“For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.” (1 Peter 3:12)
Oh Lord, I come to You now and sit at Your feet. May Your presence come into my life and speak to the inner parts of my soul. Help me to sit down awhile and take in everything that You would wish to counsel me in. I do not wish to be defiant or do my own things any longer, but be Your willing servant. You are what I need in my life, Lord, and the joy that You have to offer me is what is the most fulfilling. I don’t need the luxuries of this world to find happiness, for doing Your will is what makes me the happiest person alive. You are so great in the heavens and earth, and I am so blessed to have You my life. I am amazed that the God of Abraham wants to be a part of my life. There is no one like Your kingdom, for You, my King is great and should be honored and praised, over all people on the earth and heavens above. May Your Name be lifted up high. Whatever You have for my life, be it unto me according to Your will. I am so much better off when I trust in You, and not my own desires. Even my beliefs have meaning when they are built upon Your Words in the Bible and on prayer. What You have spoken is all I need to find peace and direction in this life and the next. Thank You for coming down, Jesus, and redeeming Your people, and even Your adopted children from our sins. We may not be Jewish or be of the Israelite seed but are blessed to know that You died for our sins on the cross. This is the greatest sacrifice for mankind, and I am grateful to be forgiven of my sins. I have freedom from sin, because of what You have done. Your mercy endures forever, and I am so grateful it is for me. I love You, Lord. All the praise and glory to Your Name. Amen.
Oh Lord, thank You for this great life that You have prepared for me, even from the foundation of the world. You knew I would be living in darkness while seeking all the wrong things until I found You, but You never gave up hope in me. So many times did You come and convict me of my sins, in order to draw me unto You in repentance. I just didn’t listen and obey. In my early years, I was very defiant and reckless in my bad choices, because of the lusts of the flesh, but You continued to come after me anyways. Not once did You stop believing in the person I could become. I just needed to stop and believe in You. And so I finally listened and poured out my heart to You in prayer. In my confessions, the guilt was no longer hanging over me, but only Your love was there. I may have distanced myself from You, but in this moment You were drawn near to me, and my life has never been the same again. That one prayer has changed everything about how I live my life. Because You were there for me then, I knew that You would be with me now and forever. I don’t have to worry about having the guidance, and counsel that I need, for You deliver it to me daily. In prayer, You have spoken to me and breathed into me new life. If I am different, it is because the Holy Spirit is in me now, which is the comforter. Thank You, Lord. I give You glory and praise. I sing out to You and give You thanks because of Your mercy and grace. You are so good to me, God. I love You with all my heart, mind, and strength. I am strengthened, because of Your love in my life. It is a pleasure to offer You my life. What I do with my time now is to serve You and to proclaim the Name of Jesus to the world. Amen.
Oh Lord, I love You. You are worthy of my praise and worship. I honor You this day in my song to You Lord. I sing to Your great Name, God. I exact You, Lord. Because You are in my life, I am so happy. There is so much joy in my life, and it is all because of You, and what You have done for me, God. Thank You for hearing my prayers and for sending down upon me Your bounteous blessings. I have never deserved so much love and affection that You have demonstrated towards me, but You saw potential in me that no one else could. I was so lost within the world and seeking the pleasures of the flesh when You found me. Lust had taken me down and in my sins, I cried out to You in my confessions. I was so distraught when Your presence came over me and gave me hope. I never knew what this mercy could be like until I experienced it for the first time in that hour. You have come and changed my life. I am not the same person anymore, for You are with me now. My Savior has come and I have been redeemed. Thank You for Your mercy. Thank You for forgiving me of all my sins. It is because of Your blood, Lord, that You shed for us on the cross, that my sins are washed away. How precious is this gift of grace, and I will never take it for granted again. If I fall, I will repent and run back into Your arms. I know that You are a compassionate God, who cares deeply for my life. Don’t let the enemy take me down, but keep my eyes fashioned upon the cross. Then, will I know You, Jesus, that You are my Savior and my King. You came down to rescue me, and I am so grateful. I give You the glory and the praise. With all my love, I sing to You now with anthems of praise. Amen.
Oh Lord, help us fight the enemy. Don’t allow the enemy to take control of our lives any longer, but cast every evil force to be far from us. We do not wish to have any more demonic forces to have hold of our lives, but to be drawn to You instead. So cast out any evil spirits from us now, in Your mighty Name, Jesus. I call upon You now to lead us to safety and to destroy the enemy in our lives. Help us come out of a life of sin, that we may do more than say we love and believe in You, but also keep Your commandments. I know that if I am not able to resist temptation, I am unable to do this, but when the Holy Spirit is present, I can do all things. So I ask that Your presence will fall upon us now, Lord, as we pray this. We admit that we are a sinner and confess our sins openly to You now. We desire to have Your blood to cover us and wash us clean. It is our prayer that You will also come into our lives fully. Help us no longer be pulled into different directions while falling into different addictions and bad habits. Instead, lead us by the hand. Fill us up with fruits of the Spirit, that we may be a servant for Your kingdom instead of the flesh. The world only wants to deceive us into thinking that having pleasure in lust is ok, but Satan is a liar, and we pray that You will cast Him out of our lives once and for all. We do not wish to be a servant to sin, but a servant for You, God. You are our delight and not what the world offers. You are God and we worship You, Jesus. We need You, Lord, every day of our lives. Be near us, and don’t let us fall victim to the enemy. Build us up with Your armor and we will come out victorious. I love You, Lord. All I want to do Is do Your will. So lead me on the path of righteousness. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that Church Leaders, Pastors and Elders will repent if they are currently making a mockery of You in their church building. What they need to realize is that although they may own their church and such, it does not give them the right to bring in worldly things into their church and still say they are for You. These people need to realize that church is not about appealing to young people who are of the world. Therefore, I pray that if there is anything happening like worship leaders and pastors wearing NFL Jerseys or hats, singing worldly songs, or adding things added to their message that mention worldly movies and actors, that they will see the great sin in all of this and repent. My heart is saddened to have to leave a church that once served You, but has now fallen into doing the things I just mentioned above. For the longest time, Lord, did I feel the Holy Spirit in this church, but it has all been sucked out and replaced with the world. So I pray that You will speak to these church leaders and others at different churches. May their appeal be to bring people of all ages to church to find Jesus in their lives, and not to teach or sing anything that is worldly. Oh, how Satan wants to make churches appear like they are for You, but really they are far from You. Men and women of God can see through the masquerade that is happening in churches today, for the Holy Spirit is in us. Thank You for filling us God and leading us to good churches, where people are truly for You in how they act, and not against You. I love You, Lord. Continue to lead me and my family in Your ways. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people of all ages will see that I am for You. May they come to know how much I love and honor You with all my heart, mind, and soul. This isn’t just a belief that I can simply respond yes to when asked if I am a Christian, for I know that it would disrespect You if my heart was not truly for You, Lord. I know that even the devil and his demons know You and tremble. Therefore, if I say anything about You, it is genuine. To dishonor my king would bring dishonor upon me also. Therefore, I pray that people will see something different about me. May they not just think that I am for You by how I talk, but how I love and respect them. I pray that every person that comes to me peaceably, You will also bless, for it is in honor of You also. But I know that people that come to only combat me and to try to test my faith are Your enemies, of which there is no peace. These people are rebuked, for they not only trample upon what we believe in, but what You have done for our lives also. It is my prayer that such people that are hard-hearted and aren’t willing to hear You, will have the fear of God in their lives. Then will they know the destructive path they are on. Even some may repent and come to know You before it is too late. I do not wish to see any person I’ve known and talked with be thrown into the lake of fire, but be saved and go to heaven. You are our God, so speak life into those people that are ready to listen. Help me reach them with the gospel message. Thank You for using me for Your kingdom. I Believe In You. I trust in You. I love You, God. Amen.
Oh Lord, come into our lives and feed us every day that we have breath. Lead us from temptation and into Your love. We desire to know You greater and to have You with us always. With communion, we humbly come to the table and eat Your flesh and remember everything that You did while on this earth. We drink Your blood and remember what You did for mankind on the cross. You carried our sins, that we don’t have to suffer for them in judgment. Thank You, Jesus. It is amazing to have this knowledge bestowed upon us. I have hope because You are the bread that came down from heaven. Therefore, my soul is fed and I am not left thirsty, because You are in me. It is my prayer that I will live this life worthy of Your presence and never take communion unworthily. So please keep me on the straight and narrow path. Don’t allow evil influences in my life. I do not wish to have any distractions, but have a mind that is sober and fixed on what is needed for Your kingdom to grow. I know that You have a special plan for my life, and I only wish to fulfill Your wishes. So if I am doing anything now that goes against Your will, make it known to me. I wish to have every evil thing ripped out of my heart and soul, that I may serve my King with honor and respect. You are my God and I worship You. I don’t need earthly pleasures to be happy, but only the peace and love that You can offer me. I am joyful, because You have a hand in my life, and not what I can do on my own. I love You, Lord. To remember You in communion and during the week is all I want to do. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that we will continue to look to You in faith and not go off track. I know how the enemy wants to take us down the paths of destruction. His ways seem right on the outside but are always evil on the inside. If people could just see through what he is presenting and think upon it instead, then they would know that it goes against Your will. Now, if they had not known what the Bible says or have not been brought up in the faith, they may be walking in darkness and not even know it. So, Lord, we have two types of people, that as Christians we need to reach. We have people that have read the Bible but are now willfully living in their sins. Their conscience is seared, but they mask their guilt with more pleasure in the world. We also have those that don’t know what You approve and dislike. So we need to make this known to them while showing them respect and love also. This will help them get onto Your path, oh Lord. So, breathe upon every person that truly loves You the Holy Spirit. Help us be a light unto the world. May people understand that after death comes judgment. This can either be a wonderful time before You, Lord, or a fearful time. If people die in their sinful state, they will struggle to know what to say to You. They may try to justify their life before You, but really, having willfully sinned against You in death, there is no more forgiveness. Therefore, I pray that people will wake up to their sinful state and repent. May more people be covered by Your blood and no longer do things that displease You, but do Your will instead. I love You, Lord. Amen.
Lord, I pray that I will never stop seeking You. I know that prayer and reading the bible is important, but living out my faith is necessary also. So keep me on the right path which leads to paradise in heaven. I do not wish to be apart from You but to always be with You. May my life be inline with Your standards and not my own. Help me know when I have gone off course, that I may repent and be drawn back to You in faith. It is my delight when I can be renewed in the Holy Spirit and then walk in Your light once again. On the other hand, it is not my desire to just say a prayer and not be meaningful about it. How awful this would be to just say that I checked in with you and that was enough. If I ever do this, Lord, please convict me of my sins, for I know that I have gone astray into a life of sin. Lord, to not want You in my life is evil speaking. So please guard my soul. Take me by the hand all my days and make me clean through Your blood. It is my desire that You will cast out every sin in my life and replace it with Your love. From the east to the west, rip out of my life anything that deifies the temple of the Holy Spirit, which is in me. I offer my life to You as a living sacrifice to serve You all my days. And if I am called Your son, while being adopted into Your kingdom, then I am the most blessed person of all. For there is nothing I’d rather have, then Your assurance of You being my Father, and I being Your son. I love You, Lord. You are my Savior and the rock, upon which I stand. I give You everything that I am. I give You all the praise and honor, this day and forever. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that we will all be like David and be open to confess our sins before You. We are all sinners and need Your blood to cover us, and I pray that more people will desire to come unto You in prayer. Help people know that there is mercy and grace for them that repent and draw near unto You. I know this to be true, for You have extended Your hand of mercy upon my life, even after all I had done against You. I was very wicked in the lusts of my flesh, but still You saw past all of that I had done and gave me another chance, just as You did for David. You heard my cries and Your compassion never failed me. You continued to lead me back home, even the times I would fall flat on my face. I may not have had Your armor to build me up yet, but still You picked me up each time and put me back on my feet again. It was You, God, that kept coming after me, which gave me hope and peace for my life ahead. I knew that I was not alone anymore, for You were going to be by my side all my days. If I am strengthened now and have Your armor to lead me from temptation, it is because You have built me up. Your mercy and forgiveness has caused me to know what You have taught in scripture and live for You also. And because my love for You has now grown like a son to my Father in heaven, I do not wish to hurt You anymore. All I wish is that You are happy about my life and are leading it now, not myself. When the end of my days come, I hope people remember that You were my rock my firm foundation. That You are my Savior, my God, and my best friend. Oh, how I love You, Lord. All I want to do is praise You. May the way I live my life honor You and give You great glory. Amen.
Oh Lord, in my sickness I cry out to You for healing. I know that the pain I am going through will only be for a time and a season, and then I will be with You forever. My life is short, I know it, so I will endure in my faith until the end of my days has come. There is nothing I’d rather live for, then for Your cause, oh Lord. I am happier when You have my back and not the world. I am so happy to receive your peace in the good times and bad. While in the world, I can go through sorrow, but not find relief. However, with You by my side, there is love, peace, joy, long-suffering, compassion, kindness, mercy, forgiveness, and best of all, Your healing touch. That is what I need now, oh God, and I know that You will deliver me. Either from the pains of sickness. or to be freed from pain, while being with You in heaven. Either way, I am made glad, for this life is meant to do Your will and not my own. If I have lived out my life for You and it is now complete, then I will rejoice, for soon, I will see You, God. No longer will Your presence be with me alone, but I will see You with my own eyes. Then, will I be with You, my God, for all eternity. I can’t wait to see Your face and then run as fast as I can into Your arms. This will be a glorious day to be with You and give You glory. I rejoice, for You are my God. I am not alone, for You are with me all my days. I love You, Lord. Amen.
Oh Lord, thank You for this new life. I am made clean because Your blood has covered me. I am no longer in darkness, for You have come into my life and lighted it up. You have given me strength that I didn’t even know existed. Wow, what a great God you are. You are my rock and my shield. I can do all things because You strengthen me daily. The enemy has no match to Your mighty hand in my life. Therefore, I cherish this moment to come unto You in Your presence. Thank You for allowing me to know You personally and to be a part of Your family, oh God. You are my Father, and I am Your son. Have Your way in my life, and I will obey. I may have once wondered through this life, while in darkness, but now I am guided by the Holy Spirit. You have not forsaken me but have given me and others that believe in You a comforter. I now have eyes to see and ears to hear You. In my cries, You have come to my rescue and have redeemed my soul from hell. My life was never destined to be apart from You, so You continued to reach out to me, and in my brokenness, I finally found You in prayer. I have been set free from all forms of addiction, that sin may no longer take over my life, but Your love alone. I love Your ways, oh God. I’d rather have You near than to have anything this world offers. Therefore, continue to bear me up and help me walk faithfully, even until the end of my life. It is my prayer to one day be with You in heaven. Then, can I worship You forever and ever in Your kingdom. I love You, Lord. I praise Your holy Name. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that myself and others will discover You in an entirely new way. I am praying for salvation for every person that is now seeking Your hand and desires to be delivered from the current lifestyle they are in. So please come and direct their lives, as You direct mine. Help them discover what true joy is really like. When they find out what the Holy Spirit can do for them, then they will not want to turn back into their old way of living. In their brokenness, they will find out that You are merciful and kind. You have not forsaken us, but have willingly brought us into Your kingdom, that You may help us find the way. Thank You for extending Your arms of mercy out to me and for allowing me to be forgiven. I was once so far from You, but still You saw through what I was doing and saw my potential. Thank You, Lord. You have given me eyes to see and ears to hear You, and I rejoice just knowing that I am now safe. Even when the storms of life come my way, I know that You will be there by my side to help me through it all. I believe in You, Lord. Please forgive me for my sins this day. May I walk in Your light and be guarded against the enemy at all times. I need You every day, Lord. So please help me stay on course. I give You my whole life to serve You. Have Your way in me. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I am so grateful for the atonement You made for our sins. Because of what You have done for us on the cross, there is no more sacrifice needed for sins. You already made a way that we might be forgiven because of the blood You shed, that no other blood would have to be shed again. Thank You, Lord. I am so grateful that You did come to this earth, in order to redeem Your people, even the gentiles that believe in You, from their sins. Because I am adopted in, I am able to experience the blessings that You have bestowed upon Your people. What a great gift, of which I cherish every day of my life. Thank You for allowing me to be a part of Your kingdom, God. I may have been defiant and not worthy to be in Your presence in the past, but now my heart has been changed. You have transformed my life, and now all I want to do is do Your will and not my own. It would be selfish to live out the lusts of my flesh any longer when I could be out doing work in Your harvest. People are hurting all around the world, and I am grateful that You have sent me and so many others to help them. We are Your hands and feet, and for You to move in our lives, brings us the greatest joy. I don’t have to have the best things in this world to be happy, but the best things that You have to offer me. These things that You offer I can take with me in heaven, of which I am much more happy with. Surely, the pleasure in this life will end, but Your love never ends. So be with me all my days. Come and make a place in my life, that all darkness will be scattered. I love You, Lord. Amen.
Oh Lord, I love You. I don’t just say this but mean it God. You are the best part of my life. No person or possession I own takes precedence over my love for You. For how can anything match the joy that You have delivered me. You are my greatest delight and I lift You up in praise. I know that if I have done anything good in this life, that it comes from You. In Your strength, I am able to care for needy and preach the gospel with boldness. Even Your commandments have become honey to my taste. I love to walk in Your ways and do as You say. Speak to me Lord, and I will obey. Whatever You wish to teach me, counsel me in, call me to do, ask me to help, comfort, pray for, love on, or teach, I am ready to answer Your call. Thank You so much for hearing my prayer two weeks ago and for helping this young lady give her life to You in prayer. I am so happy to know that she is reading the Bible daily now and cannot put it down. This is a testament about the Bible and how it is so powerful. Lord, the day that You first spoke to me I was in tears and ready for my next journey in life. I am now thrilled when I now hear Your voice, for You have something great in store for me. You are my God and I worship You. I am Your son and so blessed to be forgiven and have found grace and mercy in Your sight. I love You. Amen.
Lord, help us live out a life that glorifies Your Name. We know that we are incapable of doing this on our own and need Your help to accomplish this. So we ask that You strengthen us in the Holy Spirit. Build us up in the Word of God, that we may know what You say and abide in it. Help us understand the need to pray and find answers to life’s questions, and also experience healing for our lives and others. You can do so much for people that will just put their trust in You. It is like Your arms are open all day long, and are waiting for people to just reach out to You in prayer. Then, will You take them home and transform their lives. Surely, only You, Jesus, is the light of the world. No darkness is found in You at all, which gives me hope of living a life that is much better than even now. I may not be the best person, but I strive to live for You, oh Lord. I know that I have fallen into sin, but I am so sorry for these times that the Spirit is grieved. I do not wish to hurt You and our relationship any longer, so I pray for Your forgiveness and mercy. Since light is found in You, cast out all the darkness in my life and other people that pray this prayer. Give us over to goodly things that only come from heaven. Fill our lives with things that will benefit Your kingdom. Help us have clean thoughts and also live out our lives with morals. I know that as I abide in You, I will not fall back into my bad habits or addictions, for with You they are no more. In my old man, I had these instincts, but now I have things that are Spirit-led to do, which brings me joy. I do not wish to experience any more temporary pleasure in things, but only experience Your love that lasts. I love You, God. I praise You, Lord. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that Your presence will come into our lives, each day that we live. This way we will continue to make the best choices and stay on solid ground. You are our God and can do all things for our lives if we but believe. Thank You for the Bible. I am grateful to know what You have taught us in scripture, that I may go forth and walk out my faith knowing it is Your will and not my own. It is my desire to walk in Your light and no longer be taken over by the lusts of the flesh any longer. Help me put my sins behind me, that I may become Your disciple. What the enemy has done to me needs to stop, and only by You defending me at all times can this happen. Therefore, I call upon You now and forever for Your protection, dear Lord. Help me to walk out my faith and not be given over to temptation and death. Lead me from the darkness of this world, that I may be a light unto those around me. I may not have it all together, but with You, I am complete. You satisfy my soul. If I just have You to love me, I am blessed. I don’t need the things of this world to be happy, but only Your love. You are the reason why I have breathe, and I give You praise for waking me up each day. I love You, Lord. You are the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I wish I could tell everyone about the gospel truth of the cross and resurrection. May more people be open to learning about what You’ve done for them, that they will also be saved in Your kingdom. I would be selfish if I wanted to go to heaven and not bring people with me. I trust in You, Lord. I believe in You, God. Amen.
Lord, it is my prayer that people will not say things that will hurt others, but uplift them as You lift us up. Who is it for me to judge people, for You are the judge, oh Lord. People have a soul like I do, and I do not wish to see them be torn down because of my actions. Instead, Lord, I will bring them to You through the Holy Spirit. Give me Your words to speak and I will declare it. I will be a light to the lost generation, that they may discover You for themselves. Help me to not start fights, but conversations that end in the person coming to know You, Lord. I wish to have people know Your love and then have them want to have it in their lives also. I would be selfish if I kept what You offer me all to myself. And Lord, I know that many people that do live apart from You are in sin, but may the Spirit convict them of their sins and not me. I wish to bring them to You, that You may start doing a mighty work in their lives. And if people that I meet are in mourning, because of a lost loved one, help me to comfort them, as You comfort me. As I pray for these people, wrap Your arms around them also, they may find peace. If at any time my flesh wants to speak out and say things that are negative, please catch me, even when those thoughts are in my mind. Give me counsel in that moment, that what I do speak will uplift the person and not tear them down. I wish to be there for people, and not be a burden. Thank You for delivering peace to my life. You are my healer and my Savior. I may have lived a defiant life against You, but still have You forgiven me. Thank You, Lord. I was lost and You found me. You breathed in me new life. If I am anything of worth now, it is because You have made me this way. I give You all the glory. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I love You and only wish that my children would love on You as well. May they come to know You like I have come to know You personally over the years. Shine down Your light upon me, that they may see You in me. Help me be an example of what it really means to be a Christian, that they will see Your love in me and want to know how to have this love in their lives also. I know that I can only be an example of the faith and try to raise them that way, but my daughters need to choose for themselves to give their lives to You. I just pray that they will see the need to trust in You and not just believe in You, because I do. I don’t want my kids to have faith simply because of their parent’s faith, but decide to have faith for themselves, which leads to salvation. So even at a young age, give them over to know what is right and wrong in Your sight. Help them not be confused with things, because the world teaches differently. May they know that what the Bible says is the true authority and if things go against what You have said, then it is wrong. All I wish is that they would want to know what You, and then follow You in faith. We only have such little time in this life before our life is up, so I pray that my daughters will give their heart, mind, and soul to following You before that time comes. It is my prayer that when their time does come, and then judgment awaits them, that they will be ready. Then, will there be only tears of joy to follow. For they are now with the king of glory forevermore. And I will be with them, for as believers, we are all made sons and daughters in Your kingdom. I also pray for my wife, that she will be with us in heaven also. I love You, Jesus. I trust in You. Amen.
Lord, I am sorry if I have portrayed myself to be something for You, but have not lived up to it in the inside. I know that many times I have said things are wrong, according to Your Word, when I myself have had that same issue. And it breaks my heart when I go against Your will. So cleanse me this day of all my sins. Fill my life with Your love. Help me walk in Your light. I do not wish to only appear righteous but to be made this way through Your presence that is within me. I know that I cannot do anything good, if You are not the one leading me. So please lead me in Your light. Help me to not fall into temptation, but build me up in Your armor. My flesh is weak, but I am strong with You in my life. I can do all things when You have a hold of my hand. It is my desire to not only appear like I am Christian but really live this way from the inside out. This is my life long desire. I am sorry if I have not met the expectations You have had for me, up until now. Please forgive me, Lord. I no longer wish to make a scene, but humbly do as You have called me. It is better for people to see You in me than to want to follow what I do. What is there about me that can save them? Nothing. Only You can save us, dear Lord. Therefore, may the Holy Spirit be with me always. Help me understand the Bible better, that more people will be drawn to You. I wish to see more souls be saved and go to heaven one day. So convict people of their sins, as You have convicted me of my own. May they also desire to be washed in Your blood. Cleanse them, oh Lord. Bring them into Your presence and lead them on the path of righteousness. This is the path that You have placed me on and I am so grateful. I love You, Lord. Thank You for forgiving a wretch like me. I praise You for Your love and mercy. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will prepare for Your second coming and not delay it. It would be very sad to see people that I know and love not be saved because they put off serving You, but the things of this world instead. It is true that where people put there heart and soul in, that is also who they become in life. Truly, the majority of people are not doing as You command them, but only doing as the lusts of their flesh desires. This really is frightening to know, Lord. You know who I am talking about, and I pray that people will desire to repent and then be refreshed through Your blood. Then, will they know how sinful they really were, and not turn back to their old sinful ways anymore. The signs of your coming is in our day, so people should be calling upon Your name in all their confessions, and not saying that You are delaying Your return. It is when people do this is when people put off following You, but do as the world says is ok instead. Therefore, people are out drinking it up, looking at porn all they want to, indulging in the homosexual lifestyle, having abortions, while thinking all is well. But Lord, this is so false and far out there. People do not know the pit they are digging for themselves, lest they repent. They also do not know what they are missing out on when it comes to Your love, and I am afraid that they will miss out on it for all eternity in hell if they do not turn from their sins and follow You. You are the Lord of all and are looking to see who is for You, not against You. So, God, I come to You now and forever at Your feet. Continue to use me for Your kingdom. Help me be a shining light for all the world to see. I wish to see more people be saved before it is too late. I love You, Jesus. Amen.
Oh Lord, please help people understand the need to pray. You have told us that all we need to do is knock and You will open the door to us. You are not hiding Your face from us, but only want to sup with us. If we could just have ears to hear, You would give us understanding. I know this to be true and wish that more people would desire to know You personally. There is a difference between saying a prayer that we have recited and say time and again than a heartfelt prayer, where we will really want to know You and have answers to our problems. I’ve gone down the road of saying quick prayers and I was never strong in the faith. I would continually fall into sexual sin and not have a way of it. Therefore, pornography took over my life, and I would be left trying to mark days when I haven’t looked at it, but then be burdened because I fell once again. You know these times Lord, but also that once I put my trust in You, then all these burdens washed away. You took my sins that were heavy upon me and put them upon Your own shoulders to carry. I am so grateful to know that You paid the price for my sins, that I don’t have to worry about them anymore. You heard my confessions and healed my broken heart. I had no way of escaping the evil lifestyle I was in, but You gave me a way of it. Thank You, Lord. I knocked and You answered. I may not be perfect in Your eyes, and far from that, but I know now that seeking You daily is more important than anything else. Without You I am nothing, but with You I am strong. I am able to deflect the temptations of the enemy and come out victorious with you by my side. I love You, Jesus. You are my Savior and the rock upon which I stand. Give me wisdom and others, as they start coming to You more often in prayer. I know that You will help them, as You have continued to help me over the years. Amen.
Oh Lord, give people understanding this day. Help them know if what they are doing is for You or against You. And if what people are up to is not in line with Your standards, convict them of their sins. People need to understand that repentance is not a bad thing, but necessary, in order for You to do a work in our lives. Surely, we cannot continue living in willful sin and think that we are ok in Your sight. People know already that they are in sin, but are only denying it, in order to continue to fulfill their own lusts. Even their conscience is acting up, and because of what they are watching on TV, looking at on their phones and other devices, places they go to, along with people they hang out with, they have become numb to what is good and what is evil. This is very disheartening and can only stop if people would allow You to come into their lives. Then, would they know that living a life pleasing for You also means changing our lifestyle to fit Yours. For how can the Holy Spirit come inside of me if I am continually looking at porn, going to the bars, doing drugs, watching TV and movies with bad language, killing, and sexual connotations, playing shoot-em-up games, and listening to the wrong music. The answer is that I cannot be on Your side and still do these things. So I pray that You will continue to work in my life and others. This way our choices will become righteous and holy. Even our actions and what we decide to do will also reflect this will to follow You. I love You, Lord. Thank You for leading me on the right path. I was lost, but You found me. Your blood has covered me and now I am forgiven. Thank You, Lord. I give You the praise and the glory. Amen.
Oh Lord, even when I am weak, You make me strong. You hear my cries and come to my rescue. I am not left alone in my tears, for You listen to every word I say and give me comfort. As You have said in scripture, You have also made known to me what a Savior is really like. I am not alone, for You are by my side every day of my life. When I wake, You give me new breath to live another day for You. I may be tempted, but You help me overcome them. I am led to safety when the enemy comes my way because You love me. Thank You for knowing what is ailing me at times, and giving me wise counsel, so that I may get through it. People may be hard on me at times, but still You help me know how to handle things in the best way possible. It is true that in Your service not everybody will be for You, but there will be people that only want to tear down Your message of hope. They may even say harsh things to me and others with me while trying to hurt us, but still I know where to go and what to say to them and others, for You are leading me. Even if people appear to be friends, but say things behind my back, I will press forward in faith knowing that they will see who I really am for You as time goes by. I can’t help it if people want to be mean to others, but only pray that they will see their wrongs and repent. So, Lord, I pray for any person that is going through trials and adversity right now in their lives. Bring comfort and peace to their heart and soul. Help them through the difficult times, that they may come out victorious with You at the head. Surely, we are not alone, for You are our God and our great King. I love You, Lord. I praise You and give You great glory. Amen.
Lord, I pray that people will make a decision to follow You. So many people claim to know You, but really only a few that follow You. These few that know, know what being born again is really like, but the rest have never experienced it. For if they did, they would not be the person they are today. People would be running to You and not turning back to their old lifestyle, which we see people doing now. God, it is hard to see people that I know and love go back to their former lusts while grieving the Holy Spirit. It is even sadder to know that they are now comfortable in their own way of life, which is very sinful, for they now believe that in their faith alone are they saved. This is very disheartening that there are pastors that teach this false doctrine of cheap grace. Lord, to many wolves are taking Your sheep astray, and I wish I could be a voice to all these people, that they may come to You know personally. It is my prayer that people will understand the need to pick up their cross and follow You. It is one thing to say they believe in You, but another to do as You have and Your disciples have taught us in scripture. We either love You or we don’t. We are either Your friend as we obey Your commands, or we are not. And if we are not on Your side, then we are only living for Satan. This is what I am afraid of, Lord. So convict these people that are living in their sins of the wicked state they are in. Help them know that a lifestyle that goes against Your standards is only choosing death and destruction. It is my prayer that people will start praying more and reading the Bible daily, that they may help them know what sin is and then confess those sins to You openly in prayer. Surely, You are ready to forgive us, as sinners, but we must desire to have Your blood cover us first. I believe in You. You the Lord of my Lord. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray for every person who currently has a problem with using profanity. I know how wrong this it, for it grieves the Spirit in me when people are using it. If only people could understand the importance of the Holy Spirit, then they would no longer be using evil speaking, but by seeking to say and do as You would have for their lives. There would be a transformation in people’s lives, if they could just allow You to rip from their hearts and minds every form of cussing, talking down to people, crude jokes, and anger problems. These issues are so prevalent today and no longer people can put on a good face at church and do these things, while still believing in You. The Spirit is speaking against such things, and I pray that people will confess their faults one to another, and more importantly, to You in prayer. People need to ask forgiveness for every foul thing that has come from their mouths. For they do not know the number of people that have also been offended by their swearing or cussing. People that love You, like I do, would never want to be a loose canon when it comes to our speech. Instead, we take every thought captive, that You may help us say the right things to people. Lord, it is my desire that people will put off their old man/women for Your cause. Then, can You transform their lives. I know how it felt when I was born again, and I wish that more people would experience this also. So come now into every person’s heart that says they believe in You, but are still living for the flesh. Give them a heart change and point them on Your path of righteousness. Then, will they understand that showing kindness and love towards others is much better than saying profane things. You are my God and I believe in You. Teach me to walk in Your light all my days. I love You more than anything this world can offer me. Amen.
Oh Lord, help us learn to love those that have hurt us. The weight that people carry because of the heartache they have caused upon people is already too much, for people to then hold grudges against them. If people could learn that as much as we want to be forgiven from You, we should forgive others also, then would this world be a better place. There would be more love in this world and less hate. There would be more joy and not depression. Families would come together and no longer be at war with one another. I know this is all possible, God. However, we cannot do this on our own. We need Your love to engulf our lives, that we may be transformed. So hear our cries now as we confess our sins openly to You. I am praying, but others that are in a family quarrel are also praying right now for help. Here us as we ask You to cast out all the anger in our hearts. Take away our pride and replace it with Your love. Help us to be more selfless in helping others, instead of selfish in what we can gain from people. And fix our eyes upon You, that we may know Your will in our lives, and no longer be fixed on what our flesh wants. I don’t wish to have anyone not find forgiveness from me, especially since I need Your forgiveness each day of my life. So if anyone has caused a rift in my relationship with them, help me be friendly around them still. May the words forgiveness come out of my mouth and in my actions towards them. People need to know that I am also sorry for being hurtful, and I also wish that people will forgive me. So I pray for other people that have also put up walls in their lives because of me, for You to take tear them down, oh Lord. Help every bad situation be mended by Your great love. I love You, Lord. I trust in You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray for this world that we live in. Too many people are caught up in their lust while causing so much pain and anguish in the lives of those around them. We have people that are then caught up in a date rape situation and even brothers and sisters are getting involved with each other sexually because of this. Oh, what a sad world this has become. Where Your laws are no longer honored and people don’t care anymore about doing Your will. If people could just see the lives of others that are now suffering because of their own pride and selfish ambitions. Then, would they understand that what they are doing is only causing people to be disrespected in a way that is abominable in your sight. Taking others for granted while our own pleasures are gratified is so wrong. And how can we go on with ourselves, when we have caused another person to be violated sexually? If people could just know how You feel about fornication and adultery, then none of this would be happening. And if it did, people would come to You quickly in repentance. There would no longer be people that are living in a sexual relationship outside of marriage. For the marriage bed would finally be respected in what You have called it to be. That is for a man and woman to leave their father and mother and become one flesh in marriage. As You have spoken, taking the purity from another person, because of our sexual endeavors with them is evil. Therefore, I pray that people will no longer cause people that are waiting for marriage to have sexual intimacy with their spouse, to force them into this beforehand. So put in people the Holy Spirit, that they may start respecting one another and no longer take them for granted. You respect our wishes, and I pray that we will start doing this for others. I love You, Lord. Doing Your will brings me the greatest joy of all. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will get their lives in order with You before it is too late. Too many people are wasting their lives on things that do not matter, and among them are people that are doing things that are very sinful and grievous in Your sight. Surely, their laziness, when it comes to watching TV and using their phones all day will catch up to them, Lord. You have so much to do in a person’s life and electronic devices are taking that precious time away from You. Therefore, are these people getting caught up in the lusts of their flesh, while not keeping You in their continued thoughts. Lord, people are now following the passions that are burning inside of them, and unfortunately, I have not seen it be for You, but other things. So they get caught up in having illicit sex with people while justifying their actions. Even people look at porn and think that since everyone’s doing it, it must be OK. Oh Lord, these sins are crying out to You, and because their hearts are closed off to Your counsel, can they not see their sinful lifestyle. It saddens me to see people get involved with other people’s spouses, because of lust and then seeing their families crumble in divorce. This is devastating not only for me to witness but for the children and spouses involved. It is my heart cry that people will wake up to their sins now so that things don’t get any worse. The outcomes of their lives can be much better if they just reach out to You in prayer. Sure, they may not know how to get out of the situation they are in, but You can help them. If people would just confess that they have sinned to You and tell You that they need You, then everything would work out for Your good. I love You, Lord. Thank You for rescuing me from a life of sexual sin, involving pornography and adultery. I am a new man because Your blood has covered me. Thank You for Your forgiveness, Lord. Amen.
