August 2 Devotion - When we feel down emotionally

 

When we feel down emotionally, we need to ask our Heavenly Father in prayer to cover us with His divine grace, wisdom, and strength.

We need to handle the situation according to His will in our lives.

We need to remember God’s promises, and we need to ask The Father to show us His purpose and teachings from what we are facing.

 

 

I invite you to repeat the following prayer for yourself:

Abba Father, thank You that when I feel down emotionally, I always have the choice to convert my feelings to joy by concentrating on Your promises, for You have said:

 

Do not be grieved, for the joy of the LORD is your strength Nehemiah 8:10

وَلا تَحْزَنُوا لأَنَّ هَذَا الْيَوْمَ مُقَدَّسٌ لِسَيِّدِنَا، فَفَرَحُ الرَّبِّ هُوَ قُوَّتُكُمْ.

 

The righteous cry and the LORD hears and delivers them out of all their troubles, weeping may last for the night, but a shout of joy comes in the morning. Psalms 34:17, Psalms 30:5

يَسْتَغِيثُ الأَبْرَارُ، فَيَسْمَعُ لَهُمُ الرَّبُّ وَيُنْقِذُهُمْ مِنْ جَمِيعِ ضِيقَاتِهِمْ.

يَبْقَى الْبُكَاءُ لِلَيْلَةٍ، أَمَّا فِي الصَّبَاحِ فَيَعُمُّ الابْتِهَاجُ.

 

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you. Isaiah 43:2

إِذَا اجْتَزْتَ فِي وَسَطِ الْمِيَاهِ أَكُونُ مَعَكَ، وَإِنْ خُضْتَ الأَنْهَارَ لَا تَغْمُرُكَ. إِنْ عَبَرْتَ فِي النَّارِ لَا تَلْذَعُكَ. وَاللهِيبُ لَا يُحْرِقُكَ

 

Yet those who wait for the LORD will gain new strength; they will mount up with wings like eagles, they will run and not get tired, they will walk and not become weary. Isaiah 40:31

أَمَّا الرَّاجُونَ الرَّبَّ فَإِنَّهُمْ يُجَدِّدُونَ قُوَّتَهُمْ، وَيُحَلِّقُونَ بِأَجْنِحَةِ النُّسُورِ. يَرْكُضُونَ وَلا يُعْيُونَ. يَمْشُونَ وَلا يَتْعَبُونَ.

 

Do not fear, for I am with you; do not anxiously look about you, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, surely I will help you, surely I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10

لَا تَخَفْ لأَنِّي مَعَكَ. لَا تَتَلَفَّتْ حَوْلَكَ جَزَعاً، لأَنِّي إِلَهُكَ، أُشَدِّدُكَ وَأُعِينُكَ وَأَعْضُدُكَ بِيَمِينِ بِرِّي

 

Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you at the proper time, casting all your anxiety on Him, because He cares for you. 1 Peter 5:6-7

إِذَنْ، تَوَاضَعُوا تَحْتَ يَدِ اللهِ القَدِيرَةِ لِكَيْ يَرْفَعَكُمْ عِنْدَمَا يَحِينُ الْوَقْتُ، 7 وَاطْرَحُوا عَلَيْهِ ثِقْلَ هُمُومِكُمْ كُلِّهَا، لأَنَّهُ هُوَ يَعْتَنِي بِكُمْ.

 

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction so that we will be able to comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. 2 Corinthians 1:3-4

تَبَارَكَ اللهُ، أَبُو رَبِّنَا يَسُوعَ الْمَسِيحِ، أَبُو الْمَرَاحِمِ وَإِلَهُ كُلِّ تَعْزِيَةٍ، 4 هُوَ الَّذِي يُشَجِّعُنَا فِي كُلِّ ضِيقَةٍ نَمُرُّ بِها، حَتَّى نَسْتَطِيعَ أَنْ نُشَجِّعَ الَّذِينَ يَمُرُّونَ بِأَيَّةِ ضِيقَةٍ، بِالتَّشْجِيعِ الَّذِي بِهِ يُشَجِّعُنَا اللهُ.

 

Thank You Abba Father for Your abundant blessings and Your deep, inseparable and everlasting love. I pray to You Father in Jesus’ mighty name.

 

Now to Him who is able to carry out His purpose and do infinitely beyond our greatest prayers, hopes, or dreams, according to His power that is at work within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Ephesians 3:20-21. Amen. 

وَالْقَادِرُ أَنْ يَفْعَلَ، وَفْقاً لِلْقُدْرَةِ الْعَامِلَةِ فِينَا، مَا يَفُوقُ بِلا حَصْرٍ كُلَّ مَا نَطْلُبُ أَوْ نَتَصَوَّرُ، 21 لَهُ الْمَجْدُ فِي الْكَنِيسَةِ، فِي الْمَسِيحِ يَسُوعَ، مَدَى الأَجْيَالِ وَالدُّهُورِ! آمِينَ.

Jesus loves you,

In Him,
