“I HUMBLY SUBMIT”

I HUMBLY SUBMIT

Father God, I humbly submit myself to your will. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but You, Oh GOD, deliver us from them all! 

Touch those who are sick and in pain with your finger of healing and restoration; comfort those who are grieving loss with your peace that surpasses all understanding; and those who are lonely and lost let them feel your everlasting love. 

Heal the brokenhearted, strengthen the weak, and give us peace in the midst of chaos. For in uncertain times like these, You alone are our assurance and our source of STRENGTH for The Journey! 

For You will never allow the righteous to be shaken—therefore, Release Your Love where Hate abides; Release Your Peace where there is Chaos; Release Your Joy where there is Sorrow; Release Your Hope where there is Despair, and give us Rest when we get weary. Make our feet like Hind’s feet so that we can maneuver the slippery slopes of every life situation!

Thank you, Abba, for meeting us at the very point of our need. It’s in Jesus’ mighty and matchless Name I pray and give you all glory! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.” (1 Peter‬ ‭5‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

“TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS”

“TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS”

In this world trials will test your faith, stretch your patience and attempt to rob you of your peace…But don’t sacrifice Holiness for Happiness!  Happiness is dependent upon “happenings” and therefore is fleeting. On the other hand, JOY comes from knowing JESUS—The world didn’t give it to you and the world can’t take it away!🙌🏼👆🏽 

In order to be “Trees of Righteousness” [strong and magnificent, set apart for integrity, justice, and right standing with God] you must allow God’s perfect work to take root in you so that you may produce good fruit to share with those around you. 

How you go through trials will be a testament of your Faith and a beacon of hope to many.🙏🏽💪🏽 God’s promises are always true—He will give you beauty for ashes, a garment of praise and the Oil of His JOY will once again flow freely from your heart onto all you encounter!💜SHALOM🙏🏽~M. Ford 

“To console those who mourn in Zion, To give them beauty for ashes, The Oil of JOY for mourning, The garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; That they may be called Trees of Righteousness, The planting of the Lord, that He may be glorified.” (Isaiah‬ ‭61‬:‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

“WANTED: DEAD, YET ALIVE”

“WANTED: DEAD, YET ALIVE”

Abba Father, there is nothing too hard for You, who called everything into existence by simply saying, “Let there be”! 

Therefore, I humbly ask that you hear our heart’s cry and every plea as we pray for the sick to be healed and restored; for people rich and poor alike to seek to know You, Elohim, in the beauty of Your holiness; for the lost and unchurched to flock into the House of Prayer seeking deliverance and restoration in Christ Jesus; and that the hearts of the saints will be set on fire for You—to truly hunger and thirst after your righteousness—seeking to love God, learn the Word, serve Others, and Live Holy for Your Glory—withholding nothing and surrendering all as we crucify this flesh daily! 

Father God, allow Your anointing to fall Fresh on Your people this day; empowering us to do Greater works for Your Glory! Let Your Will be done on earth as it is done in Heaven—It’s In Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise you always…Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

“I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me.” (Galatians‬ ‭2‬:‭20‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

“MAKEOVER”

“MAKEOVER”

Oh Lord, Our God…Hear the prayers of the righteous and heal, restore, deliver and set us free from every shackle that binds and weighs that hinders a closer walk with thee! Help us be the light and salt that you’ve called us to be in this dark and unsavory world.

Great Jehovah…strip away worldly passions, circumcise hearts from the things that break your heart, and lead your people into righteousness for your namesake I pray!

Purge, renew and strengthen us this day, and empower us to live Holy. Hear every cry that go forth from a pure heart and manifest your glory in our lives! 

It’s In the mighty and matchless Name above All names I pray..JESUS! Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford 

“But now, O LORD, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand.” ‭‭(Isaiah‬ ‭64‬:‭8‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

LIVING WATER 💦

Jehovah Nissi, my banner of Victory!

I come interceding and standing in the gap with prayers for a sick and dying world. Your Word says that “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; Then will I hear from heaven, forgive their sin, and heal the land. Our land, Oh Lord, needs a healing!

Therefore, I pray for those who don’t have the strength or awareness to stand firm against Satanic attacks. I pray that their understanding and discernment of spiritual things will grow, and that your grace and mercy will meet them right where they are.

Bless the ones whose heart is seeking hard after you, but continue to search in all the wrong places! Holy Spirit, draw them to Christ, the Living Water, by your Love!

Free minds bound by negativity and release a JOY in their hearts that can only come through knowing Jesus!

Thank you, Abba, for hearing and answering this humble prayer in Jesus’ Name…Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

SOUL FOOD

“SOUL FOOD”

Heavenly Father, Thank you for the gift of Confession—It is indeed good food for our Souls! Because of the shed blood of Jesus, we can live a new life free from the bondage of sin. 

Gracious Father, allow the purifying power of your Holy Spirit to cleanse our lives from all things that dishonor you and hinder us from doing your perfect will. In the mighty name of Jesus, we cast off every form of unrighteousness and yield our total being—Mind, Body, Soul, and Spirit to your transforming grace. You are the Potter and we are the clay! Help us, Oh Lord, to trust you and walk in holiness day-by-day! 

It’s in the saving Name of Jesus I pray and praise you always! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” (1 John‬ ‭1:9‬ ‭ESV‬‬)

LIVING WATERS

“LIVING WATERS”

Heavenly Father, pour out your spirit like rivers of living water on your children, and give us favor as we seek your face today. 

Fill our hearts with overflowing love for You, love for one another, and love for those we encounter. Create in us a clean heart and renew in us a right spirit. 

Give us the heart of a Lion so that we walk in Holy boldness—standing firm for things that are right in a world that has chosen to fall for things that are wrong. 

Endow us with the wisdom of Solomon so that we might have understanding and discernment in all things. 

Shower us with a spirit of praise and worship like David—recognizing WHO You are and responding to Your character, creation, and faithfulness at all times and in all situations! Gift us with spiritual 20/20 vision like Elisha—living in the natural realm, but seeing things in the supernatural realm! 

Like Daniel in the lions den, give us a quiet peace deep within that comes with the confidence in knowing that You, Oh Lord, are GREATER than anything and ABOVE all things!  

Great Jehovah, build us up in our most holy faith like Esther, far such a time as this, so that we won’t falter and fail when trials and troubles come our way, but rather we will mount up on wings like an eagle and soar into Victory! 

Strengthen us, Oh LORD, as we prevail in fervent prayer—being ever-ready to give the TESTIMONY of the TEST that we’ve endured and overcome by The Blood🩸of the Lamb and by the word of our testimony!☝🏾🙌🏼

It’s in the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray and praise You alway, Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” (John‬ ‭7‬:‭38‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

“SESRCH ME!”

“SEARCH ME!”

Heavenly Father, Thank you for your new mercies today! Thank you for your grace that you so freely give. 

Now search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any sinful ways in me and cleanse me from all unrighteousness! 

Create in me a clean heart, Oh Lord, and renew in me a right spirit so that I may be used to do GREATER works—all for your glory and honor! 

Help us to effectively show and share the love of Christ as we go—discerning when to be as humble as a Lamb and when to be as fierce as a Lion in order to accomplish every good work for the building up of Your Kingdom here on earth. 

It’s in the mighty and matchless name of JESUS, I pray and praise always…Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
