Our Daily Prayer for Monday - Millie McFarland

But let all those rejoice who put their trust in You;
Let them ever shout for joy, because You [a]defend them;
Let those also who love Your name
Be joyful in You.
For You, O Lord, will bless the righteous;
With favor You will surround him as with a shield.
— Psalm 5:11-12

Scripture & Prayer Submitted by: Millie McFarland

Holy Father, we come humbly before you to give you honor and praise. We come seeking your Holy face. Believing you have everything under control. Our hope and peace is in you.

Father, we turn aside and hide ourselves in you. Open the eyes of our hearts so we can see you high and lifted up; shining in the light of your glory. Father you are Holy; overshadow us with your presence. Bring us under your covering; that we may find your everlasting joy, comfort and peace.

Father, we rejoice in your endless joy as You cover us with your kindness and love. Father, we trust in you, for You are our righteousness and You are our shield. Lord, we thank you for you protect us from the wiles of the enemy; in you we find safety. 

Heavenly Father, the times we are living in are difficult, but we know you are God. The word says, "no weapon formed against me shall prosper", so we stand on your word. Lord, we believe you are more than able of keeping us safe during these times; we rebuke the devourer and plead the blood over him. We command him to flee in Jesus name.

Father, I pray that you give everyone hope, peace and your unspeakable joy. I pray that they may sing praises and rejoice in you. I ask that you be their buckler and shield. Minister to each at the point of their need. I pray that when they get overwhelmed, that they cry out to you and find peace in your wings. Father, I pray for the repentance of each so they may know you in the fullness of your glory. Father forgive each of us if today we have offended you. 

Heavenly Father, I thank you for each reader and for their families. Lord you know each of them and what they are facing; be with each of them and reassure them you are there. I turn them each to you and I thank you for hearing our prayer. In Jesus name we Pray. Amen
