Father, thank You for Your faithfulness and provision. Help me focus on You, as You meet all my needs through Christ. Grant me wisdom to manage Your gifts and reveal Your desires for me. Guide my steps in faith, show me where to wait, and what to avoid. Strengthen me through Your Spirit to fulfill Your will. Everything I have is Yours.
You are God, and I am not. Please help me humble myself before Your majestic glory. Lead me to my own Garden of Gethsemane moment, where I fully surrender and declare from a heart wholly Yours, 'Not my will, but Yours be done.' I do not wish to live by formulas, common sense, what seems right to humans, in a way others can replicate, a life explainable without You, or by worldly wisdom like those without Jesus.

I aspire to live a supernatural life that doesn't rely on my own wisdom, power, or wealth. Without You, I will never have sufficient time, knowledge, wisdom, understanding, money, connections, energy, or anything else necessary to glorify Your name, build Your Kingdom, and fulfill Your will. May I never tell others, 'Look what I've accomplished with God's help.' Instead, let me only boast that this is the Lord's work, and it is marvelous in our eyes. May I never claim Your glory or attempt to take Your praise, for You alone are deserving of it all.
Fill me anew and abundantly with Your Holy Spirit. Would You accomplish in, through, and with my life what only You can achieve? To the extent that I am left speechless, amazed, and in awe of You. I do not seek a place in human religious programs but desire to fulfill the role You have for me in Your Kingdom's plan. Help me to faithfully follow Jesus wherever He guides me, so that there is nowhere else I would rather be than in the center of Your will.

I apologize for letting places, roles, others' opinions, my emotions, and finances divert my focus from You. Ultimately, what truly matters is where You desire me to be, what You want me to do, and whom You have called me to connect with, collaborate with, and share Your gospel with. I'm sorry, Lord, for turning it into something it shouldn't be when it's truly all about Jesus.

Release me from the tendency to seek approval from others and lead me to a place where I am motivated by reverence for You. Help me to hold You in awe, respect the authorities You have placed in my life, and love my fellow believers in Christ. You are the highest authority, and I am accountable to You for my life. My ultimate loyalty belongs to You alone. My future is not determined by anyone else. My life and its moments are in Your hands. Just as Jesus was determined to go to Jerusalem where the cross awaited, help me to stay focused on fulfilling Your will. As You sent Jesus, He now sends me. Amen!
