When did I become …<\/p>\n

Whether we realize it or not, we are all becoming something – rather, someone. Who that is, depends on many things such as time investment, goals, relationships, etc.<\/a> Today’s freebie is a prayer I wrote several years back after a life-altering event in my life. Left with much regret, my greatest desire was a life lived to the fullest – not a single day of it wasted. Saturated with Scripture, I pray it fills you with the hope and reminds you of His great plans and purposes for your life. I have also prayed this prayer for loved ones.<\/p>\n

Father of heavenly lights,<\/p>\n

I know your will for my life is to seek you in all things and live a grateful life regardless of the circumstances (1 Thess 5:16-18). My heart’s desire is to\u00a0seek you in the area of ___________. If this is your desire and not mine, show me. I desire to test everything, holding on to what is good and avoiding what is not (1 Thess 5:21). \u00a0Direct my heart into your love; a love that chases after your lost world and anchored in Christ’s perseverance (2 Thess 3:5). Gift me with the ability to never tire of doing what is right (2 Thess 3:13). You are my focus and your work, my delight. As I set my heart and mind on things above, fill me with a craving for your Kingdom’s work – work I was born for (Col 3:1-2). Guide me in obedience and make my steps firm as I lean on you\u00a0for answers (Prov 3:5). Teach me to know your ways as I walk in your truth (Psalm 32:8). Give me an undivided heart that I may fear your name (Psalm 86:11). Your word says where there is no vision, the people perish (Proverbs 29:18). Give me a vision for your work, specifically ____________. Let my life be refreshing for others and therefore be refreshed myself (Prov 11:25). You have anointed me to proclaim your good news to the poor, freedom to the prisoners, and declare the year of your favor (Isaiah 61:1). By your power, may I fulfill every good purpose prompted by you (2 Thess 1:11). Equip me with everything needed for doing your will, and work in me whatever is pleasing to you, through my Savior (Hebrews 13:21). Purify my heart from anything that contaminates my walk with you (2 Cor 7:1). Whatever I do whether word or deed, let my life represent you – my King – to the world around me (2 Cor 5:20).<\/p>\n

I pray this through the Author and Perfector of my life, Jesus Christ!<\/p>\n
