A Prayer For You On My Birthday

Today is my birthday, and I would like to take this opportunity to say “Thank you” to you and all the readers who have taken the time to read the prayers I’ve written on this blog over the years. I started writing this blog because the Lord spoke to my heart and prompted me to write prayers for those out there who I might not necessarily know or be able to see, but whom God loves and wanted to know that He cares and is constantly thinking and looking out for them.

I am here to serve you and encourage you; this is what I see as my calling. I believe I was created to serve, encourage and uphold people who are going through difficulties, people who have been neglected and have no hope, people who may not have anyone or family close by to talk to, people who are lonely and looking for a friend, people who are down, depressed with feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness. I pray and hope that you can find a friend in me through the writings of this blog and I pray and hope that you are constantly blessed and uplifted each time you visit to read the prayers.

Today, I would like to say to you and all the 20,000+ people who have visited this blog and are still visiting daily, “Thank you so much”. May God richly bless you and be the glory and lifter of your head. When you cry to the LORD with your voice, may he hear you from His holy hill and answer your heart’s cries. When you lie down and sleep, may the LORD be your keeper and sustain you. May He strengthen you in your inner man and be your Rock, Fortress and your Deliverer. May you ever shout for joy because the LORD will defend you and bring you through in every situation. May the LORD’s right hand hold you up and His gentleness make you great. May He light your lamp, enlighten your darkness and make a way for you where there seems to be no way. May the LORD answer you in the day of trouble, may the name of the God of Jacob defend you and may He send you help from the sanctuary and strengthen you in times of weakness.

May the LORD grant you according to your heart’s desire and fulfill all your purpose. May you see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. I pray that you will be of good courage and may the LORD continuously strengthen your heart. May the LORD fulfill all your petitions I pray in Jesus Name.

Thanks for your support in reading my blogs. With kind regards and lots of hugs.

There Is Power In The Blood of Jesus! Use it, pray it, plead it!

A lot of us are going through quite a lot at the moment and we are wondering, “when will it all end?” I cannot guarantee you and give you the perfect answer of when it will all end but one thing I know is that in spite of it all, Jesus said in His Word that He would never leave us nor forsake us, that is if we believe and put our trust in Him. There is power in the Blood of Jesus. No matter what you may be going through right now I pray that the peace of God will surround you and carry you through.

I would encourage you today to put your trust in Him and pray the prayer below. Please make sure you pray it everyday, first thing in the morning and last thing at night.  It will make a difference in your life, why?  Because the blood of Jesus speaks, demons tremble and flee when they hear any confession about the blood of Jesus.  Try it and see, things will surely improve for you if you dont give up on your confession.  I wish you many blessings and victory upon victory in all aspects of your life.  This is a spiritual warfare weapon, please use it.

Confess this prayer:
"Father,

In the name of Jesus, I plead the Blood of Jesus on my entire physical body, on my entire soul and on my entire spirit. I plead the Blood of Jesus against any demons that may try and come against me. I Plead the Blood of Jesus against any humans that may try and come against me.

I plead the Blood of Jesus against any natural accidents or catastrophe's that may come against me. I plead the Blood of Jesus against any diseases, illnesses or sicknesses that could possibly come against me.

Father, in the name of Jesus, I have full faith and belief that the Blood of Jesus will now protect me against all of the things that I have just pled His Blood on.

Thank you Father.  Thank you Jesus."

Praise Him Through The Good And The Bad



Praising God is not an option, it is our highest calling.  You and I have been called to praise.  When circumstances are good, it is easier to praise God, but when things are bad is when we must praise God the most.  When we praise God we are acknowledging that He is the source of all our blessings and not we ourselves.  It is God that gives us wealth and every good thing, therefore it is our duty and calling to acknowledge Him regardless of what we are going through, having faith and belief that He will bring us out of every dark valley. 

People who do not know God and have no relationship with Him point the finger of accusation at Him anytime something goes wrong, but those who know Him, those who have a relationship and have faith in Him must give Him praise even when things are going wrong because praise is what is due to Him. 

The Bible says in Psalm 23, "The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want..."  God cares about your needs, He said you shall not want for anything, He is our provider and He has a plan to provide for you if only you will acknowledge Him and praise Him in the midst of your trials.  When our soul is troubled Psalm 23 vs 3 assures us, "He restores my soul;..."  He will restore your soul, He will give you peace and provide for you out of His abundance of riches in heavenly places.  I pray that your soul will be restored if it is troubled, and that the Lord will lead you in the paths of righteousness for His name's sake.   

No matter how bad your situation is right now, I encourage you, do not be afraid because the Lord says in Psalm 23 vs 4, "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,"I will fear no evil..."  Why is the Bible encouraging us not to be afraid of evil?  Because Psalm 23 vs 4 further assures us of this fact, "...For you are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me..."  I pray that you will have an attitude of gratitude and praise Him at all times because He has promised that He will never leave you nor forsake you.  He is always there for us.  You may not know it, you may not feel it, but He is there at all times, especially in the valley, He comforts us and sticks with us when we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, ill health, unpaid bills, anxiety, fear, panic attacks, depression, separation, divorce etc.  He is there believe it or not.  I pray that you will put your trust in Him and lean on Him.  Cry out to God, He will be there for you.  Praise Him at all times. 

I encourage you today, anytime you feel low, your faith is failing or you have no faith at all, come here and listen to the words of this song.  Let it minister to your troubled soul.  Listen to the words of this song, let it soothe you and encourage you.  May the Lord's goodness and His mercy follow you all the days of your life and may you dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

When I am down and feeling low, praise is what I do, why don't you try and praise Him?  God bless you and lift you up as you do.

May the LORD be your Shepherd Today and Everyday

1 The LORD is my shepherd;
         I shall not want.

Prayer:     May the LORD be your shepherd, today, everyday, every night and every moment of every day. The LORD is the great Pastor of the universe, our Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel. May He shepherd and pastor you in everyway. As sheep is preserved on a farm by the shepherd, may the LORD preserve you and your family, may you find safety in Him and may He watch over you all the days of your life. May you taste the goodness of the living God in all that you lay your hands to do.

2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
       He leads me beside the still waters.

Prayer:     You may not have a lot, but if you have tasted God in all His goodness, you will know that He is good. I pray that you will find green pastures in the living God. He is the God of abundance, He will provide for you. The goodness of God is a green pasture. May you know and taste His goodness all the days of your life. This is where you will find rest for your soul.

3 He restores my soul;
         He leads me in the paths of righteousness
         For His name’s sake.

Prayer:     May you find peace and contentment in the restoration of your soul. If your soul is troubled, may the LORD restore your soul, may He restore your finances, may He restore your children, your marriage, your job and all that concerns you. May the stream which flows from the Fountain of Living waters restore your soul and may Jesus lead and guide you in the path of righteousness, that His Name may be glorified in you. When you walk in the path of righteousness, the LORD will comfort you and deliver you from every affliction. Put your trust in Him, the great Shepherd, hearken to His voice and He will lead you in the right path. He will restore and calm your soul.

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
            I will fear no evil;
            For You are with me;
            Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Prayer:     Even when you are going through the most severe and terrible affliction, when you are going through the darkest hour, may the spirit of fear be bound from you and may you have enough strength to conquer your fears, for God has not given you a spirit of fear, but of love and of power and of a sound mind. I pray that your mind will be sound and whole. May you not be lost in the valley of affliction, may you get safe to the mountain on the other side, the mountain of victory and rejoicing. May the LORD rebuke all your enemies and guide and sustain you with His rod and His staff. Underneath you are His Everlasting arms, you are safe and secure in His arms. I pray that you will put your trust in the LORD and believe that your security and safety is in Him. Underneath you are His Everlasting arms. He loves you more than you can ever know.

5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
           You anoint my head with oil;
           My cup runs over.

Prayer:     May you feast on the Lord’s table. May the LORD provide for you super abundantly. All your enemies will see and be dismayed; their shame shall be multiplied in many ways. May God perform the miraculous in the presence of your enemies. May your cup of salvation be ever full to overflowing and may the anointing of the Holy Spirit overflow in your life and your cup run over in every direction.

6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
              All the days of my life;
              And I will dwell in the house of the LORD
              Forever.

Prayer:     May the goodness and mercy of the LORD follow you all the days of your life. May the LORD make every situation in your life pleasant and victorious. May all your sorrows turn into joy and may He turn your mourning into dancing again. May your joy be full to overflowing and may your victory be permanent in every aspect of your life. This is my prayer for you, your family and loved ones.

In order to enjoy all of the blessings of Psalm 23, I pray that you will submit your will to the LORD, all that you struggle with, all your pain and past memories, your childhood nightmares and everything that seems like a heavy weight upon your life. Cast your cares on Him, He cares for you.  He will lead and guide you. May all your hopes and desires be fulfilled in the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit in Jesus Name. Amen.  He who watches over you neither sleeps nor slumbers.  Underneath you are His Everlasting Arms.

May You Stay Strong In the Midst of Crisis

Without a shadow of doubt, one can surely say the times we are in are very, very challenging times. Sadly, when I sought the Lord’s opinion about this, He gave me an answer that we may all not want to hear, but the truth has to be told, He said, “my daughter, things are not going to get any better, in fact things are going to get much worse across the world.” He said, “Economically, there is a fierce invincible warfare already going on in the realm of the spirit and things are not going to get better. The spirit of fear will play a major role in the decision making and affairs of the rulers of the world. Nations will become more insecure, and because of this they would want to maintain leadership over other Nations, hence we are looking at warfare, both spiritually and physically. The enemy has increased the force of his battle around the world.

In view of this, I would like to encourage you to stay strong and pray like you’ve never prayed before. If you are not keen on prayer, I can't help but say you are leaving yourself open to attack. Prayer is simple; it is communication between you and God. I encourage you to pray for yourself, your family and friends, even for those you are not so keen on. Pray to God, ask Him to cover and protect innocent victims, people going about their daily chores, people travelling on the tubes, the planes, across the sea, on buses and so on. Pray that we will not experience another 9/11 attack or July 7th attack or other attacks and retaliations across the Nations. Pray for the peace of the world, the peace of Jerusalem and peace in the Middle East. Ask God to protect the children, orphans across the world, children who are victims of circumstance and war, abused children, babies, the innocent and the suffering.

We pray that the wisdom of God will guide our leaders and decision makers, so that they can make the right judgements. We pray that they will make peace and not war. We pray that the financial crisis will not get any worse and that the spirit of greed will not overtake our Bankers and lead us into a worse crisis.

Today, I pray for you and your family that God the Creator of Heaven and Earth will protect and watch over you. I pray that you would stay strong in the midst of the crisis and that God will make a way out for you if you are struggling and finding life hard and difficult at the moment. If you have shed a few tears here and there, I pray that God would wipe away your tears and comfort you. May He provide a way of escape for you and give you a solution to your problems. May He meet you at the point of your need, every moment of everyday. I pray that He will strengthen you in your inner man so that you are not moved by what you see, but that you would stand in the midst of adversity. I pray that the peace of God will be your guide and that He Himself, our God, Jehovah Almighty, will be your rear guard, He will uphold you with the right hand of His righteousness and carry you through the difficult moments, the loneliness, fear, anxiety, worry, pain, anger, insecurity, low self esteem and all the attacks of the enemy.

Finally, I leave you with the words of the Bible. I encourage meditating on Isaiah 43:2. This is the Word of the Lord to you:

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you;

And through the rivers, they shall not overflow you.

When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned,

Nor shall the flame scorch you.

Be encouraged and don’t give up. God bless you today and always. Shalom.

May the LORD Cover Your Head In The Day of Battle


This morning, whilst I was meditating on the prayer I was going to write, the Lord gave me the word “Battle”. I wondered what this meant, and then I got a revelation from the Lord that whether we realise it or not, we are in a battle. Just like King David in the Old Testament, we are all in a battle. The battle of life, struggles of all sorts, creating fear and insecurity in the lives of many. Humanity is struggling to remain ruler over all things, trying to grasp the true meaning of life, fighting for power and superiority and looking for an answer that no one is able to give. For the majority, fear has taken over a large percentage of their lives. The era we are in is an era of uncertainty, fear and insecurity, major challenges, battles and struggles.

The current economic climate across the world is a clear indication of the times that we are in. No longer can one rely on their salaries or jobs alone. That era is far gone from us. No longer can we rely on each other anymore, we must not rely on men and means. Many have become “lovers of self”, and everyone is busy trying to make a living to pay bills. The rat race continues without any sign of it stopping. Wherever we are, at home or abroad, we are exposed to danger more than we are aware of.

Thinking about all these, the question that comes to mind is the same question that King David asked whilst he was engaged in battle,


“I will lift up my eyes to the hills—
From whence comes my help?”


Answer:

“My help comes from the LORD,
Who made heaven and earth.”


If you are afflicted by sickness, you are in a battle, if you are struggling and finding it hard to pay your bills and your are not able to find a job, you are in a battle, if you are feeling low and depressed, hearing voices of defeat and failure, you are surely in a battle.

David trusted God to cover his head in the day of battle. He realised that he needed help; otherwise he would not survive the battle. He realised that he needed God’s help in order to gain victory. This was what led him to write Psalm 121. This psalm directs and encourages us to rest ourselves and our confidence in God.

I pray that you would rest your heart and put your confidence in God. I pray that by faith you would put yourself under God’s protection and commit yourself to His care, with an entire resignation and satisfaction that your help will come from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

I recommend and encourage you to read and confess Psalm 121 to yourself every night before you go to sleep. There is power in God’s Word.

Please take the time to pray this prayer now and set the spiritual fire in the Word of God in motion in your life.

Your Confession:

1     I (..insert your name..) will lift up my eyes to the hills—
       From whence comes my help?

2     My help comes from the LORD,
       Who made heaven and earth.

3    He will not allow (..insert your name..) foot to be moved;
      He who keeps (..insert your name..) will not slumber.


4    Behold, He who keeps (..insert your name..)
      Shall neither slumber nor sleep.


5    The LORD is (..insert your name..) keeper; (repeat this line x3)
      The LORD is my shade at my right hand.

6    The sun shall not strike (..insert your name..) by day,
      Nor the moon by night.

7    The LORD shall preserve (..insert your name..) from all evil;
      He shall preserve my soul.


8    The LORD shall preserve my going out and my coming in
       From this time forth, and even forevermore.


I agree with you as you appropriate this prayer for yourself in Jesus Name. Amen.

Remember this: “And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.” (Matthew 11:12) KJV

Go out there and take it by force!

If you are ill, take back your health, take it by force! If you are feeling low and depressed, take back your mental well being, lift up your head and take your wholeness back, take it by force! If you are hearing voices of defeat and failure, take back your success and victory, take it by force! If you are struggling to get a job, or feeling threatened that you might lose your job, claim your victory, confess your victory, claim your job, read the Word, stand on the Word, appropriate it to yourself and take back what belongs to you, by force! If you are struggling with your bills, get your confession right, take the Word of God, sling it at the devil and knock down any Goliath standing before you. God will provide for you, His name is Jehovah Jireh. Go on, take back what belongs to you. Take it by force! Take it now, don’t let go. Take it by force! The victory is yours in Jesus Name. Amen.

May God Elevate You & Your Family in 2011

I was sitting doing my Bible studies sometime in November 2010, when I heard the voice of the Lord say to me "Tell my children who have been faithful to me that next year, 2011, will be their year of elevation."  My first reaction was that of doubt in my mind.  I said, "Lord you know every year people get similar messages like this and nothing happens in their lives, by the middle of the year they are already busy complaining."  The Lord said to me, "The reason why the words never come to pass in their lives is because when the word was initially given, the people receive it but fail to continue to proclaim by faith what they had received and so the devil comes and steals that word from them, so their confession then changes to negative."  Today, I encourage you to be determined not to give up in spite of whatever circumstance you might find yourself.  The word of God is true and He is not a man that He should lie.

Your Message for 2011

This will be your year of elevation.  
  • God is going to move you to a higher place spiritually, mentally and physically.  He is going to reposition you from a lower place to a higher one.  He is going to lift you up and reposition you.
  • God is going to raise your rank.  Your status is going to change and He will promote you spiritually, mentally and physically.
  • He will lift up your spirit and elevate you to a higher dimension.
Zechariah 2:5,
For I,’ says the LORD, ‘will be a wall of fire all around her, and I will be the glory in her midst.’”

I pray that in 2011 God will be a wall of fire all around you and your loved ones and may He be the glory in your midst.  I pray that He will be the glory in your home, your family, your marriage, your job and all that concerns you.  May you be elevated to a higher place spiritually, mentally and physically and may the favour of God locate you for greater things.  No matter what challenges you may face in 2011, may the Lord surround you as the mountains surround Jerusalem and may He give you the strength to stand and be victorious in all that you do.  May God use all the trouble and hardships to elevate you and may you soar like an eagle as you embrace the storms of life. 

In 2011 your blessings will not be quantified, it will come from all directions, so be expectant because there will be great surprises in store for you.  I pray that you will not fall into temptation and  all of the devil's strategies to try and lure you into sin will fail and He will not be victorious concerning you or your loved ones.  May the Lord drown all your enemies in the red sea and may you cross over to the other side and be lifted and elevated in all that you do. 

In 2011, every mountain and hill before you will be levelled and brought low.  All the crooked places in your life will be made straight and the rough places smooth.  You shall have the last laugh in Jesus Name.  The glory of the Lord shall be revealed to you and all flesh shall see it together. Concerning you in 2011, may the Word of the Lord stand sure forever.  When you are weak, may the Lord give you the power to stand and increase your strength. May He contend against those who contend against you and fight against those who fight against you.  May He confound and confuse all the plans of the enemy concerning you.  God has chosen you and appointed you to be a ruler in all spheres of life.  I pray that you will rule and reign and call those things that be not as though they were.The Lord will build you a house and the sons of wickedness shall oppress you no more.  In 2011 the Lord will subdue all your enemies and make your name great.  The Lord will plant you and position you in the right place at the right time in Jesus Name and you shall not fail or fall.

This year, don't be in a hurry to do things, for the Bible says in Isaiah 28:16, "... he that believeth shall not make haste."  Be patient and still before the Lord.  Seek His face and ask Him for wisdom in all your decision making.  As you wait upon the Lord in 2011, I pray that God shall renew your strength; you shall mount up with wings like eagles, you shall run and not be weary, you shall walk and not faint.  Remain blessed and hold steadfastly to His word.
 
Rejoice! Congratulations and welcome to 2011, your year of elevation!
