By Bishop Jerry Peña, God’s anointed servant
I kneel before you on this day like Hezekiah who turn his my face to the wall, with no strength left but to weep. This burden is too heavy for me to carry, this battle too great for me to fight. “The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; He delivers them from all their troubles” (Psalm 34:17).
Lord, I remember that “unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain” (Psalm 127:1). My human efforts have reached their end. My wisdom has failed. My plans have crumbled. I stand before You broken and empty-handed.
Father, remember me. I come to you in the name of my Lord, Jesus. I acknowledge my weakness and failure in obeying you. Forgive me for my shortcomings. Remember my tears I have sown in secret. “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in Your bottle. You have recorded each one in Your book” (Psalm 56:8).
I surrender this impossible situation into Your mighty hands because “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible” (Matthew 19:26). What is terminal to man is temporary to You. What seems like an ending to me may be a turning point in Your divine purpose.
Lord, turn back the shadow on my sundial. Reverse what seems irreversible. Heal what physicians cannot handle—the weary soul. Restore what has seems to be impossible. For You are “the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not” (Romans 4:17).
Yet even as I pray for strength, I submit to Your perfect will. Like Jesus in Gethsemane, I cry “Not my will, but Yours be done” (Luke 22:42). Whether You choose to do miracle or not, I trust Your sovereign goodness.
Lord, hear my bitter weeping. See my tears as Hezekiah’s were seen. Not because I deserve Your mercy, but because “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18).
I rest in this truth: “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11).
“Into Your hands I commit this situation, in the name of Jesus, my Lord. To you be the glory always forever, Amen!
May this prayer serve as a guideline for those of you who are in the impossible moments, trusting the God who heard the prayer and saw the tears of Hezekiah and added fifteen more years to his life.
If your prayers have seemed unanswered, don’t quit — adjust your approach. God is not deaf, nor is His arm short to save. Return to His divine pattern.✅ Come as a child, not as a beggar.
✅ Approach through the blood of Jesus.
✅ Align with His Word, not your emotions.
✅ Believe before you see.
✅ Forgive freely and walk in love.
When prayer aligns with God’s protocol, Heaven must respond.
“Before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.”
You’re tired. Bone-deep, soul-weary, can’t-preach-another-sermon tired.
You’ve given everything you have—your time, your energy, your family’s privacy, your emotional reserves—and you’re running on empty. The church isn’t growing the way
When we examine the biblical evidence collectively, a clear theology of prayer emerges. Prayer is not an add-on feature for religious people. It is the operating system of the Kingdom
Your spouse is not the enemy (Eph 6:12). God may use this season to form Christ in you while He draws them. Keep honor high, set loving boundaries, fight the
In a world filled with confusion, uncertainty, and spiritual hunger, God has not left us without direction. He has given us His Word—living, powerful, and transformative.
So today, I stand in the authority of Jesus Christ to war against every form of witchcraft and dark spiritual attack assigned against my life.
There are times when the righteous are forced to endure hardship, not because of their own choices, but because of the sins and unbelief of others.
