A Prayer for Inner Peace

Father in the name of Jesus,

I come today asking you for inner peace. Lord, everything around me seems to be in turmoil but I thank you because I know that you still have me in the palm of your hands.

So I pray that you would calm my thoughts and help me as I begin to focus my attention on you instead of on the problem.

For Lord you said in your word that you would keep me in perfect peace if I would keep my mind on you. So right now I purpose to concentrate only on you and your love for me.

I know that you would never leave or forsake me, so I can rest in the assurance that I am not alone. You are with me now and will continue to be with me always.

You said that you would not leave me comfortless, but that you would send me a comforter, the Holy Spirit.

I thank you right now Father that your Holy Spirit is comforting me even at this very moment.

I also thank you because regardless how things may appear on the surface, I know that all things are working together for my good according to your word.

I thank you for giving me peace, in Jesus name, Amen.
