Today’s Verse:
And God said to Jacob, "I am God Almighty ; be fruitful and increase in number. A nation and a community of nations will come from you, and kings will come from your body. The land I gave to Abraham and Isaac I also give to you, and I will give this land to your descendants after you." - Genesis 35:11-12
Prayer for Today :
Dear Heavenly Father,
God, You are so faithful, You are the God of second chances. In the story of Jacob, we learnt that he went to his father deceitfully, pretended to be Esau and received from his father, the blessings of the firstborn. Jocab left home for many years and returned finally. At the end, he received blessings from You. Father, Thank you for your teaching through the life of Jacob. It is inspiring to know that God, You have given him a second chance to live his life gloriously.
Lord, help us to forgive those who hurt us, help us to see through this pain and angry feeling which is torturing us. Help us to practice Your teaching "Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold." Lord, if there are any hidden negative feelings in us toward the people who hurt us, cleanse us and help us to replace these negative emotions with Your fruitful blessings.
God, give us wisdom to manage our anger in the future.
Lord, help us to forgive ourselves. Help us to have the courage to ask for forgiveness from the people we hurt. Father, we ask You to heal us right now, heal the wounded places in our souls! Thankyou Father, for it is hard to face up to the wrong doings in our lives.
In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
