Prayers for Weight Loss & Body Image Issuesनमुना

Focus verses: Psalm 37:3-5 (NLT), Trust in the Lord and do good. Then you will live safely in the land and prosper. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust him, and he will help you.

Focus thoughts: No matter how spiffed up and pretty you are in front of your friends or the mirror or a group of friends, the real you lies beneath what everyone can see. There is only one real place of hope—God. We have an Advocate at work; ask Him for His powerful help.
Jesus is deeply involved in our lives and concerned with our struggles. Help is always close by!

Pray: God, I need you. Help me to make the changes I need to make to overcome my struggles. Set me free. The world has damaged and twisted my perspective from what is holy and good into a counterfeit version of what you created. Take me back to the place where it all started in the garden of your goodness. Guide me in identifying the changes I need to make and strengthen me to make them. I confess I have made a mess of my life, and I need you to take over. I lay before you my weaknesses and sins. Thank you, God, for your grace and mercy.

Continue your work in me and clean up my heart. Search out any darkness in me and renew me by your Holy Spirit. Do not forsake the work of your hands, Lord. Keep me far from temptation. May I not fall to excuses. Show me the way out of my bad habits so that I can reflect good godly healthy habits. I commit my changes to you. I want to trust you. Please align my desires according to your will. Befriend me with your faithfulness. I want to delight in you and find my comfort and peace through you. Forgive me when I fall short.

Remind me of your hope and future for my life. Your intentions are good. I want to live a life of purity and good health when it comes to my health goals. Help me take care of my body in the right way. Let my foot not slip to sin. I thank you Lord for your cleansing work. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
