elisha's Mantle
a prayer for the wounded burden bearer......
Dear Lord,
I bring before You __________.
Who because of Your call has in all
earnestness been carrying people in her heart and faithfully interceding for them.
But somewhere along the way,
she became weighed down with the heaviness of the sins of others and forgot Your yoke is to be easy and Your burden light.
She has tried to take more than You intended,
and as a result has been growing weaker and more frustrated each day.
Burden-bearing has become painful to her,
much like a torn ligament or muscle which causes her to wince with every step.
We ask that You touch that torn place with Your power and heal it.
Cradle _________
in Your arms so that she can rest.
Lord, bring the gift of burden-bearing to death on the cross.
Let it be Yours again,
so it will not possess and control ______________
She wants You to own both her and the gift,
Lord, to use for Your glory.
