Lord God, this gift of life is surely amazing. I cannot even fathom how you created us all. I am left in awe just thinking about my children and how they came about. What precious babies they were and now they are still so beautiful as they age. I am so blessed to have my daughters and wife in my life. Each of them brings me so much joy. They give off this light that is contagious. Thank You for the love they show me. I know that it was You that made it all possible. You ordained my family from the beginning. Now, with Your light in my life I can guide them to know what is right and what is wrong. I can teach them Your ways, that they may also come to know You also. In order to help raise my children, with my wife, I understand that childish things are in the past. It is important to put off the dark things of the past and follow You. If Your light falls from my countenance, I know that my children will stumble also. So please help me and my wife fight temptation and to always seek You. We only want to follow You Lord. You are the light of our lives and we love You. Our hope is in You. Amen.
Prayers (10-2018)
Today’s Prayer (10/29/2018)
Oh Lord, I pray that you will shine your light upon us. Give us vision, dear Lord. Cause us to uphold what is righteous and hate what is evil. Just as you love the sinner but hate the sin, may we also do the same when it comes to the wickedness of this world. May we never be partakers in evil things that only cause Your light to scatter. One of these wicked and vile things that I worry so much about Lord is Halloween. I know for a fact that many so-called Christians are on the streets with their kids on that day. And as their kids are going out trick-or-treating, the darkness of that day is seeping into their lives. So much darkness is contained in the costumes and haunted houses, that I fear for their souls. I do not wish these same people to get caught up in the acts of Satan, this year. May these people learn of the darkness that is contained therein and stay far away from it. Just as You have told Paul to avoid all appearance of evil, I ask that You help people to understand that Halloween is also evil and to avoid it as well. It did take a coming out of my addiction to finally come to Your light and see the darkness of Halloween, but now I am able to spot it at first glance. You have given me vision Lord and I pray that more people will begin to be guided by You. I love You Lord. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/28/2018)
Oh Lord, I know that there is a great need in this world and as Christians, we can make a big difference. People don’t have to continue to suffer under our watch any longer. As we are walking down the street and see a person that is homeless, we could offer them some money, some food or water, our coat, our hat, and even our shoes. Even, while we are driving and see people in need, we could listen to the Holy Spirit’s prompting and stop and care for them. You Lord, give us patience and a kind and generous heart. Nothing is ever a rush when You have someone in need and we are the one to care for them. Lord, may Your promptings be heard, even when we are at the store. Yes, God, when people in front of us are checking out and are struggling to pay their groceries, give us boldness to step up and pay the rest. And if we are well off, give us a desire to pay it all for them, that they may have money later and not suffer. I know that we are to be a light to this generation, and I pray that we all become one today. To be used by You, God, is the most amazing thing ever and I pray that more people will experience it today. It truly is amazing to see people in need be comforted and find peace. We do this for Your glory Lord. It is because we love You and our neighbor. I love You Lord. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/27/2018)
Oh Lord, my God, I pray that Your wisdom will fall down upon us. May our flesh be no longer given over to the things of this world but unto Your will. Help us tame the lusts of the flesh, that we may walk in Your love. Come and scatter the darkness, that we may walk in Your light. May Satan no longer have power over us, that we may walk and no longer stumble through life. In sin, our vision is clouded and we cannot help but trip and fall when temptation is at the door. For this Lord, we wish that sin may no longer be a part of our lives. Build us up with Your armor. May we be fighters for what is righteous and learn to hate what is evil. So many people are in darkness and need Your deliverance. Help us be a light to them. Give us ears to hear and new eyes, that we may see. Lead us to the lost, that we may share Your message of hope with them. May we find the broken and open hearted and then lead them to You, Jesus. You have the power to free them from bondage, and all addiction, and for this, we are here to bring these people to You. May they experience Your matchless power and find mercy and forgiveness. I trust in You, Jesus. You are my hope and the rock of my salvation. I love You Lord. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/23/2018)
Lord God, we believe in You. You are our Father and we are grateful to be Your children. It is Your love and kindness that strengths us daily. As we read Your Words, the Bible, our faith is strengthened. We are not alone, for You have sent the Comforter to lead us to know the truth. The Holy Spirit is our guide. Thank You Lord. When I pray, I know that You are right there. You listen to my prayers and give me answers. You have opened my eyes to things that I’ve questioned. I’ve been strengthened to know where to go in life. This world is very deceiving but Your love and care for us is what nurtures us. Thank You for relieving me from my addictions that have plagued my life. For many years I did not know how to break free until the light finally came on one day. I was not being helped because I was not seeking You. There was no time for You, so how could You help me and set me free. This realization has changed me. Now, I look to You and everything is different. Your Words are what guide me, in this lost world. Prayer moves me to do what is right. Because I’ve made time for You, everything has worked out for my good. Thank You for helping me understand this. I am so grateful. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/21/2018)
Thank You Lord for showing us Your mercy and grace. We are so lost with You. Nothing can bring us happiness but You, my God. With Your help in my life, I can surely do all things. You give me strength even when I feel like nothing else is left. Thank You for coming to my side, when I need You the most. There is nothing like Your love. There is nothing like Your compassion. There is nothing like Your mercy. There is nothing like Your kindness. There is nothing like Your wisdom. I am so blessed. Thank You Jesus. Thank You Lord. What an awesome God I serve. I was foolish in this world but am made wise in You, my God. The message of Your gospel is so beautiful and I will always have it my heart. Thank You for the cross. Thank You for dying for my sins, dear Lord. Your blood has covered me. What a Savior! I look to You Lord God. You are alive and my hope and trust is in You. I will serve You Lord, all the days of my life. You are worthy. All praise and honor to Your glorious Name. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/20/2018)
Oh Lord, please come and send the Holy Spirit down to pierce the hearts of people. May they come to a realization that participating in darkness is evil. Surely, we cannot abide in Your light, if darkness rules our life. There are so many dark things in this world and it is taking Christians down with it. My heart sinks to think that people I know and love are allowing themselves to be led by Satan and not You, oh Lord. People may even discount the Halloween holiday and say that there is no harm or foul in participating. But those are all lies and Satan is control of them all. Help us Lord and cause people to escape the temptations of the devil. These things are evil and vile in nature and we need your help. Even if it appears evil, I pray that Christians will finally stand up to it and no longer be partakers. What may seem harmful to the soul is harmful indeed. So God, I pray that people will come to a realization of what is evil in this world and turn from it this day. Our bodies are your temple and therefore, cast out all the darkness and usher in your light. You are faithful to Your promises and I trust in You, Lord. My hope is in my Savior. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/18/2018)
Lord, come and fill us with the Holy Spirit. Help us become a light to this generation. Give us boldness to share Your gospel truths and to not back down when the Spirit is convicting us to share. Fill our minds with wisdom that we may know what to say. Help us be patient with those people around us. And may your love fill every conversation. We don’t always know the right way to act or to say, but we know that when You are with us, it is all for Your good. You give us words to speak. As we open our mouths, Your words follow. Thank You Lord. Lead us to the lost. May we have good conversations that lead to Your saving grace. People needs to know that they are lost or they cannot be saved. I pray that we will be so bold as to explain this in a way that will help people understand that we are in a fallen world. There is nothing we can do to be saved but through Your sacrifice, Jesus. I pray that many people that are foolish now will gain Your wisdom. Then will they be made wise in God. I love You Lord. I trust in You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/17/2018)
Oh Lord, come and open the eyes of the blind. Give them ears to hear. Help them understand that what people do and gain in this life is insufficient without You. Help them realize that all their accomplishments will not help them come judgement day. Prick their hearts that they may come to a realization that they are a sinner and need a Savior. I know that many people will reject such conviction but the humble will respond and come forth. Lead these people by the hand, that they have turn from their sins and follow You, Jesus. I know that Your grace is sufficient for all people that come to You. Thank You for Your forgiveness and mercy. I pray that these same people will experience Your compassion for them. Then, will they obtain the greatest wisdom of all. Surely, the knowledge You give surpasses our own understanding. As you teach them, as You teach me, they will begin to see the truth. Thank You Lord for searching us out and leading us on the path of righteousness. I am so grateful to be given such wisdom and be led by You. You are the rock of my salvation. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/16/2018)
Lord God, help those that are struggling in life, find peace. Give them rest, that they may come to an understanding of their lives. I know that there are so many people living for this world and it is only Your love that will awaken them to their sins. This knowledge can be passed on to them through people but Your Spirit is what convicts them of their wrongs. What is tarnished will be brought to light, that these people may come out of darkness and into Your light. May these people be humble enough to hear You out and act upon their convictions. I pray that a revival happens in their hearts that they may finally turn from what is wicked and seek what is righteous. So come and cut lose all the shame and guilt from their hearts and resurrect their souls today. Lead the lost to Your love. Help them experience the joy that comes from You. Our time is short and for that I pray that people will turn to You, God, before their time is over. May there be no regrets but thanks to God for Your forgiveness and grace. Thank You Lord for saving me. Your blood has set me free. I love You. In the holy Name, Jesus. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/15/2018)
Lord God, please help people see the importance of repenting and discovering You today, before it is too late. I have seen way to many people, I know and love, die and I am always saddened to think that they may have lost their chance at salvation. So many people are living for the things of this world and don’t even know it. The lusts of the flesh rule their thoughts and intents. Evil things and wickedness fills their lives. And what saddens me the most is not only the wickedness of this world but also that I have family and friends that are among them. Some are living a worldly life and making many mistakes along the way. Others are striving to live a good life, while living apart from Your true gospel. And so my heart breaks for them. I do not wish anyone to experience hell. I wish everyone I knew and loved would leave the world behind and follow You, Jesus. So God, please awake these people to Your love. Move them off the path of destruction and onto Your path that to heaven. May they be convicted of their wrongs and repent today. I pray that more of the people I love and care for on earth will also go to heaven. I say these things Lord, in thy Holy Name. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/13/2018)
Lord God, we need more people so willing to live their lives for You. This world is so vile and wicked that their needs to be something done for people to change their lives. So use us God, that we may be Your ambassadors to fight against all darkness. Come and shine forth in our lives. Help people know, just by talking with us, that life doesn’t have to revolve around feeding on the lusts of the flesh. Help them know that their drugs, alcohol and pornography are wicked. May they be convicted of their wrongs and join the ranks of the Christians. I know that the war is raging but we are here for You, Jesus. Give us your commands and we will go forth. You are our guide and our hope for tomorrow. May your light scatter all the darkness and the enemy defeated. Your love does conquer all evil. You have brought me out of a life of guilt and I pray that You will use me to help people run from their mistakes and into Your arms. Thank You Lord for using me. I trust in You. You are my rock and my firm foundation. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/03/2018)
Oh Lord, I pray that more people will experience your great love. May they come to know You personally before their time is done. I know that our time is short, even though some people attempt to prolong their lives. What sadness this brings me to see people try to escape death while also escaping their day of repentance. Most people know about You but continue to live their own lives apart from You. And what is really sad is that a lot of these same people think their beliefs will save them. Wow, God, what a false sense of security to think that You will allow their filth into Your kingdom. I pray that these people will wake up to their wickedness today. May they understand how far they have strayed and come to You for reconciliation. I know that only You Lord have the ability to cleanse them and move them to live differently. Yes, it takes humility and I pray that people will be ever so humble before You. And maybe then, will they fear You, while no longer living a life that mocks You. I am so grateful that You have opened my eyes to the wickedness in me. I am a new person because of that. I am changed because of Your love, Jesus. You are my Savior and I love You so much Lord. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/01/2018)
Oh Lord, I pray that You do shine down upon me. Come into my life and fill me with wisdom. Deliver me from temptation and lead me to Your righteousness. Cut every addiction out of my life and deliver me out of bondage. My life of foolishness is over. Come and make me wise today. With Your light in my life I can do all things. In Your presence, nothing can take me down. I am strong with You. Where I come up short, You fill in the gaps. Even my lowly stature is elevated. I may not know what to say but with Your words in my mouth, the Spirit of truth comes out. The boldness that You bring comes inside of me and leads me to do things that are lifesaving. Where people’s lives may not have been affected by Your great will before, they are starting today, when You speak through me. Surely Lord, Your words penetrate the heart and soul and pierce the heart of every man and woman on this earth. With that same speech within me, the Spirit of God moves inside ever soul that I meet. Yes God, Your will goes forth because I am an able witness for Your greater good. This is my prayer, that You will always remain in me. Continue to shine forth through me that all mankind will experience Your great love. Amen.
