Prayer When You are Disappointed

Are you struggling to pray and spend time with God before you begin the day because of yesterday’s disappointments? How do you break through in prayer at the start of the day when you don’t feel like talking to God because you are so disappointed?

Don’t worry! Know that many believers all over the world are also going through a similar experience. Disappointments in life are the result of our own expectations. You get disappointed because what you expect to happen didn’t occur. Sometimes, disappointment can teach us about our own will and personal desires, which are different from God’s will and God’s plans. Our expectations sometimes don’t come to pass, as God has a better plan or the time is simply not yet right.

 

Instead of being disappointed and remaining stuck there, simply trust in God and surrender all your plans unto Him. Pray to God at the start of the day by being grateful that He has better plans in mind and that you will continue to rely on and trust in His will. Pray that you will see what He sees about your life. Surrender all your plans and desires to the LORD and allow His plan to unfold instead, which will be far better than your plans. For you to break through the battle of disappointment, simply let go and allow God’s plans to develop instead. You can safely trust His loving heart towards you, even when you don’t fully understand how certain situations will pan out.

 

The moment you wake up, praise and thank God for His wonderful and wise plans for you. Declare Jeremiah 29:11 in prayer and trust in the promises of God for your life. That way, you’ll be able to start the day right with God by renewing the way you think through His Word. You can do all things through Christ Jesus!
