Prayer for Joel 1:13

“Dress [in sackcloth] and lament, you priests; wail, you ministers of the altar. Come and spend the night in sackcloth, you ministers of my God, because grain and drink offerings are withheld from the house of your God.”

Praying through Joel 1:13

Heavenly Father, how blessed I am to have found my rest in You and to live under Your sufficient grace. Lord, there are times when I have failed to live righteously and I confess that I have not trusted You as I ought. Keep me from falling back into the sin of worry and unbelief, like the people of Israel. Prevent me from trying to sort out my life in my own strength, instead of trusting in Your Word. Thank You that You are my God and that in You I have all that I need for life and righteousness. Help me to walk in Your ways and honour Your holy name. In Christ's name I pray, AMEN.
