Can I Pray??
I don't know who needs this tonight, but I'm going to pray for you the same way I'm praying for myself.Father God,
Lord, I'm not asking for the easy route.
I know that's not how growth works.I know that's not how faith is built.I know that's not how You shape us.
But Father, I am asking You to keep my mind.
Don't let me lose my way in the middle of the battle.
Don't let disappointment make me bitter.Don't let waiting make me wander.Don't let loneliness make me settle.Don't let exhaustion make me quit.
Keep me.
Your Word says You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on You.
So tonight, I'm seeking what You promised.
You promised to lead me beside still waters.
Lead me there.
Because my mind has been Loud. My heart has been heavy.And my soul is tired.
But You promised to restore my soul.
And I believe You.
Even when I don't see it yet.
Even when the evidence hasn't shown up yet.
Even when my circumstances are trying to tell a different story.
I choose Your Word over what I see.
I stand on Your Word for myself.
I stand on Your Word for my children.
I stand on Your Word for my finances.
I declare that lack is not my portion.
I declare provision over my household.
I declare wisdom over every financial decision.
I declare that my barns are full and my cup is running over.
I thank You that You are teaching me how to steward what You place in my hands.
And Father, when loneliness tries to visit me, remind me of Your promise.
You said You would never leave me.
You said You would never forsake me.
So even when the room feels empty, I am not alone.
Even when I feel unseen, I am not forgotten.
Even when I feel weak, I am still carried by You.
Tonight I lift my eyes to the hills.
My help is not coming from people. My help is not coming from circumstances. My help is not coming from my own strength.
My help comes from the Lord.
The Maker of heaven and earth.
The God who has never failed.
The God who has never broken a promise.
The God who is writing a story bigger than what I can currently see.
So I will rest.
I will trust.
I will stand.
And I will not move from what You said.
Because if You promised it, You will perform it.
In Jesus' mighty name,
Amen.
