A Prayer of Success for Your Graduate

Written By Germaine Copeland

Thank You, Father, that the teaching of Your Word gives light.

The Word You speak (and I speak) is alive and full of power—making it active, operative, energizing, and effective. I receive the spirit of power and of love and of a calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control that You have given to me. My qualification comes from You, and You have enabled me to be a minister of Your New Covenant—not of written laws but of the Spirit, who gives life.

In the name of Jesus, I submit to the destiny You planned for me before the foundation of the world. I give thanks to You, Father, for qualifying me to share in the inheritance of Your holy people in the kingdom of Light. Father, thank You for showing me that every “failure” is a learning experience and another stepping stone to success.

I belong to Christ, and I am a new person. The old life is gone, and a new life has begun. The past no longer controls my decisions. I forget the things that are behind and look forward to what lies ahead. I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.

Today I listen carefully to God’s words. I don’t lose sight of them. I let them penetrate deep into my heart, for they bring life to me and healing to my whole body. I guard my heart above all else, for it determines the course of my life. Today I hold onto kindness and truth. I tie them around my neck and write them upon my heart so I will find favor and good understanding in the eyes of God and man.

Today my delight is in the teachings of the Lord and I reflect on them day and night. I am like a tree planted beside streams—a tree that produces fruit in season and whose leaves do not wither. I succeed in everything I do.

Thank You Father for the power Christ has given me. He leads me and makes me win in everything. Amen.
