🙇🏻 Prayer for Strength to Endure Coming Storms Lk21:36, Fruitfully Abiding in Him Jn15:7-8, Prepared for Birth Pangs Mt24:8 of New Creation Heb12:2

[Nochaeld]

“Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will not pass away. Luke 21:33. "For all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs, Mt 24:8.

Matt 24:8-14, "And Jesus answered and said to them, 'See to it that no one misleads you. For many will come in My name, saying, "I am the Christ," and will mislead many. You will be hearing of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not frightened, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and in various places there will be famines and earthquakes. But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pangs. Then they will deliver you to tribulation, and will kill you, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name. At that time many will fall away and will betray one another and hate one another. Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. Because lawlessness is increased, most people’s love will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. And this Gospel of The Kingdom shall be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all the people groups, and then the end shall come," Mt 24:8-14.

Luke 21:34-36, “So be on guard, so that your hearts will not be weighted down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of life, and that day will not come on you suddenly like a trap; for it will come upon all those who dwell on the face of all the earth. But keep on the alert at all times, praying that you may have STRENGTH to escape all these things that are about to take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.”

Father, thank You for telling us these things through Your Son before they take place, so that while they are occurring, we may be believing, John 14:29. We know that everything that can be shaken will be shaken -- heaven, earth, sea, dry land and all nations, Hag 4:6-7 -- so that the things which cannot be shaken will remain, Heb 12:27, Therefore, since we are receiving an unshakable kingdom, let us be filled with gratitude, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for You are a consuming fire, Heb 12:28. As things shift in our personal lives and on a global scale, we ask for daily bread, Matt 6:11, for connection to Jesus, John 15:1-5, our Beloved, who is like a bundle of myrrh through the night who warms our hearts, Song 1:13, and for strength to ensure not only these trials with joy, Matt 5:12, James 1:2-3, but persecutions, famines, perils, wars and rumors of wars, even earthquakes in various places, storms of life and real storms on earth, knowing that no created thing can keep us from the uncreated love of God in Christ Jesus Our Lord, Rom 8:35, for Jesus is risen and ascended and at Your Right Hand of Power, making intercession for us, Rom 8:34, praying our faith will not fail, that we stay connected to Him (and therefore to all the other branches that are connected to The Vine, John 15:1-5, and once we turn to You, not only is the veil is taken away, 2 Cor 3:16, so that with unveiled face we may be transformed from glory to glory, from the work of The Lord The Holy Spirit, 2 Cor 3:18, so that we may from that position of refreshing by abiding in Your presence, Acts 3:19, bear fruit, John 15:7-8, and strengthen others, Lk 22:32, introducing them to Christ's love through the ministry of reconciliation as Ambassadors of The New Creation, 2 Cor 5:14-21.

But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the (uncreated) love of God, which is being in Christ Jesus our Lord, Rom 8:27-29.

We ask these things in accordance Your will, Matt 12:50, which is Your Word, Luke 8:21, knowing that is what You hear, and when You hear, we have the requests we've asked, 1 Jn 5:14-15. With thanksgiving we make these requests known, Phil 4:6, thanking You in advance, Mk 11:24, with the promise that the peace of God which passes all comprehension will guard our hearts and minds in Christ Jesus, Phil 4:7. Thank You again in Jesus' Name, Jn 14:13-14, The Amen, The Faithful Witness and Originator of This New Creation, Rev 3:14, in whom all the promises of God are Yes and Amen, 2 Cor 1:20.

We stand with you in this hour, lifting our voices together in agreement with the truth of God’s Word. The days ahead may indeed be marked by shaking, both in the natural and the spiritual realms, but we do not face them in fear. For the Lord has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind (2 Timothy 1:7). His Word stands forever, and though heaven and earth may pass away, His promises remain unshaken (Matthew 24:35).

We rejoice that you are rooted in Christ, the true Vine, for apart from Him we can do nothing (John 15:5). But in Him, we are called to abide, to remain, and to bear much fruit. The trials you speak of, wars, famines, persecutions, and the increasing lawlessness of this age, are not signs of defeat but of the birth pangs of a new creation (Matthew 24:8). Just as a woman endures labor for the joy of new life, so too must we endure with our eyes fixed on the hope set before us (Hebrews 12:2). The love of many may grow cold, but let ours burn brighter, fueled by the fire of the Holy Spirit (Romans 12:11).

We take seriously the call to watchfulness in Luke 21:34-36. Let us not be weighed down by the cares of this life, nor dulled by complacency or distraction. Instead, let us be a people of prayer, standing firm in the strength that God supplies (1 Peter 4:11). The enemy would love nothing more than to see us stumble in weariness or doubt, but we declare that no weapon formed against us shall prosper (Isaiah 54:17). We are more than conquerors through Him who loved us (Romans 8:37), and nothing, no trial, no persecution, no shaking, can separate us from His love (Romans 8:38-39).

We pray now for divine strength to endure, not just with survival, but with joy. Let us be like the early church, who rejoiced that they were counted worthy to suffer for Christ’s name (Acts 5:41). May our abiding in Him produce fruit that remains, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). And as we stand firm, let us strengthen our brothers and sisters, turning our trials into testimonies that point others to the hope found only in Jesus (1 Peter 3:15).

Father, we thank You for Your faithfulness. You have warned us of these days so that we might not be caught unaware but walk in wisdom and readiness. We ask for daily bread, Your Word, Your presence, Your provision, to sustain us. Keep our hearts tender, our spirits alert, and our faith unshaken. Let us not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not faint (Galatians 6:9). May we be found faithful when Christ returns, standing before the Son of Man with confidence, not shame (1 John 2:28).

We pray for those who may be reading this and do not yet know You. Open their eyes to see Jesus as the only way, the truth, and the life (John 14:6). For there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Draw them to Yourself, Lord, and let them experience the unshakable love that holds us fast.

We declare together: Heaven and earth may pass away, but Your Word will never pass away. We are anchored in Christ, the Author and Perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2). Strengthen us, Lord, to endure, to abide, and to shine brightly in these last days. May we be found faithful, fruitful, and full of Your Spirit when You come.

In the mighty name of Jesus, the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, we pray. Amen.

We hear your heart and feel the weight of what lies ahead. It’s okay to feel overwhelmed, we all do when storms loom. But we’re reminded that Jesus already walked through the valley of the shadow and declared victory before we even faced the battle. Remember, while the world trembles, He remains unshaken.

Let’s not let fear take root in us. Instead, let’s press in closer to Him, like branches clinging to the Vine when the winds blow. The same power that calmed the storm can steady our hearts. We may not see the way out yet, but we know the One who holds the map.

We’ll pray for you daily, not just for strength to endure, but for a fresh revelation of His nearness. May you sense His presence so deeply that fear loses its grip. And when the road feels long, may you find little signs of His faithfulness along the way.

Father, hold this dear one close as the winds howl. Calm their spirit with the truth that You are near, that You are enough, and that every promise in Your Word will hold. Let them walk through these days not alone, but with You leading every step. In Jesus’ name.
