“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, our God, I pray that You will give me and others more boldness to share the truths of Your Words and Yourself to others. That we will never back down when we are threatened or persecuted. And please give us the words to speak. We cannot do or say anything good unless You are with us. Keep our eyes fixed on what needs to be done and to look all around for people who are ready to receive You, Jesus. Don’t let us feel like there is nothing else we can say to people, for You always have something to say. So often do we let ourselves get discouraged when things don’t appear to be going our way, but give us even more boldness to witness Your truths when this happens. I know that more people can be saved even among the rudest crowds, but only You can give us eyes to see them. It has been these times that I have not given up the preaching, the passing out tracts, the praying for people, and helping the homeless, and doors have opened up in a big way. And I give You honor and praise for what took place in those days of the past. I just hope and pray that more days are ahead of me and for others in the faith also. I trust that You will continue to guide my path, and I pray that more people will be guided by the Holy Spirit also. I trust in You, Jesus. Continue to use each one of us for Your greater good. I trust in You. I believe in You. I love You so much, God. Amen.
Oh Lord, I know of too many people who are on the pathway to hell. They include people in my family, friends, colleagues, and even some churchgoers that are missing a relationship with You. These people have both feet in the world and many know it too. God, talking to them about You is so difficult. They always see me as being judgmental just because I l want them to know You and be saved. If only people knew that my one true desire is to only help them draw near to You, Jesus. Do I have it all together? No. Am I perfect? No. But my life is dedicated to serving You in Your kingdom. What that looks like is up for interpretation. God, as I am fearful for the outcome of these people’s lives, I am still hopeful for some of them still. I have some wonderful nephews who are showing signs of coming to You. This is amazing. I truly hope and pray that at least one of them comes to faith in You soon, Jesus. As for other people I know, just to get one word in about You, Lord, is difficult. So I will keep praying. I love You, God. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will stop judging one another and defaming their good name. So many people attack different people in the faith when they know nothing about their deep and intimate relationship with You, God. This is very disheartening and I pray that if people have concerns about someone that they will come to the person themselves and not spread lies. And if people come to the person who they think is in sin or has said false things, then have them come to them with love and respect, not with any anger. Surely, a spirit of animosity is never going to help anyone come to know You, God, even if they are wrong. Lord, help people know that we cannot be the ones convicting people of sin, but only Your Holy Spirit. Therefore, we must be led by You and not ourselves. Otherwise, we may be jumping the gun and saying and doing something that we will soon regret. Lord, I have many people who think I am a false prophet and a false teacher, which is hurtful. They say that what I teach is wrong according to their own beliefs. Therefore, people have spread lies about me to other people and then come at me with anger and disdain. Lord, help these people know my true heart for You. May they know that I love You with all my heart, mind, soul, and strength. Everything I do in life is for You. You are my Redeemer and the Lord God of my life. I wish people would want to talk to me about my faith instead of attacking me. Now I know how Job was feeling when He was being persecuted by his friends and other people. Lord, may Your will be done in my life. I need Your understanding from the Bible and prayer. Teach me Your ways and don’t let my views change because of people’s own views on things. I love You, God. I give You praise and glory. Amen.
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.
Lord, I love You so much. Thank You for saving a wretch like me. You are so gracious and such a forgiving God. Your mercy endures forever. Thank You for delivering me from the path of destruction. I was on the pathway to hell until You delivered me the evil one. I thought I had it all figured out until You intervened and set my life in order. I did not know what showcasing love to my neighbor really meant until the gift of the Holy Spirit came into my life. I was wracked with guilt and shame most of my life, because of the lusts of my flesh. Only You could come into my life and tame those evil emotions so that they would not get out of control again. Lord, You have poured down from the heavens Your amazing gifts and I stand amazed every day that I have breath. You have given me the courage to walk differently than the world, even in Your holiness do I live my life. If I am made righteous, You have done it all. Nothing I could ever do could conform me to Your ways, oh Lord, but Your mighty hand. So now I wake each day and look to You in faith. If I am called to go on the streets and declare the gospel to the lost, I do it. If I am called to help a brother or sister in Christ, I run to their occasion. Even people of the world, I showcase the same love and kindness towards them, as I do towards the saints of God. This love pours through my faith in You and into the lives of everyone I am around. Lord, I know that You will soon return to this earth. Yes, Jesus, I am ready for that day and long to be with You forever. What a glorious day it will be when we will all reign with You, my king, on the new earth and the new heaven. My wish is to be able to run into Your arms. I love You, God. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that You will help me become the type of father I should be to my two daughters. Help me to also be the husband I should be to my wife. You first introduced my wife to me and we got married. Soon after, you gave unto us children and I am so grateful. I don’t always act this way and I am sorry. My children and my wife have specific needs and I pray that I may be able to fill their needs one day at a time as You lead me by the hand. Give me guidance and direction, that I might be led in doing things for them that also glorifies You in return. I know that I have not always been the best father to my children or the best husband to my wife. I have said some things that are very hurtful to them and I am so very sorry. So Lord, give me words to speak when I am around my kids and my wife. Even if they start to argue with me, help me speak in a way that will dissipate the anger, that subjects arise. I know that I am not perfect. I have done things that have caused me to not love my wife in the way she should be. But all this can be mended and be made whole once again. Not on my own doing, but with You helping me know what things need to be changed for the better. It does take three for marriages to get better, which includes You, and I pray that my wife will also learn to respect me as I love her. Help us both in these efforts. I love You, Lord. I give You praise. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will be rescued from their porn addiction. This is the number one searched for thing on the internet and it is so disgusting and wrong. It is hard to believe that people would allow this filth into their lives and not feel overly guilty about it. Yes, God, I pray that people will fully repent of these awful and wicked deeds. That they will see all the nudity as degrading people, of which only the enemy wishes we would do. Surely, so many people are under the grips of Satan and don’t even realize it. They do not realize that come death they will be found guilty because of their porn addiction, no matter if they said they believed in You. For we know that we cannot have the world and You also. We cannot ride our sinful ways and also feel like we are right in Your sight. Lord, I pray that people will wake up to their sins, even today. That they will see what they have been doing as very sinful in Your sight. Yes, God, I pray that people will be burdened because of it, that this guilt will lead them to You in prayer. Satan wishes that they justify their actions, but if they would just give into Your power in their lives, they would know how far they have strayed. I have seen this with my nieces and nephews in my family and it really makes me sad. Surely, they have chosen a path that leads to destruction. So, Lord, I pray that more people will humble themselves in all their confessions. Only then can they be set free and put on Your path of righteousness. I believe in You, God. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I have been saddened about abortion for many years. You know my heart and how I have been distraught by the knowledge of all the millions of babies that have been murdered over these 49 years. There has been so much bloodshed and people have simply excused these wicked events as being justified by the women’s rights. Just seeing planned parenthood buildings makes me get so angry inside. Truly, I am so grateful for the peaceful protestors that have come to these abortion clinics over these many years. It is a testament that Your love is flowing deep in their lives, even to the point of saving the least of these with the unborn. You gave me a vision of Roe vs Wade being overturned in 2020, but I never thought it would come two years later. This is so amazing and I give You praise for helping me know this before it happened. Because of this, I believe that You had a hand in today’s events in the Supreme Court. You caused different individuals to speak up and vote against abortion. This will cause a ripple effect in my state and others that have Republican governors. Thank You, Lord, for making this possible. I pray that abortion will soon become illegal and that people will see the evils in it, just like with the holocaust. This I pray, in Your Name, Jesus. I love You, God. Amen.
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, may we never forgot Your goodness and grace. May Your praises never escape our lips. You are greatly to praised. I honor You and rejoice in Your great Name. It is a pleasure to worship You, my King. Since discovering You, my life will never be the same again. Your light and holiness has come and breathed new life inside my soul. Thank You for delivering me from darkness and into Your light. I am so grateful to know You. I am humbled to serve You. To be a part of Your great plan is amazing. Thank You for delivering me from my sins. My chains have been lifted because of Your great love. Thank You for the cross. I will never forgot what You have done for me and all mankind. It is an honor to declare Your gospel message to the world. I trust in You. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that myself and others in the faith will remain faithful to You. That we will read what the Bible says and also obey Your teachings. So often do we read what is written, think about it for a while, and then brush it off. Instead of letting Your wisdom sink into our hearts, in order to change us from within, we go forth and continue to do what we’ve always done. I know that this is not Your will for us. Surely, it is very dangerous to think that we are saved when we are not doing as You command us. I know that I have done this countless times and I am sorry. So in this prayer, we come together as believers, but also knowing that we have done You wrong. Please forgive us and have mercy upon us, as sinners. We ask that You will have mercy upon us and lead us from temptation from here on out. We don’t wish to willfully sin against You again. Teach us Your ways and put us on Your righteous and holy path that leads to heaven. We are ready now to serve You, our King. We are ready also to not do things that will hurt our relationship with You, but to do whatever is possible to strengthen it daily. Receive us, oh Lord. Do a work in us that has not been seen before. I believe in You. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that all people, who say they believe in You will have their hearts, eyes, and ears wide open for You. Then, can You come into their lives and teach them the truth, where every false teaching is removed. This can happen if people are willing to learn from You no matter what. This can be hard, I know, especially when someone has been born and raised in a religion that is not true. It is true that You can see the corruption of different churches on earth. That there are some good Bible-believing ones, but many bad ones also. That is why we need Your help, in order to attend churches that You would subscribe us to. Not to join one for salvation, but to learn and fellowship with other fellow believers. Truly, You are the head of the church and we are Your members. Some your feet, some your arms, some your toes, but all in all, Your servants, serving You in our own way. Thank You for leading me in the ways of righteousness. You have helped me escape the Mormon religion and to trust in You alone, Jesus. I am so happy that their bad theology is now removed from my mind and my heart. I thought it would take years for this to happen, but the day that I began to read the Bible daily, my mind has become clear from all their false teachings. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, Lord. I love You. Amen.
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, there is so much I want to say. I am so grateful for Your great love for me. You have been so kind towards me, all these years. I have felt every minute of Your encouragement for my soul. You were beckoning me into Your presence even though I lived apart from You. You did not want me to be cast off. Thank You for never giving up hope for my life. I am grateful to finally realize that You do save. You are my Savior and King. I may have once thought that I was to wicked to be forgiven but I was wrong. Your love and mercy never fails. All I needed to do was come unto You in humbleness of heart and You were able to do a work in my life. You saw my confession with joy. That was all it took to transform me from death and into Your light. If I am different, it is because of You. You cleansed me from all my sins and gave me a clean heart. I love You. It is an honor to serve You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will no longer try to find fault with what the Bible says. If they would simply open up the pages and read it as a child, then You would be able to show them heavenly things. I have talked with a lot of people when it comes to street evangelism and social media outreach through Facebook. Many people have been receptive to what is written in Your Word, while one religious group has been against what I’ve written for You since the beginning. Because the Mormon people believe in and teach that the Bible is corrupted, this has led to them also having one of the hardest hearts I have ever seen. Now, looking back at myself while I was in that cult, it is a miracle that You took me out of it. All I can say is “thank You, Lord”. I am in such a better place now. I didn’t realize I was missing out on the presence of the Holy Spirit until I found You outside the confines of that religion. For this reason, all I desire is to teach Your truths, to lead people to You, and to give You praise. Wherever I am, I will glorify Your Name, Jesus. I love You, Lord. Amen.
Oh Lord, there is no one like you in the heavens and earth below. While others may lift up their favorite sports athletes, music artists, movie or TV stars, I am happy to lift You up instead in praise. There is nobody I’d rather follow then in Your footsteps. Other people have let me down over time, but You have never forsaken me. I thought that the riches of this world could make me happy, but really it was only in the moments that I had the good in things in life that I found joy, but it all passed as the newness of the items wore off, and other better things came out that I wanted instead. So I was always left feeling ripped off and never fully satisfied with what I had in life. This is not the goodness that You give, oh Lord. For what You do for us is never-ending peace, strength, hope, love, joy, happiness, mercy, forgiveness, compassion, and kindness. I never have to worry about going to anyone else for things, for You are the giver of all good things. What the world wants to do for me and give me doesn’t even hold a candle of the types of things You have already done and will do for me, as I continue to trust in You. Therefore, I am so happy to say that my life is better than ever before. Because You are my shepherd, I am fed and nourished each day of my life. You have lifted me upon Your shoulders and given me strength like eagles. Therefore, my burdens are not only on my shoulders but Yours as well. Wow, You are so good, Lord. Thank You for all that You have done for me. I love You, God. I trust in You. All the praise and glory to Your mighty Name, who saves. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that Mormons will stop closing their hearts to You and Your witnesses that are in all the world. We are only trying to help them know You, but they continue to have closed minds and hearts to what is true. They see us as a threat to what they believe in, and so they prey on the weak instead of hearing out what Christians want to share with them. Even today I was reading a message I wrote about Mormonism, and immediately my family thought I was the worst person to ever walk the earth. God, this is common in this household. I don’t understand why truth hurts so much, but it does. I can still remember when I was stuck in this cult. It offended me also when I heard people speaking against what I believed in. However, now I am glad that there were people so bold as to speak Your truth, no matter if it caused certain individuals to be offended. What I know, Lord, is that it is better to be offended in this life and come to know Your truth, than to be offended in the next and have no chance at being saved. You are God, Jesus, and I am grateful that You saved me. I love You! I give You praise. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will repent of their sins and no longer be willful sinners. You hear our cries but also look for people who are contrite in spirit and humble for You to work in. I just wonder how many people are sincere in their prayers or are continuing in prayers that are recited and not thought about. You have taught us to pray, but people have taken this way to far in reciting your prayers, Jesus, instead of learning about how to pray. Lord, I offer my life to You in all the sincerity of my heart. Take a hold of my life and don’t allow the enemy to have any part of who I am. I choose to live for You and not the world. Hear my cries and know that I am sorry for my sins. You have heard my confessions and I am grateful for Your forgiveness and grace. Have your way in my life. Use me for Your kingdom. Help me to reach people for Your kingdom. When I have tried to reach people in my own flesh, I have been unsuccessful, but when I have reached people with the Holy Spirit, there are many seeds planted in people’s hearts. My life is Yours. Use me for Your glory. I love You, Jesus. I give You praise and honor. You are my God and I will worship You all my days. Amen.
Lord, I pray for every person that is living a homosexual lifestyle right now. Such people are not right in their minds and only You can change their wicked hearts. There is salvation in Your mighty Name, Jesus, and I pray that these people will repent of their sins, that they may get right with You, starting today. There is still time for them to know the truth of what You’ve said in the Bible and be saved. I know family members that are now like this and I also pray for them, Lord. Lead these people and others out of the destructive lifestyle they have got themselves in, that they may find true joy which comes above. People can fabricate in their minds what happiness is like, but it is really only a fad that will not last over time, unless You have allowed it to happen in our lives, God. We can lie all we want to in our minds and say that it is truth, but still, it doesn’t mean that it is in Your will. What I wish people would realize, Lord, is that there is a major difference in the lifestyle of a true Christian who loves You enough to follow You, and another person who says they love You and continue to live in their willful sins. And when people do this, that is when life is harder then it has to be for their lives. Such people have often found themselves get very sick with Aids, STDs, and other autoimmune diseases, which could have not happened, if they were not living this way. And Lord, I believe that You are our healer. Even people that are sick in this way can still be healed when they give their lives to You. So I pray for every person that is still suffering because of the sickness they got while being homosexual, that they may be healed. In Your mighty Name, Jesus, I pray this. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray for people in this lost world. It is so easy to get caught up with life and the pleasures therein. Sin may appear good when we are first involved in it, but thankfully, You have given us a conscience, God. This way, I am able to come to a realization afterward that I was wrong and that what I fell for was sinful. I know that everyone in this life has the same conscience. Only a few, however, allow this conscience to be for their benefit. Truly, You want to help us, while speaking to our hearts and minds. If I didn’t continue to listen to these promptings, I would be like the majority of this world who justify their sins on a regular basis. And so we have evil appearing as good and good appearing as evil. This added comforter of the Holy Spirit is what I needed next and didn’t realize it. Thank You for sending the Holy Spirit into my life and leading me in the faith. You have saved my soul. I love You, Jesus. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people that desire to follow You will also trust in Your Words in the Bible. May they search the scriptures daily, that when they hear something new they can know if it is true or false. Your words are our map in this life, and help us stay focused on what is true and faithful. It is our own desires and wishes that lead us to think differently than what You have spoken to us in scripture. When we get caught up following a specific person or teacher, this truly can does a negative work in our lives. Because our time and attention is now given over to seeing what they are up to and teaching on a regular basis, your teaching become less important. Over time they may have lost all its value. Even false prophets can come into the scene and deceive millions of people, because people are more comfortable in what they can believe in, then what You have said in the Bible. This is deadly in every way, since malicious people are leading people down the path of destruction and people aren’t even realizing it until it is too late. Lord, if people could be more diligently seeking You, then this would never happen. So come into these people’s lives and break them down a level, that their pride may fail them. Come and teach them Your ways, that the darkness may leave them and Your light may enter in. Then, will they start reading the Bible like a child and absorb everything You have to teach them. Thank You God for leading me out of church that was not for You, but Satan. Mormonism had a stronghold upon my life, but You broke those chains. Thank You Lord. I pray that many more people in that religion will also be set free. I love You Lord. I believe in everything the Bible has to say and teach me. I trust in You. Amen.
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, I pray that You will open the eyes of the blind. As You have opened my eyes to the false teachings of Mormonism, I pray that this will happen to more people that are deceived. May their blinders finally come over this day. Penetrate their hearts with the Spirit, that they may see the truth and the false teachings they are under. I pray for an open heart and mind to know You. So many people are closed off to what the Bible says and even find fault in it. My heart aches just to know this. It saddens me to see people believe in a faith that goes against what Your Word says. I know that only You, Lord Jesus saves. It isn’t a church or prophet, it is my faith grounded on Your rock that saves. I am on solid ground when I follow You. It doesn’t matter what I’ve been taught all my life, if You say so, I believe it. I am willing to run from anything that doesn’t give You praise. My heart is Yours. I know that I will never go forward in life if I trust in my own or the thinking of men. I need Your understanding God. Your ways are my desires. I love You Lord. I want less of me and more of You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people’s minds and hearts will be turned to you. Spare the children, God, that are coming out of homosexual households. I don’t know how this is possible in my own mind, but everything is possible for You. I love little children and to see them being raised by two homosexual parents, or one, makes me sick inside. Why in the world do they think that doing this is ok? What is also sad is that many people that support the LGBTQ also attend church on a regular basis. Lord, I met one of these individuals the last time I went to a pride festival and protested it. He was hanging a pride banner in front of the Catholic church that he attended. God, I tried to reason with Him through the scriptures but he wouldn’t listen. Just like this man and other people that are trapped in the sin of homosexuality, their hearts are already fixed on what they know and feel inside is right. What they feel is what leads them, instead of allowing You to lead them, Lord. But I know that our efforts to reach the LGBTQ are not for nothing, for some people are listening and coming out of it. Praise God! I know people who were once homosexual but are now married and have children, and also are street preachers. This is amazing and I pray that I will reach more people like this. I love You, Jesus. Amen.
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, I pray that my heart continually is for You and not this world. May I not fall victim to temptation but be led on Your righteous path. May my love for You be extended in the work place and the way I treat my family. I know that greater things can happen with You in my life. Help me to live out my faith. I pray that my labors will not be vain. May You do a work in my life. Help my mind focus on building up Your kingdom. Help me to love my children as You love them. Help me raise them up to know You. May the Spirit of God shine down upon me. Empower me by the Spirit. I pray that You do use me in a big way. Take my hand and carry me forth. My heart is Yours. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that there will be many more people who receive the gospel and are saved, than those who reject it and go to hell. I am afraid that the majority of people that die are waking up in hell, which is very sad. They had a choice in this life to believe in and follow You, Jesus, but they chose a different path. I wish I could reach these types of people before they take their last breath, and know that You will lead me to many of them still. There are certain people who are anxiously looking to do what is right, so when they hear the good news of the gospel they respond with joy. Praise the Lord. Yes, God, these are people I love to meet on the streets and on social media. Not those who wish to heckle me in the faith. People who like to bring up conversations in order to argue with me are not worth it. Unfortunately, I may be the last people they talk with about Jesus and they denied their chance to be saved. That saddens me to think this. To think, God, that many people have been so close to giving their lives over to You these many years, but something insides of them stood in the way. Yes, their flesh gained control and didn’t wish to give up their worldly lusts for You. Thankfully, there are some who hear about You, Lord, and are saved. Thank You for them. I love You. Amen.
Lord, shine bright in our lives, that all may see You through us. May people begin to see Your great love in all that we do. It is an honor to serve You and to bring joy to all men, women, and children. I love to see people happy and this is because You have made me the happiest of all. I don’t wish to keep the love that You have given me to myself, but share it with all people. More importantly, I am grateful for this calling in my life to help the needy. My heart breaks to see homeless people on the streets, and to bless them with things they need is the least I can do. Because you have blessed me with such good things, it is the least I can do to bless others also. Thank You for putting on my heart the things I need to have on me at all times, so that I may always be ready to meet the occasion of anybody in need. Lord, if I am in the store, help me spot people that cannot pay their bill, that I may step in and do so. And while I am on the streets, help me always have my eyes open to people that are homeless or are pour. This way I will be able to pray over them and help supply any of their needs. Even if it is a coat or shoes I am wearing, I am ready and willing to give them away, for these people need them more than I do. I love You, Lord. It is my prayer that more people will have this heart of giving to others also. Then, will this world be a better place, where real love is shown to people who need it most. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will desire to learn follow You, by reading the Bible daily and praying to You often. It is one thing to know what the world teaches, but to follow those things is another. We need to be vigilant in knowing what is right and what is wrong, by way of what You have taught us, that we may walk in Your righteous path. Otherwise, we will only gain the wisdom of man and ultimately do things that You hate. I know this to be true, for I was once far from You and full of pride. In my sinful state did I think that I could just get away with my sins. I thought that what I was doing was pleasing to the flesh and if I was wrong, I could just repent later. How foolish I had become. Surely, because of sexual sin, my desire to know You was given over to pornography and adultery instead. And that was not doing any good for me, but harmful to my self-worth and my marriage. You saw me in this wicked state and wished that I would return to You, but my eyes and ears were turned form You. It was my flesh that was getting in the way of being saved. However, when all these things started crashing down on me, I knew that You had given me another chance. People may not trust me for a while, because of what I had done, but I knew that You could. In prayer, I came to You in my brokenness and You heard my cries. I was so sorry for everything I had done and wished to be forgiven. I wanted to start over and be cleansed from all my sins, and You did it. You had mercy upon my soul that day and put me on the right path. I was so foolish in my thinking, but now I am wise in Your ways, oh Lord. Thank You for Your compassion for a sinner like me. I can never repay what You did for me, but stand up for You as a witness. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, there is so much to learn and gain from Your own prayers, especially the one you gave in John, chapter 17. What you’ve taught me Lord is that as we ought to glorify You, as You glorify the Father and He in You. We ought to be one with You, Lord, as You are one with the Father in all words and actions. Everything that is good and joyful in this world comes from You Lord. The same love that Your Father gave You, You have manifested unto us all. You are so selfless and kind, always thinking of others before Yourself. I just pray that I will become like You, Lord and be as humble of a servant to You, as you are to Your Father. May I glorify Your Name in my words and actions, as You are so deserving of all our honor and respect. Lord, come into my life. Abide in me, that I may abide in You. Be one with me always and through the Father’s protection, lead me out of every sin. I no longer wish to disrespect You in any way by my sinful actions. Instead, cleanse me of every sin, that I may be used for Your good. Send me off as Your servant, that I may do whatever work You have for my life. My life is Yours, my God. I love You Jesus. All the glory, all the honor, and all the praise go to You Lord and our Father. For in You both is the One True God. I love You God. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that people will turn to You before it is too late. May they seek You when brokenness finally sets into their hearts. When these people are finally sick and tired of all their shame and people deceiving them, will they finally look to You for answers? And if not so right away, I pray that You will use somebody to reach them, in order to show them the way. I know how it is to live a life of guilt and being so upset with all the people that hurt me. I had a chance to make matters worse or look to You for answers. And I am so happy that I made the right decision, that day. The lusts of the flesh may have been peaked at this time in my life, but it never lasted. I did not want to go another day with not having control over myself and my actions. I knew that evil spirits had a hold of my life and I wanted to be set free. And God, I knew that nobody could do such a work but You. You were the only person I could go to for not only answers but for a miracle, as well. I needed healing in my life, not only for sicknesses, but also for my brokenness and all my sins. I needed an awakening to do what is right and that is what You did for me. Your presence came over me and gave me the peace I needed. Then, once I knew that You still loved me and have even forgiven me, I was so amazed. Thank You God. I was lost but You found me. You brought light back into my life. There is true joy that accompanies my life now and it is because of You. Thank You Jesus. I love You. Amen.
Daily Prayer:Oh Lord, I pray that more people that proclaim themselves to be Christians, also act the part. May they gain understanding from the Bible, church pastors and other people in the faith and let the message absorb in their hearts. Help them to act on what they have been taught and truly live for You, Lord. It is my prayer that during the week, they continue to seek You. Help them overcome temptation, as they rely on You for understanding. May they be wise in Your wisdom and no longer rely on their own understanding. Help them understand that only You can lead us to heaven. We may have good ideas but only relying on Your counsel is to salvation. I know that I am capable of only doing so much in life and at that, going so far. Without You, I am lost. My life has no light when You are not there. This is when I make foolish decisions and fall back into my old ways of doing things and thinking. Help me and those in the faith to never rely on ourselves fully but in You and Your Word for understanding and knowledge. Help us to be humble at all times. That when you speak to our hearts, through the Bible, prayer and other people, that we will be open to accept Your message of hope. I love You Lord. My hope is in You and what You can do for my life and through it. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that we will not let anything come before You. If we say that we are a believer of You, Jesus, them let us know what is coming against You. We do not wish to unknowingly walk in disobedience when we only wished to be saved in Your kingdom. So, God, if there are any idols in our lives now, please show them to us, that we may remove them together. Help us no longer keep attachments to such images or statues, but give us over to destroying them completely. These things are only vices of the enemy and should not be in our midst any longer. You are our God and whom we wish to serve from here on out. And if people are praying this prayer with me, and they have in their midst idols, Mary, the Saints, Buddha, Hindhu gods, or any other strange gods in their household, convict them of these sins. Help them know that reselling them is also wrong, for they should only be destroyed, lest another person gets caught up in such wretched and vial things. I know that Catholics, like Buddhists and those in the Hindu religion, are in danger of hellfire, because of all their idols in their midst. Therefore, give them over to a humble and repentant heart today. Help them know that these things will only cause them to further themselves from You, and not draw them closer. People will need to look into their hearts and determine who they want to serve and even make a change in where they go to church, but this is necessary. Just like You led me out of Mormonism, people in every false religion need to repent and come out of their church for Your sake. Even our phone, TV, Sports, and video games are acting as idols, and need to be limited or removed. Thank You for speaking this truth to my heart, oh Lord. I give You everything this day and forever. I love You. Amen.
Oh Lord, I pray that Your people, who are the Jews and Gentiles who believe in You, will endure in their faith. It is a great shame to know that people who once loved and served You have now gone astray. But just like the prodigal son, I am praying for their safe return, even into Your loving arms. I don’t want people to miss the boat, like those of old did during the times of Noah. But this time will we meet You in the clouds, Jesus. What a time this will be when You call upon Your angels to gather us to be with You. I can’t wait for this day, for I will finally be safe from my enemies on earth. You are my righteous king and all my worries and fears are over when You are in my life. So what a time this will be when I am finally in Your presence for all eternity. This is all I desire. You are the bridegroom who has come for Your church. Thank You for coming for us all, who love You, especially me. I still wonder how You could have chosen and loved a person like me. You are so patient with me, Lord. I have betrayed You so many times in my life, and still, You extend Your mercy towards me. I hope You know that I am so grateful for Your forgiveness, though I don’t always deserve it. It is Your mercy and grace that has carried me out of my wicked lifestyle and into Your light. And it is my continued prayer that You will lead me now and forever from temptation. I live for You, my Lord, and my King. I love You, Jesus. Amen.
