🙏 A Prayer of Restoration

Father,

I bring before You the years that have been eaten by locusts—

The seasons of loss, of struggle, of barrenness.

The time stolen by the enemy,

The opportunities that slipped away,

The dreams that seemed to wither.

But You are the God of restoration.

You redeem what is broken.

You restore what is lost.

You bring life from death.

I ask You to restore my life from the days eaten by locust.

Restore the years that were wasted.

Bring fruit from the dry ground.

Turn my mourning into dancing.

I trust that You are working all things for my good.

I believe that You are making all things new.

"I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten." (Joel 2:25)

In Jesus' name,

Amen.
