Oh Lord, I love You and give You everything that I am. What I do in life does not matter unless You are leading me. Therefore, I come to people and lift You up, that You may become more important than myself. It is my desire for people of all walks of life and of all ages to come to know You, Jesus, as their Lord God and Savior. That they will begin seeking You daily through prayer, Bible study, and doing Your will. That their belief may no longer be something they say they have, but it is now who they are from the inside out. Truly, I cannot abide enough in Your presence, for in You alone is there eternal life. It is not through the teachings of this world, but through abiding in You can I discover what my purpose is in life. Truly, only You can lead me into the truth. I am able to escape the darkness and be led into Your glorious life. And Lord, I admit that I am nothing without You. I may have accomplished things, but those things are meaningless unless You had a hand in it. And because You did, I give You the glory and tell others to give You the glory also. I say, “do not lift me up, but lift up the Lord God who saves.” I love You, Jesus. I give You glory and praise. Amen.
Prayers (10-2020)
Today’s Prayer (10/30/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will make the right choices when it comes to marriage. That they will not go down the road of divorce if issues can be fixed. I’ve seen way too many people who are now worse off because of divorce than while they were married. The children no longer have a set home to be at, for they go from home to home on the weekends or other specific times during the year. And we have children who are now picking sides. Their dad or their mom is now the one they love more or trust. And because of being single, people are drawn into porn, alcohol, and other addictions. There are custody issues, child support, dividing up what is yours, losing your home, which oftentimes lead to more frustration. Surely, there is never an easy out when it comes to divorcing our spouse, and it is not something that You have desired of us either. I just wish people would learn to love their spouse as You love the church, then would marriage’s last. It is when Your love is missing that other things have to fill the gaps. And this is foundation is built upon the sand, and will surely fall when storms come. Then when it crumbles many people are hurt. So, God, I pray that people will only ever divorce when fornication and abandonment are involved. This is what the Bible says and I believe it. And even then, please convict people in their broken state to call upon You for help in prayer. To also see their pastor, and also go to Christian marriage counseling classes for more help. This will only do them good. Lord, I am so happy that I have You in my life. My marriage has been on the rocks at different times, and if You were not there my marriage would have ended a long time ago. Thanks to You, God, my love for my wife is still strong and active. I love You, Lord. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/29/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray for people who are still participating in Halloween. May they finally be convicted of the wickedness found in this dark day and repent thereof. It is hard to believe that there could be Christians who are involved with such wicked things, but it is true. I just wonder where they are in the faith. For if their faith was alive in You, then their eyes would already be opened up to see the evils of this holiday. As for me, all I want now is more of You and less of me. I want no appearance of evil in my life, for it would deter me from living in the Holy Spirit. That means giving up worldly things like participating in Halloween, watching horror/scary movies, playing violent video games, and more. If I fall victim to such things, my relationship with You will be tarnished. Therefore, it is not worth living a life of darkness, if You are not with me. Sure, the dark arts that Satan leads people in appears to be so good at times. Especially in the moment! But it is full of lies. There is nothing good in the things of this world unless You are moving in it. And I am only able to see this because You have opened my eyes and ears to Your truth. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, God. I love and adore You. You are everything I need to be happy. My life is empty without You in it. So God, please continue to do a mighty work in my life. I am so much happier when You are near. And Lord, please awaken my other brothers and sisters in the faith to the darkness of Halloween. May they also see the evils and wickedness in it and no longer participate in it again. You are worth giving up things like this. I love You, Lord. You deserve my attention. I give You glory! Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/28/2020)
Oh Lord, thank You for showing me things in the future. Only You could bestow a gift of prophecy unto me. Even on Tuesday, You showed me things from the future, and I give You the glory. Thank You for opening my eyes to see what was to happen. From this last vision, I can confirm that You are heading this march against abortion, and just need people who are willing to stand up against it. You can see my stance when it comes to this issue and wanted to reassure me that there will be a day when things are much different. If this day happens when You return, I do not know. All I know is that in the future, abortion laws will no longer stand. Thank You, Jesus. I am so grateful to know that there will be a day when all the millions of babies who are killed will finally end. Surely, only through Your mighty hand in good Christian lives can this take place. There is so much wickedness upon the land right now, but this does not have to be the end all be all. The times we live in can get better, but we must have faith. Sure, we are in a pandemic that doesn’t seem to want to end, but even that can end because You are the head of all things. By one word from You, God, can all the pestilences come to an end. Even through individuals in the faith, You can elevate our voices so that our stance against abortion, and other issues, makes a big difference. We cannot live this life alone and expect mountains to be moved, but with You in our lives, all things are possible. Even laws can be removed and made illegal that are called legal now. I believe in You, God. You can do great and mighty things through people who believe in You. I love You, Jesus. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/27/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will get out and vote next Tuesday. That they will not let their vote be uncounted, for we need to stand up for what is right in this nation. People should be ashamed that they are for abortion and that this law still stands. How the LGBTQ movement is now widely accepted, even in schools, which is ridiculous. That Black Lives Matters has grown so big that even stadiums have their logo plastered all over them, along with their jerseys. That they say they are for Black Lives, but in reality, they are causing more riots than ever before. While giving homosexuals a stronger voice in the community. This is so wicked, and I can’t believe there are even Christians out there that support these things. Oh, how my soul is disgusted by how evil this world has become. Surely, God, we are living in a time that far surpasses what took place in Sodom and Gomorrah, and how the people were like before Noah’s flood. The people were so far against You then and they are back with force today. Lord, I just wish the people would learn their lesson from the past and repent! We can’t keep walking in darkness and feel like we are saved. Only through Your blood that was shed for us on the cross, can we find forgiveness and mercy. And only You can take the blindness away from people’s eyes, that they might see the destructive path they are on. Surely, there will be a day that all the wicked will be judged and thrown into the lake of fire, but I pray that more people will be saved from this torment. And Lord, help people make the right choice and vote back into the presidency, Donald Trump. I believe in You, God. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/25/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that we will all do more than try to get along in a family, but learn to love as You love us. Sure, attempting to get along with our spouse and children is the beginning of a change, but the second and most important thing is to let You direct our paths. We can only do so much before our own plans break down and collapse before us. Therefore, we need You to show us how to love one another. Yes, God, we come to You on bended knees and plead for Your wisdom and understanding. Our own thoughts can only get us so far in life without things going sideways. But with You at the head of our everyday lives, we can do all things. What seemed like a lost cause in a marriage and a broken family can all be made new. Yes, God, I believe that broken relationships can become a thing of the past when Your love sets into our lives and others around us. For we won’t help but shine You light for all to see. How awesome will it become when families experience forgiveness, not only from You, God, but from family members and spouses also. In tears of joy will people learn what it means to accept those who were lost, back into our family midst with open arms. Yes, just as the prodigal son went astray and learned how far gone he was, he still returned and everything he had done was forgiven. This shows great mercy from You, as our Father God and also us, when we forgive people in our family the same way. I believe in You, Lord. Help us to truly learn to love our spouse and our children. That there will be no more bitterness and grief, but only joy, patience, and comfort. There is true harmony in our homes when You are in our midst. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/24/2020)
Oh Lord, even now we come to You, knowing that You can heal us like You did while You were with the people on earth. Not just for me do I pray, but for others who are suffering in this darkened world. At Your table, we bring unto You all our illnesses, small and great, and ask that You will relieve us of these sicknesses. Though we suffer now, we know that You have the power to cure us of the harshest chronic illnesses. I know that You do not wish to see us suffer but to bring us instant relief. Therefore, please come and heal my sicknesses of the throat and nose. And not just me, but my sister who is terribly sick and cannot find healing based on prescription drugs. She believes in You, and I know that You can heal her Lord. But not just her and me, but also another friend who can’t talk very well because of his sicknesses in his throat. Lord, many people are suffering because of the different coronavirus cases and we ask that You be their person of refuge in these difficult times. So many people in this world need You. Jesus, as well I do daily. Even every hour do I need You. You are the rock of my salvation. My fortress and my refuge in the storms. I have no need to fear, for You are there for me. One day I know that all the sicknesses and diseases will be no more. In death, You will come and wipe away all the tears from our eyes. There will be no more sorrow or death. What a wonderful place You are preparing for those who love You. I believe in You, Jesus. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/23/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that every person in the faith will strive to seek You daily. Even in constant prayer, Bible study, and doing Your will throughout each day. I love You and can’t wait to do the next best thing for Your kingdom, for You matter most to me. I just can’t see this enthusiasm in other people’s lives that I associate with. What they are doing on their phones, or watching or playing on their big-screen TVs is what matters most to them. Wow! How can people who say they believe in You and still desert You like this? Surely, they have become just like the prodigal son and aren’t even aware of it. Many have heard and seen the good news of the gospel, but have decided to live their lives for the world instead. They say, “I have a life ahead of me. So I got to live it to the fullest.” Again, all I can say is Wow! Why can’t people understand that living this life for You matters most? The riches we gain in this life cannot be taken with us in death. Nor can we come unto You worthily, having become so filthy because of our lusts. I fear that too many people are going to die one day and regret the things they did in this life. How they had opportunities galore to pray, read the Bible, serve in their church, worship You, be a witness for You, and serve in other capabilities that You would have had for them. Lord, these people may repent after death is set in, but it will be too late. So I pray that they will wake up to their sins today and call upon Your Name now. Then, can forgiveness be found while there is breath, and You can still bring forth fruits in their lives. I believe in You. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/22/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray for my marriage and my relationship with my children also. I know that there are days where we are divided on things we say and do, and it is very difficult to get through to them. This causes a rift between them and myself, where unnecessary arguments arise. How often do I wish I could take back what has been said to my wife and children at these times. And later I say sorry, but it isn’t always enough. This is when things get very difficult in the home, even to the point of people distancing themselves from each other. And oh how sorry I am for being a cause of this type of rift with my family. Our relationship could be much better, and it simply isn’t where it should be. I remember how things have been in the past when You are leading each one of us and it is awesome. That is when we are more calm, considerate, patient, kind, and loving. There are fewer arguments, but, instead, rational questions and discussions with a softer tone. Some people may think I am demeaning them in this softer tone, but if they just knew how much I loved them, they would understand. So Lord, take what is broken in my marriage and my children’s relationship now and mend it with the Holy Spirit. Lately, we have come together in Bible study each night, but still, I can feel a rift in my marriage and the relationship with my children. So help me speak the truth in love to them. And may their hearts be softened also, that we may begin having conversations one with another that does not end in arguments. I know that if Your love takes hold of my life and theirs, this marriage can last, even until death. I also know that relationships will become stronger than ever. So help me in my marriage and relations with my children. I believe in You. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/21/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people’s eyes will be opened to the evils of this world. Thank You for showing me how dark this world is, but I need others to also see it the way I can see it now. How so much darkness is now a part of people’s lives, even in the faith, and they aren’t even aware of it. Lord, I wish that people could see the destruction ahead of their lives, but I am unable to open their eyes. Therefore, come and be the ultimate witness to people when I and others are brave enough to get on the streets and declare Your truths to others. Yes, we need Your guidance, direction, understanding, and knowledge. We cannot convince any one person on our own part to repent and turn from their sins while following You instead on our own. Only If You are near and is doing the speaking can the Holy Spirit come and pierce the hearts of the wicked. This may not come with much openness, and instead resentment, but if they allow You to do the work in their lives, all that hurt will be transformed into gladness. Yes, God, all the people who are upset with the preacher who says Halloween is evil and very dark, will finally see the truth in what they are saying. Even to the point of not letting their children go out trick-or-treating, go to haunted houses, and the like, during the month of October. All their Halloween decorations would also be burnt up and destroyed. This, I pray, and I know that You can do all things. I believe in You, Jesus. Lead those people in darkness into Your light. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/20/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will come to know You. That they will draw near unto You, Jesus. Then, can You also draw near unto them. It is so vital that we allow You into our lives, and I pray that more people will do this, starting today. I wish that more people would understand the importance of coming to You daily in prayer, in Bible study, and through allowing You to use us for Your kingdom. I love You, Jesus, and if there is anything that I am lacking, please let me know now. If I am not being used for Your glory the way You wish, then tell me straight away. I do not wish to live this life thinking that I have been doing Your will when really it was my way the entire time. So please convict me of my sins, that I might fully repent. I am desirous now to fulfill Your every wish in my life. I will no longer stand idly by while people are not ministered to. Instead, if You desire for me to go out on the streets and be Your witness, just call me out. I will go and do as You say and do. I am Your willing servant and am humbled to be a worker in Your kingdom. Continue to use me and others valiantly for Your righteous cause. And cast out anything from mine and other people’s lives that are holding us back. It is our heat’s desire to serve You faithfully and not half hazard. I love You, Jesus. You are the way the truth and the life. I believe in You and am not ashamed of the gospel. It is the power of God in me. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/19/2020)
Oh Lord, I love and honor You. No matter what others may say, I come boldly to Your throne in worship and praise. Yes, Jesus, You are my King and I love You. Even now, do we come together and bow down before You. We confess our sins and that You are Lord. Only You have the power to save us from death and unto life. I have tried many different things, in order to find true happiness, and eventually, my eyes were opened. I discovered that love is only found in You. Nothing this world can offer me can ever replace the joy that I have found in You. Thank You, God, for coming down in the flesh and willfully dying for our sins. I am not worthy of Your sacrifice, and still, You have compassion over me, even to forgive a wretched sinner as I. Thank You for saving me from the destructive and sinful path that I was on and for placing me on Your righteous and holy path which leads to life. Surely, we cannot find the path which leads to heaven on our own, but only when You have come into our lives. Because I have decided to abide in You, You also abide in me. I am not left comfortless, for the Holy Spirit continually leading me also. I walk in newness of life, where there are new desires. Even my love for things have changed, for bringing joy into other people’s lives is where that joy comes from now. There are trials in life, but as long as other people are uplifted, prayed over, and cared for, I am more than happy. I love You, Jesus. Lead me this day and forever. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/18/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to read the Bible daily and find Your truth for themselves. That they will no longer be influenced by the teachings of men, but come to a realization of what is true in their life. That You will be able to show them what is false and lead them into what is truth. Your ways are true and faithful, and I pray that more people will be so desirous to learn from You also. There are so many evil influences out there, and I pray that You will cast them out of every person’s lives that say they believe in You. I only wish to see more people be saved, but this is really tough when people’s eyes are wired shut. But one thing I know of that can open their eyes is the Holy Spirit. So it is my prayer that You will pour down the Spirit upon these wonderful people, who are far from You now, but think they are near. Bring them into a loving relationship with You once and for all. Then, will they begin to see and discover for themselves what is the fullness of joy. No matter the darkness that is currently in their lives, You are able to scatter it. Just one word and every evil force will be cast far from us, that Your Spirit can dwell in us instead. I believe in You, Jesus. I love You, God. Lead me and others in the ways of righteousness. Don’t allow us again to be mixed up in false religions and false beliefs. Teach us Your ways instead. We do not wish to be led astray, but be on Your path, which leads to heaven. No matter if I’ve enjoyed a false teaching, rip it from my life, that I might run from it and into Your everlasting arms. I love You, more. This I pray, God, in the Name Jesus Christ. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/17/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to read the Bible for themselves. That they will no longer be tied down to the belief system of the church they are attending, but come to know if what they have been taught over the years is true or not. It is sad to know of all the many people who are on the pathway of destruction and aren’t even aware of this. However, just to be naïve about something, does not excuse these people for what they think they know and practice now. Therefore, I pray that people will become thinkers for themselves, outside their church. That this thinking will come from You and not other people’s influences. If people would learn to really put on Your armor, then there would not be any misuse of Your teachings in scripture, for the Holy Spirit would be leading them in the truth, instead of men. This is my prayer that people will come out of the different cults of our society today. That they will be drawn to You because of their newfound daily study in the Bible and prayer. There is true wisdom and knowledge from You alone, God, not from a person. I trust in You, Lord. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/16/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that members of the Mormon Church will come to a realization that their church is false and founded on lies. That they will understand how Satan was the cause of Joseph Smith’s deception from the beginning. How the devil knew that if he could lure this one man into believing a lie, then millions of other people would follow him. How conniving and malicious his desires have been from the beginning. And even now do I know that many of my family members are on this same path of destruction. Because they have been fed the various lies and false teachings in Mormonism, they are now much different Christians in their theology and religious practices. Surely, their other books have twisted scripture in a way that their beliefs are now built upon men’s ideas instead of Your own understanding, God. I am amazed at how people could have believed Joseph Smith when he said that he saw the Father and to join no other church, but the one he was going to build. For one, You said it, Jesus, that nobody can see the Father, and I believe it. Also, You said that “I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16:18) The enemy may have caused a stir in the church, by bringing about this cult and others, but this was known to happen. Even Paul predicted that people would fall away from Your church, which is Your body, Jesus. And that people would go after other gospels that look and appear so good unto men. Lord, I am saddened to know that a lot of my family is a part of the Mormon cult. I wish I could reach them, but for so long the doors have been closed. May You open those doors, Jesus, that I may lead them to You. Then, will their eyes be opened to the truth, while showing them what is false. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/15/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that every person who is a part of the Mormon Church will repent and come out of that cult, starting today. Oh how deceived they are into following false prophets. Surely, You have warned us over two thousand years ago to not be deceived into following people who say they are prophets and apostles and are not. But people have not listened and have gone their own ways into these dark paths. And I fear, God, that millions upon millions of Mormons are now suffering in hell because of what Joseph Smith did. He is such a liar, and although I am upset at what he has done to my family, I know that you are a just God and he will get exactly what is coming to him. I can’t believe that I was deceived for 33 years of my life into believing that Mormonism was true. And now most of my family are still under the deceptions therein. They cannot see the destruction that comes before them, but I can. You have given me eyes to see and ears to hear You. Therefore, I can see that this false prophet is leading as many people to hell with him. And it was Satan’s plan, in the beginning, to lead away people captive into following a false gospel, which appears good in their own sight. This makes me so mad, God, that people I know and love are under Satan’s deception, even now. I wish I could come to each of my brothers and sisters, and their families, and tell them the truth. That only You, Jesus, can save us. Not a religion, or our works, but only what You did for us on the cross can wash us clean. I believe in You, Jesus. Please give me opportunities to speak to my family and others who are lost. I wish to lead them to You before it is too late. I love You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/14/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that You will remove the blinders off of every Mormon person’s eyes. That they will begin to learn from Your hand and not by corrupt men any longer. There are many false beliefs in Mormonism, especially with their belief in many gods, which I cannot stand. Surely, this is such a terrible belief, for it is the same thing that Satan wanted from the beginning. Just like he wanted to be elevated to godhood, but then was cast down to the earth, now he wants his followers to think the same thing. Anything he can do to make a person believe they are on Your side but really are not is a part of his evil schemes. So Lord, break these chains of darkness in every person in that cult. I love the Mormons but cannot stand to think that they are on the pathway to hell because of their false gospel, teachings, and idolatry in their church. How can they continue to believe in what their false prophets and teachers are telling them and still feel good about themselves? Are they not reading the Bible, in order to fact check what people have said? We cannot believe everything a person says, for it could very well be blasphemy to Your Words. So, God, I know that most of my family are Mormon and that they are very lost in that faith. I love to visit and spend time with them, but in my heart, I wish they would be open to hearing and learning the truth of the gospel before it is too late. Would You please make a way for me and others to reach them? I know that even among my siblings are among your elect few, who are able to hear the true gospel message of the Bible and be saved through Your blood Jesus. Make this so Lord. I believe in You. I trust in You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/13/2020)
Thank You, Lord, for giving me words to speak this day. I knew that You desired of me not to go in my house and sit down when I got home from work, but to go forth and preach the gospel. It was so evident that even You sent a young lady to plead for me to go out and preach. Thank You, God, for sending her to my car, as I got home. I had witnessed to her many times in the past and this time she ran to me and told me how she was feeling. How in her house it is very hard for her to praise You, for so many wicked things are happening in it daily. That she needed prayed over and uplifted through the Bible and music. Surely, You sent her to me, to awaken me also. I was ready to go through my normal routine of reading the Bible, writing a devotional, and praying afterward, but today was much more than that. You were desirous that I would show actions also. How I cannot continue to go forth filling myself up with Your Word and not allowing others to be benefited from it also. And if You gave me a gift of preaching and teaching, I should very well use this gift while I still have breath. No sickness was going to bring me down today, for You had a word to share with people in my neighborhood. I know that I am not mighty in speech, but with Your words flowing deep in my soul, I can carry on for a very long time. Even do You bring verses from the Bible to my remembrance as I am preaching. I am amazed how many times it is word for word, for only You could show me those verses in the very hour I am speaking. Lord, I trust in You. Continue to use me as Your willing servant this day and forever. I love You, God. I give You praise and glory. Amen
Today’s Prayer (10/12/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that my ongoing chronic illness will one day be healed. That You will bring restoration to my nasal passageways and my throat and chest. It is difficult living with constant nasal and throat congestion and to find no relief. People have prayed for me and I have not been healed yet, but I know that if it is Your will, this will one day happen. But if that is not the case for me while in this life, then I will continue to preach the gospel and witness to the lost in my dire state. I will not let a sickness keep me from carrying forth the gospel message to the lost. Satan desires to have me, and for me to doubt You because of my afflictions, but that will never happen. Just like Job never lost hope in You, I will never stop praising You and calling upon Your Name. You know I love You, Lord. I live my life for You and am Your willing servant. So as Your servant, I will go out continue to write daily devotionals and to bring lost souls unto You. If I am still sick years from now, this may be more difficult in the flesh, but not in my heart’s desire to serve You. And Lord, I do pray that many people will join in and pray for me and others also. I am not the only one who suffers from a chronic illness, day in and day out, and cannot find relief. This type of life is terrible and others also need not only Your healing power over them, as I do, but also a relief. We trust that You will come to our rescue and lift us up when it feels so dark. One day, all this sickness and disease will be over. Because You have said it, I believe it. I can’t wait to be with You in heaven, Jesus, and no longer have to experience sickness or death. I love You, Lord. I give You praise and honor, this day and forever. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/11/2020)
Lord, there are so many people in this world that need forgiveness. This world is very dark and it isn’t just because of how sinful it is, but because people are also depressed and very sad. Even now, there are people who are desirous to take their own lives because of how they have been hurt. So many people just want to find true love and joy that lasts, but are unable to find it. It is because You are not only missing in their lives, but also forgiveness from their family and friends are missing too. Wow! How broken has this world become? Where a lot of family members are not even talking to each other anymore, let alone visiting each other. A text here and there is more like it, where that friendship they once had is now missing. And God, if love is missing among family members, people won’t help but try to find love through friends instead. Finding love through our friends is fine, but when these same friends also hurt us, then it can be very difficult to think anything good of ourselves and others. So Lord, what people are missing is Your presence in their lives. If You were with them, then forgiveness towards one another would come naturally. You would be able to rip out of our lives every feeling of bitterness and anger, while replacing them with Your love towards one another. So if people have hurt us, our desire will be to come to them and forgive them. We will strive to fix any family relationship problem with open arms. But if we cannot look past ourselves, then that depression will continue to set in. It isn’t until we allow You to help us love one another as You love us is when true love will be experienced in this life. I love You, God. I believe in You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/10/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people’s desire to read and listen to the Bible daily increase. I just don’t understand why only a few people who say they are Christian or believers in You, Jesus, actually study Your word daily. But still, they find time to watch their favorite TV Shows and movies. Even do they find time using their phone apps, along with their computer and gaming consoles. What we have God is that priorities are messed up. And if they do not repent and start making time for You, then souls will be at stake of going to hell when they die. How awful would this be, God? For it is a fearful thing to be in Your presence, knowing that we willfully sinned against You and never truly repented. How we made other things our idols, while not allowing You to be the God of our lives. And I remember something very specific that You said, Jesus. You called every person who believes in You to seek first the kingdom of God. It wasn’t telling people, “oh, do this if you want to. It is just me advising you of my will, but do what you want and just believe.” This would be blasphemy and I pray that people do not think this of You, God. But we do have people who think that repentance is of the past and is no longer needed. That faith in You is enough. Wow! Didn’t you say to “repent ye, and believe the gospel?” I believe what You have taught us. If people would just read or listen to the Bible daily, then they would have Your truth in their lives. They would no longer be led by their own flesh, but by the Holy Spirit. This is why I study Your Word daily, pray often, and seek Your hand in my everyday life. I want more of You and less of me. I say cast out anything that is holding me back from going all-in for Your kingdom. I love You, Jesus. I believe in You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/09/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to start praying for themselves and others. That this desire to pray will be increased more than ever before. I love to pray and to know that You are so near. Surely, I have done some terrible things, but Your forgiveness and mercy are ever for me. Thank You, God. I wish every person would understand how merciful and kind You really are. You are always drawing us back when we fall into sin. You are slow to wrath and gracious to forgive us when we do return. Wow! What a great God You are. It is because You are so good to us that we know that You can build us up to do mighty things in Your kingdom. Even the Holy Spirit can do healings and other miracles in and through us. Therefore, I know that each time I call upon Your Name, I will receive answers and help for my needs. Even people who are near me and far distant will receive strength and comfort because of my prayers for them. We have been taught through Your Word to always keep You in our remembrance, and also the needs of other people, and I finally know why. The commandment to love You with all our heart, mind, and strength, means to look to You in faith, even in constant prayer and supplication. And we love our neighbor by not leaving them out of our prayer requests. Lord, we know that You can do great and mighty things through people who put their trust in You. I believe in You. I love You, my Lord Jesus. Keep me ever in Your presence. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/08/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that we will all become more loving and kind towards one another. That all of our lustful and covetous thoughts will be cast out of our lives. That we stop our selfish ambitions and learn how to be selfless in all that we do. We cannot do anything good unless You are with us. We cannot learn how to be loving towards our neighbor, unless You are leading us. For many years did I think that I could gain all the earthly treasure in life, and then gain happiness from those things. However, I was so wrong. These worldly treasures all became useless over time, and I always needed something better. There was never true satisfaction for what I had, and this joy I thought I had never lasted. Thank You for opening my eyes to my lust, that I could finally discover what true love and joy is like. It isn’t found in earthly treasures, but in doing the will of my Father. Yes, Lord, doing Your will is what leads me to true happiness that never fails. I can now love my neighbor as myself, because Your love is in me. Thank You, God. I love You. I believe in You. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/07/2020)
Oh Lord, I pray that people will begin to see how far they have strayed from You. That they will finally see how conforming to this world only blasphemes Your holy Name. That it breaks Your heart when we fall into sin. If people just read the Bible, they would know right away where they stand with You. That they are not a friend to You, but a friend to this world and repent. We are getting very close to Halloween and many of these so-called Christians have their wicked and vial decorations outside of their houses. It is so disturbing to come home from work and to have to drive past all of these decorated houses in my neighborhood. It makes me want to scream, but I know that I cannot make a scene and have it be helpful to them. Instead, I will go forth and witness to them when the time is right. Even in Spirit and truth will I go forth and talk to different people. May there be love and respect for all these people. I wish that they would see how far they have fallen, but only You can do this. Only by way of the Holy Spirit can people be drawn out of the ways of this world and into Your awesome presence. So give me words to speak to these people. Show them dreams and visions that will also lead them out of this evil practice. You are my God and I worship You. I just pray that more people will desire to follow You the whole year long. There should have never been a month set apart for Halloween, but Satan has put his clutches into people. And now it appears to be good, where it is so wicked. Lord, open people’s eyes to see the evils in Halloween and no longer participate in it again. Give them clean hands and wash them of all these sins and others as well. I believe in You, Jesus. I love You more than anything this world offers me, God. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/06/2020)
Thank You, Lord, for this beautiful trip to Utah. It was so amazing to go to Salt Lake City, Provo, and Ogden, these last five days. At these different Mormon Temple locations, many people heard the good news of the gospel and also accepted prayer. You also led many of them to rethink their beliefs and to go home to study the Bible more. Praise God. I just pray that many of these people who listened to Your gospel message will also surrender to You fully. So many of the Mormons we talked to were convicted by the Holy Spirit and now it is up to them to come out of their false beliefs and their sinful nature, while coming unto You instead. I love You, Lord, with all my heart, mind, and strength. Nothing I once knew means anything if it goes against Your perfect will. Thank You for conforming my fleshly desires into Your will. I may not be perfect, but You have placed me on Your righteous path and I am no longer on the pathway to hell. And because You set me free, I know that You are able to set the people free in Utah. Open up their eyes to see. And not only them but all the Mormons throughout the globe. Draw them all unto Yourself and begin to do a mighty work in their lives. It is my desire that they will start thinking clearly for themselves and no longer be led by what their false prophets and other people are telling them. Our belief system does not matter in the end, if it goes against You. So help every Mormon to realize this, even if their prophets have told them that certain beliefs are because of modern-day revelations. Nothing will ever go against Your Word and find favor in Your sight. I love You, Lord. May Your ways continue to be my ways. Amen.
Today’s Prayer (10/01/2020)
Oh Lord, I love You so much. You the reason why I live my life. I have a purpose because of Your compassion. There is mercy, because You forgave me of my sins and my false beliefs. Thank You, Jesus. Since I was baptized in 2015 all I’ve wanted to do is tell people about You, Jesus. I was not afraid anymore, for You were now with me. Thank You for pouring the Holy Spirit into me that day. I have not been the same since. It is because You love me so much is that I was chastened. You saw the things that needed to be removed from my life like the TV shows I watch, music I listen to, video games, and other bad habits. And now I have plenty of time to seek You in Bible study, prayer, and witnessing on the streets. Surely, I have had some amazing times while in Your harvest and I give You praise. I am also amazed how You gave me eyes to see people with respect. So when a beautiful lady comes up to me or I see her, I am able to not lust upon her. Wow! That is so awesome, God. Only You could break the chains of addiction in my life. Even the bondage of pornography. That secret sin almost ruined my marriage and I am so grateful for setting me free from it. Lord, You have done many great things in and through me. Thank You! If there is selflessness in my heart towards others now, it is because you are there. I am nothing without You. I cannot accomplish anything good in Your sight unless You are with me. Therefore, I need the Holy Spirit with me at all time, in order to lead people to You. So continue to use me for Your glory. I love You. Amen.
