“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.” (Romans 15:13)
I think this is a prayer I can copy and use every day. Before I ask for the needs of the day; for healing, for help and protection etc. just possibly a prayer for hope, joy and peace, because of my trust in Jesus, should come first? The wonderful prayer for an outcome is also one to be used as a model; that trust in Jesus will bring the Holy Spirit to touch individuals lives with hope (the certainty of eternity with Jesus). That can bring profound change to a day no matter how full or complex.
