PRAY FOR HOPE

Romans 15:13 Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

We pray that the root of hope fills all people with joy, peace, happiness, and love through their faith in Christ. Father, you said those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament.  Lord, we ask that You let this light shine on our children and our children's children; give them hope so You may turn our children to righteousness and save them from the darkness of this world.  Father, sometimes we grow weary of doing good, give us endurance to weather-the-storm; strengthen our faith and help us with our unbeliefs.  Lord, prune our Fruit daily through Your Word; so we may mature into the Believers, You created us to be.  Father, right now, someone reading this is in pain; give them comfort, someone is sick, Lord, heal them according to Your will.  Lord, someone's marriage is falling apart; fix it, Lord, according to Your will. Father, someone has problems at work or needs work; Lord, intervene on their behalf and give them peace. Father, we face many day-to-day struggles; order our step through this valley and help us walk in Your will. Lord, we ask for wisdom and the knowledge to implement You in our daily lives and our children's lives. Father, we pray a special blessing for those who have lost their loved ones to gun violence.  Lord, please help us stop the senseless killings of our children and our children's children; remove every generational curse from them in the name of Jesus. Father, touch the hearts of everyone who comes into contact with our children and fill them with compassion, kindness, and love. Father, forgive us for our sins, and give us Your strength, understanding, and love; so we can forgive others; in the name of Jesus, we pray.


Amen
