If you would like to receive Jesus, pray this with me: Lord Jesus, I admit that I have sinned and need your mercy. I turn from my sin and trust that you died for me and rose again. Forgive me, lead me, and make me yours. I confess you as Lord and ask you to guide my life with your light. Amen.

Follow Me With Your Light

Lord, revive your Church with fresh wonder. Where we have grown dull to your leading, open our eyes again; where we have lost our joy, fill us with gladness. Make us quick to notice your light, quick to obey, and eager to rejoice in you, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Wake Up Your Church to Rejoice

Thank God for times he has made his direction clear and filled your heart with joy. Give thanks for the signs of his care and for every moment when hope has been renewed.

Grateful for Your Guidance

Pray by naming one decision or season where you need direction, ask God to make his leading clear, and ask him to give you joy when you recognize his care.

Pray for Clear Direction

Pray for someone who is searching for direction, that God would help them notice his help, trust his leading, and rejoice when they see his care.

For People Still Seeking

Lord, train my heart to notice your leading quickly and to respond with gladness. Keep me from missing the signs of your care, and teach me to trust you when the path is still unfolding, in the name of Jesus. Amen.

A Heart Ready to Rejoice
