Prayer

My sacrifices have been tainted by compromises.

God I will resist for Your relentless voice, Your undying beauty, and Your unfailing faithfulness.

I will be Your child once again. Give me faith like a child, the trust of a child, the dependency of a child, the longing of a child, the curiosity of a child, the innocence of a child. Renew me; fill me up again with the saving grace that brought me to my knees.

The worries of the world will fade away with Your comforting hands. All cloudy skies of confusion will be removed with the sight of Your oncoming sunlight.

God I'm inadequate, I'm useless without the power You give, the love that You give, the purpose You give. God use me for Your kingdom. Cast away fear of rejection, of mockery, of persecution and let me stand righteously as a disciple and an apostle for Your kingdom. Father rain down heaven on earth to all of us, who are undeserving, unrepentant sinners. God bring relationships to a crossroad where Jesus can mend all brokenness and wounds.

You are the most glorified when I'm the most satisfied. And I seek to comprehend the words you speak and when you woo me into Your dwelling place, I'm mesmerized by Your raging, passionate love for me. God let me abide in You; I want to dine with You and sleep with Your comforting lyrics soothing me and casting all fear when I lie in Your presence.

Father give hope to the unfaithful, give life to the dying, and bring prayer and petition to Your lovers who follow so whimsically. Bring hearts for the poor, the sick, the lost, and bring new strength that is only found in You to revive Your bride. We want a heart like Yours God. We want to love because You have loved us first.

God let my book of life be big! I want to impact, to encourage, the bring failure into the light where it can be redeemed in Your love. God, bring surrender into my life. I want to be wholly Yours. I want to seek only You, to be fulfilled and satisfied by only You. I ask for devotion in the minute things; the things often disregarded as sin but actually corrode the heart. I want my words not to be caustic but something with revelation and love in them. Bring me to my knees. Humble me. Bring me to repentance for my failure to act, love, and seek You.

My beautiful Father, let fear of loneliness and abandonment be casted out in Your name, Jesus. Bring unfailing love into my arms and let me breathe the breath of life that You give. I will not be enslaved by the potential of a world that denies me, but I'll stand liberated from the desire of worldly pleasures. Let freedom reign and let all bondage go as I stand for You and only You God.

Let all false comforts, illegitimate pleasures fall under Your sanctifying fire and let me be refined to meet with You. God hope dangles on Your Son's promises and let me reach out and make those promises a declaration and vow in my life.

Let not the things of this world ever sway me Lord. Let my eyes look away, let my heart stop lusting after things that only temporarily fulfill. Let my heart clear way for a movement of the Spirit. Let me not be an advocate of the enemy but let my heart supress the enemy's deception. Let me die to myself and let the enemy's luring die with it.

I refuse to fail. My life is being lived for more than my own. I earnestly seek the day when my faithfulness with be fruitful as You empower me to lead a nation, to lead a movement, to bring revival and fire back into the dying spirit of Your bride and to bring wonder back into the apathetic. Let us fear You Lord, and only You. Only you can destroy all that we are; Only you can love like You. Keep my eyes focused on this kind of God who never changes, who always remains to be the God that I first fell in love with. So God, lead me as You led Moses and Your beloves out of Egypt. Be the cloud and the fire that leaves no doubt that You are my God. Father, forgive me for my rejection and faithlessness; I'm human but I choose not to be subjected to that predestined state, and instead I will follow You and only You.

Thank you for the day and the people I've encountered. I pray for the salvation of all who yearn for You. Thank You that You are so accessible to all that seek You. Bring insight and vision into my life. I thank You for reaffirming my belief that I'm Your beloved son. I will praise You all my days.


Thank You,

I pray all this in Jesus name, guided by the spirit,
Amen.
