Hope Wins: A 7-Day Prayer Journey Through God's WordSample

In Proverbs 3:5-6, we're reminded to trust in the Lord and to lean not on our own understanding. As we acknowledge God in all our ways, He will direct our paths and guide us toward the plans He has for us. But how can we apply this passage to our lives?

Practical application: One way to apply this passage to our lives is to cultivate a habit of surrender. As you go about your daily activities, ask God to guide your steps and show you His will for your life. Additionally, when you're faced with a decision or a challenge, pause and take some time to pray and seek God's guidance before making a choice.

Prayer request: Pray for hope and endurance for believers in Ukraine who are facing suffering and persecution, so that they would trust in the Lord's promises and have confidence in His power to redeem all things.

Lord, we pray for our brothers and sisters in Ukraine who are facing suffering and persecution. We ask that You would give them hope and endurance and that they would trust in Your promises. Help them to have confidence in Your power to redeem all things and to work all things together for good. We pray that their present sufferings would be nothing compared to the glory that will be revealed in them. May they cling to the hope that is in Christ Jesus, and may they be filled with Your peace that passes all understanding. In Jesus' name, we pray, amen.
