Prayer for Work Stress

Prayer for Work Stress

Heavenly Father,

You see me right now in the middle of my work pressures and responsibilities. My mind feels heavy, my heart is restless, and stress keeps weighing me down. I confess that I have been trying to carry it all on my own, and I am tired.

Lord, I lay before You every deadline, every task, every meeting, and every demand that feels bigger than me. I ask You to replace my anxiety with Your peace, my frustration with Your wisdom, and my weariness with Your strength.

Help me to work with excellence but also with balance. Remind me that my worth is not in how much I achieve, but in who I am in You. Teach me to rest in Your presence even while I work. Guard me from anger, burnout, and discouragement. Fill me with patience, focus, and clarity to handle each responsibility one step at a time.

I ask for favor with my coworkers, understanding from my leaders, and joy in the small victories along the way. Let my work glorify You, and let my attitude reflect Your light even in stressful moments.

Thank You that I don’t have to face this stress alone—you are my strength, my refuge, and my peace.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
