Heavenly Father, this is a time of great emotions. As Advent is upon us and
Christmas draws near, some feel excitement, some feel peace and hope, some feel
anxiety, some feel dread and doubt, and some just want some guidance and
clarity. This can be a time of great comfort for some, but also a time that people
experience their losses and grief’s more than ever. We thank you that you are
with us through it all, experiencing all that is happening in our world along side
us. As we lift up all of our joys, pains, thoughts, and desires to you this week, hear
our prayers and respond to them in your own time. We now lift up these prayers
to you:
A prayer for success of 315 Café.
To be free from the burden that burdens others so I can be myself instead of the
enemy. Inside of me I am trapped by what’s outside of me.
Lord I am so stressed. My time in the great city of Philadelphia is coming to a close
(for now) and with that comes great sadness and stress. The center I’m involved in
has much to do before I can go home. Lord, please give me peace and strength to
get this work done and say goodbye for now. I love this community so much. I will
always have my prayers with you, for you have always been there for me.
I am afraid to let myself sit and be silent. I am afraid to be alone and to quiet my
thoughts to listen to the Lord.
God I left up to you in Pray for my Family, Friends, and self. My Health, job, and to

Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, Prepare us for your coming.
This Advent season, my intentions are geared to come back to the Father’s love and
cleanse my inner being from resentment and the dark spiritual clutter.
God, help me to open my heart, to believe, to trust that I am loved, and to let it in.
Help me to give love freely.
Lord Father in heaven thank you for allowing me to be in your presence his evening.
I thank you so much for protecting and loving me and my family. Lord God I pray
that you take this fear away from my heart. Please tell me, show me what I should
do. I am so conflicted. I pray Lord God that you show me the light and retain peace
in my life. Lord send me another employment opportunity where I can thrive.
Lord heal my soul and be with me please protect me as I travel. Please listen to the
prayers of my loved ones. Thank you Lord God. I appreciate you. Amen.
How long, O Lord, will you hide your face from me forever? Make the things which
are complete and prepare my soul for what’s next. For your glory, forever.
Please pray for those who have helped me grow in my faith.
Oh Father,
Upon you is my foundation built and it is firm so I can reach others, I am no
longer standing in sand. I no longer in sand unable to reach any one.
Our family really needs God’s guidance on what to do about our church situation.
Right now it is unclear what to do, but I feel like we are trying to figure it out on our
own, and I’m pretty sure that’s not right.
Loving father,
You have provided for me a life that is better than I could have imagined.
Thank you! Right now I feel pulled in so many directions; don’t know where to focus
and just feel anxious. That is not your will for me and I am not focusing on your
peace. Please shine through my misguidance. I love you. I praise you for your
faithfulness.
Lord you know my faults, my failings. I feel I have failed much recently in word,
in deed. Forgive me Jesus teach me what you have taught me before – how to be
faithful.
Make me more loving, slow to find fault & quick to forgive.
I need prayer for my grandmother’s health.
Dear God, I have been forced to think about health over the past few weeks. It’s
something I’ve always taken for granted, but realize now that it’s something to be
thankful for. I want to thank you for my own health as well as that of my family and
friends. Amen.
A prayer that during this Christmas Season people receive what they really need.
Wonderful Savior, comfort, guide, lead, bring hope, and make us whole.
We desire for our lives to be made complete, to have jobs, to be warm and safe, to
be healthy and to be close to our family and friends. We need your healing
power, for our physical needs, but also in our relationships, in our emotions, and
in our attempt to follow you. Work in these situations and be present at this
time, transforming us and our world. Be with our loved ones and those who are
vulnerable in our community. Show us how we can better follow you and serve
the world around us.
As we remember that we did not come to you, but that you came to dwell
and live with us, we praise you for how much you have already accomplished
and are still doing and will be doing. Thank you Lord for hearing our prayers.
May we hear your call, feel your hand of strength and support, and rejoice in the
knowledge of your love and grace. Amen.
