To See Your Goodness at All Times

God of All Goodness,
You are good, all the time. We believe it because we know it’s true, but in practice we easily shift our eyes away from all the good you are accomplishing and focus on all that is wicked and wrong in the world. Remind us that you have overcome the world, and that your will and your ways always prevail. Fill our hearts daily with gratitude, so that it shapes and influences the way we see things, and we become more and more aware of your goodness all around us and for us. Our lives will have ups and downs, celebrations and frustrations, but your goodness is constant. Therefore, make us confident at all times and in all situations that you really will bring good out of everything for all your people, including me. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.

To Put My Faith Into Action Daily

Faith-Giving Spirit,
Your Word records many exemplary ways you used believers to carry out your work. We marvel at the trusting obedience of Abraham and the bold Pharaoh-facing confidence of Moses. The daunting threats and unique ministries to which you called your prophets would easily have turned weaker believers away. The determination and resiliency that Paul faced on his missionary journeys and the miracles that your disciples performed in your name were exemplary. 

I easily feel like my life and opportunities to serve you pale by comparison. But you don’t see things that way. Help me to realize that I can glorify you in what appear to be the daily and the mundane and the things which seem small, but which are done in faith and love for you and others. When through the lens of my faith, I consciously carry out my responsibilities as a husband or a father, as a son or a sibling, or as an employee or a neighbor, you do not view my service in your kingdom as big or small, but simply as faithful. Therefore, fill me with a godly desire simply to put my faith into action in many ways daily, so that through me you may build up your church, just as you’ve been doing through believers for generations. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
