Prayer for Self Discipline:
Hebrews 12:11 “For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant, but later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.”
My Heavenly Father, I need your help in learning how to organize and prioritize my work. I am an intelligent person. but I deal with procrastination. I plead with you in helping me learn how to prioritize my duties and tasks. Help me learn to organize what needs to be done so I get more done without waiting until the last minute. You tell me my life is a book to my fellow men. My desire is to demonstrate purpose and dignity to my family friends, acquaintances, and all I come into contact with. I can’t do that without your help.
Lord, I ask that you help me with nonproductive thoughts and activities that are getting in the way of what you desire of me and what I know I need to accomplish in my daily life. This boils down to discipline. I need more. Please keep me focused and remove distractions. Keep me focused minute by minute, building self-discipline to remove barriers to productivity. Social media, television, and technology are time robbers. I ask you to help me capture my straying thoughts and make them laser-focused on what you want to be accomplished.
I ask that you help me prioritize what is important. Lord, I desire to begin my day with you. I pray for self-discipline to make that the number one priority in my life. After that, I ask the Holy Spirit show me which tasks should take priority. I have a tendency to work on projects that are easy when they may not be the most important. Lord, help me concentrate on importance rather than easy.
Lord, I acknowledge you are my strength when I am weak. I surrender my life to you. I give you all the glory for the positive changes that are going to manifest in my life. In Jesus’ precious name.

Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.“
