Dr. David Jeremiah Inspired Daily Prayer | November 14, 2026
Waiting is one of the hardest parts of life. Waiting for a job offer. Waiting for test results. Waiting for a prodigal child to come home, for a marriage to heal, or for a prayer you have prayed for years to be answered. The days feel long, and sometimes it seems as if heaven is silent.
This Dr. David Jeremiah inspired daily prayer for November 14, 2026 is for anyone in a season of waiting. It asks God for renewed strength, not only at the end of the wait, but right in the middle of it.
Today’s Scripture
“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” — Isaiah 40:31, KJV
Isaiah wrote these words to people who felt forgotten. They were in exile, far from home, and they wondered if God had lost track of them. The prophet reminded them that the Creator of the ends of the earth never grows tired and never forgets His people.
Notice the order in the verse: mount up, run, walk. We might expect it to go the other way, starting slow and building speed. But sometimes the greatest miracle is not flying. It is simply being able to keep walking, one ordinary day at a time, without fainting. God gives strength for that too.
Waiting on the Lord is not passive. It means trusting Him while you keep doing what is in front of you: going to work, loving your family, praying, and refusing to give up hope.
A Prayer for Strength While You Wait
Lord, You know what I am waiting for. You know how long I have been praying and how tired I feel some days. I bring this waiting to You again this morning, and I ask You to renew my strength.
When I am tempted to think You have forgotten me, remind me that You never grow weary and never lose track of Your children. Help me trust that You are working even when I cannot see any change. Let me remember the times in the past when You answered at just the right moment.
Give me patience that is not just gritting my teeth, but resting in You. Keep me from trying to force doors open that You have not opened yet. Help me do today’s work faithfully while I wait for tomorrow’s answer.
Guard my heart from bitterness. When I see others receive what I am still praying for, help me celebrate with them instead of resenting them. Let my waiting make me more compassionate toward others who are waiting too.
If today feels like a day for walking instead of flying, give me strength simply to keep walking. I trust You with the timing and the outcome. My hope is in You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Pray Through Your Day
Carry this prayer with you in three short moments today.
Morning: Lord, I bring my waiting to You again this morning. Renew my strength for whatever this day requires.
Midday: Father, if today feels like walking instead of flying, give me strength just to keep walking with You.
Evening: Lord, thank You for carrying me through another day of waiting. I place tomorrow’s answer in Your hands and rest tonight.
One Small Step Today
Write down what you are waiting for and today’s date. Under it, write one way God has been faithful to you in the past. Keep this note in your Bible or journal. Later, when the answer comes, you will be able to look back and see His faithfulness.
