Prayer based on John 3:8. Themes: Spirit, Birth, Mystery
Dear Lord, I thank you for the promise that the wind blows where it wants to, and we hear its sound, but we don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. I claim this promise for my life, that just as the wind is guided by your hand, so too am I guided by your Spirit. I pray that I may be born of the Spirit and be led by your will, even when I don’t understand where you are taking me. Help me to trust in your plan for my life and to follow your lead, knowing that you are always with me. Thank you for your love and guidance, and for the promise that I am born of the Spirit. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Verse: The wind blows where it wants to, and you hear its sound, but don’t know where it comes from and where it is going. So is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”
John 3:8
This is a Promise. The verse is describing the nature of those who are born of the Spirit, comparing them to the wind that cannot be controlled or predicted.
