Heavenly Father,
I come to You in prayer as I begin this workday. I thank You for the opportunity to use my skills and talents for Your glory.
I ask that You would guide me in all that I do and say. Give me Your wisdom and discernment as I make decisions. I ask for Your protection and provision for me and my colleagues. May we be a united team, working towards Your purposes.
I pray for Your blessings on our company and the work that we do. Give us opportunities to be a light for You in the workplace. Help me to be a positive influence on those around me, showing Your love and grace in all my interactions.
I trust in You and Your plan for my life and for this job. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
