Mercy Overflowing: Psalm 31 Prayer
Heavenly Father,
My heart is filled with gratitude for Your sweet love that surrounds me like a protective shield!
“In you, Lord, I have taken refuge; let me never be put to shame; deliver me in your righteousness.”
You are my refuge and my strength, my safe haven in the midst of life’s storms.
I plead for Your deliverance and protection in every situation I face.
In moments of turmoil and doubt, I find peace in Your promise to hear my cries for help.
“Turn your ear to me, come quickly to my rescue; be my rock of refuge, a strong fortress to save me.”
Thank You, Lord, for Your attentive ear and Your unchanging love that sustains me through every trial.
Grant me the grace to surrender to Your perfect timing and Your divine plan, even when the path ahead seems obscured.
“But I trust in you, Lord; I say, ‘You are my God.’ My times are in your hands; deliver me from the hands of my enemies, from those who pursue me.”
May my trust in You deepen with each passing moment, as I acknowledge Your sovereignty over my life.
Lead me by Your Spirit, O Lord, and direct my steps along the paths of righteousness for Your name’s sake.
“Let your face shine on your servant; save me in your unfailing love.”
Illuminate my way with Your presence, Lord, and envelop me in Your unfailing love, that I may walk in Your truth and grace all the days of my life.
In the precious name of Jesus, I offer this prayer.
Amen.
