Get believing! There's nothing holding you back.
These are the thoughts I've sensed from the Lord. And so I pray.

Today, Lord, I present myself to You.
Here I am - send me, show me, use me, empower me.
Fill my mouth with Your words of life.
Fill my heart with Your Spirit, Your presence.
I entrust all my fears and doubts and misgivings to You.
I do feel it's time to step out, but I do feel pangs of weakness and 'what if this?' or, 'what if that?'
I give You my uncertainties.
I remember that You will always be with me.
That Your strength and help are mine.
That You are my joy inexpressible and fullness of glory.
That You draw me in Your love - that You are inside me as a triumphant, mighty warrior who saves.
That You rejoice over me with singing and exultant shouts of joy.
That You are my true Father and Savior who accomplishes all that concerns me.
I lift my days to you. Multiply them for your good pleasure and glory .
Redeem my time for great productivity and increase in Your Holy Spirit enterprises.
Open into me, Lord Jesus, Your meekness and humility, Your raging zeal and tenacious faith, and Your resolute purpose to please our Father.

The breath of Psalm 27 blows gently over much of this prayer.

Let me evermore honor You, and bless my family. I commit them to You for great blessing, for prosperity of soul in all of life.

Place Your Holy Spirit on them and abide with them now and always. Lead them to run swiftly into Your vast love and pure freedom. Invite them into the celebration of union with You. Into the esteemed privilege and rigors of declaring and revealing Jesus - the light and glory of Your own heart - to this desperate world. Flood them in the fullness of Your joy, peace and power.

Lead us each one to realize Your original thoughts about us, to rise to the heights You've always desired and intented for us.

Looking to You, Gratefully.
