One night the Lord said to Paul in a vision, “Don’t be afraid. Continue speaking. Don’t be silent. I’m with you and no one who attacks you will harm you, for I have many people in this city.” ~ Acts 18:9-10 (CEB)
Lord,
THANKS: I'm grateful for your message and that you would even consider using me as a messenger. I'm honored.
REGRETS: I get frustrated, though, because people don't take me seriously when I speak with your message. And I really feel like I want to be a successful speaker. I don't want to feel like I'm wasting my life. But that is focusing too much on me.
INTERCESSION: Help me to keep your purposes in mind. Help me to get past making everything about me.
PURPOSE: I desire to be a bold and faithful messenger of your good message.
Amen.
