The One Who Does These Things



I am the LORD, and there is no other.
    I create the light and make the darkness.
I send good times and bad times.
    I, the L
ORD, am the one who does these things.

—Isaiah 45:6b-7 (NLT)



Sovereign and Loving LORD,


You are the LORD, and there is no other! Sovereign Ruler over light and darkness—good times and bad—You use all things for my good and for Your glory!


May I never question the wisdom of Your plans and purposes for everything that You allow to happen in my life.

For out of the darkest nights of my life, You have brought forth the greatest blessings and from my hardest struggles, You have forged within me ever greater strength, faith, and victory—as You tell the story of Your love for me through the pages of my life.

May I never resent anything You choose to send my way.  For if I allow You to do so, You will use all things to help me grow spiritually, as You deepen my understanding and wisdom—that I might use what I have learned as a testimony to others of Your goodness and love.

Help me to thank You in the good times—and in the bad times help me to remain thankful to You, so that I might be open to see Your hand at work on my behalf and be quick to respond to what You have to show me.

May I never question the wisdom of Your plans and purposes for everything that You allow to happen in my life.


You are the LORD, and there is no other! Sovereign Ruler over light and darkness—good times and bad—You use all things for my good and for Your glory!


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
