Short Prayer For Strength And Courage In Difficult Times

My Father, God of Heaven’s Armies, You are near to me. You are by me, giving me my every breath, even in the valley overshadowed by the terrifying specter of death. In this time of war and darkness, I need Your strength. Father, please empower me by Your Spirit. Give me the fortitude to endure the enemy’s slings. I beg in the name of Your Son, who did not waver in His resolution when faced with the cross. Amen.
