Thank You, Father, for all the things You are accomplishing in the spiritual realm. We might not see it or understand it, but we believe that the darkness is passing away, and the true light is already shining. That true light is Jesus Christ, and He is being revealed in Your way and in Your time. He shines through the power of Your Word, the power of Your Spirit and the power of Your love.

There is so much we don’t understand, but You gave us the Lord Jesus Who is our Shepherd. He guides us and leads us safely through the dark, so we can be with You in the Light. Thank You that You are Sovereign, Lord and Creator, over all. There is no God besides You. No one can pluck us out of Your Hand. We are safe under the shadow of Your Wings, even when things are out of our control, when we don’t understand why, and when the future is unclear.

Help us to believe as if we already have the things we pray for. They already exist in the riches of Your grace, so give us the courage to reach past the darkness into the light, into Your Kingdom, and into the House of God where the brightness of Your Presence dwells. We thank You for it in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
