Once again, Lord
Lord, here I am once again. In the same place, with the same prayer, only time has gone by. I need Your help to overcome this battle. Right now, Lord, my body has full control of my decisions and choices. The will to do right has even weakened into a state of confusion. Somewhere, deep within, I know the right way to walk, making the right decisions of what goes into my mouth and what does not, if to exercise or not, when to eat or not, yet, somehow, at the moment of choice, I choose what is simple, quick and tastiest. Always resulting in wrong choices, large portions and weight gain for all to see.
So, Lord, today I simpy ask you to HELP me make the right decisions. I ask you to inhabit the part of my soul that chooses right from wrong. I surrender my WILL to you. Not my will but YOURS be done TODAY, Lord! Without Your help, I will do today what I have done for the past 2 months. Please Lord, hear this prayer and skip across the mountaintops to rescue me from my pitiful self!
I thank you, Lord, that it is already done! I know this b/c I know that Your divine will for me is health, self-control and righteous living (doing what is right). I thank you that tomorrow morning I WILL have a praise report of the GREAT day you have given me today!!!
In Jesus’ Name,
Amen!

Wow! What an amazing prayer. I am going to use it for my own today. . . believe me - I could have written this - it sounds SO familiar. Thanks for the reminder to ask God for help in this. Even though I know it is important, I often forget to ask for such specific things.

Thank you Michelle for sharing this prayer with us. Thanks too for reminding me that I don’t have to do this alone.
