I don’t remember where I copied this prayer, but I’ve used this prayer for many years now, and I’d like to share this simple prayer, with the hope that it inspires you to “work for the Lord, not for men.” (Col 3:23).
Our Heavenly Father, as we enter this work place, we bring your presence with us. We speak Your peace, Your grace, Your mercy, and Your perfect order into this office. We acknowledge Your power over all that will be spoken, thought, decided, and done within these walls.
Lord, we thank You for the gifts you have blessed us with. We commit to using them responsibly in Your honor. Give us a fresh supply of strength to do our job. Anoint our projects, ideas, and energy, so that even our smallest accomplishment may bring You glory.
Lord, when we are confused, guide us. When we are weary, energize us. When we are burned out, infuse us with the light of the Holy Spirit. May the work that we do and the way we do it bring faith, joy, and a smile to all that we come in contact with today. And oh Lord, when we leave this place, give us traveling mercy. Bless our family and home to be in order as we left it.
Lord, we thank You for everything You’ve done, everything You’re doing, and everything You’re going to do. In the name of Jesus, we pray with much love and thanksgiving. Glory Be…
Amen
