Discipleship Prayer

Let's pause for a moment as we start this new year...

Let’s spend a moment today just praying. Let the words soak into your heart, your mind, and your soul as you prepare for your day, as you end your day, or as you take a much needed break in the midst of your busy-ness.

I have linked each like with it corresponding devotional.

DISCIPLESHIP PRAYER

Heavenly Father—God Most High, Most Holy, Most Loving

Jesus—the Christ, Messiah, Immanuel—The Way, the Truth, and the Life

Holy Spirit—Our Strength, our Comfort, our Helper and Guide

Almighty, Triune God

———

Your name is holy and worthy to be praised above all others

You are perfect in love and in all your plans and purposes

We bow before you today with humble, thankful hearts

———

Let your kingdom rule in my body, my relationships, and my world

Let love and mercy be the starting point of everything I do

Let justice and truth be always on my mind and on my lips

Let your grace, your peace, and your blessing flow through me daily

———

I desire to walk close to you today, Lord

In all things give me what I need and no more

Love & wisdom; perseverance & courage; guidance and direction

Show me your ways, O Lord, teach me your path

———

Forgive me when I turn my back on you or hurt the people around me; (Also here)

When I am less than loving, less than peaceful, and less than truthful

And give me strength to truly forgive those who do the same to me

———

Teach me to follow you more and more

To trust in you more and more

To listen to and obey you more and more

———

Let my words be full of grace and seasoned with salt

Let my thoughts and actions be full of spiritual fruit:

Love, Joy, Peace, patience, Kindness, Faithfulness, gentleness, and Self-control

———

Keep me from things that knock me down and pull me away from you

And when these things come, give me strength to stand firm

For your kingdom is a kingdom of power, hope, and forgiveness

Your way is the way of fullness and life

In Jesus name…Amen
