A Father God & Holy Spirit Submission Prayer (7.27.15)

Faith Believers, 
Before you begin anything - a new job, a journey, a new endeavor; 
and especially before you being your day each morning,
ask GOD for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit on your life.
   - Love, Marilyn

Lord Jesus Christ, it is in Your mighty Name that I pray.

Father God,
Your Word says that a patient man is better than a warrior, and one who controls his temper, than one who takes a city. You have admonished me in Your Word to control my body - my appetites and behavior - in a way that is holy and honorable to You. 

But I confess, Father, that sometimes I fall short of this, in many areas of my life; and I ask that You strengthen me by Your Spirit, so that I might not let sin reign in my body or give in to evil desires (Pause and ask the Holy Spirit to reveal those areas of your life that are not yet submitted to Him.)

May the fruit of self-control continually increase in my life, so that this godly characteristic may be evident in the way that I live, in my words and in my actions. May every aspect of who I am, and how I live, be under the control of the Holy Spirit. 

Father God, I submit to You now in Jesus’ name.

Father God, Empower me to keep a tight rein on my tongue. May I be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry; knowing that anger does not bring about the righteous life that You desire. May I Bless You and Honor You, Father God with my mouth and my life.

May my life be so controlled by Your Holy Spirit that I truly live and move and have my very being in You alone. Help me this day to not indulge my fleshly nature. Strengthen me to stand firm and be self-controlled in thought, word, and action - that I might be a usable, noble vessel for Your purposes and the glory of Your Great Name, Father God. 

Accomplish this through Christ in me.
For I pray in His name. 

Amen
