In the midst of our current cultural turmoil, we stand firmly in the truth that God longs for us to talk with Him. When we pray with confidence, we know that God hears every word that comes from our lips. When we praise Him for what He has done – and will do for us, we burst with joy. God longs for us to share our requests, concerns, and fears; to lift up our families, friends, and communities.
God intends prayer to be the means of obtaining His solutions in a number of situations. We pray in preparation for major decisions (Luke 6:12-13); to overcome demonic barriers (Matthew 17:14-21); to gather workers for the spiritual harvest (Luke 10:2); to gain strength to overcome temptation (Matthew 26:41); to obtain the means of strengthening others spiritually (Ephesians 6:18-19), and when things become too much to bear (2 Corinthians 1:3,4). So let us pray!

As the Times of Trouble are upon us, the prayer of Psalm 91 is comforting and effective when prayed from the heart by those who love God and are in relationship with Him.
PSALM 91
Whoever dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Surely he will save you from the fowler’s snare and from the deadly pestilence. He will cover you with his feathers,and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart. You will not fear the terror of night, nor the arrow that flies by day, nor the pestilence that stalks in the darkness, nor the plague that destroys at midday. A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you. You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked. If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. You will tread on the lion and the cobra; you will trample the great lion and the serpent. “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.” AMEN!
Dear Heavenly Father,
You are our sufficiency, our all in all. You long to have fellowship with us. Father, help us to do that more and more. Give us more wisdom in our walk with you and Jesus. We ask for financial freedom. For all the people affected by this unholy virus, that they would have their needs met. Let this be true for all your believers. Father we worship you, adore you and are so incredibly thankful for all you’ve done for us and we believe, without a shadow of a doubt, that you will give us all things according to your riches and glory in Christ Jesus. ❤
Bless John Lynn and his wife, Franco and Christina, Jon Touchstone and Christine. They truly are on the front lines. Keep them and us in the hallow of your glorious hand. We love you and your amazing son, Jesus Christ. ❤
Thank you, heavenly Father, that your holy Son taught us to fear not, and that we have confidence that our prayers are answered because we believe the truth.
May your people walk and talk boldly, without ‘cancel culture’ diminishing the power of their words.
Thanks for your provision in all things and for reminding us that you care deeply for us.
And it is in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, that we humbly but boldly pray.
Thank you so much for this word in prayer and the prayer list!
ABBA Almighty, Thank you for the discernment of truth in that we ask not amiss, and giving us an escape from evil and wicked men. Show us the wiles of our enemy, be our buckler and reward. Thank you for your Son Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords – our Savior for evermore. Thank you Lord Jesus Christ for your council, help and direction to be more like you. Amen!
Heavenly Father, and Jesus, my best friend,

Father, your Word says you (absolutely) will supply ALL of our needs according to Your riches in glory.! We believe and we receive. You love us with such an everlasting love. There should not be any competition in our prayers, but gut wrenching honesty from our hearts, with our trust in You that supplies all of our needs according to Your riches in glory!!!
Dear gracious heavenly Father, as you continue to bare your arm of strength for your beloved children, comfort and strengthen us, for we look to you as our unfailing source of all that is good. Guide us to do your will and to minister to all that you have put in our path.
Please pray for my husband’s health and energy. Please pray for diversity of tongues. Please pray for our country to be more united and all this bitterness to be gone. Thank you God bless this wonderful country.
Pray that the Word of the Lord moves swiftly and is glorified during this crisis, and that a cure for this virus comes quickly.
Also pray for our country Tanzania. We want to see God move in this difficult situation. He is the remaining hope we have.
In addition to the Media to provide honest information…pray that our Father changes Google, Twitter, Facebook, etc to not censure His Truth or the believers.
Pastors, overseers, teachers, elders, and all members of the body of Christ to be spiritually united on the rightly divided Word of God.
Prayers for our state governors for godly decisions for the people they represent.

Our gracious God, help us to not lean on our own understanding of things, but in all we do acknowledge You, so that You can direct our words, thoughts and actions. Our world is a mess! Forgive us for focusing on anything or anyone but You. Thank You for your Word that equips and empowers us to live each day.
Lord Jesus, thank you for your love. Thank you that when I am weak, you are strong. Lord you know the Devil is scheming – and we know he desires to keep us from fellowshipping with you, as he tries to hijacks our minds to think on other things. Father, help us keep our righteous focus. Don’t allow the devil to have the upper hand. Give us the strength so that we might not give into discouragement, deception or doubt. Lord, we know you have not left us alone in this battle. We know that you are with us, even when the enemy seems to be taking ground. We cry out to you Lord Jesus for your passionate help in this hour of need.
Father God, Thank You for Your unfailing love for us, Your blessings, and goodness. Thank You for Your faithfulness to guide us and see us through times of uncertainty, for lifting us up, and setting us on high. Thank You for your Word that comforts and reminds us of Your promises, your plan, and your provisions. Thank you for taking away our fears and worries, and the what-ifs, and reminding us that our help comes from You alone.
What a beautiful prayer. Very enlightening. God bless

Thank for your hand of protection upon all mentioned and commented here, and angels surrounding all of the prayer warriors and everyone on these comments; also place a perimeter around all on these comments, all the prayer warriors that is free from Covid-19, in the names of your blessed and beloved Son, Jesus Christ, our living Lord and Savior!??
