Adrian Rogers Inspired Daily Prayer | November 13, 2026

“I’ll take care of it” can leave your mouth in a second. The work may take longer than you thought, or you may realize you cannot do it by the time you promised. This Adrian Rogers inspired daily prayer for November 13, 2026 asks for the wisdom to make honest commitments and the courage to speak up when a promise needs attention.

Today’s Scripture

“But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay.” — Matthew 5:37a, KJV

Jesus calls for plain speech that can be trusted. Consider one commitment another person is counting on you to keep. Do they know what you agreed to and when they can expect it? If your circumstances have changed, a brief update can help them plan. A trustworthy response often starts before the work is finished, when you tell someone clearly what you can do.

A Prayer to Keep Your Word

Father, give me care with the promises I make today. Help me listen fully before I agree to something. Give me time to consider my other commitments, the resources available, and the people affected. When I need a moment to check, give me the confidence to say so.

Help me keep track of what I have already agreed to do. Show me what needs a place on the calendar or a reminder where I will see it. Give me a steady willingness to do the work when the moment arrives. Let my actions match the confidence I asked someone to place in my words.

Where I have missed a promise, give me courage to address it plainly. Help me acknowledge the inconvenience I caused and listen to what the other person needs now. If I can offer a realistic repair, guide me to make it. If someone needs to make a different arrangement, help me respect that choice.

Teach me to value an honest answer from others. When someone has to say no, help me hear it without making them feel guilty for having a limit. Thank You for the people whose words I can rely on. Let their example encourage me to speak clearly and follow through with patience today. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

One Small Step Today
