Prayer For Strength Of Faith During Difficult Times
Dear Heavenly Father, Your ways are higher than my ways. I pray for power and strength to surrender my way and follow your best way. I trust You Lord.
In Jesus Christ Name I pray. Amen.
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank You for your good thoughts about me. May my thoughts reflect your truth and nothing else. When I have a negative thought, I pray for your help to quickly recognize it and that You would empower me to focus on what is true, pure, and lovely. Thank You Lord.
In Jesus Christ Name I pray, Amen.
Heavenly Father, please strengthen our hearts, and remind us to encourage one another when the troubles of life start to overwhelm us. Please guard our hearts from depression. Give us the strength up to rise up each day and fight against the struggles which seek to weigh us down. Amen.
I will run to you, Lord, whenever I feel afraid. I know your hand will protect me and lead me into your shadow, Almighty God, where I can rest and be safe. I know that bad things can happen to all of us, but you are always there to bring good out of it. And you've promised me that no one can harm my spirit/soulthe innermost part of me that you've destined for eternity. Because I belong to you, you will give me safe passageall the way to my eternal home.
But while I'm still living in my temporary house on earth, I pray you will not only guard my heart, but also my mind from foolish thoughts and actions. Expose the lies that try to twist the truth. Give me discernment, Lord, and wisdom for the good times, the hard times, and all the in-between-times. Let me never leave home without your protection and without the spiritual armor you've given me.
I place my trust and dependence on you, today, Lord. Like the commander of a great army, you are in control, and you will go to any lengths to insure the safety of those under your wing of protection. I believe you want good, not harm for my life. And I am asking that you will replace fear with the confident assurance that you are always here with me, protecting me from harm. Others may try to hurt my body, Lord. But they can never destroy my soul. I'm safe with you, Jesus.
In Jesus' precious name,
Amen
Lord Jesus,
The world is changing so fast. Every day the media relays tales of those who disregard law, devise evil, and destroy both people and property. And because of what's happening, fear sometimes rises up in my heartfor me, for those I love, and for people everywhere. Yet I know you are in control.
I ask you today for your supernatural protection, Lordboth personally and globally. Please station angels around my home and family to guard them from danger. Lead us away from temptation, and help us to run from the presence of questionable activities or harmful influences. When we're weak, help us to look up to you and to hold on tight to the truth that you love us and want the best for us.
In Jesus' precious name,
Amen
Dear God,
Thank you for helping us to make it through this difficult year. Thank you that you've carried us through the uncertainty of deep waters, through the flames of trials, and through the pain of hard losses. We are constantly aware of how much we need you, your grace, your strength, your power working through even the toughest days.
Help us to keep our focus first on you this season. Please forgive us for giving too much time and attention to other things, for looking to other people before coming to you first. Help us to reflect again, on you. Thank you that you came to give new life, peace, hope, and joy. Thank you that your power is made perfect in our weakness.
Help us to remember that the gift of Christ, Immanuel, is our greatest treasure. Fill us with your joy and the peace of your Spirit. Direct our hearts and minds towards you. Thank you for your reminder that both in seasons of celebration and in seasons of brokenness, you're still with us. For you never leave us. Thank you for your daily powerful Presence in our lives, that we can be assured your heart is towards us, your eyes are over us, and your ears are open to our prayers. Thank you that you surround us with favor as with a shield, and we are safe in your care.
We choose to press in close to you today, and keep you first in our hearts and lives. Without you we would surely fail, but with you, there is great hope. Thank you for your healing power, thank you for bringing us into this new season up ahead. We look forward to all that You still have in store.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen.
Father, I come to you worn and weary from the hard times I have walked through recently. I come to you seeking your shelter where I know I can find security and rest in your shadow.
Father, you are mighty. I know my circumstances are no match for Your great power. Thank You that You are my safe place.
Thank You that I am always welcome beneath Your wings. Thank You for being a fortress I can trust.
Father, I know you can save me from these trials. I will wait patiently for You to help me work things out for my good.
You have always been faithful to me. I will rest in Your faithfulness. Amen.
Father, thank You that even when all others leave and abandon me, You remain.
Thank You that even when the ones I thought would be around forever choose to go, I can trust that you will stand with me.
Father, I come to You with my cares and my worries concerning this trial I am facing.
Would You remind me that I am not alone? Would You tell me that you care about this and its outcome?
Father, I thank You for standing with me, and I receive your strength to stand another day.
Thank you that I can trust you to rescue me from this and every trial I will face in this life. Amen.
