Prayer For Help In Times Of Trouble
Graciously loving Father, you hear the prayers of your people. Please turn your ear to my cry for help. As I seek you, would you answer and deliver me from all my fears. The fears that threaten to overwhelm me don't stand a chance in the light of your loving power. When I feel out of control, remind me that you are in control. You make all things work together for my good even when I don't understand how that could be possible. Increase my faith in you. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Lord, my rock and redeemer, you know everything about me. You have rescued me from my sin, you have called me by name. I belong to you. As I pass through the storms of life, you are with me. You say that I will not be overwhelmed in the flood or consumed by the fire. You are my Savior in every part of my life. You give me everything I need. The breath I use to pray this prayer is a gift from you. Help me rely on you. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Eternal Father, you know my past, present and future, nothing is unknown to you. When I worry about what is ahead of me, please calm my fears with the knowledge that you go before me. I will never be alone because you will always be with me. You have promised that you will not fail me or forsake me and you are faithful to keep all your promises. Take away my fear and replace it with faith in your unending love. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Everlasting God, you never fail to help your people. Throughout history we see you acting in love towards your children. When they cry out to you, you hear and respond. When they fail and turn away from you, you do not turn your back on them. In this time of trouble, give me a steadfast mind and fill me with peace as I put my trust in you. With you, I will not crumble like a house built on sand but I will stand firm with my feet on you, the everlasting rock. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Heavenly Father, you are my strength and my song. You are worthy of all my praise, no matter what my circumstances are. When I look to Jesus' death and resurrection I see the greatest victory that has already been won on my behalf. I pray that I would find confidence in that victory and that I would live my life in the light of your love, whatever may be happening around me. Help me, Father. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Creator God, your hand threw the stars into space and the same hand reaches down to me with a gentle touch. I don't have the strength to deal with the situation I am facing, please uphold me with your righteous right hand. I don't know what to do, please help me. You say that I do not need to be afraid or dismayed because you are my God and you are with me. Help me to know your presence in the midst of my circumstances and draw strength from you. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
Lord Jesus Christ, you are the name above every other name. Your name is like a fortified tower in which I can find safety and security. When I am troubled, I can find peace in your name.

Your name is beautiful, Lord, help me to rely on you. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
