EVENING PRYAYER

EVENING PRAYER  

✠ In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Heavenly Father, as this day comes to its close and evening settles in, I come before You with a grateful and reflective heart, remembering Your Word that “Let my prayer be set before You like incense, the lifting up of my hands like the evening sacrifice” (Psalm 141:2). I lift my heart to You now, offering You the moments of this day—both the seen and unseen trusting that You have been present through it all.

Lord, I acknowledge that You have carried me through every step of this day, for “The Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one” (2 Thessalonians 3:3). In moments of strength and in moments of weakness, You were with me. I thank You for sustaining me, protecting me, and guiding me even when I did not fully recognize it.

Father, I place before You everything this day has held the words I spoke, the thoughts I carried, the actions I took. Your Word reminds me that “The Lord searches every heart and understands every desire and every thought” (1 Chronicles 28:9). I surrender all to You now, trusting in Your mercy and Your grace.

Lord, if there is anything within me that is not pleasing to You, I ask for Your cleansing and renewal, for “Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me” (Psalm 51:10). Wash away every fault, every impatience, and every burden, and fill me again with Your peace.

Father, at this moment I place before You my personal evening intentions, trusting that You hear me and care for every need within my heart.

[PAUSE HERE AND PRESENT YOUR EVENING INTENTIONS]

I rest in Your promise that “The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on Him in truth” (Psalm 145:18).

Lord, I lift up my family, my loved ones, and all who are connected to me. Cover them with Your peace and protection through this night, for “The Lord will keep you from all harm He will watch over your life” (Psalm 121:7). Let Your presence rest upon every home and bring calm and assurance.

Father, as night deepens, I receive Your peace, for “You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are stayed on You, because they trust in You” (Isaiah 26:3). Quiet my thoughts, remove every anxiety, and let my heart rest securely in Your love.

Lord, I end this day in trust and surrender, knowing that “The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble; He cares for those who trust in Him” (Nahum 1:7). I place my life into Your hands as I prepare to rest.

I lie down in peace, confident that “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for You alone, O Lord, make me dwell in safety” (Psalm 4:8).

In the mighty Name of Jesus Christ,
Amen. ✠
