Desired Prayer

31/8/2016

Christian Fellowship (CF) prayer and fast, 1030H - 1430H:

We gathered together to pray to Our Wonderful Mighty and Loving God for the Christian Fellowship, and our country.

We started with worship to Our Lord, followed by prayer. The Presence of the Lord was heavily upon us during worship and prayer. Truly a blessed time with Our Lord God.

I personally received so much teaching from Him when He imparted His Wisdom to me by revealing the meaning, inter-relation, and correlation of His Word for my better understanding of who He is, His Ways, and His solutions to the problems, through several passages of scriptures, as each one of us prayed and interceded for various issues.

As we were praying for the leadership team and leaders, He directed me to pray from His Word in Colossians 1:9-14.

Our Heavenly Father,

Thank You, Lord, for Your Word.

We cease not to pray and ask that we may be filled with the knowledge of Your Will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that we will walk in a manner worthy of You, Lord, to please You in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God.

We pray that we are strengthened with all power, according to Your glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness, endurance, and patience; joyously giving thanks to You, Father, who have qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Your Light. For You rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of Your beloved Son, Jesus Christ, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

Thank You, Jesus. We fully surrender and submit to Your Will. In Jesus Name, Amen.

O such Power in the Word of the Lord! As I prayed His Word, I trembled all the more in His Presence. Thank You, Lord, for being with us, strengthening and empowering us through Your Word and Holy Spirit. I am refreshed and renewed in the Lord to continue to serve Him. Thank You, Jesus. Hallelujah. All Glory to God.

When we were praying for the mission team, I prayed this prayer for the team:

Our Heavenly Father, we pray for your protection and guidance to be with the team. All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Jesus. We pray for the authority of Jesus to be upon everyone and the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ cover all of them. All will be well in the name of Jesus. We know that no weapon formed against them will prosper, for the Lord our God is Almighty and is with them wherever they go. We pray that they have their focus on You, Jesus, and press on towards Your Will, Plan, and Purpose. We pray that they trust You, Lord, no matter what the circumstances. We pray that they go boldly in Your Love to advance the Kingdom of God for Your Glory. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

This prayer session was also a great time of fellowship with one another and getting to know each other.

After the prayer session, I received a contact of a sister in Christ to care for, in a neighbouring institution, which is located opposite my workplace. Thank You, Lord, for giving me the opportunity to be used by You for Your Glory, to love and to care for Your children. I am overjoyed when this sister in Christ agrees to join the CF, and immediately I add her to our Whatsapp chat group.

I also shared with her the 3 books that I have published on Wattpad on 28/8/2016 and 29/8/2016, which I shall be updating every time the Lord imparts His inspiration and Wisdom to me.

This is so that she may understand the direction we are headed towards the Vision that God has given us, and that she may understand subsequent postings in the group chat. We had a great time of fellowship as she shared her testimony and her life journey with God.

I thank You, Lord, that I am able to be a part of the life of our sister here whom You love so dearly, to direct her towards You, to strengthen her faith, and encourage her to be the vessel to glorify You, Lord, so that many can see You, and receive Jesus as Lord and Saviour, and advance the Kingdom of God.

Thank You, Jesus, for loving us. We love You, Lord.

Hallelujah! All Glory to God!

Scripture:

Colossians 1:9-14 (NASB):

9 For this reason also, since the day we heard of it, we have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, 10 so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God; 11 strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience; joyously 12 giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified us to share in the inheritance of the saints in Light.

13 For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.
