Faithful Father, thank you that you are my shield and my strength. Your word says that you give strength to the weary and increase the power of the weak. Please help me to experience your strength in the midst of my weakness. May Christ dwell in my heart through faith so that I, being rooted and grounded in love, may have the strength to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge. May I be filled with all the strength of you, my God. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord, Amen.
I'm tired, Lord. How long can this go on? I'm struggling. I'm weary.
Normally I come to you with praise and thankfulness, but right now my mind is so clouded that I can't begin to find the words to pray. All I know is that I feel like I'm drowning. I'm overwhelmed.
My hope and strength need to be renewed. Refresh my mind. Give me the perspective you want me to have. Help me to see your hand at work in this situation. Show me how to put my trust in you so my mind can find the rest it needs.
I know that I don't have enough strength and fortitude, but you do. Your strength is made perfect in my weakness. With you, I am strong. Please make that very real to me right now.
Help me focus on what you want me to do next, keeping my eyes fixed on you instead of what's going on all around me.
Help me remember that I'm a cherished child of the King of Kings. Speak peace to my mind. Calm my mind. Heal me of my weariness. Gently lead me out from under this heavy fog I feel like I'm in right now. This is hard and I need your help.
I pray the scripture Philippians 4:7 today, knowing that you will give me peace and guard my heart. Renew my mind. Guard my thoughts, Lord. Transform my thinking and the feelings I am experiencing right now.
Like what I read in Philippians 4:8, help me give my attention to things that are true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, and praiseworthy. Help me meditate on these things throughout the day, and also to take captive any thoughts that are working against me and not from you.
Thank you for the mercies you make new every morning for me, and help me to rejoice in you today. You are holy, righteous, gracious, and powerful. Thank you for giving me a divine peace. Thank you for loving me, giving me rest, removing my weariness, and bringing strength to my mind today.
In Jesus name, amen.
Gracious Father, this was one of the first Scriptures I memorized as a young believer, yet reading it today is like finding a new treasure in an old field. That's one of the things I most love about your Word. It's never antiquated or redundant but always vintage and ever new. You're the God who speaks in specifics and without stuttering. You're the Father who knows what we need even before we ask, and you provide before we ask.
This passage from Isaiah is underlined multiple times in my favorite Bible, and for good reason. It reminds me that you're not like me, in so many ways. You never get tired or weary. I do and I am. Accepting limitations, finiteness, and weakness has never been one of my strengths. But I must. Since youths grow tired and weary and young men stumble and fall, why do I think I'm exempt from running on empty and hitting a wall?
Father, I'm not asking to soar like an eagle, as cool as that might be, and I'm not seeking to run like a marathoner, though I'd love the legs and lungs to do so. Just walking upright with a renewed heart, a steady gait and replenished energy will be enough.
My hope is in you, Abba, Father, for you promise daily mercies, steadfast love and sufficient grace. I'm not depleted, though I'm heading in that direction. I'm not medicating in destructive ways, though tempted at times. I'm not depressed, but have enough of the blues and blahs to take my condition seriously. I look to you for all the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical strength I need. The next few months are going to really busy. Send your Spirit. Please grant me good sleep and real Sabbath.
Because Jesus embraced the ultimate weakness and weariness of the cross, I'm confident of your burden-bearing love. You are the perfect, present and persistent Father. I may be weary in my servanthood, but I'm secure in my sonship. Nothing can separate me from your love. So very Amen I pray in Jesus' tender and triumphant name.
"Dear God,
Thank you for reminding us in your Word that we do not face the storms alone, but you are always with us. Whispering calm. Speaking peace. Bringing rest to our souls.
This world feels like a hard place some days; it's hurting and broken. We pray for those who are facing deep losses right now, for the times that grief has covered us all. Please comfort us through the painful seasons, surrounding those we love with your huge peace and the reassuring presence of your Holy Spirit.
We confess our need for you. We ask you to forgive us for trying to figure everything out on our own, for not trusting that you are more than able and powerful to work on our behalf. Forgive us for picking back up what we already determined to lay down at your feet. Give us the ability to trust you more, give us hearts that find rest in your presence. Give us the wisdom to seek peace and pursue it, remembering that it's only to be found in you.
Thank you for the promise that your yoke is easy, and your burden is light. Thank you that you care for us so incredibly and that the peace of your loving presence guards and protects our hearts and minds in you. Thank you that we never have to walk in fear or live constantly in these overwhelmed cycles of worry and stress.
Help us to keep our eyes on you, and to see when another soul around us needs to be encouraged. Help us to be faithful to carry one another's burdens, remembering that we're all in this life together, and there's such great power in unity and love.
Thank you that you are the soul refresher, the One who brings us rest, lifts our burdens, and gives peace. Thank you that you renew our strength and encourage our weary hearts. Thank you that you know our needs before we even ask you, that you know our thoughts, and all that troubles us today.
We ask you to please bring us into seasons of refreshing from your Spirit, that you would draw us closer to your presence as we seek to follow you. Help us to remember what's most important in this world, and what's not. Teach us to hold on to what matters, and to better know how to let go of what doesn't.
Thank you for the gift of Jesus and the freedom He brings. For no matter what we go through in this life, or what we're up against today, we never have to be shaken. You hold us secure, and we're kept safe with you.
We love you Lord. We need you today, to once again lift from our hearts this heaviness and constant burden, as only you are able. And help us to find rest and hope in you again.
In Jesus' Name,
Amen."
Dear God,
The battle feels intense some days. We get tired and weak, weary and worn. It's hard to keep going in the face of defeat. But help us to remember that you will never leave us, that you're our Refuge and our Strength, an ever-present help in trouble. We know that the enemy wouldn't be fighting so hard against us, if we weren't making a difference for your Kingdom. He wouldn't be trying so hard to stop us, if he didn't think you had so much good still in store. Remind us that the battle belongs to you, and whatever we're up against can be taken down in one fail swoop by your Mighty Hand. Help us to trust you more, to never waste time spinning our wheels and wrestling or fighting in our strength. Please forgive us Lord for the times we've failed to lift our hands to you, for the days we've forgotten to come to you first. Fill us with the Power of your Holy Spirit this day. Fill us with your joy, fill us with your wisdom and discernment, fill us with constant reminders that Your Presence will go with us, and you will give us rest.
Thank you for the victories in our lives, that have no explanation except, God did this. We give you the glory and honor for all that you're doing in our lives every day, even in the times we can't see it all, or understand your ways.
Help us to keep our eyes on you. Help us to see when another soul around us needs to be encouraged too. Help us to be faithful to carry one another's burdens, remembering that we're all in this life together, and there's great power in unity.
We love you and we need you. We lift up our hearts and hands to worship you. Thank you that your banner over us is love.
In the Mighty Name of Jesus we pray,
Amen.

Loving God,
I come to you to seek for forgiveness of all my sins and wrongdoings of the past, for all the hurting, that I have done to others, to my family, and people that have been affected by my harsh behavior and unkind words, Please give them a forgiving heart as I have forgiven them too. Please forgive me of my wrongs and free me from worries of the mind and restless heart. Loving God forgive me.
I seek you Dear Jesus, to bestow upon me your healing hands. Heal me from within. Be with me in my sleep and cast away the demons that comes in my dreams. Cast away all the doubts and fears that I have, so that I may be able to love again the ones that I have hurt the most, my family. Lord, give me strength, happiness, wealth of the heart and free from ills
Give me the strength and confidence that all my everyday task are done with a glorious heart and ease of mind
