A Prayer About Staying on Course

Lord, thank you for life and strength

Thank you for open doors

Lord you are the promise keeper and your mercy and goodness are eternal

Lord, thank you for giving us access to sit at your feet and stand firm in faith

Lord, thank you for your patience if we loose sight of you and don’t remember that there are plans you have for us

Lord if we forget that your vision for our future is already set in motion, when we are uncomfortable with relying on what you know, set a clear message before us that our whole self will find clarity in fulfilling your will

Whether that be with us being still, planting, watering, toiling, gathering, or supporting others as they do those things

That we do them giving you all the glory

Lord it is nice to see the fruits of labor as evidence to our reward for our obedience

Lord we know that may not always be the case because we cannot see through the beginning and to the end like you

Lord give us the strength to carry on when we believe the lies that our work is in vain

Lord, help us to be comforted by knowing truth as You define truth

Help us to pick up our cross daily and be yoked with you

Lord place people in our lives who help us to reposition our sails when they are straying away from you

Lord, most importantly that we be in strong relationship with you that we be in communion with you, that our love for you beyond our own understanding

That as we move through this earth we leave a fragrance of you wherever we go – that we lead all eyes and hearts toward you and their minds be captivated and in awe of you and your magnificence such that they are obedient to you

Lord, thank you

Lord, thank you for Jesus

Lord, thank you for the power of prayer

Lord, thank you for the power of Your Word

Lord, thank you for wisdom

Lord, thank you for discernment

Lord, thank you for the peace that passes understanding

In Jesus’ name

Amen
