Prayer based on Jesus’ parable of the sower
Matthew 13:1-23, Mark 4:1-20, and Luke 8:1-15

Jesus, you sow yourself
The Word of Truth, generously
The Word of Life, graciously

Defend us from the Evil One
Who seeks to snatch us away

Fortify us for hard times and costly discipleship
That we may endure

Deliver us from distraction
From worldly desires and
All that would lure us and choke us with false promises

Till us
Turn us
Enrich us with every blessing of your Spirit
That we may be good, good soil
Forever faithful and fruitful for you
Amen

  1. Hello,
    May I have permission to use your prayer in our small group study on Matthew? Your name and website would be cited.

  2. Hello,
    May I have your permission to use your prayer on the prayer sheet which is going out to our congregation this week? The sermon is on the Parable of the Sower so your prayer is very relevant? I will of course attribute it to you.
