Keep taking the next faithful step and ask God for help

Pretend the pressure is not there and keep going

Treat calm weather as the only sign of faithfulness

If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I know I have sinned and I need your mercy. I turn from my sin and trust that you died for me and rose again. I believe you are the Lord, and I give you my life. When I am overwhelmed and far from safety, come into my life and save me. Amen.

Save Me and Lead Me

Lord, revive your Church when the winds are against us. Where we have grown weary, make us steadfast. Where fear has battered us, strengthen our faith. Unite us, renew our compassion, and keep us moving toward you in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Renew Your Church in the Wind

Father, when I feel far from shore and hit by wave after wave, steady my heart. Quiet my fear, give me courage for the next step, and keep me close to you in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Steady Me on the Water

Name the place where you feel pushed back, ask God for steadiness, and ask for one next faithful step you can take today.

Pray for the Next Faithful Step

Pray for: people who feel far from safety; believers facing strong opposition; those who are exhausted by repeated setbacks; grace for your church to keep trusting God when the wind is against it.

For Those Under Pressure

Father, thank you that you see us when we are far from shore. Thank you that no wave is beyond your care and no wind beyond your power. Teach me to trust you in rough water and to keep following you in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank You for Your Care in the Storm
