DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

To Rejoice in the Good News of God With Us

Immanuel,
May we never cease to marvel at the wonder of your birth! Let it never become so familiar as to become mundane or mere tradition. There is simply no understandable human explanation to account for why the divine should dwell among fallen mankind in this broken creation. Nonetheless, Christmas means just that: God came to live among man. And, he didn’t come just to live, but to die, so that ultimately we could live with him forever. Until then, your coming to us at Christmas assures us of your permanent presence. Be with us always, ever-present Immanuel. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

To Remember That You’re in Control

Mighty God,
No matter what I’m dealing with right now, Lord, I can always use the reminder that everything is going to be OK. As a believer, I know that you hold me in the palm of your hand, that you work out everything – good and bad – for my benefit, and that I will never face anything alone. With this confidence, help me to live in faith, not fear. Equip me to win my battles against worry, remembering that there is no harm or danger that can ever separate me from you and your love. The certainty of my salvation is my security and the source of my strength. Let me rest in your peace and find comfort in knowing that neither you nor those who are yours will ever come to ruin at the hands of the evil one.

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
