Deeper Intimacy With God Through PrayerSample
Day 7: Wait Upon Him
“So persistence in prayer, proving our seriousness of purpose as we keep our requests before the throne day after day, becomes a vital lesson that all God’s people in every age need to learn.” (J. I. Packer)
My soul waits on You, O Lord—every expectation I have is from You.
Renew my strength as I wait. I know the plans and purposes of Your heart stand firm. I choose to put my hope in Your Word as I wait.
Even though there might be a delay before it’s revealed, I know it is truth. Thank You for Your patience with me—I’m sorry when I misunderstand. I acknowledge that I can’t even fathom the grand scope of what You’re doing, but I know You make all things beautiful in Your perfect timing.
