Joshua 1:9 — Early-Morning Prayer for Strength, Courage, and Resilience

3 A.M. Release — Recorded live here in London, England — from London to Jakarta, from Jakarta to Cape Town, from Cape Town to Chicago — as the night lingers, faith rises to face what lies ahead.

Scripture (NIV)

“Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” — Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

Show Notes

The darkest hours often test the heart most deeply. Many search “prayer for strength to keep going” when life feels heavy, but Joshua 1:9 is more than comfort — it’s a command. Strength is not found in self-belief, but in divine presence.

From London to Jakarta, Cape Town to Chicago, believers rise through hardship, trusting the same God who strengthened Joshua to lead through uncertainty. Fear may visit, but it cannot stay where courage abides. God’s promise still holds: I am with you wherever you go.

This early morning, we pray for resilience in trial, courage in calling, and strength to stand firm when everything shakes. The presence of God turns ordinary endurance into extraordinary victory.

We believe in the promises of God. And wherever we are, Father, dear God, right now, dear Lord, from the battlefield to the boardroom, from the boardroom to the bus stop, from the bus stop to the train, from the train to the aircraft, from the aircraft to the scaffold, from the scaffold to the retail, from the retail to the gym, wherever we are, school, university, cutting the grass, hoovering, washing up, ironing, doing whatever we are doing, dear God.
