Healing Prayer:
My heavenly Abba, heal me of perfectionism and help me to abide in Yeshua, that I may bear much fruit. Sometimes, I drive myself to distraction with my desire to be perfect. Thank You for showing me that all I am, have and am able to accomplish comes from You. Keep reminding me that it is in You I live and move and have my being. Abba, nowhere in Your Word do You tell me that You have un-realistic expectations of me or require me to be a totally perfect person. Rather You tell me that my expectations are to be in You and my soul is to wait upon You. That is very freeing to me Abba. Deliver me from perfectionism. Through Your grace my dear Abba, I have been made a new creation. The old things that have always driven me to perfectionism are truly passed away and You have made all things new in my life. I am crucified with Moshiach. It is no longer I who live, but Moshiach lives in me and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in Your Son, Who loved me and gave Himself for me. In Moshiach I am complete. Fill me with the knowledge of Your will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding so I can walk worthy of You my Adonai and my YHVH and be fruitful in every good work, as I increase in my knowledge of You. Abba, You are my Light and my Salvation and You are the strength of my life. I place all my trust in You my Adonai and my YHVH and I know You will direct my paths. Thank You for delivering me from the power of darkness and translating me into the Kingdom of the Son of Your love, in whom I have redemption through his blood. I praise You mighty Abba, that I do not have to make myself perfect, but You are working in me both to will and to do of Your good pleasure. I know that You will perfect that which concerns me and therefore, I don’t have to try to do it all myself. I believe and trust You to complete the work You have begun in my life. Thank You for the Ruach Kodesh Who empowers me to accomplish great things. Having begun in the Spirit Abba, I renounce any attempt to make myself perfect through the flesh. Your strength is made perfect in my weakness and Your grace is sufficient for me. Thank You for healing me and delivering me from perfectionism, dear Abba. In Yeshua’ wonderful Name I pray, amein.
