Prayers From the Throne RoomSample

Thirsting for God

God, I want to know your heart more than anything else in this life. As I come after you today, may I be met by the overwhelming pleasure of your presence. I know that there is no reason to feel guilt, unworthiness, or inadequacy when I meet with you. You welcome me with open arms every time I turn to you.

As I lean into this journey of becoming closer to you through prayer, may the thirst of my soul grow, even as I am met by the Living Waters of your presence. You are the Fountain of Life within, filling me up with the reviving waters of your Word. You know that I love you, Lord Jesus. You know that I want to partner with you in prayer in the heavenly realm, echoing your heart in my life and in this world. Teach me to pray as you taught your disciples and give me your grace-strength to choose to press in even when I don’t feel like it. I long for deeper communion with you, and I know I will find it in the place of prayer. You are my Beloved Friend, and I offer myself as a living sacrifice today.
