HOW TO USE SCRIPTURES TO PRAY FOR RESTORATION
Many people read the Bible, but very few know how to turn the scriptures into prayers. One of the most powerful ways to pray is to pray the Word of God back to Him.
When you pray scriptures, you are not praying empty words. You are standing on God’s promises. Heaven responds to God’s Word.
There are people today who need restoration.
Restoration of peace.
Restoration of health.
Restoration of finances.
Restoration of marriage.
Restoration of prayer life.
Restoration after betrayal, pain, delay, failure, or disappointment.
The good news is this: God is still in the business of restoration.
The Bible says in Book of Joel 2:25:
«“And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten…”»
This means God can restore wasted years, missed opportunities, lost joy, damaged relationships, and broken dreams.
How then do you use scriptures to pray for restoration?
First, find a scripture that speaks about restoration.
Second, meditate on it until faith rises in your heart.
Third, turn that scripture into a personal prayer.
For example:
Instead of only reading Joel 2:25, pray like this:
“Father, according to Your Word, restore every good thing I have lost. Restore my joy, restore my peace, restore my spiritual life, restore my opportunities, restore my strength in Jesus’ name.”
Another powerful scripture is Book of Jeremiah 30:17:
«“For I will restore health unto thee, and I will heal thee of thy wounds…”»
You can pray:
“Lord, You promised to restore health and heal wounds. Let every wound in my heart, body, and mind receive healing today.”
The Bible also says in Book of Psalms 51:12:
«“Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation…”»
Some people are alive physically but empty spiritually. They no longer have joy, hunger for God, or peace within.
Pray:
“Father, restore my spiritual fire again. Restore my hunger for prayer. Restore my joy and closeness with You.”
Another powerful restoration scripture is Book of Isaiah 61:7:
«“For your shame ye shall have double…”»
This means your story can still change. God can replace shame with honor and tears with testimony.
Never pray scriptures casually. Pray them with faith, boldness, and consistency.
Do not allow your present condition to make you doubt God. If God restored Job, He can restore you. If God restored David after failure, He can restore you. If God restored Peter after denying Jesus, He can restore you too.
Sometimes restoration is not instant, but every sincere prayer moves heaven.
Today I pray for you:
May God restore every good thing the enemy stole from your life.
May He restore your health, your peace, your family, your prayer life, your purpose, and your joy.
May your lost years become years of testimony.
May God give you beauty for ashes and joy for mourning.
In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Nineveh: When God Sends You to People You Don’t Like
Introduction
Jonah 1:2 says, “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.” That verse names the city, and the city is the problem. Jonah’s trouble was not simply that God told him to travel. Jonah was not allergic to roads. He was not afraid of dust, distance, foreign streets, or long assignments. The issue was Nineveh. God named a place Jonah did not want to enter, a people Jonah did not want to warn, and a mercy Jonah did not want to see extended. That is where the knife goes in. The geography only revealed the heart. Tarshish was not the disease; Tarshish was the symptom. The disease was that Jonah did not want God to deal mercifully with people he had already written off.
Nineveh was wicked. Do not soften that. God Himself said, “their wickedness is come up before me.” Jonah was not wrong to know Nineveh deserved judgment. He was wrong to resent the possibility that God might spare them if they turned. That is the uncomfortable truth. A man can be doctrinally right about judgment and personally wrong about mercy. He can believe God judges sin, believe wickedness deserves wrath, believe cities can become ripe for destruction, and still have a rotten spirit when God sends him to preach instead of simply destroying the people he despises. Jonah’s doctrine of judgment was not the problem. His hatred of mercy toward Nineveh was the problem. He wanted prophecy to end in fire, not repentance. He wanted to be right about their doom more than he wanted God to be glorified in their deliverance.
That is why Jonah is dangerous reading for Bible believers. It is easy to point at liberals, modernists, Catholics, cultists, pagans, atheists, Muslims, idolaters, sodomites, corrupt politicians, false teachers, worldly churches, and wicked cities, and say, “Their wickedness has come up before God.” Often that is true. But Jonah asks another question: if God sent you to warn them, would you go because you wanted them to escape, or would you go hoping the warning failed? That is where prophecy can become a hiding place for prejudice. A man can talk about judgment with Bible verses in his mouth while bitterness sits on the throne of his heart. Jonah shows that God may send a man straight to the people he does not like, not because those people are innocent, but because the preacher needs his heart exposed as much as the city needs its sin confronted.
1. Jonah’s Problem Was Not Geography
The command was geographical on the surface: “Go to Nineveh.” But Jonah’s rebellion was deeper than geography. He did not run because he lacked a map. He ran because he hated the destination. Nineveh represented a people he did not want to help, warn, or see spared. If God had sent Jonah somewhere more agreeable, somewhere inside the borders of his preference, somewhere that served his national pride or religious comfort, the story may have looked different. But God named Nineveh, and that one name dragged Jonah’s heart into the light.
A man can pretend his objection is practical when it is actually spiritual. He says, “It is too far.” “It is too dangerous.” “It is not the right time.” “They will not listen.” “There are other places that need preaching.” “Someone else is better suited.” That may sound reasonable until God’s word strips it down. Jonah did not merely hesitate. He rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. That is not cautious planning. That is rebellion with travel arrangements. The distance to Nineveh was not his real obstacle. The mercy of God toward Nineveh was.
This is where every servant of God has to be honest. There are people we would rather preach against than preach to. There are people we would rather use as examples of judgment than see become trophies of grace. There are people whose sin disgusts us so much that we forget our own salvation came by mercy, not merit.

It is a heavy judgment when God leaves a man to his own lusts and withdraws the restraining guidance of His Holy Spirit. Many think judgment is only when God strikes, but Scripture shows something even more terrifying. God may give a man over to what he insists on loving.
Romans 1 says this with fearful clarity. “Therefore God gave them over in the lusts of their hearts to impurity” (Romans 1:24). That is not freedom. That is judgment. When God lets the sinner have the sin he refuses to forsake, the soul is not being liberated. It is being handed over to its own ruin.
This is why David cried with trembling, “Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me” (Psalm 51:11). He knew that the most frightening thing was not losing comfort, reputation, position, or earthly blessing. It was to be left without the nearness, conviction, correction, and mercy of God.
A man abandoned to himself will not rise. He will sink. His desires will rule him, his conscience will grow dull, his sin will feel normal, and his heart will become harder. “My people did not listen to My voice… so I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart, to walk in their own devices” (Psalm 81:11-12).
So we must pray for mercy. Lord, do not leave us to ourselves. Do not give us what our sinful hearts demand. Restrain us, convict us, wound our pride, guide us by Your Spirit, and keep us near to Christ. Better to be corrected by God than abandoned to our own lusts.
