When We Are Courageous
This morning I read a few emails from a pastor about some serious prayer requests. As I thought about the requests, I realized that the people for whom we were praying were facing challenging times ahead. It also made me think of all we must do to survive each day. In reality, regardless of our situation, it takes courage just to move forward through our day. And we can get that courage from knowing our Father, and spending time with Him.
Psalms 8:1O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth! who hast set thy glory above the heavens.
2 Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings hast thou ordained strength because of thine enemies, that thou mightest still the enemy and the avenger.
3 When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained;
4 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him?
5 For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
6 Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet:
7 All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field;
8 The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas.
9 O Lord our Lord, how excellent is thy name in all the earth!
Today, let us be encouraged, knowing our Father is watching over us.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King! Praise the name Yahuah! Let us do Your words, that we might be Your lights in this world. Give us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us our sins. Restore unto Your people their health and peace, inside and out. Restore unto Your people their land and their prosperity. Restore unto Your people one hundred times one hundred times one hundredfold all that has been taken from them or held back in any way, their goods, their finances, and their blessings, and more besides. Rise up at this time, O King, and bring change into our lives such that all men know You alone have provided these blessings. We ask all these things in the name of our Messiah Yeshuah (Jesus). Amen.
