God of peace, establish us in Christ before You establish us in ministry.
By the power that raised our Lord Jesus from the dead, make us complete and equip us for every good work You have prepared for us.
Jesus, our Great Shepherd, guide our hearts, correct our paths, and teach us to recognize Your voice. Let our confidence rest in the blood of the everlasting covenant—not in our performance, ability, or perfection.
Work within us what is pleasing in Your sight. Form our character before enlarging our influence. Deepen our obedience before increasing our responsibility. Prepare us inwardly so that we may faithfully accomplish Your will outwardly.
May our lives, service, and calling bring glory to Jesus Christ forever and ever.
Amen.“Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight.”HEBREWS 13:21
