Embrace us and change us


Nothing is more important than being in your presence.  Lord, give us a deep revelation of the value of being there – at your feet, in your embrace, saturated and impregnated with your love.  Renew the romance and stir the passion for you.  Give us a taste – whet our appetites, give us a thirst and hunger that can only be satisfied in your presence.  Open Heaven and invite us in. 
Father, we thank you for all that you are doing.  We are so grateful for your provision and direction.  Thank you for leading us down the right road – the narrow way – and being our constant companion on this journey. 
Father, we pray for Brett Ransom and for Margaret Cox as they prepare to minister at the Open Heaven Summit and the Women’s retreat.  Open Heaven for them as they study and prepare.  Give them the word for the hour and the passion for your people that they will be ministering to.  Speak to us through them.  Marinate them in your anointing and power so that when they stand to minister the fullness of your glory will be seen in them.  Use them mightily and help us to receive all that they are preparing for us.
Lord, I pray that you will draw many more of our fellowship into the “Not a Fan” journey.  Help us to walk this road together as a body of believers and get the most out of what you have set before us.  Make it real.  Give us a tangible experience with you that will change us forever. 
Let your glory be manifested among us.  Release a huge flood of love and grace.  Make it so real. 
Release a flood tide of healing virtue.  Heal us all.  Cleanse us from every sickness, disease, malady, iniquity and distress that the world and the enemy has laid on us.  Cleanse us from the poor choices we have made that have corrupted us in body, soul and spirit.  Heal us all.  Change us to be like you.  Conform us completely to your divine and perfect design. 
Clarify direction, Lord.  Show us the hindrances to receiving answers to prayer and fulfillment of your promises.  Help us to aggressively and systematically remove those hindrances until we see the breakthrough to all that you have prepared and promised to us.  Help us.  Lead us.  Strengthen us for and in the process. 
We acknowledge total dependence on you.  God, you are our source.  We worship you.  Be glorified in our lives.
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.  In Jesus’ name we pray.
Lord, I pray for all those right now who are considering abortion.  Lord, I plead for the life of the unborn.  Spare them.  Intervene and open doors of choices for life.  Go to the source of the problem in our culture that creates these situations of unwanted pregnancies.  Stop the torrential tide of unfettered lust in our culture.  Change us, Lord.  Show us a better way.  Educate and steer this generation and the next to value what you value. 
Lord, be in control of my time and schedule today.  I take authority over pain and declare that I will not be controlled by it nor will it dictate my accomplishments today.  I am free in Jesus’ name.
