DEVOTION:
Isaiah 40:31 but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. they will soar on wings like eagle they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.
PRAYER:
Almighty and Holy God, You are goodness. This Wednesday morning, there are some already feeling tired. Life has a way of doing that, physically, emotionally, even spiritually. And yet, You promise renewal to those who place their hope in You. So today, Lord, we come honestly. We do not pretend to have more strength than we do. We simply ask that You meet us here and give us what we need.
Renew our energy where it is lacking. Restore our spirit where it feels worn. And steady us so that we do not try to run ahead, but walk at a pace that keeps us close to You.
We pray for those who are struggling quietly, those who are holding it together on the outside but feel worn down within. Let them feel Your presence today in a real and tangible way. Lord Jesus, we lift those who ar struggling with depression, suicidal thoughts, loss, and those seeking.
We lift our church family to You, that we would be a place of encouragement and care, not pressure or expectation. Help us to lift one another up. And as we step into this day, remind us that our strength does not come from ourselves, it comes from You. You tell us to come, may we listen? In Jesus’ name, Amen.
