Please pray aloud: King of Glory, I come to you now interceding for my pastor. Remind him you have called him to be an overseer of both himself and the church.
I pray for my pastor’s physical health. Remind him that his body is the temple of your Holy Spirit. As your Word commands, help him to eat, drink, exercise, and sleep for your glory. Keep him from disease and physical harm. May his service of your church never be compromised because of his physical capabilities.
I pray for my pastor’s emotional health. Help him to have realistic expectations of his capabilities. Help him to work hard when he works, and to relax well when he relaxes. Help him manage stress and negativity appropriately. Let your peace guard his heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
I pray for my pastor’s relational health. Help him to flourish in his first calling as a husband and as a parent. Help his home have the proper order your Word commands. Make his friendships mutually edifying. Bless his extended family to also operate with healthy boundaries.
I pray for my pastor’s financial health. Your Word says the worker is worth their wages, so help the church pay them in proportion to their labor. As you bless him, help him to also prioritize his spending to give, save, care for, and enjoy his wealth in a way that pleases you.
I pray for his spiritual health. Help him to prioritize daily private time with you in prayer and in Scripture. Let your springs of living water well up within him, that he never leads out of spiritual drought or hypocrisy. Give him a hunger and thirsting for Your righteousness, and a heart to abide in you. Give him the zeal and fervent spirit your Word commends.
Bless my pastor, Lord!
In Jesus’ name. Amen.
