Prayer for May 24th
Hello, Friends! I’m feeling led to re-post this prayer today…
Dear Heavenly Father…
We thank you for this opportunity to come together once again. We thank you, Lord that we have the freedom to come together in a public way. We pray for those who are experiencing religious persecution… for those who are threatened … tortured … abused … made outcasts… for their belief in you. Lord, we lift these up to you and we pray for their deliverance. We ask for you to intervene and make a way of escape…put your angels about them and protect them, Lord and meet their every need.
We ask for forgiveness for the things we take for granted…our freedoms, the ability to gather together and worship publicly, the ability to read your Word openly and the funds that provide ownership of a Bible. Help us Lord, to appreciate what we have been given. Help us to remember those who would not miss the opportunity if it were given to them to do the things we take for granted… help us to realize these things are precious gifts not to be squandered or taken lightly.
Lord, help us become faithful prayer warriors…truly more battles are fought and won on our knees than we will ever know. We pray for our leaders… we pray that they would be God-fearing people with incorruptible hearts of compassion, devoid of self and greed. We pray they would be filled with your wisdom and knowledge that they might lead for the benefit of all and not a select few and we ask that they would always serve with your ways in mind. We pray for the believers who are in leadership…be their strength and their voice Lord…give them Holy boldness to speak the truth, even when it’s not politically correct.
We pray for our church leaders and teachers and all those in ministry. Weed out the wolves in sheep’s clothing , so none will be led astray. When people are on the front lines serving in ministry, they come under great spiritual attack. We ask for a hedge of protection about them Lord, so they can spread your word and teach and build up the body of Christ. Please meet all the financial needs that are necessary to help keep their ministries going.
We pray Lord for all of those who protect and serve us all… for all who go to work knowing they are in harm’s way at any given moment. May you guide and protect them and their families. May they receive the honor and compensation they deserve, for the long hours and self-sacrifice they give to keep us all safe.
Lord, most of us are in some sort of battle…some of us are dealing with more than one. We ask that you bind the enemy. We ask that you go before each one and give us your strength and power to fight the battles that we are facing. We ask for your protection and provision. We ask you to make the crooked paths straight. We call on your name, Lord and we ask you to meet every need and we thank you in advance, for the provision that is coming. We humble ourselves before you, Lord. We thank you for hearing our prayers. We praise you, Lord and we give you all glory and honor. In the precious name of our Savior Jesus we pray, Amen.
May you feel His presence today!
Much love in Him,
Debbie
