PRAYER DEVOTIONS:
July 2026 Focus:
Preparing to Persevere By Living In
True Freedom By Faith In God and His Word
Dear Calvary Members and Friends,
Let us pray with confidence and boldness knowing that He hears and is faithful.
Good Morning Our Lord and Our Father,
As we begin this day, we are surrounded by the early blessings of the day. Thank You for waking us up this morning and allowing us to see and experience another day. Thank You for what we can see, say, smell, taste, and touch. Thank You that we are awake and aware enough to acknowledge who You are and that we are Yours. So, we ask that You would please liberate us from worrying about what might happen or about what someone may think or say, so we can be fully present in all areas of our lives. Unshackle us from the need to be in control and free us from being easily frustrated and filled with anxiety. Change our quick reactions into slower, kinder, and wiser responses. Help us to worry less and live a life of worship more. Father, You love us so much. Help us to fully understand in our spirits that we are free from the bondage of sin and free to love You, worship You, and live according to Your Word with all of who we are. This day, lead us and make it clear to us the strength You have given us in our innermost being to resist the enemy’s attempts to enslave us in our thinking, feeling, talking, and living. We desire to experience the true freedom in our souls that comes when we place all our trust and faith in You and live victorious lives. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
Good Evening Abba, Our Father,
Thank You for bringing us to this part of the day. Thank You for all the blessings we experience whether we were aware of them or not. Thank You for protecting us and keeping us all day. Heavenly Father, we surrender every burden and fear that tries to hold us back. Thank You for the gift of Jesus, whose sacrifice frees us from the weight of any mistakes, guilt, and shame from the day. Help us to understand the strategies of Satan who seeks to weaken our witness by causing us to doubt Your Word, Your abilities and Your character, and who wants us to question who we are in Christ. Keep us ever alert and aware of the power he seeks to gain over us when we are not prepared for spiritual warfare. When we are tired at the end of a busy or trying day or just trying to relax and have some fun, help us not to fall into any “stinking thinking” or be tricked into doing or saying anything that might give him a toehold, foothold, or stronghold in our lives. At all times, we desire to be clothed in Christ, constant in prayer and sensitive to the leading of Your Holy Spirit so that we may overcome the enemy, not by might, nor by power but by Your Spirit. Bless our rest and slumber this evening. In the name of the Lord Jesus we pray, Amen.
