A Series on prayer

Prayer of Thanks

Thank God! Pray to him by name!
Tell everyone you meet what he has done!
Sing him songs, belt out hymns,
translate his wonders into music!
Honor his holy name with Hallelujahs,
you who seek God. Live a happy life!

Psalm 105: 1-4

Prayer of Praise

Prayer through Doubts

Yet I am always with you;
you hold me by my right hand.
You guide me with your counsel,
and afterward you will take me into glory.
Whom have I in heaven but you?
And earth has nothing I desire besides you.
My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.

Psalm 73:21-26

A Prayer of Confession

Blessed is the one
whose transgressions are forgiven,
whose sins are covered.

Psalm 32:1

A Prayer of Lament

“My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
My God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer,
by night, but I find no rest.
But I am a worm and not a man,
scorned by everyone, despised by the people.
All who see me mock me;
they hurl insults, shaking their heads.
Do not be far from me,
for trouble is near
and there is no one to help.”

Psalm 22:1-11

A Prayer for Anxiety and Fear

1 O Lord, how many are my foes!
Many are rising against me;
2 many are saying of my soul,
“There is no salvation for him in God.”
3 But you, O Lord, are a shield about me,
my glory, and the lifter of my head.

Psalm 3: 1-3
