Father of love and grace, I rejoice that I am Your child and that I have been saved by the blood of Christ and made a new creation in Him. Thank You that my sins are all forgiven by grace through faith in Him, and that there is no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus.
Lord, I want to surrender my will to Yours and to say daily, “Thy will not mine be done.” Help me to step out in faith moment by moment as I surrender my life to You. Uphold me with Your righteous right hand and keep me I pray, from falling. Lead me in the paths of righteousness for Your names sake, and guide me into the way everlasting. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Thank You, Father, for Your great love for me and that You know my needs and the paths that I will take in the future. Help me to discern what my future needs are, and not to confuse them with my own fleshly desires or the vanities of my heart. Give me true discernment, I pray
Lord, my heart is open to Your leading and guidance and my desire is that I do only those things that are righteous in Your sight. For the sake of Your name, I pray that I may be quiet to listen to Your voice and slow to assume that I know Your will when it is my own fleshly thinking. Give me true discernment I pray, to know Your will.
Lord, I know that Your ways are inscrutable and Your mind is unknowable and yet, You have chosen to take up residence in my feeble body. I pray that I may be used of You to be a good and faithful witness in all I say and do. My desire is to do Your will and not mine. Give me true discernment I pray, and wise council. I ask this in Jesus' name,
Amen.
Dear Lord, thank You for the opportunity for this interview.
Lord, I want Your will to be done in my life, so I want Your will to be done in this interview. If this is the right job for me Lord, I pray that the post will be offered to me, but if this is not for me then Lord, I ask that You close the door, for I do not what to be outside of Your perfect will for my life.
Help me to prepare myself to be the best that I can be for this interview, and thank You that no matter what the outcome, I may rest in the knowledge that I remain in the centre of Your will for my life.
Thank You, Lord.
Amen.
Heavenly Father, we read in Your Word that, “where there is no vision the people perish – but blessed is the one that heeds instruction.” Father forgive us for seeking after our own limited, human vision rather that seeking after Your godly and eternal vision.
Forgive us for seeking to place our trust in our own limited view of what we consider is important in our lives and the world in which we live, rather than seeking after the purer perspective of Your eternal plans, for only when we have come to an understanding of Your purposes for the world, can we in honesty and in humility seek for godly wisdom and a godly vision.
Lord we pray, “Thy will be done on earth – Thy kingdom come..” for in so doing we recognise that without the Prince of Peace returning to rule and reign over this world, there will be no rest for humanity and no lasting peace that passes understanding.
Teach us to learn Your vision and to pray into Your will, not only in our personal lives and those of our loved ones, but help us also to come to a deeper knowledge of Your greater vision for the future of mankind, when the earth shall be filled with the glory of God as the waters cover the sea. Help us to soak our hearts in Your perfect desire for mankind, and to understand Your greater purpose for humanity. Give us the wisdom to pray into Your vision, for only as we align our minds to the mind of Christ and our will to the will of the Father, through the power of the Holy Spirit, will we pray effectively.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.
Dear Lord and Heavenly Father, the trials and difficulties that surround us, seem at times to take up so much of our thoughts and prayers, but Lord I ask that You would give me a deeper understanding of how to pray into Your perfect and eternal will, for You have put eternity in my heart and I desire to pray in unity with Your Spirit and in line with Your will.
Teach me Lord, how to focus on my prayers on Your wider plan for man and all that You have purposed for the world, and give me a deep yearning to join my pleadings with Your perfect plans. May I seek first Your millennial kingdom rule on earth and Your eternal kingdom rule in the eternal ages to come.
It was the Lord Jesus Who said, “My will is to the will of Him Who sent me and to finish His world,” and Lord, I pray that You would develop in me an increasingly deep desire to carry our Your will and purpose in my life and prayers, and the understanding and discernment to know how to pray.
May You be glorified in my prayers and may my prayers and pleadings be aligned to Your will. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Hallowed be Your name Father God, and may You be glorified in all that happens today.
Father, as I face another busy day I thank You that You have promised to be with me always, to lead and guide to comfort and sustain, to uphold and strengthen. Lord, I pray that although my life is one of much activity that You would take first place and that in all that I do and may I willingly submit to Your gracious leading and guidance.
Help me to live today in all its fullness, and enable me to take every opportunity to live and walk as You would have me do. Teach me Lord, to be a servant today and develop in me that gracious spirit of humility that was so evident in the Lord Jesus. Create in me a clean heart oh Lord, and develop in me a generous and giving spirit that is pleasing to Your heart. Lord, in everything today may I be ready and willing to say, not my will but Thine be done. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Heavenly Father, it is my desire to do Your will in my life and I have been praying how I may find out how to know what Your will is, so that I can do Your will in my life. Thank You, Lord, for sending me to 1 Thessalonians chapter five, where I see that You have clearly laid out exactly what Your will for each one of us is.
Help me to walk in spirit and truth and encourage my brothers and sisters in the faith. Help me to esteem others as better than myself and support them in love.
Help me I pray, to encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with everyone, always return good for evil and seek after that which is good and lovely and pleasing in Your sight.
Most of all I pray that I develop a heart of ready rejoicing and an attitude of continuous prayer and praise. And give me the ability to be thankful in all things, even those times that prove to be the most difficult and frustrating. Help me to grow in grace and in a knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ and mature in the faith, knowing that this is Your will for my life. Praise Your holy name.
Amen.
Dear Lord, I believe that You uphold the creation by the strength of Your mighty power and Your great wisdom, and that in Your Word You have laid out all that we need to live godly lives that are pleasing to You.
I desire to do Your will oh God, and I pray that I may serve You in the manner that You require. Lord, in humility of heart I admit that I can do nothing of myself, but only as You give me Your sufficient grace, Your wisdom and Your strength.
Help me I pray, to live each day of my life in holiness and righteousness, in humility of heart and with self-control. Help me to walk in spirit and in truth and to do only those things that I have heard from You, through the Word of God and the gentle promptings of Your Holy Spirit in my inner soul.
May I look to You and not to the ways of the world. May I grow in grace and in a knowledge of the Lord Jesus, and may I apply myself diligently to pursue You greater plans and purpose in my life, willingly accepting correction, eager to forgive others and enjoying sweet fellowship with You day by day. This I ask in Jesus' name,
Amen.
