Prayer For Change
God is the source of all things. He is capable and ready to help you with the things that weigh you down.
We created this list to give you some quick prayers you could say to help you turn to God for true strength and love in your pursuit of changed behavior, because prayer for change can only help aid you on your journey!
These prayers are prayers of thanksgiving, worship, and request. We hope this helps you tune your heart and mind towards God and His infinite source of strength, power, and love.
1.
Lord, help me to turn to You for change. As I begin to change my behavior, I ask that You help me think about this through Your eyes and Your love. Help me to process my thoughts and desires. Also, please help me to turn to You. Help me, awaken me, to Your presence and depth of love. Amen.
2.
Lord, thank you for this opportunity to turn to you in my weakness. God, by doing so I know that true strength happens. Please, help me to rest in this knowledge as I journey with you on this road of change through your power, grace, and love. Amen.
3.
God, before I give anything up or change my behavior, help me to truly rest in You and find my guidance through You. This is tough for me because waiting on You is not how the world operates. But it is how I want to live – because I know You know what is best for me. Help me to trust that and live in that! Amen.
4.
Lord, as I prepare my heart and mind for changing my behavior, I ask that your divine will be clear to me. Help me to make this change, a Holy change as I look to You for all of my strength and guidance. Allow your way of life rule in my thoughts and actions. Thank you for being there for me in this! Amen.
5.
God, You are always there for me calming my storms. Help me to trust You. Help me to see how You are in control of all and help me remember who You are. I get scared so easily, Lord, and I forget who You are. Help me to remember, even when I am scared, Your loving presence and unbelievable power. I thank you for this, Amen.

Almighty God, thank you for never stopping believing in me. Sometimes, it’s hard to grasp how much You love me, care for me and want my life to be better.

7.
Holy God, The Creator of all things, thank you for making me and this beautiful world I live in. Thank you for walking with me, for saving me and for making my life better.

God, I ask that your wisdom directs me in my quest for change. Help me to feel confident in your direction. Make your voice recognizable and your way clear. Help me to have no doubt or confusion. Amen.

God, sometimes following you is really scary. It’s scary because I really don’t know the magnitude of Your strength and love. Help me to trust You and see that You really do love me just as I am. Help me to feel no shame, but rather grace and help me to go where You lead me. Amen.
10.
God, the journey I am on is not an easy one. Changing behavior is always a hard thing. Help me to have grace and love on myself, even when I stumble or fall. Lord, help me to see myself the way You see me and that is full of love. Amen.

Nor am I stepping into an unsafe place, I am going where You guide and where You are. Help me to trust in You even when I feel unsure or scared. Thank you for being there for me in this way, Amen.
15.
Jesus, thank you for your ministry on this Earth. Thank you for coming and emptying yourself so you could be like me. You understand me so well because You know personally what this world is like. What’s remarkable is that You know how tough this world is and how cruel people can be and yet, you still came and healed. Help me to walk like you, even when I feel like the world is tough. Give me the strength to take on your way and rest in You. Amen.

Jesus, my breath is taken away at your tenderness, mercy, and compassion. Oh, how You love those who seek You out! Lord, I am seeking You out, help me in my endeavors.

I love you and thank you for You. Amen.
20.
God, it’s shocking to think, for even a moment, about all the things that you do which I have no clue about. You are so much bigger than I could ever imagine, yet in that grandeur, You are not too big to meet me where I am. Thank you for that! Thank you that You are a compassionate, loving God. A God who is deeply interested in His creation. Amen.
