Prayers for the Thristy

Father, I pray for people. People who do not yet know You, people who do not know that they are deeply and thoroughly loved. You urge us through Paul in 1 Timothy 2 to pray fr all people. We should ask You to help them. It is pleasing to You because You want everyone to be saved and to understand the truth. You gave Your life to purchase freedom for everyone.

So Lord, I pray for those who do not yet know You. I pray that You would reach Randy Singh with the truth of Your gospel -- really reach Him Father. May He know that Your love covers all sins and would he not fight to keep the person that he is right now. Help him to let go of himself and surrender everything to you Lord Jesus. Light of the world, penetrate the darkness within him.

I pray for Mike Hwang. Would he search for the water that will quench his thirst. Thirst for closeness and love, thirst for fulfillment. Would You halt his chase after things that do not satisfy and break through his deafness. Tear the veil the shields him for from the understanding that his contentment and fulfillment will only come once he's in relationship with You Jesus. Deepen his emptiness and discontent with the things that the world claims will satisfy and present Yourself to him as the One who quenches all thirst, satisfies all desires, gives true purpose and meaning to our lives.

Lord, I pray for Nehemiah also. His name means "Comforted by Jehovah." I pray Father, that You would truly fit that role in his life. At the moment, You are not his God. But Lord, I know that You are mighty to save. You save everyone, people of all types. You save the ones whom no one would ever believe could come to know Christ as Lord and Savior! And so even though I suspect Nehemiah to be an atheist, is there anything to hard for the Lord (Jeremiah 32:27, Genesis 18:14)? Save him Father! It is Your Will anyway! I pray this in Christ's Name, so let it be so!

And Father, I pray for Paige. She has questions, she thinks deeply. Bless and gift her with the knowledge of the glory of Jesus Christ. Show her why You are the Chosen One, the Messiah. Show her the reality of Your existence, bless her with the truth of Your LOVE and who You are. Hallelujah. Guide her straight to You Father. And may nothing stand in Your way of making her a daughter of the King! I praise You in advance and am excited for the sisters in Christ that we will be! Hallelujah, Amen!

All these things I pray in the Name of Jesus -- the Name that brings peace, breaks strongholds, through the nations into uproar, and which conquered death. In Your Name I pray Lord,

Amen! Let it be so!

10:46 am

At the cross I bow my knee

Where Your blood was shed for me

There's no greater love than this

You have overcome the grave

Your glory fills the highest place

What can separate me now?

Lord, help me to remember that You are the greatest love story ever told

The greatest love ever known

Help me to see that the things that I go through in this life are light momentary afflictions, preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison (2 Corinthians 4:17).

There is no greater love than this.

Hallelujah.

Father, I offer praises of thanksgiving. Thank You for what You are doing inside of me. Thank You for renewing my inner self day by day (2 Corinthians 4:16). Help me to not lose heart, Hallelujah. I pray that the death of Jesus would be present in me, so that others may see the life of Jesus and be saved. In my darkness, my suffering, my affliction, may the glory of God be so obvious that people are moved to know Christ Jesus. To know Christ Jesus. Conocer, not ser. Help me to hold on to You. Develop in me a contentment in who You are Father. Let it be so.

10:16 am

Lord, I need You.

Please remove the apathy, the lack of motivation, the great passivity. I feel like I'm going through the motions. I don't want to do anything. Everything feels like a burden Lord. Please help me, give me joy in You, peace in You. Teach me, guide me, root me in Your love. Help me to persevere and endure, even with these feelings. Word I not dishonor You with my laziness. Would I glorify You with my best in my schoolwork and with how I steward my time. Hallelujah Jesus. Help me to encourage myself in You. In Christ's Name I pray, Amen.

Michelle B.

Lord, I pray for my sister Michelle.

Would you help her hear Your voice?

She loves You Lord. And she wants to hear You and know You. Please speak. Please guide. Please direct. Please clarify.

May the praises of God forever be on her lips Jesus. Keep her and protect her. Hallelujah.

In the Name of Jesus, Amen.

Lord, I pray for Lauren and Katlyn who will be leading small group tonight. I pray that it would grow in the direction You want it to go. I pray that people would begin to open up and share what they discover when they read Your Word. I praise You for the highs and for the lows; keep them humble Lord, so they would continue to look to You but encourage their hearts as they lead. I pray that Your grace would cover them and that they would praise You for what You are doing in small group. I thank You for calling them to lead in this capacity; would You bless them with joy as they serve and obey You. Strengthen them, guide them, uphold them with Your Righteous Right Hand. And would they grow. I pray for their members, that they would grow in their understanding of who You are through Bible Study, prayer, and community. I pray that Your Word would not return void Lord Jesus. Hallelujah! Do AWESOME things, more than we can ask or even think, through this CIW small group!!! Let it be so Lord Jesus!

AMEN.

Dear Lord, I pray over this broadcast. Would people be lead to You through this. I pray for Dave. Please speak through him. Hallelujah! I thank You for this opportunity. May people understand more of who You are through this broadcast. Would You hit hearts. Would there be honesty, questions, would You prick minds and hearts. Hallelujah. Have YOUR Way with this broadcast dear Lord. Amen.

Janice Everest

Lord Jesus,

Thank You that You're real. Thank You that You keep Your promises. Thank You for hearing the requests of Your people and for taking control of the Bible discussion. Hallelujah. Would I grow in fondness of You and trust in You Lord.

Lord, I pray for Janice Everest. I pray that she would know the LOVE of Christ. That You would show her that she does not have to offer her body to anybody. That the brokenness in her, You would heal. Pour out Your love Lord. Would she give her soul and her body to You Father. Transform her and draw her close to You. Hallelujah. You are mighty to save, and I pray, in the Name of Jesus, that You would save her. Hallelujah. May God's Love be all she desires. Amen.

Lord, I am struggling. Help me to put my hope in You! Would I not be anxious over anything. Would the spirit of worry not rule me Father. Would Your peace guard my heart and mind in Christ Jesus for the rest of today and this week. Would I know in my heart and be aware of the fact that You are with me; wherever I go, in whatever I do, I have the Father with me. When my world is shaking, You stand. When my heart is breaking, I never leave Your Hands. I pray for contentment in Your unfailing love oh Lord. Hallelu Yahweh. Amen.
