Jesus, I am heartfully and prayerfully expressing my unswaggering confidence in Your ways. Your presence is my delight. Your nearness is my guide. Let Your will be done in my life and through my soul’s transformation. Your likeness is my destiny. Your renown is my desire. I know that You will come at exactly the right time. I do not wait upon You in vain. Though I tarry in adversity that brings dark nights of the soul, I trust in Your promises. In quiet patience, I brace myself against the adversity by finding consolation in Your Word. Keep me from rebelling to find relief. Help me accept the hardest lesson with a teachable heart. I bless You for Your patience with me, Lord. Keep my tongue from murmuring against You as your people did in days of old. Let me stand with simple faith and declare You are my God. Though I am brought to extremities, nevertheless, You are my defender. My heart is fixed upon You as I linger in prayer with the full conviction that my joy and salvation comes from You alone. I know not what to do but I belong to the One who does. Your ways are higher, Lord. Your ways are good. Your ways never fail. I trust in You, knowing that I will soar on wings like an eagle. Under the blessed truth in Isaiah 40:31 and the authority of Christ, I pray.
Yet those who wait for the Lord Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.
Isaiah 40:31, NASB
