Lord there are some of us whose families are struggling. Whether children who have gone wayward or husband and wives have split. Maybe our finances are dried up. Lord with fear, confusion, desperation we need Your strength and power in our lives. We need to sense Your comfort and peace. Wrap Your arms around us and fill us with Your love.

Dear Jesus, always remind us of who You are and what Your mighty hand can do. For You Lord are bigger than all of our problems and worries. For You are our Help.

Remind us oh Lord that it is a privilege to pray, it is an honor to pray. For You our Father the creator of heaven and earth have granted us to step on Holy Ground before You. Thank You Lord, thank You.

July 16

Lord there are times when life can put us in the pit. When we are submerged in hurt from others, or afraid as we do not know what our tomorrows may have. Or we may have put ourselves in the pit because of the consequences of sin. We know it’s only You Lord that can take us out of our pits. So we reach out our hands to You believing You will save us.

Help us to realize we are no longer slaves to sin. We have been set free. Change our mindsets Lord as we’ve allowed ourselves to believe we are still in bondage when You have already removed the shackles. Lead us out of the cells we are in and into freedom. In the mighty name of Jesus we ask.
