We come before the throne of grace with heavy hearts, lifting up every burden, every cry, and every unspoken need before our Heavenly Father. You have called us to stand in the gap, to intercede with boldness, and to trust in Your mighty power to break every chain, heal every wound, and bring breakthrough where it is needed most. We declare that no weapon formed against Your children shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against them in judgment, You will condemn (Isaiah 54:17). We stand on the promise that You are our refuge and fortress, our God in whom we trust (Psalm 91:2).
Father, we ask for Your extra strong protection over every person in need, over every family, every child, and every situation mentioned here. You are the God who sees, the God who hears, and the God who acts on behalf of those who cry out to You. We plead the blood of Jesus over every life, every home, and every outreach. Let Your angels encamp around those who fear You and deliver them from every snare of the enemy (Psalm 34:7). We rebuke every spirit of division, strife, and confusion that seeks to disrupt Your work. We command every evil influence to bow to the name of Jesus and be severed from those it seeks to harm. Let Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard hearts and minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).
Lord, we lift up the conflicts mentioned here, both seen and unseen. You are the God of reconciliation, and we ask that You would bring healing where there is brokenness, understanding where there is misunderstanding, and humility where there is pride. Convict hearts, Father, and soften them to receive Your truth. We pray for those who have caused pain, intentionally or unintentionally—let Your Holy Spirit work mightily in them, leading them to repentance and restoration. Forgive us, Lord, where we have spoken out of turn or allowed bitterness to take root. Cleanse us with hyssop, and we shall be clean; wash us, and we shall be whiter than snow (Psalm 51:7). Turn every word spoken in haste or frustration into a testimony of Your grace and a blessing for all involved.
We cry out for the persecuted church around the world, for our brothers and sisters who are suffering for the sake of the gospel. Strengthen them, Lord, and let them know they are not forgotten. We ask for Your hand of protection over them and for Your justice to prevail. For those in war zones, those facing calamities, and those enduring abuse, we ask for Your miraculous intervention. You are close to the brokenhearted and save those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). Let Your light shine in the darkest places, and let Your love be a balm to the wounded.
Father, we lift up the unsaved, those who do not yet know You. We ask that You would send laborers into the harvest field to share the good news of Jesus Christ. Soften hearts to receive the truth, and let none perish but all come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9). We pray for peace in Israel and for Your will to be done in the nations. Let Your kingdom come and Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven (Matthew 6:10).
For the young ones mentioned here, we ask for Your mighty hand to be upon them. Heal their soul wounds, protect them from the schemes of the enemy, and let them know You as their loving Father. Provide miracles in their schools, in their studies, and in their hearts. Let them experience Your presence in a tangible way, and let them grow in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man (Luke 2:52). We rebuke every spirit of fear, anxiety, or oppression that seeks to hinder them, and we declare that they are more than conquerors through Christ who loves them (Romans 8:37).
Lord, we ask for Your anointing to be poured out on every planned outreach, every service, and every gathering. Let Your glory fill the house, and let lives be transformed by the power of Your Holy Spirit. We pray for the Live Nativity and the sermons prepared—let Your word go forth with power, convicting hearts and drawing souls to You. Raise up more prayer warriors, Lord, and convict the church to rise up in intercession. Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart (Galatians 6:9).
For the struggles at work, with teams, and in meetings, we ask for Your wisdom and guidance. Let Your Holy Spirit lead and direct every conversation, every decision, and every interaction. Help us to work as unto You, not unto men, and to do everything in a manner that is pleasing to You (Colossians 3:23). Give us favor with those around us, and let Your peace rule in our hearts.
Father, we lift up the physical and emotional healing needed for those mentioned here. You are the Great Physician, and we ask for Your healing touch to restore health quickly. Take away every burden, every weight, and every spirit of infirmity. Let Your healing power flow like a river, bringing life where there is death and wholeness where there is brokenness. We declare that by Your stripes, we are healed (Isaiah 53:5).
Lord, we thank You for Your promise that You are able to do exceedingly, abundantly, above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us (Ephesians 3:20). We trust in Your goodness, Your faithfulness, and Your unfailing love. Let Your glory fill the earth, and let every knee bow and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (Philippians 2:10-11).
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. By His blood, we have access to the throne of grace, and by His name alone, we are saved. There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We declare that every prayer lifted here is heard, and we trust You to answer according to Your perfect will. Amen.
