A Prayer During Times Of Trouble

Father, we want to trust You at all times – in times of rejoicing and times of trouble. You promise to be our refuge who will rescue us from danger. Certainly we don’t read anywhere in Scripture that we will not face danger, for it is in these intensely dangerous situations that we find refuge in the shadow of Your wings. Daily we witness Your rescue from dangerous situations on this side of eternity, but we also daily witness (by faith) Your rescue that takes place on the other side of eternity, when a believer crosses over from this sin-filled, weary world and steps onto the eternal green pastures of glory land. May our faith increase and our devotion deepen as we lean hard on You until that promotion day. Amen.
