To Supply What Is Lacking in My Faith
Sanctifying Spirit,
Though faith as small as a mustard seed is sufficient to cling to the work of Jesus for salvation, do not let me be content with a seed-size faith. Rather, provide for me what is lacking in my faith. Where my faith lacks knowledge, provide it through your Word. When my faith doubts and wavers, steady it with the rock-solid certainty of your promises that never fail. When I am reluctant to put my faith into action, place me in situations where I cannot help but do so. While it isn’t the size of my faith that saves, but the object – Jesus – I nevertheless pray for you to continue fanning into flame this gift of faith, so that I may be more deeply rooted in you and never shaken loose by Satan or sin.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
