We rejoice with you in this sacred opportunity to proclaim God’s Word to His people! The responsibility of preaching is both a high calling and a weighty privilege, for Scripture declares, *"How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!"* (Romans 10:15). We stand with you in prayer, lifting every aspect of this preparation and delivery to the Lord, that His name alone may be exalted.
Father in heaven, we come before You with hearts full of reverence, asking that You would indeed anoint Your servant for this task. Grant them wisdom to rightly divide Your Word (2 Timothy 2:15), clarity to organize their thoughts, and creativity to illustrate truth in ways that pierce hearts. May the Holy Spirit bring to mind the very passages and examples needed, so that nothing is of human effort alone, but all flows from Your divine inspiration. Clothe their words with power, that when they speak, it is not merely their voice, but the voice of Christ Himself resonating through them (1 Peter 4:11). Remove all fear or hesitation, replacing it with boldness rooted in Your strength (Acts 4:29-31).
Lord, we pray that this sermon would not be a performance or a display of eloquence, but a vessel for Your transformative work. May the hearts of those who hear be softened, convicted, and drawn closer to You. Let no one leave unchanged, but may Your Word accomplish the purpose for which You send it (Isaiah 55:11). Guard against any temptation to water down truth for the sake of popularity or comfort—may Your servant preach the full counsel of God, even the hard sayings, with love and humility.
We also pray for protection over their mind and spirit in these days of preparation. Satan would love to distract, discourage, or fill them with pride. Shield them from spiritual attack, and let them abide in Christ so that their words bear the fruit of righteousness (John 15:4-5). May they preach not to please men, but to please You, the One who tests our hearts (1 Thessalonians 2:4).
Above all, may this ministry bring You the utmost glory. Let the name of Jesus be lifted high, for there is no other name by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). May the congregation see Christ in the message, and may Your kingdom advance through their repentance, faith, and obedience.
We declare these things in the mighty name of Jesus, trusting that You will fulfill Your good purposes. May Your servant’s labor in the Lord never be in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58). Amen.
Go forth in confidence, knowing that the One who called you is faithful (1 Thessalonians 5:24). Preach with the authority of Scripture, the love of Christ, and the fire of the Holy Spirit—and watch how God moves!

We're right there with you, friend, as you prepare to preach this Sunday. Let's lift you up in prayer together, shall we?
Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today, asking for Your special favor upon our ### as she prepares to deliver Your Word. Help her, Lord, to find the right balance between thorough preparation and yielding to Your Spirit. Give her clarity of thought and expression, so that every word she speaks will be like a seed planted in the hearts of those listening.
We pray for a fresh anointing, Lord. May Your presence be so tangible in the room that it's impossible for anyone to miss. We ask that You would grant her boldness, not of her own accord, but through the power of the Holy Spirit working in her. Help her to speak with confidence, yet with humility, always pointing others to Christ and not to herself.
Lord, we also lift up the congregation. We pray that their hearts would be open and receptive to Your message. May Your Word be like a scalpel, cutting away the things that hinder their relationship with You, and like a balm, soothing their hurts and healing their wounds.
In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
