We are privileged to pray for each other. We who follow Jesus know that He prayed for others and taught us to do so as well. we know that the early church grew because people prayed for Peter, James, John, Paul, and others. We know that prayer changes circumstances. We know of many incidences when we are reminded strongly by the Holy Spirit of someone we know, pray for that person, and later discover the Godincidence that at that very moment, that person was in crisis and needed the strength of prayer.
This is My Psalm 316, Intercession. May it bless your day, and don’t forget to ask a fellow believer to pray for you in whatever circumstance you find yourself. It’s the tie that binds our hearts.
MY PSALM 316 INTERCESSION
You are Mighty, Powerful, Omniscient and Omnipresent.
Thank you for governing my waking and sleeping.
In the silent recess of nighttime, You wake me to prayer.
Thank You for the silence which brings to mind
The names of those who need intercession.
You know their needs before I do, better than they do.
I pray Your Divine touch on each organ,
Even each rebel rogue cell.
Bring balance and strength and restore health.
For those troubled, I pray your calming spirit,
And the needed answers according to Your will.
For those in strained relationships,
I pray the look of love and forgiveness, just as You love us.
For those overwhelmed and anxious about situations,
I pray calm, clear direction, and Your lifting of burdens,
According to Your purposes in their life-walk with You.
You, Father God, have promised to be near us,
Utterly within us with Your Spirit.
I thank you expectantly for the changes in people’s lives,
Your Divine guidance and blessing, answers to prayer.
Just as You direct the paths of Your world,
Lord Jesus, be the intercessor
For those I lift up to Your throne.
Holy Spirit, bring direction and guidance,
The means of grace, evidences of Your compassion, mercy.
We rejoice even now
At the miraculous answers to prayers
You’ve taught us to expect.
For You alone, Triune God, are worthy of praise
And our very present help in times of trouble.
In times of trouble, our trust is in Your Name,
And our eternal gratitude belongs to You
For looking upon Your children with a Father’s love.
You hear our prayers as the sweet aroma of incense,
So let my prayer ascend to Your throne. Amen.
