Prayer for the Homeless
O God, as Naomi and Ruth journeyed from one land to another seeking a home, we ask your blessing upon all who are homeless in this world. You promised to your chosen people a land flowing with milk and honey; so inspire us to desire the accomplishment of your will that we may work for the settlement of those who are homeless in a place of peace, protection, and nurture, flowing with opportunity, blessing, and hope. Amen.

Dear Heavenly Father, Praises be to Your Name for delivering us from the curses of the enemy! I thank You for Your many blessings, and am grateful that You have redeemed us from the curse. Lord, set us free from all dissatisfaction and discontent. Lord, today, may I find my peace and contentment in You. Father, I am grateful for Your protection against the curses of the devil. Thank You for protecting my property from fire and sending us rain in due season. I am grateful for the refreshing rains You send and I know the animals, trees, grasses and the earth are happy, too. We thank You for Your many blessings and pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Dear Lord, "as a man thinks in his heart, so he is;"* so then let me always think of You. Let me realize that it is not so much asking You to make me over, as it is living with You, letting You abide in me, talking with You, and letting Your presence permeate my whole being, that will transform my life. ... Oh Lord, strengthen my desire to make You the center of my life.
In Jesus' name I pray.
Amen.

You Made Endurance Possible!
Colossians 1:23
Dear Father,
Help me to continue in the faith by holding on to what you have given and by being stable and steadfast.
Don't let anything move me away from the hope of the Good News which I heard, which was proclaimed throughout the whole creation under heaven.
You make my endurance possible by filling me with your Spirit. Fill me more and more! And thank you for being my Father.
In the name of Jesus and by his authority I ask. Amen.
