Prayer for today from my book: “Life-Changing Water: Chaos to Glory: A Metaphor Study.” As things change in the news, as COVID infections soar, as the stroke of a pen changes our culture, remember God is good, God is eternal, and we are in His care. “Almighty Father, Abba, Father, strong to save, we pray for your deliverance from anything which gets in the way of our total worship of You in this day. Clear our minds of lesser thought so we may stay our minds on You. Cleanse our hearts from disobedience, so we may fully follow You. Take control of any situations which occupy our thoughts when we’re awake or asleep, and redeem those thoughts to concentration on You and Your mercy toward us, Your people. We pray Satan away from our portals: our minds, our leisure, our homes, our relationships, our careers, our plans. Take over the reins, Lord, to Your infinite glory. Amen.” The chapter continues: “Whatever is troubling to our souls today, whether it be grief, pain, discouragement, depression, addiction, financial insecurity, or some other symptom of a broken world, the Lord can move mountains, rechannel rivers, send angels, proclaim or divert a weather-related incident or system, or provide a saint to pray. Absolutely nothing can prevent or delay God’s will for deliverance. Count on it. God is in charge of His universe, and hears every prayer.”
