For the Gift of Faith
Holy Spirit,
Thank you for the gift of faith – it is truly a one of a kind gift! Faith not only receives the promise of forgiveness and the assurance of my salvation, but every other spiritual gift which flows from these as well. You opened my blind eyes to see the peace I have in Jesus and raised my spiritually dead body to live my new life of joyful service in your kingdom. Thank you!
Since you not only grant this gift of faith by your grace, but also sustain it and strengthen it through the living water of your Word, lead me to maximize my faith by drinking deeply from that well. Fan my faith into flame, allowing me to shine outwardly and burn inwardly with a passionate fire that yearns to see others come to faith and grow in their faith. All of this is possible only through your work, mighty Spirit, so pour out your gifts on your people and extend Christ’s Kingdom through your limitless grace!
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
