Prayers for Peace
Excerpts
Turning to Heavenly Father in fervent prayer when the world seems chaotic is as old as mankind. In times of fear, tragedy, danger, trouble, or illness, people often turn to God in prayer. His Beloved Son, Jesus Christ, in whose name we pray, lives, knows us, watches over us, and cares for us. …
In moments of pain, loneliness, or confusion, we know that our Heavenly Father and His Beloved Son are aware of our circumstances and that They yearn to bless us. …
Opening the windows of heaven through fervent prayer does not require the use of many words or flowery language. Rather, the diligence in prayer which Heavenly Father requires of us is to “pour out [our] souls” in private places and have our hearts “drawn out in prayer unto him continually.” …
The Lord has also provided us touching evidence of the power of nonverbal prayers offered within our hearts. …
As we pray continually, no matter the circumstances of life, the Lord will offer us His peace and abiding support. …
… Consistent prayer during joyous times and also during seasons of distress and grief will surely be rewarded according to His will and perfect timing.
I know that God the Father lives. He loves us. He hears our prayers, and many times He will answer with feelings of peace. …
Brothers and sisters, I bear my testimony that the Savior’s promise is true and that a humble prayer for peace in your heart will be honored.
