Dear Lord, thank You for the example You have provided in the life of Abraham. The circumstances I am facing—the ones confronting me and my loved ones—are daunting and discouraging. But rather than turning away from them, I look squarely at the huge obstacles in front of me. With deep faith, I proclaim that You are greater than any problem challenging me right now. Instead of throwing up my hands in defeat, I call to You, O Lord. I ask You to bare Your arm, unleash Your power, and bring forth a victory. I proclaim that You are the One who gives life when death is looming. You are the One who creates, restores, and heals, bringing order where there is chaos. I trust in You. Help me not to weaken through unbelief, but to grow strong in faith, believing You will fulfill what You have promised. Amen.
