Prayers for Courageous Faith
Scripture Foundation
Hebrews 11:6 says, "And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him." Matthew 14:27 reminds us, "Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him, going to the other side, while he sent the crowds away." In 2 Corinthians 5:7, we're encouraged to "walk in the light as he is in the light." And Isaiah 12:2 declares, "Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation." These scriptures serve as a foundation for our prayers, reminding us of God's character and our need for faith.
