A PASTOR AFTER GOD’s HEART (Day 3)

A PASTOR AFTER GOD’s HEART

Father God, I come praying for a mighty move of The Holy Spirit in our churches today! Put fire and desire into the hearts of Pastors to be servant-leaders that are Holy Spirit fed and Holy Spirit led.

Give us Pastors that are most concerned about building up the body of Christ so that the people of God will be spiritually equipped for such a time as this.

Lord GOD, REVIVE our churches and set us on fire for the Lord; truly demonstrating the unconditional love of Christ and fulfilling The Great Commission! This prayer I humbly submit in the transforming Name of Jesus. Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

“For when I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, since I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16 NIV)

A PASTOR AFTER GOD’s HEART (Day 2)

A PASTOR AFTER GOD’s HEART

Day 2: Father God, I come Praying that all Pastors will boldly stand and preach the uncompromised gospel and saving grace of Jesus Christ. I Pray for their direction, protection, guidance and encouragement each day and that they will have the moral fortitude to withstand temptations and will truly exhibit and support God’s agenda—standing fast to His Word and watering the congregations with the undiluted Word Of God so that Christians will be equipped to STAND in such tumultuous times as these.

Father God, help Pastors to lead like CHRIST—not leaning to their own understanding, but SEEKING Your guidance and direction in every area of their personal life and every plan and decision made concerning the body of Christ. Give them wisdom to truly understand the dire need for prevailing prayer and to continuously call church congregations as a whole into fervent prayer and intercession until the spirit of prayer spreads like wildfire across homes and churches until they truly become “A House of Prayer”!

Father GOD, Anoint Pastors with the power of The Holy Ghost as they lead their congregations into an understanding of the times, through the power of the preached Word, so that sinners will be saved, Saints will be edified and God will be glorified!

This is my heart’s cry, Oh Lord! It’s in the mighty, matchless and saving Name of Jesus Christ I pray…Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Woe to the shepherds who are destroying and scattering the sheep of my pasture!” declares the Lord. Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says to the shepherds who tend my people: “Because you have scattered my flock and driven them away and have not bestowed care on them, I will bestow punishment on you for the evil you have done,” declares the Lord. “I myself will gather the remnant of my flock out of all the countries where I have driven them and will bring them back to their pasture, where they will be fruitful and increase in number. I will place shepherds over them who will tend them, and they will no longer be afraid or terrified, nor will any be missing,” declares the Lord.” (Jeremiah 23:1-4 NIV)

A PRAYER FOR PASTORS~Day 1

A PRAYER FOR PASTORS

DAY 1: Father GOD, I come praying for pastors—those You appointed to shepherd, guide and instruct the body of Christ.

Crown their heads with wisdom and knowledge from YOU on high pertaining to spiritual things so that the body of Christ might be fully equipped for works of service that honor You!

Prune away the foolishness of man from their mind and anoint them with the fire of the Holy Ghost so that they will have YOUR discernment and discipline in order to build up the body of Christ according to Your perfect Will.

Father GOD, settle their mind and heart on things that will honor and bring glory to YOU, and not on things of this world that have no eternal value. Keep them fixed and focused on Your WORD and Your WILL and not be distracted by the enemy, lusts of the flesh or the pride of life!

Rekindle a fire and desire in Pastors hearts to see the body of Christ become strong in the FAITH and in the KNOWLEDGE of Christ Jesus; becoming mature believers manifesting Christ’s spiritual completeness and exercising spiritual gifts in unity for the evangelizing of sinners, edification of the saints and the exaltation of Christ!

Oh LORD, My GOD…my desire is to see the full manifestation of Your Glory in every House of God as as we LIVE OUT the mission of the church—fulfilling the great commission of Christ!

I declare and decree a supernatural shifting in the church atmosphere as we band together on one accord and fervently plead the sanctifying blood of Jesus over every Pastor for the next 7 days!

Have Your way Yahweh! It’s in the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray…Amen!🙏🏽🌈💪🏽🙏🏽~M. Ford

“So Christ himself gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the pastors and teachers, to equip his people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ. Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.” (Ephesians 4:11-14 NIV)

GOD IS STILL WORKING

GOD IS STILL WORKING

This is an incubation season for many. God is using this season in life to pull his people AWAY FROM many of the THINGS of this world that so easily distract us from truly doing HIS WILL. GOD IS WORKING to bring about internal CHANGE, to pull us CLOSER TO HIMSELF, and to line us up with HIS DIVINE PLAN.

GOD IS WORKING, so don’t rush The Master as HE WORKS to TRANSFORM the mundane into HIS MASTERPIECE.

GOD IS WORKING to bring HEALING to our LAND, which requires PRUNING of the people. The pruning PROCESS is PAINFUL, but necessary to produces BIGGER & BETTER FRUIT.

GOD IS STILL WORKING…know that your present PATH, and current PAIN has PURPOSE. LET GOD DO HIS PERFECT WORK IN YOU so that He can do HIS PERFECT WILL through you.

GOD IS STILL WORKING. Everything that STARTS must STOP. What BEGAN will END. SEASONS CHANGE…BUT GOD remains the SAME. TRUST HIS PROCESS and never forget that GOD…IS…STILL…WORKING!🙏🏽~M. Ford

DESTINY

DESTINY

Don’t let what you SEE make you forget what God has SAID—for our knowledge is fragmentary and incomplete.

The pages of your Life Story are still being written—God is the Author, so He has the last word, not man nor Satan.

Remember…Your Journey is just as important as Your Destination, but the beauty of the Journey is knowing Who holds Your Destiny.🌈🙏🏽~M. Ford

“For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is complete and perfect comes, that which is incomplete and partial will pass away.” (1 Corinthians 13:9-10)

CLEAN INSIDE

CLEAN INSIDE

Father God, I come praying for those under satanic attack—battling spiritual, emotional, or mental warfare.

I plead the blood🩸of Jesus over them for their deliverance from destruction and the breaking of strongholds.

Set Free those under demonic possession, suppression and oppression, and send forth deliverance from various addictions and unholy habits.

I lift up to You those needing deliverance from stress, anxiety and depression, and cleansing from foul language, sexual sins and unnatural behaviors contrary to your divine design.

I come pleading the blood of Jesus over every condition, situation, circumstance and/or person needing just one touch from You…decreeing and declaring that “The Blood Still Works!”🩸

PRAY…DON’T PANIC!

Father God, how excellent is your name in all the earth! Thank You that Your arm is not too short to reach down and save, nor is Your ear too heavy to hear the prayers of the righteous. For you promised to hear and draw near to all who call upon Your Name in truth, and to extend mercy and forgiveness to those who confess and forsake their sins.

Help those who believe in You to walk in a spirit of humility; recognizing that pride leads to destruction and humility precedes honor. Compel us to seek You first in prayer when faced with insurmountable odds—allowing urgency and fervency to characterize our prayers so that we Pray, and Not panic!

I pray that as we humbly seek Your face, our faith will increase in Your ability to intervene supernaturally in any situation and do the impossible!

I Praise You, Oh Lord, for Your promise to heal those who are sick; restore those who have fallen away; to bind up the wounds of the torn and bruised; and to restore the years that the locust has eaten!

Father God, raise up an army of Prayer Warriors and Intercessors who are willing to preserver in prayer—waging war against the enemy on their knees! Hear our humble cry this day and heal our land!

It’s in the mighty, matchless name of Jesus The Christ I pray and praise You always! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

LOVE & DEVOTION

LOVE & DEVOTION

Abba Father, I come seeking your face on behalf of Christian families today. Help us to honor You, Oh God, and prioritize the study of Your Word, Worship and Prayer together as a family unit. I pray for broken family relationships to be mended and new relationships formed based upon godly principles.

Raise up Christ-centered marriages—endowing husbands and wives with forgiving hearts towards one another and a sincere desire to do it God’s way and not their own way. Bind together husbands and wives in committed marriages and decrease divorce rates.

Help husbands to love the Lord with their whole hearts and love their wives like Christ loves the church. Bless and enable husbands to be the providers, heads of their households, divine leaders, loving and affectionate, and priests of their own homes.

I Pray that wives will support, encourage, pray for, respect and submit to their own husbands as unto the Lord with joy and trust the God in their husbands to lead as Christ would have them lead.

Father God, Help husbands and wives to commit to praying together and to consistently study Your Word together in order to put to death fleshly desires and cultivate an atmosphere of love, respect and peace in their home. Allow oneness, unity, commitment, sanctity of marriage bed and unconditional love to rule and reign; and let selflessness and forgiveness be abundant and overflowing in the home. Allow husbands and wives to show humility of spirit so that their prayers may be heard and not hindered. And give us humble and forgiving spirits towards one another that will reunite families and restore broken relationships.

Lord God, help Christian families model Christ and be a positive influence within the community so that our lifestyle will lead others to Christ. It’s in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus I humbly pray. Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford
