DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For Determination

Dedicated Savior,
Although you faced opposition and obstacles from both your enemies and those close to you during your life, nothing deterred you from carrying out your goal of securing our salvation. You were resolute. You were determined.

So often, we are not. When we encounter a challenge while trying to accomplish something, we get frustrated and give up. When the goal we set out to achieve is much harder to reach than we anticipated, we change our mind. The support we counted on suddenly isn’t there anymore, and we blame others for when we fail to see something through to the end. Give us your determination and resolve. Make us confident that you are able to reward our perseverance. Help us finish strong, grant us the satisfaction of getting things done, and let our efforts be a blessing to others. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen. 

DAILY PRAYERS FOR GUYS

For the Satisfaction of Projects Done Well

Loving Lord,
While the work required to carry out assignments or projects can feel frustrating and futile at times, there is a sense of satisfaction in bringing something to completion and finishing well. Thank you for the skills and abilities you give us to be able to take on such tasks, and the determination to see them through. While our intent behind such efforts is not to seek the approval of others, we nevertheless enjoy it when others acknowledge our work or take the time to express their appreciation. Thank you for those who do. Lead us always to give our full effort regardless, as if whatever we’re working on, we’re doing so for you. As we look back on the things we’ve accomplished, give us a healthy pride, not based on how others respond to what we’ve done, but based on knowing we gave it – and you – our best. 

In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
