Prayer Topic: Self-Worth

People struggling with low self-worth and/or low self-esteem are dealing with a deep sense of loss in identity and sense of belonging. They tend to battle with insecurity and engage in unhealthy comparison. It is important to show encouragement and belief in them. When we give our lives to Jesus, we are automatically a part of the kingdom and His transformational love reminds us that our sense of self comes from him, and Him alone.

Possible Things to Pray for:

• Faith in God’s transformational love
• Repenting and asking for strength to be kind to oneself
• Authority that comes from the Holy Spirit over thoughts, words and deeds
• Renewed sense of self in Christ
• God writes their story and fights their battles for them
• Surrendering and silencing the strongholds that are hindering our receiving of God’s love.
