TRANSFORMATION PRAYER
DEAR FATHER,
IN TIMES OF DOUBT PLEASE REMIND US THAT YOU, who began a good work in US will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. HELP US TO WALK WITH YOU BY BELIEVING THROUGH WORSHIP, BELONGING THROUGH FELLOWSHIP, AND BECOMING THROUGH DISCIPLESHIP. PLEASE HELP US TO BECOME A LITTLE MORE LIKE YOU EVERY DAY. HELP US to live the new life, in which WE are being made new and are becoming like YOU, the One who made US. LET THIS new life bring US INTO the true knowledge of YOU THE EVERLASTING God. PLEASE LET OUR RIGHTEOUS WAY OF LIVING transfigures US much like the Messiah, LET OUR our lives gradually become brighter and more beautiful as YOU enter our lives and we become like YOU. PLEASE HELP US TO UNLEARN BAD HABITS AND TO REMOVE DEEPLY ROOTED ISSUES. LET US TAKE OFF OUR OLD SELVES AND PUT ON THE NEW SELF. MANY TIMES WE ARE AFRAID TO HUMBLY FACE THE TRUTH ABOUT OURSELVES BUT THE TRUTH WILL SET US FREE. PLEASE GIVE US HUMBLE AND TEACHABLE ATTITUDES SO THAT WE CAN BEGIN TO GROW. GROWTH IS OFTEN PAINFUL AND SCARY. THERE’S NO GROWTH WITHOUT CHANGE, THERE’S NO CHANGE WITHOUT FEAR OF LOSS, AND THERE’S NO LOSS WITHOUT PAIN. EVERY CHANGE INVOLVES A LOSS OF SOME KIND: PLEASE MAKE US READY AND WILLING TO LET GO OF OUR OLD WAYS IN ORDER TO EXPERIENCE THE NEW.
HELP US TO DEVELOP CHRISTLIKE HABITS BY PRACTICING THEM. LET US Practice these things AND immerse ourselves in them, so that all may see our progress.PLEASE REMIND US THAT GREAT SOULS ARE GROWN THROUGH STRUGGLES AND STORMS AND SEASONS OF SUFFERING WHEN WE NEED IT, AND HELP US TO BE PATIENT WITH THE PROCESS. I PRAY THAT WE WON’T try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so THAT WE become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way. LET US REMEMBER THAT THE RESULTS YOU plan FOR US won’t happen right away. Slowly, steadily, surely, the time approaches when the vision will be fulfilled. If it seems slow, LET US not despair, for these things will surely come to pass. GIVE US PATIENCE FATHER AND LET US TRUST THAT They will not be overdue a single day!
IN JESUS NAME AMEN.
