Are you facing something that’s more than you can handle on your own?
You are not in this alone.
God is with you.
He is for you.
Jesus is working on your behalf.

Jesus, You know what I am facing. And how it feels like way more than I can handle. I’m tired. I’m weary… yet THIS I call to mind, therefore I will have hope – because of Your great love for me, I am not consumed. Your mercy never ceases. You give strength to the weary {that’s me}, and increases the power of the weak. Because I have put my faith and trust in Jesus, and He lives in me, then I know that GREATER is HE who is in me than he who is in the world trying to discourage me and defeat me.
Today , I will not focus on my circumstances but, instead I will focus on YOU — Now to His who is able to do immeasurably more than I can even ask or imagine according to YOUR power that is at work in me. Jesus, I am choosing today to walk in the assurance of Your love and the security of Your promises as I face this giant. My confidence is in You and Your power that is at work in me! In Your Name, amen. {Lamentations 3:21-22, Isaiah 40:29, 1 John 4:4, Ephesians 3:20}

Deena, I’m praying that you hold steadfast in the knowledge that He does and will provide our every need. It is hard to understand that His timimg is not always aligned with ours but His is perfect timing!
I’m praying these promises and asking God to do immeasurably more than I can think of or imagine in my son’s fight against cancer. He is 14 years old and has his 5 year scans this Friday. Even though the 10 year survival rate is very low, we continue to have faith that the Lord will continue to bless him.
Nancy,
I’m praying that your prayers will be answered and your portions will be overflowing from our Lord.
Also, to Mom, I praying for your son and agreeing with you in prayer.
I’m praying for you Nancy.
I’m praying God’s promises and asking HIM to do immeasurably more than I can think of or imagine in the area of my family finances. I need a job and I need to find food for my family and gas for my car today. My “Daddy” owns the cattle on a 1,000 hills and He will show me the way.
Thanks for praying for me.
Today I am praying Gods promises and provisions for my family and marriage . I currently have a job singing in a band, but the schedule is so very hard on my family. I pray that God would direct me and if needed open doors for a new job, and help prepare my exit to Glorify Him! I am scared and anxious about the future, but I know God will provide new opportunities to sing to Him and for Him!
I also pray for a moms son. Father God, you are a loving Father with a plan for each and every life. I join my sister in Christ, and hold up her son. I ask in the mighty name of Jesus, to return her Son to the joy of his salvation in you. May your Holy Spirit blow and rekindle the fire of Your love in his heart! Bless her son this day, in the name of Jesus, amen!
I’m praying God’s promises and asking HIM to do immeasurably more than I can think of or imagine in my journey to lose 50lbs and facing the trauma of my childhood with a Christian counselor. I have started on both journies many times but never both at the same time or with God as my guide. Both feel overwhelming.
I am praying and claiming God’s promises today for my son who in not walking with the Lord. Nancy I a praying for God to open up a door you don’t yet see to provide for you today
I had surgery in March of this year and when it was time to go back to work, my employer told me not to bother because they were going to promote the girl who had been filling in for me. After I got over the blow of being terminated, I dusted my shoes off and turned back to the Lord and have stayed on track since. I was able to collect unemployment but it will end in December of this year. I have applied for wonderful jobs that I am well qualified for and yet God has not placed me in any of these positions. I am trying to stay focused on Him and not panick as the end of the year draws closer. For today, my goal will be to focus only on God and not on a job. Praise the Lord.
Nancy, I myself am facing downsizing at the end of the year. I am worried, scared a a bag of nerves. I am praying and trying to place all my trust in a God who never fails. Praying with and for you that God will open doors for us and thsat He will provide for our every need.
Praying for the our confidence to be in our heavenly father and the power is from him…
Praying for certain life situations…Praying for Liz, finances and furture husband. Claiming these in Jesus Name!
Praying for each of the above ladies…
I am praying that God should give me my heart desire that i have prayed for the past 15 years. He is an answerable God and should give me the strenght in all things.
Praying for each and every one of you special ladies today that you will find comfort and rest in our Lord as only He can give. It seems as I read each one of your posts I can relate to each one of you- my daughter had speech issues from the time she was 2 yrs. old up until third grade and at times I thought she would never speak normally, but Praise God, today she is a senior in HS and is in the top of her class and that’s what she wants to major in! At the time we were going through all of that …therapy sessions and practicing and Dr. Visits and crying and praying alone in the shower, my Jesus had a plan for each one of those days to be used
mightly for Him so He could fulfill His plan for her. I have issues in my marriage, my family is fractured,my husband and mother haven’t spoken in 2 yrs, and my heart is broken,but again my Jesus has used each one of these days ..my father who believed in God but didn ‘t go to church is now a faithful member, does bible study in his home and humbles me by what he knows and his faith that our family will be restored amazes me.
I tell you these things not because I minimize your pain…I cry and pray everyday over my situation (marriage, my job) but I keep clinging to my Jesus knowing even on the worst of my days He is using them and had them planned out for my good . Thank-you Renee and all you others for being such a sweet source of comfort with your words of prayer and encouragement. Num 6 :24-26
I am claiming these promises and believing God to immeasurably more than I can think of or ever imagine in my finances and future husband. In Jesus name!
Praying for you too Rosalyn. God will send you a home. I’m praying for my own! Let’s trust Him together.
I’m currently without my own home. Trusting for God’s direction where He is leading us next. Letting Him work out the details… exceedingly beyond what I can ask or think.
Also praying for Marsha, for God’s abundant provision for their financial situation. Doors of opportunity opening and more than enough for all your needs through the abundance in Christ Jesus.
I’m praying God’s promises and asking HIM to do immeasurably more than I can think of or imagine in our finances. My husband lost his full-time job over 2 1/2 years ago. He has found a part-time job, and I am also working. Both of us and our children struggle with anxiety, and he is a recovering alcoholic. Our financial situation is just overwhelming to me. I live most days in dread. Isn’t it wonderful when a daily devotion speaks exactly what you need to hear? I so desire to keep my focus and thoughts and heart on HIM.
Praying for Tara, and each of the other women, that God meets us right where we are today and that we feel His love and provision and see His promises fullfilled in our lives.
I’m praying God’s promises and asking HIM to do immeasurably more than I can think of or imagine in
Our finances and a different job for my husband. He works a lot of hours and we have maybe 2 hours in the evening and Sunday to spend time together. We have a business opportunity that we are praying about. Would be a big step of faith. The word tells me that God knows the plans he has for us . Please pray that we will know his will very clearly. My prayers are with each and every one of you. God bless.
Julie, I am praying that God will bless u with the perfect job. Isn’t it a blessed assurannce for us to know that God is bigger than any obstacle we may be facing. God bless you as you wait upon our Lord.
In my present financial circumstances, I know He is able to give me a good job and allow me to regain my health and increase my faith in Him!!!
To God Be All The Glory!!!!!!!!! Jules.
that i might have shingles again and it is the start of my son’s homecoming week.
blessings
in my health, finances and family!!! i was brought back from death, not to be homeless and destitute, but to be about my Father’s business….in HIS abundance!
I pray Gods promises in regards to my marriage and the restoration if its His will.
Sue. Lifting you up in prayer
what God has brought together, NO man can put asunder! marriage is from God and He can do ALL things for those that love Him and are the called according to HIS purpose. i give this marriage to you, Lord. it is in Your hands!
I am claiming these promises as I struggle with self-doubt and that “not good enough”feeling. This goes back to my childhood and it is difficult to move beyond those thoughts. Only our gracious Father can heal me in this area.
I was told the whole time I was growing up that I was a mistake of God. I spent 30 plus years of my life trying to earn my mother’s love – and trying to be good enough. It did not matter what I did. I was a good kid, good student (even President of National Honor Society, etc.), and the list goes on. Guess what? I have quit defining myself according to what my Mom (or the world said or says). I now define myself according to His Word. Who is smarter ? My Mom or God, the world or God. I strongly (underline and bold) recommend the book See Yourself As God Sees You by Josh McDowell. It gives great insight into looking at yourself as God does – and He loves you so much ! You are His masterpiece ! Just ask God.
He will tell you this over and over. I still at times hear my mother’s voice saying “You are a mistake. You should never have been born. You are ugly “…. and the list definitely could go on. Now I am ready to replace what I hear my Mom saying to what I hear Him saying in His Word. Be prepared to replace those “not good enough” thoughts with “God loves you” thoughts. I will be praying for you. Please feel free to email me.
Thanks for your response, Rita. I have some questions for you. Would you email me at [email protected]?
prayong that people fear to me would recognize their source of life jos our loving Father and that God would build a bridge of communication and mutual respect between the facilities I am involved with everyday.
Sorry, didn’t proof read, big fingers : )
