Prayer based on Psalms 44:22. Themes: Suffering, Persecution, Sacrifice
Dear Lord, I claim the promise that you have given us in Romans 8:36, that even though we are killed all day long and regarded as sheep for the slaughter, we are more than conquerors through you who loved us. I pray that you would strengthen us in the face of persecution and trials, and help us to stand firm in our faith, knowing that nothing can separate us from your love. May we always remember that you are with us, and that your promises are true. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Verse: Yes, for your sake we are killed all day long. We are regarded as sheep for the slaughter.
Psalms 44:22
This is a Promise. The verse is a statement of the suffering that the speaker and their companions endure for the sake of the reader. It is a promise that they will continue to endure this suffering, even to the point of death.
