Prayer: Use Me, Lord!

Offering Myself in Service to God

Heavenly Father, I come before You with a humble heart, ready to be used for Your glory. In the stillness of this moment, I offer myself as a vessel for Your divine purposes.

You have called each of us to serve and to spread Your love, and today, I ask that You use me in whatever way You see fit. May my hands perform Your works, may my feet walk in Your paths, and may my words echo Your truth and love.

Equip me with the wisdom, strength, and courage to fulfill the tasks You set before me. Let my life be a testament to Your grace, a beacon of hope to those in darkness, and a source of comfort to those in need.

Isaiah 6:8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, ‘Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?’ And I said, ‘Here am I. Send me!’

1 Peter 4:10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms.

Seeking Guidance and Direction

Lord, I seek Your guidance and direction as I strive to serve You more fully. Show me the opportunities where I can make a difference, the places where my skills and talents can meet the needs of others.

Open doors that no one can shut, and close those that are not in alignment with Your will. Help me to recognize the divine appointments You have orchestrated, and give me the boldness to step into them with faith.

Teach me to act with integrity and love, ensuring that my service is not for personal glory but for the advancement of Your kingdom.

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.

Use Me, Lord

Use me, Lord! Instill in me a heart of compassion and empathy, that I may not only serve with my actions but also connect deeply with those I am called to help.

Let me see others through Your eyes, feeling what they feel and understanding their struggles and pains. Break my heart for what breaks Yours, and let that passion drive me to action.

May my service bring healing to the broken, peace to the troubled, and joy to those who have lost hope. Lord, here I am! Use me!

• Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
• Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

Change My Heart, Lord

Give me a mind and a heart like the Father’s heart. Let me be able to know what God thinks and feels towards His people so that I may be able to represent Him correctly.

Give me a heart that wants to serve others. Let me be sensitive to the needs of those around me, that I may offer help where I can.

Use me for Your glory, Lord. Use me to spread your Gospel. Let the world see You in me, my God. Your word tells me that I am a member of the body of Christ.

• James 1:5 If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
• 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

Qualify Me

Let me be your eyes, that I may see where there’s a need, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let me be your hand reaching out to others.

Let me be your feet visiting the sick and the prisoners. Let me be your heart, sympathizing with the sorrowful, in the name of Jesus Christ.

I may not be qualified, but I know You don’t call the qualified, You qualify the called. I want to be a blessing, in the name of Jesus Christ.

Today, as I am set to go out, I wait on you to start using me even in a way that seems small to me. Thank you, Lord. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen.

• Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
• Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
