Lately I have heard of a lot a people who are going through hard times, loss and heartache. I know from experience that when you are in the midst of these times it feels like the end of your world, and there's no recovering from this moment....and if you're not careful, every thought can become consumed by negativity and darkness. This is how the enemy creeps in during our difficult times and makes us feel completely defeated. But I am here today to say, you can be healed and restored from even the most difficult things. I have faced some very difficult things in my life and the ONLY reason I was able to was because of the hope and strength I found in and through God.
I want to offer up a prayer to help anyone who knows they need God in the midst of their difficulty, but you just can't even find the words to say to him....
God, I know You are near me. I know this because Your word promises that you will never leave nor forsake me. But God right now I need to feel Your presence. I need to feel Your all consuming presence in my heart, my mind and my soul. I need to find rest in You. I need to feel the peace that only comes from You. Please help me overcome the darkness that is trying to take me over and restore the joy that comes from You...a joy that can be found in the midst of my storm. God I surrender my situation to you. I surrender all the pain and I surrender all the confusion this situation is causing me. Please meet me where I am and help me get through this. Restore the pieces of me that have been torn and fragmented through this situation and make me whole again. Teach me what you need me to see as I go through this so that You can make something good out of something the enemy meant to destroy me. And soften my heart so that anger and bitterness do not settle in. I want to stay sensitive to the Holy Spirit, and obedient to anything you call me to, even as I want through this very difficult time. I KNOW that my hope and my healing is in your hands, and I declare Your healing over me right now. I receive anything You have for me and I speak life in the blessings and favor You will show me as I walk this out in a manner that brings honor and glory to Your name.
I thank you God for the blessings You have brought and continue to bring into my life. The ones I can see, and the ones I can't see. Help me look at things more with my spiritual eyes so I can see Your goodness all around me...and avoid the things the enemy is trying to attack me with. I want ALL of my peace and joy to be given to me supernaturally by You....and I surrender all circumstantial peace and joy I have been living in to You right now. I will defeat the enemy and his plans by NOT focusing on my circumstances, but by focusing on You. I thank You now for the healing that is already taking place inside of me. Use me to help others even as I walk this out...telling others how You are carrying me through this...and that You can do the same for them. My Hope is in You and You alone!
In Jesus name, Amen
