A Pandemic Season Prayer

LORD JESUS, in your mercy, hear our prayers and empower us for things beyond ourselves. Be perfect strength in our weakness. In that way, we will be encouraged and the world will know that You are the Source of everything strong and good.

Our comfort zones are being stretched and moved. Our routines are changing and connections being thinned. Amidst all of the shifting of calendars and lifestyles, You are our anchor. You are the stable foundation — the One who remains the same yesterday, today and forever — always trustworthy and compassionate. You are our Constant in the chaos — the Way Maker, Miracle Worker, Promise Keeper, Light in the Darkness.

Please grant Your wisdom to all those making decisions about events, planning logistics and navigating communications. In all of the cancellations and postponements, work for good what the enemy has meant for evil. Heighten our spiritual, mental and emotional “radar” to see Your mercies and perfection in life’s details.

Help us to trust You for the needs of our bodies as well as the needs of our MINDS and SOULS. Remind us that You care far more for our children and loved ones than we do. Still the panic and quiet the lies that stir unreasonable fears and anxiety. We want to live as shrewd and cautious servants while remaining courageous and firm in our conviction that Your Kingdom purposes will always prevail.

When we feel restless and lonely, teach us to lean into You first and foremost. Make this an opportunity for us to be more convinced than ever that You are deeply personal and entirely reliable. We want to know You more intimately and experience You more tangibly and see Your power displayed majestically. This will be for our good but for Your glory.

Change us, Lord God. Cause this temporary season to transform us for the better. We want to be teachable in the circumstances and moldable in Your creative hand so that nothing of this trial is wasted.

Thank you, holy Father. Your peace is not illusive. We can receive it deeply in this time of quieting. Our souls are still in You. Our deep breaths and exhales bring deeper joy. And the joy of the Lord is our strength.

Halleluiah and Amen!
