Trust in the Lord ☝️

+One of the biggest obstacles to faith is the suffering of the innocent. Yet God is able to meet us in the midst of suffering and struggles.

+Extraordinarily, it is often the people who have gone through the greatest suffering who have the strongest faith.

+They testify to the presence of God with them, strengthening and comforting them in the midst of their pain.

+Today, whatever challenges you are facing, write them down, put your trust in God, believe that he will be with you and give you success in whatever he asks you to do.

🙏 Lord, thank you that I can trust in you in all circumstances. Today, I lay before you all the challenges I am facing… I put my trust in you.

+Thank you that you can protect me even when disaster strikes. When things go wrong, help me not to be afraid but rather to keep up my courage and to have faith in you. In Jesus name, Amen. 🙌🪄💛

[ Trust in God when things don’t look good. We see this again in 2 Kings 18 and in Acts 27:33. God can turn what seems impossible around. 😊 ]

PRAYER 💜

🙏 Dear Jesus, You’re more powerful than any force—seen or unseen. I need Your presence and power to be at work in me today.

+Thank You for taking fear of power and replacing it with love. I know that I'll feel afraid at times, but, because of You, fear does not have the final say.

+Please replace my doubts and fears with thoughts about what is good and true. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙌☝️🌻🪄💛

LIFE'S CHALLENGES DOESN'T STOP GOD FROM BLESSING YOU 🖤

+Life is a set of challenges, problems and hassles. We sometimes imagine that if we could just deal with the immediate challenge that we are facing, all our problems would be over.

+But life is not like that. If we resolve one problem, others are just around the corner. All of us have struggles.

+But we’re not alone; God is with us in each trial. Those who believe in Him are loved, forgiven and promised eternal life (John 3:16). We can hold fast to Him.

+Whatever situations or difficulties you may face, you can bring them to God in prayer. 😊

🙏 Dear Father God, please help me to bring my questions and troubles to You knowing You hear them. One day my questions will be no more.

+As we face challenges ahead, give us a determination not to give up but to persevere and carry through to the end.

+Thank you that you are my strength and joy as I face challenges and problems in life. In Jesus name, Amen. 🙌☝️🌻🪄

PRAYER 🖤

🙏 Father God, I know that turbulence in life is inevitable. I’m not immune from those harsh winds that disrupt my journey. But I thank You that I get to take this journey with You right beside me.

+Thank You that I don’t need to give in to anxiety because You are in perfect control of every detail, including every storm.

+Today, I lay my anxieties at Your feet. I exchange my panic for Your peace. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙌☝️🌻🧡

PRAYER 🧡

🙏 Father God, You know my thoughts from afar. You know how I tend to play out different situations in my mind till they grip my heart with fear.

+Father, today I recognize that those patterns of negative, untrue thinking are often a ploy of the enemy to distract me and steal my peace.

+Today I chose to reject those thoughts and replace them with the truth from Your Word. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻💜

Don’t Forget Thanksgiving

+In turning our eyes to Jesus on Thanksgiving, we are able to take our white-knuckle grip off our problems.

+This is not about faking it, but acknowledging and remembering God in the midst of the hard.

+Thanksgiving turns our eyes from our situation to our Saviour, from our overwhelming problems to His overwhelming love.

+We don’t give thanks because the situation merits it. We give thanks because of Who He is in the midst of our situation.

+We give thanks for what He may be doing in and through us when those unbearable trials descend on us.

+We can hold both our anxiousness and thanksgiving together. His Word tells us to do just that. 😊

🙏 Father God, I acknowledge today that I often tell myself a solely negative story, and I forget Your hand of blessing in my life.

+I tend to focus so exclusively on my problems that I overlook how You led me through storms in the past.

+Lord, help today as I speak to You about my trials to also spend time on thanksgiving.

+Because even in the wilderness and the weariness, You are with me and Your grace is sufficient.

+I thank You today because You promise to work all things out for my good and Your glory. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻❣️

GOD KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED ♥️

+God knows every detail and nuance of our situation, and yet He urges us to come to Him because in communion with Him, He has the opportunity to flood our anxious hearts with His incomparable, incomprehensible peace.

🙏 Heavenly Father, What a privilege it is to carry everything to You in prayer. As the old hymn goes, we often forfeit peace because we don’t carry everything to You in prayer.

+Father, help me to let go of my need to control situations and outcomes. Father, forgive me for acting like prayer is a last resort to which I must resign.

+Help me to see it as a beautiful opportunity to let go and experience the peace that You give me. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 🙌☝️🪄🌻❣️
