Prayer based on John 13:37. Themes: Commitment, Sacrifice, Loyalty.

Dear Lord, like Peter, I too desire to follow you with all my heart. I want to lay down my life for you and serve you faithfully. I claim the promise that you will never leave me nor forsake me, and that you will guide me every step of the way. Help me to trust in your unfailing love and to follow you wherever you lead me. Strengthen my faith and give me the courage to stand firm in the face of adversity. Thank you for your grace and mercy, and for the promise of eternal life with you. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Verse: Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
John 13:37

This is a Promise. Peter promises to lay down his life for Jesus.
