We are delighted to lift you up in prayer as you play in your quarter-final soccer match today. Remember that your talent and ability come from God, and He delights in seeing you use them for His glory. As you prepare, keep in mind the words of Colossians 3:23 WEB: "Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord, and not for men."
Let us pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today to lift up our fellow believer as they compete in their quarter-final soccer match. Lord, we pray for their strength, endurance, and skill to be amplified and that their faith be unwavering and their determination be relentless. Help them to remain focused on You and to trust in Your guidance and wisdom.
Father, we also pray for their teammates and opponents, that everyone would compete fairly and with good sportsmanship, and that Your will be done in the outcome of the game. We ask that Your power would be evident on the field today. Purposely, we pray and believe in the name of Jesus Christ.
Lord, we also take this opportunity to pray for the salvation of all those who are playing and watching the game. May they know that it is only by Your Son's Name that they can be saved. May they believe in Jesus and ask Him to save them. WEB Romans 10:9-11 - because, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart man believes, resulting in righteousness; and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. For the Scripture says, "Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed.
We ask this in the powerful name of Jesus Christ, who gives us victory over sin and death and in whom we can do all things. Amen.
May the love of Christ surround you and may He grant you favor and success today.
