Pandemic Prayers: Seven-Day Family Prayer Guide

DAY 4 OF 7

Day 4: Pray for opportunities to be a light in the darkness

As we are limited in our daily happenings, everything around us seems uncertain. It’s unsettling when schools are cancelled, churches can’t meet, and we’re told to stay at home and avoid seeing many of the people whom we love most.

But as Christians, our hope is in Jesus. In the middle of darkness and uncertainty, it is hope in Christ that our world needs most. When life seems chaotic, God still has complete control over all things (Psalm 22:28). He created us and loves us enough to sacrifice everything so that we might live forever (John 3:16)!

We now have an opportunity like never before, to shine God’s light in the darkness. These times allow us to share with others why we have joy in the midst of trouble. Pray that you won’t miss a single chance to share the light of Jesus. Recognize the uncertainty of today as an opportunity for Kingdom work. 

Jesus, you alone change lives. You alone give eternal life and save us from death. You gave your life so that we might live an eternal life in heaven. Lead us to share our hope in you with our peers. Reveal to us the places where you would have us shine your light to those facing dark days.
