Dear Father, Master, King
Today our church host a special event “Aggie’s for Christ” it starts with a men’s prayer breakfast to call on You for blessing of the day. A lunch is served and a devo with a skit is planned for tonight. Father much work goes into events of this nature so as to honor You and Your place in our lives so bless the efforts of those involved and give us a good turn out for this event. Keep all safe who are working and let good ideas arise from the basic use of this tool to touch Your people.
I got an e-mail this morning Father and it had these words in it so I copied them because I thought for this day it would be a blessing to ask these things in Christ name for our church, our elders and our people. Prayer is perceived sometimes in odd ways but Lord honor these words and help us to understand the need for us to pray for family and friends.
“May today be all you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams at night, and conquer all your fears. May God manifest himself today in ways you have never experienced. May your joys be fulfilled, your dreams be closer, and your prayers be answered. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged and that you have all the blessing of this life. I pray for peace, healing, health, happiness, prosperity, joy, true and undying love for God.”
Father that’s a prayer I would like to extend to my friends and to my family everyday. It would be so peaceful and calming to know that each day those things were prayed into Your hands and Your will. All of the inventory of names could share in that prayer that comes to You today on bended knees because we know in You there is hope. It will directly affect someone today to know they were prayed for and it will help to clean up some of the messes of this life. Keep us busy with the long-term clean up measures. We as Your body have a lot of work to do let us not grow weary in the efforts. Keep us full of the rewards that are in this work now so that the rewards later will make it worth every moment it took. Breath the Holy Spirit into us today and make it known that we belong to You. Show us the way Father and do not let harm come to Your children.
Father, be with the hammered communities in Haiti, those who stand bare in the streets with nothing hold them up. Send help to them Father and give relief quickly to those that are in great need. There is a tragic environmental image being seen here Father and Your help is needed to calm this collective natural disaster. What happens sometimes is sinister, streets are littered with the dead the only word is heartbreaking as we can on watch the coverage on television. Rescue, heal and be with those who mourn and hurt and those that are helping during this tragic earthquake. Father, when anything like this happens there are always ripple effects so touch people hearts and let them not do harm to each other in the name of desperation and fear. Be with the governments that are in charge to make sure that things are done that will be a blessing to that area. Give men who have power a clear mind to act quickly and rightly in all matters of concern.
Father, also be with our country and our leadership. Governing bodies don’t always make the right choices but there is a reason for them to be in place that is under Your will and under Your control. What should be will be and there is no stopping a plan already put into place so we honor that and keep working for the good of those who love God. Help us be proactive Father in making sure we do what we can. Help us to help You in all matters. Let us be Your voice, don’t make us to meek in speaking out if it’s Your will. Give us knowledge and power to be strong in the face of defeated values. Keep us all whole and intact as we go about our daily lives. Stock markets may take all our savings and illness take our health so we hold true to the one thing that mankind and life can not take away and that is our hope in the blood of Christ and in our coming salvation. Let our hearts be still and know that God is still God and that will never change.
Father, I pray it to You daily for the answers of this life, for the consoling spirit that I need to go about my day. Hope for my family and hope for the church, Your body here. Let it all go to the feet of Jesus let Him work daily to be our focus and cross. Let us pick it up and do whatever is needed for it is in His name that it is prayed. Forever more. Amen.
