I come to You my Lord asking for guidance in helping me to lose weight and get healthy. I want to live the life that You have given me to the fullest. You said, “to ask and believe, then I can receive.” I have tried many ways and found that I am just too weak and inconsistent to cooperate with the process of being free from the bondage of appetite. I want to be an example and witness of Your great power. I know I have a call, purpose, and destiny to fulfill. Fulfilling my calling is difficult when too much of me is in the way. Please have mercy upon me and let Your grace abound abundantly.
Bring Your divine intervention to alter my taste buds. Cause me to reject the foods that are harmful for me and not be swayed by deceptive smells. Please grant me the strength to say yes to healthy eating, and no to unhealthy temptations. I pray for an increase in my metabolism, and the reduction of unhealthy cholesterol and fat tissues that would harm my heart, arteries, or any organ of my body. Please correct any imbalance of my hormones that would cause me to gain weight. I repent for being disobedient in protecting and caring for Your temple. You said that man cannot live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from Your mouth. I ask for Your continued conviction, counsel, and correction to guide me through this process.
Let the anointing and love of Christ become my fulfillment instead of food. I am guilty of emotional eating and drinking, and I repent for allowing my feelings to dictate my appetite. You said that I am fearfully and wonderfully made, and that You love me unconditionally. Please help me to see myself the way that You do and love myself the way You love me. Put my life in divine order, and help me to break the power of ungodly and unhealthy influences including rejection, fear, and shame.
Reset, refresh, renew, and reconnect me to Your presence, power, and truth, and heal my body from all illnesses and unhealthy labels placed upon my life from my words and the words of others. I thank You for this new day and new way of living. Help me to feed from Your word and faithfulness. I trust You have heard me, and will help me from this day forward. I promise to give You all the glory, and I ask and decree this all in Jesus Name. Amen.
