Agreement in Prayer

In Matthew 18:18-19 Jesus says, "'Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on earth shall have been bound in heaven; and whatever you loose on earth shall have been loosed in heaven. 19 Again I say to you, that if two of you agree on earth about anything that they may ask, it shall be done for them by My Father who is in heaven. 20 For where two or three have gathered together in My name, I am there in their midst.'"  We invite you to regularly agree with us in prayer so that our prayers are more effective. The reality is that when you read our prayers here and pray with us at home on your own, you are agreeing with us in prayer. However, if you post your prayer on our site, other people can agree with you in prayer, and in that way, we can gather together online. Thanks ahead of time for your prayers.

Daily Prayer, Tuesday, January 31, 2006

Father, thank you for your family around the world. It's easy for us to become complacent about our faith in America where anything goes regarding religion. But people in other places must rely on their faith daily just to get by. Father, we want that reliance in our lives. The reality is that you are bigger than circumstance. Whether in America or India, we all need to be wholly dependent on you. Lord, we are pressing in to you. We're on our knees, waiting for more of your glory. We're already overwhelmed by who you are, and yet we want more, Jesus. You're so refreshing. You give us life, and a life more abundant if we only seek you always. Praise you, Jesus. We worship you. Thank you, Father.

Pastor Krupa Kiran of India. Pastor Kiran recently sent me an email, telling me about his church. Ask that the Lord would bless his church as he remains faithful to God's call to share the gospel in his impoverished area. Many of the people that he is witnessing to are involved in idol worship and other lies from Satan. Ask that the Holy Spirit would go before him as he ministers to the villages in his area.

Daily Prayer, Monday, January 30, 2006

Hallelujah! Lord, we thank you and praise you for another week. Help us to start it off strong with a positive attitude that other people will recognize as something that only you can really generate. As we move through the week, keep our minds focused on you, and keep us working diligently in your name. As we finish the week, we will continue to thank you for your blessings that are new every morning. Lord, we are so in love with you.

Having fun with God. When we have a personal relationship with God, our perception of who God is naturally changes. The world would have us believe that God is some huge, power-obsessed being in a far off place, ready to strike us down if we do wrong. NO! When we accept Jesus' free gift of salvation, we become children of God- God's friends! God loves us more than we'll ever know, and wants to share his joy with us. So, have fun with God! Smile at Him when you're happy. It's okay to laugh when God just gets you with His blessings. God loves to see His children being happy.

Daily Prayer, Saturday, January 28, 2006

Lord, it's so nice to just close our eyes, to smile and breathe in your goodness. Your peace is endless when we listen to you and keep our lives in the way that your word teaches. That's why we're here, God. We want to continually wash ourselves in your presence and word. Like the lepers in the bible who would go into a pool to cleanse themselves miraculously of their affliction - God we come to cleanse ourselves of our sin, of our fleshly tendencies that afflict our spirits. Cleanse us. We want to soak you in and let all of the things of this world melt away from us. We love you, Jesus.

Thanking God for His Holy Spirit. This is part of God's three faceted person that is very neglected in some churches and denominations. This is the part of God that lives in you when you become a Christian. Ask for His Holy Spirit to fill you to overflowing. Fall passionately in love with Jesus, and know that His Spirit lives within you. Know that you are never alone because you have God inside you!

Daily Prayer, Friday, January 27, 2006

Lord, you are so mighty. We thank you that we don't have to fear a single thing in this world. You are in control. You have a plan. And best of all, you love us and want to spend eternity with us. Everything on this world that we care about could fall apart, and it would be hard, but we know we could get through it with your help. Not only could we get through it, but we could come out on the other side a better person, closer to you. Thank you for that security and freedom, Father. We love you.

Daily Prayer, Thursday, January 26, 2006

Lord, we thank you and praise you for our lives. You give us a reason to live! To us, the great question in life isn't, "What is its purpose?" It is, "What can we do for you now, God?" There is such freedom in knowing why we were created. You have given us that freedom in life by dying for our sins, Jesus. Oh thank you, thank you, thank you! We love you so much, Jesus. You are so lovely. We worship you, Jesus.

Daily Prayer, Wednesday, January 25, 2006

Help us not to think so much, God. That sounds funny, but our minds get us into so much trouble. Renew our minds so that they are more like your mind. Remove those thought patterns that get us into trouble again and again. As we come to you daily, continue to mold our hearts and minds into your image. Feed our minds with your goodness, and kill off the worldly ideas that we have allowed ourselves to be exposed to. Make our minds more loving, less critical, more peaceful, less reactionary, more of you, and less of us. You are our hero, God. We want to be just like you. We love you, Lord. You are so wonderful, Jesus. We love you.


Please join Given Life in praying for:

People, both believers and non-believers, who are in the grip of sexual immorality, including premarital sex, adultery, pornography, homosexuality, and just plain old lust. Pray that the Lord would bring conviction of their sin, brokenness of their hearts to show them that they need God, followed by repentance. Pray for these people with love and compassion. These are people who God loves as much as He loves you and me. Ask that God would give these people the courage to confess their sin to the people who they have hurt. Pray for healing, and pray for new and renewed relationships with Jesus. Lastly, praise God for what He can do in people's hearts! Our God is truly amazing!

Holy Spirit, make us sensitive. The world makes us callous toward other people, and even toward you. We want to have your sensitivity, to know when people are hurting, and to have a deep love for all people. It's so easy for us to shut ourselves into our own little space in this world. Give us the courage to step out and spread your message and your love. You are too wonderful to keep to ourselves. We love you.
