This is the day which the LORD hath made ; we will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalms 118:24
Each day, I thank God for all that He has done in my life, I thank Him for His creation of the world and for the new creature He has caused me to be;
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away ; behold , all things are become new. and in Yours that is moving us ever closer to the design He has purposed for our life. 2 Corinthians 5:17
Secondly, I praise God from whom all blessings flow! And always, we want to thank God for Jesus, the sacrificial lamb who made salvation possible for us.
My prayer this
morning is directed toward intercession for the people; for the miraculous power of God to
be manifest in our lives, our friends, family, loved ones, co-workers; and whoever
else God has laid on our hearts to pray for.
The scripture for
today is found in Exodus:
We see that the children of Israel had just been led into the desert of
Shur and they had been there 3 days with no water and they began to mumble and
complain against Moses. But, this is it
– Moses, being in the position he was, interceded before God for the
people. And after having a conversation with God, told the children of Israel:
. . . If thou wilt diligently hearken
to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in His sight,
and wilt give ear to His commandments, and keep all these statutes, I will put
none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for
I am the Lord that healeth thee. (Exodus 15:26)
Signs and wonders are to follow us, but we have to be in position for that to happen; namely, diligently hearkening to the voice of the Lord; our God, doing that which is right in His sight, giving ear to His commandments, and keeping all His statutes . . .
The word tells us
And
the prayer offered in faith will make the sick person well; the
Lord will raise him up. If he has sinned, he will be forgiven.
We
know the God we serve as Jehovah Rapha; meaning he is the physician, the
healer. And he operates through us based on
our faith in Him.
It is not our own
doing. We are to be the facilitators of
healing; allowing God to work through us; we are the channel through which the
Healer, Christ Jesus, operates through.
Through Him healing comes to:
- People who face terminal malignancies and endure great pain.
- People who are frustrated, hopeless, and ready to give up.
- People who have lost loved ones or been hurt by others.
- People bound with chains of sin and demonic oppression.
- People in or facing financial distress
God is able to do that and much more than we can even think or imagine!
Having said that, with all minds being on one accord, let us pray:
Having said that, with all minds being on one accord, let us pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You
this morning with grateful hearts and praise on our lips that You woke us just one
more day; that You allowed us to wake this day with our health and our strength
and clothed in our right mind. Lord, in this day and time, we do not take anything for granted and we recognize that it is because of your grace and mercy that we are here and it is by your grace and mercy that we live, move and have our being. We thank You
because we have a continued mind to serve You.
And because we serve and trust You Lord, we have a blessed assurance
that You are our refuge and our fortress, the one true living God in whom we trust!
Dear Heavenly Father, we thank You for one more opportunity to
unite in prayer and supplication before You.
We come to You heavenly father with thanks giving in our hearts knowing
that You and only You are able to supply our every need; to equip us to run
this race, to defeat everything that comes up against us, everything that is
not like You.
Even as the
disciples prayed, we pray also, "Sovereign Lord," "You made the heaven and the earth and
the sea, and everything in them.” “Lord God, we
ask that You stretch out Your hand to heal and perform miraculous signs and wonders through the name of Your holy servant Jesus."
And being let go, they went to their own company, and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said unto them. And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is: Who by the mouth of thy servant David hast said, Why did the heathen rage, and the people imagine vain things? The kings of the earth stood up, and the rulers were gathered together against the Lord, and against his Christ. For of a truth against thy holy child Jesus, whom thou hast anointed, both Herod, and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles, and the people of Israel, were gathered together, For to do whatsoever thy hand and thy counsel determined before to be done. And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus. And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness. Acts 4:23-31

Even so, Lord,
that the doubting and unbelievers know that our faith, and theirs too, should not
rest on men's wisdom, but on Your power.
That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 1 Corinthians 2:5
. . . that their faith and hope might be in You God:
Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God. 1 Peter 1:21
That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 1 Corinthians 2:5

Dear God, we thank You for great and
everlasting faithfulness! We thank You
for Your goodness and for Your mercy. We
know that when we walk in obedience according to Your word that You will supply
every need we have according
to Your riches in glory.
Lord we know that
some of our trials of sickness come on us as a testing of our faith and that
when we put our trust and faith in You and deliverance comes there may be found
of us unto praise and honour and glory
unto You.
That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 1 Peter 1:7

Lord
we know faith is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not seen. Through faith we understand
that the worlds were framed by Your word, so that things which are seen were
not made of things which do appear.
Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1

Lord, we know that we are victorious
in You. We are armed with the shield of
faith; trusting in You for the healing that thru the blood of Jesus Christ is
possible. By Jesus' stripes we are
healed. Heavenly Father, we thank You
Lord for the blood of Jesus; for the power of the blood of Jesus. Because of the blood, we can receive healing,
sinners can be saved, delivery from mental depression and oppression is
possible, yokes are broken, my God, hallelujah, demons have to flee at the
precious name of Jesus. Oh my God, thank
You for Jesus and the power through Him to work signs and miracles in His
name!
We thank You Lord for Jesus, who is
the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him
endured the cross, despising the shame . . .for us. Hallelujah!
Thank You for the love that You bestowed upon us, the love that sent Your
son, Jesus Christ, to die for us that we may live and have life more abundantly
through You.
Lord, You said that we only have to
believe on You and the works that You did, You said we shall do them also and
even greater works (more) than those! This is a
prayer for belief in You. Decrease our
unbelief; put our total confidence and dependence on You; knowing that You and You alone are
able!
Lord, You said if we have faith the
size of a mustard seed; that if we believe in You . . .
. . . that signs will follow us . . . In Your name we shall cast out devils . . . we shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. (Mark 16:17-18)
. . . that signs will follow us . . . In Your name we shall cast out devils . . . we shall lay hands on the sick and they shall recover. (Mark 16:17-18)
Lord let Your
will be done on earth as it is in Heaven; according to Your will for You are
sovereign. You have power and dominion
over all; power belongs to You and is subject to Your will.
And because we
love You, we trust You for who You are, Lord, we come boldly unto
the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time
of need.
For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. (Hebrews 4:15-16)

We know that
we can’t do anything without You; that we operate only through You.
In all of our ways, You said Lord, that we are to acknowledge You;
that You will direct our path.
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5)
Lead us and guide us today; allow us to be Your ambassadors, remembering at all times that we are walking in the holy spirit with the anointing that You, the sovereign one, the King of kings and Lord of Lords have placed within us.

Even as Paul prayed, Lord, we are praying that You stir up the
gifts within us; we need to see Your glory manifested; Your dunamis power revealed to a sin sick world that they
may believe that it is You and only You in Your awesomeness that is able to
heal, to destroy the yoke, to cast out demons, to provide real comfort, blessed
assurance and peace - to be unleashed from bondage and free to serve you without restraint!
Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, we plead the blood against everything that is not like You. We ask that You command Your angels to guard us in all our ways; in our comings and in our goings; to protect us from all hurt, harm and danger of those things seen and unseen.

Remember all of those who are suffering both physically and
mentally. We pray, oh Lord God that You
bring peace and deliverance to those that are troubled, that You bring comfort
to those in sorrow, healing to those who are sick. We are looking to You for divine healing; healing of the body, of the mind and
of the spirit. We look to You Lord for
great and mighty accomplishments. We
pray in the precious name of Jesus that You bind everything that is not like You.
Lord You’ve given us everything in Your
word to keep us and sustain us, You’ve given us Your precious gift of Your holy
spirit and You said If we delight ourselves in You that You will give us the
desires of our heart, You said if we commit our ways unto
You and trust You that You will bring it to pass. Because You said it in Your word,
Lord, because of our trust and faith in You, we believe it.
Lord we acknowledge that we just
can’t do without You, we can’t win without You, we need Your power and Your
strength. We realize that it is no
goodness of our own but You Lord, in Your sovereignty, that keeps us and allows
You to accomplish Your will in our lives.
And now, Lord we pray that You be with us,
that You lead us and guide us, give us wisdom and knowledge to speak and act
according to Your will; that we may be laborers in Your field; that Your manifested
glory be revealed through us dear God.
We ask all these things and we thank You for
all things, in Jesus’
wonderful name we pray, amen!
So, today, I
admonish each of You to keep an atmosphere of faith by looking to God's Word as your guide.
· * Praise
God for Your healing and those that You are praying for also.
· * Keep
in contact with Your Healer, God, through Your continued prayers.
· * Testify
about Your healing to others, giving glory to God.
· * Resist
the attacks of Satan with the "Rhema" Word of God by quoting specific verses about healing.
· * Don’t
waver in Your belief, as a man who wavers will not receive from God.
But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. (James 1:6-8).

* And finally, contend (wrestle) earnestly in the faith for Your deliverance.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.(Romans 10:9)
* And finally, contend (wrestle) earnestly in the faith for Your deliverance.
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.(Romans 10:9)
Let me leave this final scripture with You:
But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. Romans 10:8-13
Thank God for the prayer today;
hopefully something was said that will bless us and keep us today that our
minds will be in perfect peace with the Lord!
God bless . . .
