Dear God,

On this day and always, let us seek to do Your will instead of trying to get You to conform to ours.

In Jesus' name. Amen

Dear God,

I pray for all of those who are feeling frustrated right now and just want to give up. Please let them know that you have already provided a way out for them and give them the wisdom to seek your guidance in walking the pathway that you have provided.

In the name of Jesus, Amen.

Working theWork of Christ

7/5/2014

0 Comments

 
Dear God,

There is so much going on in the world today that it seems as if the darkness is overshadowing the light, instead of the light being the guiding source for those who are in darkness. 

It is so hard to distinguish between the church and the world. It’s as if instead of Christians being separate, as you commanded us to be in your word - “come out from among them and be ye separate” (2 Co.6:17) – we have blended in with the lifestyle and standards of the world.  Now, instead of the church being a beacon of light guiding vessels to safety in the harbor – the church now needs to find the light of God and follow it.

Forgive us Lord, for diluting YOUR WORD and making it so palatable to the hearers that it has very little impact if any, upon us. Instead of allowing the power of YOUR WORD to cut to the core of our hearts and transform our lives, we are now sugarcoating YOUR WORD to encourage people to come into a building where we are made to feel as if we are truly working for YOUR KINGDOM, when in essence, we are following the teachings of man and instead of transforming the world, we cannot be distinguished from the world.

Christ’s message to us was and still is, “Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel….” (Mark 16: 15). He did not just say this – He actually did it. He did not wait for the people to come to Him - instead, He went to the people.

There are some who are following the example of Jesus but there are many of us who are not. Please forgive us and help us now to begin to work the work the way Jesus worked the work while He was on earth. 

In Jesus’ name we pray,

Amen

Prayer for Families

12/21/2013

0 Comments

 
Dear God,

Tonight I pray for families who are concerned about the whereabouts and condition of their loved ones whom they have not seen or heard from in a while.

God, only you truly know the heartache, pain and suffering they are going through as they wonder whether they are eating; if they have somewhere to stay and if they are alright. 

I ask that you bring peace and comfort to each parent, sibling and relative who is experiencing this concern, wherever they may be on this earth and give them an assurance that if they put their trust in you, you are able to keep safe and secure, all whom they entrust unto you.

In Jesus' name. Amen

McCartney Family

10/29/2013

Dear God,

Tonight we present Branville McCartney and his family to YOU. The loss of loved ones is always difficult and painful but when their lives are taken in a tragic and murderous way, it is more difficult to accept and the pain is heavier to bear.

We ask that YOU comfort them this night and in the midst of their trying to understand and come to terms with this tragedy, let them not lose hope in YOU.

In Jesus' name we pray, Amen

Tragic Loss of Lives

10/29/2013

0 Comments

 
Dear God,

We had two tragic losses in a matter of days. 19 year old Natalie Elsie was killed in a lone car accident  and a young man in his 20's was killed in an accident he had as he rode his motorcycle. 

The pain that both of these families are experiencing cannot be described in words but YOU, O GOD, understand their tears.

We ask that you comfort the families during this most difficult time and encourage those  who do not yet acknowledge you as the God of their salvation to come into a right relationship with YOU while the opportunity is still available to them.   

In Jesus' name we pray. Amen

Prayer re: Tragedy in Nassau Bahamas

9/23/2013

0 Comments

 
Dear God,

The tragedy in Nassau where a family of six lost their lives in a fire is almost too much to comprehend. We cannot imagine the pain those left behind are experiencing and there are no words that can bring them peace at this time. 

We ask that You send your angels to surround them and bring them comfort from above, as no earthly comfort can ease their pain right now.

Cover them with Your love O God, and in their pain, let them not disrespect You. Accidents happen – some more tragic than others – but You O God are our constant tower of strength that can get us through any situation. 

We commit them into your hand this night O God, and thank you for comforting them with your peace from above.

In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen
