Rise to the challenge of prayer

Help me to rise to the challenge of prayer.  Lord, anoint me and encourage me in prayer ministry.  Flow through me with an addiction to your presence and anointing.  Stir in me a hunger and a thirst until my spirit demands what my flesh resists.  Use me as your intercessor today. 

Father, I pray for the upcoming Open Heaven Summit.  Meet us there, Lord.  Draw in those who are ordained for this divine appointment with you.  Lord, take control of all of the preparations.  Spread the invitation far and wide.  Call and draw those whom you desire.  Refresh us in your spirit.  Renew us in your presence.

Lord, I pray for the worship team.  Bless and anoint them to lead us in worship.  Father, I pray for increased ability and availability.  Lord, bless their lives and order their days so they will stand prepared for ministry and rested and refreshed in you.  Lord, we ask for quality instruments – gifts from you.  Lord, we need a better piano.  Lord, help us with the development of the sound system.  Father, enhance and increase the talents you’ve invested in our musicians.  Help them to grow and learn and refine their abilities.  Help them to play skillfully with the Davidic ability.  Teach them better techniques on their instruments and how to flow more freely in your leading.  Lord, raise up psalmist and minstrels.  Father, bless our singers with clear strong voices and beautiful harmonies.  Sing through them Holy Spirit.  Bless our sound and tech people and their equipment.  Help us to rise to the next level in ability and anointing.  Improve the quality of our worship to glorify your name.  Let the sound of heaven resound in our worship.  Help us to be in tune with the moving and direction of the Holy Spirit.  Show us which wave of anointing you want us to ride. 

Lord, help us to mentor the next generation of worship leaders.  Teach our children to worship you in spirit and in truth.  Develop their musical abilities and give them a desire to surrender those talents to you.

Father, prepare the word for the Open Heaven Summit.  Prepare our hearts to receive it as good seed in good ground.  Give us a hundred fold harvest from the planting of your word at this summit.  We ask for fresh revelation and truth that makes us free. 

Come Holy Spirit.  Open Heaven and meet with us there.
