Prayer for the Working

by | Jun 8, 1998 | Prayer

“Lord Jesus, as I enter this work place, I bring your presence with me. I speak Your peace, Your grace, and Your perfect order into the atmosphere of this office.

I acknowledge Your Lordship over all that will be spoken, thought, decided, and accomplished within these walls. Lord Jesus, I thank You for the gifts you have deposited in me.

I do not take them lightly but commit to using them responsibly and well. Give me a fresh supply of truth and beauty on which to draw as I do my job.

Anoint my creativity, my ideas, my energy, so that even my smallest task may bring You honour. Lord, when I am confused, guide me. When I am weary, energize me Lord, when I am burned out, infuse me with the light of the Holy Spirit.

May the work that I do and the way I do it, bring hope, life, and courage to all I come in contact with today. And, Oh Lord, even in this day’s most stressful moments, may I rest in You.

In the mighty Name that is above all Names, in the Matchless Name of my Lord and Saviour Jesus, I pray, Amen
