Lord Jesus, we come before you today and bow our hearts to bring our offerings of praise. We are so grateful for the opportunity to join with our fellow believers to thank you for all your many blessings and rejoice in the goodness of our God. Help us to keep our eyes fixed on you, our hearts open to hear you speak, and our minds focused on things above.
Lord God, we commit today to a renewed vision of our calling in Christ. Help us not become worldly obsessed but give us an eternal mindset. May we set our sights on heaven and work diligently at the tasks you have laid before us, remembering that our work is unto the Lord. Make us living examples of your love and help us to shine your light through our daily enterprises. We ask today that you will give our hearts rest and our minds peace through the infilling of your Holy Spirit and by the power of your Word.
Our hope is in you, Lord, the maker of heaven and earth and we cast all our cares upon you. We ask for a mighty transformation in those who have walked away from their faith, Lord. Put other believers in their pathway to minister your life that they would be brought back home by the power of the Holy Spirit. We pray, Father that you would bring someone into our circumstances today that needs to know about the saving grace of Jesus. Give us spiritual discernment to see the need and step into the blessing of demonstrating your life and love.
Interrupt the distractions of this world with your presence, in the name of Jesus. Send a mighty host of angels to reveal your saving mercy and grace in a new way, Father. May the Holy Spirit intercede on our behalf and bring healing from the crown of our heads to the soles of our feet. Bring revival throughout this land and transform our intentions to align with those above. We claim victory for our nations, and we claim victory for our families.
In the mighty name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray
Scripture
Therefore, we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 2 Cor 4:16-18
Quote
If you read history you will find that the Christians who did most for the present world were precisely those who thought most of the next. It is since Christians have largely ceased to think of the other world that they have become so ineffective in this. ~C. S. Lewis
Let us know if the Lord laid something special on your heart while praying.

This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it! We come to you today, Father with thanksgiving and praise. We are blessed beyond measure to be children of the Almighty God and we honor the incredible grace and mercy of our King of Kings. We bring you our offerings of praise and kneel at your feet expecting you to meet us in a miraculous and unexpected way. We exalt you, Lord and invite you to use our many blessings, our excess, our gifts, and our talents to minister your life to those around us.
Lord Jesus, we ask for a supernatural increase in our faith to walk in your light wherever you lead us today. May we not address the problems of this world with words of how impossible situations may seem, but with proclamations of how great our Almighty God is. Open our eyes to see your glory. Open our minds to understand your ways and open our hearts to know your love. We commit our nations to you Father and ask for your grace and mercy to rain down on this land and spring forth righteousness. You are the creator of all, Lord and we rebuke the powers of darkness, in the name of Jesus. We stand as the doorkeepers of uprightness and claim victory…victory over our thoughts, victory in our speech, victory in our choices, and victory in our families.
We invite the Holy Spirit to move in a mighty way, Lord and declare peace in the hearts and minds of believers all around the world. May we be so empowered by your presence, overflowing with your hope and joy that the transformational power of the living Christ shines through us into the shadows of this life. Praise God, we are redeemed, we are called, and we are purified by the blood of Jesus. Give us spiritual confidence in your unwavering grace. Lead us today beside the still waters and restore our souls.
We give you all the glory and praise for it is in your name, we pray
Scripture
Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Hebrews 4:14-16
Quote
Let no one imagine that he will lose anything of human dignity by this voluntary sell-out of his all to his God. He does not by this degrade himself as a man; rather he finds his right place of high honor as one made in the image of his Creator. His deep disgrace lay in his moral derangement, his unnatural usurpation of the place of God. His honor will be proved by restoring again that stolen throne. In exalting God over all, he finds his own highest honor upheld. ~A.W. Tozer

Lord Jesus, we want to thank you for today and for all the fellow believers joining together to worship you. We come to you with humble hearts glorifying your name. We praise you in the midst of our weariness for bringing us into newness through Christ. We praise you for your steadfast presence in the midst of our distractions and we praise you for your healing power in the midst of our brokenness. Worthy is your name, Lord Jesus.
Father, God, we come to you today laying our prayers and petitions at the foot of the cross. We pray for your divine intervention in our families, across our country and for our leaders. You are faithful Lord, and we call upon you now to do a miraculous work. Send a mighty host of angels to form a hedge of protection around your people as we choose godliness by the power of your Holy Spirit. We rebuke anything that is not of you and receive your resurrection power, in the name of Jesus. May we not rely on our feelings to dictate our course of action, but may we rely on the unwavering Word of God to direct our decisions and mold our minds.
We are your children, Lord and we can trust our heavenly Father in all things. We posture ourselves, today to receive your glory and ask you to give us a heart of worship that reflects the knowledge of the sovereignty of our God. Give us contentment in the midst of the storm that demonstrates confidence in the Lordship of our Father. We pray you will reach down to the foundations of our souls and awaken a fresh revelation of the greatness of our Messiah. May we seek more of you, Lord. Fill us to overflowing with confidence in the mighty God we serve and may our countenance reflect kingdom vision. You are Holy. You are Worthy. You are the great I Am who rules and reigns forever. You are our soon coming King!
In the mighty name of Jesus, we pray
Scripture
God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. He says, Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth. The Lord Almighty is with us; the God of Jacob is our fortress. Psalm 46:1-3, 10-11
Quote
Accustom yourself to look first to the dreadful consequences of failure; then fix your eye on the glorious prize which is before you; and when your strength begins to fail, and your spirits are well nigh exhausted, let the animating view rekindle your resolution, and call forth in renewed vigour the fainting energies of your soul. ~William Wilberforce

Lord Jesus, we pause today in your presence to glorify your name. We open our hearts and give you praise for the healing power of Christ. We open our minds and ask you to fill us to overflowing with the power of the Holy Spirit. We give you our whole selves and behold all things are new because of the blood of Christ. Holy in the name of the Lord!
Father God, we come before you and declare a new work in the lives of those gathered here today. You have promised to make a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland and we declare victory in the name of Christ, our Lord. We offer up repentance for the ways in which Christians have allowed silence where you have desired truth, acceptance where you have called for discernment and despair where you have offered hope. May we put aside appearances of godliness and earnestly seek your face, rejecting anything that is not of you. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.
Help us God, to not just say a prayer, but to come boldly before the throne of our Sovereign Lord, praying continually with thanksgiving. Help us to not just be in church, but to be rooted and grounded in Christ. Help us to not just be in your Word but do what it says. May we not call evil good and good evil or exchange darkness for light and light for darkness. May our contentment be found in you alone, Lord Jesus. You are our hope. You are our rock. You are our salvation, and we will not despair. Send a mighty wave of awakening among your people and may we be ready and willing to respond to your movement in our own hearts. For such a time as this, we are called. May we joyfully walk forth in victory in the powerful name of Christ our Lord.
In your precious, holy name, we pray
Scripture
May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13
Quote
One of the strange things about God is that He will come in as far as we allow Him. I have often said that a Christian is as full of the Holy Spirit as he wants to be. We can beg to be filled with the Holy Spirit. We can talk about it, but until we are willing to empty ourselves, we will never have the fullness of the Holy Spirit in our lives. God will fill as much of us as we allow Him to fill. ~A.W. Tozer
