Speaker 1 (00:00):
I am Sherry Mackie and it's time for us to
go to God in prayer. And as always I ask
that you join along with me in prayer. Today I'm praying, Lord,
just be our provider, because sometimes, as when we need,
God provide, and God, why you provide and give us
some peace. Gracious and almighty Father, we come before you
(00:22):
today in the name of Jesus Christ. Today we come
before you God with hearts that are sometimes heavy, needs
that are sometimes overwhelming, and questions God that we can
always answer. But even in the middle of uncertainty, we
can lift our eyes to you. God. You are the
auth and finisher of our faith. You're the God who provides.
(00:44):
You're the God who is our peace. Lord, we acknowledge
that every good and perfect gift comes from you. You
are Jehovah Jibra. You are our provider. You are Jehovah Shaloon.
You are our peace that goes beyond our human understanding.
Out For every person who feels the weight of financial strain,
who wonders how the bills will be paid, who questions
(01:07):
how to make ends meet, we ask for your provision
open doors of opportunity that no one can shut grant
wisdom to be good stewards of what you've already placed
in our hands. Remind us that you fed Israel in
the wilderness, you set manner from heaven, you brought water
out of a rock, and you are still the same
(01:27):
God today. Let us rest in knowing that you take
care of the sparrows. Surely, God, if you could take
care of those sparrows, you can take care of us. Lord.
We also ask for your peace, your peace to cover
our minds, your peace to cover our hearts, their storms
swirling around us, stress and work, pressure in our homes,
(01:48):
chaos in the world. But you promised in your word
in John fourteen twenty seven that the peace that you
give is not like what the world gives. It's a
peace that calms the anxious heart, that steals the troubled mind,
the peace that gods us even when life doesn't make sense. Father,
let that peace around us right now. Silence the noise
(02:09):
of fear, Silence the doubt. God, remind us that you
are still on the throne and nothing, no thing, can
separate us from your love. God. When we're tempted to work,
let us instead turn to worship. When we're tempted to panic.
Let us instead press into prayer. Teach us God to
lean on you and trust in your time and to
(02:31):
resting the assurance that you know what we need. Even God,
before we ask, let our faith rise above fear. Let
our trust silence our troubles, and our hope anchor ourselves. God,
we pray not only for our needs, but for those
around us, Families God, that are experiencing lack God, children
(02:52):
who go to bed hungry, those searching for work, those
battling with despair. Lord, be their provider, show yourself strong
in their lives, and let us be instruments of your provision,
channels of blessings and distribution, sinners, hands and feet that
carry your love to others. And Father, we thank you
in advance for what you're doing, even what we can't
(03:14):
see yet. Thank you that provision is on the way,
Peace is already promising. Victory belongs to your children. So
today God, we release every one of our cares into
your hands, and we receive your peace into our hearts
in a mighty, wonderful, matchless name of Jesus, our provider
and our peace. Amen. Amen,
