April 15
LET US PRAY: Father, we pray for our men of the Body of Christ today. We ask you to keep them strong, wise and true before you. We ask you to use your power to maintain their sobriety in you. We ask that You not let them go astray! We need their stability in you to fully experience your protection and expansion. Encourage them in You today that they would recommit to our families, churches and communities; humble them before you by sending them a blessing that will for once and for all prove to them that You hear them and that You hold their destiny in Your hands. We need them! We love our men of the Kingdom. We thank you for them! In Jesus name we pray. Amen!
[We also pray for our future. We pray specifically for April ___, 2015, that it will be a day of great harvest, victory, unity, miracles, signs and wonders for the Body of Christ. We declare the word of God: Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail. We have been given the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever we shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever we shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven (Matthew 16:18, 19). Be it unto us even as you have said!]
Due to the fact that you sent Jesus to set the captive free, we have full assurance that you will hear this prayer of intercession. So, Father we have humbly made our requests known unto you so now we commit the responsibility of touching the hearts of your people and overthrowing any and all demonic strongholds to you and your heavenly host for your eternal glory. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
January 8
Father, we love and adore you. We thank you for your grace and mercy that you have extended toward us by making all grace abound toward us that in all things we would have sufficiency. Praise your wisdom and power that is matchless.
In prudence have you given us power to trend over serpents, scorpions and over ALL of the power of the enemy. Today we stand in THAT power calling forth the Spirit of Righteousness in the church. We pray for the members of the Body of Christ, that they may find the strength, will and fortitude to modify the deeds of our bodies. We pray that Holy Spirit will birth within us all a new thirst and hunger for righteous living. We pray that your people will find displeasure in the things that displease you and fulfillment in the things that bring you joy. We pray that the Church will be a reflection of you in the earth as we live our daily lives for your glory.
We stand in the gap for your people today. We do repent to you as a whole for practicing unrighteousness. We repent for not being better stewards over the gates of our souls. We are sorry for finding pleasure, entertainment and amusement in the things that caused you to judge the world in the past and still brings your heart pain and your Spirit grief. Father, it is our intention to move away from those things in order to live a pure life. Your Word admonishes us being born of You to purify ourselves.
It is our prayer that we find more pleasure in the things of the Spirit and less in the things of this world. For all of our brothers and sisters that are dealing with demonic strongholds, we ask you to use your power to deliver them now! We make up a hedge about them! We ask you to cleanse their blood of all generational curses, addictions and habits. We ask you to transform their minds in order to help them see themselves as sons and daughters of The Most High and to develop healthy spiritual and natural lifestyles. We call them clean. We call them sanctified. We call them delivered.
We thank you for the blood of your dear Son that has made us apart of the accepted, the beloved. We have not been condemned by You. We freely receive the same forgiveness that was afforded the woman taken in adultery. And, likewise, we hear the Spirit speak to us to go our way and sin no more. If we fall in the future, we purpose to not wallow in sin but use the advocacy of Christ to keep moving forward in you.
[We also pray for our future. We pray specifically for January ___, 2015, that it will be a day of great harvest, victory, unity, miracles, signs and wonders for the Body of Christ. We declare the word of God: Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail. We have been given the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever we shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever we shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven (Matthew 16:18, 19). Be it unto us even as you have said!]
Due to the fact that you sent Jesus to set the captive free, we have full assurance that you will hear this prayer of intercession. So, Father we have humbly made our requests known unto you so now we commit the responsibility of touching the hearts of your people and overthrowing any and all demonic strongholds to you and your heavenly host for your eternal glory. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
January 1 -
Father, we come to you in the name of Jesus. On the prefaces of this year, we gather ourselves together as your Great Body petitioning you to regard and hear us as we make intercessions for The Church. We are committing ourselves to praying for the overall health and well being of your church by praying against the influences of the powers of darkness that have invaded Holy Ground, praying for those godly leaders that labor in word and doctrine, praying for the protection of the sheep as they work out their salvation in the midst of this wicked and perverse generation and praying that Christ will make known His preeminence in "His Church" as He did the churches of Revelation chapters 2 and 3.
We put on the whole armor of God that we may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. We declare the decree of your word that no weapon formed against us shall prosper and every tongue that rise against us in judgment we shall condemn it in this matter (Isaiah 54:17). We sanctify this prayer assignment unto you believing that at its conclusion your perfect will, will have been done. For that reason, we entreat your Holy Spirit to lead and guide all of us.
Today we pray [pray again] for a spirit of unity and cooperation throughout the Body of Christ universal. We declare your word that "We’re all moving rhythmically and easily with each other, efficient and graceful in response to Your Son, fully mature adults, fully developed within and without, fully alive like Christ. There are no prolonged infancies among us. We’ll not tolerate babes in the woods, small children who are an easy mark for impostors. You want us to grow up, to know the whole truth and tell it in love—like Christ in everything." (Ephesians 4:12-15 MES)
We also pray for our future. We pray specifically for January ___, 2015, that it will be a day of great harvest, victory, unity, miracles, signs and wonders for the Body of Christ. We declare the word of God: Upon this rock I will build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail. We have been given the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever we shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever we shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven (Matthew 16:18, 19). Be it unto us even as you have said!
Father, we have humbly made our requests known unto you so now we commit the responsibility of touching the hearts of your people and overthrowing any and all demonic strongholds to you and your heavenly host for your eternal glory. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.
