And this is my prayer Lord, that you teach me how to live a simple life. One that I will be contented with what I have now and not to be a slave of this society. Father I ask you to come and teach me humility, so that I wont live my life having to measure up with other people’s successes. Lord allow me to be the last in this world so that I can be the first in your kingdom. Give me the discipline and the burden to continue to be the salt and the light of the marketplace, with the motivation to help the less inform and to glorify your kingdom. O Lord, help me to be able to fight the temptation of greed and having to take short cuts in this industry that you have place me in. Allow me to shine and hold fast to my commitment especially in difficult times, to test the credibility of my words. Lord take control of my career, that you guide through it. Let it be your desires and your will to be done. Help me to stay focus on your works and on you, Lord. That I will never lose sight and conform to the teaching of this world. I want to serve you Lord, would you not use me, mould me and sanctify me.
Come and teach me Lord, what it means to love. To love one unselfishly, unconditionally. To love like you had love me, when there’s nothing in it for you. I had my fair share of fun and mistakes O Lord. Comes and teach me the process of right courtship and motivation and let the next to be my last. That I will not rush into a relationship ever again. That I will hold fast the requirements of what it takes to have a godly relationship. That I will be wise in my decision and the things I do. Only because Lord I do not want to short-change my future wife of what is to come in future and to be selfish to only satisfy my own desires of companionship. Lord mould me into the man you had made me for. That I will be able to lead in a relationship both physically and spiritually. That my relationship and marriage will be one that you will be well pleased. O Lord help me to guard my heart and my eyes, that I will not settle for less and to only settle for the best.
Lord you see my fears and my insecurities. The fear of not being good enough. Not able to measure up. Not able to provide and be the man I want to be. Father today i commit my insecurities and fear to you. That I will walk by faith and not by sight. That I will find my securities in you and my indentity in christ. That I will trust you will provide, like you always do. That all I have to do is to focus on you and everything else will be added on to me. Lord strenghten me. That I will be as strong as a rock. One that is unshakeable and unmoveable, so that Lord I can be a warrior for your kindgom. So that Lord you can use me for the toughest jobs ever possible. That Lord I will be front line for your kingdom and to finish my race for this generation and pass it on well to the next generation. Lord fill me up with your presence, guide me with the holy spirit. Allow me to feed daily on your words and to have a prayerful life. That Lord you are my everything and I am nothing without you. So God I trust and will live my life knowing that you will never short-change me and you have the best for me. So Lord use my life as you wish. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
