Dear God, thank You for waking me up today and for allowing me to see a day that is full of Your mercies. Your word in Numbers 6:24-26 says, “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.” You didn’t promise a life without pain, struggles, or hardships, but You promised to give me peace and the strength to get through them. Thank You for blessing me through every difficult moment. Thank You for shining Your light on me during moments when I was in darkness. Thank You for giving me peace that surpasses all understanding. Your grace is truly amazing, and Your love never fails. I will trust in Your word today and rest in Your promises. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. -Lamentations 3:22-23

A prayer for the new week

@dailybibledevotionals

Dear God, thank You for giving me another day. Thank You for Your mercies that are new each morning and for bringing me to another week. Your word in Numbers 6:24-26 says, “The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make His face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn His face toward you and give you peace.” God, I thank You for this amazing promise that You’ve given me in Your word. There have been moments this year where I’ve felt bruised, exhausted, and broken—but there have also been moments where I’ve smiled, I’ve won, and I’ve overcome. Thank You for blessing me and keeping me—not just through each week, but all the days of my life. I’m walking by faith no matter what happens. The faith I have this year is different. With You by my side, I know everything is going to work out. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. -Romans 10:17

Dear God, thank You for giving me another day. Thank You for loving me, for calling me, and for never giving up on me—even when I’ve wanted to give up on myself. Right now, I pray for strength to keep going. There have been moments where I’ve felt worn out, where I’ve wondered if the seeds I’ve been planting would ever grow. But I know that You are faithful. Your word in Galatians 6:9 says, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” God, I’m trusting that every challenge, every delay, and every tear is being used to prepare me for what You’ve already written with my name on it. Remind me that I’m not behind—I’m being prepared. Thank You for strengthening me, for shaping me, and for holding me close through it all. I believe the breakthrough is coming, and I believe You’re using everything for my good. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The one who calls you is faithful, and He will do it. -1 Thessalonians 5:24
