My prayer
Please take a moment to relax your mind and humble your heart to focus on
Christ. Allow God to be the only person on your mind while you read this
prayer. If we can take the time to read long jokes, stories, etc., we should
give the same respect to this prayer. Friends who pray together, stay
together.
Dear Lord, I thank You for this day. I thank You for my being able to see
and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an
understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me.
Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not
pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.
Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day
with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each
and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.
Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things in my life till you change them.
Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me
continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when
I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive
the forgiveness of God.
And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -- to
slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm
pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my
heart. Continue to use me to do Your will.
Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong
that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of
encouragement for others. Help me to pray for those who are lost and can't
find their way and for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. Help me
pray for those who don't know You intimately. Help me pray for those who don't believe
and I thank you that I believe.
I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all
my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their
households. I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out
of debt and all their needs are met.
I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem,
circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands
for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the hearts of
every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly.
This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
