Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the mighty name of Jesus, giving you all the glory and honor. We thank you for the examples of faith and victory that you have shown us through the lives of David, Moses, and Gideon. We are reminded of how you chose a shepherd boy, David, and used a simple stone to defeat the giant Goliath. We are reminded of how you chose an old man, Moses, and used a staff to defeat Pharaoh and his mighty army. We are reminded of how you chose Gideon and his 300 men, and with your power, they defeated the vast army of the Midianites using only trumpets.
Lord, we pray that you would work in our lives just as you did in the lives of these faithful servants. Help us to trust in your power and not in our own strength. Give us the faith to face our own giants, knowing that the battle is yours. Help us to remember that with you on our side, nothing is impossible.
Father, we ask for your guidance and direction in our lives. Just as you chose David, Moses, and Gideon, we pray that you would choose and anoint us for the tasks and challenges that lie ahead. Give us the wisdom to discern your will and the courage to step out in faith, even when the odds seem overwhelming.
Lord, we thank you for the assurance that the battle is yours. We surrender our fears, doubts, and anxieties to you, knowing that you are in control. Strengthen our faith and help us to rely on you completely.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
