Prayer For My Coworkers

Heavenly Father, thank You for this new day and for the opportunities and challenges that will inevitably come my way. Lord, I pray that You would be with me in all I say and do, and help me to be a light shining in a dark place, where the Lord Jesus is seen in me.

Keep my mind alert and give me wisdom to know when to speak and when to remain silent. Guard the choices I make and may I rely on the gentle promptings of the Holy Spirit, for Lord I know that You know the best plan for my life and I trust You to carry it out to its completion.

I ask Your special blessing on each of my work colleagues, and if an opportunity arises to witness about the truth of Scripture, help me to be ready to speak, slow to anger and able to share the truth of the gospel of grace, willing and ready to give an answer for the faith I have in You. Be my guard and guide in all things and may today be a day when You are glorified in my life. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.


Dear Lord, thank You for placing me in this particular position in my work and for the colleagues that you have seen fit to put alongside me. I pray that in all things, my life and my work will be a witness of Your grace and that I may honour You in the workplace, in all that I say and do. I pray that by Your grace, my work may be carried out efficiently, effectively and thoroughly, and I pray that in all things I may act wisely and fairly so that the name of Christ Jesus is not dishonoured by me.

Thank You for the gifts and abilities that You have given me and for the opportunity I have had to gain additional qualification and knowledge, which I may use to serve my employers better. I pray that all I do, in word and deed, may be pleasing to You O Lord, and of benefit to those with whom I work. I pray that You would underscore and oversee the many projects with which I am engaged, and may I demonstrate to others a life that is led and guided by the Holy Spirit of God.

Grant me a happy and gracious disposition in my work, and give me I pray, the wisdom I need for every decision I make. May the light and love of the Lord Jesus shine through me so that all with whom I come in contact today, desire to know the One in whom I have believed. May all I do be done faithfully and joyfully, and may I value all those who cross my path today. I ask this in the name of Jesus,

Amen.


Dear Lord, I lift up my hands and heart to You this morning as I start to prepare myself for another day at work. I ask You to lead and guide me in all I say and do, and by Your grace, may I bring glory to Your name throughout this day. Look down I pray, with grace and mercy on every one of my work colleagues as they travel to and from work and as we spend the day working alongside each other, in our various tasks and duties.

Lord, I bring each one of my colleagues to You this morning, thanking You for the life of each one and the part that they play in our work together. Thank You also, for those who have made a commitment to You as their Saviour and I pray that together, we may demonstrate the love of the Lord Jesus as we carry out our daily tasks together.

Lord, I particularly lift those of my work colleagues who have not yet accepted the Lord Jesus as their Saviour and plead Your pity and mercy over them. Lord, I know that it is not Your will that anyone should perish but that all come to a trusting faith in Jesus, and Lord, I am praying that Your will be done in each and every life. Convict every one of their need of salvation, Lord. Please give me wisdom to know when to say something about You and when to remain quiet. Bless this day and all with whom I share it, and may Your will be done in my life, from this day forward and for evermore. In Jesus' name I pray,

Amen.


Majesty, the fruits of the Spirit are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Fill my co-workers and I with Your Spirit so that the workplace can be a fruitful and God-filled environment. I pray that we adopt these fruits in our hearts so that we leave no room for the works of the flesh which will prevent us from inheriting Your Kingdom. Let us not become conceited, provoking one another or envying one another. Amen.


Dear Father who dwells in the high places, I pray for unity among my co-workers. I ask that as we work together, as a diverse community, You will be with us and keep us united. Your Word states that two are better than one because they have a good reward for their labor. Lord help us stand together because the reward for the work that we do shall be greater together than alone. Amen.


Heavenly Father, Your word says that we will eat the fruit of our labor, blessings and prosperity will be ours. I pray for my co-workers right now; I pray that they work hard so that when they reap what they have sown it will be of great reward. Let them not become lazy in doing the work required, instead, I pray for an increase in strength and motivation so that they may excel in all that they do and in all that they receive. Amen.


Precious Savior, thank You for Your Word that offers wisdom in times of trouble and uncertainty. Your Word states that if my brother sins against me, I should go and tell him his fault, between me and him alone. If he listens to me, then I have gained my brother. I pray that my co-workers and I, communicate in a way that diminishes drama and tension. I also pray that we treat one another with respect at all times. Amen.


God of Love, Your word tells me that if possible, so far as it depends on me, I should live peaceably with all. O Lord, help to keep the peace in my workplace and extend a Godly love to my co-workers. I thank You in advance for the many relationships (within my workplace) that will be founded upon Your love and peace. I pray that You guide my heart and the hearts of those that I work with. Amen.
