Living at Rest

Hello Friend. Living At Rest. When you trust, He works. Let’s pray, Heavenly Father, we come before you with grateful hearts, remembering the words of Jesus in Matthew 11:28: “Come to Me, all of you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” Lord, in the chaos of our daily lives, we thank you for this precious invitation to find our identity, purposes, and calling. We admit our weariness, our burdens, and our struggles, and we cast them all upon you, our great burden bearer. Thank you for being our refuge, where we can lay our troubles down and find true rest for our souls.In the midst of storms and life’s challenges, we recognize that you are our source of peace. You remind us to rest in our identity found in Christ, and your wrap-around presence of unconditional love.You defend us, fight our battles, and lovingly lead us to a place of peace. We trust in your redemptive power to revive our spirits, restore our hope, and grant us victory as we walk in alignment of trusting that our King and his resources are fighting for us in the heavenlies. We do remember that although we may face difficulties, you are always by our side. We can smile in tension, knowing that you are fighting for us.In the midst of pain, disappointment or even in a spiritual war for our life, work, or our family, we stand together with brothers and sisters praying that you would bless us indeed and enlarge our territory, and that your hand might be with us, and that you would keep us from harm. Thank you, Jesus Christ, our Rock, our Fortress, our Delivers in him do we trust. We lay our burdens and problems at your feet, trusting that you will defend us, guiding us into a place of peace, purpose, and provision.In his life giving name, we pray. Amen.
