Heavenly Father, may we continually remember and pray for the work of our fellow believers that is produced by their faith in Jesus, their labor that is prompted by love, and their endurance that is inspired by the hope they have in the Lord Jesus Christ. I think of the members my wife and I have on Cross Roads Fellowship and other sites that I am a member of,and how grateful we are for the love and fellowship we enjoy with our brothers and sisters who serve You all throughout the world. We lift up those who are presently enduring matters that weigh heavy on their hearts. May the hope they have in the Lord Jesus Christ inspire confidence that You will give them victory as they stand firm in You. In the Mighty Name of Jesus. Amen.

Heavenly Father, as we live in a time of great turmoil. Lord, help us to be watchman, ever watchful and always prayerful as we see the foundations of our Christian faith attacked. Through the power of Your Spirit we want to take a firm position against the enemy and be strong in our faith. Lord Jesus, We stand with our Christian brothers and sisters all over the world who are going through the same kind of struggles, and some much, much worse, and especially pray for those who are paying a great price for their uncompromising stand. You assure us that after we suffer for a little while, You will restore, support, strengthen and sustain us as we remain firm on Your foundation. In the mighty name of Jesus we praise and pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, what promises I have in You. Lord, when I surrendered my life to Christ and allowed Him to be my Lord and Savior, I now have the promise of spending eternity with You. Praise the Lamb of God!! Jesus, help every believer to understand that You, our King have gone through every temptation that we will go through and came out victorious every time. Jesus, You the Lamb of God stood the test. Help us Lord, stand the tests when the enemy comes to brings us down. Help us to read and memorize scripture and to be quick to speak Your word in boldness and authority when those attacks come. May we always remember to say and do everything that is pleasing to You so that we will be Your light in this dying world. Jesus, we give You all the honor and glory and we pray this in Your name. Amen. Heavenly Father, these verses keep ringing in my head this morning. “He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities.” “Who, His own self, bore our sins in His own body on the tree. ” “Christ also has loved us and has given Himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God, for a sweet smelling savor.” “The blood of Jesus Christ, His Son, cleanses us from all sin.” Praise Jesus!! Lord, our faith rests in the finished work of Jesus at Calvary. Because of His tremendous sacrifice our sins are forgiven and a place is reserved for us in heaven. We also find rest from our unending troubles in this life as we respond to Jesus’ invitation: “Come to Me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest.” Help us to look to You for needed strength and an overcoming spirit as we daily encounter challenges and ongoing burdens. Our burdens can be lifted at Calvary for that is where Jesus bore not only our sins but also our sorrows. Praise be to You, our Father in heaven, who daily bears our burdens. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, I love You with all my heart soul and mind. Lord, I want to walk in the wisdom of Your Holy Word as I make choices this day since the choices I will make tomorrow reflect the choices of today. You’ve given me the freedom to choose but You’ve also given me the wisdom and insight to know that the weight of those decisions bring about good or bad. May my actions not be based on man’s changing words or the standards of my brothers and sisters, for I know we are frail and subject to faulty thinking. I want the standards of the unchanging, living Holy Word to be an anchor for my soul judging the thoughts and attitudes of my heart so that I will stay the course for which You have called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. And help me to be watchful for those who are veering off course so that I can encourage them in the faith and be prayerful for their wandering souls. In the name Jesus I pray. Amen. Heavenly Father, I am very aware that I am going to go through hardships. Some will be mild while others may seem to be very hard. Because of my trust in You, I know there isn’t one that I will face alone. For in my weakness You are made strong, in my folly You are the God of infinite wisdom, and in my fear I take hold of the hope You offer to me which is firm and secure. You will not abandon the work of Your hands but fulfill Your purpose for me as You strengthen, sustain, and instruct me during times of testing. I praise You Lord Jesus! I do not want to become lazy, but to imitate those who through faith and patience inherit what has been promised. Lord, keep me faithful to the end. In Jesus mighty name I pray, Amen. Heavenly Father, I think about paths I have taken. There have been times that path seemed strait and narrow. Other times it was a downhill battle. Lord, other times when the incline was so steep it forced me on all fours, but Lord, that’s a posture in which I’m most humbled. It forced me to kneel down before You, the Lord my Maker. Halleluiah! Your strength is perfect when my strength is fleeting. It is a place where I realize it is no longer my strength but it is in Your perfect strength that I walk. It is no longer my plan but Your perfect plan that I follow. It is no longer my wisdom but Your perfect wisdom that instructs me. You give perfect direction and adequate strength to walk the upward path that leads to life everlasting. Thank You that I will never walk the path of life alone, for You lead the way as You make my feet like hind’s feet on high places. Jesus, You are my Lord and my Savior and I praise Your name. I also pray this prayer in Your precious name. Amen. Heavenly Father, I long to meet You when that day comes that I take my last breath on earth and enter into Your gates. But Lord while I am here on earth, me and my house will serve You Lord. I choose the way of truth, for it is also the way of light, for Jesus Himself said, “I am the Light.” The Word declares that you hate “a lying tongue”. Darkness lurks where deception and falsehood exists and becomes the breeding ground for all sorts of evil. Father, I ask You to shine Your searchlight on the contents of my heart and reveal the motive for my actions. Help me to purge all that dishonors Your name. I invite Your light to dispel the darkness of my soul. In the mighty name of Jesus I pray Amen. Heavenly Father, we live in a world where it seems like people everywhere are turning away from You and living more like the world and clinging to the principles of this dying world. Lord I am thankful and praise You that I am part of Your family who have the indwelling Holy Spirit and who desires to continue to build our lives on the foundation of our holy faith as we spread the gospel message, “Jesus is the first and final answer to all of life’s problems.” Lord, We seek to be directed by Your Spirit and live in such a way that we honor You even as scoffers ridicule us. May we show mercy to those whose faith is wavering and rescue others by snatching them from the flames of judgment. In the process of daily living, as we reach out to the lost and dying, help us not to stumble so that on Your appointed day we will be brought into Your glorious presence innocent of sin. Lord we thank You and pray this in the mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savoir. Amen Heavenly Father, I am so thankful to You that here in America our family roots are not the sole source of who we are, nor does it dictate what we can accomplish. Lord, as we spend more and more time with You, our spiritual roots grow. Lord as we grow from a diet of milk to chewing on the meat of Your Word, we become well-grounded in faith in You and it goes much deeper and spreads much broader. Lord I pray for those in this world whom are just holding on to their faith, that it increases. I know that because of my faith in You and Your Word and because of the power in prayer, that you have helped me overcome many obstacles in my past. Lord, trials are going to come to us all. Lord, from what I see and hear the attacks from the enemy are getting stronger and more often within the body. Let us cling to that faith. Let us remember that you overcame the devil and we can also, in the name of Jesus. Though the winds and storms may shake us from time to time. It is in You that we live and move and have our being. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. |
