Prayer about Strength
Introduction
Prayer is a profound communication between our souls and the divine. By praying, we tap into a well of serenity, wisdom and strength which is of immense spiritual benefit. Moreover, prayer carries an amazing power to bring about change, not only in the situations we face but also within our own hearts. It propels us towards enlightenment and empowers us in times of trials. It becomes the light at the end of the tunnel, promising hope and rejuvenation.
Prayer
Dear Lord, I come before you today with a yearning for strength in my heart. Life has its storms, and sometimes, I feel worn down by the waves. In those moments, remind me of the strength that resides within me, a strength that comes from You, the maker of heavens and earth. I lean on Your strength, for when I am weak, then I am strong.
God, grant me the fortitude to keep striving in the face of adversity. Infuse me with the resilience to take one more step even when everything in me opts to give up. Imbue me with the courage to face my trials with faith that You are with me, carrying me through the darkness, and leading me into the light. Divine, when the weight of my burdens seems unbearable, equip me with Your heavenly might to carry on.
Lord, not only strength for myself, but also the power to uplift others. Remind me to be a beacon of hope for those in need, that I may be an extension of Your love and kindness on this earth. This I ask with a humbled heart, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Conclusion
Our strengths are not solely our own. They are gifts from the divine, intentionally created and purposed. By acknowledging and seeking the divine for strength in prayer, we accept these gifts and allow them to become part of our journey. Like a stubborn coal turning into a diamond, we too, under so much pressure and against all odds, shine brightly with strength that is uniquely our own.
