Ani every morning and it gave me comfort and connection. My kids gre up and left home. My husband passed away, and somewhere along the way, when.I could have used more comfort and connection, I stopped saying it each day. Now I hope I can teach my grandchildren as I renew my connection to prayer and to God.
Yom Chamashi, 23 November 2023: Jack, todah rabah. Elohim Yeverech ot;cha. I am an African American man with a Jewish and Latin soul. I go to Shabbat services on Saturdays. The moment I open my eyes in bed, I thank Adonai, Elohim and Yeshua because some people die in their sleep and then I say my regular prayer. Ani mehdeber Anglit, Sefardit ve kitsat Ivrit. I learned in Judaism that we should thank Adonai, and Elohim each time we are able to breath, swallow food urinate or defecate in the toilet. Most people take those things for granted. Earlier this year, I saw a man in a Walmart store and we were talking and he told me that he has to always use the bathroom in an attached bag to his body my ex-girlfriend's sister had a similar problem, not able to defecate in the toilet the normal way. So, Todah La El for everything.
Yeah, bro, right you are, and there are chances that the older you get the more you get grateful for every day your body works like it should. There is a good reason for the yiddish greeting "Blayb zhye mir gezond!" ... Yevarekhekha et Adonayi Eloheynou!
I will be watching this as often as I can for this priceless
I am so happy that I found your channel. The way you teach makes it easy for me to learn to say my prayers in Hebrew. I am praying every day for Israel and the Jewish people. ❤
Beautiful...and thank you.🙏
A very long spiritual journey to discover and observe a continuously created truth...
Sadly most people don't think of the most obvious fact being constantly observed...
In Christianity.... You would be hard-pressed to find people that actually observe and take into account that Jesus was Jewish and a rabbi and he was a teacher of Judaism....
This simple fact started me on a two-decade long journey....
One beautiful thing... is the truth does not require anyone to believe it and it will still be the truth...
My "belief" fails... ...but my knowing and having faith in the truth...Does not fail.🙏
Thank you so much for teaching us this prayer, I am trying to learn it myself and will teach it to my children in both languages and hopefully later in Spanish too. How blessed we are to wake up! It teaches them the mercy and dependency of Hashem... start the day gratefully and in such a positive note. Also obeying the Shema... speaking them as soon as we rise up. How Great is our Elohim!! ❤🙌🏽
Shabbat shalom and thank you
Shalom dear sister Ayelet!! Thank you for this lesson and all of the lessons you teach Avinu bless you B’Shem Yeshua HaMashiach Amen!❤️🔥❤️🔥🕊️🙏
Dearest Ayelet will you produce caps and tee-shirts that only say Yeshua? I would certainly buy many of them!! The Messiah’s Name is Yeshua after all right?👍😊❤️🔥😊Yeshua means Salvation right? ❤️🔥🙌🙌🕊️🙌🙌❤️🔥
Shalom Renaud, yes, nearly, or let's say in short form it means salvation, but in fact it says Yah saves, so it's a full sentence, like Yeshuati stands for my salvation means in fact Yah saves me. See the song Yeshuati from Elihana Elia... ;-)
Todah Ayelet. Your step by step clear pronunciation together with the visual text was very helpful.
may we all be made anew shavua tov❤
Thank you for this. I appreciate you going over the transliteration of this prayer very slowly. Just what I needed.
I love Hebrew I want to learn the Gods language
Shalom ,,Toda raba ,I’m from Ecuador
Praise Adonai ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Have been in love with this prayer for quite some time. Although I had not known of the difference of the beginning, I have now begun using the correct feminine form. I absolutely love this prayer. Thank you for your beautiful videos.
Thank you so much for your teachings they are a blessing 🙏
תודה רבה
Thank you
תודה לך
thank you! l recently started praying this in the morning along with another Berakah; the prayer that mentions… for this new day.
🙏🏾🕊️🇮🇱
Thank you! I have been saying it in English every morning for some time and now will “graduate” to do it in the Lord’s language.
Baruch Hashem
Blessings! This touches my heart being able to reconnect to my light. Shalom!❤
SHALOM God Bless
I learned this sometime last year on my own, and have been saying it ever since! Thank you for putting it up for others to know and learn as well! Baruch HaShem!
Thank you God bless you
Thank you, Toda
Excellent 🎉
I am SO happy to have found you!
I learned Hebrew in synagogue in the US.
And now to hear your voice pronunciation of Hebrew words is a beautiful special blessing for me.
Yeshua HaMashiach Reigns
Shalom
🙏🏼😊🌎💕
Thank you for this. Todah Robah!
Shalom
Toda raba!
Danke liebe Ayelet! (Thanks dear+beloved Ayelet!)
This is wonderful. The Hebrew sounds beautiful.
Todah Raba !
Hi Ayelet. I have been saying this every day when I wake up ever since your video came out. It’s great. Can you please teach us the Elohai Neshamah too? I think it is a beautiful prayer in English. But, of course, it would be better in Hebrew❤
Thank you so very much. Through your teaching method I am able to learn.❤
Shalom ve boker tov Ayelet, strange things can happen during prayer 😅: This morning i got the impression that HaRouakh HaKodesh told me that @ the end after the mazl tov you meant not to say "these biblical verses in hebrew" but rather "these verses in biblical hebrew" ... Now that really makes more sense for me.
BTW:
Since the day i had to miss the takeoff of my plane to the Ben-Gurion-airport on the morning of the 15th of October cuz my beloved wife said that she doesn't wanna go to Erets Yisraël any more 😢, not this year and not in future and never again shall i ask her to take a plane with me to any country where many arabs live who are great fans of the Sounnah or the Shiat Ali, I'm adding this prayer according to Elihana Elia to the Modeh Ani now every morning: 😮
Shomer Yisraël, koumah !
Koumah, Adonayi Tsevaoth, neged oyvekha !
Baroukh Ha ba be Shem Adonayi Eloheynou: HaMashiakh Ben David, Melekh ha Olam va'ed !
I hope that neither you nor Elihana had to be enroled in the IDF and that both of you can stay safe with all of your families ! 😢
Blaybt zhye mir gezond ! 😊
Shalom, Thank you for pointing out that I said "biblical verses" at the end of this video. I re-use the same ending in my videos and forgot to change that part, but now I took it out, so it's all good :-)
Sorry you had to miss your trip to Israel... Not a great time to go there now, that's for sure. Not sure who is "Elihana", my name is Ayelet. I was born & raised in Israel and served in the IDF when I was 18, like most Israelis do. Later, I moved to the USA and lived here ever since. My family in Israel is fine so far, but any prayers will be appreciated :-) (And I don't know Yiddish 😳)
Very helpful! Toda raba!
Thank you so much for this lesson. I am a Christian who wishes to learn Hebrew as Jesus did. I am also looking for a Messianic Jewish temple to join. These lessons will be a great help in this lovely journey. Shalom, Shalom.
Salut Nathalie, en effet, du moins je le pense, Jésus avait une meilleure base de départ que nous français pour apprendre le hébreu: Grandi chez des parents parlant Araméen, sa langue natale n'était pas beaucoup plus loin de la langue des écritures que le néerlandais l'est de l'allemand...😅 En plus je suppose que Joseph l'a envoyé chez le rabbin pour apprendre à lire et écrire (en hébreu, car famille juive, pas araméenne!) à partir de l'âge de 4 ans. En plus comme son Père est celui qui a écrit les 10 commandements par son propre doigt sur un morceau de rocher du Sinaï (ce qui m'inflige un certain respect de Son doigt, vu la dûretée de la roche là bas car c'est du basalte ...) et cela en hébreu bien sûr, pour Jésus, apprendre l'hébreu a dû être relativement facile. La preuve: Un an avant sa Bar Mitzvah il enseignait déjà les Théologues au temple. Pour pouvoir le faire fallait citer la Thora, les prophètes et les écritures, toutes en hébreu (à part quelques p'tits chapitres de Daniel), donc il était vraiment fort en hébreu déjà avant d'avoir le droit de le lire publiquement... 😅 Que le Seigneur te bénisse dans tes éfforts et à chaque fois que tu sors de ta porte et que tu y retournes. 😊
That was quick and easy. Thank you!
Todah raba I'm enjoying this class toda.
Shalom Aylet
Thank you so much 💓 Im glad i found this and you so much too

One of the best Hebrew channels ever! I so love that you always use the nikkudim and explain the pronunciation syllable by syllable. I'll never feel comfortable with reading without the nikkudim, it's simply not in my nature:-)
Blessed be you for your amazing work, kol hakavod ve todah rabah😇😇🙏 Always sharing and giving the due thumbs-up!
@@TheWORDinHEBREW B'vakashah but we are the ones to be thankful for your blessed work!🙏🙏🙏
By the way, have a blessed 2023!
Shalom Akhiy, I feel the same way: Hebrew without Nikkoudim is like Arabic without Fatha, Kasra and Dhamma: You never know which possibility is the meant one...
Do you also have ancestral roots in Poland or France? I think this Feeling comes from some european ancestral roots, maybe in Spain or Germany too...
@@fennecabumukallalabdulmasi3867 I'm Brazilian and have many Sephardic lineages from long ago converted Iberian Jews and certainly other European ones and also South American natives, as most latinos have as well. My matrilineal grandpa used to say one of his grandmas was a blue-eyed blond German Jew though.
@@fennecabumukallalabdulmasi3867 Shalom, akhi! 😇

I so wish we could start a movement to get more material in Hebrew with all the nikkudim!
@@joalexsg9741 Shalom, Shalom Joal. Do you mean a movement for the use of Nikkoudim also in non-religious texts? That would be quite new in the use of actual modern ivrit. For the printers it would for sure be a load of extra work. You know that in Eretz Yisrael they generally seem to think that Nikkoudim are not really useful and rather unnecessary extrawork ( that's the same way of thinking that they have adopted from their arabic neighbours... ;-)
Thank you sis I like very much the way you teach and I want more like this vedio with meaning in english
Muchas gracias! Deseó que Dios te bendiga y te guarde. 💕💕💕💕💕💕💕
Thanks, very blessed
I am Christian and I am thankful for your teaching. I love learning to worship G_d in Hebrew. This is so wonderful. Thank you, again. Shalom.
Thanks
Great teacher👏🏻
Toda Rava! I love this teaching and will share with my kids. Sounds like this is the secret of success of Jewish people in history!
I am Muslim but I want to learn Hebrew and Jewish prayers for my research because I am a writer . I want to write a novel on Moses and His followers based plot in my native tongue Pashto spoken in Afghanistan/ Pakistan . . .
Muito bom, o seu trabalho é excelente. Obrigado
Such a beautiful prayer. Thank you.
Fantastic thank you. A true contribution to the world amidst a torrent of useless efforts
Shalom, Thank you much. This teaching method is perfect, All praises to YAH, 1🩸❤💯
I love it thanks very much
תודה רבה, G-d bless you , Sister.
Thank you from Sunflower 🌻 Alabama Shalom.
Nice to see you are still at it. Shabbath Shalom.

Thank you on your teaching, such patience is great and I hope to continue to learn.
THANK YOU. I'm learning so much thanks to you. Shalom 🕊♥️
Thank you 2, stay blessed, shalom🙏🏽

Toda raba..
Thank you.😊☦
thank you for teaching the prayer
That's fantastic. You should transform to being a little anointed one and accept Jeshua, Yeshua, as Messiah. There is Good News and the Holy Spirit speaks. You and Palestine have become two halves of the same whole.
Their is a deliverer. His name is Yeshua. Joshua, Jesus,
I guess you missed my testimony 😉 ruclips.net/p/PLJJoBHeww3h43XWsANZTmEnFmn1cHYu5Z&si=SnPJY4YfdVhwGAJV
can you please do this for the entire weekday Shakharit ?
Amazing!!! Thank you Ayelet! Now I will learn this one ☺️
beautiful prayer! 🙏
SHalom - I am from the uK but live and work in Vietnam - there is a chabad near me but they dont help conversion so I am learning now the 3 daily prayers, shacharit, minhah and maariv online by myself and learning from your videos is a great help - may Hashem bless you and your family.
Thank you very much for what you do I love it !!
Shabbat Shalom Ayelet! I made it through these biblical verses as you said and honestly I like your teaching method. Is your main job teaching to read and write in primary school? 😅
Shalom! First of all the "Modeh Ani" Prayer is not biblical, but a traditional Jewish, rabbinical prayer (I explain that in the beginning of the video).
I'm glad you like my teaching method :-). No, I do not teach in school, lol.
Beautiful! Inspiring!
Superb.
❤❤❤
Beautiful
I just learned what your name means! "Doe of the Dawn!" Did you know God uses deer to speak to me?? (I got crazy stories about that!) I just thought that was so cool!
He speaks to me in many different ways also--like He does most of us--But the deer has been a significant symbol that He uses since I met Him 2 years ago. I love Jesus!!
Sister, I had asked you a question, but you have not cleared my doubt.
Sister, PRAISE THE L-RD. Why G-D YAHWEH Seperated everything as male and female even non-living creatures along with living creatures. Even food, trees, mountains,lakes etc.., Is there any specific reason behind this?
💐
☺️🙏Still practicing…..🧐
סרטון מעולה! תודה רבה על התוכן הזה.
אני מברזיל ואני רוצה ללמוד את התפילות בעברית ולהפוך אותה למשמעותית יותר עבור אלוהים ועבורי.
אם יורשה לי לשאול אותך, האם תוכל לעשות זאת גם עם התפילה "אנא בכח" בבקשה?
Shalom Ayelet
I appreciate your videos, you’re such a good teacher, I went to purchase this prayer from your website, I didn’t find it, can you please add it, I would like a print out. Baruch HaShem!
@@TheWORDinHEBREW Toda Raba!
Hi, thanks sister. Could you please help us with the prayer pattern for women.
@@TheWORDinHEBREW . Can you make a video on what all prayers the jewish women should recite everyday. Like for morning, evening.
Shabbat Shalom Ayelet! In case you spend your time teaching lil kids to read, write, pray and sing, etc. pp., once they reached their 2nd year, do you also tell them where in the Tanakh they can find the bases of what they learn?
I don't teach kids, unless they watch my videos here on YouYube :-) All my videos and posters reference the biblical verse they are from. However, this video for the "Modeh Ani" Prayer is not biblical, but a traditional Jewish, rabbinical prayer (I explain that in the beginning of the video)., so there are no biblical verses for it. Although the focus of my work is in teaching the Word of God (as found in the Bible, specifically the Tanach or OT), every now and then, I feel led to teach a traditional prayer. Although these are based on rabbinical teachings/Jewish traditions, there is nothing wrong with tradition as long as it is not contradicts the Word of God. I hope that helps & God bless!
@@TheWORDinHEBREW oh yeah , sure. It was only due to your "Mazzal tov, etc." where you called this prayer "biblical" and my poor, by Covid19 mistreated brain, started scanning what Covid had left of my memory, without finding something similar to "when you have eaten and been satisfied, take care to thank the Lord your God" or so , but more like " When you handed over your soul to your heavenly Father and in the morning the rooster wakes you up, instead of hating the rooster, take care to thank HaShem for giving you back your conscience before leaving your bed " or so. Only my memory couldn't remember such a verse. I'm fully with you, that tradition is generally a good thing so long it does not contradict the Tanakh. Only some guys later, after decades of living with good habitudes, but loosing more and more memory since they have had Covid19, become unsure sometimes about what is a good habitude based on (Aramaic) tradition and what is a good habitude based on (Hebrew) Holy Scriptures...
@@TheWORDinHEBREW P.S.: If you don't teach kids at school, are you a teacher in a sort of Yeshivah or University or is RUclips your main-pulpit?
@@fennecabumukallalabdulmasi3867 RUclips and my website is where I teach 😉 Sometimes, privately on Zoom too, but I am not taking new students for now.
Shalom Ayelet, thanks for your answers. That's ok for me. Apart of your Videos i also try to learn from Rabbi Shlomo Gold and websites for lil americanzed kids (did I hear you laughing? Well the level for the kids is just what fits to what Covid left if my brain, which decades ago was able to learn Russian in only three months at the army...) and I admit that it works with old greybeardbrains too. 😅
BTW: You may call me an old pessimistic cowheart, but since last Shabbath I'm in deep worry for you, Elihana Elia, Joshoua Aaron's family ( he's himself not in danger cuz he's in Florida since beginning of Sukkot), Mordekhay Ben David, his family and his Yeshivah and so on (it would be a too long prayer request for a RUclips-comment if I name all the wonderful Khazanim and Klezorim I'm in worry for since last Shabbath, but at least pray for the mentioned ones + for Khayim Israel (singing Mizmor 130...) .
I'm a conservative bro, so conservative that my son's say of me: Dadde ish shtokkonservativ.
So even if the Zahal and the Mossad seem to have completely failed to fulfill their duty and even if they completely lost the respect I once had for them, I still believe that HaShem in His holy grace may help cuz He still is able to help them to clean up all the islamic shit on the west coast and this time keep the control over Gaza after turning it into ashes like Dresden was.
Only i' m a lil bit afraid for the two or three Baptist churches in the Gazastrip. Strange I know and yes they are arabs too but not like the other arabs. It sounds strange but these guys are quite messianic arabs and I'm a lil bit in a worry that when finally the IDF-tanks will rollup Gaza, they will not take the time to analyse to make the difference, but honestly these churches are friends of Am Yisrael, but they cannot show it, otherwise the Djihad islamiye will kill them. So even if it may feel strange for you, could you pray not only for the victory of Yisraël, but also that the Baptists find a way to get away before the IDF arrives? Today Rabah !
Are you and your family safe ? Can you give me info, in case you know them, about how the above mentioned klezmorim are going actually?
Can you please add the English prayer text in description box all the time.... Please
I am an Indian Christian, I have few questions and quary can you solved those?
No. 1. Real name of abel and kayen's sisters?
2. How kayen berried abel.
3. Can u make video on hebrew short stories, from the beginning of how God created world & adam, etc.
4. I feel there are many changes in roman Bible.... I want to know hebrew history, because Hebrews are the real race of God....
Suggestion: you can make voice over video with picture slide or animation. Please thik twice.
Next life I want to born in Israel 🇮🇱 as a Jew.... But i love Jesus Christ.... Amen
...whoever builds a high gate invites destruction." Would you be able to explain what the final verse from proverbs 17:19 means , Dear Ayelet ?
Shabbat Shalom Ayelet! I know a verse in the Thora telling us to say thanks to HaShem after having eaten to satisfaction. But I can actually not find the base for the Modeh ani ... Without wanting to type something heretical, but at an age in which I couldn't ask a Rav without earning a dull comment on my poor hebrewknowledge, 😂 may I ask you where is the verse to be found for an early-morning-awaking-prayer ? It's not that I don't usually awake without being innerly grateful to HaShem giving me a new chance to obey (or to ask for Khem ve Hannah by confessing my Selikha ...). But born curious and never caring what "curiosity killed the cat" really means, I'm just interested to know where I can read it. You know yourself I think, that nowadays so many people sell verses (in fact only comments from Rabbounim on original verses) from the Mishnah or one of the Talmoudim as "biblical" that actually I'm much more interested in what the Tanakh says than what a Rav says, although there still are Rabbounim I like, if not even love to hear like Rabbi Schneider from Ohio. But just cuz he's one of those who cite the real original verses and often gives his own comments instead of old ones to his listeners. Rabbi Schneider always tells you where to find the base, much more than where to find additional tradition on the base. Would you please do that for me too and tell me where I can find the base for the Modeh ani? Today rabah be yevarekhekha et Adonayi Eloheynou !
P.S.: Just in case you might think something like "Who on earth is that fully americanized Ashkenazi Yankee Rav Schneider which teaches people to ask bold questions about our holy traditions?" and before judging him before you have heard him, please take the time to look him up... His Shabbat teachings are available on RUclips for free and his teachings are highly intelligent and interesting as he mostly refers to the base itself and less to any aramaic comments... 😅 Rab Schneider talks takheles, but in a somehow lovely way, so lovely you can't even get angry even if you disagree... 😊
Again, All my videos and posters reference the biblical verse they are from. However, this video for the "Modeh Ani" Prayer is not biblical, but a traditional Jewish, rabbinical prayer (I explain that in the beginning of the video)., so there are no biblical verses for it. Although the focus of my work is in teaching the Word of God (as found in the Bible, specifically the Tanach or OT), every now and then, I feel led to teach a traditional prayer. Although these are based on rabbinical teachings/Jewish traditions, there is nothing wrong with tradition as long as it does not contradicts the Word of God. I hope that helps & God bless!
Shalom, Shalom, Ayelet! So this time at least it's not my memory nor my concordance that failed. Nice to know and a relief too somehow. 🐱 Although I don't know the Rabbi you cited, he seems to do quite well as there is a verse somewhere in the Mizmorim saying something like : For the one who offers praise to Me, there's the way I will show him My grace and My gifts. Or it says at the end: I will show him My grace and My salvation. I'm not exactly sure about how this verse ends, but I understood that to bring praises to HaShem as an offering very likely means the following: To praise HaShem even when you are not in the mood to do so. To say Baroukh HaShem and HallelouYah even when your feelings are more tending to utter arab curses rather than a hebrew Berakhah. In former times I felt uncomfortable with that idea, cuz I would express out loud what I didn't feel. Later, means years later, rather many years later, HaRouakh Hakoddesh asked me if what I feel about the facts would change the facts and I answered, no, of course not. He then asked me if what men think about their Creator would affect the Creator's feelings or His existence and I answered by only His feelings, not His existence. He then said, same for you, right? Doesn't matter if others believe you are alive or not, it doesn't change the fact, that you are still here and not in the bosom of Abraham. Right He was !
Then He asked me this: If HaShem is worth of all praise when you feel happy, is it correct to praise Him according to your feelings or according to His word?
This question made me stop and think...
I knew that every older brother would choose the 2nd choice and honestly in case one of my sons would have asked me that question, I would without any hesitation have chosen the 2nd answer too. Now why was I hesitating actually? Why would my answer or how could my own answer to this question differ from what I would tell my own beloved sons if they would ask this question??? ...
Was I trapped in my own thoughts or those of the Rouakh Hakoddesh? The latter is not the goy to trap anyone. To trap me by myself sounds somehow weird. So what's wrong here?
Than He asked me: Who is the Father of all liars?
Suddenly I woke up! That's it! Singing songs saying "If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!" may sound right, but in fact isn't fully right, it's truth mixed with a hidden lie! Cuz if HaShem is worth of praise, this is a fact, written in the Holy Scriptures and the original text may be diverted by some translators, but those goys cannot change the original text. They simply can't!
So why should my personal actual feelings affect this truth? No way! By no means! As well as if all communists of the whole world pretend that God is as dead as Karl Marx is, this does not and cannot in any way change the truth: If Marx once said God is dead, nowadays God says Marx is dead. So God is still Avinou khay, no matter what others say about His death. Really, when silly kibbutzim say such things as God is dead, we really should ask them if they took part in the funerals. If they answer no, we should ask them this: Then how can you be sure about what you proclaimed with such an earnest certainety?
Finally I understood that it's never a lie to say Baroukh HaShem or HallelouYah, even if actually I don't feel like it and am not in the mood cuz my feelings cannot change the heavenly reality...
HallelouYah be shirou la Olam vé Baroukh HaShem le Olam va'ed !
Modeh Ani is a wonderful prayer yet its non authoritatively made up as the Men of the Great Assembly did not comprise it. It is they who determine Jewish Law. They said to arise with El-hai ha Neshama. So it would be a violation of Jewish Law to arise with Modeh Ani. Rambam's Laws of Prayer should detail what to recite.
For women, should it be something like: Modah ani lefanayich?
Yes, you only change the first word as I explain in this video.
