It comes from the Given Life website.
Prayer
for the Fruits of the Spirit
(inspired by
Galatians 5: 22-23)
Holy
Spirit, work in us, and through us to glorify yourself.
Cleanse
us and mold us into the people that you want us to be.
We
lay our lives down before you, God.
Not
our will, God. Your will!
We
offer ourselves as living sacrifices to you, God.
Burn
us up in your refiner’s fire
so
that all that’s left is your righteousness.
Let
us operate in the fruits of your Spirit, God:
love,
joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness,
gentleness and self-control—we want it all.
These
are the defining characteristics of who you are, Jesus,
and
if we want people to see you in us,
we
need these characteristics to define us as well.
Make
it so, Holy Spirit. Move in us.
Clear
out the junk in our hearts that is preventing us from being fruitful.
All
we want is you, Jesus.
You
are our all in all.
