But you, OLORD, are a shield around me; you are my glory, the one who holds my head high. – Psalm 3:3 (NLT)
Almighty God, we can only begin to fathom your power. We see the grandeur and scope of creation and marvel that you could make all of this, even out of nothing. Your creation is marvelous and incomprehensible, O Lord. As one who has been given a measure of power in this life, help me to see it clearly and acknowledge it honestly. May I see my power in the light of your inestimable might. May I exercise my power as one who bows in worship before you first of all. May I use the power you have entrusted to me for your work, your justice, and your glory. Lord, speak to me, that I may speak In living echoes of Your tone.
In my times of need help me to learn to cast all my cares upon You. Help me to realize that I cannot get through many of the situations that I face on my own strength and that I need your strong and faithful hand. Give me also a heart that cares for others as Your representative in their time of need. Father in heaven, I dedicate everything that I have to You. Show me how I can be a blessing to others today. Thank You Lord for Your abundant provision in every area of my life
Abba Father, I thank You for setting me free from condemnation. Thank You for believing in me and filling me with Your vision for my life. Help me to see my life the way You see it. All praise, glory, and honor be to you, King of kings and Lord of lords! Amen.
I will give you a peaceful sleep surrounded by safety. God Promises that He will peace and watch over us.
There are many who say, “Who will show us any good?” Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us. You have put gladness in my heart, More than in the season that their grain and wine increased. I will both lie down in peace, and sleep; For You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety. (Psalm 4:8)
If we do not abide in prayer, we will abide in temptation. Let this be one aspect of our daily intercession: “God, preserve my soul, and keep my heart and all its ways so that I will not be entangled.” When this is true in our lives, a passing temptation will not overcome us. We will remain free while others lie in bondage.
