Our Father,
Thank you for this opportunity to gather once again to join in prayer. Father, we thank you that our lives and our circumstances, are not in the hands of blind fate, but we are held firmly in the palm of your hand. It is impossible for you to forget us or to turn a blind eye to us. You know where we are always and you know exactly what we need and when we need it and you are always faithful to us...your heart is always for us...
Father, help us to make wise choices in our lives. Help us live with our eyes focused on you and eternity. Help us to be wise and discerning, so we are not caught unaware... help us to drown out the loudness of the world...the loudness of physical and emotional pain when it threatens to overwhelm us...the loudness of the enemy who taunts our minds with doubts and barrages us with what seems like an unrelenting stream of seemingly insurmountable trials and heartaches....help us Lord to hone in on your voice...may we be so sensitive to it that we can hear it like an animal that hears what humans can't hear. Father, we need your guidance in our lives...we need your direction...we need you to be the rock we cling to in this ever-changing world. Help us not to get caught up in all that is wrong with the world...we lift up the needs we see, but let us focus on you alone and not be consumed by worry, sadness and uncertainty.
Father, right where we are...right at this very moment, speak to our hearts. Just like a parent that soothes a child...speaking soft and gentle words of comfort and encouragement...reinforcing that they are safe because their parent has them securely in their loving embrace... nothing can get to the child through them... they are secure, loved and comforted just by being held by one who loves them and has their best interest at heart...may we feel like that with you now, Lord.
Wipe the tears from the heart-broken and grieving...hold the ill and injured and let them know that you are tending to them and...ease the fears, worries and anxieties of those who are scared and not knowing what to do or how to face or handle their trials and burdens...Oh, Abba, Father... our beloved, Heavenly Father... hold us close to you and may we all feel your nearness today. Fill us with your courage...be our strength...remind us of the joy of our salvation...remind us of that feeling we had when you entered our hearts and lives...we cling to you and your promises and we know that our hope is not misplaced by trusting in you.
Go before us this day, Lord. Protect our loved ones and meet their needs. Help us to stand fast against spiritual attacks and to remember we are not alone in anything we face and we can do all things through Christ. We love you Lord and we thank you in advance for meeting each need, spoken and unspoken. In the name of Jesus we ask these things, Amen
