Christianity EtcFor Trust In A Special Relationship By Tolulope Ilori by Iwillbeback(op): 11:03am On Mar 30, 2025
For Trust In A Special Relationship

Oh God, I come to You saddened in soul and with a heart that is breaking. You brought a special person into my life, for which I thank You Lord, and we were so happy together for a time. But for many reasons, including my jealous nature, things have gone sour between us and we have moved apart.

Lord, I confess to You that I acted in a way that was not appropriate and did not permit trust between us to develop and to grow as it should. Look down on us in pity I pray, and I ask that You would open up an opportunity for us to be properly reconciled so that we may build up our relationship together.

Lord, I know that so often when we make foolish mistakes, we have to take the responsibility for the outcome, which is not always the way that we would hope. But I do pray that our relationship is not finished, and that in Your grace You would restore again the joy of being together and the special love we had for each other.

Change Me Lord, remove this jealous streak that has caused me so many problems in my life, for I know that this is not from You Lord. Make me more like the Lord Jesus, not only in my actions but in my attitudes and emotions. May Your will be done in our lives and even if we do not get back together Lord, I pray that we may be reconciled, so that we may separate graciously and not in the current animosity. I ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Christianity EtcPrayer To Love God More And More By Tolulope Ilori by Iwillbeback(op): 9:35am On Mar 30, 2025
Prayer To Love God More And More

Lord, how I wonder at Your love for me, in that while I was yet a sinner You sent the Lord Jesus Christ to die for my sins, so that in Him I might become Your child and be made the righteous of God.

Father, it staggers the thoughts of my heart to realise that while I was cold and rebellious towards You and and at enmity with God, that You purposed the glorious plan of redemption in Your heart of love, that guilty sinners could be declared righteous, through believing on the Lord Jesus Christ, Who died to pay the price for our sins with His own life-blood.

Thank You, that in Your grace and mercy, Your strong arm of love reached down to me, long before my rebellious heart of stone, turned towards You for healing.

Lord, my chief complaint is that my love for You is faint and fragile, a love which seems to be so far removed from the depth of love I desire to have for You. Help me I pray, to develop a godly love for You, that is in proportion with the love that You deserve from a sinner such as I, Whom You lifted from the cesspit of sin and chose to save by grace through faith.

Thank You for Your unchanging and unconditional love towards me. Help me more and more to come to a new and deeper understanding of what the Love of God towards me truly means. This I ask in the name of Jesus my Saviour,

Amen.

So help me God 🙏

Prayer For All Who Are Out Of Work

Loving Lord, there are so many dear people in the world today that are out of work at this time and as a result Lord, there is so much hardship and pain. In Your pity and mercy, I ask You to visit those that are struggling because they are jobless or unable to earn a living, knowing that unemployment brings in its wake so much stress and depression, and places such a strain on marriages and relationships.

Lord, be with those that have no jobs, and provide for all their needs, but also comfort and calm those that are living each day in fear that their employment will be terminated, as work-loads increase, while at the same time others are being laid-off.

Lord, we are living in hard times and high unemployment that causes so many to be out of work, and has such a negative influence on the lives of individuals as well as communities in general, and oh Lord, if it were not for the hope that is in Christ Jesus, life would indeed be unbearable. But thanks be to God, Who has given us the victory in Jesus Christ our Lord. Use me I pray, to help and encourage those that I know and to support others as I lift my voice in prayer to You. Hearken to this prayer and send help to those in need, I pray. In Jesus' name,

Prayer For All Those Working In Hospitals

Dear Father God, thank You for all those that have chosen to work in our hospitals and clinics so that they may help others who are seriously ill or needing some specialist health care.

Bless the nursing staff and doctors, and all those that make up the different medical teams, the various therapist, anaesthetists and surgeons, as well as the admin staff and ancillary workers. Bless each staff member, all of whom are so vital to the smooth running of our health centres and hospitals.

Give each one the wisdom and patience to work in this stressful environment, and may Your quiet calmness and peace settle in their hearts, as they work together to care for all their patients.

I pray that many of our hospital staff who do not yet know You, may come to a saving faith in Jesus Christ. Thank You, Lord.

Father, I hand all my stresses to You. My hope and my trust is in You, because You have promised to supply all my needs, according to Your riches in glory. Praise Your holy name.

For Wisdom Regarding Strongholds

Heavenly Father, I know that the Bible says that we do not wrestle against the powers from the earthly sphere, but against satanic forces in the heavenly and spiritual realms, against principalities, powers and other strong forces of evil, whose chief aim is to kill, steal, destroy and shipwreck the lives of all your children.

Lord, help me I pray, to resist the devil, knowing that the Holy Spirit Who is living within me is greater than all the combined forces in the satanic realm. Help me I pray, to utilise every piece of the heavenly armour day by day, and to clothe myself in Christ, knowing that in Him is my protection and my sufficiency to resist all the powers that are coming against me and those I love.

Identify in me any lusts or habits that have become a stronghold and which are adversely taking control of my life. Give me the grace to admit my faults and turn from everything and anything that in any way is dragging me into a slavery to sin. Break I pray all strongholds in my life, knowing that it is only by the cleansing blood of Christ, that I can gain victory over the world and the flesh and any strongholds that have enslaved me.

Lord, I surrender my life to You and pray that from this day forward, You would lead and guide me into all truth. Thank You that in You is freedom from slavery to sin and spiritual release from the power of sin, Satan and strongholds in my life. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

Prayer For Joyful Hearts

Father, in a world where there are so many difficult situations, troubled times and hurting hearts, we lift up those that are going through grievous times and entrust them into Your care. We pray that You would sustain them with Your sufficient strength and pour into their hearts the joy that only comes from You.

Thank You, that the joy of the Lord is our strength and that You have promised that Your grace is sufficient for all eventualities. Keep us all with our hearts fixed on You and instil in our hearts a joyful disposition so that we may bring comfort and cheer to those around us, and be salt and light to those that are facing troubles or difficulties. In Jesus' name,

Amen.

Christianity EtcPrayer For An Obedient Heart By Tolulope Ilori by Iwillbeback(op): 3:22am On Mar 16, 2025
Prayer For An Obedient Heart

Father, we are not of this world system but have a heavenly inheritance, reserved for us in heaven, and so I pray that I will not longer be conformed into the pattern of this world and squeezed into its mould, but day be day be increasingly transformed into the image and likeness of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Help me to take every thought captive and to surrender my heart and life to You in true obedience and godly humility. May we who are Your children be drawn closer to each other and to You as You do a good work in each of our lives. Build us up into a spiritual house I pray, where Christ is the cornerstone and may Your indwelling Holy Spirit, prompt and guide us, encourage and train us.

Lord, I surrender all I am to You today and pray that I may walk in newness of love and humble obedience all the days of my life. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.

A Prayer For Holiness Of Heart

Dear Heavenly Father, You are a holy God and I desire to be holy too. Set apart unto You, and living my life in a manner that is worthy of You and pleasing to You.

Search my heart I pray, and if there is any cherished sin lurking within, I ask that You would search it out and destroy it, for I know that only the one that has clean hands and a pure heart may stand in Your presence.

Purify my heart, cleanse my inner thoughts and examine the very motives behind my acts and attitudes, for I desire to live in holiness of heart. If there is anything that is displeasing to You in my life, I ask that in Your grace You would root it out, so that I may live in godly holiness all the days of my life, clothed in Christ’s righteousness, separated unto You and walking in godly love. This I ask in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Christianity EtcPrayer For A Cheerful Giving Heart By Tolulope Ilori by Iwillbeback(op): 2:28pm On Mar 15, 2025
Prayer For A Cheerful Giving Heart

Lord, I thank You for what You have given me, so many blessings that I cannot begin to count them, they are without number. Lord, I pray that You would develop in me a giving heart that glorifies You, a cheerful heart that desires to give back to You a small measure of the over-abundance that You have poured into my lap.

Father, there are times when I worry about giving and times when I hold back from giving because I have a nagging in my mind that if I give away too much I may render myself without sufficient. Lord, in my heart, I know that this attitude that I have developed is not pure, nor is it founded on true biblical principles, and so I come to You now to ask You to change my heart in respect to giving, so that it more truly reflects a heart that pleases You.

I ask that You would give me wisdom to know what to give, when to give and whom to give to. Change my attitude towards giving I pray, knowing that all things come from You and it is from the over-abundance of the bountiful supply that You have graciously poured into my lap, that I am giving back to You. Give me I pray, a giving heart, a generous heart, a grateful heart. Develop in me a heart that is filled with thanks and praise to You, for all that You have done for me. Hear my prayer, Lord. I ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.

Christianity EtcPrayer For Humility Of Heart By Tolulope Ilori by Iwillbeback(op): 5:39am On Mar 15, 2025
Prayer For Humility Of Heart

Heavenly Father, I confess that my natural tendency is towards pride in its many guises and disguises. I have always wanted to show that I am self-assured and self-confident in front of other people, and yet I now begin to realise that I am in fact displaying pride in the form of selfishness and self-indulgence. Forgive me Lord, for I now realise that I have been relying on myself for all I need instead of trusting my life into Your hands.

Lord, I see now that I have been feeding my old sin nature, instead of allowing my new life in Christ to grow and flourish.

Lord, I live in this mortal body and have a fallible mind, but I desire in Your strength, to be clothed in humility and grace. I now see that the strength to do this only comes from You, and not as I thought, from me trying to act humbly in front of other people. Change me Lord and teach me to submit to Your working in my life.

Help me I pray, to clothe myself in humility and truth, by allowing the Holy Spirit to work in me so deeply, that people will start to see Jesus in my life, and not the old prideful person I used to be. I ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.
