Prayers for Every Need: Prayers for Spiritual Needs

Prayers for Every Need: Prayers for Spiritual Needs

“Pray without ceasing,” the apostle Paul said. In prayer, we draw close to God and provide an opening for Him to enter our lives with healing, wisdom and blessing. Please keep in mind that there is a prayer for every need. Even yours.

Prayers for Spiritual Needs

For Salvation

God, you created us for fellowship with you. We are designed to walk with you and delight in your ways.

But every day, we choose not to do that. We choose to go our own way. We put up a sign on our heart: Keep Out. You could just let us wander off. You could see that sign and walk away. But you don’t. You seek after each one of us, and you sent your Son, Jesus, among us to call us back. Back to a full, open and loving relationship with you. Back home. Help us respond to that call.

Help us turn away from ourselves and toward you. We are awestruck at this amazing gift you offer—life with you, forever. It is hard to comprehend such a gift. All we can do is touch it at the edges. But where knowledge fails, faith and love succeed. Give me faith in your saving power. And thank you for the love that rescues me. In the name of your Son, my redeemer, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Behold, I have put before you an open door, which no one can shut. (Revelation 3:8)

For a Stronger Faith

Lord, my faith feels weak. I sometimes doubt you and do things I wish I hadn’t done. But in weakness there is strength, and I thank you for the wonderful truth of what you do for human lives. You give us life, vibrant, exciting, unending life with an enthusiasm that never runs down. Help me to believe that with all my heart. For this I give you thanks. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

I will strengthen the weak. (Ezekiel 34:16)
