Guided Prayer
One · Pause
Be still for a moment. Breathe in slowly, and out slowly — three times. There is no hurry here, and no one is watching.
Be still, and know that I am God.
Psalm 46:10 · KJV
Two · Check in
What do you want to hurry along right now?
Three · Scripture · King James Version
“Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.”
Psalm 37:7 · KJV
“Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer;”
Romans 12:12 · KJV
“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:”
Ecclesiastes 3:1 · KJV
Four · Reflection
There is a season for everything, and rushing rarely ripens anything. Patience is trust stretched over time.
Five · Pray this
Father, I want it now. Teach me to rest in You and wait patiently. Let me be patient in tribulation and steady in prayer. In Jesus' name, amen.
Six · Now in your own words
Ask God for patience for this specific week, not in general.
Seven · Private journal
What I am rushing, and what might be growing in the delay.
Eight · One practical step
Slow one thing down today on purpose.
Before you go
The season will come. Rest in Him until it does.
