~ Prayer ~
Father,
Help me to be confident that I will see Your Goodness, in the land of the living.
Help me to wait for You.
Help me to be strong.
And take heart.
And to wait.
I ask that my life would increasingly become a proclamation
of Your Greatness and Your Goodness.
Make me fearless in the face of trials.
Strengthen me, I pray, to stand firm and release my lips to worship You - for You Are great and awesome, O GOD! You alone are GOD, Creator of Heaven and earth; and I join with all creation, and praise Your Holy Name!
Holy! Holy! Holy!
Lord GOD Almighty, who always has always been,
who is here right now, and who is coming!
Forgive me for withholding my praise and adoration, for sometimes being silent, and even sullen; and for those times where I have lost sight of Your Greatness and Glory.
For in doing so - in that moment - I allowed You to become small in my eyes, and often took situations and concerns into my own hands, instead of trusting You.
Father GOD, You have said that "the one who trusts in man, and depends on the arm of flesh, for his strength is cursed." Father, forgive me for all of the ways that I have trusted in others, or my own strength, instead of trusting You.
Increase my faith, Lord. May I become like a tree planted by the water that does not fear when heat comes; but whose leaves are always green.
I choose now to cast my cares on You . . . for the relationships in my life that are fractured, for those who are close to me who have yet to call on Your Name, for the weariness of finances, for the broken-ness of this world.
O Lord, increase my faith!
Enable me, by Your Holy Spirit, to speak Your Word
with great boldness - into every situation of my life
- regardless of what is happening around me.
I choose, again, to put my trust in You and to put my hope
in Your Unfailing Love, for You are my strength and
those who hope in You will not be disappointed.
Thank You that You are at work on my behalf!!
Thank You that nothing is too difficult for You!!
Nothing!!!!
In Your Son, Jesus’ Name.
Amen
