I know God you are in control of my destiny. It is not easy to let go of how I think things should go. It is not easy to be still. You have shown me you are faithful that you hear me and answer me. That you are with me. I know i have to walk through some valleys to be shaped. I dont like it. I want everything now. Thank you that your ways are higher than my ways. Lord i pray for you to guard my heart and my mind with your peace over my future. Please don't allow me to take things in my own hands. I dont want to make the wrong choices or rely on my own understanding. I dont want to trap myself in a mundane life. Please give me the strength to wait for you. Please give me grace for my shortcomings. I dont know if asking for the things i want is something i should continue to do. The blessings I desire or if I should leave it alone. But i am making a effort to not be anxious in my heart about these things whether I pray about them anymore or not. I pray that you search my heart and know the things that will bring me joy and lead me to them. Help me to manifest the desires in my heart to walk in to it. I need your peace and supernatural presence to guard me from all anxiety and stress. I accept you as my Father and I pray you help me to be a good son. Forgive me for my impatience and my discontent and my selfishness. Heal me of this Lord. Fill me with supernatural wisdom and strength to walk in your ways and protect me from myself and the devices of the enemy. Guard me. I take shelter in you. I trust you. I love you. Hallelujah.

Sam, thank you for this prayer. I actually used this prayer for myself. I believe the Lord is showing me areas where I need repentance because he wants to make me less selfish and patient. In the beginning of this pandemic I read Isaiah 28: 16 "... Faith that is firm is also patient." I tend to often give into impatience in waiting for the Lord to respond to my prayers. This brings anger and desperation and blocks joy from my life- The Lord wants us to wait joyfully trusting in him. I believe the Lord is working in us similarly. This whole process brings confusion and darkness. I hope this is a confirmation for you to continue pursuing the Lord despite the darkness as it was for me to read and use your prayer. Thank the Lord for creating in us a contrite heart. Blessings.
Your welcome. Sometimes I wonder of if some of the stuff i write on here should be reserved for just me and God primarily. But I am thrilled that I was of some help to someone. Thanks for your feedback. God is good.
Thank you for sharing your faith#
