Saint Patrick’s Prayer of Protection

The Lord will fulfill His purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.—Psalm 138:8 (ESV)

Today, as we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, rejoice that God is an essential part of your life! Pray a portion of this beautiful prayer known as the Lorica of Saint Patrick:

Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,
Christ in the heart of everyone who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in the eye that sees me,
Christ in the ear that hears me.
I arise today
Through the mighty strength
Of the Lord of creation.

God Is with You

The Lord your God is going ahead of you…—Deuteronomy 1:30

IF YOU ARE facing difficulty, if you are discouraged, or disheartened about anything, just pray. You have a wonderful God who specializes in solving your problems. He’s waiting to hear from you and He’s ready to move on our behalf whenever we need Him. Take your trouble, whatever it is, keep praying until you feel God’s peace in your heart.

Dear Lord, I know You will never lead me into anything You won’t lead me through.

Bridge to a Better Life

David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.”—1 Samuel 17:45 (NIV)

When you feel out of options, draw wisdom and strength from God. Ask Him to help you find a way to break through whatever is blocking you. Appreciate that sometimes a setback is a bridge leading you to a better life.

Everlasting Father, when I feel trapped and out of options, stop me from limiting myself. Remind me that there is no obstacle too big for You to overcome.

Let the Spirit Lead

…For the Holy Spirit will teach you at that time what you should say.—Luke 12:12 (NIV)

Do you have a fixed idea of what the future holds? Instead of having your mind set on your plans, be open to what the Holy Spirit is conveying. Be attentive to opportunities He will bring your way. Is there someone whose burden you might lessen? Keep your eyes and your heart open!

Heavenly Father, today, make me aware of how I can best serve You.

Be Transformed

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.—Romans 12:2 (NIV)

When you feel confused or broken by life’s circumstances, listen to the voice deep inside your heart and turn to God’s Word. Steer away from the things you are doing that make you feel defeated. Instead, make good choices and form healthy habits that keep you on His path.

Heavenly Father, help me live a life that frees me from feeling as if I have to fit into the patterns of this world. Help me make choices that please You.

When Life Doesn’t Make Sense

“You said, ‘Listen now, and I will speak; I will question you, and you shall answer me.’”—Job 42:4 (NIV)

Job longed to understand God’s actions. Often when difficult times befall us, like Job, we want answers. Why did this happen? Faith will lead us to recognize that we can know and love God, yet we must accept that not all our questions will be answered.

Heavenly Father, help me find peace with all that is unanswered in my life.

So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith.—Galatians 3:26 (NIV)

Reset Your Spirit

“As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”—John 9:5 (ESV)

Today, after many have turned their clocks ahead for daylight saving time, consider the importance of light in your spiritual life. In the Bible, light represents the presence of God. Light gives us comfort and understanding. We strive to walk in God’s light. Today, take in the truth of this verse and reset your spirit to let in more of His glorious light.

Dear Lord, thank You for being the Source that brightens my life and the lives of those around me.

Right Where You Are Supposed to Be

He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart; yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.—Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NIV)

When you’re in a difficult situation, do you spend time overthinking every option and asking God why this is happening? The next time you are troubled by a situation, consider this verse. We have a limited view and perspective. God’s timing is always perfect. Trust Him. Be assured that He knows what He is doing. Be bold and reconnect with His strength. Approach the day with positivity!

Dear Lord, thank You for reminding me that I am exactly where I am meant to be.

Rise and Try Again

For though the righteous fall seven times, they rise again, but the wicked stumble when calamity strikes.—Proverbs 24:16 (NIV)

Making mistakes is a necessary part of living a fulfilled life; stumbling and falling are all a part of growing. Let go of any fear of failure, and focus on doing your best. Be proud of your wonderfully imperfect journey.

Lord God, if I become stuck because I am afraid of trying something new for fear of making a mistake, remind me that I am getting better every day. Remind me that mistakes pave the way to success.

Near the Broken-Hearted

The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles.—Psalm 34:17 (NIV)

When you face trials and feel discouraged, be assured that God can and will deliver you from your troubles. Jesus knows what it feels like to be brokenhearted and unaccepted. He understands the human experience of feeling misunderstood and rejected. Receive His comforting presence.

Heavenly Father, You are Lord of the broken. When loneliness strikes my heart, fill me with Your glorious presence.

Your Stronghold of Faith

The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.—Psalm 18:2 (NIV)

Unexpected and challenging changes—you lose a job or feel betrayed by a friend—can be difficult to cope with. Yet when you reflect on your journey, you recognize that despite your fear and resistance, the difficult times brought wisdom and compassion. Your faith grew, and so did your spirit.

Lord, comfort me and guide me when life takes an unpleasant turn. Help me accept what has happened and trust that You are in control.
