“Pray without ceasing” (I Thessalonians 5:17, King James Version [Comfort against persecution]).
Greetings In The Holy Name Of Jesus,
Let us pray:
Father, bless your Holy Name in the Name of Jesus.
I come before you not to ask for the things that sustain my flesh for you know what I need.
I come before you in the sincerity of my heart to heal us, to save us in a world that needs you.
Yes, Lord, I pray for a world that needs you.
Yes, Lord, I pray for your family.
Yes, Lord, I pray for your children.
Yes, Lord, I pray for the women.
Yes, Lord, I pray for your adopted children that you gave to Jesus, the Branch.
I pray because the blood runs red in the streets of Gaza (Palestine) Esau's children.
I pray because the blood of Israel (Jacob) is spilled on the streets of Gaza (Palestine) defending themselves against Esau's children.
I pray for the peace of Jacob and Esau in this day and for evermore.
I pray because your adopted children have lost their way and practice not what Jesus' preached and taught on Mount Sinai to love you God the first of Jesus' greatest commandments and to love thy neighbor as thyself the second of Jesus' greatest commandments.
I pray because the people of the world do not turn the other cheek and give their coat to those who seek to kill them and to those who seek to steal from them.
I pray because the people in the world do not wait for the seventh year believing you will restore to them all that was lost and all that was stolen.
I pray for the ones you gave Christ Jesus the adopted children and I pray for the people of the world who feel left out, left back, left behind and utter the words, What about me!” sometimes crying and screaming in the night as they sleep incapable of peaceful rest.
I pray for their deliverance out of the torment that persecutes them in their rest and the torment that tries to steal them away; render the demons powerless to influence, convince, persuade in any way for they are the masters of darkness, delusions and the illusions that create false images in the world.
LORD be our guiding light as we stand for truth in a world of unrest.
Father, send your holy angels like a thief in the night to join us on the battlefields of faith for there are many battlefields in today's world, Lord. Let your Angels fight the battles we fight in our hearts, in our minds, in our faith and in our world for the battle really is the Lord's.
We give you all the battlefields Lord to deliver us out of all of them for many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord---you promised, to deliver us out of them all. To God be the glory!
Father, love us with the love you felt when you first created Adam and bless us (Genesis 1:28, KJV [creation of man).
Father love us with the love you felt when you first created Eve out of Adam (Gen.1:28, KJV).
Father love us with the love you felt when you promised Abraham Christ Jesus (The Star of Jacob Numbers 24:17; Gen. 29:10; Matthew 2:2; Rev. 1:7 KJV) and blessed all the nations of the earth (Genesis 26:4, KJV [God blessed Abraham that his seed would bless all the nations of the earth]).
Father love us with the love you felt for Joseph for those in foreign lands and for those in bondage under masters and in the houses of their masters, bless us LORD with prosperity (Gen. 39:2, KJV [Joseph blessed to prosper in his masters house]).
Father, love us with the love you felt for King David for David said the LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer (II Samuel 22:2, KJV [Seven of Saul's sons hanged]).
I pray for the women who stand against their tide of faith each day praying for a way to stand in a world that treats them like second class citizens and in a world that does not encourage them to be true followers of Christ Jesus in a world that denies their rights in Christ Jesus in a world that does not believe in the love of God and in a world that does not believe in the faith of Christ Jesus.
Father forgive us for those we have here on earth who follow Satan, for those possessed of demon spirits, for those taught to cast a stumbling block before the children of God by getting them to eat things unclean that in their hearts they sacrificed to idols, forgive us for those who fornicate and enjoy fornication (Rev. 2:14, KJV [Message to churches in Asia]).
LORD do not let the false leaders, the false prophets have their way with your children and the people of the earth.
LORD let your anointed of Christ Jesus lead us always as David led (I Samuel 16:13, KJV).
Deliver us LORD, for our Lord Christ Jesus sits next to you and our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus asked you to take care of us and our Lord and Saviour told us to ask, seek and knock for what we want in prayer, fasting to move mountains without ceasing (St. John 17:9-11, KJV [Christ prayeth to his Father]).
LORD check all the attacks on our flesh, for the flesh is weak for Jesus said we do not live by bread alone but by every word of God so let us truly experience a leap of faith in all our intentions (St. Luke 4:4, KJV [Temptation of Christ]).
Father search the hearts of those who deny our flesh in times of hunger and thirst, let your word save us and deny all wicked intentions.
We plead the blood of the lamb.
By the faith of our Lord and Saviour Christ Jesus.
Give us the grace to live amicably together in the peace of Christ Jesus.
Give us the faith to know that Jesus is still with us although he sits next to you to prepare the new Jerusalem in the new covenant of faith and not grow weary.
I send you the love that surpasses all understanding and denies not your supreme love in the universe in this noon day prayer. Amen.
