Your Nightly Prayer: Evening Prayers for Christians

God’s Light in Your Loneliness


Listen Later

We were created for connection. Even in the perfection of Eden, God saw that it was not good for Adam to be alone. Loneliness is more than a feeling—it can wound us deeply, especially when accompanied by betrayal, abandonment, or rejection. In this evening prayer and devotional, Britt Mooney reminds us that when loneliness presses in, call on Him. Still your heart. Let His light pierce the darkness. With Christ, you are never truly alone.

Scripture reassures us: God will never leave or forsake us (Deuteronomy 31:6). Jesus promised we would never be left as orphans (John 14:18). The enemy whispers, “No one sees you. No one cares.” Yet God’s truth says otherwise—He sees, He cares, and He is light even in our darkest moments.

Throughout the Bible, faithful men and women—Job, Joseph, David, Elijah, even Jesus—experienced seasons of deep loneliness. Each time, God met them there with His presence, love, and power. And He will do the same for you.

Tonight’s Scripture: Psalm 139:12 (NIV)

“Even the darkness will not be dark to you… for darkness is as light to you.”

🙏 Your Nightly Prayer

Heavenly Father,
You formed us for relationship in your loving image. You see us when we feel forgotten, abandoned, and rejected. You don’t leave us alone as orphans. You promise to stay with us, to comfort and strengthen us. In our loneliness, we call on You now. Speak truth against Satan’s lies. Be the light in our darkness. Thank You for Your amazing presence.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
