Desperate Prayers For Desperate TimesSample

DAY 1: God Hears Your Desperate Prayers

We all go through hard times—some more desperate than others. Sometimes we look over into other people’s lives and it seems like things are going well, but even they have trouble. None of us is exempt.

But as a believer you have a special advantage. Because of Jesus, you can boldly approach the throne of God and find help in your time of need. You can go before God and petition for His grace, favor, comfort, strategy, help, wisdom, encouragement, and answers for yourself. And when you pray, He hears you.

But you already know that. And yet, somehow the answer, the breakthrough, the release has not come, and you are getting more desperate by the day to hear from God.

I pray that what you read will give you what you need to press in more, persist more, and believe more for the miracles God will perform in response to this season you are facing. Let God do His work in you so that you can experience a level of blessing that outmatches the troubles you will overcome.

When God sees you in your desperate condition, He looks upon you with mercy and compassion. He heals the brokenhearted. He lifts up the lowly. To those who are weak, He says, “I will give you My strength.”
