THREE PRAYERS FOR CHRISTMAS

The Christmas season is a beautiful time to ponder all that we have in Christ. We are all blessed beyond measure to have been given the gift of Christ. He is our peace. He is our joy. He is everything.

On this beautiful Christmas Eve, I can imagine Christ speaking words of life such as these:

Slow down. Savor this moment of life. Put aside your concerns and simply rest in My love. I was born to redeem your life and give you perfect peace in your soul. I have come that you may have life and have it more abundantly. Enjoy the gift of my love today and for eternity.

A Prayer of Gratitude

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for the gift of Christ. Thank You for the gift of eternal life that You have given us through Jesus Christ. Thank You for sending Your Son as the perfect sacrifice to redeem us. Thank You for all that He gives us and how He enables us to live with an abundance of hope, joy, peace, and love. I give praise to our amazing Savior, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, and Prince of Peace. Let us continually rejoice over the gifts You have given us through a loving relationship with You. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!” 2 Corinthians 9:15

A Prayer for Peace

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for Your peace that surpasses all understanding. I ask You to guard our hearts and minds with Christ’s perfect peace. Let us take hold of all that You came to the earth to give us and help us live in harmony with each other. Let us look to You when we are grieving and let us trust You wholeheartedly to carry us through every trial. Help us turn away from fear, let us rest in knowing You do impossible things, and enable us to walk in strong faith until the day of Christ’s return. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

“And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:9

A Prayer for Protection

Our Beloved Jesus,

Oh, how we love and adore You, our Redeemer. Thank You for being our shield and protector. I ask You to surround our families with an army of angels. Protect us by the power of Your blood and keep us in the shadow of Your wings. Let us be keenly aware of Your love and presence this Christmas. Help us to rest in You and know that You watch over us as we trust You. Increase our faith and help us to release our burdens to You moment by moment. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

“He will cover you with His pinions, And under His wings you may seek refuge; His faithfulness is a shield and bulwark.” Psalm 91:4

As we celebrate Christ’s birth, the perfect gift we can give to our Lord is to continually love Him far above everything or anyone else. He deserves our highest honor and praise.

May your Christmas be filled with all of the glorious riches of Christ.

Hallelujah.
