Today’s Verse:
"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. " 2 Corinthians 4:17
Prayer for Today :
Heavenly Father,
It is suggested that we pray the verse for today when we are looking for peace in times of trials.
Trial is a term used in the legal proceedings. Trial is usually with a group of juries, in which they either make a decision or make findings of fact which are then applied by a judge. Trial can also mean "The act or process of testing, trying, or putting to the proof".
Father, whenever the word "trouble" comes up in our lives, we become the weak and the needy. At this fragile moment, we are prone to sin and choose the easy way. We tend to lay down or stick our heads in the sand, instead of believing You or walking boldly with You through this road of suffering. Father, when You put us under the chastening, give us endurance, for we may not survive without it!
Father, You are our Father of compassion and our God of comfort. Please comfort us in this time of trouble and suffering. Grant us peace, perseverance, hope, grace and mercy, which we desperately need. Father, we only see one set of footprints in the sand right now, because You are carrying us along this rough time. Father, we need more of Your strength, more of Your power, more of Your support and more of Your presence. Wrap Your arms around us and hug us deeply, hold us so tight that we may not breath!
In Christ's glorious Name we pray, Amen.
