Joshua 1:9 — Jesus, Give Me Courage as the Day Begins to Close Live from London, England — Argentina • Brazil • Mozambique • Paraguay • Cape Verde oração da tarde • coragem em Cristo • renovar a força • esperança para continuar • encorajamento diário Joshua 1:9 (NIV): “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” Hebrews 10:35 (NIV): “So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded.” As evening draws near, Jesus, I pause to breathe and realign my heart with Your strength. The day may have carried moments of pressure, uncertainty, or emotional weariness, but now I place every part of it into Your hands. Your words to Joshua remind me that courage rises not from my own ability but from knowing that You are with me in every hour, every place, and every step. Where discouragement has tried to surface, let Your presence steady my emotions and renew my resolve. Calm the restlessness that sometimes appears as the day closes, and help me trust that You are working even when I cannot see the whole picture. Holy Spirit, breathe confidence into my heart. Bring clarity to the thoughts that feel unsettled and lift away the heaviness that may have gathered throughout the day. Strengthen the places within me that feel fragile or stretched. Guide my emotions toward peace so that I end this day with trust instead of tension. Let Your encouragement fill the spaces where doubt has whispered. Replace uncertainty with steady assurance. Let confidence rise gently, shaping the rest of this evening with Your calm and Your strength. Lord, help me carry Your words into the night ahead. Where decisions still linger, give wisdom. Where emotions feel worn, bring renewal. Where I fear falling short, remind me that You walk beside me with patience and kindness. Let courage grow quietly within me. Help me release today’s pressures and welcome Your peace. May the closing of this day be filled with the assurance that You remain near, guiding, supporting, and strengthening me for all that tomorrow may hold. evening prayer courage, Joshua 1:9 devotional, oração de coragem à tarde, Hebrews 10:35 confidence, strength for the evening, Portuguese Christian encouragement, end-of-day renewal prayer, Christ-centered uplift, esperança e força em Cristo, daily devotional comfort evening courage, Joshua 1:9, Portuguese devotional, 6pm prayer, confidence in Christ, emotional renewal, Jesus encouragement, daily strength

Courage From Joshua 1:9

SPEAKER_00

No news, no travel, no weather, just pure worship in the name of Jesus. And for everybody that is in the back library and in the archives of these podcasts, the love of God is over your life wherever you are situated, wherever your life is looking, whatever rhythm you are walking at this moment in time, we are going to pray out of the book of Joshua, chapter 1, verse 9. Jesus, give me courage as the day begins to close. Maybe the sun is descending over your life. Maybe you're in a different part of the world and the sun is rising wherever you are, however, in whatever time zone you capture my voice and these prayers, whatever it is, however it looks, there's one thing that's sure Jesus Christ loves every one of us. And he's telling us to be strong and courageous. Come on, let's pray. Father, I thank you for the beautiful book. I thank you from Genesis to Revelation. I thank you that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. But at this hour, Lord, as the sun rises, as the sun sets on our day, wherever we are, whatever this time zone is, however our life looks, Father, we just want to say thank you. Thank you, Holy Spirit, that you chose us. Thank you, Lord, that you are telling us to be strong and courageous. You're telling us not to be afraid. You're telling us not to be discouraged. For the Lord thy God goes with you wherever you go. Lord Jesus, that is a beautiful scripture.

Praying Through Daily Noise And Stress

SPEAKER_00

Lord, we've had a day and a half. Lord, we've had a stretch today. Our minds, dear God, are gone. Lord, it feels like, Lord God, we've got so much noise of the world. Father, on the commute home, Lord, it's noisy. Father, on the commute in, dear God, it's noisy. Lord, life just seems so noisy. Lord, we're looking for peace. And Lord, I ask, dear God, that we will rise just like Joshua and Caleb. Lord, that they lifted themselves. They walked into the battlefields of life. So, Father, wherever battles that we have, whatever skirmishes are going on, Lord, that we will, dear God, just lift our hands and we will say, Jesus, thank you that the battle belongs to the Lord. Thank you, dear God, that you have every situation in the palm of your hand. And right now, Lord, I pray that you will give us confidence, that the richness, that the love and the mercy of your favor, Lord, that you will help us, as the book of Joshua says in Joshua chapter 1, verse 9, be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid, do not be discouraged, for the Lord thy God goes with you wherever you

courage. I believe God is speaking to you. I believe God is speaking to me right now, wherever we are situated, from the battlefield to the boardroom, from the boardroom to the Passover table, from the Passover table to the situations that we face. God, give us confidence. Lord, help us to rise out of the ashes of trouble. Help us to walk in clarity. Help us to walk, dear God, in understanding. Lord, we don't want to go by emotions. We don't want to go by fear. Lord, we want to walk in courage. Shape the rest of our evening. Shape the rest of our day. Shape the rest of our lives. Lord, Father, we ask that wisdom will prevail. Lord, we pray for those that just feel worn and tired and exhausted. Just by the rhythm of life. Holy Spirit, carry those that have got issues in their families. Carry those, dear God, that have got issues in relationships. Carry those that have got trouble with children, trouble at home, trouble at work, ministry, church, all the rah-ra-ra of life. Spirit of the living God, I pray that we won't hear the pots and pans, dear God, of the kitchen of life that are rattling in our head. Father, help us, give us courage.
