bible quote on inner peace
(a prayer for calmness with nerves and anxiety)
Holy Spirit, please encircle me,
Come hold me safe and secure.
Wrap my mind up with your truth
Guide my thoughts and calm my fears.
Steady my emotions,
Lord that you would guide my feelings,
May I not be overcome by upset.
Sustain my soul,
With vision for the future,
And hope for tomorrow.
I need you.
Amen.
(a prayer for those who are nervous or anxious about flying)
Dear God,
Please watch over me as I fly out today. May your hand be on the pilot and crew, your strength be in the engineers that prepare the plane and your wisdom over the control teams on the ground.
I choose to trust in you, and give you my fears and anxieties. May I find peace as I travel. Take my heart on a journey of trust and hope as I look out over the beautiful world you have made.
I travel with you.
Calm me and cover me,
Amen.
Night Prayer
a prayer to say to receive God's peace before sleeping:-
(a prayer to calm common fears e.g. driving, surgery, fear of losing your job etc.)
O Lord, scripture tells me "have no fear"
And I want to hear and say yes!
But as life threads its way,
And my circumstances change
I confess that I'm feeling so stressed.
O Lord, may I cling to the promise you give,
Of a peace that surpasses it all.
Come calm this troubled heart
May I never depart,
From you Lord, whatever befalls.
O Lord, I am never alone,
My Shepherd, my Father, my King.
So I'll walk in your way,
and promise each day
To live in the freedom you bring.
Amen.
prayer for peace of mind
a simple prayer to help find God's peace during troubled times:-
"That is why I tell you not to worry about everyday life-whether you have enough food and drink, or enough clothes to wear. Isn't life more than food, and your body more than clothing? Look at the birds. They don't plant or harvest or store food in barns, for your heavenly Father feeds them. And aren't you far more valuable to him than they are? Can all your worries add a single moment to your life?"
(Matthew 6:25-27, NLT)
"I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit."
(Romans 15:13, NLT)
"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."
(1 Peter 5:7, NIV)
