Heavenly Father, our faith and obedience in You is what pleases You. Because You have decided on an even better plan for us then we have planned for ourselves. Your purpose was that only in company with us would they be made perfect. Lord, when burdens increase and answers don’t come I have a choice to become bitter or become strong in You. I acknowledge that I am weak, often dealing with unbelief and fear, when my burdens become my major focus. But when I clothe myself in the spiritual armor You provide I have a powerful defense against the enemy; I will stand firm against Satan’s evil schemes. You cautioned us repeatedly in Scripture that we will have many troubles, but that we should take heart because You help us to overcome them. Jesus, though You’ve proven Yourself to me many times before I ask for grace to trust You even more. In You precious name I ask and thank. Amen.

Heavenly Father, You are the Lord of my life and I live my life for You. There are many good things that beckon my attention, time, and energy. But as You place on my heart a ministry or service that brings eternal significance to others give me strength, endurance and desire to press on zealously, no matter the difficulty or seeming ineffectiveness. As I obey You I find reward and fulfillment in my spiritual walk and am investing in that which does not perish, spoil or fade. Keep me firm and immovable always abounding in Your work because I want to make an eternal difference and am confident that my work for You is never in vain. Thank You Lord and I ask this in the mighty name of Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, we live in a time that a handshake doesn't mean what it used to. Now, a person can have a contract and five lawyers and still that promise often gets broken. We live in a world filled with broken promises resulting in broken dreams and broken lives, but how comforted we are to know that You keep every promise You make. You heal the broken-hearted and bind up their wounds. You call us to Yourself, poor and needy, bruised and broken by the fall, and You stand ready to save us. We must doubt no more but fully trust You on the merit of the blood given for us through the death of Your Son, Jesus. Lord, We confess our brokenness and celebrate Your wholeness as we serve You and transfer our citizenship to Your kingdom that is eternal. Thank You Lord and in the precious name of Jesus we pray. Amen Heavenly Father, I praise You, that in talking to other Christ believers, there is a sense of relief. With this new president, vice president and chosen cabinet members, values we have clung to, seem to be important to them also. Lord, may we honor You and respect ourselves as we fix our eyes and thought life upon whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely and whatever is admirable. Center our attention upon those things which are praiseworthy so that we build others up in the faith as the light of Christ radiates from our spirit to those around us. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen. Heavenly Father, because of what scriptures shows me and because of prophecies fulfilled, I do believe we are in the end times. I learn also that these will be times when it will be difficult to keep a good conscience, and the believers recourse, will be the inspired by Your Word, which is demonstrated to be the power of God unto salvation, able to furnish us unto all good works. I thank You Lord, for the insight given to us through Your Holy Scripture that makes us wise unto salvation and brings understanding to our interpretation of Scripture. Keep us on the right path and help us to be careful to reflect and ponder the truths that teach us the right way to live. Thank You Jesus and in Your name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, as I learn of You and put more trust in You, my life changes. Everything around me becomes different. As my life is less of me, more of You is allowed in my life. Though I am called to go through many hardships, there isn’t one that I face alone. For in my weakness You are made strong, in my folly You are the God of infinite wisdom, and in my fear I take hold of the hope You offer to me which is firm and secure. You will not abandon the work of Your hands but fulfill Your purpose for me as You strengthen, sustain, and instruct me during times of testing. I do not want to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised. Keep me faithful to the end. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray, Amen. Heavenly Father, You bless those who revere Your name and delight in Your commands. In the midst of inner turmoil or outer conflict I will not be shaken for my heart remains steadfast trusting in You and Your overall plan for my life. I want to remain firmly grounded as I overcome the daily obstacles common to all who live on earth. Help me to learn the valuable lessons along the way as I press on toward the goal for which You have called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Amen. Heavenly Father, a scripture that most have memorized, but I wonder if they totally understand it's meaning. Help me Lord, share with the wold what "So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." means. Help me show by my faith and my actions and my words what living a life of faith in You means. You assure us time and again of Your compassionate love toward us through Your Word, through fellow believers, through extraordinary intervention and whatever other means You ordain. You respond to our needs faithfully, but we confess that our doubts begin when Your voice is silent about particular ongoing needs we’re dealing with. It is in these instances that we begin to wonder, do You really do care. But we desire to prove our faith to be genuine by trusting You even when You are silent. Help us to persevere in prayer as we seek to understand Your overall plan in these troubling matters. And when we don’t understand Your plan help us to trust You because faith that cannot be tested is faith that cannot be trusted. Thank You Lord and in Jesus name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, through my faith in You and Your Word, I learn that the ways of righteousness are plain and safe and in them we that believe, may enjoy a holy security. The ways of wickedness, are dangerous and those who indulge themselves in sin are fitting themselves for destruction. Lord, help me to be Your hand extended to those in need. We so often complain about our own needs but in reality much of our own needs are met as we reach out to others in need. Your Scripture declares, “Those who refresh others will themselves be refreshed.” Help us not to put off that which You lay upon our hearts. May our gentle and loving touch be the finger of God reaching down from heaven to earth. We were created in Your image and we desire to portray Your loving character as well. In the Holy name of Jesus I ask and pray. Amen Heavenly Father, we know that “the prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective.” Help us, Lord to take refuge wholly in Christ’s finished work, so we live a life of hope sure and steadfast leading us heavenward. Help us to know that as we pray we can trust You to hear and answer our prayer in Your time and in Your way. We want to also remember that our time in prayer is not just for the benefit of those whom we pray for, but it is also powerful and effective in our personal relationship with You. Keep us humble, faithful and ever-trusting. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen. |
