Fix Your Eyes on the Father

Devotional

Sometimes, our needs, wants, and desires can feel overwhelming. It’s not uncommon to rush into the Lord’s presence and begin to pour out what’s on our minds. But the Bible teaches us that we need to remember Who we are praying to. We might be weak, but He is strong. We might be needy but He has provision. And when we orientate our prayers around who He is and remind ourselves of His strength and provision, we are set up to pray with faith – even with a matter as difficult as infertility or childlessness!

Prayer

Lord God, as we begin this prayer devotional journey, we enter into Your gates with thanksgiving, and we enter into Your courts with praise. You are our great reward, our portion with which we are deeply satisfied. We come before Your throne because You are full of grace and mercy. Even if we are in a place of lack, even as we lack the children we desire, we can thank and praise You for who You are – for who You are does not change. We ask you to fill us with faith as we pray. As our loving Father, we request good gifts from Your hand. Stir trust up in us. Amen.
