Oh Lord, I pray that I might continue to be a light unto the world. That people will see the wisdom that You have instilled in me and desire to hear the good news of the gospel. I know that at times I have gone overboard in my way of evangelism on the streets and my style of writing and I am sorry. I know that people will never be converted and know that You are God unless I begin to speak and write with Your words flowing out of my mouth and as I type. Even my actions should be Your actions and not my own. So please instill in me a better way to reach people for the kingdom. Help me know exactly who is ready to hear the gospel and who is not as well. I know that there will be times when I am just asked to preach open air. So I pray that in these moments that at least one person will hear the gospel message of the cross and resurrection and then come to know You as their personal Savior. There is so much I wish to tell the world about the salvation that comes only from You, Jesus. You are the rock upon which I stand, even a firm foundation. Death and hell cannot take me down any longer, for You are my King and my Shepherd. I’ve heard Your voice and am ready to do Your will above anything else. Call my name and I will respond. Use me for Your hands and feet, for I am excited to help You win souls for Your kingdom. You are the way to eternal life, Lord, and I wish that more people would also come to know this. Then, they would also desire to live their lives fully for You and no longer for their own flesh. That they would repent of their sins and be converted. May Your blood cover these lost souls, that they may be forgiven. Even the people that have drifted off from the righteous path, draw them back in. Heal them through Your blood, which was shed for the sins of the world. I love You, Jesus. I glorify Your Name. Amen.

1 Kings 10:7-9
1 Kings 10:7-9 (KJV)
7 Howbeit I believed not the words, until I came, and mine eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me: thy wisdom and prosperity exceedeth the fame which I heard.
8 Happy are thy men, happy are these thy servants, which stand continually before thee, and that hear thy wisdom.
9 Blessed be the Lord thy God, which delighted in thee, to set thee on the throne of Israel: because the Lord loved Israel for ever, therefore made he thee king, to do judgment and justice.

Today’s Prayer (05/08/2020)
Oh Lord, I am grateful to know You and to be Your child. Praise be to Your Name, oh Lord God of the heavens. Hallowed be your Name, dear Father. I worship You and You alone. I know that there are many distractions in life like TV, movies, sports, video games, phones, and other things, but they have no power over me, for You are my God and nothing else will come close. Surely, nothing else compares to You. I have been down the path of serving the lies of this world and have not found anything good in it. Every TV show and movie that I watched only took me away from serving You, reading the Bible, and praying. I always wondered where all my time went, when reality I gave it to these things instead of You. They were my gods and I didn’t even realize it until it was almost too late. Even the video games I played always made me feel like looking at porn afterward, which was awful. There was always such a dark cloud that was over me in these times, and now I know why. I was because You were not with me. Because I serving the lusts of my flesh, I could not have You also. So other gods in my life had to go. Even the amount of time I watch the NBA has been diminished. I no longer follow people, but You alone. Why would I want to follow anyone, when You have the answers that I have needed the entire time. You have always been there, but I was so stubborn in my own personal idolatry. What a mess I was in, and I am so grateful that You pulled me out of this. Now, I have no desire to watch anything on TV that doesn’t bring me to follow You. Everything that I can see on it is not useful and a big time waster. This is Satan’s big ploy to turn people away from You. So I cry out now for everyone that is on this dark path to wake up. Come to Jesus, who saves. You are Lord and have the power to save them from their sins, as You have saved me. I love You. Amen.
1 Kings 9:6,7
1 Kings 9:6,7 (KJV)
6 But if ye shall at all turn from following me, ye or your children, and will not keep my commandments and my statutes which I have set before you, but go and serve other gods, and worship them:
7 Then will I cut off Israel out of the land which I have given them; and this house, which I have hallowed for my name, will I cast out of my sight; and Israel shall be a proverb and a byword among all people:

Today’s Prayer (05/07/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will not fear the Coronavirus or other trials in life, but begin to fear You instead. So many people are watching the news and doing everything they can, in order to follow the strict guidelines that are being told to the public at large, where You have become distant to most of them. It is like people would rather get details from people, of what they should be doing in these times of disease, instead of seeking Your hand in prayer. This life is short and people could die from this disease or really from anything else. So my question is, God. Are people just saying they believe in You, but really their hearts are far from you? Do they trust in the world more than they do in You? How can this be if they would go so far as to call themselves a Christian? This is really breaking my heart, for if people did love You they would seek Your hand in what You said in the scriptures and in prayer. And as You have directed us to do in the Bible, people would begin to pray like they never have before. They would see the plagues in their own lives and repent before it is too late. Lord, it is better to prepare our lives for heaven, then to find any favor in this world. I would rather live and die as a faithful follower of You, Jesus, then to die having done all I could to escape death with vaccines, wearing masks, and filling up on prescription drugs. Lord, You are my healer and my strength comes from You alone. I know that there is a time and place for doctors and even prescription drugs, but You will help me know when to go forward with such things. I know that You are there and will continue to lead me and others on Your righteous path. We just need to endure in our faith. I love to walk in Your ways, for I love You with all my heart, God. Amen.
1 Kings 8:37-40
1 Kings 8:37-40 (KJV)
37 If there be in the land famine, if there be pestilence, blasting, mildew, locust, or if there be caterpiller; if their enemy besiege them in the land of their cities; whatsoever plague, whatsoever sickness there be;
38 What prayer and supplication soever be made by any man, or by all thy people Israel, which shall know every man the plague of his own heart, and spread forth his hands toward this house:
39 Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways, whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men;)
40 That they may fear thee all the days that they live in the land which thou gavest unto our fathers.

Today’s Prayer (05/06/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people’s hearts will be turned to You and not the teachings of men. Surely, false doctrines can seem so good on the outside, but when inspected by a devout Christian, is is very corrupt instead. Anything that distorts God’s Word is deceiving others and leading them away from You. Even the Mormon Church has taken what You have said was important for the Your House and desecrated it. They have taken a holy practice and made it an evil practice out of it. Even the practice of “Baptisms For The Dead” has been taken out of context, which was meant for the “Moten Sea” in scripture. Instead of it being where priests bathed, it became something entirely different now. And so we have Mormon Temples popping up all around the world, where the focus is to baptize people in proxy for those that have died. Lord, do they not know that after this life comes the judgment? These second chances that Mormons are trying to make for themselves and others are never going to happen. Our time is now to know You, Jesus. We cannot rely on anything else after we die. Nowhere in the Bible does it teach this, and I worry that because of this abominable teaching, millions of Mormons are now on the road to hell. This really saddens me, God, to know that my dad, my grandma, and others have died in this cult. And because they didn’t want to hear the truth of God, their path is destruction and the lake of fire. Lord, I wish this wasn’t the case and I know that You are a righteous judge, but I also know that You are just in all your dealings. I hope to warn my Mormon family members of the wrath to come, but they will not hear me. Oh, how this brakes my heart. I wish to see all my family members be with me in heaven, while we abound in Your presence forever, but it is up to them to leave what is false behind. Surely, it is better to leave what is false and cleave to what is right in Your sight. May they come to know You, Jesus, personally. Even in all their humility, I pray that some will come around to hearing the truth before their dying breath. I love You. Amen.
2 Chronicles 4:2-6
2 Chronicles 4:2-6 (KJV)
2 Also he made a molten sea of ten cubits from brim to brim, round in compass, and five cubits the height thereof; and a line of thirty cubits did compass it round about.
3 And under it was the similitude of oxen, which did compass it round about: ten in a cubit, compassing the sea round about. Two rows of oxen were cast, when it was cast.
4 It stood upon twelve oxen, three looking toward the north, and three looking toward the west, and three looking toward the south, and three looking toward the east: and the sea was set above upon them, and all their hinder parts were inward.
5 And the thickness of it was an handbreadth, and the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; and it received and held three thousand baths.
6 He made also ten lavers, and put five on the right hand, and five on the left, to wash in them: such things as they offered for the burnt offering they washed in them; but the sea was for the priests to wash in.

Today’s Prayer (05/05/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will start to remember You in their everyday life. That they will not just remember You while they are at church, but during the week also. Then, will they desire to do what is right and not what the flesh desires instead. Lord, if people would simply put You first in their lives, then there would be ample time for reading and studying the Bible each day. Prayer would become oh so important, while serving You would be who they are. Things like watching TV and movies, playing video games, messing around on our computer, phones or tablets, would be put aside for You. I know that this sounds like a huge change of pace for most people, but in reality, what people are putting ahead of You are their idols. People may put up a really good front during church service, but if our everyday lives do not showcase a renewed life, then we are not born again. Instead, we have learned to become superficial around certain people, which is not good at all. God, if people desire to be saved, then they must remember to keep Your commandments. Which is to love You with all their heart, mind, and strength and our neighbor as ourselves. This is not a once a week thing only, but a lifestyle change for Christ. Lord, how I love You. You are the apple of my eye and I am anxious for my bride to return. If there is anything that I am doing that is wrong, please correct me now. All I desire to live my whole life to follow You. I am nothing without Your presence, but I am able to achieve much when You are with me. And to everything that I am able to accomplish, I give You the glory. I love You, Lord. To live each day for You is what I long to do when I wake from sleep. There is more joy in serving You then not. This I pray, in Your mighty Name, Jesus. Amen.

1 Kings 6:11-13 (KJV)
11 And the word of the Lord came to Solomon, saying,
12 Concerning this house which thou art in building, if thou wilt walk in my statutes, and execute my judgments, and keep all my commandments to walk in them; then will I perform my word with thee, which I spake unto David thy father:
13 And I will dwell among the children of Israel, and will not forsake my people Israel.

Today’s Prayer (05/04/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to come forth and desire to be used in Your kingdom. What is needed are workers who are humble and thirsty for whatever You have to throw at them. People that want to be used by You and don’t feel burdensome by it. This is the elect of God, whom You are able to do great things in Your kingdom. For people that in Your church, they do not sit idly by, while watching TV and playing video games, but keep themselves busy seeking You in prayer, reading the Bible, serving in the church, and witnessing on the streets and other places. Surely, Lord, You have given us a new heart, that has new desires along with it. We would never wish to waste our time on our phone, tablet, computer, or TV, but hope that You can use what we have for the building up of Your kingdom. And if things in our lives are not helping these efforts, we ask that You cast them out of our lives. Help us to always be aware of things that You love and that You hate also. For how can I say that I am on Your side if I am always seeking and going after the wrong things? This is not what it means to be born again, for if we were, we would despise what is evil and love what is good. We would continually go after things that You have called us to, and not what the world says is best for us. It isn’t superficial joy that makes us happy, but the joy that comes from heaven, which lifts our souls up with an abundance of great joy. So Lord, convict people of their sins, that they may stop sinning willfully, but begin to live for You instead. There is nothing hidden that You cannot see, which includes pornography and other sexual sins. These things must be eradicated and removed out of people’s hearts and minds, or else Your Spirit will never move in such people. So I pray that people will repent and be set free from their bondage. Set people free from their slavery to sin and renew them in the Holy Spirit. This I pray, Lord. In Your mighty Name, Jesus. Amen.

Today’s Prayer (05/03/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people of all the world, who call themselves Christian, will desire the best gifts that come only from heaven. Things that we can build up spiritually and take with us when we die. These are the gifts I desire above all else. As for my time now, it is to serve You, my gracious God and Father of all creation. Whatever spiritual gifts that I have not already gained from Your hand, I am now ready to gain even more when You are ready. Lord, I am ready to take the next steps for Your kingdom and no longer sit idly by while others do Your work. I know that I have a purpose in Your kingdom, and I am grateful that You have already used me up until this point in my life. Now, I know that my time is short and I do not know the time or day that I will pass on from death and into life eternal. So I will prepare all my days to obey Your commandments and to teach people the wisdom that You have given me. You’ve opened my eyes to the Bible and every verse is like honey to my taste. I cannot meditate on Your words long enough, for there is so much wisdom and knowledge to gain. Oh, how I love Your ways, for they are pure and true in every way. It is my greatest desire to see people know You like I have come to know You. May more people reach out their hand to You in prayer, that You may lead them also home, as You have for me. Because You are near me, I am already home in Your presence. Where I will go after this life is to be with You for eternity. What a wonderful present this is. I cherish my time now to be in prayer, studying the Bible, and showcasing Your love towards others. This is in preparation to be with You in heaven. Now, if I can help lead more people to be with You also, praise the Lord. This is why I live my life. It is to be Your servant and to share the good news of the gospel. I love You, Lord. Amen.

Today’s Prayer (05/02/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that You will give me words to speak this day and forever. Help me to always know Your will, that I may never lean unto my own understanding. I need Your understanding in my life, that I may be able to always distinguish between what is good and evil. I do not wish to have the lines to be blurred in any way, because of sin in my life. So if there is anything inside of me or in my house now that doesn’t glorify You, but brings in darkness instead, bring it to my attention immediately. I do not wish to grieve the Holy Spirit, but to always have the comforter with me at all times. Nothing I am doing or possess now is more important than abiding in You and doing Your will. I am ready to give up anything for Your cause, for You are my Savior and Lord of all. I will remove out of my life and destroy whatever does not honor You, and I pray that others will make this choice today as well. Lord, nothing I can gain in this world is worth more than having Your presence with me. I would never want to replace Your love with superficial love that comes with meddling in sexual sin and porn. These things are grievous in Your sight and only lead to temporary pleasure, plus guilt and shame afterward. Therefore, lead me far from the hands of the evil one and draw me into Your fold at all times. You are the rock upon which I stand. Nothing is greater. So Lord, as I go out into the world and teach and preach the gospel, give me understanding. Help me to see the evils of this world, and also have the courage to speak out against it. May Your words be what comes forth out of my mouth. Fill me with the Holy Spirit at all times, that I may continue to be a valiant servant for Your kingdom. I love You, Lord. You have blessed me beyond measure, and I am so grateful. Amen.
