Praying from 2 Corinthians 7:5. Themes: Suffering, Perseverance, Fear

Dear Lord, as I come before you today, I am reminded of the struggles and afflictions that Paul and his companions faced in Macedonia. I pray that you would give me the strength and courage to face the challenges that come my way. Help me to trust in you and not be overcome by fear. May your peace that surpasses all understanding guard my heart and mind. I pray that you would be my refuge and strength in times of trouble. Help me to stand firm in my faith and not be shaken by the fightings that may come my way. Thank you for your constant presence and love. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
