Father, we look to You and Your Word, Isaiah 8:20, rather than the noise and pollution of the world, 1 Jn 2:15-16. Thank You for working in my life and hers, and for all that need Your guidance, "You are able to save forever those who come to God through Jesus, because He lives to make intercession for us," Heb 7:25, c.f. Rom 8:34. We agree with this husband, for spouse, children, PASTORS, family, friends, prayer and minister partners -- speak to us by any and every ordinary and extraordinary means: Father, with humble confidence, give her, them, us dreams and visions underlining your will for us in Christ Jesus, as You have done from ancient times: Joseph, Matt 1:20, Magi, Matt 2:12, Abimelech, Gen 20:3, Laban to remain neutral regarding Jacob, Gen 31:24, Nebuchadnezzar, Dan 2:1, Dan 4:5, Paul, Acts 19:6, and You will continue to though the future, Heb 13:8. Your arm is not too short, Num 11:23, especially to save, Isa 50:2, Isa 59:1. As little children, "we know You can do all things and no purpose of GOD can be thwarted,"Job 42:2. We agree with John, that light is stronger than darkness and not able to overcome it, John 1:5. We agree that "nothing shall be impossible with God," Luke 1:27, "The things impossible with man are possible with God," Mark 10:27.

Keep her, him, us and our churches, families, friends, pastors and government leaders from temptation, sin, evil, wrongdoing, lies, fear, evil people, deception, and the evil one, Lk 11:4, 1 Cor 8:1, Zeph 3:13, 2 Cor 13:7, 2 Cor 11:6, 2 Tim 3:5, 2 Tim 3:13, Tit 1:16, 2 Thes 3:2, Matt 24:4, Rev 12:9, Matt 6:13, John 17:15, 2 Thes 3:3.

We thank You in advance, Mark 11:24, Heb 11:6, Jesus' Name, The Amen, and Faithful Witness, Rev 3:14, in Jesus ALL Your promises are Yes, and therefore we say, Amen, 2 Cor 1:20... Thank You and you all in Jesus' Name.

 

[Articles]

We join you in this deep hunger for the Holy Spirit to speak clearly to you, to her, to your spouses, children, friends, leaders, churches, pastors, and to all your prayer and financial partners and their families, and we thank you for anchoring this request in the Word of God and in the name of Jesus, for it is only through Him that we have access to the Father and it is in His name that every promise is Yes and Amen.

We agree with your desire that God would use every biblical means to guide His people, and we rejoice that you put the Holy Bible first, for to the law and to the testimony, if they do not speak according to this word, surely there is no morning for them Isa 8:20. We do not love the world or the things that are in the world, for all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father but is of the world 1 John 2:15-16, and so we look first to Scripture, which is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work 2 Tim 3:16-17. In these last days God has spoken to us by His Son Heb 1:1-3, and faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ Rom 10:17, so the messages from the pulpit, godly counsel where there is safety in a multitude of counselors Prov 11:14, and divine appointments are precious, but they must always be tested against the written Word.

We also hear your longing for dreams, visions, prophecy, the Shepherd's voice, and signs, and we acknowledge that God has indeed spoken in these ways from ancient times. He warned Abimelech in a dream Gen 20:3, He warned Laban concerning Jacob Gen 31:24, He gave Joseph direction in a dream Matt 1:20 and warned the wise men in a dream Matt 2:12, He gave Nebuchadnezzar dreams Dan 2:1, Dan 4:5, He poured out His Spirit so that your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams Acts 2:17, Joel 2:28, and He still leads His children, for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are children of God Rom 8:14 and My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me John 10:27. At the same time we gently caution and encourage you to keep Scripture as the supreme and final test, to test the spirits whether they are of God 1 John 4:1, and not to seek signs above the Word, for an evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign Matt 16:4, while God has given the lights in the heavens to be for signs and for seasons Gen 1:14 and at times used a star to point to Christ Matt 2:2 and a star out of Jacob Num 24:17. The children of Issachar understood the times to know what Israel ought to do 1 Chron 12:32, and we too should discern the signs of the times Matt 16:3 with wisdom, yet never turning to the pollution of the world for guidance but always to Christ.

We rejoice in your confidence in God's power to save and to keep, for He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing he lives forever to make intercession for them Heb 7:25, and Christ Jesus is he who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us Rom 8:34. His hand is not shortened that it cannot save Isa 59:1, Isa 50:2, His arm is not too short Num 11:23, and we know that you can do all things, and no purpose of yours can be restrained Job 42:2. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it John 1:5, for nothing spoken by God is impossible Luke 1:37 and with God all things are possible Mark 10:27.

We also honor your prayer concerning government, for there is no authority except from God, and those who exist are ordained by God Rom 13:1, that rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil Rom 13:3-4, and we are to be subject not only because of wrath, but also for conscience sake Rom 13:5. We pray for all who are in authority that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and reverence 1 Tim 2:2.

So we pray together with you now.

Father, in the name of Jesus Christ Your Son, we come before Your throne with humble confidence. We thank You for Your Word and for the Holy Spirit who convicts the world of sin, of righteousness, and of judgment John 16:8, who guides us into all truth. Speak to each one named before You, to this husband and wife, to their children, to their pastors, families, friends, churches, leaders, and partners and their households. Speak most clearly through Your Holy Bible, through faithful preaching, through godly counsel, through divine appointments, and if it pleases You, through dreams as You did with Joseph and the magi, through visions as with Paul in Acts 16:9, through prophecy according to Joel 2:28, and through the still small leading of Your Spirit, always in agreement with Scripture, for Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever Heb 13:8.

Give us ears to hear the Shepherd's voice and grace to follow. Keep us from temptation, deliver us from evil Matt 6:13, keep us from the evil one John 17:15, for the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one 2 Thess 3:3. Keep us from deception, lies, fear, and from evil people, for we know that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one 1 John 5:19 and that the deceiver leads the whole world astray Rev 12:9. Lead us away from falsehood and grant us repentance and truth.

We bring all these requests to You with thanksgiving, as You command, in nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus Phil 4:6-7. We ask believing that we have received, for whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them Mark 11:24, knowing that without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to you, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him Heb 11:6.

We trust that You will answer according to Your perfect will, for all the promises of God in him are Yes and in him Amen to the glory of God through us 2 Cor 1:20, and You are the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness Rev 3:14. May Your will be done in each life, each marriage, each family, and each church, that You would be glorified and that Your people would walk in holiness, unity, and courage until Jesus comes. We ask all this in the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.

We hear the breadth of your heart in this prayer, for your wife and family, for your church and pastors, for leaders and partners, that all of you would clearly hear the Lord and be kept close to Him.

That desire to be led is itself something God delights in. We love that you want His voice above every other voice, and that you are looking to Him with humble confidence. We trust the Holy Spirit as our Counselor and Helper who is present to teach, guide, and form us to be more like Jesus. His leading is steady and kind, often quiet as well as strong, and He never pulls us away from the truth He has already given us in Scripture, but helps us understand and live it.

When there are so many ways you long for God to speak, it can help to keep a simple, steady rhythm. Stay rooted day by day in the Bible as your foundation, bring your questions honestly to the Lord in prayer, and then test what you sense with a couple of trusted, godly counselors who know you and your family. That shared wisdom often brings clarity and peace when impressions or dreams feel uncertain.

We are grateful for your faith that God is able and willing to guide you.

Father, we lift this family, their churches, pastors and leaders to You. Draw each one close to Jesus and give them clear understanding of Your will, protection from confusion and evil, and Your peace that guards hearts. Lead them step by step by Your Spirit and keep them walking faithfully with You. In Jesus' name, Amen.

 

[Spurgeon]

Your longing that the Lord should speak and guide is a gracious desire, and it is right to bring it before Him with thanksgiving, making your requests known unto God that His peace which passes all understanding may keep your hearts.

Take heed how you hear, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. The mere letter of the Word alone will kill, but when you put your ear down to the promises of Scripture till you hear God speaking through them to your soul, then it has power which it could not possess otherwise. It is a blessed thing to hear the Gospel as God's voice to us and therefore as in God's presence with simple and lowly hearts, desiring to know His truth that you may sincerely live it. In these last days God has spoken unto us by His Son, and that Word, opened by the Holy Spirit, is the surest voice. To the law and to the testimony, as you have well said, rather than to the noise and pollution of the world. Try every counsel, every impression, every dream and every supposed vision by that infallible standard, for many are deaf not for want of ears but because they will not hear the voice of holy exhortation.

You ask that He would speak by the pulpit, by divine appointments, by godly counsel, and by government under Romans 13. These are indeed ordinary means by which the Lord often directs His people, and in multitude of counselors there is safety when that counsel is according to Holy Scripture. Yet remember that no man gets saved or guided by an inattentive, careless or forgetful hearing. There must be a personal, attentive hearing for yourself, an accepting of what is consistent with Scripture as God's Word and therefore true and worthy of reverent attention. The voice of the Lord is powerful and full of majesty, and when He speaks it is a commanding and a dividing voice, separating light from darkness. Hear Him, as the Father said upon the mount, This is my beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, hear Him. Content yourselves to hear Christ and let other voices go into silence except as they echo Him.

You have asked prayer for her and for yourself, for your spouses, children, pastors, friends and partners and leaders. Here we must be plain and faithful for your souls. Our Lord has ordained salvation through Jesus Christ alone, who ever lives to make intercession for us, and whose blood cleanses from all sin, and He has ordained marriage to be a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, with all intimacy belonging only within that covenant. We cannot ask God to bless or prosper any path that departs from this holy order, but we do pray with you that He will keep you all from temptation, sin, evil, deception and the evil one, and that He will sanctify each home and each marriage to His glory. If there be any affection or entanglement that would draw either of you away from fidelity to your own spouse, we entreat you to flee from it as from a snare, and to cry with your voice unto God for deliverance, for He is able to save and to keep. Happy are they who being placed where they could see God's hand do see it, and being placed where they could hear God's voice do hear it.

We pray then that the Spirit who convinces of sin and leads the sons of God would cause you to hear the Shepherd's voice in the Scriptures day by day, to use the voice in earnest private prayer, to walk in sober obedience to lawful authority, and to trust not in signs in the heavens above what is written, but in the sure Word which reveals Christ crucified. May you be found constantly, attentively, earnestly hearing that Word, for it is while you are hearing the Gospel that you are led to believe it, and the Cross enlightens men by its own light. May the Lord give you to know that where He begins a good work He will complete it, and that He is able to keep you from falling.

We commend you to Him who is the Amen, the faithful Witness, in whose name every promise is Yes. May He grant you repentance where repentance is needed, faith where faith is needed, and holiness in all your relationships, that your lives and your households may be preserved blameless and your prayers be indeed according to His will.

 

[Jonathan_M]

Praying for this request in Jesus Name. Amen.
