Our Daily Prayer for Sunday - Millie McFarland

For you created my inmost being;
you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful,
I know that full well.
— Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV)

Scripture & Prayer submitted by: Millie McFarland

Holy and Righteous God, I come before you in total praise and adoration. I thank you for who you are and all that you do. You are my praise and my righteousness; in you alone I trust. 

Father, you know me inside and out. You know the innermost part of me, because you created me. Father you know my flaws and my shortcomings so I pray that you help me overcome them. Teach me to do your will. It is my desire to please you and to be acceptable in your sight. 

Father, I thank you for seeing in me beyond what people see. For I am your workmanship; I am Fearfully and Wonderfully made according to your image. You knew me in my mother's womb and you know my destiny. I praise and thank you for keeping me in your path. You are my strength and my shield.

Father, I lift me eyes towards you, for you are my help and my defense in times of trouble. Today, I pray for all those that need reminding that you created them and you love them. I ask that you be their shield of defense as they face these turbulent times. Remind them that they are loved and that you care about what they are going through. Supply all of their needs and heal all of those facing any kind of affliction. Restore hope to the hopeless and reconcile them back to you.

I thank you Abba Father, for hearing my prayer and for loving me like no one else can. I praise and worship you in your Holy throne room, as I lay this prayer at your feet. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray.

Amen
