Faithful

Dear lord,
Thank you for giving me the strength to go to church yesterday. Thank you for helping me overcome a headache and dizziness. Lord you took the wheel when I was too tired to drive. You helped me and lead me to a great class that answered my questions head on.
Father you help me every day. Give me the grace to see it. You gave me confidence and courage when supervisors popped in my class. I stayed up late Tuesday night in church even though I woke up at 1:30am and there was a bad storm. Wow god you are awesome, thank you

Dear god,
Today was hard. I took my focus off you and placed it on my problems. Because of this, I feel so drained, miserable, down and ready to explode. Lord I don’t know how to fix my marriage. I don’t know what to say or do to get my point across. I don’t know or understand my husband. But you do. You know everything about the two of us. Fix it father. Help me heal and be a blessing. Lord I’m not bipolar, demon possessed or crazy, like he calls me. Change me lord so I can be the person you want me to be. Please help me stay in this marriage and bless it lord. Make it the type that sets an example for our son. Let it be an example for others. Use it to glorify your name. Make it strong and holy. Help me see it through your eyes. Forgive me for causing pain in my husbands life. Teach me your ways. Help me live with a quite and gentle spirit.

Prayer for today

Lord transform me. Father you are doing amazing things in my life. I ask that you never let me take that for granted. Help me to appreciate and celebrate you more as I walk from glory to glory.
Help me dwell on the good. Help me see how your hand is working in my life. Bless me with knowledge, wisdom and strength.
As I walk as a sheep amongst wolves, I pray for your divine protection. Be a shield around me. Shield my heart, mind and soul from danger, deception, fear, sin, anxiety, illness, wrong thinking, and anything else that attacks me.
May the words out of my mouth honor and bless your name. May I work to please you. May you bless my marriage with riches no one has ever seen. May the future be filled with joy, hope, peace and love. In Jesus name, amen

Remember him in trouble

Father God,
May my tongue always bless your name. I pray with all my heart that each trial brings me closer to your heart. When I’m overwhelmed with the troubles of this world, when I’m too sick to have faith, or when my hopes and dreams are shattered, help me remember the truth about you. Remind me that I’m in the palm of your hand. Jesus, you are always the same: yesterday, today and tomorrow. You never change. So when I’m consumed with fear and lose my way to you, redirect my steps. Remind me of how much you love me. Give me the strength to hold on and fight the good fight. Keep me in your presence. Heal me. Forgive me. Bless me. Shower me with favor. Consume me with your unfailing love. Be a shield of protection around me. Be the strength of my life. In Jesus name, amen

Questions

Life is hard. Sharing your life with another person is challenging and hard work, especially when that person doesn’t understand you. Where do you go when your spouse doesn’t understand you? What do you do when you try to talk about things only to end up fighting and making things worse? What happens when you can no longer fix it and no longer wish to? When life gets hard and the enemy keeps telling
You to separate, what do you do? Do you listen and give up? Where’s god? Why is he silent sometimes? Doesn’t he care? Does any one care?

From the heart

Father,
You are wonderful. I pray and hope that you will help me set my mind on the important things in life. Father let my heart desire you more and more. Help me to reach your promises. Lord I want to know what it’s like to have the spirit of love, power and a sound mind. Lord I pray that the prince of peace will provide peace in my life. I pray to learn how to be anxious for nothing but to acknowledge you and give you thanks in everything. Lord remind me that I have the mind of Christ when my thoughts drift or displease you. Let me really know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Help me achieve remarkable faith in Jesus. Let me experience faith that moves mountains. May I know what true love is. Help me see myself as you see me. May I know you better each and everyday. May my walk with you become stronger by the minute. Help me to honor and thank you in everything! Amen

Dear God,
Thank you for being with me today. Father even though my morning was rough, you were faithful when I asked for your help. I’m sorry for sinning and not listening to you today. Please forgive me for all the wrong I’ve done. Help me to be a better person from this moment on. Bless me with your peace, joy and love. Help me to be strong in you. Your mercy and grace are so evident in my life. I humbly come to you in Jesus name amen.
