Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that you would... Give hope to those who may be in despair today. Remind those in despair that it is only ignorance of God that's hopeless. Show those in despair the peace of trusting in Your Name. Strengthen those who are weak and depressed.

Heal the hurt in the heart of those who have lost a loved one. Refresh us with new insight from your Holy Word. When there seems to be no hope, show us what You see, Lord. May light break through their darkness. Give them hope greater than their fear. May the light of Hope break the chains of depression. Brighten their day by seeing the Light you bring men. Give them a little light to break the darkness that has them enslaved. Don't let them give up hope.

Replace feelings of futility with positive thoughts of victory. May hope spring up and bring them joy. Make the Source of Hope plain to them. Flood their life with Your joy. May they rejoice in You.

Show them your love in a special way today. Expand their capacity for joy. Give them victory today. Deliver them who are captive to their unbelief. Brighten their day through encouragement. Bring them out of hopeless situations Brighten their day with Son shine. Show them hope in the dark. In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen
