God has blessed me with a love for His Word and has inspired me to use it in countless ways. One of the ways is using His Scripture to give to parents who are expecting, a prayer to pray for the gift of God who is in the womb. On another occasion it was a prayer for a couple getting married, for graduates of high school or college, a valentine from the Lord etc. I have not kept track of how many of these I have given but I would like to share one of them today in this post. We are drawing near to graduation time so this is for graduates, please feel free to share with anyone that God lays on your heart.
Isn't it comforting to know that the One who commands the morning and causes the dawn to know its place is the very One who dwells within you?
As you step into the unknown of your future, facing challenges that you have never before faced, isn't it comforting to know that the One who walks beside you is Absolute Sovereign over the entire universe and He promises to direct your steps?
When you face decisions that are eternal in nature, isn't it comforting to know you belong to the One who puts wisdom in the innermost being and gives understanding to the mind? Isn't it comforting to know that godly wisdom is yours for the asking?
In those times that you feel all alone, isn't it comforting to know that He has promised in His Word that He will never leave you, fail you or forsake you?
When fear and anxious thoughts press in on you, isn't it comforting to remember you belong to the Prince of peace and He has given you His peace that passes all understanding? His peace that stands guard over your mind and heart.
When no one seems to know your name or even care, isn't it comforting to know that Almighty God has your name engraved on the palms of His hands? And His eyes and His thoughts are always toward you because you are His chosen child!
When you sometimes doubt yourself or your abilities isn't it thrilling to know that God loves you completely, He doesn't condemn you, He called you by name and justified you in His sight forever?
Isn't it encouraging to know that absolutely nothing can separate you from God's love for you? Not life, not death, not any created thing, for His love for you is through His Son Jesus Christ, you are His, bought and paid for through His blood that was shed for you!
Isn't it wonderful to know that as you embark on this new phase of your life His presence is continually with you, and there is no where that you can go that His presence will not be with you.
(You fill in the name), Jesus Christ loves you with an everlasting love! He began the good work in you and He will be with you every step of the way. He will complete the work He began in you and one day He will enable you to stand in His presence; blameless with great joy! How awesome is your Lord!!!
All of the scriptures used are available for you, if you request them in comments.
