Shared Prayer

Father of light, in whom there is no darkness Your Word says, I will look unto the Lord, I will wait for the God of my salvation, and You will hear me. We turn our eyes from panic and noise, and we look to You. For the believer who has been praying and feels unheard, for the one worn down by delay and pressure, strengthen faith to wait without bitterness and without giving up. God is faithful, so we refuse despair and we refuse unbelief. Answer us with mercy and truth, and let Your voice cut through confusion. In the name of Jesus, we bring our need to You and trust You to respond in the way that saves and restores. Thank You for hearing the cries we cannot fully explain, and for being our salvation when our strength is small. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with us all. Amen.
