“In the morning, O Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before You and wait in expectation.”
This is the substance of my prayer today. I lay myself and my loved ones, one by one before You, asking for Your hand to be at work in each of these relationships, and in our circumstances.
Father, You know what each of us needs better than I do, so work in each of our lives to bring about Your perfect will.
Where we have set our own will in opposition to Yours – set us back on Your path.
Some of our bodies need a physical healing; some a spiritual one. Heal us.
Where there has been rebellion, turn our spirits to You.
Where our hearts are hard, soften them.
Give us Your help and direction.
Where there is disappointment or despair, give us a realization of Your blessings in our lives.
Where our troubles are the result of bad choices, show us those mistakes. Teach us to learn from them so they are not wasted.
Where we are wrestling with spiritual forces: rulers, principalities, authorities, and powers of this dark world and in the heavenly realms; destroy them Lord! Declare them as guilty O God! Let their intrigues and schemes be their downfall. Banish them for their sins and rebellion against You.
We take refuge in You, and in Your mighty power! You have the resources, the authority, and the power to achieve even more than I can ask or even imagine.
Spread Your protection over us. Surround us with Your favor as with a shield. I wait for Your hand to be made visible in the lives of my family and myself so that I can see and rejoice in You and sing for joy!
We love Your Name O Lord. Jehovah! Yahweh! Jesus! Messiah! For there is no other name by which we can be saved! Amen
