Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie, and it's time for us to
- 0:02Speaker 1: go to God in prayer, and as always I invite
- 0:05Speaker 1: you to join along with me in prayer. You know,
- 0:09Speaker 1: I think about the many testing trials I've gone through
- 0:13Speaker 1: in life. There's always a lesson to be learned. And
- 0:18Speaker 1: I pray that you don't just go through trials in life,
- 0:22Speaker 1: that you live through it, first of all, but that
- 0:24Speaker 1: you grow through it, that you learn the lesson. So
- 0:27Speaker 1: you have to go around that mountain again so that
- 0:29Speaker 1: you could grow and learn and mature. That's my prayer
- 0:33Speaker 1: for me as well. Heavenly Father, in the name of
- 0:35Speaker 1: Jesus Christ, we come before you today with hearts that
- 0:38Speaker 1: are heavy, spirits that have been tested in lives, that
- 0:41Speaker 1: have faced them storms. Lord, Sometimes the challenges we encounter
- 0:46Speaker 1: feel so big, they feel too big, and we'll be honest,
- 0:49Speaker 1: too painful, too overwhelming. Yet here we are standing because
- 0:54Speaker 1: you are faithful. We thank you Father that no matter
- 0:58Speaker 1: what we go through, you are with us every step
- 1:02Speaker 1: of the way. Lord. We pray for strength to live
- 1:06Speaker 1: through it, to endure the trial, to withstand the precures,
- 1:10Speaker 1: and to keep walking even when the path is hard.
- 1:13Speaker 1: Teach us to trust you when we don't understand the why,
- 1:17Speaker 1: when doors close, when plans change, and when disappointments threatened
- 1:21Speaker 1: to weigh us down. Remind us that endurance is not passive,
- 1:26Speaker 1: It is active faith in your power, your love, and
- 1:30Speaker 1: your promises. Father, we also pray to grow through every situation.
- 1:36Speaker 1: Let every trial teach us patience, every challenge develop our character,
- 1:41Speaker 1: and every struggle deepen our faith in You. Transform pain
- 1:45Speaker 1: into wisdom, set backs into strength, and confusion into clarity.
- 1:50Speaker 1: Help us to see that nothing God, no thing, not
- 1:55Speaker 1: one situation, is wasted in your hands. That every story
- 2:00Speaker 1: on we survive is preparing us for the purpose that
- 2:03Speaker 1: you have for our lives. Oh Lord, forgive us. Forgive
- 2:08Speaker 1: us for the times we try to rush the process
- 2:11Speaker 1: or bypass the lesson that you're teaching us. Open our eyes, God,
- 2:16Speaker 1: so that we can see the opportunities hidden within the hardships,
- 2:19Speaker 1: and open our hearts to receive your guidance, your correction,
- 2:24Speaker 1: and even your grace. God, let us not just survive
- 2:28Speaker 1: life's triumph, but to thrive in the growth that you're
- 2:32Speaker 1: producing on the inside of us. Father, remind us that
- 2:36Speaker 1: we're not defined by the struggles we face but by
- 2:39Speaker 1: the God who carries us through the struggles. God, let
- 2:43Speaker 1: our lives be testimonies that others can see that no
- 2:46Speaker 1: matter the battle, no matter the pain, with You, we
- 2:50Speaker 1: can endure, we can overcome, and we can grow stronger.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Oh Lord, Today we declare that we will live through it,
- 2:56Speaker 1: that we will grow through it, that we will glorify
- 2:59Speaker 1: You in the process. Let your power sustain us, your
- 3:03Speaker 1: love uphold us, and your spirit guide us every step
- 3:07Speaker 1: of the way. In Jesus' name. Amen, Amen, Amen,
