00:31 Today we're praying for strength.
00:33 In his second letter to the Thessalonians, 00:36 Paul exhorts us, 00:37 "Brothers and sisters, pray for us 00:39 that the message of the Lord 00:40 may spread rapidly and be honored 00:42 just as it was with you. 00:44 And pray that we may be delivered 00:46 from wicked and evil people, 00:48 for not everyone has faith, 00:50 but the Lord is faithful 00:51 and He will strengthen you and protect you 00:53 from the evil one." 00:56 Other scriptures about our strength in God 00:58 are 1 Corinthians 16:13, 01:01 "Be on your guard. 01:02 Stand firm in the faith, be courageous, be strong." 01:06 In 1 Timothy 1:7, 01:08 "For God is not given us a spirit of fear, 01:10 but a spirit of power of love and a sound mind." 01:14 And Philippians 4:13 says, 01:17 "I can do all things through Christ 01:18 who gives me strength." 01:20 Finally, Psalm 28:7, 01:23 "The Lord is my strength and my shield, 01:25 my heart trusts in him and he helps me. 01:28 My heart leaps for joy and with my song, I praise Him. 01:32 The Lord is my strength and my shield." 01:34 When I think of strength, 01:36 I think of the mighty power of my heavenly Father. 01:39 And I sing this song. 01:46 I sing the mighty power of God 01:50 That made the mountains rise 01:54 That spread The flowing seas abroad 01:58 And built the lofty skies 02:01 I sing the wisdom that ordained 02:05 The sun to rule the day 02:09 The moon shines full at His command 02:14 And all the stars obey 02:21 Lord, I praise You for Your faithfulness. 02:23 Help me be strong 02:24 and protect me from the evil one. 02:27 I am grateful that 02:28 You've given me not a spirit of fear, 02:30 but a power and love and a sound mind. 02:33 Help me to stand firm in the faith 02:35 and be courageous and strong. 02:38 And help me remember 02:40 that I can do all things through You 02:41 who gives me strength. 02:43 My Father in heaven, holy is Your name. 02:46 May Your kingdom come and Your will be done. 02:50 Please give me what I need today 02:51 my daily bread 02:52 and forgive me 02:54 just as I forgive those around me. 02:56 Don't allow me to fall into temptation, 02:58 but protect me from evil, 03:00 for the kingdom and the power 03:01 and the glory are Yours forever and ever. 03:04 Amen. 03:10 Dear heavenly Father, 03:12 an angel of the Book of Revelation 03:15 called You a lion. 03:16 But John the Revelator saw you as a lamb. 03:20 This is so amazing. 03:22 You being a lion gained the victory as a lamb. 03:27 It is hard for us to understand that our power is in weakness 03:33 because when we recognize that we are weak 03:36 and invite You to dwell in us 03:39 and to completely fill us with your Holy Spirit, 03:42 then through this faith of ours, 03:45 Your righteousness starts indwelling in us 03:49 and Your power acts in us from inside out. 03:55 Please help us 03:56 not to be prideful of our capabilities 03:59 and achievements, 04:01 but take all our pride in You as You use us 04:06 so that Your will in this world is fulfilled, 04:10 in Your precious name we pray. 04:12 Amen. 04:19 Our Father and our God, we thank You 04:21 for Your amazing love towards us 04:23 during this time 04:25 of this COVID-19 pandemic globally. 04:28 We thank You for giving us the strength 04:30 to persevere during these times. 04:33 We ask that You continue to show us with Your strength 04:37 and Your love that we may share and encourage others 04:40 to be strong in this time of need. 04:43 Amen. 04:48 I sing the goodness of the Lord 04:53 Who filled the earth with food 04:57 He formed the creatures With His word 05:00 And then pronounce them good 05:04 Lord how thy wonders Are displayed 05:08 Wherever I turn my eyes 05:12 If I survey the ground I tread 05:17 Or gaze up on the sky 05:25 Father God, I bow before You now, 05:27 asking for a renewed strength. 05:30 God, I seek Your Spirit to come and overwhelm me Lord 05:35 with strength and ability. 05:38 Lord, help me to not be fearful of the things 05:41 that are taking place around me, 05:42 Lord, but to call upon Your name. 05:45 Lord, to rise up with Your strength, 05:47 to seek You and to know You more, Lord. 05:51 With so much uncertainty in the world, God, 05:53 I praise You 05:54 that You give us the strength that we need 05:57 to face it today and every day as we go forward. 06:01 Help us to cling to You, I pray in Jesus' name. 06:04 Amen. 06:10 Our loving heavenly Father, 06:11 thank You for Your blessings of strength. 06:14 Now we know that 06:15 we don't have strength in ourselves, 06:17 we have strength in You. 06:19 And so, Lord, we are asking at this particular moment 06:22 to give us strength. 06:24 We ask for strength in handling any of the challenges 06:27 and stress in our lives. 06:29 Strength for things 06:30 that we know that we will be facing 06:33 and strength to stay on track 06:35 with everything that you want us to do, Lord. 06:38 We need strength in so many different ways 06:40 and we are so happy that we can come to you 06:43 and ask you for strength. 06:45 And we do that, Lord. 06:46 Please give us strength now and always 06:49 in everything that You bless us with, 06:51 we ask in Jesus' name. 06:53 Amen. 06:59 Dear heavenly Father, 07:01 I reach out to You for strength and guidance. 07:04 Please show me which way to turn. 07:07 Calm my anxious thoughts. 07:09 Come speak into my mind, 07:11 strengthen me as I falter and feel weary. 07:14 I trust that You are with me no matter where I am. 07:18 Lord, help me to draw strength 07:20 through Your unchanging love and grace. 07:22 Renew in me a clean heart so that I can serve You. 07:27 Guide my actions and thoughts so that I do not falter, 07:31 for I can do all things through Christ, 07:33 which strengthens me. 07:35 Thank you for hearing my prayer in Jesus' name I pray. 07:39 Amen. 07:44 There's not a plant Or flower below 07:49 But makes Thy glories known 07:53 And clouds arise And tempest blow 07:57 By order from Thy throne 08:01 Creatures That borrow life from Thee 08:05 Are subject to Thy care 08:10 There's not a place Where we can flee 08:15 But you are present there 08:22 Father, it is in Your strength. 08:24 And knowing that You are always there, 08:28 that I rejoice 08:30 and that I know I am strong 08:32 because You are strong in me. 08:35 Isaiah 41:10 says, 08:37 "Fear not, for I am with you. 08:40 Be not dismayed, for I am your God. 08:44 I will strengthen you. I will help you. 08:47 I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." 08:50 Father, I thank You that You are my strength. 08:55 1 Chronicle 16:11 says, 08:57 "Seek the Lord and His strength, 09:00 seek His presence continually." 09:02 Lord, may I never forget 09:07 that You are my strength 09:09 and that I can't do anything without You, Lord. 09:14 Exodus 15:2 says, 09:16 "The Lord is my strength and my song. 09:19 He has become my salvation. 09:22 This is my God, and I will praise Him. 09:24 My father's God, and I will exalt Him. 09:27 Lord, I thank You that 09:28 strength is connected with singing in this verse. 09:32 I thank You that because of Your strength, 09:36 I can sing when others are weak. 09:41 I rely on Your strength to sing into their life 09:44 and to be a source of encouragement 09:48 and strength to them 09:50 through my song and through my testimony 09:52 of how You have been strong in my life. 09:55 Thank You, Father. 09:57 And I love Philippians 4:13 that says, 10:00 "I can do all things 10:02 through Him who strengthens me." 10:05 Father, I thank You for such strength. 10:11 Lord, I lift up those who are watching, 10:15 who may be needing a special touch 10:20 and they're crying out to You in their time of need. 10:29 They've lost a job 10:30 or they're seeking for a new job. 10:33 Their finances are in shambles. 10:38 Lord, I pray that 10:39 You would speak healing to their situation, 10:44 that You would open doors of opportunity and for jobs. 10:47 This one says, 10:48 "I would like to ask for prayers to find a job. 10:52 May the Lord help me 10:54 to be as productive as possible?" 10:58 God, we thank You for the purpose 11:01 that we find in our jobs 11:03 and the opportunities 11:05 that our jobs enable us to witness to others. 11:10 So I do ask 11:12 God that You would meet the great cry 11:15 that is going out all over this world 11:18 for job opportunities 11:22 and to meet the needs of financial woes in our lives. 11:29 Lord, we thank You for Your provision, dear God. 11:35 And one writes in, saying, 11:36 "I'm losing weight and exercising regularly. 11:39 I don't drink or smoke. 11:41 Lately, I've noticed that 11:42 my blood pressure is dangerously high. 11:45 I'm taking medication. 11:47 Please pray that the right solution is found 11:50 or for complete healing." 11:54 God, I pray for the many 11:56 who are facing high blood pressure, 12:01 who are trying to manage it by their diet and good habits. 12:08 Lord, again, You are our strength. 12:10 You are our healer. 12:12 And I just ask in Jesus' name 12:14 that You would reach down and touch this viewer 12:17 and the many like them 12:19 that are in need of a healing touch from You. 12:22 Father, if it be blood pressure related or blood sugar related 12:27 or just issues with bodily functions 12:32 or organs that need healing touch from you. 12:36 Dear God, I ask in Jesus' name 12:38 that You would prove Your healing power, 12:43 that we might have a greater testimony 12:48 to share with those 12:50 who are doubting Your faithfulness, 12:52 who are doubting Your ability, be our healer, oh, God. 13:00 Thank You, Father, for Your healing touch, 13:04 for Your strength. 13:06 We love You, God. We praise Your name. 13:08 We are truly grateful to be Your children. 13:12 I thank You for Isaiah 40:28-31. 13:15 "Have you not known? Have you not heard? 13:17 The Lord is the everlasting God, 13:19 the creators of the end of the earth. 13:21 He does not faint or grow weary. 13:24 His understanding is unsearchable. 13:26 He gives power to the faint 13:28 and to him who has no might, He increases strength. 13:32 Even youths shall faint and be weary. 13:35 And young men shall fall exhausted, 13:39 but they who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. 13:43 They shall mount up with wings like eagles. 13:45 They shall run and not be weary. 13:47 They shall walk and not faint." 13:51 Please send us your prayer request 13:54 or become a part of our prayer warrior team. 13:56 For more information, please visit 3abn.tv/prayer 14:00 or call for prayer at (618) 627-4651, extension 1. 14:06 And thank you for being a part of the worldwide 3ABN family. |
