Create in me a clean heart, O God. Renew a loyal spirit within me. Do not banish me from your presence and don’t take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore me the joy of your salvation and make me willing to obey you. Psalm 51:10-12(NLT)
PRAYER FOR RESTORATION
A poem and essay by ILMA
Lord, I feel tired and overwhelmed by adversities
The enemy has kept me busy with much activities
My peace was compromised and I am feeling helpless
Reveal to me why I feel so much emptiness.
Create in me a clean heart and renew my loyalty
Do not take away your Holy Spirit from me
Restore me the joy of your salvation and help me obey
I plead you to give me heal and strengthen me each day.

There are days I wake up in a very sad mood. It usually happens when I get very busy with many activities and when I don’t have time to reflect at the end of the day. I usually journal and have a conversation with God each morning when I wake up but sometimes don’t have time to pray before bedtime because I am still finishing a project or chore.
The bible summons us to pray for restoration and cleansing of our hearts. It is important to remember that we must never grieve the Holy Spirit so we can hear what he is teaching or convicting us with.
PRAYER
Lord, I need you especially when I am weak and overwhelmed.
REFLECTION
Why is it important for us to have quiet moments with God daily?

The Lord says, “I will give you back what you lost.” -Joel 2:25(NLT)
PRAYER FOR RESTORATION
A poem and essay by ILMA
Lord, I am worn out from life’s challenges
Will you give me strength to face changes?
Some days are more difficult than other days
Will you give me hope to sustain each and everyday?
You said in your word that you’ll give back what I lost
Give me a new perspective as I look and focus on the cross
Heal me and restore my mind, body, soul and spirit
Help me to have victory and never again be beat.

When someone experiences pain or loss, it is challenging to go on with life with the same joy and peace one use to have. I lost so many things in my life. I lost my childhood, my beloved grandfather who was the only one who understood me and gave me a love for nature. I lost my purity, my identity during a divorce, my freedom to speak my own thoughts and feelings and my careers and ability to earn a decent living. These are many loses that I never even realized had made much impact in my life. It changed the way I saw the world and it dragged me to the pit of anger, unhappiness, rebellion and bondage to sin. I thank God that he has pulled me out of that abyss. He restored me and made me new.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for bringing light into my dark pit.
REFLECTION
What can you do to get back the loses you have had over these years?

Restore me to the joy of your salvation, and make me willing to obey you. Then I will teach your ways to rebels and they will return to you. – Psalm 51:12-13 (NLT)
PRAYER FOR RESTORATION
A poem and essay by ILMA
Lord, forgive me for all of my transgressions
Give me a repentant heart so I can have salvation
Restore me and free me from all my iniquities
Help me to focus on you amidst trials and adversities.
Renew my mind and heart so I can be free
Help me to seek your word so I can see
Bless me as I humbly repent and confess
Bring me back to you and never digress.

When a calamity has just destroyed a house, it takes a lot of time to actually deal with the damages. We clean it up first and take an inventory as to how much loss the disaster brought about. Then we sit down and calculate how we are going about repairing against what our budgets can afford. After the declaration of the state of the catastrophe, sometimes it takes a while before we can go through the motions of the restoration. We go through a state of shock and some people stay long in the point and they become immobilized by the trauma. Going through a calamity is just like being beaten up by the enemy. In Psalm 51, David prays for restoration after many years of unconfessed sins.
PRAYER
Lord, give me a contrite heart.
REFLECTION
What is the importance of confessing a sin?
