Let your word come alive in me and be the light and lamp I need to see the path of your will clearly. 

Thank you for your word.  Thank you for the truth that both keeps us righteous and sets us free.  Lord, I pray that your word would clarify my direction and my opinions.  Speak to me clearly, Lord.  Let my thoughts be formed around an accurate interpretation of the principles of your word.  Forgive my attempts to prove my point by finding some turn of phrase in Scripture.  Teach me the truth and give me the courage to walk in it. Cause me to study with an open heart and not be ashamed of the things I believe.  Help me to rightly divide the word of truth so I will not be a workman who is ashamed. 

Holy Spirit, you are the author and divine inspiration – the very breath of God that carries the spoken word.  Be my teacher.  Be my private tutor.  Show me your truth.  Increase my knowledge and enlighten it with revelation and understanding.

Lord, you said if anyone lacked wisdom to ask you and you would not upbraid or scold us for asking.  I’m asking sincerely.  I need wisdom.  I need this mess sorted out.  I need to know what is right.  I need to know what pleases you.  I need your word to be the light and lamp that you’ve promised it would be.

Oh God, yours is the only opinion that matters.  I don’t want to take a side in a debate – I want to be on your side.  Let your truth bring unity and peace.  Oh God, step in and speak peace.  

Flow through me, Lord.  Pray through me, Holy Spirit.  Stir my heart and fine tune my hears to what you’re speaking.  Let me be your voice in prayer today.  Use me to proclaim your will and your kingdom reign.  Pray through me, Holy Spirit.

O Lamb of God, I worship you.  Thank you for laying down your life for me.  You have bought my life with your blood, and I give you full title deed.  I am yours.  I lay all that I am at the foot of the cross.  The only hope I know in death is your resurrection.  I choose to step into new life with you.  Thank you that I walk now in eternal life.  My life is in you, Lord.  Thank you for life.  I choose the abundant life that lays beyond the cross.  I love you.

Lord, on this day that we remember your sorrow and your passion, help us to feel the price you paid and appreciate your sacrifice as we hold on to the hope of your resurrection.  As we taste the bitter herbs and salty tears of Passover, remind us that though weeping may endure for the night – Your joy comes with the morning of new mercy and resurrection to new life. 

Father, let this truly be the season of resurrection.  Father, I pray for new life to come to those who have been dormant and cold.  Raise up those who have been hibernating in their spirits.  Awake your children, your Church, and your Kingdom to this new season of abundant life.  Stir a great revival and renewal in us.  Let a springtime revival burst forth and blossom here. 

Open the graves of dreams and callings that have died within us.  Resurrect our passion to do the things that we have set aside in discouragement and neglected in distraction.  Renew our purpose and zeal for your will.  Break though the barriers of seasons past.  I speak life to forgotten dreams and visions.  I speak life to neglected words of prophecy that have lain in the dust.  This is the hour of your power.  This is the hour of your resurrection in us.  Arise in us and do your will and work through us. 

Be alive in me.  Live your life through me.  I place my life on the cross next to yours.  I lay down in the grave next to you.  I step forth from that tomb with your life inside of me.  It is no longer I that live, but Christ that lives inside me.  For your glory.  For your purpose.  Live in me. 

Holy Spirit, we ask for deep and clear revelation and understanding of all that was accomplished in the death and resurrection of our Savior and Lord.  We stand in awe at what you were willing to do for us. 

Help us to walk in worthiness and respect of your sacrifice.  Qualify us to be worthy.  Cleanse us and bring us into right-standing.  

Draw and direct us into the place where we can walk in all that you’ve intended for us.  Position us in the portals of heaven and your kingdom where we can participate in your reign.  Draw us.  Direct us.  Position us strategically.  Put us in the right place at the right time.  Help us to not miss one divine appointment. 

Lord, I pray for a flood of your love and the fruit of loving kindness to saturate your people.  Bring us into unity.  Take us beyond tolerating one another and teach us to love unconditionally.  Cause the “brethren to dwell together in unity.”

Remove every hindrance that separates us from you and your healing touch.  Come in like a flood and heal us. 

We are grateful for all that you have prepared for us.  Help us to access those treasures.  Lord, let faith and tenacity arise in your people to press in and receive all the benefits of the death and resurrection. 

We need a fresh breath of your spirit like a spring breeze – to fill us the high octane energy and love.  Let your church inhale a full and fresh breath of your spirit.

In Jesus’ name we pray in agreement. 

Roaring against frustrations!

Lion of Judah roar through me. Barriers of frustration I roar against you in Jesus’ name. YOU MUST COME DOWN!! Doubt and discouragement, I roar against you in Jesus’ name. GET OUT NOW. LEAVE MY MIND. LEAVE MY SPIRIT. FLEE BEFORE THE NAME OF JESUS!

Let the roar of the Lion of Judah vibrate the gates of the enemy until they are shaken down and crumble.

I push back the borders of the kingdom of darkness. I set a fortress and strong tower for this new ministry and claim this area for the Kingdom of Light. I proclaim that Jesus Christ is King of Kings and Lord of Lords here and now. SO BE IT IN JESUS’ NAME.

Lord, I thank you for the privilege of using the name of Jesus. Thank you for investing that power and responsibility in your children.

Jesus, I worship you. I worship your greatness, your power, the fear and awe that you wield over your enemies. You are the Lion and the Lamb. You are the strong and fierce and the meek and gentle. I worship you my King. Holy is your name.

I submit to you and know that the enemy is fleeing from me right now in Jesus’ name. Cover me and protect me.

I call for these barriers before me to crumble and fall at the name of Jesus. I call for an open heaven. Show us your glory. Give us the knowledge that we lack. Educate us. Fill us with focus, faith and resolve. Show us Lord, when to walk on water and when to part the sea.

Father, we pray for answers and direction. Clarify the next step. You are the light and the lamp and we depend on you. Order the steps of the righteous and keep our foot from faltering.

Thank you for the breakthrough. Thank you for victory in each battle.

Lion of Judah, roar through me.

"Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward." Gen 15:1 NKJV

Be our shield.  Be our strong tower.  Be our defender and raise up a standard against the enemy of your intercessors.  Protect, keep and bless those who labor in prayer.  Be our shield and our exceeding great reward.  In the name of Jesus’ we cancel every plot, destroy every weapon and quench every dart hurled by the enemy against us.  We bind doubt and fear and loose a divine gift of faith upon your prayer warriors.  Be our strength and provision.

Unfold your plan before us.  Help us to see the path that you’ve laid and walk it in faith.  Show us your ways O Lord, teach us your paths.  Lead us in your truth and teach us.  You are the God of our salvation and we wait on you. (ps 25) 

Thank you for the power and privilege of prayer.  Thank you for giving the power to change the world into the hands of the meek and faithful who pray your will.  You are an awesome God.

Be God to us and through us today. 

Father, we pray for those who labor in cancer research.  Lord, reveal the source.  Reveal the solution.  Give them the keys to unlock the doors of healing.  Father, we take authority over greed and misuse of finances throughout the research and development and pharmaceutical arenas.  Put the answers in the hands of those who have your heart beat and those who will hear the cries of the suffering.  Lord, your word declares that you take down and raise up kings according to your purpose.  Father, we ask that you remove the pharmaceutical kings who misuse their authority and place these empires in the hands of your servants.  Be the King of Kings in this realm also.  Rule and reign here in this industry.  Father, raise up your servants and equip them with the business skills and political favor to accomplish your purposes.  Lord, remove all the corruption and greed and misuse of power in this arena.  Sweep it clean.  Blow away the chaff by the breath of judgment and righteousness.  Have your will and your way.

Touch us and heal us, Lord.  In Jesus’ name we pray.

Lord, I humble myself before you this morning.  I submit myself to your control.  I answer the call of intercessor.  Use me, Lord.  My life is laid at your feet – this is my priority.  Nothing I have scheduled today, nothing I have to do – no project or responsibility or duty or assignment – is more important than being in your presence, knowing your heart, and speaking out your will through prayer. 

Holy Spirit lead me in prayer.  Accomplish the will of the Father through me.  Enhance my faith.  Help me to believe for great things.  Let your kingdom come and your will be done on earth- in my life, in my home, in my ministry, in my marriage, in my family, in my church, in my community, in my city, in my county, in my state, in my country, in my world – as it is in heaven.  I declare that Jesus Christ is King of Kings and Lord of Lords here and now.  Let your kingdom come.  Reign here, o Holy King of Kings. 

With my whole heart I will seek you.  I press into your presence.  I lean into your embrace.  I long to hear your thoughts and your heart beat. 

Lord, I pray for Egypt today.  Unmask our enemies.  Reveal the secrets whispered against us.  Disarm the weapons formed against your people.  Remember and protect your children within their borders.  In the name of Jesus’ I loose the legions of heavenly hosts to accomplish your will in Egypt.  Shut the gate of hell that has opened there.  Lord, do a clean sweep through their government and remove everything and everyone that hinders your will.  Let the fear of the Lord God Jehovah come upon this nation, and turn their hearts to you.  Reveal the true intent of their actions.  Lead us in knowing who to trust.

In Jesus’ name I pray. 

Thank you, Lord, that I’m healthy enough again to have a busy schedule.   I thank you for each project that I’m working on.  It feels so good to be working again.  Thank you for using me.  Thank you for choosing me.  Thank you for each gift and talent you’ve invested in me.

Lord, I release your kingdom power and reign to intervene and make the changes necessary to accomplish your will for this country.  Take the mask off the evil things that parade as politically correct.  Expose the lies of homosexuality.  Expose the deception and remove the façade of acceptableness. Cleanse and deliver us from evil.  In the name of Jesus’ I take authority over lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life – in my life, in my family, in my church, in my community, in my state, in my country.  Cleanse us from sin.  Cause us to be a righteous and loving people.  Love the sinner through us and draw them into the kingdom.  Help us to trust in your grace, mercy, and ability to change the sinner into a saint. 

Show us how your church should respond to this culture.  Help us to do it right and to please you.  Put the right words in our mouth.  Set the right vision before us.  Keep us so close to you that you can express yourself to the world through us.  Shine through us.  Love through us.  Use us as your arms to embrace the lost and suffering.

I have a long journey ahead of me today.  Lord, let my first destination be your throne room.  I don’t want to go anywhere else until I’ve been there with You.  You are home to me.  Your embrace is where I belong.  I love you.  I long for you. 

Father, wash me in the blood of the Lamb.  Cleanse me from every sin and failure.  Strengthen my weakness and heal my wounds.  Make me complete and whole in you.  Sweep away the self and the shame and any fragments of evil that may remain.  Make me Holy as you are. Let me be absorbed into your perfection. 

Lord, you are beautiful.   I worship you with every fiber of my being.  I surrender my life in worship.  I lay the very essence of who I am at your feet.  I pour out my life as a drink offering.  I am yours.  All of me.  Completely. 

Holy Spirit, I yield myself to you as intercessor and ask you to speak through me the words of intercession that will set the captives free.  Lord, let your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.  Reign here.  Reign over my life, my time, my strength, my health, my family, my marriage, my church, my home, my community – reign as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.  Be master of my universe. 

In the name of Jesus’ I take authority over the lies that the enemy has pressed upon your people.  I take authority over shame and despair.  I take authority over hopelessness and grief.  I drive away the clouds of doubt and unbelief.   I banish the propaganda of defeat and sorrow.  I declare that Jesus Christ has conquered death, hell, and the grave – and nothing can stand against his name and the power of his people to speak forth the salvation of the lord.

I take authority over the bondage of indebtedness in this country.  In the name of Jesus – I declare financial freedom over this country.  I loose the economy of heaven over this land.  Let your kingdom reign here and your economy swallow up every debt and poverty at its core.  I bind corruption and unethical practices within our government.  Cleanse our government lord, and let truth and righteousness be the order of the day.  Begin a season of housekeeping and remove the trash.  Sweep away the self-serving and greedy people in our government and replace them with those who will truly serve the people – with those who will be your hand extended to care for us and this land.

In the name of Jesus’ I declare our boarders closed to evil and threats.  I call for a heavenly vanguard to watch over our boarders – evil will not enter here!  Products that destroy our economy and our health you are forbidden to cross any more.  Enemies of our land – you will not enter!  Our boarders are sealed against you in Jesus’ name.  I release the protection of the sword of the Lord.  Supernaturally intervene and cause our enemies to fall at your feet.  Do what governments of earth cannot do.  Sword of the Lord, be our protector.

Be a shield about every force for good in this earth.  Those armies that stand for right – bless and protect them.  Bring them victory over evil and those who oppose your purpose.  Lead them to the source and the resources of the enemy camps and bring them swift victories.  Protect our troops.  Use them for your purposes. 

Father, be the loving embrace to the fatherless in our land.  Lord, I pray for the weak and the vulnerable.  I pray for the children and the feeble.  Care for them.  Meet their needs in body, soul, and spirit. Defend those who have no voice and no advocate.  Help them as only you can.  Send them aid.  Direct your resources where they are needed most. 

Lord, you see every crisis that lay ahead of us.  Look ahead and provide as only you can.  Be our loving God – I release your divine protection and care.  I call upon the resources of heaven.  Feed the hungry, house the homeless.  Be a shelter for all who are lost.

Lord, I pray for my family and my church.  Help us to discern your voice and your will.  You promised us that your sheep would know your voice and another’s voice we would not follow.  Help us to hear only you.  Silence the distractions and the self-serving static.  Fine tune our ears to hear only your voice.  Give us the courage to do what is right.  Cement the resolve in our hearts and minds to do only the things that please you.

Forgive our sins and shortcomings.  Cleanse us from all unrighteousness and stamp your holiness to shape us at our core.  Be the center. 

Make the work of our hands fruitful.  Bless all that we have, all that we do, and all that we are.  Help us to work smart.  Keep us from wasting effort and resources.  Bless the work of our hands. 

Father, I pray that you would order the remodeling project in the sanctuary.  Provide the resources, material and labor to get it finished by Easter.  Beautify the sanctuary with your presence.  Let the work go easily and quickly. 

Lord, I pray that the website and internet church would be up and running quickly.  Lord, help us to launch the website by the end of this month.  Lord, I pray that our internet church would be thriving and healthy before the end of the year. 

Father, help me to accomplish the personal goals that you’ve set before my ministry.  Bless me as I lead this small group.  I pray that every member will be totally and completely sold-out to serving only you all the days of their life.  Bless my Sunday School class.  Help me to plant a love for your word, and your house in the hearts of these children.  Lord, help them to know you.  I claim every soul under my care for the kingdom of light. 

Holy Spirit, pour through me the books and teaching outlines that you desire for your purpose and glory.  Use me as your scribe and to teach your revealed knowledge and will to your church and to those who walk in darkness.  Shine your light through me.

Lord, establish me as a teacher and an author.  Refine my words and let your voice be heard through mine.  Use me for your glory and to further your kingdom purposes.  Help me to go so deep into your presence that I am filled with your knowledge and know the secret revelations that you have hidden for me to find.  I seek those treasured gifts that you have laid up for me.  impart understanding.  Clarify knowledge.  Apply wisdom.  Flow through me.  In Jesus’ name.

Let truth break through the confusion, Lord.  I long to know the truth.  “Show me your ways o Lord, teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me.  For you are the God of my salvation, on you I will wait all the day.” Ps 25

“There is no shadow of turning in you.”  What does that mean?  As an artist I can’t imagine something without shadow – light that is not defined by darkness.  You are a mystery.  You shine with or without other things around to compare you to or to define and contrast you.  You are beautiful beyond description.  I love you.

As I press into your presence, embrace and envelop me.  Absorb me into you until I am no longer me – just part of you.  Fill me with your presence and love. 

Wash away all the selfish and self-centered parts of me that separate and distinguish me from you.  Lord, I long to be one with you.  Cleanse me.  remove anything that is not like you.  Take me deeper than I’ve ever been.  Plunge me in so close to your heart that I will be stuck there – and never come out.  Unleash the power within me to draw close to you.  Release me from these carnal confines and show me how to walk in the spirit every moment of my life.  Break through in truth.  Don’t let me be deceived or follow the voice of another.  I am your sheep.  I want to follow only your voice.  Lead me in your truth and teach me.  take me to new places in you that I’ve never been before.  I want to go deeper in you.

Lord, shine through me and draw others to you.  Let your light shine in my eyes.  Let me see from your perspective, show me how you love.  Show me truth.   

I’m here.  Just to be with you.  Nothing that is scheduled for today is more important than this time with you.  You are my source of strength and peace.  Let your presence remain the center of my universe. 

You are the only one who is worthy of praise and honor and glory.  There is none like you.  I empty out every ounce of adoration that I can muster and pour it at your feet.  Thank you for being God to me.  Thank you for knowing me and being so aware and involved and personally invested in my life.  I’m amazed that you know my name.  I am humbled that my name is written in your hand.  (wow – is it like a tattoo?  What a thought!)

Lord, I invite you to be in control of every project on my plate.  Take over God.  Be chairman of every committee, CEO of every enterprise, bank-roller, director, producer, and energy source.  Take over. 

Lord, I know this vision of an internet church is from you.  It’s so much bigger than my abilities – it has to be you.  Teach us.  Equip us.  Provide.  Lord, I don’t have the skill set to make it happen.  I’m stepping into the water with the expectation that somehow you will make a way.  Show me.  Give me the next step and the courage to take it.  Father, send workers along side.  Raise the level of our abilities and fill us with the know-how to get started.  Lord, we want to do your work and your will with excellence.  But right now it feels like we don’t even know how to color in the lines.  Come Lord Jesus.  Come Holy Spirit.  Be our teacher.  Lead us in the right direction. 

In the name of Jesus I set before my eyes the vision of this ministry fully functionally and accomplishing all that God has intended.  I fix my sight on the goal.

Thank you for progress.  Thank you for answered prayer.  Thank you for opening heaven’s answer channel and equipping me to hear. 

Lord, you are good and your mercy endures forever.  I so appreciate that you are a good God.  I can’t image the horror of serving a God who wasn’t good.  I love and respect who you are.  I truly desire to know you more.

Holy Spirit, I yield myself to you as your instrument of intercession.  Use me now to make a difference.  Let me be pleasing in your sight and my prayers a fragrant offering.  Show me how to be effective.  Fill me with faith to move mountains.

Jesus, I agree with your prayer for unity within and among your people.  I know it is your desire.  Make us one in you.  Let forgiveness flow and heal our wounds and offences.  Let truth blast away every bondage and lie of the enemy that has ensnared and hobbled us.  Show us how to strengthen and empower each other.  Teach us to move together like an army, like a team, like a family.  Make us one as you are one.  Bless our community.  Bless our congregation.  Bless your church.  Help us to function as the body of Christ.

Lord, I ask that you would open heaven and flood us with healing virtue.  Heal us body, soul, and spirit. 

Thank you Jesus, for the stripes that you endured and allowed to be inflected upon your back for our healing.  Thank you.  Thank you for doing that for me.  Thank you for suffering in my place.  I honor your sacrifice and will not let it be in vain for lack of faith.  I choose to believe that you heal.  I make a demand on the atonement that you have provided.  I claim the healing that you paid for – with my heart full of gratitude and thanksgiving – I receive what you have provided.  You are the healer.  Bring our bodies into order with your perfect design.  Restore function.  Fine tune and adjust until we walk in divine health.  Cleanse us.  Go right to the source of every sickness, disease, handicap, and malfunction – and fix it.  Release your healing power among us, Lord.  In Jesus’ name we pray. 

Lord, I ask for healing in our will, emotion, and intellect.  Heal who we are.  Heal our souls.  Heal the deep wounds and soul bruises that affect our responses.  Lord, I pray for soul health.  Help us to become so much at one with you that every soul issue is absorbed into you and healed. 

Father, I pray that in everything we think and do and say, our motives will be pure, our attitudes right and our priorities in order.  Help us to fulfill all the potential you’ve placed within us.  In Jesus’ name.

Father, order our steps and bring us on time to every divine appointment that you have set for us.  Help us not to miss those important connections.  Help us to truly and literally walk in the spirit.  We surrender our clocks and our calendars.  Order our steps and lead us in paths of righteousness for your name’s sake. 

Thank you for being God.  Thank you for being in control so I don’t have to be.  My life is yours.

Father, I pray for the Open Heaven Summit – that you will hand pick and ordain every person who is supposed to be part of this summit.  Bring us together.  Open heaven.  In Jesus’ name I pray.

3/7/13

Wow.  And thank you.  Lord, I bow my heart before you in genuine gratitude for the gift you have given.  Thank you for this beautiful gift.  Lord, I didn’t even ask and there it is.  I am overwhelmed.  Bless this gift.   Help me to use it for your glory.  God I love you.  Thank you.  Thank you.  Thank you.

(Note to reader:  as I sat down to type out my prayer this morning – the Lord give me the outline for a book.  I am blasted with the blessing and giddy with gratitude.)

Order my ways and my days.  Help me to fulfill the potential of this gift you have given.  Show me how to make it come alive and bring glory to your name.  Use me to equip the saints with this gift.  Use me to defeat the enemy with this gift.  Help me to offer it back to you as a fitting sacrifice of praise. 

Lord, I open my heart and ask that you would fill me with faith to pray effectively today.  Help me.  Use me to pray your will into this realm.  Let your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.  Use me Holy Spirit.  Search the heart of the Father and the mind of Christ – use me to accomplish your will in prayer. 

Show me your ways o Lord, teach me your paths, lead me in your truth and teach me.  You are the God of my salvation – on you I will wait all the day (Ps 25)  Lord, I want to walk where you walk.  I long to be where you are.  Show me what you see.  Use me to pray for the things that are on your heart.  Let my heartbeat be one with yours.  Come Holy Spirit. 

Show us how to pray effectively for the Open Heaven Summit.  I ask for a divine gift of faith to believe you for the impossible, the improbable, and the unimaginable.  Show us new levels of your greatness, and let that become our new norm of experience in you.  Take us deeper.  Show us more.  Reveal your face and your hand.  Help us to explore your heart and find the answers we seek.

Open Heaven, and open our hearts.  Pour heaven into our hearts until we are true ambassadors of that realm in this one.  Cause us to be fitting representatives of the kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Light.  Reign in our hearts, o King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

Father, I pray for the practical aspects of this meeting.  Lord, help us to finish the remodeling project in the sanctuary and bless it to be a comfortable, inspiring, and fitting place for you to abide and for us to meet with you.  Bring it together quickly.  Bless the work of our hands.  Bless the sanctuary.  Be there.  Let your presence sanctify every thread of carpet and every drop of paint. 

Lord, work out every spec of the tech works.  Give us clear and beautiful sound that will not distract but that will enhance our worship and our ability to hear your word.  Show us the lighting procedures that will be most effective for the media ministry.  Bless us with continually update tech equipment.  Prepare us for the future, and how us how to maximize the potential of the tech available to us.

 Bless the worship team.  Lead them as they lead the congregation.  Give them a song deep within their spirits as you pour through them.  Bless them and make them your instruments of worship.  Order the songs they choose.  Help them to be prepared.  Bless their talents as they yield to you.  Use them for your glory and revive them.  

3/6/13

Thank you Lord, for the privilege of prayer.  Thank you Lord, for giving us the authority to pray in Jesus’ name.   Thank you Lord, for calling us into the intimate places with you.  Thank you for hearing.  Thank you for answering. 

Come Holy Spirit and pray through me today.  Use me as your intercessor.  Fill me with faith and confidence to approach your throne.  Help me to release your will and your glory.  Let your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Father, we ask you for an open heaven.  Receive our petitions and pour out answers.  (Gen 28:11-17)  We invite your presence to fill the sanctuary.  Show us your glory.  Show us the beauty of your holiness.  Change us to be like you.

Lord, we long to break through into the realms where you are – into your holy throne room.  Open heaven and invite us in.  Open heaven and hear our prayers.  Open heaven and release answers, healings, deliverance, direction, anointing, and enablement.  Father, we ask for an open heaven.

You see the division among us.  You know the source of every offence.  In the name of Jesus I unmask the lies of the enemy and expose his deceptions.  I speak truth to heal and set free every relationship.  Bring things right and seal it with your love.  Make us one Lord, as you are one.  Heal us.  Give us a deep abiding love for one another.  Help us to mature in the fruit of kindness and longsuffering.  Keep us from hurting each other.  Make us one.  Give us the kind of unity that you can bless.  Let forgiveness flow like a gushing river and blast away every hindrance that would hold back your blessing and your favor.

Look on the needs of your people.  Open your hand and provide.  Lord, you see those who need jobs, better jobs, new sources and resources of income and provision.  Open doors and opportunities.  Let your provision rain down and bless the work of our hands.  Lord, I pray for ideas, solutions, and insights.  Open our eyes to the things you have provided and help us to maximize the potential of the things you have already given.  Meet the needs of your people, Lord.  You are our God.  We look to you for provision and answers. 

Lord, help us to teach your people the importance of prayer.  Show us how to motivate them to learn to pray effectively and give them the discipline and desire to get it done.

Lord, we pray for healings.  Father, we pray for a release of divine gifts of healings and miracles.  We take authority over every sickness and disease among us.  We curse the root and seed of cancer.  We speak cleansing to body, soul, and spirit.  Let your healing virtue flow, and flood our congregation and our community.  Heal us for your glory.  Show us your power and your love. 

Father, in everything we think and do and say, let our motives be pure, our attitudes right and our priorities in order.  Help us to fulfill all the potential you’ve placed within us.  Teach us to pray in faith and believe you will hear and answer.  Bring us to a higher place of prayer.  In Jesus name we pray.  Amen.

Lord, I’m really frustrated and I need your help.  I just don’t get the technical side of this project.  Father, help me.  You are the all knowing God.  You understand how this works.  Show me Lord.  Help me to get it right.  Help me to work smart and not waste my time floundering around.  Lord, lead me to the resources that will instruct and educate me.  Send those alongside me to guide me and keep me from making mistakes.  Father, I admit that I am unable to do this by myself.  I am totally dependent on you.    Help me.  Encourage me.  Give me the strength and tenacity to hang with this project until I get it right.  Open my understanding and help me to be better than I am, and to do the things I can’t do.

3/5/13

Lord, I just want to be where you are.  I press in to your presence.  I invite your embrace.  Hold me, comfort me, protect me, be my strong tower.  Let me hear your heart beat.  Remove anything that would keep me from receiving your love.  Lord, I receive your strength.  I receive your mercy. 

I draw on the covenant of the cross to cover my sin.  I receive your grace and mercy.  I surrender my pride and my shame.  I lay my life at your feet. 

Come Holy Spirit.  Pray through me.  Search the heart of the Father and use me as your intercessor, to accomplish all that the Father desires.

Father, I pray that in everything I think and do and say; my motives will be pure, my attitudes right, and my priorities in order.  Help me to fulfill all the potential you’ve placed within me. In Jesus’ name I pray.

Father, what is your priority today?  Show me through your eyes the things that need to be addressed in prayer.  Use me Lord.  Take me to the high ground.  Plant my feet beside you and show me what you see.  You are the all knowing, all powerful, ever present God.  Nothing is hidden from you. 

In the name of Jesus – I take authority over the intimidation of darkness.  I push back against the invading and penetrating smog of sin and evil.  I declare that my heart, my home, my family, my church, and my city, are the property of the Kingdom of Light and darkness must go – in Jesus’ name.  I unmask evil that comes disguised as the acceptable.  I expose hidden agendas and deceiving platforms.  I call forth divine truth to shine in every dark corner. 

You are my God.  You are light and love at your very essence.  I worship you. 

In the name of Jesus – I break the grip of corruption in the high places of our land.  I loose the constraints that hinder our leaders from making moral choices.  Set them free to do what is right, Lord.  Then give them courage to walk in that freedom.  Lord, we cry out for a transformation in this country that will align us with you and your will.  Let righteousness and truth be the ruling forces in our land.  We cry out for the truth that will make us free.

Use us Lord, to be your hand extended to the poor, hungry, and homeless.  Bless the loaves and fishes we offer and let your divine multiplication feed the hungry.  Show us how to effectively minister to the miserable.  Give us a workable plan for the homeless and helpless.  Show us how to equip those who are able to support themselves.  Shape our ethical standards and form our policies according to your wisdom, knowledge, and understanding.  Show us how.  Show us why.  Open our eyes and strengthen our hands and our resolve.  Use us Lord, to accomplish your will.  Love the world through us.  We yield ourselves to you, Father. 

Let your kingdom come and your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

Father, I pray that you would show us how to raise the monthly support for our missionaries.  Lord, give us a plan, a program, a workable campaign that will provide the means to spread the gospel.  Father, you own the cattle on a thousand hills and nothing is too difficult for you.  Let this miracle of providence come through our hands.  Use us to bless them.  Open the doors of opportunity for them.  Bless them.  Bless their ministry.  Bless their family.  Bless their mission.  Glorify your name through their lives and their work.  Establish them with the support they need to get on the field.  We call forth support – miraculous support – to equip them for every good work.

Lord, I pray for the remodeling project in the sanctuary.  Father, strengthen the hands that are doing the work.  Remove the frustrations.  Provide the right tools and workers to get the job done.  Let this sanctuary be a place that pleases you.  Help us to get it right.  Finish the work quickly.  Bless this project Lord.  Fill this sanctuary with your presence.  Let the beauty of your holiness rest there.

Holy Spirit, be my teacher.  Help me to understand the balance of grace and mercy against righteousness and holiness.  Lord, I’m floundering and I need your direction.  Let my responses to those who are walking contrary to your will be pleasing to you.  Lord, I just don’t know what to do and I need you to walk through this with me.  Show me how to love them and please you as well as honor your word. 

Lord, continue to heal me.  Thank you for the progress.  You are my healer.  You are my creator and my repairer.  I rejoice in this freedom from pain.  God you are so good to me.  Thank you.

I commit this day to you.  Lead me to the divine appointments that you have ordained and make this day count for your glory.  In Jesus’ name I pray.  

3/1/13  “After two days will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up….he shall come unto us as the rain, as the latter and former rain …” (Hosea 6:1-3)

Lord, we pray for rain.  Send down the rain.  Holy Spirit I yield myself to you.  Use me today to pray a faith filled prayer that will open heaven and bring down your holy rain.  Lord, I’m asking you for an Open Heaven, for unity, that needs will be met, for divine encounters, and much needed healings… but my heart cry is for rain.  Send the rain.  O God, we are dry and thirsty and we long for your rain.  Soak us with a steady downpour.  Soften our hearts.  Refresh us.  Renew us.  Send your rain.
Lord, I ask for a divine gift of faith to fall upon your intercessors as we pray for rain.  Fill us with visions of your glory and presence.  Set before our eyes the possibilities that await us in your presence.  Author and write upon our hearts the desires for unity, answers, direction, and healings.  Reveal your will and your abilities to bring it to pass.  Deepen our faith.  Feed our faith.  Let our hearts and minds be anchored in truth.  Bring us into your presence where answers are found.
Sweep away the trivial things that clutter our prayers and show us how to speak forth the laser-sharp words filled with faith and power and effective anointing.  Use us as your rain-callers.
Holy Spirit, I pray that you would move on the hearts of your intercessors, multiply our voices, let heaven echo with the call for rain.
Send down your rain.

2/28/13

This is your day, Lord.  It’s the day you have made and I choose to rejoice in it and live it as your day.  I give it to you.  I surrender to divine appointments, divine assignments, your priorities, and your pleasures.  Use me today as your intercessor to release your will into my life and your kingdom into this world.  Pray through me Holy Spirit.
Father, I pray that you will give me a vision of what you want to accomplish in this Open Heaven Summit.  Show me your glory and your power reigning down on us.  Show me what to ask for.  Kindle a fire of anticipation and fuel it with faith.  Help me to be in one accord with your purpose - to know your mind and feel your heartbeat.
Show us the beauty of your holiness.  Show us your throne - high and lifted up.  Show us your train as it fills this temple.  Let us see your face.  Show us how to remain lost in your presence where answers can be found.
Father we pray for an open heaven.  Remove every hindrance and obstacle that separates us from you.  In the name of Jesus we take authority over apathy, self-centeredness, distraction, fear, unbelief, lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, pride of life, fear of man, fear of failure, and impurities of body, soul, and mind.
We cast down imaginations and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.  We bring captive every thought to the obedience of Christ.  We ask for the washing of the Word, and the covenant of Calvary to cleanse us and complete us in you.  Change us Lord.  Make us like you.  Give us a solid connection that will infuse us with your presence and change us forever.
Father, we pray for unity.  Help us to be in one mind and one accord - desiring what you desire; thinking what you think; moving together in your purpose.  Help us to respect the uniqueness of our brother, and honor the commonality we have in Christ.  Make us one, Lord, as you are one.
Father, we know that the divisions among us break your heart.  Break our hearts also.  Let forgiveness heal the breeches.  We choose to let go of offences.  We choose to lay down our rights.  We choose to surrender to your rule and let you work it out.  Come Holy Spirit and heal us.  Heal our wounded spirits.  Heal our broken hearts.  Heal us completely and flood us with your peace.
Lord, you know the needs of your people before we even ask.  Father I pray that as heaven opens to us you will pour out answers, healings, deliverance, meet every need of your people.  Be our source and resource.  We acknowledge our total dependence on you and you alone.  Help us to ask in the right way, let our fervent prayers be effective.  Teach us to pray at the sources that cause the symptoms.  Go right to the heart of every problem and need - fix it right.  Change us.  Heal us.  Make us whole in you.
Lord, I pray for divine encounters at our Open Heaven Summit.  You are the rewarder of those who diligently seek you.  Father, I pray that every person who attends these summits will meet you there.  Remove every hindrance that would keep us from meeting with you.  Father, I pray for transportation, time off of work, baby sitters, good roads, and the overcoming of every excuse and obstacle.  Let the divine encounters happen in Jesus’ name.
Thank you Jesus, for all that you suffered to purchase our healing.  We honor you.  We will not let your sacrifice be forsaken.  We choose to walk in the healing anointing that you obtained for us.  Fill us with faith to rise and be healed in the name of Jesus.
Open Heaven and grant us victory over every sickness and disease among us.  Let healing virtue flow like a mighty river and wash away our pain.
Holy Spirit, I ask you to stir your intercessors to pave the way for these meeting in prayer.
Thank you for the privilege of prayer.  Thank you for an Open Heaven.

2/27/13

Good Morning Lord,  thank you for this beautiful day that you have made and you are in control of.  Flow through me Holy Spirit as your intercessor to accomplish your will and spread your kingdom rule on earth as it is in heaven.  Use me today to pray your will.  Use me today to open heaven.  Let me be your connection here in this place at this time.  Flow through me, use me.
Wash me clean from everything that is displeasing to you.  Bring me back to the plumb-line of your word and your perfect will for my life.  Help me to focus on prayer strategies that will change the world in which I live.  Use me lord, to make a difference.  Teach me to pray effectively.  Father, cause my effective fervent prayers to avail much according to your word and will.
Father, I pray for an open heaven.  Help us to become so lost in your presence that answers will be found.  Help me lord to use the keys and principles of faith to open the doors of heaven.  I release my faith right now, in Jesus’ name.
Father, I pray for those who have made a commitment to keep this time of prayer.  Remind them, draw them, empower them, flow through them, fill them with divine gifts of faith, draw them into your presence and embrace them with your love.
Give us one heart and one mind to pray in one accord.  Let the prayer of agreement echo through heaven’s court and accomplish all that you have purposed for this hour.  Be in the midst of us as we agree.
We ask for unity.  Make us one as you are one.  Heal relationships.  Let genuine forgiveness be accomplished.  Give us clear direction with a purpose and focus that we all can own as our own.  Bind us together and let love abound.  In the name of Jesus’ I take authority over every lie and deception of the enemy that would bring division among the brothers and sisters in Christ.  Let truth come and make us free to love each other again.
Father, I pray for a true understanding of your word concerning physical healings.  We bind doubt and confusion.  We bind religious theory, and release divine revelation of your healing power.  Change us and prepare us to be good and faithful stewards of your power.  We surrender all the glory and honor to you.
Heal us lord.  Let every cell of our bodies resonate the worship of heaven and bring glory and honor to your holy name.  We long to be like you.
Come Holy Spirit.  Meet with us now.  Fill each of us with your presence and power.  Infuse us with your anointing so that when we come together on March 15th heaven will already be open to us.  Refresh, renew, and revive us all.
We wait before you.  Come and speak to us.  Come and touch us.  Come and change us as we yield to you.
Lord we ask for the kind of open heaven that Jacob saw.   Reveal to us the things that you already have in place and show us how to flow in those things.
Open our eyes, our hearts, and our understanding as we wait in your presence.
All these things we ask in the authority of Jesus’ holy name.  Amen.
