My Prayer

Grant me the strength, Lord, to persevere through trials and tribulations, keeping my eyes fixed on You, the author and perfecter of my faith. In moments of weakness or doubt, remind me of Your unwavering love and the promise of Your presence.

Father, as I strive to do Your will, imbue me with the wisdom and discernment to recognize the paths You have laid out for me. Help me to use the authority and responsibilities You bestow not for personal gain, but as tools to serve others, to reflect Your love, and to further Your kingdom.

I pray for the courage to lead in a manner that honors You, to be a beacon of Your light in this world. May my actions and words always point others to You, showcasing the transformative power of Your grace.

In moments of triumph and in trials, let me never lose sight of the eternal hope and victory we have in Christ. May this hope inspire and sustain me, driving me forward in service, love, and dedication to Your cause.

Thank You, Lord, for Your promises and for the assurance that in You, we are more than conquerors. I trust in Your plan and submit my life to Your sovereign will.

In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
