Workplace Prayer

Work is a spiritual battle.
Be prepared.

We give thanks for the work that you do every day in the name of Jesus.　Thank you for standing in the gap in your marketplace. We pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which He has called you. (Ephesians 1:18)

If you find these prayers helpful, feel free to share them with other Jesus followers. If the Lord opens a door for you to share it with a coworker, go ahead!

工作者的禱告：接受基督的肯定 | Prayer of Assurance for People @ Work

每個工作者都需要得到肯定。可惜公司的嘉許，客戶的讚賞，以至自己的信心，往往只建立在利潤、成績和效率上。假如你曾經或正在因工作感到迷惘，憂慮，沮喪或透不過氣，現在請歸回安息，認定誰是職場的主。以下經文可以由兩人使用，互相得到肯定。用的時候代入對方名字，然後對換。當然也可以作個人禱告默想導引。

  • 你是天父的兒女（約1:12），聖靈與你同在（約14:16）。
  • 耶穌明白你今天面對的挑戰（來4:15-16），請放心告訴他。
  • 耶穌基督的權柄能力遠超一切，包括你的職場（弗1:17-22）。
  • 你今天的召命包括你的工作，求天父讓你存憐憫，恩慈，謙虛，溫柔，忍耐的心，無論做甚麼，都能從心裡做，像是給主做的（西3:12, 23）。
  • 願天父在你的職場憐憫你，賜福給你，讓你的工作有果效，得到回報，也讓你的言行帶著耶穌的恩慈（詩67）。
 We all need to be assured of the work we do. The only problem is that commendations from supervisors, appreciation from clients, and even our own confidence, too often depend on profit, performance, efficiency and effectiveness. If you have ever felt lost, worried, depressed or stressed out at work, now is the time to pause. Be still and acknowledge the Lord of the marketplace. Use the following prayer guide with your prayer partner. While reading the prayer, insert the name of the other person. Use it also for personal prayer and meditation.

  • You are a child of God (John 1:12). Our Comforter the Holy Spirit is with you (John 14:16).
  • Jesus knows your struggles today (Hebrews 4:15-16), so go ahead and tell him what you’re facing.
  • Jesus Christ rules over all authority and power and institutions, including your marketplace (Ephesians 1:17-22).
  • Your calling today includes your work. Pray that our Father will give you compassion, kindness, humility, meekness and patience as you work. Pray that you will do everything from your heart, as done for the Lord (Colossians 3:12, 23).
  • May our Father have mercy on you, bless you and let your work bear fruit. May you speak and act with the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ (Psalm 67).

工作者的禱告 | A Worker’s Prayer

主阿，感謝你信任我，將今天的工作交給我。
求你幫助我認定你的同在－無論讀經、
默禱、開聲禱告、或服事人，都完全倚靠你。
幫助我凡事盡力，並常存開放的態度與人交往。
聖靈阿，當我犯罪，求你責備；
若罪伏在門前，求你警告；讓我常常警醒。
當我害怕，求你擁抱我。
當我走完一天路程，讓我憑信心接受你的寬恕。
求讓我知道，你會用我的善行，並補我之不足。
讓我憑信心接受你的保護，安然躺下休息。
當晨光再現，求讓我帶著感恩的心起來，
將新的一天完全奉獻給你。阿門		 Lord, thank you for trusting me
with today’s tasks.
Help me acknowledge you
at every turn, through scripture,
silent prayer, open prayer,
acts of kindness
or words of comfort.
Help me deliver my best in all I do,
and help me receive everyone
with an open mind.
Holy Spirit, convict me when I sin,
warn me when I’m about to sin, and
alert me to sin’s destructive power.
Hold me close when I’m afraid.
When the day is done,
grant me trust in Your forgiveness.
Assure me that You will multiply
my good deeds
and make up for my shortcomings.
Help me trust in your protection that I may lie down and rest.
As the dawn breaks, grant me
a grateful heart as I wake up
and dedicate the new day to You.

Amen

上帝與我們同在 | God with Us

上帝膀臂緊抱我肩．聖靈恩膏在我額上
基督十架成為印記．聖靈微聲充滿雙耳
聖靈香氣使我警醒．屬天榮美現我眼前
嘴唇潔淨能說恩言．雙手能為基督作工
雙足走路服事人神．心靈開敞接待我主
盡心盡性盡意．榮歸天父．
阿門		 The arms of God be around
my shoulders,
The touch of the Holy Spirit
upon my head,
The sign of Christ’s cross
upon my forehead,
The sound of the Holy Spirit in my ears,
The fragrance of the Holy Spirit
in my nostrils,
The vision of heaven’s company
in my eyes,
The conversation of heaven’s company on my lips,
The work of God’s church in my hands,
The service of God’s people
and the neighbor
in my feet,
A home for God in my heart,
And to God, the Father of all,
my entire being.
Amen.
(St Fursey’s Prayer)

全副軍裝 | The Armor of God

我以真理作腰帶束腰　－
求主讓我行事為人以聖經真理為基礎；
我以公義作護心鏡遮胸　－
是基督的公義，並非我的功德，
讓我成為義人；
我把平安的福音當作鞋子穿在腳上　－
是基督的十字架使我與神和好，如今我要隨時宣告人人可以靠著基督與神相和；
我拿著信心的盾牌　－
不是我自己的信心，而是基督的信實，
他的信實是我大小的盾牌；
我帶上救恩的頭盔　－
我已從罪中得拯救，
上帝還要在基督裏使我完全；
我拿起聖靈的寶劍　－
聖經在我手中，也在我心中，
我信靠聖靈的大能，
也相信神的話大有能力．
我奉耶穌的名站在破口，
靠著聖靈隨時多方禱告祈求．
（弗6:12-18）		 As I begin this new day,
I put on the belt of truth —
so that all that I think and do will be on the basis of the truth of scripture;
I put on the breastplate of righteousness — it is the righteousness of Christ and not the righteousness of my own works;
I wear the shoes of the gospel of peace — the cross of Christ has reconciled me to God, and I am ready to proclaim the good news that all may enjoy peace with God through Jesus Christ;
I take up the shield of faith —
the faithfulness of Christ is my shield;
I put on the helmet of salvation —
I have been saved from sin, and God is bringing me to perfection in Christ;
I take up the sword of the Spirit —
the Bible is in my hands and my heart, and I trust in the Holy Spirit
and the power of the Word.
In the Name of Jesus, I ask to stand in the gap and pray in the Spirit on all occasions with prayers and petitions.
(Ephesians 6:12-18)
