DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Those in Prison

Ever-Present Father,
While society often overlooks those behind bars, let those in prison know that you, Lord, never do. When we pray for justice to be carried out, it means that those who commit crimes will face consequences for their actions. When those consequences include jail time, steer them away from violence and cruelty toward others. Meet their physical needs, protecting them from harm and danger. Make known to them that they are not forgotten or rejected by you. Whether they are people of faith or not, lead them to seek you out so that they may know the One whose arms are always open to welcome the wayward and the lost. Maximize their time in prison by providing many opportunities to be in your Word and grow in faith. Your Word reveals that you specialize in transforming guilty sinners into saved saints to carry out your service. Therefore, let your grace continue to set prisoners spiritually free, so that they may enjoy life to the full and eagerly serve you in your kingdom when you grant their physical freedom. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Children Without Parents

Abba Father,
Come to the aid of children without their biological parents. Heal the hurting hearts of those who lost their parents through tragedy. Soothe the troubled minds of those given up for adoption who feel unwanted and struggle with abandonment issues. Bring peace to those bearing the weight of shame because of incarcerated parents. In all situations like these, provide loving and nurturing environments for children to be cared for and raised. Richly bless those willing to step in and make sacrifices to love these needy little ones. If they don’t already know you, allow them to be introduced to you, their loving Heavenly Father. Point them to the cross so that they may know the depth of your love. Then, enable these children to love others deeply because they know how deeply loved they are by you. Meet all of their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs in accordance with your lavish generosity. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
