Prayer based on Psalms 42:9. Themes: Lament, Trust in God, Oppression

Dear God, my rock and my refuge, I come to you today with a heavy heart. I feel forgotten and oppressed by the enemy. But I know that you have promised to never leave me nor forsake me. So, I claim that promise today and ask for your strength and comfort. Help me to trust in your unfailing love and to find peace in your presence. Thank you for being my rock and my salvation. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
