​10 Truths of God to Pray

Prayer is a powerful way to connect with God, align our hearts with His Word, and deepen our faith. Yet, there are times when we may feel unsure of where to begin or what to say. Thankfully, Scripture offers us a treasure trove of truths about God’s character that can guide and enrich our prayers, giving us the words and focus we need to draw closer to Him.

Here are 10 profound truths about God, rooted deep in Scripture, that remind us of who He is and how we can trust Him with every aspect of our lives. These truths not only strengthen our prayers but also serve as a source of encouragement, hope, and peace in every season. As you incorporate them into your prayers, may your faith be strengthened, your trust in His promises grow, and your relationship with God deepen day by day.

1. God is Faithful

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23

Prayer: Lord, I thank You for Your unchanging faithfulness. Even when I falter, You remain true to Your promises. Help me trust in Your steadfast love, knowing that Your mercies are new every morning.

2. God is Our Provider

“And my God will supply every need of yours according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19

Prayer: Father, Jehovah Jireh, I praise You as my Provider. You know my needs even before I even ask. Help me to trust You fully, knowing that You provide in abundance according to Your perfect will.

3. God is Our Refuge

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1

Prayer: Lord, You are my refuge and strength in times of trouble. When I feel overwhelmed, remind me that You are my safe place. Help me to rest in Your protection and lean on Your strength.

4. God is Love

“God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” 1 John 4:16

Prayer: Father, thank You for being the very essence of love. Teach me to love others as You have loved me, and let Your love flow through me as a testimony of Your grace.

5. God is Our Healer

“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” Psalm 147:3

Prayer: Heavenly Father, Jehovah Rapha, You are the Healer of my body, mind, and spirit. I surrender my pain and brokenness to You, trusting in Your power to restore and renew me.

6. God is Sovereign

“The Lord has established His throne in the heavens, and His kingdom rules over all.” Ps. 103:19

Prayer: Lord, I trust in Your sovereignty over every aspect of my life. Even when I don’t understand, I know You are in control and working all things for my good and Your glory.

7. God is Our Shepherd

“The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Psalm 23:1

Prayer: Father, Jehovah Raah, thank You for being my Shepherd. You lead me beside still waters and restore my soul. Help me to follow You faithfully, knowing that You care for every detail of my life.

8. God is Gracious and Forgiving

“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:9

Prayer: Lord, I thank You for Your grace and forgiveness. When I stumble, You are there to lift me up and cleanse me. Teach me to live in the freedom of Your mercy and extend forgiveness to others.

9. God is Always Present

“The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save.” Zephaniah 3:17

Prayer: Father, Jehovah Shammah, thank You for Your constant presence in my life. Even in the darkest moments, I am never alone because You are with me, mighty to save and full of joy over me.

10. God is Our Peace

“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John 14:27

Prayer: Lord, Jehovah Shalom, You are my peace in the midst of chaos. Guard my heart and mind with Your perfect peace. Help me to rest in You and not let fear take hold.

​Praying God’s truths not only anchors us in His Word but also reassures us of His unchanging character. When we focus on who God is—faithful, sovereign, loving, and ever-present—we are reminded of His promises and experience peace in His presence.

As you incorporate these truths into your prayers, friend, let them become a foundation of trust and hope in every season of your life. God delights in drawing near to you through prayer and revealing more of Himself to you.  Let this be the year you grow closer to Him, one prayer at a time.

​Which truth about God do you most need to hold onto in this season of your life, and how might praying it deepen your trust in Him?
