A Christian Counselor
Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray for _____________ to exhort and counsel the emotionally wounded. I ask in faith that Your Spirit will rest upon him/her — the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might. Give him/her insight and knowledge for understanding his/her counselees’ responses to circumstances.
Thank You, Father, that __________ is a good listener to the confessions of his/her counselees. Help him/her to comprehend the unfolding of those past hurts that influence reactions to current situations.
Lord, ________ will not judge by what he/she sees with his/her eyes or decide by what he/she hears with his/her ears. He/she will judge the needy and give decisions with justice. Righteousness will be his/her belt, and faithfulness the sash around his/her waist. He/she will be clothed with fairness and with truth.
Thank You that ________ is a promoter of peace and is filled with joy. Grant Your counselor, out of the rich treasury of Your glory, to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling his/her innermost being and personality].
You will not leave ________ without support as he/she gives his/her time and concern, helping to complete the forgiveness process. He/she will be confident about his/her convictions, knowing excellent things, and will have the knowledge to assist Your children in knowing the certainty of the words of truth.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
