“Hear my prayer, O Lord, and answer me. Thank You for guarding my life. Father, I devote that life to You. You are my God and I am Your servant who trusts You.”
Father, there are so many things I am trusting You for right now. Things that I cannot see how, and have no evidence will ever happen. I guess that’s what faith and trust are all about: believing in what is not yet seen. There are so many hopes and dreams I have that may never come true. Yet I completely trust that if they are what is best for me or my family, You will bring them to be. Because You make Your servant glad, and bring me joy! And out of that abundance, I will give glory to Your name.
Lord let me learn from the blind beggar. First, when he heard You were passing by, he knew You could heal him. Father, when I have a need, let me come straight to You with it confident that You have the desire and the power to help. And remind me to be persistent like he was.
Next, when You asked, he knew exactly what he wanted. Help me see my need for what it is, not hide it or deny it.
And last, when You answer my prayer, my request, let other people see it and praise You!
I praise You Lord, with all my heart, as I bring my requests to You. I ask for Your strength when I am under attack. When I am discouraged let me feel Your presence. Increase my faith as I learn truth from Your Word and apply it to my life. Teach me Your way. Help me walk in Your truth. Let me always honor and revere You.
Thank You that I can call on You when I am in trouble. I know You will answer me. For all this and more, I thank You Lord. Amen
