July Prayers

July 2

Thank You Lord, for when we are broken over situations, others or sins. You always show Yourself strong. Amen

O Lord God, how wonderful it is to get to know You. How beautiful are Your words. How loving and kind beyond measure You are. We are humbled and thankful. Amen

July 21

Dear Father, help us to distinguish between what is good and what is best. There are things in our lives that are good, maybe a TV program, or taking a walk, reading the newspaper.

July 24

Lord God, You are all that we need, You are more than enough, but there are times our flesh can covet what we don’t have. Our fleshly desires can turn to believing we need more than what we have. Father forgive us when we allow ourselves to believe such lies. In the name of Jesus we pray. Amen

July 25

Lord we come before You on our knees asking for Your mercy. We are seeking Your deliverance for our children, those who have lived in our homes, raised in the church and yet have chosen to walk away and live in the belief that their choices are not sin. In the mighty name of Jesus we pray. Amen

July 26

Lord forgive us for the divisions we may have caused. Words we may have spoken, that caused a rift in relationships. Words that have caused one person to go against another. Lord, give us the strength to make things right. In the name of Jesus we pray.

July 27

Remind us Lord how important it is to sit at Your feet. Remind us that good deeds can wait until we have spent our time with You. We can have a list of “to do’s”, and choose to do those first, neglecting our time with You that is much more important. In the name of Jesus we pray.

Blessed Lord, we give You praise. Praise, thanksgiving and worship for who You are and for all that You have done in our lives. For Your love You have poured out upon us. For the gift of the Holy Spirit. Amen!
