“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,Creator of heaven and earth.20And blessed be God Most High,who has defeated your enemies for you.”

And Abram believed the Lord, and the Lord counted him as righteous because of his faith. Gen 15:6

Lord God my Father,

May I trust in you to have control of everything and not struggle for control. Lord, help me to develop an ever mindful awareness of your power and follow you, not try to lead you. May my faith overwhelm my own desires and follow yours in all areas.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Who gives intuition to the heart and instinct to the mind? Job 38:36

Lord God my Father,

You created me with a purpose. You placed instinct in me which I rarely followed in my youth. I wish to turn back to your original plan and away from my weak ways. Overwhelm me in your purpose and direct me back to the path that only brings you Glory.

I Jesus name I pray,

Amen.

He was angry because Job refused to admit that he had sinned and that God was right in punishing him.

If God were to take back his spiritand withdraw his breath,15all life would cease,and humanity would turn again to dust.

For I have not finished defending God!

“God is mighty, but he does not despise anyone!

Lord God my Father,

I know you are fair and just, it is my desire to not own my sin that brings my struggle. Lord God, you are everything good in my life, my poor choices hide you from me. Help me to stop doing your job and rest in only the task you have placed on me so I can live in your peace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

For I am like a tree whose roots reach the water,whose branches are refreshed with the dew.

“Have I tried to hide my sins like other people do,concealing my guilt in my heart?34Have I feared the crowdor the contempt of the masses,so that I kept quiet and stayed indoors?

Lord God my Father,

I am broken and alone. I try but fail, I feel alone. Lord God, Reveal your truth, open my eyes, move my hands, guide my thoughts. I hold on to my past and bring it into this day. Make this day new in your image alone. May I please you and delight in your presence.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

while I have breath from God,4my lips will speak no evil,and my tongue will speak no lies.5I will never concede that you are right;I will defend my integrity until I die.6I will maintain my innocence without wavering.My conscience is clear for as long as I live.

“God alone understands the way to wisdom;he knows where it can be found,

‘The fear of the Lord is true wisdom;to forsake evil is real understanding.’” Job 28-28

Lord God my Father,

May I be ever in your thoughts, may I seek your answer in all things. The wisdom I have came from you and there is so much more for me to seek.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

“But he knows where I am going.And when he tests me, I will come out as pure as gold. For I have stayed on God’s paths;
I have followed his ways and not turned aside. Job 23:10-11

Lord God my Father,

You know me, you know where I haven’t given you total control in my life. Today, Place my doubt in your care and allow me a glimpse of your power. I live broken hearted in my weakness, disappointing myself, family and you. May I have a day of victory, amazing victory. To you be the glory.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

Even if I have sinned,that is my concern, not yours. Job 19-4

Lord God my Father,

Purify my heart and put me in my place. Judgement is in your hands, help me to focus on my own sin and not try to fix others.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

You would call and I would answer,and you would yearn for me, your handiwork. For then you would guard my steps,instead of watching for my sins. Job 14-15

Lord God my Father,

Bring clarity to my thoughts and direction to my walk. May I focus on your path especially when it doesn’t make sense to me.

I Jesus name I pray,

Amen

You gave me life and showed me your unfailing love.My life was preserved by your care.

People who are at ease mock those in trouble.They give a push to people who are stumbling.

If only you could be silent!That’s the wisest thing you could do.

Lord God my Father,

You are the creator of all, I am yours to do with as you please. Protect my heart so I may rely on you for all, Help me be silent during trials so I may hear your lesson.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen

If only there were a mediator between us,someone who could bring us together. Job 9-33

Lord God my Father,

You are gracious beyond understanding. You gave me Jesus to make me clean enough to have a relationship with you. How heartbreaking it must have been for Job. Thank you for your grace.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
