If your heart’s desire is to please God and fulfil His will for your life, here’s a prayer for you: ‘Lord, thank You that even though You know everything about me, You still love me. You know my thoughts, my mistakes, my sins – and yet You still call me your child. Your grace towards me is more than I can understand. More than anything else, I want to know You personally and sense Your presence in my life each day. If there’s any part of me that I’ve kept from You, show me so that I can invite You to rule and reign there. I pray that the Holy Spirit will come and refresh my soul with rivers of living water, then flow out through me into a dry and thirsty world (see John 7:38-39). Help me to keep my eyes fixed on You instead of others (see Hebrews 12:1-2). Lord, be my richest treasure always. Help me never to make an idol out of anyone or anything or allow possessions or the distractions of this world to get in front of You in any way. You’re my healer, my hope, and my strength. When I need freedom, You’re my strong deliverer. You’re my shield from the Enemy, my counsellor when I need guidance, and my stronghold in the day of trouble (see Psalm 32:7). You really are the God of miracles! Please work Your miracles of grace in my life and keep changing me from day to day into Your likeness (see 2 Corinthians 3:18). In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.’
