LORD'S PRAYER... "Therefore, pray after this manner, 'Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come & will be done, On earth as it is in heaven, Give us our daily bread. Forgive our debts, As we forgive our debtors. Lead us not into temptation but deliver us from the evil one'" Matt 6:9-13, in Jesus' Name.
FAMILY: DAD, STEPMOM, WIFE, CHILDREN, SIBLINGS, THEIR FAMILIES & WE UNDERSTAND YOUR LOVE, YOUR WORD & YOUR WAYS... Heavenly Father, We ask You give Our families: Dads, Moms, Step-moms, Wife, child, children, sisters, brothers, etc understanding of Your will through Your Word, "The entirety of Your word is truth, and all Your righteous judgments endure forever," Ps 119:160; "From infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. Help us have godly conversations with our family and friends. Soften our hearts and protect us from evil, and help us use our "Bible Apps" or read our Bibles and understand what it says enough to model it and teach it to others... "All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness," 2 Tim 3:15-16. "Do not take us out of the world, but keep them from the evil one," John 17:15. "Sanctify us by the truth; Your Word is truth," John 17:17.
Thank you in Jesus' Name.
We CRY OUT for WISDOM, LIFT OUR VOICES for UNDERSTANDING, Prov 2:3-4, Prov 2:5-6, Prov 2:7-8, Prov 2:9-10, Prov 2:11-12; Prov 2:16-17. We thank You for the Angelic Protection You already provide, Ps 91:9-10, Ps 91:11-12, Ps 91:13-14, Ps 91:15-16, Heb 1:14, in Jesus' Name.
FINANCES & PERSEVERANCE, HEALTH, CORRESPONDENCE, RECEIVING & GIVING FREELY... We ask for generosity toward our cause and mission from every and any channel: family members, assistance and other venues. Please pray the Holy Spirit would both administer healing to others through us, as ministers of the New Covenant, and receive and release the specific healing needed from God as our Father, "the Children's bread." Strengthen us and grant us grace and discipline to go to the gym and continue to endure at getting in shape & staying in shape. Help us to eat the right things, correct portions and eat at the right times. Grace to intermittently fast, and grace for some longer fasts. Help us to correspond with specific family members and friends in the right amounts as needed with open doors to "Shine" as a "Christian," successfully imaging God regardless of where we are in life's journey with equal Love, Joy, Peace, Patience and Zealous Fervor -- always abounding in bearing fruit in an ever increasing effectiveness. Thank you, in Jesus' Name.
LOCAL REGION... We also pray for God's power & protection over our local areas, "But seek the welfare of the city where I have removed you, and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare, peace and prosperity you will find yours as well," Jer 29:7. May The Holy Spirit convict our neighbors, the local students, teachers, husbands, wives, the workers that come and go, the fishermen, basketball players, parents, pastors, law enforcement and local leaders -- convict us all of righteousness, sin and judgement to come, John 16:8. Father, draw us to Your Son, John 6:44. Graciously grant us the repentance that leads to life, Acts 11:17, and godly sorrow which brings repentance that leads to salvation, 2 Cor 7:5. Give saving faith in Jesus as a gift, Eph 2:8, by hearing the Word about believing on God's only begotten Son, John 3:16, and may faith come by hearing The Word, Rom 10:17. Help us hear about and share Jesus Christ crucified, 1 Cor 2:2, who was made sin on our behalf, that we may be made the righteousness of God in Christ, 2 Cor 5:21. Grant a wall of fire around our area, protecting it from harm & evil influences, Zechariah 2:5, Ps 91:10-11, John 17:15, 2 Thes 3:2-3.
Thank you in Jesus' Name.
