What do you do when life is difficult, prayers seem unanswered, and circumstances make it hard to see the goodness of God?

You remember.

In this episode of Devoted to Prayer, we pause to remember what God has already done and intentionally give Him thanks. Through Scripture and prayer, we reflect on God's faithfulness, mercy, grace, protection, provision and unfailing love.

This powerful prayer of thanksgiving is an invitation to shift our attention from what we lack to what God has already provided—from our circumstances to His character, and from disappointment to remembrance. “O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth forever.” — Psalm 107:1

If you are weary, discouraged, waiting, grieving, or simply need to be reminded of God's faithfulness, pray along with us and declare: “God has been good to me.”

Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. — Psalm 107:2 Listen, pray, remember, and declare the goodness of God.

Prayer for World Leaders and the Nations | A Powerful Prayer for Wisdom, Peace & Salvation

In this episode of Devoted to Prayer, we pray for world leaders, governments, nations, communities, and humanity as a whole. We ask God to give leaders wisdom, humility, discernment, courage, and a commitment to righteousness while praying for peace, justice, protection, and the vulnerable around the world. Most importantly, we pray for a spiritual awakening; that people would turn away from sin, turn toward God, encounter Jesus Christ, and come to the knowledge of the truth. As believers, we are called to pray for those in authority and to trust God's sovereignty over the nations. This prayer is an invitation to move beyond fear and discouragement and stand confidently on the truth of God's Word.

Scriptures include: 1 Timothy 2:1–4, Proverbs 21:1, Joel 2:12–13, Romans 12:21, Matthew 5:9, Matthew 6:10, John 12:32, Psalm 24:1, and 2 Chronicles 7:14.

Pray with us for our leaders. Pray for our nations. Pray for revival. And above all, pray that humanity would turn its heart back to God.
