A Prayer For Those With Heavy Burdens

A prayer Honoring Marriage
A prayer Honoring Marriage

Father, our faith rests in the finished work of Jesus at Calvary.  Because of His tremendous sacrifice our sins are forgiven and a place is reserved for us in heaven.  We also find rest from our unending troubles in this life as we respond to Jesus’ invitation:  “Come to Me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.” Help us to look to You for needed strength and an overcoming spirit as we daily encounter challenges and ongoing burdens. Burdens are lifted at Calvary for that is where Jesus bore not only our sins but also our sorrows. Praise be to You, our Father in heaven, who daily bears our burdens. Amen.

Father, the cares of this world often press in on us and weigh our hearts down.  It’s not your desire that we carry a heavy load because You are the Burden Bearer.  You use the difficult circumstances of our lives to bring glory to Yourself as You bring spiritual maturity into our relationship with You.  Our faith is strengthened and our understanding deepened as You take the evil that Satan hurls at us and turn it into glorious occasion for Your power to be released and deliverance to take place.  You are the same God who led us into battle that will also lead us to victory in Jesus name, Amen.
