Prayer for Today

Father, in the quiet of the morning when we expose our souls to Your Word, we wait for You. In the bustle of the daily routine and the noise of life around us, we wait for You. In the throws of illness when we question why and how, we wait for You.

In the softness of dusk falling as day turns to night, we wait for You. With our heads upon our pillows and our prayers upon our hearts, we wait for You. You are the consistency and the constancy in our existence. We pray for Your favor and blessing in the name and authority of Jesus, according to Your good and perfect will. Amen.

“Keep my soul, and deliver me; Let me not be ashamed, for I put my trust in You. Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You.” (Psalm 25: 20-21 NKJV)
