Faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see.– Hebrews 11:1 (NLT)
Dearest loving Father in heaven, today I choose to release every care and concern into Your loving hands. I refuse to worry and choose to trust. Fill me with Your peace. Show me Your ways as I surrender every area of my heart and life to You. Lord, today I give You every frustration, every aggravation, every difficulty. I release total control into Your loving and able hands. Speak to my heart and give me Your peace. Show me Your love as I place my hope in You.
Help me, dear Lord, to bring my true self before you without feeling as if I have to clean myself up to impress you. Give me confidence to live in the messiness of a genuine relationship with you. Lord, when it seems as if you are not even hearing my prayers, remind me of your faithfulness in the past. Help me to persevere in prayer even when my faith falters. By your grace, may I trust you more and more each day.
Abba Father, show me those areas of bitterness and unforgiveness in my life. Help me to acknowledge them, own them and then give them back to You. Then Lord, in obedience and with Your strength, help me forgive each and every offense that You bring to my mind. Set me free Lord from the sin of unforgiveness. Remind me, Lord, that I am a Christian first and foremost. The causes I support are second to the fact that I follow Jesus Christ. Let Jesus rule in my heart, and lead me in the ways I should walk. Help me to be diligent in feeding on Your Word so the leaven of the Gospel will penetrate the hardness of my heart and make me pliable in Your hands. Give me the words and guidance to be Your representative to someone today. We ask this in the matchless name of Jesus Christ, Amen
Every promise that I make is true, for I do not lie or change My mind. God Promises His Promises Are Forever
God is not a man, that He should lie, Nor a son of man, that He should repent. Has He said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good? (Numbers 23:19)
The history of missions is a history of prayer. Everything vital to the success of the world’s evangelization hinges on prayer.
