Prayer based on Acts 13:2. Themes: Calling, Obedience, Holy Spirit

Dear Lord, as we serve you and fast, we pray that your Holy Spirit will speak to us and guide us in the work that you have called us to do. Help us to discern your will and to be obedient to your calling, just as Barnabas and Saul were separated for your work. May we be willing vessels, ready to be used by you for your glory. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.

Verse: As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.”
Acts 13:2

This is a Command. The Holy Spirit commands the readers to separate Barnabas and Saul for the work to which He has called them.
