We need endurance. - yeshuaboy - 01-18-2015 07:41 AM
Eternal One, we praise Your holy name this day. You are Almighty Elohim. You are all-powerful, omnipotent Lord of heaven and earth. There is nothing too hard for You. Great are You, Adonai, and mighty in power, Your understanding is infinite. We know that because You can do anything, no plan or purpose of Yours for our lives can held back. You have a mighty arm and You rule with power. You are the potter and we are the clay, and we give You full power over our lives to mold us as You see fit. We surrender our lives to You and release it into Your hands.
Elohim of Strength, we know a relationship with You is not like a hundred meter sprint, one quick burst and it's finished. But rather, You desire a relationship with us like a marathon, covering every day of our lives. We confess that our endurance is lacking right now. We get distracted too easily. We get discouraged, we feel self-sufficient. We take things for granted and forget to be thankful, especially to You.
Elohim of Truth, You know the unhealthy dynamics that we have allowed to accumulate in our lives, slowing our pace and causing us to stumble. We ask You that You would grant us the resolve and the grace to rid ourselves of habits and attitudes that keep us from fully serving and loving You. We pray that You give an undeafatable spirit that learns to run long distances without grumbling, ready and willing to go as far and long as You ask of us. We know we can't just manufacture this mindset, so in faith we ask that You increase and develop what strength You have already given us.
Thank You, gracious Father, that You await us at the ultimate finish line of life with an embrace and crown that will last forever. Because of Your grace in Your Son, Yeshua, the Messiah, the Anointed One, the Lion of Judah, the Root of David, the One who has conquered and is able to break its seven seal and open the scroll. Amen, so be it. Halleluyah.
