Dear Heavenly Father, we get so tired with the many challenges we face. We need to wait on You, but our ability to hold on seems so weak. Please help us to wait on You. We need Your strength to do what is needed. As we gain strength, we will praise Your name even more.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your goodness and loyal love. We pray for Your deliverance. Rescue us from the enemies who want to silence us. Then we will be able to continue our declaration of Your goodness.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your perfect example of faithfulness. Please help us to remember that You value faithfulness in the small things as well as the big. We need Your help in all things. Please help us to see our dishonesty and make corrections. Faithfulness honors You and we want to glorify Your name.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the many You have saved by faith in Jesus Christ. Please help us to seek the things above. We need Your help to put what is most important first. This earth has many distractions and we are prone to fall into what is not worth Your purpose for us. Thank You for the reminder that our lives are permanently a part of Christ’s. We praise You for Your wonderful gift of salvation.
Dear Heavenly Father, this commandment seems difficult. You love perfectly. You send us the blessings of sunsets and special times with friends. You also allow challenges like health issues and human conflict. All of those are a part of Your love. We often think of love as the positives of a hug, a special gift, or a positive interaction. Sometimes we need to have a tough conversation or show someone how they are wrong. We often don’t know what love really looks like in this situation. Please guide our study of Your Word to learn more about how You love so we can imitate that.
