Everlasting God You are welcome here,
You are the Creator of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen. The only one worthy of praise. King of glory, Lord of wonder. I pray for patience, as I wait upon Your arrival. May this time be used wisely to establish my heart. You have said to believe in You my Lord and God and I would be create a new. To believe in Your prophets and I shall prosper.

Keep me from muttering about another's life or walk with You, may my eyes be fixed on my Savior. Father as I reflect on Your prophets of old, their examples of patience and suffering, I think how blessed they where to endure. Father, I pray for endurance for all those who believe. Help us to improve the lives of our brothers and sister who are facing trails, growing weary, feeling weak and defeated. May You anoint our lips with encouragement to build up those in Your body who are under attack. Let the words of our mouths be fortification that is nourishment for those who are coming under scrutiny. May Your loving Spirit over rule those thoughts of condemnation in the minds who judges with a magnify glass the hearts of Your chosen and elect. May I always remember my own shortcomings and Christ who has covered my sins, not casting a stone on a fellow believer for the error they have made. Lord use my hands to catch a stumbling brethren and keep them from falling into the pit. Increase in me a heart compassion, so Your love will cover a multitude of sin and block them from view. Forgive me Lord for not speaking more boldly bringing correction to a soul who rises up to criticize some one else. I pray Lord for Your children to be ready, not letting our oil lamps burn out for You are coming. In Jesus name, Amen.

John 16:8
And when the He has come He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness and of judgement:
Thank You Lord Jesus that You have sent me the Helper who come from the Father. He is the Spirit of truth that will testify through me about You my Lord and Savior. Bless you Jesus for making my payment for my sin. Receiving Your full pardon is the only cure for the disease of sin. Father there are many who are in sin thinking this reference is to the sins of adultery, pride, or gluttony when Your desire is to open their eyes to who Your Son is and all that You have so graciously and lovingly done for us. Fill me today Lord with Your Holy Spirit to be Your mouth piece to share the Good News, the truth about sin, righteousness and judgement. Father by Your Spirit may I bear witness in my home, neighborhood, the town in which I dwell, and even to the ends of the earth. Father I pray for the lost souls who are living in darkness, trying to work things out on the own, formulating answers to the question "Where do I go when I die?" Father as the Apostle Peter said in the book of Acts that cut them to the heart when they asked "What shall we do?" he replied with "Repent, and let everyone of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Father, thank You for opening the eyes of the blind to see Jesus is the only righteous One, and by His shed blood on the cross, He covers us in His righteousness. Thank You Lord for choosing me, I know in my heart is was not me who chose You. Thank You Lord for no longer calling me servant but You have called me friend when You did the greatest thing ever, laying down Your life for me. Lord there is truly no greater love than this. I pray Lord that this gift You have so freely given and the revelation of the truth of who You are will cause me to bear much fruit for You, fruit that will remain. May I love others as You have commanded so they may taste and see Your goodness. In You Holy name Jesus, Amen

John 18:1
When Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples over the brook of Kidron, where there was a garden which He and His disciples entered.
Joel 2:12-13
Dear Heavenly Father,
You have asked that I turn to You with all my heart. I should rend my heart and not my garments, returning to You. You're gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and great in kindness. You have relented from doing harm. You Lord Jesus excuse no one from prayer in times of spiritual emergency. Jesus, You went with Your disciples over the brook of Kidon which means dark or to mourn but it led to a garden. You continually teach me by the power of Your Holy Spirit, just as Your beautiful and precious Son passed through darkness and was brought to the glory of the resurrection to new life, all areas of living must come to death be mourned and released to You to enter into the garden of vitality. I pray Lord as I surrender my health into Your loving care, You will not only heal my body, but my soul that feels defeated from the battle. I pray Lord, You would lead me to the garden so I may eat from the tree of life, nourishing me in wisdom and knowledge on how to proceed in proper caret that is most beneficial for my body. Put to death Lord all my pride that thinks I can handle this on my own. I pray for all those who are faced with health issues that seem enormous, leaving them feeling discourage and helpless, bathe them Lord in Your peace, surround them in love, so they will know You have not forgotten them. Touch them today and heal them both spiritually and physically. Please reveal Yourself to them in mighty ways, may all the world look and be amazed. Comfort those who mourn and are walking in darkness, lead them over the bridge into the garden of peace and rest. Father thank You for hearing my prayers and the prayers of Your children who are in spiritual emergencies, come quickly and speak into our hearts. I love You Lord and place my hope and trust in You and You alone. In Your mighty and matchless name Jesus, Amen.

Matthew 8:16
When evening had come, they brought to Him many who where demon-possessed. And He cast out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick.
Have mercy on me, O God, according to Your lovingkindness; according to Your tender mercies. Blot out my transgressions, wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin. Restore to my the joy of Your salvation. Thank You Father, for the privilege to enter Your courts, to bring petitions for healing. Jesus, You healed ALL who were sick. Bless You Jesus that by Your stripes we are healed! I thank You Father that in the evening hours of my loved ones who are ill, I can still come to You for You never sleep or grow weary. Thank You for Your mercy and compassion to restore health to all who are in need of a touch. Those with poison ivy, digestive issues, heart conditions, varicose veins, liver diseases of sorts, brain tumors, aneurysm, and breast cancer. Thank You Lord that the darkness of the night turns to the Light of day, bringing vitality, vibrancy and voices of thanksgiving and praise by those who have received a miracle. You have said we only need to have faith of a mustard seed and we would see mountains move. Move the those mountains in the lives of those with infirmities and the medical expenses that have weight them down with worry. Jesus be glorified! Lord You also casted out spirits that have been permitted to afflict a body with disease. Cover Your children in Your precious blood so the enemy cannot enter in but must passover. Thank You Lord that Your word is true. Jesus just a You loosed the women with infirmity and immediately she was made straight and glorified You, loose others today who are bent over from addictions and can't raise themselves. Lord hear their calls for help even if its the faintest of sound. Deliver them to live a life that is free and upright. Thank You Jesus for all gifts of healing You so generously pour out through Your Spirit. I love You my King. I'm in awe of You. In Christ name, Amen.

James 1:5
If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
Dear Heavenly Father,
I come to You early this morning with a request; I do not require information regarding how to avoid this time of testing but wisdom and a fresh perspective on the trial I currently face. I know You work all things together for the good of those who love You and are called for Your good purpose. Well Lord I really, really love You so there must be something really good that will come out of this. Father I pray You will open my ears to Your instruction and be filled with wisdom. Father, I have often prayed to be lifted up, again I ask You to raise me above this current condition so I may see from a different vantage point the victory that is on the horizon. Lord I pray for the wisdom You said You would freely give from above that is first pure, than peaceable, gentle and willing to yield. I surrender my will into Your loving hands, and my heart is willing to obey Your Spirit. Lead me to the answers to all the questions I have regarding this matter. Father I pray for others who are in need of wisdom as well, give liberally to them. Deepen our faith and trust through these challenges that we face. Jesus, heal the hearts of the broken, the bodies of the sick and minds of those who are tormented by things of the past. I pray we would all learn and grow through our adversities and be stronger and better for it. Use these situations to bring glory to You. Polish our souls so they shine like silver reflecting Your beautiful image. Thank You. I love You Lord, You are my all in all, my strength, strong tower and refuge. In Jesus precious name, Amen.

James 1:8
He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
O Lord, search me and know me. You know my sitting down and my rising up. Father I ask Your forgiveness over the times I sit down not wanting to do what You have asked me to do. I also ask forgiveness over the times I rise up and do things my own way. Lord You know my thoughts that are far away from You, making me unstable in my ways. I pray Lord You would hedge me behind and before that I would not be tossed by the waves of world around me. Father, there is no where I can go from Your Spirit. If my pride would try to have me flee from Your presence, You are still there. Oh Father how precious Your thought are of me. How great is the sum of them, if I was to try to count them they would be more than the number of the sand. Lord as I sit here this morning, thinking on the sight of all the sand on the beaches and in the deserts around the world, I am awestruck! How ridiculous are my notions that sometimes cause me to doubt that I have a great big Father who loves me. Lord I pray Psalm 139 would just saturate my soul and the souls of others, to stop us mid-thought to know there is none like You. Jesus You are my one true desire. May my mind be completely fixed on You. Some, Lord, would say that makes me closed minded, but I say You grant me peace that far out passes anything else. Most ideas want to keep me uncertain, uneasy and uncomfortable, so Lord I pray You would fill me with Your Holy Spirit to continue to teach me Your truth. "I love You Jesus", is my single minded thought today and for every day. I love Jesus. Amen

Matthew 6:22
The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore your eye is good, your whole body will be full of light.
Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! Father may I serve You with gladness and come before Your presence with singing. I know that You are God. Father You have made me, a sheep of Your pasture so I may enter Your gates with thanksgiving, and courts with praise. I pray Lord to walk within my house with a perfect heart. May I not set anything wicked before my eyes. Lord may I know You so intimately, I may come to love what You love and reject what You reject. I pray, instead of thinking on the things that are unworthy, that my heart and mind would be fixed on things that are true, noble, just, pure, lovely and virtuous. Hmm, I know the one that is all this and so much more. Why it is You sweet Jesus! May my eyes reflect the image of You as I gaze upon Your beauty. I pray that all the world around me would see Your Spirit shining forth from the windows of my soul. Father, as You walk with me today continue to reveal the condition of those whose life's surround me. May I see You in them as well. Open my heart to have compassion on those who's eyes are filled with darkness, perhaps from never hearing the truth of the greatest gift ever given. May Your tenderness flow through me to reach another who is darkened by pain and hopelessness for various reasons. Lord Jesus may kindness not only be in the form of giving of material needs or acts of service, but in gentle correction to someone who is headed in the wrong direction, the way that lead to eternal death. I pray Lord that You would have Your children shine today, may be glorified in and through them. I love You Jesus, Amen.
