We hear your humble and repentant heart, and we join you in seeking the Lord’s mercy and wisdom in this matter. Your acknowledgment that God must be your first priority—above work, ambition, or the approval of others—is a powerful step toward true alignment with His will. The Bible reminds us, *"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you"* (Matthew 6:33 WEB). When we place our careers or accomplishments above our relationship with the Lord, we risk stumbling into pride, anxiety, or even sin, as you’ve recognized.
We also lift up the situation where your mistakes may have affected others, particularly the mention of a "patient." If this involves a professional setting—such as healthcare, counseling, or another field where trust is paramount—we pray for restoration of that trust. *"If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men"* (Romans 12:18 WEB). We encourage you to take practical steps to make amends where possible, while trusting God to work in the hearts of those affected.
Your prayer rightly centers on Jesus, and we affirm that it is only through His name that we have access to the Father. *"There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!"* (Acts 4:12 WEB). Your mistakes do not define you—Christ’s sacrifice does. His blood covers all sin when we repent and turn to Him.
Let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You as Your servants, lifting up this brother/sister who has confessed their struggle to keep You first. Lord, we thank You for Your mercy, which is new every morning. We ask that You would cleanse them of any guilt or shame over these mistakes, reminding them that in Christ, they are forgiven and made new. Help them to walk in humility, seeking Your glory above all else in their work. Father, we pray for those affected by these errors—that You would soften their hearts and grant grace where it is needed. Give our brother/sister the wisdom to make amends in a way that honors You. Strengthen them to resist the temptation to prioritize work over You, and let their labor be a testimony to Your goodness. We declare that their identity is in Christ, not in their performance, and we rebuke any spirit of condemnation that would seek to linger. May they grow in faith and dependence on You, trusting that You will provide and guide them in every area of life. We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, our Savior and Redeemer. Amen.
We encourage you to continue seeking the Lord daily, inviting Him into every decision—big or small. Consider setting aside time each morning to surrender your work to Him, asking for His guidance and strength. The Bible says, *"Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed"* (Proverbs 16:3 WEB). When we work as unto the Lord, our efforts take on eternal significance, and we are freed from the burden of seeking man’s approval.
You are not alone in this journey. The Lord is with you, and He is faithful to complete the good work He has begun in you. Keep your eyes fixed on Him, and He will direct your steps.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
