GRACE FOR PURPOSE PRAYERS: As the Lord looks from the Heavens above and His eyes fall on you, have you ever thought what does He see or rather who does He see on the throne of your heart? Who are you placing first in your life with your actions? Isaiah 26 chapter 9 says, My soul yearns for You in the night, in the morning, my spirit longs for You. Does your soul yearn for God in the night? Does your Spirit long for the Lord in the morning? The Bible says, Many are called but few are chosen. But what is it that separates the many from the few, because it's only when your heart is truly given to God that you can obey the greatest commandment given to us in Matthew 22 verse 37, "Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind."
So allow me to encourage you man of God, allow me to uplift you woman of God, may we be part of the chosen few who decide that no one else will have the throne to their heart other than the risen King who is Jesus Christ. May we not grow weary of well doing, and above all may you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and mind.
So as you end your day take a moment and repeat this prayer after me. Let us pray, Heavenly Father, I thank you for protecting me today, I thank you for seeing me through this day. It's only through Your Grace and Mercy that I am healthy. It's only through Your loving kindness that I have life in my body. I want to take this time to say thank you Lord Jesus. Of all the things happening in the world right now thank You for keeping me and watching over me as I end my day and prepare to go to sleep.
King Jesus, I invite you into my home, I invite You into my room. Send Your Angels to watch over me. May the Holy Spirit be with me so that I may dream heavenly dreams. Your word in Proverbs 3 chapter 24, tells me that when I lie down, I will not be afraid, when I lie down my sleep will be sweet. I thank You for Your Word because I know that you are a gracious God, a God who watches over me at night as well as during the day.
So, I asked this evening tonight may Your eyes look upon me and my family. May your hand be over us and covering us. I declare Your Word, in Psalm 4 verse 8 to be true to me. In peace I will both lie down and sleep for You alone O Lord make me dwell in safety. I dwell in safety, I sleep in safety, because I am covered by the blood of Jesus Christ. No weapon formed against me or my family will prosper. I will sleep in Divine peace because of you Lord. When I sleep I will not be terrified by any uneasy imaginations. I will not be kept awake by anxious cares and distressing dreams. Instead I cast all of my burdens onto You, take every single one of my worries.
Through Your Word in Matthew 11 verse 28, You have given me a special invitation. You have told me to come to You when I labor and when I'm heavy laden, and You will give me rest. In You alone, I will find rest for my soul. In You alone my yoke is made easy and my burden is made light. My father in heaven, Elohim the living God, You are he who neither sleeps nor slumbers. You are the "Great I am" and I confess You to be everything that I want and need tonight.
When it comes to protection, I am protected by you Lord Jesus. If it's strength that I need I am strong in You. If it's healing I can find healing in You. When it comes to provision I look to you Jehovah Jireh my provider. Even for comfort for my troubled heart I am made whole in You. God you are my shield and my strength. I speak the blood of Jesus to surround my home just as it saved the children of Israel in exodus 12. May the blood of Jesus Christ serve as a symbol to the enemy that he cannot come near me or my home. May the blood of Jesus form a perimeter around me so that no evil no attack from the devil will cross that line, remember me lord remember my family.
Father, just as you told the Israelite's in Exodus 12 and said when I see the Blood I will pass over you and will not harm you. Father, today in this present day as Your child I seek to be hidden and protected by your precious blood. Thank you lord for hearing this prayer, in the precious name of Jesus Christ I pray, amen.
