Prayer: Trusting in God’s Promises
Dear Heavenly Father,
As I come before you today, I humbly acknowledge that I am struggling with fears and anxieties that threaten to consume me. Lord, I know that your Word tells me not to be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving, to let my requests be made known to you. Help me, Lord, to trust in your promises and to surrender my fears and worries to you.
– Lord, thank you for being my rock and my refuge, my strength and my shield in times of trouble.
– Thank you for your promise that you will never leave me nor forsake me, that I can cast all my anxieties on you because you care for me.
– Help me to fix my eyes on you, to meditate on your Word day and night, so that I may be like a tree planted by streams of water, bearing fruit in season and prospering in all I do.
Lord, I pray for your peace that surpasses all understanding to guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus. Fill me with your Holy Spirit, that I may walk in faith, not in fear, and that I may experience the fullness of joy that comes from knowing you.
In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
