Bring the lack to Jesus and ask him to provide

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit my sin and my need for you. I turn from trusting myself and from every false source that cannot satisfy me. I believe you died for my sins and rose again. I confess you as Lord and ask you to give me the life only you can give. Come into my life and lead me from this day forward. Amen.

Come to Jesus for Life

Lord, revive your Church where we have trusted our own hands more than your mercy. Make us humble enough to admit our poverty and eager enough to ask you for the life only you can give. Let our hunger for you become a witness to a thirsty world, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Revive Your Thirsty Church

Father, when I feel empty-handed and unable to meet the need before me, draw me back to Jesus. Supply what I cannot produce, and give me peace while I wait for your answer, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

When I Feel Empty-Handed

Name one place where you feel unprepared. Then ask God, in simple words, where the help will come from and what he wants you to trust him for today.

Pray Before You Assume

Thank God for Jesus' patience with honest questions, for his ability to give life where human resources run out, and for the mercy that meets us at the point of our limits.

Gratitude for Christ's Provision

Pray for someone who feels blocked by a deep problem and no resources: that they would bring the need to Jesus, receive his life-giving help, and not lose heart while waiting.
