 Let us pray

Thank you, Lord Jesus, for this day and for those who are gathered together in your name.  We praise you for you are our portion in the land of the living and in you there is resurrection life.  You are before all things and in you all things hold together.  We raise our praises to the heavens and join with the hosts in worship of the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.  We lift our souls up to you, our lips overflow with praise and our tongue sings of your word for all your commands are righteous.  Thank you, Lord Jesus.  You are so worthy.

Establish us firmly in you, Father.  Bring us out into the clarity that comes from knowing we are children of the Almighty King.  Clothe us in your righteousness for we are a royal lineage, and we will not be slaves to this world, in the name of Jesus.  We declare victory in our hearts and minds and emerge from the ordinary into the great high calling we have in Christ Jesus.  You have promised to give strength to the weary and increase the power of the weak and we receive that today. 

Father God, help us to take up the shield of faith with which we can extinguish the flaming arrows of this world.  Give us a desire that can only be satisfied on our knees in prayer.  Build our faith as we give our thoughts over to the promises of the heavens and walk forward in your Word.  Increase our divine knowledge and fill us with a hope that sees beyond the distractions of this world into the kingdom realm where we find true joy and peace.    

Lord, we give you every aspect of our lives and ask you to take what is wrong and make it right.  We trust you with it all! Give us the discipline to build our faith alone on our knees where the triumph for every battle begins.  We declare victory over in own hearts, our homes and across this land, in the name of Jesus.  You have said if your people are silent, even the rocks will cry out.  May our voices rise above the noise of this world as we declare the greatness of our God.  Be Lord over this nation, Father and make your Kingship evident in each one of us as we shine your light for all to see.

 In the mighty name of Christ who rules and reigns, we pray

Scripture

My purpose it that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding in order that they may know the mystery of God namely Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge, I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments.  For though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how orderly you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.  Colossians 2:2-5

Thank you, Lord Jesus for this day, for your love, your mercy and your grace.  We give you praise for your wonder-working power and glory for your divine intervention.  You are worthy of all honor and we are in awe of your greatness.  Fill us to overflowing with more of you as we surrender more and more of ourselves.  Give us a new song to sing and a new vision for who we are in Christ.  May our tongues be filled with joy and our mouths with laughter for you have done such great things, Lord.  Thank you for the blood of Christ and for the sacrifice made on Calvary.

Father God, we pray that those who are committed to serving you will be like the sun when it rises in its strength, shining your light and walking in victory in the name of Jesus.  Lead us through doors and give us the courage to follow.  Help us to put all our trust in you.  Take the problems of this world and demonstrate your power, this very day.  Perform miracles, in the name of Jesus.  Make us like Mount Zion so we may not be shaken and we would endure.  May we commit all we do to the furtherance of your Kingdom, for unless the Lord builds the house, our labor is in vain. 

O’ Lord, reach down from on high and cover this land with your righteousness, in the name of Jesus.  Give us a holy zeal to serve you, Father and send the Comforter to minister to those in need.  Take our focus and turn it towards our high calling in Christ Jesus.  Fill us with a satisfaction that can only be found in you, Father.  May our sorrow lead to true repentance that produces godliness in our lives, Lord.  May we be so rooted and grounded in your Word, that your truth rules and reigns in our hearts, in our homes and in our communities.

With you there is unfailing love and full redemption.  Lead us in the paths of righteousness and fill us with the joy of the Lord, today.  Renew our calling to prayer and may we find new life on our knees, in the name of Jesus.  Bring a mighty wave of repentance across this land, lead us to the cross and bring transformation by the power of the blood of Christ.

In the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, we pray

 

Scripture

Now get up and stand on your feet.  I have appeared to you to appoint you as a servant and as a witness of what you have seen of me and what I will show you.  I will rescue from your own people and from the Gentiles, I am sending you to them to open their eyes and turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.  Acts 26:16-18

Thank you Father for this new day and for the opportunity to serve such an awesome God.  We bring our praises into the storehouse of our Lord.  We submit our entire lives to you and offer up our hearts to your process of refinement.  We bring our hopes and dreams to the threshing floor, where your provision for us is unearthed and we trust you completely, Lord Jesus.  Our soul waits for you.  Teach us to wait on you, Lord.  We give you honor and glory and rejoice in your salvation. O’ Lord, you are so good.  Give us sincere intentions and pure hearts as we move forward filled with the Holy Spirit, guided by His hand. 

O’Lord, you have promised to uphold us with your right hand and make our steps firm as we walk in your ways.  Keep us safe for in you we take refuge.  Be exalted in our lives Lord Jesus.  We want to build a temple in our hearts for you.  Help us to till up the soil of our own desires and plant the seeds of complete devotion to you.  May we foster an environment for righteousness to grow.  Fill us with the overwhelming desire to seek your face, falling on our knees to pray and seeing this world with eyes filled with kingdom vision.  Give us a discipline that teaches us to pray before we speak, pray before we move, pray before we worry, pray before we decide, pray before bitterness takes root, pray before we respond and pray before we start each and every day.  Lord Jesus, bring us to a new place of commitment to you, as we spend time on our knees.   

Father God, we ask you to take the sins we have accepted in our hearts and cover them with the blood of Christ.  Reveal our kingdom calling and make us holy, Father.  We want to serve you in a new way so compel us by your love and make us ambassadors for Christ.  Reconcile us to you, Lord Jesus.  Spark a new devotion to holiness and revival in our hearts for you are our Savior, and you are our Lord.  We commit our nations, our homes, and our families to you, in the name of Jesus and ask you to take your rightful place on the throne of our lives.

In the mighty name of Jesus, the perfector of our faith, we pray

Scripture 

Lord Almighty, God of Israel, you have revealed this to your servant, saying, “I will build a house for you.” So your servant has found courage to pray this prayer to you.  Sovereign Lord, you are God! Your covenant is trustworthy, and you have promised these good things to your servant.  Now be pleased to bless the house of your servant, that it may continue forever in your sight; for you, Sovereign Lord, have spoken, and with your blessing the house of your servant will be blessed forever. 2 Samuel 7:27-29

Thank you, Lord God for bringing us together once again and for those who are gathered in your name.  We give you all the honor and glory.  What a mighty God we serve!  We praise your holy name, Jesus.  You are the Lamb, the ultimate sacrifice, our Great High Priest, the King of Kings, the Bread of Life, the author and finisher of our faith, and you, O’ Lord are the Word.  You are all we need, Father and we worship you with open arms and willing hearts.

Father God, we come before your throne of grace ask for godly wisdom and discernment.  Saturate us with the presence of the Holy Spirit and give us understanding of your precepts and fill us with your joy.  You have promised to be health to our flesh and strength to our bones, and we claim that, Lord Jesus.  You are the great physician, and we join our hearts today for healing for all those who are in need, Father.  Give strength in our bodies, clarity in our minds and renewal in our hearts.  You are so faithful, Lord.  We acknowledge you and ask you to direct our paths.

Father, we give you all our tomorrows for we know you are already there.  Replace our thoughts for our own needs with prayers that develop a deep dependence on our Lord and Savior.  Posture us to receive your strength, your redeeming grace, your miraculous healing, your steadfast faith, and your unwavering boldness.  Reignite a hunger for your Word.

Lord God, we ask that you would shake the very foundations of this world.  Bring a renewed dedication in believers across this land that is so confident in our Savior, that it sparks holy boldness and a new commitment to righteous living.  We claim victory in our homes, in the name of Jesus.  We rebuke the powers of darkness encroaching and we say “No more”.  You have been defeated and we have victory through the blood of Christ, shed on calvary.  Bring revival in our hearts, Lord and help us to pray in earnest, and choose to spend time on our knees in your presence.  O’ Lord Jesus, we bring you all our praise.  Thank you, Father. 

 In the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, who was and is and is to come, we pray

Thank you, Father God for this new day and the opportunity to come before our awesome Lord and Savior.  We bring our finest offering and give you all the glory and praise.  You are worthy, Lord Jesus.  We worship you, Father.  Bring us out into the light and make us righteous, Lord Jesus.  Take away any fondness in us for the shadows of this world and may we find our substance in Christ alone.  You satisfy the thirsty and fill the hungry with good things so we ask you to fill us with holy desires and give us a kingdom view of this world.  May we find great delight in your commands and be filled with the joy of the Lord!

You have promised to supply all our needs according to your riches in Christ Jesus.  We claim that for our lives today, in the name of Jesus.  Father, you know our deepest desires and our deepest hurts, and we lay all our burdens at your feet.  Be Lord over it all, we pray.  Survey our hearts and take dominion over every longing, Lord.  Help us to leave behind anything that is weighing us down and walk forward in victory.  Your mercies are new every morning and we declare newness in Christ today.  You are a God of new beginnings.  Fill us with new love, new mercy, new vision and a new passion for prayer, in the name of Jesus.

Father God, reveal yourself in a powerful way and show us things we have never seen before.  Give us a renewed faith in our calling through Christ Jesus and a sincere and overwhelming desire to spend time on our knees in prayer.  Hear the cries of your people today, reach down and save.  Ignite a fire in us that sparks revival in the hearts of believers around the world.  Have mercy on our nations, Lord.  Perform miracles in the hearts of those in power, Father.  We claim righteousness and a mighty move of the Holy Spirit throughout this land.  You O’ Lord are faithful.  You are unchangeable.  You are the rock on which we stand. 

 In the powerful name of Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, we pray

 

Scripture

He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”  He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the spring of the water of life. Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children. Revelation 21:5-7
