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 Faithful Follow Through

As another week begins, there are always tasks to accomplish and to-do lists to check off. Whether big or small, it can often be a challenge to follow through with my responsibilities and commitments. When my thoughts gravitate toward procrastination, replace them with the drive to get things done. Help me finish what I start and not start things I can’t finish. Keep me from spinning a narrative in my own head that attempts to excuse or soften my lack of follow through. Instead, let me be honest and real with myself regarding what I can and cannot take on and accomplish. Make me disciplined in what matters most, especially anything that fosters my spiritual growth. Give me the dedication of Jesus, which he demonstrated when he resolutely followed through with every detail necessary for my salvation. 

In his name I pray. Amen.
