Yesterday....
A day that for so many of you may have been crushing. A day filled with unmet expectations and dreams that did not come to pass for your family.
Another day of prayers yet to be answered.
Yet we rejoice in the power of the cross.
We are pressed but not crushed.
We are perplexed, but not despairing.
We are persecuted, yet not abandoned.
We are struck down but not destroyed.
Because of the hope that we have this hope. The hope that none of us have been forsaken.
May you be filled with the hope of His promise today.
May your loved one be drawn to the hope of the light of the World, given for us.
Emanuel, God with us.
April 14, 2024 Our prayer for Our Loved One Today
2 Corinthians 4:7-10 TPT
[7] We are like common clay jars that carry this glorious treasure within, so that the extraordinary overflow of power will be seen as God's, not ours. [8] Though we experience every kind of pressure, we're not crushed. At times we don't know what to do, but quitting is not an option. [9] We are persecuted by others, but God has not forsaken us. We may be knocked down, but not out. [10] We continually share in the death of Jesus in our own bodies so that the resurrection life of Jesus will be revealed through our humanity.
Father God, we come to you today with our broken dreams, shattered hearts and promises that have not yet come to pass. Lord, the weight of the burdens we carry are heavy. Yet, because of who you are we have an extraordinary overflow of your power, the power of your love, that runs in and through us. Lord, we ask today that you would fill (our loved one) with that same abundance of power that only comes from your love for us. Lord, we know that (our loved one) is experiencing every kind of pressure today. Lord, hold (him/her) up so (he/she) would not be crushed. We know that (our loved one) may feel like giving up today. Give (him/her) supernatural strength so quitting is not an option. We understand that (our loved one) may be experiencing the consequences of unjust acts by others. We ask that you would make your presence known to (him/her) so that (he/she) knows that you have not forsaken (him/her). Lord, the power of your death give us strength. Today we draw on that power to intercede on behalf of (our loved one). We pray for your grace to cover each one of us today. In your son’s name we pray. Amen
