Prayer For Life
Thank You, Lord, that at Calvary's cross we were saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, for the forgiveness of our sins. And thank You Father that because of His glorious resurrection we too have been given a new life in Christ, the fullness of His life in ours, the abundant life of Christ within, the hope of glory.
Thank You that the sting of death was removed forever when Christ rose from the dead and because He lives, we too will live with Him in heaven eternally. Thank You, that the power of Satan was thwarted fully, finally and once for all, and that in Him I have the resurrected life of Christ as my portion.
Help me I pray, to live that resurrected life in Christ. Keep me from walking according to the course of this world, but in spirit and truth, may I yield my life to the guidance of the Holy Spirit and present my body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable unto You.
Thank You, Father, that I have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear, but have received Your Spirit of adoption, whereby I can call You Abba, Father. Thank You, that although I was once far away from You, I have been brought near by the blood of Christ Jesus and received this glorious gift of Salvation. I pray that in His power, I may live the resurrected life in spirit and in truth, to Your praise and glory. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Father, we live in a world that is tainted by sin and a world that is becoming more and more evil, but I thank You that I have been made a new creation in Christ, and have been given a new life in Him.
I thank You that despite the difficulties I face in this God-rejecting sinful world, that my inner man is being renewed day by day, by the power of Your indwelling Holy Spirit.
I praise and thank You that although this mortal body is perishing and will one day die, that in Christ I have been given eternal life and am enabled to mount up with eagles wings and overcome all difficulties through His sufficient strength.
Keep me from being conformed to the pattern of this world, and help me to live in newness of life until my life's end. I pray that I may be transformed by the renewing of my mind and enabled to test and approve what God's good, pleasing and perfect will is, in all I say and do. To Him be all praise and glory.
Amen.
How I praise Your name, knowing that in You is life and light, and that I have been given the free gift of eternal life, in Christ Jesus my Lord. Lord, I know that there is nothing in me that merits this precious gift of grace, which is mine simply by faith in the Lord Jesus, but You certainly deserve my everlasting worship, praise and thanksgiving, for You alone are worthy.
Lord, I know that as Your child I have been called to be in the world, but not to be a part of the world and that I am called to live by faith and not by sight. To simply trust Your Word, for Your word is truth. I pray that I may wholly consecrate my life to You, spirit, soul and body, and give You the honour due to Your holy name.
Search my heart Lord I pray, and identify in me any areas of carelessness, pride, selfishness, indifference or wrong thinking that need to be corrected. Give me a proper spirit of humility I pray, and lead me in the paths of righteousness in utter dependence upon You all the days of my life. This I ask in Jesus' name,
Amen.
Dear Father, You are my fortress and my dwelling place in Whom I find rest and contentment. Before the mountains were brought forth or the earth was formed, You were and are and always will be the eternal I Am, from everlasting to everlasting, for there is no God like unto You. Your wisdom is unsurpassed and Your lovingkindness is new every morning.
What is man that You are mindful of him when a thousand ages in Your sight is but a day in Your economy, for the span of our lives is swept away in a moment in time and passes quickly away like the morning dew. And yet You have put eternity into the heart of man and breathed Your own life-breath into our spirit.
Praise Your name for we are fearfully and wonderfully made and every day of our lives is scheduled by You and recorded in Your book of remembrances. You know my very thoughts and search out the paths I take and all my ways are known to You.
Help me to live as unto You, and to do only those things that are pleasing in Your sight. May I run the race of life set before me and keep my eyes on Jesus moment by moment, so that I may fulfil Your will for my life to Your praise and glory. This I ask in the name of the Lord Jesus,
Amen.
Thank You, Father, that Christ is the good Shepherd of the sheep and that in Him we have life and we have it in great abundance.
Thank You, that the Lord Jesus gave His life so that through Him, we might have newness of life and fullness of life, and thank You that He is the One that cares for each of His own and that there is nothing that can snatch us out of His hand.
I thank You that no matter what difficulties or dangers I face, the life I have in Christ is a superabundant life, with eternal consequences.
Thank You, that only in Christ does my earthly life have true meaning and I pray that the life that I now live in this body of flesh may be lived by faith in the Son of God, Who loved me and gave Himself for me. I pray that this life may be honouring to You, in thought word and deed. In Jesus' name I pray,
Amen.
Father and maker of all,
you adorn all creation
with splendor and beauty,
and fashion human lives
in your image and likeness.
Awaken in every heart
reverence for the work of your hands,
and renew among your people
a readiness to nurture and sustain
your precious gift of life.
Grant this through our Lord
Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in
the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God forever and ever.
Amen
