Holy God, vindicate us! We cry out for the salvation of souls across the world. You are the God who hears our prayers and answers. Don’t delay in answering, Father. Set those free over whom we pray the power of Jesus’ blood. Let them see Him as He is. Jesus, become real to these friends,…

It’s all lies, Father! “You aren’t smart enough, tall enough, thin enough, wealthy enough, fast enough, pretty enough, holy enough and worthy enough” are all lies. Every self-help, self-worth, self-image boosting theory is a lie. Why? Because they base human value on ‘self.’ That is why ‘self’ is the prefix to their label. Oh, Lord,…

Father God, your Holy Spirit testifies within me. How can anyone say that I don’t hear your voice, feel your prompting and see you at work? You speak to my heart through the Scriptures. You prompt me to action as you work in my conscience. Your mighty works are all about me. Lord, you, Luke…

Heavenly Father, my one plea today is to continue grow a disciplined spirit that seeks you before anything else. Don’t let me ever say that my last resort is prayer, Lord.

Almighty God, you are the one true God who offers the one true hope for all nations. You are Father to the fatherless, residence to the homeless and up-lifter of the down trodden. There is no one like you. We anguish in our circumstance, striving in vain in our own strength to sustain. Give us…

Heavenly Father, we brothers and sisters in Christ are one team, with one God, one Gospel and one holy purpose. Knit our hearts together. Strengthen our resolve. Show us how to love and support one another. Show us how to bear each other’s burdens in static circumstances and in transition. Give us the greater love…

What is more than mighty, Father? You alone bear the name Almighty God. You are greater. You are above all. Show yourself faithful. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne. No one is like you. You rule the heavens and the earth. You set planets spinning and hold the universes together with your…
