Prayers

Give me the grace to live this life. I am weighed down by this trial. And your answer to my prayer troubles me. My life is riddled with difficulties and I am without what I used to have. Should I go on when I can do something about this? Yet this has been a long labour conducted unwaveringly. For many years I was frustrated by no obvious gains. But now after many years, the work seems to be getting results. Yet I am not sure. Is this the fruit that I was meant to bear? My doubts are aimed at the root of my plant. So come to my rescue today. Set me right. Steady my mind. Strengthen my heart. And give me the grace to live this life as you want me to live it.

O God, please restore order in my house. Let your example of love shine before us and show us the way to your dwelling place. Let us resolve to love one another just as you loved us. Let us forgive one another just as you forgave your killers on the cross. Let us not fight worthless battles seeking our own way. Let us not speak bitter, hateful words that can only destroy and kindle the worst in others. Teach us how to overcome evil with good. O God, please fight our battles for us. Let us learn to rest in you.

O please give me the mind to seek you today. Give me the eyes to see your many wonderful works. Give me the desire to see what you have made with joy and love. Give me a heart overflowing with gratitude for the gift of life. O Lord, even the shortest life on earth is better than not having lived at all.

Friend, may God be with you today. May he protect you from all evil. May he grant you his desires and enable you to live life to the full. May you be happy today and may people know the reason for your happiness.

Today pray for a drunkard who cannot quit drinking. Pray for an addict who cannot say no to the thing that entices him. Pray for a man who has been given a gift but cannot give it. Pray for a man who is determined to ruin himself because he cannot see a way out. Pray for his family whose lives have turned into hell as a result of his violence. Pray that they will still hope for a miracle. Pray that this man may see Jesus and walk into his welcoming arms. Pray that he and his family may find lasting peace.

I Remember My Brothers And Sisters In Trouble

I remember my brothers and sisters in trouble. Some of them are in great trouble and in great need. God, please supply their needs and rescue them from their dangers. Today when I pray, let me remember those who are in greater suffering and in greater need than I am. Lord, rush to your children who are hurting badly. Respond quickly to their cries for help. Please attend to those who are suffering more than I. You may keep me waiting as long as You see fit. And when the day comes when You are ready to answer my prayer, I shall be glad to receive your answer. For I trust You Lord. I respect your timing. I am confident that You will not forget even a single child of yours, even me for I am one of your own. I thank You today O Lord for your great faithfulness. Please let me receive your gracious blessing today. Let all your children receive your blessing today. Amen.

God, Remember Your Servants Today

Let God be worshipped today. Let the people of God celebrate their God today. Let the people of God not fail to bless their God today. Let them not forget His benefits.

Let God not forget His people today. Let Him not forget to bless His people today, especially those who cry out to Him, especially those who have asked Him, especially those who have knocked repetitively on His door. May God not forget His people. May God respond to the prayers of His people.

May the people who serve God do so sincerely. May they serve Him wholeheartedly. May God remember His servants today. May God remember their prayers. And may God provide for all His people. May God provide for His servants, who look to Him, who are dependent on Him. May God not forget His servants today. This is my prayer. Amen

Lord, Remember Me Today

O God, I have come so far. Don’t leave me here right in the middle of nowhere. Don’t forsake me now. Forgive me for what I have not done. Forgive me for what I have thought and what I have considered in a manner that is offensive to you. Remember that I love you. Remember that I care about you. Remember that I want to know you. And remember that I want to serve you.

Remember the time when I pledged my servitude to you as a child. Remember that dream in which you appeared and remember my response. O Lord, remember today. Remember me. I’m in a dry place. I’m in a lonely place. I need your care. I need your support. I need your love today. Show me your love today O Lord.

42 years You have walked with me. Even when I did not know that You were beside me You walked with me.  You walked with me, guiding me, helping me, loving me, even when I didn’t love You. Today remember me. Remember the child who cried out to You. Remember the young man who did not think about You. Remember the man who spoke for You. Remember the man who spurned many things to know You. Remember me today O Lord. Don’t abandon me. Amen.

Prayer Before The New Year

Before the New Year began I said this prayer:

"O Lord, I'm grateful for this year, this year, which is passing away. This old year is passing away; a New Year is about to be born in our lives. Thank you for 2013. Thank you for all that we received from you. Psalm 103 begins in this way: "Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits:"

O Lord, thank you for all your benefits in the year 2013. How much we have received from you! Every day is a blessing. Every moment is a blessing. Every breath is a blessing. Every day of health is a blessing. Every friend we've made, every relationship in our lives is a blessing. Every opportunity to speak about your love, every opportunity to share your message is a blessing. And you gave me so many blessings. You gave my family so many blessings during this year. Thank you very much O Lord.

And as we usher in 2014, we say to you, O Lord, "Bless this year. May this year be a year of new opportunities, new ideas, new learning, new sharing, O Lord. Thank you Lord, thank you. Thank you for the New Year. Thank you for being in us. Thank you for persisting with us despite our faults, despite our mistakes, despite our sins. You continue to be with us. You continue to give us your light. We are so grateful. Thank you Lord. Thank you for this New Year. May you bless us and may you bless all your people in the world. May you bless all your children, as they look up to you right now in prayer and ask you to guide them in the coming year. May you guide us, O great Jehovah, as you have done all our lives. In Jesus name, in the Holy Spirit, we pray. Amen."

Prayer

A simple prayer that I will not fail to say today

Prayer

Lord, you are my Creator. I cannot live without you. My life comes from you. Thank you for keeping me alive. Thank you for keeping the world alive. Thank you for all that you have created in your love. I do not understand your ways. I do not even walk according to your ways. Forgive me Lord for my many sins. Despite my imperfections I believe that I am a child of God and that I have the mind of Jesus Christ. Thank you for giving me the Holy Spirit. I believe that I cannot pray to you without your Spirit stirring in me first.

I pray for myself and for all your children. Be our King O Lord. Let your will be done in our lives. Please reign on earth as you reign in heaven. Be kind to your children today O Lord. Supply our needs. We need you first. We need your Spirit. We need your love, your joy and your peace. Grant us our everyday needs. And give us your precious health. I pray for those who are specially needy and those who are extremely sick. I pray for all who call out to you. May you hear the cries of your people.

Help us forgive one another as you have graciously forgiven us. Soften our hard hearts, mellow our defiant spirits O God. Give us strength in times of trouble and help us resist temptation. Deliver us from evil: the evil in heaven and the evil on earth. O God you are our only hope. You are my only hope. Let everyone who calls out to you today be saved. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen
