Shared Prayer

O Lord, who hears and answers prayers You are the Lord God our strength, and You can make our feet like hinds feet, and cause us to walk upon our high places. For the one who feels weak, under pressure, or afraid to take the next step, strengthen the inner man and lift the heavy weight of discouragement. Train our steps to be sure and obedient, and raise us above the thoughts that say we will fall or fail. With God nothing shall be impossible, so we refuse despair and we look to You for power to endure and to overcome. We declare and decree that fear will not rule our minds, and that Your strength will carry us through what we cannot do alone. Thank You for being faithful, for giving courage, and for establishing our feet in peace. Amen, and Amen.
