Pray with confidence in God who controls everything for our good and His glory.
We know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God (Romans 8:28).
All glory to God our Father forever and ever! Amen (Philippians 4:20).
“I can’t remember a trial or a pain
He did not recycle to bring me gain.”*
Jesus’ death is our perfect example of God always working for the good of those who love him (see Philippians 2:8-11; Romans 8:28).
Remember this as you pray your way through.

We pray. God does what we think He will. We pray about something else. God does not do what we think He will.
We choose to believe that in all things God works for the good of those who love him (Romans 8:28).
Our faith grows because faith is . . . being certain of what we do not see (Hebrews 11:1).
“God isn’t scrambling to come up with some kind of scheme to meet our latest crisis. . . . His plans have long since been laid. They are secure. And they have you in mind.”*
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28).
Remember these truths as you pray.

I sat beside my grandson’s incubator and looked across the NICU at so many babies, some sick, some born too soon to survive alone.
Because I believe, I prayed. “This is hard. But You promise to make it good. These children need You for life now and for eternity. Your steadfast love is our hope.”
For those who love God all things work together for good (Romans 8:28).
The eye of the Lord is one those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love (Psalm 33:18).
No matter what, we pray knowing that for those who love God all things work together for good (Romans 8:28).
You meant it for evil against me, but God meant it for good (Genesis 50:20).
Women who faithfully pray see God guide and give and govern their lives.
They see “that for those who love God all things work together for good” (Romans 8:28).
This grandma trusts God’s Word and appeals to God’s heart as she prays:
~Use this loss for their good. We know that for those who love God all things work together for good (Romans 8:28).
~They fear you. Because the midwives feared God, you gave them families of their own (Exodus 1:21).
~Please give them a child so they can teach him about you. You seek godly offspring (Malachi 2:15).
