Respite For the Weary
According to the grace of God which was given to me, as a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building upon it. For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which was laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds upon the foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each man's work will become evident; for the day will show it, because it is to be revealed with fire; and the fire itself will test the quality of each man's work. If any man's work which he has built upon it remains, he shall receive a reward… Do you not know that you are a temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?
I Corinthians 3: 10-16
Dear Lord Jesus,
May YOU ALONE be the foundation of my children's hearts, nothing else. As they stand on Your promises, inspire them to live LIFE to the fullest with Your power, and for Your glory. May they not be satisfied with status quo, complacency, or passivity, I pray. Instead, I ask You to give them an urgent unquenching desire to serve You with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength. Keep them humbly aware that You, O God, live inside of them and that You long to accomplish everything that concerns them. Arise in them and SHINE through them, I pray.
Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place--the Most High, who is my refuge--no evil shall be allowed to befall you, no plague come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will lift you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone. Psalm 91:9-11
Dear Lord,
You are our dwelling place, the strong fortress that guards our soul. In your presence, our hearts have unshakeable peace. Almighty God, we beg of you today to command your angels to guard those who are in desperate need of physical protection. Do your supernatural work on behalf of your people. In Jesus Name, Amen.
