Daily Prayer

  A Prayer to Be Wise - Your Daily Prayer Proverbs 16:16 says, “How much better to get wisdom than gold, to get insight rather than silver!” When King Solomon could ask for whatever he wanted from God, he chose wisdom. 1 Kings 3:10 says, “The Lord was pleased that Solomon had asked for this.” The Lord delighted in giving Solomon wisdom. He was pleased with this question, and I believe that God is still pleased when we ask Him for wisdom today. One of the best prayers that we can pray is the same as Solomon's. We too can ask God for wisdom. The amazing thing about living after Jesus’ resurrection is that we have been given the gift of the Holy Spirit. God’s Spirit Himself lives inside of us. We have full access to His wisdom if we would just seek the Spirit over our flesh. Wisdom is better than everything that this world has to offer because it is knowledge applied. When this is Biblical knowledge, Christ-like knowledge, this is not only influential but life-changing. Let's Pray...

  A Morning Prayer for God's Presence Lord, may nothing separate me from You today. Teach me how to choose only Your way today so each step will lead me closer to You. Help me walk by the Word and not my feelings. Help me to keep my heart pure and undivided.  Protect me from my own careless thoughts, words, and actions. And keep me from being distracted by MY wants, MY desires, MY thoughts on how things should be. Help me to embrace what comes my way as an opportunity... rather than a personal inconvenience. And finally, help me to rest in the truth of Psalm 86:13, 'Great is your love toward me.' You already see the ways I will fall short and mess up. But right now, I consciously tuck Your whisper of absolute love for me into the deepest part of my heart. I recognize Your love for me is not based on my performance. You love me, warts and all. That's amazing. But what's most amazing is that the Savior of the world would desire a few minutes with me this morning. Lord...

  When you hear the name Jesus, what picture pops into your head? Maybe you envision a famous painting of a Caucasian-looking Jesus that you saw hanging in your church entryway growing up. Maybe you picture him as a Middle Eastern man or as a cartoony image from pop culture. Whatever you envision, Jesus likely appears in your head as an adult. How often do you picture Jesus as a baby? I’d wager to guess that outside of December, most people don’t. It seems that Christianity saves focusing on Jesus as an infant for Christmas. His incredible transformation of God to baby gets less airtime during the other 11 months of the year. Recently, I was blessed to give birth to a baby boy and have been reminded anew how crass and humiliating it is to be a baby. Babies can’t do anything for themselves! I usually like to think about Jesus in all his full-grown might and glory because it is a comfort to me, as I am all too aware of my sinfulness and find so much peace in the conquering work that ...

 Lord, it is through Your amazing grace and incredible love that I am who I am, a sinner saved by grace through faith in Christ Jesus my Lord and Saviour.   Thank You, that I have been set free from the law of sin and death by the Spirit of life, Who indwells my heart and Who teaches me Your truth and knowledge, for You are a faithful and gracious God Who is rich in mercy and love.   Thank You, that I have been redeemed by Christ and am fully justified in Your eyes because He was made sin on my account, and paid the full price for my sin. How I praise You that by God’s grace, I have been brought back into fellowship with God.   Thank You, that Christ is raised from the dead and has become the first-fruit of those that rise, and that I am a partaker of His eternal life, through time and into eternity. Thank You, that there is no condemnation to those that are in Christ Jesus. Thank You in Jesus' precious name for Your amazing grace,   Amen.

 How we bless and thank You Father, for the great grace and love that You have poured out abundantly on mankind by sending Your only begotten Son to die on the cross for our sakes, so that by believing in Him we may be forgiven of our sins and receive Your free gift of eternal life. How we praise You, our God and Saviour. Thank You, that our whole Christian life is flooded with Your grace, for not only have You saved us from eternal death and the shocking consequences of our sins, but You have broken the power of sin in the life of each of Your children. We do not have to be slaves to the sin nature anymore, but are free to walk in newness of life, through the power of the indwelling Holy Spirit. How we praise Your holy name. And Lord, what great hope we have in our eternal future, our heavenly home, our eternal life and the abundant riches of Your grace, for You have promised to change our lowly bodies to become just like unto Your glorious resurrected body, for all eternity. All ...

 Father, we are so blessed to be called Your children and to have Christ as our Saviour. Thank You for sending Him to die on the cross to pay the price for our sins, and thank You, that His resurrection life is ours by grace through faith in Him. Thank You, that He is the wisdom of God and the power of God, and that we have been given a new life in Christ, so that in His grace and mercy we have become more than conquers through Him Who loved us, and gave Himself for us. Thank You, that we have been given all that we need for life and godliness and that no matter what difficulties or dangers we may be called upon to face, we have an assurance that His grace is sufficient for all our needs, for His strength is made perfect in our weakness. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

 Heavenly Father and gracious God, I ask that the power of Your presence would rest upon me and that You would pour forth Your sufficient grace over my life, so that I may abide in Christ Jesus day by day and bear much fruit to Your praise and glory.   Let me not look to my own fleshly strength and human abilities, but to the Lord Jesus alone, recognising that without Him I can do nothing, and yet knowing that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me with His resurrected life, through the power of the indwelling, Holy Spirit of God.   Thank You that by means of Jesus' death and resurrection, He won the victory over sin and death, and that as a child of God I am identified with that victory, which will provide me with the sufficient strength that I need to face every eventuality in life.    Work in me I pray, so that I may accomplish all that You have purposed for me to do in Christ’s name, and thank You that You have promised to supply the sufficien...

 Dear Heavenly Father, I come boldly to the throne of grace in the name of Jesus Christ, my Lord and Saviour, so that in Your loving-kindness and great mercy I may find the specific and sufficient grace that is needed to help in time of need.   Lord, the days are getting darker and I need Your abundant grace in so many areas of my life, knowing that it is only as I abide in Jesus by grace through faith, that I will be enabled to be fortified against every evil thought, word and work and live godly in Christ Jesus, to Your praise and glory.   I pray that I may receive grace upon grace as You have promised in Your Word, and am asking to be supplied with God’s grace so that sin will not gain dominion over me, but that I will become a vessel fit to be used in Your service and a channel of Your love and grace to all with whom I come in contact today.   May I decrease and Christ increase in every area of my life, until it is not I that live, but Christ that lives in me, to...

 What a privilege it is to be called a child of God and to have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God’s dear Son, simply because of God’s amazing grace, which has been poured out on me in abundance, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, my Kinsman-Redeemer, Who became a sin-sacrifice in my place, so that I could be made right with God.   With all my heart, thank You, Father. I am not worthy to gather up the crumbs under Your table, and yet You have clothed me in Christ’s righteousness. Thank You for Your amazing grace in making me a child of God, and a partaker in the high, heavenly calling.   As an ambassador of heaven, I pray that I may reflect Christ’s beauty and grace to others. I pray Christ may be seen in me so that others may be drawn to Him, and I pray that I may decrease in the sight of others so that He may increase in every area of my life. This I ask in Jesus' name,   Amen.

 Heavenly Father, I thank You that I am justified by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, but I desire to live a life that is set apart to You, to live a sanctified life that is honouring to Your name. Lord, I know that only as Jesus lives in me and works through me, will I be able to live the sanctified life that You desire, and grow in grace and mature in the faith as You Word instructs, and so I come today to ask You for sanctifying grace to live the life I have been called to live. I pray that You would pour out Your sanctifying grace in great measure, so that I can avoid what is evil and do that which is pleasing in Your sight.   I pray that my whole spirit, soul and body would be kept blameless before You, and that I would shun that which is evil, abstain from sexual immorality and walk blameless before You, in love. I also pray this prayer for all those that have trusted the Lord Jesus as Saviour, that they would develop a deep desire to be holy, for You are ho...

 Heavenly Father, I know that it is good for us to wait quietly for You to work out Your good purpose in each of our lives, yet I know that so often I find myself becoming restless when things go wrong or when things do not go according to my plans. Lord, please teach me how to rest in You and to be able to wait patiently for You to carry out Your good purpose in my life.   I know that too often, my patience seems to wear thin and I get irritable or angry and I know that this is not honouring to You. Teach me I pray, what it means to wait patiently for You to work Your good pleasure in my life.   Keep me from my own strivings and stresses and give me the grace not to get impatient if things do not happen according to my own expectations, but in everything may I learn to rest in Your love and to wait patiently for all You have for me in every circumstance of life. Thank You, in Jesus' name,      Amen.

 Heavenly Father, thank You that I am not under law but under grace, and I pray that by Your sufficient grace I will be enabled to keep walking in spirit and truth all the days of my life. Do not let sin have dominion over me I pray, and may my fleshly desires and any ungodly inclinations remain nailed to the cross. I pray that I may willingly submit to the Holy Spirit’s work in my life and daily say, "Thy will be done."   Thank You, that by grace through faith in Christ, I have been set free from the law of sin and death and have been given a new life in Him, which has released me from my bondage to sin. And by Your grace, I pray You will keep me walking in spirit and truth, living in holiness and righteousness all my days, so that by God’s grace I may be increasingly conformed into the image and likeness of Jesus Christ.   May the world be crucified to me and I to the world through the cross of Jesus Christ my Saviour, and may I live and move and have my being in Him, u...

 Dear Lord Jesus, I thank You for my life and for becoming my Saviour. Words cannot describe how thankful I am to know that You were made sin for me so that I might become the righteousness of God in You. Although  I know that this is true it is hard to understand what I must have cost You in pain and suffering, but I praise and glorify Your name for I have been accepted in Christ and clothed in His righteousness, and I want to live my life as You intended man to live.   I pray, that I may be given the grace to live my life in total dependence upon You, to walk in spirit and truth and to submit my will to You. Help me to cast all my cares on You and not to try to sort things out in my own strength. Help me to walk as unto the Lord and to present my life as a living and holy sacrifice to You.   I pray, that Your thoughts and desires would become mine so that I may be given the grace to pray into Your will and to do only those things that are pleasing to You.   I ...

 Heavenly Father, how I praise and thank You that I have received forgiveness of my sins by grace through faith in Jesus and have redemption through the blood of Christ. Lord, You are so rich in mercy and grace, love and forgiveness, and I pray that I may be empowered to forgive others as Christ forgave me, unconditionally and without any resentment or hidden hurt.   Father, I know that in my own power I would not be able to forgive some of those that have caused me deep pain and anguish of heart, but Father, when I consider what Christ has done for me and how much I have been forgiven by You, I want to be able to forgive others in the same gracious way that You have forgiven me.   Give me the grace to forgive unconditionally, to forgive others as Christ forgave me. I ask this in His name,   Amen.

 Dear God, I want to be forgiven. I don’t know what to do to be forgiven, but I want Your forgiveness, and so I am praying to You for the grace to be forgiven. I want to know that You have forgiven me all my sins. Please forgive me, God.   I have done a lot of wrong things, really bad things that don’t deserve forgiveness, but I have been told by my Christian friends that Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay the price for my sins, and God, I believe that He did. And I am sorry for all my sins. I repent of my sins, because I know that it was my sins that sent Jesus to the cross.   I cant quite take it in that all I have to do is to believe that Jesus died for me and that He rose again, and that by believing in Him for my salvation, You will save me by Your grace, forgive my sins and give me eternal life. Thank You, Lord. Thank You, God, that by Your grace I am forgiven of my sins. In Jesus' name,   Amen.

 Heavenly Father, as the advancing years become increasingly evident in my sagging body, decreasing speed and dwindling strength, as well as my various memory lapses, I pray that You would give me the wisdom to embrace my advancing years with grace and enthusiasm, rather than view it as something to dread.   I pray that You would enable me to age with grace and embrace my senior citizen status with the desire to make every day count, and my old age and retired status to be considered as an advantage rather than see it as an affliction that has to be endured.   Help me to look to You increasingly for all my needs as the years roll by, and thank You that You have promised that Your grace is sufficient and is made perfect in my weakness. Thank You, that this world is not my home but that my citizenship is in heaven. But until that time when You take me to be with Yourself, I pray that I may be active in spirit, soul and body and live my life as unto the Lord. In Jesus' name ...

 Heavenly Father, I know that the Bible says that I am forgiven by repenting of my sins and turning to Christ. I know that I am saved by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, and yet I find that My thoughts constantly go back to my many sins and misdeeds and I find that I cant accept that I have been fully and unconditionally forgiven of my sin by You. I know that You have said that as far as the east is from the west, so far have You removed my sin from me, and yet I find that my joy in believing is often cut short as I doubt that it cannot possible be true.   Help me Lord, to believe what Your Word says about my forgiveness. Give me the grace to truly accept that You have forgiven all my sins unconditionally, past, present and future, and that my sins will be remembered no more.   Thank You, Lord, that I am forgiven. Thank You, Father, for sending the Lord Jesus to pay the price for my sins on the cross. I pray that in His strength, I may live my life for Him ev...

 Loving Father, thank You that day by day we are being conformed into the likeness of the Lord Jesus, and for the work that You have promised to do in each of our lives. Lord, You know the increasing difficulties that I am having with this particular relationship. You know my weaknesses and my failings, and You know only too well that I find it more and more difficult to be civil when we are in each others company. But Lord, I know that this inner turmoil that I have is not Your will for me. I know that Your desire is that the grace and love of the Lord Jesus flows out from me to others, not only to those that are easy to get along with, but especially to those that are the most difficult. Help me to rest in You and to hand over this difficulty to You, for You have told us to cast everything that troubles me onto You. Teach me Lord, to respond in a way that You would desire. Change me Lord. Change my whole attitude and change my heart so that it is Your grace that streams out from ...

 Loving Lord, I thank and praise You for my job and my place of work. You have been gracious in providing this position for me and I thank and bless You for always being there for me.   As I carry out my daily duty at work, I pray that You would lead and guide so that I may be a good witness to my workmates as well as the management. I pray that by Your grace I would bring the fragrance of the Lord Jesus into the work-place so that others would want to know the beauty of His Person and come to a saving faith in the Lord Jesus.   Give me the strength and stamina to work well and produce of my best to Your praise and glory. Give me wisdom in the decisions I may be called upon to make and give me a gracious attitude, even in in the midst of those moments of stress and weariness.   Give me grace also to bear any ridicule and jokes that are sometimes made at my expense because of my trust in Jesus. May I learn to rejoice in everything, even on those occasions when I am tr...

 Loving Lord and Heavenly Father, we are gathered here to celebrate this special day and thank You for the marriage vows that have been exchanged between the bride and groom.   We pray Your blessing on their shared commitment to each other, and pray that Your lasting grace and peace would rest on their future life together.   Thank You for the many friends and family members who have been able to support the happy couple in person, as they make their life-long commitment to one another, and for the fellowship that we are all enjoying around this meal table.   We ask Your blessing on this first meal that they will share together as man and wife, and pray Your continued blessing on their future life together. May You lead and direct their future path and may they always keep Jesus at the centre of their marriage, and rely on Him in all things.   Bless us all as we join together in this celebration meal, and may Your grace and love rest on each person that is prese...

 Loving Heavenly Father, thank You that You have given us all that we need for life and godliness, but Lord, I also pray that You would grant me godly wisdom and the sufficient grace to navigate my way through life, in the power of the Holy Spirit.   You have called us to be as wise as serpents and yet as gentle as doves, and so I ask for Your practical wisdom, gracious sensitivity and wise discernment so that I may be enabled to identify what is from You, and what is designed to trip up Your children in these end times, and even deceive the very elect of  God.   Father, I know that in these last days the Church is going to be flooded with the spirit of deception and many unbiblical teachings, and Lord, we appear to be in this position today. But I praise and thank You I am in Christ, Who has become for me the wisdom from God. I praise Your name that I am in Christ, clothed in His righteousness and redeemed by His blood.   Grant me I pray, that sufficient grace ...

 Heavenly Father, in a world that is becoming more and more alienated from You and increasingly critical of others people, I ask for Your grace and understanding so that I may live godly in Christ Jesus and not be adversely affected by the divisions and disunity that seem to be infiltrating the church body as well as the secular world system.   Father, I know that the Bible tells us that in these end days, the love of many will grow cold and it seems that we are living in the midst of a generation that has become cold-hearted, indifferent, unloving and disinterested in their fellow man.   Give me the ability to live in this world without being affected by its critical spirit, and give me the understanding and grace to love others as Christ has loved me, to consider the needs and desires of others as before my own and to value other people above myself, even when I am the butt of their criticism. May Jesus be seen in me in all I say and do, and may His love influence all I...

 Heavenly Father, I come to You once again to draw on Your sufficient grace which You have promised to all Your children, and I pray that You would give me Your perfect peace, to guard my heart in these very difficult days.   Throughout my life, I have come to You in time of hardship and You have never let me down. Thank You, that the length and breadth and height and depth of Your grace is beyond my understanding, and that Your perfect peace is beyond my comprehension, and yet You provide both grace and peace to all whose mind is stayed on You.   I pray that I in my weakness I would know Your strength, in my sadness I would know You joy, in my pain I would know Your healing touch, and in these hard and difficult times, I pray that I would know Your amazing grace and Your perfect peace deep within my soul. This I ask in Jesus' name, Amen.

 Dear God, I am asking that Your grace and mercy would continue to follow me all the days of my life, as You have promised in You Word. Teach me to understand Your ways and grant me wisdom I pray, to live my life in a way that is pleasing and honouring to You.   Thank You, that You are my Shepherd and how I praise You for Your day-by-day provision and for the comfort and joy that You have brought into my life.   Thank You for always being there for me, to lead and to guide, to protect and to comfort, even when I falter and fail. Thank You for Your rod of discipline and Your staff of comfort, which have proved to be such a solace in time of need.   Grant me Your mercy and grace to live my life to the full, and to carry out the work and witness that You have prepared for me to do. Refresh my soul and revive my spirit with streams in the desert, and continue to pour out Your bountiful grace and never-failing mercy, which is new every morning, great is Your faithfulness,...

 Heavenly Father, teach me to number my days and give me the wisdom and grace to make every day count. May each passing day be an opportunity for me to draw closer to You, and help me to realise how very transient life is.   Keep me looking to Jesus moment by moment and grant me wisdom, guidance and grace in the daily decisions I may be called upon to make today, for I understand more and more that every one of my steps needs to be guided by You.   Continually guard and guide me as You have promised, and lead me into the paths of righteousness for His name’s sake. Thank You that Your grace is sufficient for all my needs and necessities, and may I walk in the paths of righteousness all the days of my life, to Your praise and glory. This I humbly ask in Jesus' name, Amen.

 Thank You, Heavenly Father, that Your mercies are new every morning and that Your faithfulness never fails. Thank You, that You are interested in every area of my life and that despite my many faults and failings, You have promised to lead and to guide in all things. And thank You Lord, that You have promised to supply the sufficient grace I need in every situation of my life.    Father, as I seem to have come to a bit of a stand-still in my life, I pray for Your grace and guidance to lead and direct in the days that lie ahead. You have promised in Your Word to be with me and to go before me, so that if I turn to the right hand or to the left, I will hear a voice right behind me guiding me, saying, "This is the way, walk in it."   Give me Your grace and guidance in the choices I need to make and direct my thinking, so that my firm resolve and final decisions will be in line with Your perfect will for my life.   Thank You, Father, that Your grace is sufficient a...

 Heavenly Father, You have promised to supply all our needs according to Your riches in glory in Christ Jesus, and I come to You today as I am facing some difficult financial times and am asking You to furnish me with both the finances I need, and Your sufficient grace to go through this difficult time in my life.   Father, as I face this time of financial uncertainly I know that my only sure foundation is Christ, and I pray that I may rest securely in Him, and depend on Him in all things. Restore to me the joy of my salvation I pray, knowing that His grace is sufficient to see me through this time of trial for His strength is made perfect in my weakness.   Into Your hands I place my request for Your grace in this time of financial difficult. This I pray in Jesus' name, Amen.

 Dear Lord Jesus, we thank You for our family and friends and the opportunity of joining together in this time of family worship as we lift up our voices in joyful praise and thanksgiving for all Your goodness and grace to us. Thank You for the opportunity to come before You as a family to offer up our intercessions and prayers.   Thank You for providing for our daily needs and the necessities of life, and for the many blessings that You shower over each one of us with such abundance. Thank You for our daily food, our home our health and the love that we share together. And most of all, we thank You for Jesus, Who died on the cross to pay the price for our sins and rose again the third day, breaking the power of sin and death in our lives, and how we praise and thank You for the indwelling Holy Spirit, Who leads and guides and protect us, day-by-day.   Forgive us for the times when we have neglected to keep Jesus as the central Person in our lives, and for the times when ...
