Prayer for Communication Skills



Everlasting Lord,

I desire with all my heart to serve your purpose for me in this world, but I feel like I am lacking in my skills to bring your plans to fruition. I feel like I am failing in my relationship because I cannot communicate as I should.

 Lord, I understand that words are powerful and can create opportunities or destroy them just as quickly. Help me to choose words that build opportunities so that I can better serve the community. Help me to identify the moments where my words have caused more problems than they have solved and teach me to handle these situations better in the future.

Lord help me to recognize when I am speaking out of hurt or anger and help me to control my tongue in these circumstances

Thank you for the ability to speak. Help me to guard my body language so that it matches what I say and that I do not accidentally appear to be disingenuous. Forgive me for those when I have told untruths, half-truths or otherwise used my words to manipulate others. Help me by your grace to do better in the future.

In Jesus' name, I pray.

Amen
