Prayer for trials of life

Posted bydevotionsfordifficultdaysPosted inUncategorized

In quietness and trust shall be your confidence and strength. 

Isaiah 26:3-4

Father, the enemy temps me to doubt You, to question Your timing, Your goodness and even Your awareness of my circumstance. Words and phrases like, Frantic, Anxious, Striving, Worrying, Fearful, or “What if…?” and “Why?” attempt to pierce my soul like a poison dart. Forgive me for the times I’ve allowed them to penetrate, wreaking havoc within me. Cause me to be aware  and able to quickly discern the enemy’s lies, holding up my shield of faith as I wield the mighty sword of the Spirit of Your Word.

By the power of Your Holy Spirit I will be still before You and before the sea of my circumstances, in quietness and trust I shall be confident in You and Your faithfulness.  Exhaling the enemy’s fear inducing lies – I breath in deeply the truth that if You are for me who or what can be against me?  You hold my life in the palm of Your hand…is that not enough?

 I love You, Father. In the matchless name of my Lord Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
