A Prayer for Strength

- JaclynPalmer Leave a comment

Sweet Heavenly Father,

Lord, I am on my knees seeking strength from you. I seek not just for myself but for so many friends etched on my heart, for those across our nation, and for Yours around Your beautifully created world.

Father, many of us are tired.

We are drained of our physical strength due to health and due to the fight that is happening, visible and invisible. We stand armed in your strength, then we fall before You weak and in need of Your strength yet again. Thank you for faithfully filling us when we need it. Thank you for holding us when we need that rest. Thank you for understanding our flesh and for giving us Your Spirit.

How spoiled we are by Your love!

Lord God, may I ask for Your Word to be imprinted on our minds right now. Lord, that the Truth, the Life, the Way that each of us need right now in our individual path will be imprinted on our minds. Father, that we will see, that we will hear, that we will breathe in the Word you speak over us right now.

Selah.

Wherever she may be, I pray your daughter will find rest and healing and strength in You and in Your grounded and most faithful Truth this very moment.

In the name of Jesus Christ, our Risen Savior, I pray these things over myself and over the sweet friend that is praying with me through these simple words.

Pour over us Your love, Your presence, Your strength!

1 John 4:8 slips so sweetly into my mind and causes my heart to skip a beat. Thank you, Lord God, for the concrete truth of Your love!

God, in light of 1 John 4:8, I do pray for the person that does not know Your love. I pray the knowledge of who You are will resonate within her. I pray she will grasp the love in which you freely gift her through the life and death of Your Son, Jesus Christ.

I pray her eyes will be opened to the power of Jesus Christ. That she will know and that she will believe that Jesus died on the cross for her sins, that He was buried in the grave, and that Jesus Christ rose again on the third day just as it was proclaimed in Scripture.

Father, I pray salvation upon her heart as she believes in Your Son and as she proclaims with her mouth that You alone are God, the very God who loves her so personally, so faithfully.

Friend, if you are hearing about Jesus for the first time today will you join me here. I would love to hear from you. ❤️

Hello 😘 I am praying for you.

Hello, It’s been five months since I sat and penned a prayer. Five beautiful months of study and summertime. I’ll tell you a bit about that study soon enough. First let me simply say, I prayed for you today.

This morning, before engaging in a fresh fall that sits before us, I prayed over my email subscriber list. How precious that was! To see names of familiar faces and unknown sisters, childhood friends and next door neighbors, girls I haven’t seen in years and girls I saw yesterday, known and unknown prayer requests – How full is my heart!

I pray God the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ will bless you with all spiritual blessings this day. That He will fill you with the fullness of His wisdom and knowledge. That He will walk with you throughout your day in both grace and peace. I pray you will feel the presence of His Holy Spirit in you today. I pray His strength -to overcome whatever you are facing right now- will be the joy on your heart today.

Sweet friend, I pray you will boldly share that prayer on your heart with a friend today. Don’t walk alone in the weight that presses within your soul. There is a promised rest when we allow another person to carry our prayer to God in the name of Jesus Christ.

And that praise that causes your whole face to light up, share that with another today! May the joy upon your heart uplift and strengthen your friend today.

Jesus immediately reached out his hand and took hold of him (Peter), saying to him, “O you of little faith, why do you doubt?” And when they (Jesus & Peter) got into the boat, the wind ceased. And those in the boat worshipped him, saying, “Truly you are the Son of God.” –Matthew 14:31-33

Prayers and Praises happen in the midst! Be present. Pray. Praise!

Covering you in prayer,

Jaclyn

A Morning Praise for the Love of Jesus

Jesus,

You are good. All morning I have been anxious to come to your feet to simply tell you exactly that. It’s funny because my heart has been expressing this truth to you throughout my morning, but there’s something grand about sitting at your feet telling you {in word} how good you are.

You are so faithful. You are mine. You wake me in the morning and whisper truth upon my heart. Lord, what a precious way to wake up. You sing over me as I kickstart my day with my little routine. All the while I hear your worship flood my soul. I postpone my time with you due to “this or that” and you join me in the This and in the That. Reminding me always that you are with me. You are here. You are in the mundane and in the schedule and in the busy and in the calm. Oh, how ever faithful you are! Oh, that you are mine!

You are my Father and I love your faithful love, your strong arms.

You are my God and I love your voice, your words, your truth.

You are my Lord and I cling to your law; I desire to behold your beauty and to obey your commandments of love.

Jesus, that Your love over me will pour out of me. I pray I will not be selfish with your love. I pray I will not be “choosy” with your love. Jesus, I pray your love will fall back at your feet – with all my heart and with all my soul and with all my mind.

Father, what a big command given to us by our Savior! Oh, that my heart, my soul, and my mind will comprehend the beauty of this command!

And, Jesus, I pray your love will lift up the brother and the sister I get to do life with today. Go before my day. Set my heart to speak your words upon them. And open my ears to receive your love from them.

You have given us a family in God. Thank you for this sweet gift of opportune love!

Jesus,

You, my precious Lord, are good.

Amen

*Matthew 22:36-40 💞
