Leadership Prayers

GOD, this leadership role that I play from time to time, this character I assume, is a gift from you. You know I am not essentially the head of all this. I am merely your child, trying to become like you and do what you want.

Unless your Spirit informs and encourages me, I will not know how to play my part.

If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. James 1:5, NIV

Help me sense my spiritual gifts so I will attempt only what you especially enable me to do and lead only where you are at work.

I am your child, and I want to learn, but unless your Spirit teaches me, I have little to offer. I need your wisdom.

Teach me to go beyond the facts and feelings. My spirit waits quietly. I need your wisdom.

If you will whisper the cues, I will improvise.
