Here is a prayer for those who wish to draw nearer to Father, God. This is not a prayer for salvation or of forgiveness of sins, but simply a prayer that I wrote directly from a series of scriptures, that I pray whenever I want to get closer to Him. Use this prayer before you open scripture, before you begin your daily devotion, at the start of your fast, or just to increases your overall intimacy and knowledge of Him.

FULL PRAYER:
LORD, GOD IN HEAVEN, I ASK THAT YOU REMOVE FROM WITHIN ME THE THINGS WHICH CAUSE RESISTANCE TO ME RECEIVING YOUR LOVE. REMOVE FROM ME THOSE THINGS THAT PREVENT ME FROM SEEING YOUR KINGDOM ON THE EARTH. REMOVE WHAT CAUSES RESISTANCE TO ME MANIFESTING YOUR AUTHORITY AND POWER, AS WELL AS ANYTHING IN ME THAT DOESN’T RESPOND WITH LOVE. FATHER, EXPOSE THE CORRUPTION IN ME AND REMOVE IT FAR FROM ME. LET ME BE VIRTUOUS, A PERSON OF MY WORD WHO REPRESENTS YOU WELL AMONGST PEOPLE. I ASK, LORD GOD, THAT YOUR PERFECT WILL BEARS DOWN ON MY OWN WILL AND MY FLESHLY DESIRES. TOUCH MY HEART, CONSUME ME WITH YOUR PASSIONS, AND WRAP YOURSELF AROUND ME, FATHER. LET ME RECEIVE YOUR REBUKE AND TREASURE YOUR INSTRUCTION. LET ME UNDERSTAND THE FEAR OF THE LORD AND FIND KNOWLEDGE OF YOU. LET ME CHOOSE FEAR OF THE LORD OVER FEAR OF EVIL, AND LET MY HEART KEEP YOUR COMMANDS. FATHER, REMIND ME OF YOUR PROMISES AND LET THEM REST IN MY HEART AND ON MY TONGUE. OPEN THE EYES OF MY UNDERSTANDING THAT I MAY KNOW THE HOPE OF YOUR CALLING. LET ME PONDER THE PATH OF MY FEET AND KEEP MY EYES STRAIGHT AHEAD ON THE MARK. DO NOT LET ME GROW COMPLACENT IN DOING WHAT IS GOOD IN YOUR SIGHT. LET UNDERSTANDING DELIVER ME FROM THE WAY OF EVIL. LET TRUTH AND MERCY STAY WITH ME. LET ME UNDERSTAND RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE. LET ME UNDERSTAND HUMILITY THAT I MAY CONTINUE TO RECEIVE YOUR GRACE. FATHER, DO NOT LET ME BECOME WISE IN MY OWN EYES, BUT HELP ME TO RENEW MY MIND AND EMBRACE YOUR WAYS. LORD HELP ME TO ACCEPT THAT YOUR WAY AND YOUR THOUGHTS ARE HIGHER THAN MY WAYS AND MY THOUGHTS. LET ME PERCEIVE THE WORDS OF UNDERSTANDING AND RECEIVE THE INSTRUCTION OF WISDOM. LORD, GOD OF ALL WISDOM, LET ME ATTAIN WISE, GODLY COUNSEL AND INCLINE MY EAR TO WISDOM. LET ME HEAR AND INCREASE LEARNING. LET DISCRETION PRESERVE ME, FATHER, IN ALL PLACES I GO, IN EVERY ENVIRONMENT AND AROUND ALL PEOPLE. GOD, LET ME FIND YOU AS I SEEK YOU DILIGENTLY. BRING HONOR TO MY FAMILY AND CROWN US WITH YOUR GLORY. I ASK THESE THINGS IN JESUS’ MIGHTY NAME, AMEN.
