We continue looking at developing your devotional life. I like to use written prayers as a springboard to unscripted prayer. The written prayer will give you seed thoughts to pray from your heart whatever you desire to say to the Lord. Today, I offer you a prayer I wrote on surrendering every day to the Lord Jesus Christ:
Prayer of Surrender
Blessed are You Holy God
I now give my all to You,
My body, soul, and mind together as one without division;
I give my time, talents, and family all to You.
I give my past, present, and future
All to You for guidance, forgiveness and safekeeping.
Whatever occurs to me today, I will trust in You.
My very life is in Your hands.
I thank You for the Word of God.
You have provided the truth to instruct me how to live for You.
Your ways are perfect.
May I walk in obedience to Your commands and bring Glory to Your Name.
It brings comfort to give my all to such a great God;
You are love.
Yet, Your love for me remains a mystery.
May I show my love for You by studying and obeying the Bible.
Into Your Hands I commit my all
That Your name may be glorified.
Blessed be the Lord Jesus Christ.
In Your name I pray.
Amen and Amen.
