Psalm 33:1
.
For Jeff Lawrence, worship pastor for First Baptist Concord, in Farragut TN
First Baptist website
.
Jeff, as I pray for you, I get the word "feast". As I press into that, I feel that we as God's people often settle for fast food with the Lord, when He is calling us to a banquet. So I pray Father, that Jeff will help prepare the people of Concord Baptist for a feast. A feast where Your grace and mercy abound, and Your banner over them is love. I pray that Your Holy Spirit will equip Jeff to not only facilitate such a great feast, but partake in the fullness of God's offering. Send a fresh wind of Your Spirit to Concord Baptist and may Jeff recognize Your moving, and lead Your people into Your presence.

For Melody Wallace, music director for Sacred Heart Church, Fairfield, Ohio


Father, I thank You that You have richly blessed Melody with musical talent that she is pouring back into Your Kingdom. Lord may every breath You give her return as a praise to You. Speak to her Father, through Your Spirit in her quiet times, and put a new song her mouth each day. Even as You bless her, may she decrease so that You may increase. May her days be filled with grace and favor, and may all of her needs be met in You.

Galatians 3:29
.
For Carter Cross, youth worship leader for Cokesbury United Methodist Church in Knoxville TN
.
Carter, as I pray for you I got an image of a super ball bouncing wildly around, then it was joined by many others. It seemed to represent the chaos that is youth ministry. That these young people are coming from all different directions, bouncing off of each other and rarely being able to go deeper because chaos is comfortable. In chaos, you don't have to be real. So Carter, I pray for you now:
Father God, allow Carter to be centered in You. May his consistent walk with You cause some of the bedlam to be reside. May he take these young people deeper with each other, and deeper with You.
May the power of Your Holy Spirit draw them closer to You and may Carter help usher them into Your presence. Give him peace even in his own chaos, that he may teach a generation how to seek Your face.

March 28 ( 3 : 28 )

Then Nebuchadnezzar said, "Praise be to the God of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, who has sent his angel and rescued his servants! They trusted in him and defied the king's command and were willing to give up their lives rather than serve or worship any god except their own God.

Daniel 3:28

For Sebastian Ryan, worship leader in Littleton Colorado

.

Sebastian, as I pray this scripture over you, it is not hard to see how anyone in this world is faced with opportunities to deny God to seek fame, glory, or spare their own lives. So I pray, Lord, there are so many idols in this society that are so blatantly obvious, but I pray that You give Sebastian wisdom to see the areas of his life where he may have settled for "good" when You intended the "best" for him all along. Father, if he has chosen safety over trusting You, I pray You continue to bless him in all that he does, and give him second chances to run hard for the prize that You have called him, and if he is today facing a dilemna or crisis of faith even, that You will send Your Spirit down to give him peace in his decisions, even if those decisions are not considered safe. For You are not a safe God, but You are always good!

Scott, I have never met you, but I have been in your church many times. I sense a place where God's presence is welcomed and it lingers far beyond Sunday mornings. I pray Scott that not only will you will find times of quiet to be with the Lord, but that even in the busyness and chaos of everyday life, that He will be your hiding place. I pray that He will surround with songs of deliverance and even speak new songs to your heart that you can surround your congregation with. I pray that you will run to that hiding place in times of trouble and in times of success so he will protect you from both danger and from pride. Grace and peace to you Scott.

Jacob, as I pray for you, I keep getting the word "transition". Since I don't know what is going on over at Fellowship, I'm not sure how this applies, whether something new is starting, or new worship team members, but I am going to pray into this.

Father God, You know what transitions are in store for Jacob, and I pray You grant him the wisdom and knowledge to move through this time. As I pray Father, I sense that You are calling Jacob to transition from being just a worship leader, to being a prophetic voice for the people of Fellowship. I pray Lord that Your Holy Spirit speak through Jacob in ways and methods that may be new to him, but with such peace and confidence that only You can provide. Prepare his heart for this transition as the enemy would like nothing better than to keep this front line warrior distracted from his calling. May his ears be open to Your promptings, and may he step in confidence in this new role you are calling him to.

Travis, as I pray this scripture over you, the word that really jumped out was "seeks". So I pray, Father God, let Travis be one who seeks You not just in his quiet times, but in the busyness of life as well. May He seek You in the faces of those around him, both familiar and those of strangers. Father, make Yourself known to Travis through Your goodness and mercy, for that is what he puts his hope in. As he seeks You, Father, reveal to him new facets of Your unending love, that he may the pour out on to the people of Springs Calvary.
Seek Travis, and find!

Joel, as I pray for you and Lifepath Church, I get a sense of comfort. A sense that you have created an atmosphere where people can feel at home in the presence of God. This is a good thing. But never get complacent about the privilege of entering the Holy of Holies. Father, I thank You for the Joel and his desire to bring the spiritual orphans into a family. I pray that as he pours himself out to nurture them, that he is refilled by Your Holy Spirit with a fresh wind and living waters. May the flow freely through him. May the distractions that want to make him question his purpose or even doubt his effectiveness be thwarted at every turn. May he see fruits of the Holy Spirit's moving through his obedience. May Your perfect work be completed in him as You have promised.

Joe, one of my most distinct memories of you is when you were leading worship back at the high school and you were watching your daughter dance in front of you.

Anne, I thank the Lord for the sweet spirit of worship you bring to Two Rivers. I pray that in all is required to just be a mom, you will feel consumed not by busyness, or complications, but by the Lord's great love. May the time you pour into our congregation be returned to you and your family tenfold. Anne, as I pray for you I get the word "Concentration". I know for myself that I always find that one chore always begets another and soon find myself unable to remember what my original intention was. I pray for you, that you will be able to always remember your first love in worship, that logistics, opinions, and various other distractions will never keep you from your ardent worship of our Lord Jesus Christ. May this week be especially fruitful and may you grow even deeper in love with Jesus.

Brent's Blog

Brent, as I pray for you, I sense you are not one who seeks glory, but wants to see the Lord glorified in any success you have, so I feel this is a great scripture for you. I pray that your compassion for those around you who are poor in spirit will grow exponentially. Resist any urge you have to judge those who disagree with you in spiritual matters, but see it as an opportunity to grow in compassion, and plant a seed in them of Christ's unconditional love. That while we were still sinners, He died for us. I sense you are always seeking new ways to reach people, whether it be Facebook or Twitter. May God create for you a realm of influence with people who would not darken the door of a church at this time. Relationship is the key. Do not back down from your values, instead remain strong and build a mutual respect that will allow you to speak Christ's love into their hearts. I feel the Holy Spirit is going to use you to, while not necessarily to get people profess faith in Christ, but open their hearts a little to allow the next saint access.

Amy, as I pray for you I get the words, "going deeper". I asked the Lord if this is for your music ministry or your high school ministry and both is what I hear. So I pray:

Lord Jesus, I pray for Amy as You call her to go deeper. The youth under her care are so used to being underestimated in their spiritual potential. they have been thirsting for someone to expect more, someone to take them deeper. Give Amy the wisdom to know the moment, let Your Holy Spirit speak to her the words that will cut through the noise of their disconnected word. Lord, allow her worship to penetrate the hearts of the people of New Day Christian, allowing Your Spirit to draw them closer to You in ways they had not expected. Speak to Amy, tell her that You love that she is laying her life down for You. Though it is not what she seeks, give her honor and praise among the people of the earth.

For Andre Paular worship leader/songwriter from Sacramento, CA

Andre, although you are young, the Lord has great plans for you now. Do not let any man despise your youth, but be an example to all believers. The Sovereign Lord is indeed your strength and He wants to give you the feet of a deer because He has high treacherous places He wants you to go. Walk boldly and with confidence even though the world would tell you to be cautious. I say that when someone tells you to back off your passion for serving the Lord, that is the very moment you need to press in with all you've got. I am excited for you, for the Lord sees your preparation, and will give you a desire for the nations, and then will give you the desire of your heart. Press in. Don't back down! The Lord is your Light and your Salvation, whom shall you fear?

Sue, as I prayed for you I got the phrase, "revelation from outside". So I will pray into that. Father, I pray that You will indeed bring revelation for Sue and for New Covenant Church. I pray for new revelation on their calling as a body. I do not know if this means it will come from outside the church walls, or if it will come through someone outside the usual circle of intercessors. Father, regardless of the source, make it clear that You are the One with the message of hope for Your people. Release Your anointing on New Covenant, bring forth this revelation onto eager hearts and open ears. Sue, I don't know what this all means, or what He has in store, but I am just saying prepare your hearts for something big to come. Keep your mind sharp and look for His movements in unlikely places. Grace and Peace to you and New Covenant.

Eoghan, let me first say, Happy Saint Patrick's Day. I want to pray for you as well as Ireland. Father God, I thank you for Eoghan and the passion You have given him for the lost in the inner city of Dublin. I thank You that Your Holy Spirit has spoken to his heart and he is smitten for the broken and hurting. Lord, You know the heartbreak and anguish that has befallen the country of Ireland throughout the centuries, and You also know the many saints that have come forth from that land with an unbridled passion to bring the saving power of Your Son, Jesus Christ to their homeland. Father, pour out Your mercy on this land, pour out compassion overflowing into Eoghan's heart. Show him favor, Father, as he seeks to further Your Kingdom. May Christ be in every ear that hears him and every eye that sees him. May your favor rest on him and may Your Holy Spirit dwell within him. Amen.

Dustin, I know you are somewhat anxious about your upcoming elbow surgery so I will pray into that and whatever else comes up. Father God, I pray for Dustin's elbow now, as it connects his skilled hands to his heart for You. I pray that all will go even better than the surgeons could ever anticipate. I pray not only for complete healing, but that his elbow would be stronger than ever. I pray for any time of recovery in which he will have to lay down his instrument. That it will be filled with such a joyous communion with You, that he will be reluctant to even pick it up again. Thank You Father for Dustin's skilled hands, for his devoted heart, and for the elbow that goes between them.

Rob, as I pray for you, I get the words "simplify" and "break it down". As I don't know you, I am not sure how this is to be interpreted. But I get a sense that it has to do with worship and perhaps some of the passion has been tapped by complications, whether it be in logistics or relationships. I feel you will be more at peace if, when faced with a decision, the less complicated, simpler road is chosen. So I pray now, Father God, for Rob, that he will see where You want him to simplify and perhaps even get back to the basics with his ardent worship of You. May he feel no burden of guilt for taking steps to simplify, and that his purposes are tied up in such an uncomplicated relationship with his Lord and Savior. May Your Holy Spirit speak to his heart, short, simple messages that he can convey through simple acts of worship, that reflect the tremendous love of Christ to His people.I pray he will be always ready with a simple answer to why he has such hope in glory.

Morgan, as I pray this scripture over you, I get the sense that you are very gung-ho to press on towards the goal which God has called you to, but are not sure exactly what He is calling you towards. I pray now, that the Lord will reveal soon to you His will and His designs for you in this season of your life. I pray that you will see fruits from even this time of your life, people whom you have touched through your obedience to follow Him.
I pray for open doors that will be so obvious that His hand is in, that you will run through them. I pray for new songs to come to you, even as you sleep. I don't know if this is a song title, but I hear "Merciful Savior" as I press into this prayer.

That he will show others how to resist bitterness and speak love in the face of contempt. May others see how he lives a life free of resentment and regret and want that same unanimity in their own lives.

Father this scripture tells us that through Christ and our faith in Him, we can approach You with freedom and confidence and I sense that this is not of a problem for Chuck and the people of Destiny Family Center to embrace. But what I hear is "be still". So I pray for Chuck, that he may be able to balance entering the Holy of Holies with both confidence and due reverence, with freedom and stillness. May he bring silence as a tool of deep worship and listening as a partner in prayer. I pray Father that You will speak volumes into the space created in their worship. That mysteries will be revealed in the pauses of their prayers. Speak to Your people in this congregation words that will set captives free in their community, that will speak healing to the broken hearted, and salvation to the lost. Open their ears to Your heart. Let them be still and know that You are God.

Hallerin, my heart goes out to you as you deal with the passing of your Father. As I pray for you, I hear the word legacy. Not so much the work ethic he taught you, or the family name you are proud to carry, though those are valuable things. I sense the most important legacy is that he helped bring into focus in your life that internal desire for eternity and how to achieve that. So, Father God, I pray for Hallerin, that You will bring him comfort in his loss, and the blessed assurance that because of the firm foundation he has in Your gift of salvation, it will just be a short time before he is at his father's side, worshipping at Your throne. I thank You Father, for the man that Hallerin is today because of his father, salt of the earth, and a beacon of light in a world that so easily sidetracked down darkened paths. May he set an example to many on how to grieve with hope. May his days be filled with loving memories of his father that will inspire him to lift people up and show them that in which he places his trust. Your everlasting Kingdom. Show him glimpses of that glory to come, Amen!

He wants to reveal to you plans He has for you and your husband to partner in with Him to advance His Kingdom. He will not be vague. You will know it is Him, but it will not be an easy choice by the world's standards. Think everlasting. He knows it will not be easy, but think everlasting. I pray also that He will pour new songs, new poems, and new prayers into your heart as He prepares you for this new and everlasting adventure.

Lord, bless these people who, by proclaiming Your name, are subject to unheard of brutality. Yet they sing. They sing Your praises with no holding back. They are all in. I pray now, Father, that You would stand and make the nations tremble. That Your eternal ways will permeate Your people and strike fear into the hearts to those who raise a hand against them. Show Yourself Lord and be their defender. Let Slater see fruits of his labor, and may we as a people, learn from Your children in The Sudan to be all in and not just paying You lip service.

Michael, you have a heart to bring people into the presence of the Almighty and the Lord has blessed you with the ability to construct songs and lyrics that draw people to Him. I pray that you will always feel the Lord's protection, His shield around you, even as you venture into new and uncharted territory. May He bestow glory on you, not for the adulation of men, but His glory for His purposes, for His enjoyment. Even when you are feeling unworthy and incapable of entering the Holy of Holies, may our Father God, with His infinite mercy, be the lifter of your head, the restorer of your heart, and the lover of your soul. Whom shall you fear? The Lord is your light and salvation. Walk in His calling. Whom shall you fear?

March 2 - Robert Craig

March 2 - Robert Craig


March 2 ( 3:2 )
.
"Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God"
Revelation 3:2
.
.

For Robert Craig, worship leader at Two Rivers Church and House of Prayer Cambodia.

.
Oh Robert, how you know that your deeds are not complete. Your heart's desire to be among the lost and broken in Cambodia on a full time basis has not been fulfilled. I pray now that the reasons for God tarrying on this will be made clear and that you will take full advantage of this additional time to prepare. Cambodia's loss is Two Rivers' gain, but I say now, "Enough Lord". We have had enough of Robert and Anita if it means one more young girl is sold into the sex slave in Cambodia. Father, open the doors and create favor that was not there 6 months ago, or even a week ago. Send to them partners and support that were not their last month. You are good Lord, and Your timing is perfect. Robert, I say to you, strengthen what remains. Do not let your passion and desire to set captives free to waiver, to diminish one iota. Continue to say to the Lord your God, "Here am I..Send ME!"

March 1 - Theresa DeMers

March 1 - Theresa DeMers


March 1 ( 3 : 1 )
.
"See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God"
1 John 3:1
.
For Theresa DeMers RCIA director for St. Francis DeSales Church in Newark Ohio.
.
Theresa, a friend of my sister requested I pray for you and I agreed. Sometimes I get images in dreams and last night was one of those times. Since I do not know if this was for you or for me, I will share it and if it does not fit, maybe it was just for me. But in the dream there was several packed suitcases and I was meeting with a surgeon who I did not actually see, but spoke to. I asked what was needed for the procedure and he said all I needed is what was in the box. I opened the box and in it was a human heart and hiking boots. I prayed for revelation about what this would mean and this is my prayer for you.
.
Father God, we often surround ourselves with things we think we need to journey with You. All You desire of us is a new heart. A heart that is clean and renewed. You want us to walk with You, and sometimes we walk down paths with You that we've feel we have walked 100 times before, and it gets so routine that there is nothing new or spectacular about it. I pray now that Theresa will put on the shoes to walk the paths You have laid out for her . That she would not think routine or mundane the opportunity to walk alongside the Creator of the heavens and earth, even though sometimes the tasks of the day may seem less than spectacular. And these were not merely walking shoes You have given her, but hiking boots, for You may call her to more treacherous terrain as she seeks to minister to the poor of heart. But You shall indeed give her hinds feet on high places, and with the new heart, she will not grow weary. Father, Theresa has served You well thus far, but I know You are calling her to a deeper and much more rewarding walk with You. She can leave behind the baggage, for You are her provider. Put on the boots, and lets give that new heart a workout.
