“A Prayer for Strength” was composed by Dr. Ken Boa, President of Reflections Ministries (https://www.kenboa.org)
The “Prayer for Strength“ is a powerful supplication to God, acknowledging that His word will always accomplish His divine will and purpose. In this prayer, we offer our petitions for strength based on the promises found in His eternal word. We are reminded that, although our human nature is frail and fleeting like the grass and flowers that fade, God’s word stands forever, and even when Heaven and Earth pass away, the words of Jesus will never pass away.
A Prayer for Strength
Father, the word that goes forth from Your mouth will not return to You empty but will accomplish what You desire and achieve the purpose for which You sent it. I offer to You these prayers for strength, based on Your word. Your word teaches that I am like the grass that withers and my glory like the flower that fades, but Your word, my God, stands forever. Even when Heaven and Earth pass away, the words of Jesus will never pass away. How blessed is the person whose strength is in You. As they pass through the valley, they go from strength to strength. God of Armies, hear my prayers for strength. Amen.
