THANK YOU IN ADVANCE

Titus 2:11-14 For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all men, instructing us to deny ungodliness and worldly desires and to live sensibly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus, who gave Himself for us to redeem us from every lawless deed, and to purify for Himself a people for His own possession, zealous for good deeds.

Satan, we plead the Blood; you can't have our children. You can't have our families or our friends. But, devil, you can't have our increase because there is power in the name of Jesus. So, with the power of Jesus, in us and our faith, we break every stronghold, and we walk🚶‍♀️into 2022 free.

Jehovah Raah, You are our Shepherd; thank You for tending to our needs and our wounds of life. Jehovah Rapha, we pray for healing Spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically. Lord, we leave all strongholds over us in 2021 to give You room to move in our lives. Father, teach us how to breathe, so we are not quick to anger, so we stay focused on You.  Thank You, Jehovah Shammah, for always being there for us, even when we stray off the right path.   Jehovah Tsidkenu, thank You for helping us act with divine morals and love for You and each other. Thank You for setting us free from our sinful nature. Jehovah Mekoddishkem, thank You for setting us apart and declaring us holy; help us stay submissive to You.  Thank You, Jehovah Jireh, for giving us back all and more than what life situations took. Thank You, when we were at our last, You showed up and prepared a meal, for us, in the presence of our enemies. God, You have been so good to us, and we are so grateful. Thank You, Lord, for the anointing You have on our lives. Jehovah Sabaoth, thank You for the host of Angels 😇You surrounded us to help protect us from the fiery arrows 🏹of our enemies. Thank You for reversing their evil plots and snares on them even though they didn't get it. Thank You, Jehovah Shalom, for Your peace through all the storms, betrayal, and our walk through this Valley of death; in Jesus' name Amen. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Isaiah 40:30-31 Even youth grow weary and young men stumble and fall: but those who hope in the Lord will renew our strength. We will soar on wings like eagles; we will run and not grow weary; walk and not faint.

I know it's been a tough year, but don't get discouraged; God still cares, and He's working behind the scenes in our favor. But, we must be patient "those that wait on God will have renewed strength. I am a witness. So, speak it into existence 2021 will be a better year.

Father, as we come to the closing of another year, we say thank You. Thank You for the ups and downs that help shape our lives. Thank You for Your hedge of protection around us, our families, and our friends ❤.   Thank You for forgiveness and teaching us how to forgive, so we can continue in peace. Lord, let us examine ourselves and seek Your help regularly, to become a better person. Lord, thank You for keeping us still and allowing You to fight our battles. Father, thank You for guiding us through this Valley of death and lifting us up when we were Spiritual and morally weak. Lord, help us seek You, in all we do, so we will have victory; because nothing works as planned, without You.  Father, as the New Year approaches, we ask for Your strength to; wash our hearts and minds of sin and let us not entertain evil. Lord, let not Satan or our enemies' goals and plans defeat or overcome us. So baptize us in the Holy Spirit to start 2022 renewed. Thank You, Lord, for Your grace, mercy, and favor, through this chaotic year, and we thank You in advance for this prosperous, peaceful, and brand New Year ahead of us. In Jesus name Amen 

ACKNOWLEDGE HIM HE WILL MAKE STRAIGHT OUR PATHS

Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him, and He will make our paths straight. Philippians 4:19 God will supply our every need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus. 1 Peter 5:7 Casting all our anxieties on Him because He cares for us.

Father, we intercede on behalf of all who face eviction, are unemployed, sick, or losing their homes or business. Lord, we don't deserve Your mercy and love, but we know You are faithful to Your Word. So, thank You in advance for removing every obstacle the enemy placed before us. Thank You for giving us eyes that see Your path and ears that hear Your instructions while we walk 🚶‍♀️through this Valley of death. Lord, this pandemic has brought nothing but destruction and fear. Father, let those with Malice's intention not use this virus to swindle the people, but let them stumble and fall in their own snares. Lord. Keep us humble and focused on You, so the Devil will flee from us, as You keep us in Your will. Lord, let our enemies who see themselves as better become our footstool as we continue serving Your purpose. Lord, give us the Spirit of wisdom, knowledge, and revelation of You, so we will know You better. Father, we pray You to enlighten our hearts to the riches of Your glory, and everything we are involved in will prosper, in Jesus' name. Amen.

THE TOUCH OF FAITH

Luke 8:46-48 46 But Jesus said, "Someone touched me; I know that power has gone out from me." 47 Then the woman, seeing that she could not go unnoticed, came trembling and fell at his feet. Then, in the presence of all the people, she told why she had touched him and how she had been instantly healed. 48 Then he said to her, "Daughter, your faith has healed you. Go in peace."

The lady with an incurable issue, with blood flow, by any doctor. But, she had enough faith in Jesus' healing powers that when she touched Him, the healing Spirit of Jehovah Rapha lifted His body. The woman was immediately healed, then she turned to walk away, but Jesus said, "who touched Me. All the people stopped and looked confused because everyone was touching Him. But, Jesus was talking about a touch of faith, He felt when she touched Him. 

Father, we know we don't deserve Your mercy and love that You, so Graciously give us Lord, we say thank You.  Lord, prune our Fruit and strengthen our faith. Lord, we want the same confidence that the woman with the issue of blood; had when she touched You.   Lord, let that same faith fill our hearts so, You will recognize us when we call. Father, let Your thoughts be our thoughts, to give You room, to move in our lives. Lord, let our prayers release the overflowing energy of faith that heals us Spiritually, physically, emotionally, and mentally. Father, we publicly confess our sins, and we pray, for Your strength, to repent. Lord, we thank You for the favor, healing our Spirits and helping us keep our flesh at rest. Father, let not our faith be selective in You but help us trust You in every aspect of our lives. In Jesus' name, Amen. 

SPEND LESS MONEY AND MORE TIME

Timothy 1:15-17 Here is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance: Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners—of whom I am the worst. But for that very reason, I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus, might display his immense patience as an example for those who believe in him and receive eternal life. So now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever.

Let's give Spiritual gifts 🎁 this year, like love, compassion, volunteering our time, forgiving someone, and the gift of self-control, that are more meaningful through Christ Jesus. That's the meaning of Christ-mas "Christ." But, we have turned it into a pagan Holiday that keeps us in debt. Instead, Christmas 🎄 should be more about the Spiritual things that hold and brings families and friends together ❤. A time that we can come together in prayer, praise, and worship. 

Father, forgive us for not recognizing Christmas's importance and true meaning. Lord, help us force more on the things of the Spirit that is free rather than that of the world 🌎 that keep us in debt. Lord, we are blessed because You have saved us thus far. So, thank You for Your grace and favor because so many were called home. Lord, 2020 has been a trying year, with crisis after crisis; please dismantle the hate, pride, envy, and jealousy that caused it. Lord, we thank You in advance for the order and calming Spirits going into 2021. Lord, God, Creator, Father, and Savior of all, we lift up in our prayers those suffering from job loss, sickness, war, oppression, and violence. Those who lost loved ones because of this pandemic. Forgive us, Lord, for being so parochial and stuck in the "them and not us" view of the world. Lord, let us be full of Your transforming love and compassion that helps us give the same mercy to all YOU give to us. Father, we know we do not deserve Your mercy, Your love, Your protection, Your provision, Your peace, but thank You for blessing us anyway, in Jesus' name Amen.

MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS

1 Thessalonians 4:11 and to aspire to live quietly, mind your own affairs, and work with your hands, as we instructed you,  Proverbs 26:17 Whoever meddles in a quarrel not his own is like one who takes a passing dog by the ears.

In other words, mind your own business. If you can't teach, reproof, correct, or train someone else in righteousness. Focus on you; God got everything else. People that tell other people business has a problem with their own household, but cleaning our own house is more accessible than trying to clutter someone else's.

Lord, we come to You to intercede for toxic people that see fit to gossip and backbite; please calm their destructive behaviors. Lord, remove all that stands in the way of their Spiritual wholeness and physical awareness. Father, let them be slow to anger and quick to forgive because we are all imperfect people, and we all make mistakes. Lord, help us see the truth about ourselves and focus all our time and energy on our correction. So, baptize us in the Spiritual healing powers of the Holy Spirit. Deliver us from the strongholds that cause backbiting and evil actions towards each other. Lord, save us from the self-destruction of hate and unforgiveness. Lord, give us eyes to see those that bring confusion and chaos and steer us clear of them, in Jesus' name Amen 🙏

IT HAS TO BE THE RIGHT ATTITUDE

Proverbs 3:9-10 Honor the Lord with your wealth, with the first fruits of all your crops; then your barns will be filled to overflow, and your vats brim over with new wine.

Never give out of obligation; the only person who will reap what you sow is the Church. Tithing is a Godly principle, and we should practice it as an act of faith. When we give with the right attitude, we reap what we sow. We were created with free will, even when we tithe. We can provide as we decide, not out of obligation but of love for God.

Father, help us seek Your Kingdom and righteousness with the right attitude. Thank You for justifying us by faith and giving us peace beyond understanding through Christ Jesus. Father, when we study 📖, let us receive whatever is accurate and honorable to You. Lord, teach us how to be better Stewards with Your money 💰, and help us commit to Your work, so Your plan will be established in our lives. Father, teach us to do Your will, guide us to level ground, and establish our footsteps in Your Word. Lord, give us Your strength and courage to not walk in the path of the wicked but stand on Your Word with faith. Help us practice what we have learned, so it will manifest in our lives 🙏 Lord, let our tithing be an act of faith, not an obligation, so we will reap what we sow. Thank You again for keeping us and helping us be better today than yesterday. In Jesus' name, Amen 🙏

SURROUND US WITH LIKE MINDED PEOPLE

Genesis 2:18 Then the Lord God said, "It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him a helper fit for him."

Cooperating with others has its advantages. Life is designed for companionship, not isolation, for intimacy, not loneliness. Unfortunately, some people prefer isolation, thinking they cannot trust anyone. We are not here on earth to serve ourselves but serve God and others. This is one of the reasons God surrounds us with Spiritual Soldiers because we cannot accomplish this walk alone.

Lord, none of us are made to be alone, so help us find the person You have for us. Someone that loves and fears You, so they will love and help us grow Spiritual, physically, and emotionally. Let us not be unevenly yoked; separate us from all that is not of You.  Lord, so much is going on in this world out of line with Your will. Please, bring order back to our lives and this world 🌎. Father, right now, life feels like a struggle, for many are grieving the loss of a loved one. So, many are experiencing the pain of divorce and broken relationships. Lord, people's jobs are being replaced by technology, and many face massive debt. Others are hurting for grown children who seem to have lost their way. Some are facing a new diagnosis of health issues. Others are still waiting for answered prayers. Lord, right now, some people feel like you have forsaken us. Lord, some of us are surrounded by people yet lonely inside; touch their hearts with Your comfort and peace. Lord, help those struggling through depression and darkness, battling worry, facing big fears, feeling lost in a sea of doubt. Give them Your strength and courage to walk by faith and not by sight. In Jesus' name Amen 

LET US PRAY

Father, we are petitioning You for all who are facing:

financial burdens
The child has gone astray.
Spouse chemically dependent
They're chemically dependent
Our children's safety in school
Our teacher's safety in school
The security of our Nation

Those Falsely Incarcerated
Those dying 💀 from  COVID-19
Those in an Abusive relationship
Those Sold into slavery
Those Sick and in pain
Those that are considering suicide
Those that are about to lose their homes

Or those that just need guidance through this land of darkness. We always need Protection around our children, our children, and ourselves s. We will need perseverance with our day-to-day struggles and confusion around us. And for all the children, teens, and adults sold into slavery. They need comfort from their pain and peace through their journey. We really need justice ⚖ to be served on those responsible for their suffering and pain.

Father, we come to You as a Nation built on Your Word. A Nation Built by those enslaved, the same people that are looked down on, fix this, Lord. Let us not be destroyed by hate and the foolishness of the s. Lord, right now, there is so much at stake in this Country; help us fix this in Jesus' name. Father, this is not a black and white issue, as it is a rich and poor. So, give us eyes that see the big picture and let those with a voice speak for the people. Father, pull the wool off all those in office spewing hate and committing crimes against Democracy and the people. In Jesus' name Amen

Brief description of your experience:

I was betrayed for 30 pieces of silver by someone who walked with me, heard my teachings, witnessed my miracles, and ate bread with me. I was denied by my best friends. They accused me of blasphemy and then beat me so severely that it ripped my skin. I was forced to carry a cross ✝️ up a hill while people I fed and cured hit and spit on me.  Then I was nailed to the cross, and they gave me vinegar when I was thirsty. Then they stabbed me in my side, but I still loved them.

Hobby: Saving Souls, forgiving people, showing mercy, grace, favor, and prayer 

Lord, thank You for forgiving us and loving us despite our faults. Father, thank You for delivering us from the dark pits of our strongholds and helping us see the light.  Lord, we long to be more like You, so remove all the obstacles that keep us from sitting at Your feet. Lord, when You wake us, let Your thoughts be our thoughts, and Your will be our will as we deal with our day-to-day struggles.  Lord, prune our Fruit and strengthen our faith, to give You room to move in our lives. In Jesus' name Amen

 

CORRECT OUR DEEDS OF THE FLESH

Galatians 6:8 For the one who sows to his own flesh will reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

God uses our strength in the flesh to help build His Spiritual Kingdom, and He usually finds a leader for the weak,  poor, and afraid. Who has the faith that gives courage and power to deliver His message?

Lord, let us be the vessel You use to serve Your purpose, so fill us with Your strength and courage to deliver a compelling message. Father, fill us with compassion for those who are oppressed and persecute those responsibly.  Lord, continue crucifying our fleshly passions and desires to give You room to move in our lives.  Father, we have been crucified with Christ. So, we no longer live in the flesh but through Christ, Who lives in us. And the life we now live in the flesh we live by the Word and faith in Him. Lord, continue rebuking and correcting our deeds of the flesh that are evident, so we will inherit Your promise. Lord, forgive us for falling short of Your love, grace, and mercy. Forgive us for not teaching the next generation the way to go, Lord, let us not lose another generation. Lord, thank You for the hedge of protection around us and our children and their children 🙏 ❤.  Lord, thank You for teaching us how to forgive, be still, and let, You fight against our enemies. Lord, let us not live according to the flesh but set our minds on the things of the Spirit, that gives life and prosperity, in Jesus' name Amen

CHRIST OVER EVERYTHING

Matthew 10:35-37 For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, the daughter against her mother, and the daughter in law against her mother in law.36 And a man's foes shall be they of his own household. 37 He that loveth father or mother more than me is not worthy of me: and he that loveth son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

As Believers, we will experience tension, anger, and alienation from everyone, even our family and friends. But, because Christ must take precedence over everything, sometimes we have to separate ourselves from people to make that happen.

Father, help us take up our cross and follow You, so we will be worthy in Your eyes. Let the Blood execute our fleshly desires and cleanse Your dwelling place, to give You room to move in our lives. Lord, let us live in a way that brings honor to You and Spiritual growth and awareness. Lord, we ask that You help us eliminate all the confusion around us and in the White House. Lord, let not the Spirit of fear operate in us, so strengthen our faith and help us with our unbelief. Lord, separate us from all that, not of You. Lord, let the lost recognize us as Your representatives, so they will receive us graciously. Lord, let them see that everything we do is done for Your glory, in Jesus' name Amen. 

PRAY PRAY PRAY

1 Thessalonians 5:17 pray without ceasing. Philippians 4:6 be careful of nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Pray for those closest to you.
Pray for our Pastor and Congregation
Pray for the weak, sick, homeless
Pray for our government and Leaders
Pray for justice ⚖ for all the innocent lives
We can pray without ceasing because there is always something or someone to pray for, and God commanded us to pray. Therefore, prayer must be part of our lives if we are to be obedient to His will.

Father, we pray for healing, Spiritual, physical, and emotional healing 🙏 ❤.  Lord, we pray for the recovery of our communities, neighborhoods, towns, cities, and countries. We pray for our children and their children; help us lead them back to You, and forgive us for not teaching them the way to go.  Lord, we pray for those with hate in their hearts 💕 fill them with the love of the Spirit.  Lord, we pray for those who persecute us; let Your will be done. Father, let us be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer; and let us pray in the Spirit on all occasions. Lord, let us not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving.  Lord, You know our hearts, better than ourselves, fix us, in the name of Jesus, fix us 🇺🇸.  Father, give us wisdom and knowledge, Lord, make plain what we do not understand. Search our hearts and minds; please remove all that hinders us from sitting at Your feet; in Jesus' name Amen. 

THANK YOU FOR YOUR GOODNESS

Psalm 27:13I would have lost heart, unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. 

God's goodness has no limit and His grace and favor are unmeasurable. Sometimes I sit and think about His goodness and I cry out with gratefulness. God, gave us instructions, on how He; could change us, from one condition to another. He can give us the secret to a happy life and show us how to take the fear out of dying. All we have to do is study and believe "even though we walk through the valley of death, we need not to fear; because He walks with us" our Savior.

Lord, it's ture You died, so we all could be freed from sin, but only those that truly receive You, are Your sheep. Father, Your grace is sufficient, but it only works for those that truly believe.  So, Lord, strengthen our faith and help us overcome our unbelief. Lord, You are our Shepherd and we have everything ❤ we need in You.  So, let Your Word nourish our Souls, as You lead our Spirits beside the still waters. Lord, let Your Word guide us, so we do not lack moral direction. Continue to keep Your hedge of protection around us and our families, as we confess our sins and ask for forgiveness ❤.  Teach us Your ways and lead us in the path of righteousness. Thank You, for not allowing us to lose heart, in the storms. Thank You, for Your sacrifice, that robbed death of its sting and washed away our sins forever, thank You, for Your goodness.  In Jesus name Amen

NOURISH YOUR SEED

This is the seed sown along the path. The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the one who hears the Word and at once receives it with joy. But since the Word has no root, it lasts only a short time.

To crack the shell of our seed, we must receive Christ, as our Savior.  For the seed to grow, we must continue nourishing our seed daily, with the Word.  Soon, there will be change and transitions: we will have a strong desire for His Word, prayer, praise, fellowship, and witness.  When we study the Word, our seed begins to grow, as it matures, so does His cleansing power, in us. So, whatever stronghold or obstacles that keep us from sitting at His feet, will be washed away.

Lord, sometimes, it’s easy to lose focus, with so much happening around us.  But, when we remember Your, goodness and faithfulness, it calms our Spirits and that brings things into focus.  Lord, we take comfort in knowing that You are always there, even when things seem to be falling apart, we still know it's for our good and it to shall pass. Father, think You, in advance for hearing our prayers and allowing Your Spirit to speak for us when we know not what to say.  Thank You, for cleansing our hearts 💕 giving You room to move and fill us with Fruit. So, we thank You, for mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual growth.  We thank You, for mercy, grace, and favor, so much favor.  Thank You, for Your guidance and protection through this Valley of death, and thank You, for Your strength and courage, that controls our fear and doubts. Thank You, for keeping Your hedge of protection around our children and our children's children.  Father, help us sow freely, what we should give and to whom. Father, and let us not sows to our own flesh, so we do not reap corruption, but only to the Spirit, so we will reap eternal life. In Jesus name Amen

WE ARE THE VESSEL HE USE TO BLESS OTHERS

We are hurting in this pandemic, one way or another, some more than others. So many believers are suffering and we are their first line of defense. Some people were barely making it before the pandemic, so they are really suffering now.  So, (2 Corinthians 9:6-8) Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.

God bless us so we can bless others. So, let those in need, see the God in us. Sacrifice what we don't need, for what someone really needs.

Father, so many people are suffering right now, give us discernment of who and what we should do.  Lord, give us eyes that see and a heart ❤ filled with Your love and compassion.  Lord, this is a great time to cleanse our home of the clothes, blankets, and other things we don't need. Lord, search our hearts and minds and remove all that is not of You. "So, we will help someone without constant complaining about our “precious time” being used up, or judging who we have been asked to help, or just being mad in our spirit. As we share or minister to others, it is not always about material possessions". Father, remove all greed from our hearts, so, we will not think about serving only ourselves, but, look to the needs of others, as well. Lord, give us a consuming passion for Your, Word, so, it will feel our hearts 💕 with the Holy Spirit. That will help us be kind to the poor and He will reward us for what we have done." But never forget, the mere act of being charitable, is its own reward. In Jesus name Amen 

LET US COME TOGETHER FOR RIGHTEOUSNESS

We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.

I know with all that's happening in our Country right now, asking people to pray, seems too simple. And I know some people feel defeated and too weak to fight.  But if we come together ❤ in prayer, God will hear us. "BELIEVE THAT"  and it will come to pass. We are not only fighting against the flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Lord, we pray for unity for righteousness, to save our Country. Let not the wickedness and hate of 666, destroy us.  Father, You said, " 1 John 4:7-21Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love. In this, the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another." So, why are so many believers hateful, Lord, please, Intervene in the hate that controls this country, right now in the name of Jesus.  Strike down the evil that exists in the Leadership of this Country.  Lord, we the people have spoken and let not corruption and hate, change our system.  Father, this Country is so divided, sickness, and death are out of control. People have lost their jobs, homes, loved ones 😕 how much more Lord, Intervene, please God, in the name of Jesus Amen

DON'T THINK TO HIGHLY OF OURSELVES

Romans 12: 3-5 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned.

LORD,  God, You are the creator of all that is good, open our hearts and  minds to You. Help us see that, Your way, the way of charity and peace, is the way to our fulfillment. Help us give our lives to You, and let us witness to the lost, how You can fill their emptiness and needs. Deliver us from the daily temptations of the flesh and keep us mindful of our surroundings. Lord, let us treat other, like we wish to be treated and let nothing be done out of selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each of us esteem others better than ourselves. Let each of us look out not only for our own interests, but also for the interests of others. Father, let this mind be in us which was also in Christ Jesus, Amen

DO NOT FEAR

Psalm 27:1 “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?”

Fear will keep us from living and moving forward. Fear can stop us from loving again or taking chances.  Fear will keep us from forming a good and sound relationship with God and others.  FEAR is the weapon that the enemy and the oppressors use against us.  Fear brings on worry and anxiety that will make us weak and afraid, so they are able to control our lives.  Fear will creep upon us in a minute, especially the unknown. Things like watching a loved one dying, the potential of losing a job, sickness, or just day-to-day struggles.

Lord, we all struggled with fear and worry at some point. But in time, we began to find that the things that once would have sent us down an anxious spiral, no longer had the same effect. Because, the more we trust God, the more mature we become and the less fear we have. Father, give us Your love and power that will replace our fears and build our trust in You.  Lord, Your love will cast away our fears and give us peace and comfort that only You, can give.  Father, we confess that we forget what we have learned and sometimes we feel all alone, without protection. Lord, let us know this is a lie, let us feel Your overwhelming Spirit in these times of doubt and fear. Lord, we repent of worry and fear, that comes from not trusting You. Father, You did not give us a spirit of fear, so replace our fears with Your power, mercy, and grace, in Jesus name Amen

LORD WE NEED YOUR HELP

Psalm 34:17-20 When the righteous cry for help, the Lord hears and delivers them out of all their troubles. The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but the Lord delivers him out of them all. He keeps all his bones; not one of them is broken.

Dear God, grant us the inspiration, the motivation, the right direction, and the resources to succeed in this lost world. You, are our strongest ally and our best defense, help us stay focused on our goals. Father, join us in this new venture and keep us focused on You, so we will succeed.  Grant us the power of good judgment, give us Your wisdom, knowledge, and guidance; so that we may prosper and do right by us all.  Lord, helps us release whatever is hindering, our blessings from You. Lord, remove any obstacles that keep us from sitting at Your feet. Thank You, Lord, for allowing us to see another day in our right mind, thank You, for Your mercy, grace, and favor, that You show us on a daily basis. Strengthen our faith, and help us with our unbelief. Lord, You know our needs, and our wants, bless us according to our faith and Your will. We don’t know what anyone is going thru, but Lord allows it to pass from them, not of our will, but of Yours.  Thank You, Lord, for bringing us out of our pass and into our future.  Thank You, for not allowing us to become religious fanatics, but inward changed men and women, Lord, we pray for the lost, the sick, the falsely incarcerated, and those that are in need.  In the mighty name of Jesus Amen

REPROGRAM US TO STOP KILLING EACH OTHER

We gotta do something about, our children killing each other.  We March and protest when a cop kills our children. But when our children are being killed by each other nothing is done. Who can or will help us. Where do the Church or our Political leaders, stand on this issue 🤔 What is being done if anything. Janice Parker son was killed, my nephew Patrick Reed, and one other person. All within two weeks 14 shootings. Not to mention those that were wounded.

Lord, please reprogram our children and let them not covet material things. Father, give them a desire for the things of the Spirit and order their steps in righteousness. Lord, stop the abuse and violence hidden in so many homes and families around the world especially the abuse of innocent children.  Lord, help them deal with their anger issues and comfort them. Father, we have heard the weapons and seen the blood of mass shootings and gang violence in cities, towns, and villages across our nation.

PRAY FOR OUR LEADERS

God cares about everything that affects our lives, including who our leaders will be and how our society will be governed. That’s one reason why He commanded us to pray for our government and its leaders.

Lord, Election Day, is over and chaos is still trying to hinder us, but, we know You are still in control.  So, we pray for President and Vice President, give them guidance and protection through these next EIGHT years.  Surround them with Spiritual Soldiers to help them with: Our jobs. Our health care and to get this pandemic under control.  Father, we pray for all our candidates City, States, and Countries.  We Ask You to direct them to uphold justice and care for people in need and all who are vulnerable in our own city, state, country, and world.  Lord, there is so many evil 😈 schemes going on in Your House and this world. Lord, the people have spoken, to give You room to move in the White House 🏠. To cleanse the House and Congress, so America 🇺🇸 can move forward and be prosperous and serve justice ⚖ for all.  Father, our hearts burn with righteous indignation, for the unjust practice against Your people, so we ask You to fix this broken system. Father, if we would follow Your instructions: "look for able men and women from the people, men, and women that fear You, who are trustworthy and hate a bribe, and place such men and women over the people as chiefs of thousands, of hundreds, of the fifties, and of tens. Lord, every great matter they shall bring to You before they act and any small matter they shall decide for themselves. If we do this, You will direct us, we will be able to endure, and our Elected Officials also will go to their place in peace.” So, give us ears that listen to Your voice and give us the strength and courage to do all that You have said, and thank You, for help us chose able two people that fear and love You. Thank You, Lord, for  making Joe and Kamala the heads over the people, in Jesus name Amen

LORD SAVE OUR COUNTRY

Proverbs 26:12 Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him.

Lord, let not arrogant hearted people be the destruction of our country. Let, those that sit in silence, while hate and pride divide the people, be filled with shame.  Give, those with the hearts, to speak up against this chaos and confusion, the power to bring hate down.  Father, this Country is in need of Your intervention. People are dying, the economy is failing, and the Country is divided. Please Lord, Intervene and fix what You, put in place, to govern the people.  Lord, thank You, for showing us how to breathe, in the middle of this Strom and prepare us for what's to come.  Lord, eliminate the stonewalling in the House, that may cause us to lose more lives. Lord, because of insolence in our government, we have nothing but strife, sickness, and death. But, the new team is already replacing science, and the things that were taken out, that hurt our Country. So, thank You, for those who take advice, from those with wisdom, to help us stop the spread of this virus.  Lord, we are Your people, who are called by Your name. Please. LORD, help us, get rid of this ridiculous process that is hindering us from healing the people and our country. Father, we come to You on one accord, please dismantle the hate and chaos in the world 🌎 In Jesus name, Amen

LET'S PRAY FOR OUR CHILDREN

Psalms 78:4  We will not hide them from our children, but tell to the coming generation the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might, and the wonders that he has done."  

We failed our children and their children, if we did not pass The Good News to the next generation.

Father, help us teach our children and our children's, children, the way to go.  Let them hear, You Son's Spirit, so they will be fill with His wisdom and the knowledge to accept Your Word.  So, the years of their lives may be prosperous and many. Lord, Your Word has taught us the way of wisdom; it has led us in the paths of righteousness, help us pass that wisdom on to our children. So, we thank You, for walking 🚶‍♂️ with them and keeping Your hedge of protection around them.  Continue ordering their steps, so they will not be hampered, and if they run, they will not stumble. Lord, give them a strong desire to keep hold of Your, instruction and never let go of their hands. So, they, do not enter the path of the wicked, and do not let them 🚶‍♂️ walk in the way of the evil. Lord, anoint their heads with oil and smoothe their scratches and wounds of their day to day struggles. Father, let those that come in contact with our children, threat them like they wish to be treated, in Jesus name Amen

 

YOU THOUGHT WE WERE WORTH SAVING

1 Cor. 11: 3 But I would have you know that the head of every man is Christ, and the head of the woman is the man, and the head of Christ is God.

The concept of headship does not denote the qualitative or essential differences.  It denotes responsibility and accountability, not superiority.  This does not mean the man should be a chauvinist; it means equality of the sexes in personal worth, but the distinction in function and responsibility.  The whole breakdown of this system God has put in place is that man and woman have turned away from God.  A man that loves God will also love his wife and family.  The same is true for the woman; family unity starts with God.

Lord, we know You are with us, our Rock and shelter; and we take great delight in You. Let Your grace rebuke and correct us, so we can rejoice with You in song 🎵 ❤ as we follow Your instructions. That our men will be the head and not the tail. Lord, restore order in our responsibility and relationship with You and our spouse.  Thank You for always watching over us, our mighty Warrior who saves. Thank You for Your kindness to us beyond what is due. Thank You for helping us be still and have peace when so much chaos and confusion around us. So, we praise You for Your comfort and protection.  Lord, open our hearts and minds to You as we study 📖 Your Word and sit in Your presence.  Give us the wisdom to stay focused on You and the knowledge to implement You in everything we do. So, we will have perfect peace, in Jesus name Amen 

LORD YOU ARE AWESOME

Isaiah 63:7 will recount the steadfast love of the Lord, the praises of the Lord, according to all that the Lord has granted us, and the great goodness to the house of Israel that he has granted them according to his compassion, according to the abundance of his steadfast love.

We give thanks to You, O Lord and we stand in awe of You, for we are wonderfully made.  Marvelous are Your works in us!  Thank You, that You uniquely designed and created us, with the same care and precision; You used in creating the universe.  Thank You that You formed us in love exactly to Your specifications.  You, embroidered us with great skills, in our mother’s womb. We are grateful that our appearance, abilities, and personality, are like a special picture frame. In which, You, can portray Your grace, beauty, love, strength, and faithfulness, through.  We rejoice that You, have gifted us for Your, special purpose. It’s wonderful to know that, You, are not the least bit dissatisfied with our inborn talents, intelligence, aptitudes, appearance, and personality, for your hands have made and fashioned us.  We worship and bow down; to honor Your name and say thank you Lord for all You do.  Amen

HE WILL RESTORE US

When people are connected to God by faith thy look better, thy work harder, thy love more, and their blessings will overflow. "When we have been raised with Christ, we will seek the things that are of the Spirit where Christ dwells. We will keep our minds on things that are above, that renew and regenerate; not on things that are on earth. For we have died, and our lives are hidden with Christ in God. Our love and faith in God will put to death all that's earthly in us: sexual immorality, impurity, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, hate, back-bitting, envy and jealousy." When we are connected to Him, we can live with peace, love, and unity.

Father, baptize our souls, and all that is within us, we bless Your holy name! Bless the Lord, O our souls, and forget not all His benefits, who forgives all our iniquity, who heals all our diseases, who redeems our lives from the pit, who crowns us with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies us with good so that our youth is renewed like the eagle's. Thank You, Lord, for saving us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to Your own mercy.  So let us not lose heart, although our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. So, give us a strong desire for Your Word and help us understand. So, we can implement You in our daily lives and let nothing rob us of our peace, in Jesus name Amen 

LORD I PLEAD THE BLOOD OVER YOUR PEOPLE

The blood of Jesus is our defense. It declares we are not guilty but free from all penalties of sin. The blood also gives us the authority and dominion to resist Satan and put him out of all our lives and families affairs.

Father, I plead the Blood of Jesus over all the homeless people, especially the children, for all broken families, including mine, for all who are unemployed, for all the women and children who are alone without any help, for all the sick people who are suffering, for all the seniors who are ill and alone, for all the people who are affected by wars, natural disasters, and hate crimes, for all the broken marriages and relationships, and all the victims of various circumstances. Lord, I pray for all the poor people around the world, for all the Job operating companies who have been hurt by technology and larger companies. Father, I decree and declare the blood of Jesus to cleanse us of our sins so that we might be healed and our prayers will be answered without any hindrances. Father, let the precious Blood of Jesus Christ protect us from all evil and enemies. Father, I pray for guidance, strength, hope, comfort, healing (Spiritual, physical, and emotional), PEACE, prosperity, and justice for my son and all who have been treated unjustly. Father, we cry out to You, in the Name of Jesus, baptize us in the Holy Spirit so Your plans and purposes for our lives and our family come to pass. Lord, I pray that You will have mercy on us and deliver each of us in our times of trouble, according to Your will. I surrender all the above to You and myself, knowing we will be safe in Your hands. In Jesus' name, Amen.

KNOWING THE SPIRITUAL TRUTH

John 16:13 When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth, for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come.

When Jesus said " I will destroy my sanctuary, then I will rebuild it in three days" I will rebuild this temple in three days, He meant, His body, but the only temple they thought about, was Herod's temple. We can't understand His wisdom and knowledge, if we study without the Holy Spirit, because,  we will lean on our own understanding when we walk alone. Like the Jews, some of us can't understand the Word, because we are looking for material things and Christ only move in Spirit. When we know the Spiritual truth, we will think in Spirit, instead of the flesh.  We will equate everything to Him, then what we have learned will make sense. But, there will be those that know but choose to live in darkness, we can identify them by the content of their character.

Lord, let us not wait for Your return to become Disciples. We want to know You now.  Father,  You are the source of our compassion and mercy, help us be submissive to You. GOD, give us eyes that see and remove indifference from our hearts 💕 so we may have a renewed heart and Spirit.  Father, transform our lives and give us the Spiritual truth to accomplish our purpose. Lord,  anoint us with Your Spirit love so that we can tell the world 🌎 the good news. The news that mends the brokenhearted, and proclaims release to the sinfully captive. Lord, fill us with an urgency and commitment to our studies, worship, and our prayer lives.  Lord, thank You for mercy, grace, and favor, and let us pass Your blessing to others. In Jesus name, we pray Amen 

PETITION TO HIM IN HIS WORD

If we want to draw near to God, what better way than through His word.  When we pray in God's word, we are also praying for His will.

1Jn 1:9.............Forgive us for our sins, and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

THE WORD

The Word of God is powerful and they come with privileges. Words like I Am, Follow Me, Be still and know I am God, just to name a few. Now what makes these words powerful, "He said them" and how do we know they come with privileges, because "He promised us they would".

Father, let Your Word, mold and guide us to living a righteous life.  Lord, gives us the tools we need to, follow Your teachings and help us become more like You.  Lord, let Your light shine through us, for the lost to see and let the words of our mouth be pleasing to You. Lord, Your Word, are living and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword. Piercing even to the division of our souls, spirits, joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.  Lord, let us re-engage us in a righteous life, realign us with Your will, and remind us daily what we have learned. Lord, regenerate our passion for the things of the Spirit and reinvent our attitudes and behavior, so we can become more like You. So, we can know Your goodness, wisdom, and knowledge to practice what we have learned. Lord, You are at hand; we will not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let our requests be made known to You. Father, let Your, peace, which surpasses all understanding guard our hearts and our minds in Christ. Amen

LET US NOT BACKSLIDE

Hebrews 6:4-6 For it is impossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance, since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt. 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

Father, we understand that there will be ups, downs, and unexpected turns in our walk with Christ, Lord, please hold our hands and let us not stumble on Your path. Lord, baptize us in the Holy Spirit, so we will not think about our undesirable ways.  Father, let us not forget to pray, study the Word, or fellowship with other believers to help us not backslide.  Lord, order our steps in Your will, so we do not deliberately indulge in a life of sinful pleasures, but focus on the things of the spirit. Father, help us understand that our backsliding will also sadden and bring grief to our loved ones, as well as turmoil in our lives.  Lord, let our guilt and Your Word give us conviction, correction, and guidance so we can stand on Your Word without wavering. So, right now Lord, we ask for Your strength and courage to be: submissive to Your will, to study and understand the Word. Father, give us ears to hear Your voice and the patience to be still and listen. Lord, help us be mindful and always show gratitude, for Your greatness in our lives, in Jesus name Amen 🙏

GET TO KNOW GOD

Stressful situations without God, will make us weak. It is the Spirit that brings us back to life, gives us strength and refresh our Souls.  Through our studies, His favor, faith, and by His grace. He restoreth us to the Father, and our inheritance of the Kingdom. So, keep praying and don't lose heart "God acts on behalf of those who wait for His instruction. So, let the challenges of life and our faith in Him, transform us and bring us victory. 

Our prayer is: that You help us see that trusting in You, the living, sovereign, personal God, is the most practical, time-proven way to deal with stress in our lives. Father, help us understand that trusting in You, does not insulate us from the roller coaster life and emotions, that hit when we face stressful situations.  Help us, lean on You not our own understanding, to help us remain perfectly calm in the midst of the worst of trials.  Lord, we want to know You, in a personal, practical, and deep way before we get into a crisis. Lord, You are our refuge and shelter; You are righteous and will judge righteously. You are our rock of strength, when we are weak; You hear and answer our prayers. Lord, You are our stronghold and fortress in our day to day struggles, our source of courage. Thank You, for being the God of truth and faithfulness, eventhough we are not worthy.  Lord, please grant us peace of mind and calm our troubled hearts. Right now, Lord, someones soul is like a turbulent sea and they. can't seem to find their balance.  Give them guidance and protection, as You provide peace through their storm.  Lord, give us the strength and clarity of mind to find and serve our purpose, in Jesus name Amen

WHEN WE TAKE GOD OUT

Christians that study the Word should understand the consequences of compromising Gods Word.  Throughout Bible history every time God’s Word/Laws were compromised destruction came.  The Old Testament explains how the Pharisees made perversions to God’s Laws as they added their own traditions to it.  This is one reasons Jesus was so upset as He cleansed the temple courtyard.  They were using the temple for everything, but what it was designed for (just as we are using the Churches of today).  The Old Testament is full of events of destruction after society and the government saw fit to compromises God’s Word,  for popularity or society approval.   We use to allow prayer in schools, but once we removed God the devil stepped in, now there are more killings in schools than it is in prison.  Maybe it’s because we allow prayer and Bible reading anytime or anywhere in prison.  Everything that is happening in today’s world is already written in the Bible, you would think that our Spiritual Leaders and government would step in and at least try to define the Word of God.  Are has Satan gotten that strong in our lives we can’t see how much compromising God’s Word is destroying this country and the people.

Father, forgive us for being prideful, jealous, and unforgiving people, filled with hate. Forgive for turning a blind eye to those in need, only to fill our fleshly ways.  Forgive us, Lord, for not teaching Your Word from generation to generation and losing, so many of Your children. Father, everything in Your Word, has come to pass "Whenever I hold back the rain or send locusts to eat up the crops or send an epidemic on my people, if they pray to me and repent and turn away from the evil they have been doing, then I will hear them in heaven, forgive their sins, and make their land prosperous" Father, give us Your strength, wisdom, and the knowledge to implement You in everything we do.  Father, we repent of our sins, please, prune our Fruit, so we will desire the thing's of the Spirit.  Lord, we shout out to You, let Your eyes be open, and Your ears attent unto the prayer that is made in this place. In Jesus name Amen 

REMOVE ALL THAT IS NOT OF YOU

Take out Color and we have Human Beings.  Take out Hate and we only have love.  Take out I and we only have we, take out unforgiveness and we have peace. Take out pride and greed and we are humble.  Take out all that's evil and we have Christ.

God never take out anything we need, He will only remove what's not of Him, if we ask Him too. The Simple things that divide us are not as powerful as the one thing that hold us together, The Holy Spirit.

Father, the Word tells us "when the righteous increase, the people rejoice,  but when the wicked rule, the people groan" Lord, we are groaning and we are all being affected by what's happening in our world today.  Lord, You said if someone does not know how to manage their own household, how will they care for us.  Father, let not the roaring lion rush us like a bear, the wicked ruler of the poor people. Father, we ask that You take out the hate and chaos in the world right now in the Holy name of Jesus. Lord, take out all that use their power to oppress others. Take out those that do nothing for the least of us. Lord, take out those that govern with a racist and greedy heart and replace them with men and women of Your understanding, and love for all people.  Father, restore order to this world, Intervene in our government, and the people in Jesus name Amen 

FULLY AND FOREVER REDEEMED

Ephesians 1:7 In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace,

Lord, soon as we believe, Your Holy Spirit will come upon us, then we are sealed.  Thank You, God the Father, for giving us the same inheritance to Your Kingdom, as Christ.  So, search our Souls cleanse us from all that not of You, so we can be purified and reconciled. Lord, thank You, for Your sacrifice, that has released us from the bondage of sin, and corruption; so we may have Your peace here on earth. Help us get in right moral standards, so we can enjoy the life You, planned for us.  God the Son, fill us with Your Spirit, so we can become more like You, bringing honor to our Father.  So, lead us in thy truth, and teach us: for thou art the God of our salvation; on thee do we rest all the day.  Thank You, for remembering not the sins of our youth, nor our transgressions, thank You for reaching down in the pit of darkness and saving us.  In You, Lord, we have redemption through Your blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of our Father's grace.  Father, help us be filled with that same strength of forgiveness.  Lord, we have been crucified with You and we no longer live, but You, God the Son, lives in us. AMEN

                 

WITHOUT GOD WE LABOR IN VAIN

Hebrews 6:10 says "For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister"

We are created in the image of God and are designed to experience success and fulfillment through hard work! As Believers, we should view our work as an opportunity to serve God through perseverance, patience, and serve others; through a Christ-like attitude and our blessings. Now, in the midst of all that's happening, don't ever lose focus of God, because of our labor.  Don't forget it's through His power and our labor that we: purchased the new car, the new home, the promotion, the healing. We did all this through God, who strengthen us.

Father, help us understand, unless You, build the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless You, watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain. Lord, help us remember that nothing is done in our lives without, You. Give us eyes that see You in everything, so we do not take credit for Your work and let us not be blinded by our labor. So, therefore, brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move us. Always give of ourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because we know that our labor in the Lord is not in vain. Thank You, Lord, for giving us ears to hear and understand the Word of truth, about our salvation through our faith and labour.  Thank You, for helping us receive Your Spirit as a sign we have been restored to our Father. Thank You, that we will be kept safe by Your, hedge of protection and our Guardian Angels, until the time of Your return, in Jesus name Amen
