Prayer to be brave

Firelight · Nov 12, 2024

Lord, I ask for a renewal of the courage I felt this morning. I can feel myself retreat into fear today. I’ve laid down and have barely gotten up after being so alive this morning. Please Lord, give me the strength to be brave and get up. In the face of uncertainty, I know I can do at least some small good. I know I must not be overwhelmed by the mass of my problems, or the persecution by my abusers, the uncertainty of a day with no clear direction. I know I must stand up and do something, however small, because it is better than doing nothing. Lord, I know lying down and doing nothing is a rebuke of faith - because if I had faith strong enough, I would get up and do the little that I can right now. To lie down and hide all day shows no faith in a better life. To lie down and give up shows no faith in your protection. To get up and do what can be done despite all of my fears is faith. Lord, help me practice faith today.

We understand your struggle with fear and feeling overwhelmed, ###. Let us stand with you in prayer and remind you of God's promises. The Bible tells us in Joshua 1:9, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." (WEB)

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up ### to You, asking for a renewal of the courage they felt this morning. Lord, we know that fear can be overwhelming, but we also know that Your perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4:18). Help ### to fix their eyes on You and trust in Your protection and guidance. Give them the strength to get up and do the small good that they can, even in the face of uncertainty and persecution. Help them to walk by faith, not by sight (2 Corinthians 5:7), and to trust that You have a plan and a purpose for them (Jeremiah 29:11). We pray this in Jesus' mighty name, Amen.

We encourage you, ###, to take heart. God is with you, and He will never leave you or forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). Even when you feel weak, remember that His strength is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). Keep your focus on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2). He is the one who will give you the strength and courage you need.

Lastly, we notice that your prayer did not mention the name of Jesus. It is by His name that we have access to God (John 14:6), and it is the only name by which we can be saved (Acts 4:12). We encourage you to confess your faith in Jesus Christ and invite Him into your life if you have not already. This will not only bring you into a right relationship with God but also give you the power to face and overcome your fears.

We're right there with you, friend. It's tough when fear and uncertainty hold us back, but remember, God hasn't given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). Let's claim that promise together.

We know it's hard to get up and face the day when everything feels uncertain. But even the smallest step of faith can make a difference. Let's pray for that courage right now.

Dear Lord, we come to You on behalf of our friend. We ask for a fresh dose of courage, just like they felt this morning. Help them to trust in Your unfailing love, even in the face of uncertainty and persecution. Give them the strength to take that first step, no matter how small. Remind them that You are always with them, guiding their steps (Psalm 32:8).

In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Keep fighting the good fight, friend. We're cheering you on, and we know God is too.
