April 12
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not to your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths." Proverbs 3:5-7
These beautiful words say all we need to know. We may not always trust our circumstances, we may not always understand the people around us, but we KNOW, through thick and thin, through our ups and downs, through our good times and bad times, in every situation we find ourselves--WE CAN TRUST JESUS as Proverbs 3:5-7 admonishes that we do.
Lord, I ask You to wrap Your precious people and those for whom they pray in YOUR LOVE AND POWER AND PROTECTION. I ask You to keep them safe as they journey through this Vale of Tears. I ask You to guard their hears and to fill their hearts with complete love and surrender to You and to Your purposes. I ask You to fill them with faith and kindness that enables them to pray in power and to love unselfishly.
I ask that You bless them individually and that they lavish the blessings You bestow upon them without discrimination upon the people around them so every life that touches theirs will be bathed in the light of the Son.
I ask that You guide their path into the fullness of the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Galatians 5:22, 23) and into the brightness of the light and perfection of the life You desire them to possess. I ask that Your power at work in and through them, that Your goodness and love lavished upon them bring them to the blessings You desire to give them, according to Jeremiah 33:3 which says, “Call to Me and I will answer you and show you amazing things you cannot imagine.”
May they know beyond the shadow of doubting that Your blessings are not the tangible things of time but the glorious things of eternity. May they know that the Son is life’s one true and abiding treasure. It is in Your own mighty name I ask, Jesus. Amen.
