Morning Devotional & Prayer from Inspire Literary Group
Start Your Day Anchored in God’s Word and Surrounded by His Promises
Good morning, dear friends. Welcome to the Inspire Literary Group Devotional Series—where creativity meets calling, and every day begins with God’s unfailing promises.
Have you ever found yourself in a place of desperation—where you reached the end of your own strength and could only whisper, “Lord, I need help”?
Maybe you’ve walked through a season where the walls closed in:
You didn’t know how you would pay rent.
You didn’t know how to comfort a grieving heart.
You didn’t know how to fix what was broken inside.
The truth is—we’ve all been there. Even the strongest among us have moments of weakness.
The most independent hearts will one day cry out for support.
And the most faithful will still wrestle with fear, uncertainty, and exhaustion.
But here’s the good news: our help does not come from within ourselves.
Our help comes from the Lord—Creator of heaven and earth.
King David wrote in Psalm 121:
“I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”
That same God who breathed the stars into being, who parted seas and raised the dead—He is your Helper. Your Defender. Your ever-present help in times of trouble.
People may fail.
Friends may forget.
Even the kindest soul may one day fall short…
But God never will.
He does not grow weary.
He does not withhold His love.
He does not offer help with strings attached.
As Zephaniah 3:17 declares:
“The Lord your God is in your midst, a Mighty One who will save. He will rejoice over you with gladness; He will quiet you by His love; He will exult over you with loud singing.”
He rejoices over you. He protects you. He preserves you.
Three times in Psalm 121, the word “preserve” is used—
“The Lord shall preserve you from all evil; He shall preserve your soul; He shall preserve your going out and your coming in…”
Whether you're walking into uncertainty or coming home from battle,
Whether you're facing a courtroom, a hospital room, or a quiet room of heartbreak—He goes with you.
So today, lift your eyes to Him. Trust Him.
And now, let’s pray together.

A Heartfelt Prayer for God’s Protection, Guidance, and Daily Help
Heavenly Father,
We come before You this morning with grateful hearts. You are our Keeper. Our Refuge. Our Helper. You are the God who sees what we cannot see, and You shield us from what we do not even know.
When we were lost, You found us.
When we were afraid, You held us.
When we were sinking, You lifted us up.
Lord, we ask You today—be our help.
Preserve our going out and our coming in.
Preserve our minds from fear.
Preserve our hearts from bitterness.
Preserve our bodies from harm.
Preserve our souls from doubt.
When life feels overwhelming, help us remember: You are near. You are strong. You are good. And You are enough.
Lord, we ask for your divine protection over our families, our children, our homes, and our work.
Surround us with Your presence.
Let no weapon formed against us prosper.
Let no lie from the enemy take root.
We pray today for supernatural peace—for the one who is anxious.
Provision—for the one who is in lack.
Healing—for the one who is sick.
Wisdom—for the one facing big decisions.
And comfort—for the one who feels alone.
Jesus, we know that You are our Shepherd. And if You are with us, we shall not want.
Walk with us today, Lord. Lead us beside still waters. Restore our souls.
Cover us in the shadow of Your wings, and let Your voice be louder than every storm around us.
We declare Your word over our lives today:
“My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth.”
Thank You for being our strength when we are weak.
Thank You for being faithful even when we are unsure.
And thank You for loving us with a love that never lets go.
We praise You.
We trust You.
We rest in You.
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ we pray,
Amen.
