Mighty God, I come before You today; my heart weighed down by disappointments. My life did not turn out as I expected. I feel let down.
I have failed in some way. I do not know how to cope with these disappointments. Part of me wants to blame everyone around me, part of me wants to give up in despair, and part of me wonders, why do I even bother?
Eternal Father, I ask that you heal my broken hearts and crushed spirits of the disappointments I face every day. Remove the heaviness within my hearts and give me the strength to forgive. Help me to release the past and continue moving forward.
Give me the power to look beyond the disappointments of now and remind me that everything happens for a reason. Remind me that you, oh Father, will make all things work together for our good.
Help me to remember that You always have great things in store for us. Lord, help me to be still and remember that you are God.
Mighty God, your Spirit prompts me in remembrance of your word. Romans 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is, given unto us.
You created everything to work together in perfect harmony. But ever since that day when Your instructions were, not followed, life has been, marred and broken by sin. Everything from the earth itself, to my body, to relationships, to my dreams, they all fail to work the way they are supposed to.
Eternal Father, forgive me for complaining about my situation. Forgive me for wallowing in my self-pity. Forgive me for my discontentment. Yes, I know why life is disappointing, and I should not be surprised. But what do I do with those disappointments? How do I wake up every day knowing that life will not work the way it is supposed to and that a struggle or trial will appear at some time in my future?
But, Mighty God, You thought me that in Isaiah 43:2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be, burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
Lord, I started with a burden of disappointments, and they have evaporated because You have spoken and told me in John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. In Jesus Name, Amen.
