Prayer of the Week

3/23

Psalm 139

O Lord, you have searched me [thoroughly] and have known me. You know when I sit down and when I rise up [my entire life, everything I do]; You understand my thoughts from afar. You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and You are intimately acquainted with all my ways. Even before there is a word on my tongue [still unspoken], behold, O Lord, You know it all.


You have enclosed me behind and before, and [You have] placed Your hand upon me. Such [infinite] knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is too high [above me], I cannot reach it. Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? If I ascend to heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol (the nether world, the place of the dead), behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the dawn, if I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, even there Your hand will lead me, and Your right hand will take hold of me.


If I say, “Surely the darkness will cover me, and the night will be the only light around me,” even the darkness is not dark to You and conceals nothing from You, but the night shines as bright as the day; darkness and light are alike to You. For You formed my innermost parts; You knit me [together] in my mother’s womb. I will give thanks and praise to You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; wonderful are Your works, and my soul knows it very well.

 
My frame was not hidden from You, when I was being formed in secret, and intricately and skillfully formed [as if embroidered with many colors] in the depths of the earth. Your eyes have seen my unformed substance; and in Your book were all written the days that were appointed for me, when as yet there was not one of them [even taking shape]. How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I could count them, they would outnumber the sand. When I awake, I am still with You. 

O that You would kill the wicked, O God; go away from me, therefore, men of bloodshed. For they speak against You wickedly,Your enemies take Your name in vain. Do I not hate those who hate You, O Lord? And do I not loathe those who rise up against You? I hate them with perfect and utmost hatred; they have become my enemies. Search me [thoroughly], O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts; and see if there is any wicked or hurtful way in me, and lead me in the everlasting way.

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11

Prayer of the Week

3/16

In my reading time the Holy Spirit lead me to Psalm 17 and as I was reading it, I felt that He wanted me to put this as our prayer for the week:

Hear the just (righteous) cause, O Lord; listen to my loud [piercing] cry; listen to my prayer, that comes from guileless lips. Let my verdict of vindication come from Your presence; may Your eyes look with equity and behold things that are just. You have tried my heart; You have visited me in the night; You have tested me and You find nothing [evil in me]; I intend that my mouth will not transgress. Concerning the deeds of men, by the word of Your lips I have kept away from the paths of the violent.


My steps have held closely to Your paths; my feet have not staggered. I have called upon You, for You, O God, will answer me; Incline Your ear to me, hear my speech. Wondrously show Your [marvelous and amazing] lovingkindness, O Savior of those who take refuge at Your right hand From those who rise up against them. Keep me [in Your affectionate care, protect me] as the [a]apple of Your eye; hide me in the [protective] shadow of Your wings from the wicked who despoil and deal violently with me, my deadly enemies who surround me.


They have closed their unfeeling heart [to kindness and compassion]; with their mouths they speak proudly and make presumptuous claims. They track us down and have now surrounded us in our steps; they set their eyes to force us to the ground, he is like a lion eager to tear [his prey], and like a young lion lurking in hiding places.


Arise, O Lord, confront him, cast him down; save my soul from the wicked with Your sword, from men with Your hand, O Lord, from men of the world [these moths of the night] whose portion [of enjoyment] is in this life—idle and vain, and whose belly You fill with Your treasure; they are satisfied with children, and they leave what they have left [of wealth] to their children.

As for me, I shall see Your face in righteousness; I will be [fully] satisfied when I awake [to find myself] seeing Your likeness.

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11

Father,

I thank you for this week! I thank you for the wisdom and knowledge to start this week with you! Thank you for being my God and for sending the Holy Spirit to lead guid, comfort and direct me. To You be glory and praise!

Our Father in heaven, thank you that you are my father, and I get to call your father! You cover me, you protect me, you heal me, you watch over me, you lead me, you guide me, you are tender towards me, and you provide for me. You are my refuge and my fortress, my strong tower; You know what is ahead for me this week and you have already provided because you have gone before me. Hallelujah! 

Hallowed be your name. I praise you for you are holy! The Most Holy one! Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty who was, and is and is to come! I praise Your holy name! My soul praises you and lifts you high! To You be glory and praise! Your Kingdom come and thy will be done on earth as is done heaven! Thank you Jesus for you have come to live inside of me!

Moving in conformity towards the truth without error as the Holy Spirit directs me. I pray for a consistent daily time of worship, praise and sitting with you.

And forgive my debts as I also have forgiven my debtors. Father, remind me of those I have not forgiven, I repent of my sin and any and all that I have done wrong. Your word says that not one is righteous, so I seek forgiveness of all known and unknown sins. Help me not to yield to temptation, but deliver me from evil.

For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever! You are God alone; there is no other God, and there never has been, and there never will be. You are the Lord, and there is no other Savior. From eternity to eternity, You alone are God. All honor and glory belongs to You forever an ever!

The Blessing

The Holy Spirit woke me up early in the morning with the song “The Blessing” on my heart. At the time I did not know that was the name of the song. I had heard the melody a few days earlier but didn’t know the words. This morning, I knew I needed to find out what the song was saying.

 

I love how God works. He never gives us everything at once but draws us closer and closer to Himself. He was starting a conversation with me, and He invited me to engage. The melody was the invitation. When I went to research the words, He started talking. I sat and let the melody He had put in my heart play over and over, and eventually a line of the song became clear. See, I was sitting listening to God, He was pouring out His blessing on me and I had no idea what He was doing. He is so good and loves us so much!

 

God is always giving us direction; He has a daily word for each of us. He is our commander! In prayer He tells us to ask for our daily bread. The bread is His Word, which gives us instructions and clarity on our assignment for the day. That morning I received encouragement and confidence in Him and in who I was in Him.

 

The song is written from multiple scriptures:

 

‘“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face shine on you and be gracious to you; the Lord turn his face toward you and give you peace”’ (Numbers 6:24-26).

 

“Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments” (Deuteronomy 7:9-10).

 

“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged” (Deuteronomy 31:8).

 

And all who are in agreement with those words, we say amen!

 

 

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11

I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live. Deuteronomy 30:19, ESV

Adonai, To you be glory and praise! My soul worships you and praises your name! Because of what Yeshua did on the cross I have a choice. I can choose to live with you.

Thank you for this moment of just sitting with you and saying, “Yes!” again. Yes to everything you ask, yes to laying down my will, yes to my soul being sold out to you.

Oh magnify the lord with me, let us exalt his name together for he is worthy to be praised!  Lift up your heads, O gates! And be lifted up, O ancient doors, that the king of glory may come in.

For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and a self-control. 2 Timothy 1:7

Adonai! Hallelujah! I give you praise and I worship you! You have not withheld anything from me. You created me and you own me and I am yours. Every thought of mine you know and my soul belongs to you. You remember not my wrongs for they are covered by your blood. You have poured your righteousness into me. My righteousness is not because of my works, but because of what you did on the cross. 

I am so grateful that you did not give me a spirit of fear and every time fear shows up in my life it is a reminder that this thing is not from you. Hallelujah! You have given me a spirit of power, of love and of a sound mind. I thank you that my mind is sound. I thank you that I have your spirit. I thank you that your love dwells in me and all over me. I thank you for a sharp self—disciplined mind that is always seeking to obey you. 

I praise you that all these blessing are because of you. I praise you that you are the righteous God! There is no one righteous, but you! I praise you that you are the God of peace, Jehovah Shalom and that peace sits in my soul! I praise you for being ELOHIM the creator of the universe and there is not a soul like you. Thank you for making a way for the world to access you. Thank you that you love all of us and that no matter what sins we have committed your arms are open to receive and correct us with love. I love that you are so kind! Thank you for being my God!

Thank you Father, that as I end this year, I do it with you being my strength and my portion.

I celebrate you and the peace that you have brought to this world! There is joy and peace only because of you! Hallelujah! My soul sits back and rejoices because of all that you have done. My mind can’t even begin to comprehend your goodness, but I know that I sit in this space because of you. I know that this moment is your divine activation that I even have the desire to pray a prayer to you. Nothing good comes from me except that you took up residence inside my soul! Hallelujah!

Thank you God for your son Jesus! Thank you Jesus for living in me. Thank you Holy Spirit, thank you for guiding, directing and prompting me. In you, O Lord I have refuge and I will never be put to shame; for you deliver me in your righteousness. You turn your ear to me and you rescue me! I sit in the greatest gift of all; my rock, my refuge, my fortress, my strong tower and I rest in the shelter of your presence. To you be glory and praise forever amen!

Prayer for the Week

December 16

To you, Lord, I call. You are my Rock, do not turn a deaf ear to me. For if you remain silent, I will be like those who go down to the pit. Hear my cry for mercy as I call to you for help, as I lift up my hands toward your Most Holy Place. Do not drag me away with the wicked, with those who do evil, who speak cordially with their neighbors, but harbor malice in their hearts. Repay them for their deeds and for their evil work. Repay them for what their hands have done and bring back on them what they deserve.

Because they have no regard for the deeds of the Lord and what his hands have done, he will tear them down and never build them up again. Praise be to the Lord, for he has heard my cry for mercy. The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him. The Lord is the strength of his people, a fortress of salvation for his anointed one. Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd and carry them forever. Psalm 28, NIV

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11

Prayer of the Week

December 9

Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. John 15:12-13

ELOHIM, 

Thank you for your plan from the beginning of time. Thank you that you love all that you created. Thank you for you knew the world would turn evil, but it has never changed your love. Scriptures says that you are Lord and you change not! I praise your Holy name! I praise you, God that even though I see evil all around me, you see the love you have placed inside each individual. I pray for transformation in my soul so that I can love as you have said.

You have given me the mind of Christ through the Holy Spirit, and I pray that as you work through me the unconditional love of you will flow uncontrollably so that all who encounter me will literally be standing before you. I surrender all to you. Your will is my will and your desires are my desires. Have your complete way in me! May the light of God be always on in me. To you be glory and praise in Jesus’ name, .amen.

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11

Prayer of the Week

November 25

The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. Lamentations 3:22, ESV

Holy Father,

When I read the scripture above gratitude and gratefulness fill my soul. I don’t know how to say thank you for your goodness. The words “thank you” just don’t seem to be enough to express how grateful I am. Your love, your generosity, your kindness, leaves me speechless! When I think about your goodness and all you have done for me, I am consumed by your presence and goodness! My soul is overwhelmed! Hallelujah to such a wonderful God!

Your love is unfailing, your kindness never ends, my soul is overwhelmed in the joy of you. My arms are lifted high, my mouth utter words of unknown tongues that give praises to you and I am filled with your Holy Presence! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Praise be to the God most High! ELOHIM, I love you! Thank you

Affirmations: Matthew 10:20; Luke 24:32; Ephesians 6:19, Isaiah 55:11
