My Prayer.

 My Prayer

A Personal Cry from the Depths of the Heart

Lord, You have heard my every whisper, seen my every tear.

Now I gather all my longings and lay them before You here.

My Prayer for Forgiveness

I have sinned and fallen short of Your glory—this I know too well.

My best attempts are tattered rags, my righteousness a shell.

But I confess, and I believe: Your blood still speaks for me.

Wash me, cleanse me, set me free. (1 John 1:9)

My Prayer for Healing

By Your stripes, I am healed—body, mind, and soul.

Touch my broken places; make my wounded spirit whole.

If the healing comes in lightning, I will shout Your praise.

If it comes as a slow unfolding, still I’ll trust through all my days. (Isaiah 53:5)

My Prayer for Surrender

Not my will, but Yours be done. Not my kingdom, but Your throne.

Take my plans, my fears, my future; make my heart Your home.

I lay my life upon the altar—living sacrifice.

Have Your way, Lord; I release my grip on every vice. (Romans 12:1)

My Prayer for Protection

Cover me beneath Your wings; hide me in Your side.

Guard my going out and coming in; be my faithful guide.

When the enemy comes like a flood, lift a standard high.

The name of Jesus is my refuge; I need not fear the night. (Psalm 91:4)

My Prayer for the Holy Spirit

Rushing wind and holy fire, fall upon me now.

Teach me, lead me, fill me, use me—this I humbly vow.

Let Your fruit of love and peace grow rich in all I do.

Come, O Spirit, make me new. (Acts 2:2-4)

My Prayer for Worship

I lift my voice, my hands, my life—a sweet and living song.

Not for praise of men, but for the One to whom I belong.

In spirit and in truth I bow; You alone are worthy, Lord.

Let every breath be hallelujah, every step an act adored. (John 4:24)

My Prayer for Trust

When the valley darkens, when I cannot see the way,

You are still the Shepherd; You will lead me, come what may.

Your goodness and mercy follow me—not just for today,

But all the days of my life, and I will dwell with You for aye. (Psalm 23:6)

My Prayer of Thanks

Thank You, Jesus, for the cross, the empty grave, the open door.

Thank You for the mercy new each morning, evermore.

For the breath I didn’t earn, for the love that never ends—

My prayer is simply this: I am Yours, and You are mine. Amen. (Psalm 118:1)
