A Prayer About Success


Holy Father in Heaven, every time we come before thy throne, we are reminded of our weakness and Thy great power. Each time we stand before Thy people to preach the Word, we are reminded of our flaws and Thy faithfulness. Dear God, whenever we seek to minister to others, we see our inadequacies and Thy perfection.

Father, we pray that You will bless Your men who preach tomorrow. Please help us remember that numbers do not measure success, crowd response does not measure success, confidence in our abilities does not measure success, and success is not measured by how good we feel about the sermon.

May we never forget that we are successful when we obey Your Will and Your Word. Help us be aware that if we preach the truth in love, You are pleased. Therefore, help all of Your men who preach tomorrow, seek to please You alone. With this in mind, dear God, we pray that these men will rest well tonight, and arise in the morning with hearts that are on fire for You.

In Jesus Name we Pray, AMEN.
