Spiritual Resources

I have written special word-based prayers over the years. Below is the most circulated - Enjoy!

Daily Prayer

Heavenly Father, I thank You for this day. It is the day that You have made, therefore I will rejoice and be glad in You today. I thank You for my family. Thank You for bringing us into this day. Your perfect will shall be done in our lives today in Jesus name. We thank You for keeping us by Your word. We come under Your mercies that are new every morning, for great is Your faithfulness. We praise You for You are good and Your mercies endure forever. Thank You for being our Father. Thank You for Your Spirit on the inside of us. We are Your sons and we are led by Your Spirit. We appreciate the Godhead, enjoying the abundant life of Christ, cherishing His grace, living by His faith.

I pray for every member of the body of Christ. I pray for their family members. I pray for peace, love, and joy in their homes. I pray that those in financial debt shall be blessed. I declare that their needs are met. I ask that they put on Your whole armor and stand against the wiles of the wicked. I pray for ministers in the body. I use my pastor as a point of contact that our ministers shall fulfill the ministry upon their lives. I pray that they uphold the word and integrity in their lives. I ask that they shall stand, having done all to stand. That they shall speak Your word as Your oracles, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. I pray for the old in the body that they will enjoy the healing that Jesus purchased for them. I ask that husbands will love their wives as Christ loves the church. I pray that wives will submit to their husbands as they submit to You. I thank You for children in the body. I ask that as the Lord Jesus, they shall grow in wisdom, grace, and in stature, having favor with You and with all men. I pray that they will be taught of You and that You will keep them safe. I declare that our children are kept from the evil one in Jesus name. I pray for babes in Christ, that they shall desire the sincere milk of the word and grow thereby, becoming mature in the word, comparing spiritual with spiritual, rightly dividing the word of truth. I pray that those of us who are strong in Christ will consider the weak, bearing one another’s burden, keeping the spirit of unity in a bond of peace.

I pray for the leadership of this country and all other countries. I ask that You turn the hearts of the leaders after Your will. I pray that You surround the presidents with men and women of wisdom and integrity who will uphold justice and shun evil. I thank You that the gospel of Jesus Christ is preached freely in every part of this nation and all nations. I pray particularly for the leaders of this nation where I dwell. May they uphold the truth at all times and bring the threshing wheel over evil and evil doers. I ask that they walk in the wisdom from above, that their thrones be established in true righteousness. I pray specifically for the peace of Jerusalem, that she will prosper. I ask that her leaders will embrace Jesus the Messiah and exalt Him as Lord. I declare that Jesus is Lord all over the nations of the earth.

I pray for those who are not yet saved. I ask that You bring the appropriate minister of the new testament, a faithful witness of the gospel of Christ to each unsaved soul regardless of age, sex, and nationality. I ask that the barriers created by the Devil be removed, that there will be no miscommunication in the hearts of these potential believers of Your love and purpose. I pray that the light of the gospel of Christ will shine in their hearts that they will understand the good news. Thank You for souls that will become saved today. I rejoice with the angels in heaven over these souls. I ask that these souls once saved will find a word-obeying church and grow spiritually.

According to Your word, I declare that everyone in my household, both nuclear and extended, shall be saved. My household and I are blessed at home and in the field. We are blessed in our going out and in our coming in. We are the redeemed of the Lord. No weapon fashioned against us will prosper. No evil shall befall us. No plague shall come near our dwelling place. Whatsoever we lay our hands upon shall prosper in Jesus name. Your word prospers concerning us. We flourish like the cedars of Lebanon. Greater are You on the inside of us than the one in the world. You surround us with Your favor as a shield. You lift up Your loving countenance upon us and give us peace. You anoint us with Your oil of gladness above our fellows. You perfect what You have begun in our lives. Like the tree planted by the rivers of water, we bear forth our fruit in our season, and our leaves do not dry up in Jesus name. We are safe from all danger and harm. Having done all to stand we stand therefore putting on the whole armor of God, rooted and grounded in godly love, being steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that our labor in Him is not in vain.

Father, help me go through this day with a godly attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each moment, thinking on Your word. Keep me strong in faith that I may help the weak. Help me to be wise as a serpent and to be gentle as a dove.

I declare that Your Spirit leads me today by Your word. I thank You that I am in perfect peace because my mind is stayed on You. Thank You for blessing me that I have, enjoy and continue to be a blessing to others. I profess that I am strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. I am strong in the word. I am strong in faith. I am God’s righteousness in Christ Jesus and I am blessed. I enjoy His grace, I live by His faith, and I walk in His love. I walk in the wisdom from above. I pay the debt of agape love to everyone today. I continue in agape love, casting down imaginations not of God and professing the love of Christ to everyone. I am a king and a priest unto God, my heavenly Father. I fulfill my calling and ministry, being led by the Holy Spirit, declaring the gospel of Christ boldly, instant, in and out of season.

Satan, you are bound regarding the body of Christ. You are powerless over my church and everyone in position of leadership in Jesus name. You are bound over the leaders of this nation and all other nations in the name of Jesus. I bind you over Jerusalem and her leaders. Satan, you are bound over every soul that has the opportunity to become saved. Your power over their lives is broken in Jesus name. I bind you over my life and all my household members in the name of Jesus. Take your hands off everyone and everything that belongs to me. Take your hands off our blessings. We resist you in Jesus name. We give you no room in our lives in the name of Jesus. I take back everything you’ve stolen from me. I speak life into every dead situation in my life. I do not allow you to steal from me anymore. I cast you out of my life in Jesus name. You are under my feet. We triumph over you and yours in Christ Jesus. Jesus is Lord over our lives. My blessings flow continually. They are not blocked or hindered in Jesus name. We fulfill the number of our days. Our needs are met according to God’s riches in glory in Christ Jesus. We prosper as our soul prospers. We stand having done all to stand putting on the whole armor of God, walking in victory daily, in the matchless name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Thank You Lord for being my Father, I rest in You, I rest in Your word, I rest in Your love in Jesus name. Amen.

The grace, the anointing, the ordination
