Prayer for Today

You have measured me and found me lacking, Lord. I am not wise enough, courageous enough, strong enough nor powerful enough. But for your Holy Spirit, I am nothing worthy of your attention. He is your glory in my midst. You are the Lord of my flesh, my wisdom, my source of courage and strength. You are the power that swirls around me within the circle of the Father’s will. Ring your wall of holy fire around me as you did for Jerusalem. Do the same for all believers and for their homes and communities. Let your wall of fire be the beacon that draws people home to the saving knowledge of you, Lord. I ask in your precious name above all names and in your powerful authority, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.
