A Prayer for Today: August 6, 2008

Jesus,

I am confident that you are sitting at the right hand of our Father, interceding for each of us. Thank you for loving each of us deeply and for forgiving our shortcomings and sins.

Lord, I ask that you inspire each of us and impart the desire into our hearts to seek the lost. Help us to look outside of our own needs this week and look outward at a lost and dying world. Soften our hearts toward the lost souls. Give us words that will present Jesus to them in a way of interest to them. Help our lives to shine brightly before them. Convict our spirits when we do or say anything that might be perceived as being hypocritical.

Let each of our lives reap a great harvest of the fruits of the spirit. Through love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness and faithfulness we will lead others to You. In all truthfulness much of what else we do with our lives has little value when compared to our orders to go and make disciples of the world.

I ask a special healing touch for those of us who are suffering. See our faith, Lord and allow healing to manifest in our bodies.

You are mighty and worthy to be praised. Our Help is in the Name of the Lord.

Amen.
