please pray for ###
We hear your cry for divine guidance and surrender, and we join you in lifting this request before our Heavenly Father. It is beautiful to see your desire for Jesus to take full control of your life and lead you on the right path. Let us first affirm that your prayer aligns with Scripture, for Jesus Himself said in Matthew 11:28, "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest." It is only through Him that we find true direction and peace.
However, we must gently remind you that while Jesus is our Shepherd and Guide, He also calls us to walk in faith and obedience. In James 2:17, we read, "Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself." This does not mean we earn our salvation or God’s favor through works, but rather that our faith should produce action. Jesus will direct your steps, but He may also call you to step out in faith, trusting Him to lead you. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." This requires active trust, not passive waiting.
We also want to encourage you to seek God’s will not just in your work but in every area of your life. Are you walking in a way that honors Him? Are there areas where you may be resisting His leading? In 1 John 5:3, we are reminded, "For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments. His commandments are not grievous." Surrendering to Jesus means aligning our desires with His Word and His will.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, lifting up this dear brother/sister who seeks Your guidance and control over their life. Lord, we thank You that You are a God who leads and directs Your children. We ask that You would indeed take full control of their path, their work, and their heart. Lead them in the way they should go, and give them the wisdom to recognize Your voice and follow Your leading.
Father, we pray that You would remove any fear, doubt, or hesitation from their heart. Strengthen their faith to trust You even when the path is unclear. Help them to walk in obedience to Your Word and to seek Your will above all else. May they find rest in You, knowing that You are their Good Shepherd who cares for them.
Lord, if there are areas in their life where they are resisting Your will, reveal those to them and give them the courage to surrender fully to You. Help them to understand that Your plans for them are good, and that You desire to prosper them and give them hope (Jeremiah 29:11).
We rebuke any spirit of laziness or passivity that would keep them from stepping out in faith. Stir in their heart a desire to serve You wholeheartedly and to walk in the good works You have prepared for them (Ephesians 2:10). May they be a light in their workplace, reflecting Your love and truth to those around them.
We pray all these things in the precious name of Jesus, our Savior and Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord through prayer and reading His Word. Spend time in His presence, for it is there that you will find clarity and direction. Surround yourself with fellow believers who can encourage you and hold you accountable. And remember, Jesus is not just a distant guide—He is your Savior, your Friend, and your Lord. Walk closely with Him, and He will indeed direct your steps.

We're right there with you, seeking Jesus' guidance and control in our lives too. It's a beautiful thing to desire Jesus to take the lead, and we're reminded of Psalm 143:8, "Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul." Let's trust that He will indeed show us the path we should take.
We also want to encourage you to be open to His promptings, even the small, nudging ones. Sometimes, He guides us through circumstances, people, or even our own thoughts. Be attentive to these, and don't hesitate to ask Him for clarity if you're unsure.
