When You Need to Transcend


15 Prayers Until Christmas

<Day 14>

ABOVE & BEYOND

"You make Your angels
A flaming fire --
They lift me UP,
They carry me HIGHER --
Above and Beyond
My temporal distress,
Bringing Heaven's peace
To all my stress --
Scattering fear, worry and all the rest.
Yes I believe,
Yes I am blessed!
Amen."

Sweet Sleep

PRAYER Zzz

"As upon this pillow I lay my head,
I ask You to place angels by my bed;
I call to mind the words You said
And all that Jesus did in my stead --
So every fear and care now I shed.

The day You gave was truly a blessing --
You taught me so many positive lessons;
At each turn there was Your presence
And now with peace I am resting,
Thank You for this wonderful refreshing.
Amen."

PRAY UP

"When my spirit is thirsty,
You fill my cup.
When I'm trending down,

By faith I receive it.
You sent Your Word --
Lord, I believe it.
Amen."

Or tight the bind,
I know the battle is Yours
And Victory is mine!
