And will not God grant justice to this chosen ones who cry to him day and night? Will he delay long in helping them? I tell you, he will quickly grant justice to them. ~ Luke 18:7-8a
Father God, I pray today with a lonely and heavy heart. I cry out to you, that you will hear my prayer, Father. I cry out to you, that you will sustain my need. I cry out to you, that you will be my all, Lord. Father, I am waring down Lord - I am tired and worn. Be my strength, my Heavenly Father - be my energy and my bones, continue holding me up. Grant justice to me Lord, the same way the unjust judge does in this parable taught by Jesus. Hear my voice calling you day and night, for often times the only strength I have is to cry out.
Let the wise listen to these proverbs and become even wiser. Let those with understanding receive guidance. ~ Proverbs 1:5, NLT
Father, allow me to understand, guide me to the words and actions that are in your will - show me through your grace and love who I am through you, Lord.
Lord, I am trying so hard to dare to be loving and different that what my natural self wants. I know that I fall daily into failure of my emotions and spirit, lift me up and forgive my sins in thoughts and actions. Forgive me for being my own self, instead of allowing you to live through me Lord. I do desire to be good, I do desire to be quite and pure. I just need more of you than me, Lord - press on my heart when I am choosing to follow myself and my schedule instead of your voice and your guidance Lord. I want to hear you Father - I want to hear your voice and feel your presence.
Lord, David and I are still struggling in our marriage. It feels like the moment I feel like things are getting better - the floor falls out from underneath me. I need kind words from him Father - I need kind touch and thoughts, to back up his statements of love. I feel so dark in my heart Lord - that I am doubting his intentions, that I am doubting his care for me. It's so hard to trust Lord! Guide me in forgiveness that is willing to trust again, guide him that he will give up on the lies and covering his paces. Father, touch his heart that he will know how lieing is wrong and that lieing is death. Cleanse his mind when he wants to lie, Father - don't allow it to come from his lips, give him strength to speak the truth and to honor you Lord.
Lord, I pray that you'll call Davids name so loudly Father - that he will not be able to turn from you. Let him know it is you, El Saddai, let him know how you care for him and desire to be him portion. I pray so deeply that David will accept his salvation from you Father - believing that through Jesus's blood that he will be accepted into Heaven despite all of his sin and despite any action that trys to earn his way. That it's by your grace and love only, that we are allowed to gladly know the future of our days. Help me to be what/who and where you need me to be - in order to be used as you need.
Awesome and loving God, I pray all these things with faith and honor to you - that you have control of all that I ask. And that you are eager to answer, when I call your name. I am knocking Lord - I am seeking Father - I am asking Lord (Matthew 7:7), in the name of Jesus' holy precious name. Amen
