Prayer for our sufferings as Christians
Romans 12:2 21st Century King James Version (KJ21)
And be not conformed to this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Lord our God send your Holy Spirit, so that we can discern your good, nice and perfect will. Give us joy to fight by your side, so that what is good, pleasant and perfect can be given to the world. May we never forget that we should not be surprised by the fire of trial that has come to test us in our midst, since to the extent that we share the sufferings of Christ, we rejoice, so that in the revelation of his glory we may also have great joy . Wherever we are and whatever work we do, give us the peace that surpasses all understanding and extends our days to serve you while we are guided by you; bringing the light of the gospel of Christ so that your will be done and your kingdom come, so that it is possible to find happiness through hope in Christ Jesus. We ask this in the name of your beloved son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
