A Prayer for Leadership

Lord I lift up those in the position of leadership

That they are good stewards of the responsibilities you have given them

Lord we know that many people see the leader before they see the work that they are doing with those they work with

Lord many times it is their light people see before others

Lord I pray that they light that they show be a lighthouse and a spotlight to lead the way to you the source of life and light

Lord that they know the great responsibility they have to you Lord and to your other children

Lord that they have older sisters and brothers who are mature enough to bear one another’s burdens

Lord as these days have been particularly trying that they do not grow weary for when they reap it will be worthy of double honor

Lord erect a wall of protection that will keep them firmly planted in you and not be swayed by social influence that comes up against your will

Lord that they manage their households Lord that their children have a triple hedge of protection and their angels slay any attacks that come up against them

Lord give them wisdom and your hand guide them as they build up and have faith to move mountains

Lord thank you for giving our leaders the courage to step up when you ask them to

Lord continue to speak to those who are to become leaders that they see you in the path that is leading toward your purpose for them and their lives

In Jesus name I pray
Amen
