Daily Prayer (1)

Father, I thank you for loving me.  I thank you for protecting me and my family.  Lord I thank you for being the fence that surrounds us by day and by night. You father are a good God and worthy to be praised.  You alone are Holy high and lifted up.  Father I ask that you open our eyes to the areas within us that are not pleasing to you.  Help us be receptive to your gentle voice of guidance and obedient in changing the things that are not pleasing to you.  Father we want to be a light in this world totally living our lives in a manner that glorifies you. You said that our steps are ordered by you and that you would lead us in the way in which we should go, so we will continue to look to you dear Jesus. Fill us with the wisdom and knowledge that comes from on high. You said that if we ask you would grant it to us, so father we will continue to look to you for guidance, and correction realizing that is because of your great love for us your purpose will be fulfilled through us.
 In Jesus name I pray.

Peace (1)

In you dear Father peace resides.  Lord we look to you to fill us with your peace.  A peace that passes all understanding and earthly knowledge. A peace that calms us in the midst of the whirlwind that surrounds us and tries to take our focus off of you. Father we thank you for being a very present help in times of trouble and Lord we also thank you for your presence in times of happiness and joy.  Lord we thank you for being true to your word and for never leaving or forsaking us.   Father we thank you for life and for your constant guidance.  Lord you are not the author of confusion therefore we ask you to help us strip away the things in our lives that are not of you so that we can see and hear you clearly.  Father we want to walk the path you'd have us to take and regardless of our circumstances we want to live in your presence surrounded by your peace.  In Jesus name I pray.  Amen.

Prayer of distress (1)

Lord Jesus, my heart is heavy as my dreams appear to be shattering before my face.  As I long for honesty and to be with individuals I can trust the principalities and rulers of ages continue to drive negatively in those I love.  Help me to stand in the midst of my sorrow knowing that my future and hope resides in you. You said that we are to cast our cares on you because you care for our soul.  Father I am casting my cares on you. I am leaving my burdens and anxiety in your hands because I know you are well able to handle them. My hope is in only you Lord, and because you are the center of my hope I know you will work every thing out for good.  Father I thank you in advance for answering my prayer and guiding me in the path you'd have me to go.  In Jesus name I pray.
