Please release me from these worries. Remind me of Your love. Please cover me with Your peace and calm. Allow my body and mind to find rest with You. God, thank You for always listening and hearing prayers. I pray for inner peace and calm for every person. In the name of Your Son, Amen.”
33. “Dear God, my friend is afraid and filled with anxiety. My friend needs Your help. I don’t know all the reasons for their anxiety. You know what is happening in their life. I don’t need to know the details. I do know they are afraid of anxious feelings and are not sure how to deal with those feelings. I lift up my friend to You and ask You to cover them with a spirit of peace and calm. Remind them that You have a plan for their life (Jeremiah 29:11). Thank You for loving my friend.

36. “Heavenly Father, today I have been reflecting on the words in Isaiah 35:4. “Be strong, fear not: behold, your God will come with a vengeance, even God with a recompense; He will come and save you.” My dear Lord. I love these words — but I struggle to live by them in difficult times. Where I should feel faith, I feel fear. Where I should see possibilities, I see new threats. Where I should have self-control, Satan’s lies tempt me. And when my heart should be open, it’s afraid. I hold fear for this world, my loved ones, and myself. God, please help me find faith. Grant me the strength to face my fears with courage. Let me cast aside my fears and anxious heart. In the name of Jesus, Amen.”
37. “Lord, when fearful thoughts swirl through my head, I know they don’t come from You, nor do I have to give their voice weight. You have given me a sound mind, the mind of Christ (1 Corinthians 2:16), and the power and the strength to focus on truth. Because of Your Spirit within me, I am not a victim to irrational thinking or what-if scenarios. Instead, I will choose to meditate on every promise You’ve given me in Scripture. Your love, Lord, holds me firm and reigns over all I am.”
38. “Laughter has such healing, stress relieving power. As an adored child of the victorious, joy-giving King, I always have a reason to laugh. Lord, fill my heart with humor, especially in the face of adversity. Sprinkle moments of fun throughout my day, and help me to grab hold of each one.”
39. “Thank You, Father, that I am well-armed for any battle I might face. In Christ, Your precious Son, You have given me every weapon necessary and available, each one held secure by my belt of truth. Your truth is my sword, able to slice through all accusation waged against me and all falsehoods that attempt to distract or confuse.”
40. “By Your truth, I can fight back the forces of evil and bolster my heart for every challenge ahead. When I’m frightened, draw me to Scripture more than the news or social media and sink every verse deep into my heart so that Your words become a part of me.”
41. “No matter what happens in our economy, with my employment situation, or my bank account, I know You and You alone are my provider. You can meet my needs and those of my family’s in miraculous and unexpected ways. In fact, You excel at this. Frightening and uncertain circumstances are merely the backdrop for Your most glorious acts.”
42. “I need You desperately, Lord, always, but when I’m frightened especially. So, remind me of Your presence. I know You are always with me. Scripture promises, the instant I take the slightest step toward You, You are already bridging the gap between us. You are a good, loving, and faithful Father who will never leave me.”
43. “In gratitude, I will choose to pause, to reflect on every memory, verse, and glorious song You bring to mind. I’ll meditate on the sunrise that lights up each day and twinkling star that shines through my night. But mostly, I’ll think deeply on You, for You, my Lord, are lovely and admirable, pure, and true, and You are, and will always be, mine.”
44. “When I recount my blessings, however, You and Your miraculous acts sharpen back into focus. With every word of thanksgiving, I remind myself of Your heart and Your care. Through praise, I acknowledge that good that remains, even when life feels hard. So, Lord, flood and strengthen my heart with thanksgiving and fill my mouth with praise.”
45. “Unfortunately, there are days when I give more authority to the noise all around me than the steady and faithful voice of my God within. I need Your help. Close my ears, Lord, to everything contradictory to You. May Your voice ring the loudest, for I know You always speak truth. Your words always lead to peace and increased freedom.”
46. “God, I pray against my fear, now, not just what I’m afraid of, but my very fear itself. Counter my anxiety. Beat it back and overwhelm it with Your love. Fill me so completely with You, no trace of fear may remain. I recognize some of the greatest battles take persistence, and You Yourself told me to pray without giving up.”
47. “Dear Lord, the stresses at work have reached a dangerous proportion—or so it seems. My body, spirit, and mind are struggling to keep up. Some days, anxiety follows me like a hungry predator, and the temptation to worry gets very strong. Though I know better, sometimes the challenges outweigh Your truth that is buried deep inside me. My trust in You fades into the wind, leaving fears of this world free to discourage me and shake my faith. “
48. “In these moments of worry, help me remember You are my rock, and in You, there is no fear or anxiety. Lord, remind me You are the source of love and the giver of a sound mind.

50. “Teach me, oh Lord, to identify the stressful trials as tools that You use to shape me and strengthen me. Through these troublesome times, teach me patience and grow my faith. Forgive me for attempting to handle things single-handedly. Sometimes, the need to be in control overtakes me and makes me forget You control everything. “
51. “Lord, I pray for You to turn these potentials for stress and anxiety into instruments for growth and trust. Even when I can’t see any possible solutions, Lord, I choose to believe that everything will work for my good. You have helped me before; therefore, I choose to focus only on You. I believe You will restore my peace and give me joy that surpasses all understanding.”
52. “Dear Lord, thank You for the work that You have given me! I am grateful for this great gift from You. Yet Lord, You are aware of the stress I am undergoing in my work. Sometimes I think about giving it all up because of the heavy pressure and responsibility on my shoulders. I seem to have lost the strength and will to handle my work and all my responsibilities, Lord. “
53. “Your word tells me You love to see me prosper as I am Your child. So, please strengthen me so I can excel in my career. Lord, grant me Your grace, which is enough to carry me through even the most difficult times and tasks in my work. Let me find favor with my employers! “
54. “Dear Lord, I plead for Your divine wisdom and intervention. I need strength to pull through all the problems that crop up in my workplace.

55. “Heavenly Father, I come to You asking for peace of mind. I am stressed at my workplace. I am constantly worried about deadlines and failing to properly handle the tasks that I have to complete each day. I have a lot I need to do: today, tomorrow, and for the weeks and months to come. “
56. “Ease my mind, oh heavenly Father. Please help me not to focus on the obstacles in my path. Help me not worry or be afraid of everything that lies ahead. Remind me, Lord, that I can rest assured in the knowledge that You are in control of everything, including my future.”
57. “Today I feel so defeated and anxious, oh Merciful Father. Strengthen me, Lord, and never let my challenges get the better of me. Please help me rest well and to better allocate my time. But most of all, Lord, remind me to set apart enough time to give You all the glory and praise You deserve – Amen. “
58. “Dear heavenly Father, stress from work has gotten to me, and I feel worn out and tired. Every day, I find myself unhappy and impatient with myself and those around me. Please rekindle my faith in You and remind me You are the God of peace and that You are in control of my life.”
59. “Please help me remain focused on You when I am faced with work stress. Let me be the light in my work instead of the stressed and unpleasant person I currently am. I know the joy of the Lord is my strength, but the dust of daily life sometimes clouds my thoughts and judgment. Thank You, Lord, for giving me peace. In Christ’s name – Amen. ”
60. “Lord, please restore Your peace in my heart. I am stressed and anxious, and I obsess over my problems. I can’t seem to stop thinking of every troubling thing I am facing at work. And the more I think of all my problems, the more I am becoming depressed.”
61. “Every day, I can’t stop feeling like I am sinking in quicksand, and I am stuck. Calm me, O Lord, and slow me down. I am praying that You put Your everlasting peace in my life regardless of all the problems I face. “
62. “Help me understand that no matter what issues I might be having, You are bigger than all of them. Remind me You are more powerful than all my problems. Today I bring all my problems to You, Lord. All I know is what I want, and that is for my problems to go away. However, I know. You see what I don’t. Therefore, I surrender to Your will. “
63. “Lord, I do not yet understand how You will use all my current problems for my salvation, and I don’t yet comprehend what good will come from my work situation. However, I rest assured You are in control and that everything will work for my good. I trust You, heavenly Father, so I put my life in Your hands. Please fill my heart and mind with peace – Amen.”
64. “Almighty God, I thank You for my life. I give You praise for everything that You have done for me. Lord, I am grateful for the work You have given me and for Your mercy and grace that I receive daily. I thank You because You are faithful, and You have never let me down. Even if I am not faithful to You, You have always been there for me when I needed You the most. ”
65. “Dear Lord, I am asking You to bring peace into my life. I am getting more and more stressed by work, and I can not handle it on my own anymore. Please remove everything that is causing me to be stressed and anxious. Please guide my path and make my foes be at peace with me. Heavenly Father, reign in my workplace and in everything that I lay my hands on.”
66. “Lord, let Your angels of peace go before me when I go out to work, and may they stay with me as I work and guide me back home when I finish. I thank You for always being there for me – Amen.”
67. “Heavenly Father, I am worried and concerned about my place of work. There is a lot of stress in my life and the lives of my workmates. I want to hand it all over to You, Lord because I know that there is no situation bigger than You. I also know, Lord, that You will never let Your children be plagued by worry and stress. “
68. “Heavenly Father, I thank You for this job, for through it, I can provide for my family and those under my care. But the increasing tension at my workplaces is causing me a lot of uncertainty and never-ending stress. “
69. “Lord Jesus, the stresses in my life often reach a dangerous proportion—or so it seems. My body, mind, and spirit struggle to keep up physically, mentally, and yes, spiritually. Some days anxiety stalks me like a deceitful predator, and the temptation to worry draws me in. I know better, but some days the challenges outweigh the truths buried inside. My trust in You fades into the background, giving fear and concerns permission to discourage me.”
70. “In those moments of apprehension, help me remember that I belong to You, and that You are not the author of fear or anxiety, but the giver of love and a sound mind. Teach me Your ways to respond to problems by giving thanks in them. Your Word assures me that You are always there with me. You are the Blessed Controller of all things, and nothing escapes Your attention in my life. You have given me every tool and spiritual blessing to fight against those things that try to steal my peace. You’ve promised that when I’m stressed and burdens are trying to weigh me down, I can come to You. You will give me sweet rest!”
71. “Whether the anxiety stems from work, parenting, finances, physical issues, or even world conditions, You are there, Lord, to shoulder the weight. Teach me to recognize the stressful trials as tools for you to shape me and rearrange me. Through those difficult times, You will teach me patience, enlarge my faith, and help me see things I couldn’t see earlier—if I will only let You. When I’m clueless as to what to do, Lord, I want to turn to you first, not last.”
72. “Dear Lord, I thank you that I can come to You always for any reason. I’m grateful that when I pray to You, You answer me. Help me to come to You at the beginning of my fears and anxieties instead of waiting until I can’t stand them anymore. The quicker I come to You the better. You want to free me from ALL my fears. Help me look to You for help more often so that I can be radiant with Your joy. In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.”

74. “Lord, I confess that I have let stress take a hold of my life, rather than You. I have let stress control my mood, my attitudes and my actions. Lord, I repent of this! Please Father, help me see what is stressful in my life and hand it over to You. Help me not let the stress win out. Help me actively think on Your goodness to me.”
75. “I am so hopeful for my eternity with you, Lord, where there will be NO more stress! Help me look back on all the ways You have rescued me from my stressful moments, and look in hope to the future where You will one day rid all stress, forever.”
