“O Lord, the God of our ancestors Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, make your people always want to obey you. See to it that their love for you never changes. 19Give my son Solomon the wholehearted desire to obey all your commands, laws, and decrees, and to do everything necessary to build this Temple, for which I have made these preparations.”

Lord God my Father,
I know you have chosen me as your son and you only wish the best for me. It is my choice to follow you and I do but I need help protecting me from poor decisions. Make me strong and give me focus on the task at hand you wish for me to do. May I serve you wholeheartedly and rejoice in my service. You have given me all I need to bring you honor, purify my spirit so it only desires to serve you.

In Jesus name I pray,
