Praying from 1 Corinthians 16:7. Themes: Hope, Lord’s Will, Fellowship.

Dear Lord, I claim the promise in your word that says, “For I do not wish to see you now in passing, but I hope to stay a while with you, if the Lord permits.” I pray that you permit me to stay in your presence for a while longer. I long to spend more time with you, to hear your voice, and to feel your love. Please grant me the privilege of staying in your presence and experiencing your goodness. Thank you for your promise and for your faithfulness. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
