Lord, I pray that You would help me to learn how to only spend what flatland currency I need to in order to take care of my family’s important needs, and to invest all the rest in Your kingdom, Your eternal treasury. Lord, please deepen my appreciation and understanding that kingdom currency, backed by the Eternal Treasury, is the only medium of exchange recognized by the Son of God whose government will last forever. Amen.
Harden Wiedemann wrote this “Transformational Prayer” for his life and leadership with Alpha USA, inspired in part by the format suggestions of Rick Laymon. He shared it with me in our email correspondence on 4 June 2014.
I am sharing this prayer today because Harden expressed that it’s helping to calibrate the compass of his life and leadership to the Kingdom path. I plan to share it with Alpha USA leaders today in Chicago and with my students at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School this evening. I love how it drips with humility and sincerity and pray it blesses you. Maybe it will be something you print or adapt as a prayer for your own journey.
