A shared prayer for all who feel tested and torn…
Dear God,
Thank You for seasons of divine testing. Thank You for never hesitating to test us when You are ready for us to step into a new chapter of life. Most importantly, Thank You for allowing every test offered to be an open book test, with You as our teacher, revealing truth of what needs improvement or removal.
We pray that You will listen to all our asks through these tests and hear us through our times of challenge. We ask that You will grant us Your peace, Your grace and Your strength. May it rain down over us especially in times of weakness or vulnerability, easing our sensitive hearts and our minds as we might sometimes feel like these tests are more than we can bear. Help us to understand Your purpose.
Holy Spirit, we ask that You would draw near to us, lead us, guide us and shield us in all truth, allowing us to witness Your works and Your light as You reveal why these tests are necessary for our continued lifetime.
We pray You silence the voice of the enemy who has been trying to convince us that this test is going to break us. It’s not. In Your name, we ask that You remove all that is not of You, or part of Your plan for us. No matter what challenges we face, may we hear Your words, and understand that any test was “not” designed to break us, but only to assist in washing away any past flesh in order to become a new being moving forward, strengthening our souls preparing us for a place in heaven.
Holy Spirit, help us to stay in understanding of every test, for on the other side we will see and live in your reward.
Please bless us Lord in every way that even our own words can’t describe. In Jesus’ name, amen.
