 Introduction

W e all need an abiding walk with God. And

that can happen because of His Holy Spirit
in us. The way we walk with Him is to stay in close
contact by communicating through prayer. We must
talk to Him. But He also wants to talk to us. And
that, too, happens by His Holy Spirit in us.
There are so many reasons we need to hear from
God each day, but some of the main ones are so that
we can make right decisions, live the way He wants
us to, and stay on the path He has for us. In order to
do all that, we have to draw near to Him. That means
not only taking time to speak to Him, but also to lis-
ten to whatever He wants to tell us personally.
God wants to do things in your life that can-
not happen without the power of His Holy Spirit

 guiding you, and you following His leading. These
prayers—which come from the book Lead Me, Holy
Spirit—will help you to establish a life of ongoing
prayer, and also keep you mindful that God wants
you to hear His voice as He speaks to your heart
about the specifics of your life.

Led to Receive the Relationship with

God You Have Always Needed

L ord, help me to know You more. Enable

me to fully understand my relationship
with You through Jesus, Your Son. Help me, Jesus,
to comprehend all You accomplished for me on
the cross. Thank You for Your suffering and death,
which have saved me from the consequences of
my own wrong thoughts and actions. I am eter-
nally grateful that after You were crucified, You
rose from the dead to prove that You are who You
say You are and that Your words and promises are
without fail. I declare that You are Lord over ev-
ery aspect of my life. Thank You for forgiving me
of all my sins, giving me a new beginning and the
promise of eternity with You.

Led to Receive the Promise

of God’s Spirit in You

L ord, I ask You for a great outpouring

of   Your Holy Spirit in me. Enable me
“to know the love of Christ which passes knowl-
edge” so that I “may be filled with all the fullness”
of   You (Ephesians 3:19). I don’t ever want to take
lightly the fact that You have sent Your Spirit to
dwell in me, to guide and help me live the life You
have for me. Help me to hear the leading of   Your
Spirit telling me the way to walk. Give me under-
standing about all You want to do in and through
me. I invite You to move powerfully through me,
for I know that Your Spirit in me is how You touch
the world around me.

Led to Receive the Freedom and

Wholeness God Has for You

L ord, help me to receive the wholeness You

have for me. Free me from everything that
keeps me from becoming all You created me to
be. Thank You, Holy Spirit, that I can find lib-
erty in Your presence (2 Corinthians 3:17). Lib-
erate me from anything in me or around me that
is not Your will for my life. Set me free from ev-
ery evil work. Quiet my mind, cleanse my heart,
heal every negative emotion, and set me free from
anything that is not of   You. Thank You that You
will continue to deliver me until I am completely
whole. Enable me to stand strong against ever fall-
ing back into any kind of bondage or error again.

 We had the sentence of death in ourselves,
that we should not trust in ourselves but in God
who raises the dead, who delivered us from so
great a death, and does deliver us; in whom
we trust that He will still deliver us.

Led to Receive the Inheritance

Laid Up for You as God’s Child

L ord, thank You that You are my heavenly

Father and You have made me to be Your
child (1 John 3:1). I am grateful for the inheritance
You have given me and that You have made me to
be a joint heir with Christ. Help me to understand
all that this means and how I am to possess what
You have for my life. Holy Spirit, I come before
You and ask You to speak to my heart about what-
ever I need to know. Show me what You want me
to see. Enable me to follow Your leading as I move
into this holy inheritance and open up to every
thing You have provided for my life.

 The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit
that we are children of God, and if children,
then heirs—heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ,
if indeed we suffer with Him, that we
may also be glorified together.

Led to Be Filled with His

Power and Might

L ord, thank You for the gift of   Your Holy

Spirit in me. Help me to never restrict the
Spirit’s flow moving in and through me, chang-
ing me into Your likeness and touching others for
Your kingdom. I pray for a fresh filling of   Your
Spirit right now—greater than I have known be-
fore. Thank You, Holy Spirit, for Your power and
might on my behalf. Thank You that Your Spirit
in me is “a fountain of water springing up into
everlasting life” (    John 4:14). Thank You that You
give me access to Your power for Your purposes.
I know it is not by my strength, but by the power
of   Your Spirit that I can do great things for You
(Zechariah 4:6).

Led to Be Filled with His Truth

and Understanding

L ord, thank You that I have the mind of

Christ, and because of that I can know the
things I need to understand. Thank You, Holy
Spirit of truth, that You have filled me with Your
truth and understanding. I know I cannot fully
see the truth without You. Keep me undeceived.
Enable me to hear Your voice above all others
so that I can always distinguish the truth from
a lie. Thank You that “You will guide me with
Your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory”
(Psalm 73:24). Give me the truth, knowledge,
and understanding I need in order to make right
choices and decisions about every person and sit-
uation. Lead me always in the way of   Your truth.
