John 15:5, Romans 14:17

In light of all that You are, father, as You have taught us I now pray that Your kingdom would come and Your will would be done on earth as it is in heaven. today I come to ask for Your divine intervention in my life and the affairs of my life. I know that I am powerless apart from You. apart from Your interven-tion my life is unmanageable, unproductive, frustrating, and cha-otic. apart from You, I am a mess. But I believe Your power can bring sanity, power, and effectiveness to my life. I turn my will over to You today and ask that Your will would be done in my life.

I pray that Your kingdom would come on my life today. I choose to relinquish myself to Your lordship, depend upon Your empowering, and abide in You today. make my life pleasing to You today. Help me connect with You at an experiential level today. Enable me to discern Your will for me. Work in me to develop spiritual maturity and transform the defects of my char-acter.

I pray for Your blessing today, father. I ask that You would develop my character in such a way that You can prosper and empower my life without my taking advantage of Your good-ness for my own ends. I ask for the kingdom realities of righ-teousness, peace, and joy in the spirit to be real in my life today.

make me an object of Your special favor. let me be the apple of Your eye. love on me. thank You, dad. I like You a lot.
