Heavenly Father, Increase our believing faith in your ability to intervene supernaturally and do the impossible, even in this time of world crisis.
I pray that as we SEEK YOUR FACE, that in response You will pour out your spirit in ways unimaginable!
Jehovah Tswana—The Lord our Warrior! Empower us to rise up and continuously wage war against the enemy on our knees—No longer bound and defeated by political correctness, social status, and worldly ways!
Fortify us mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually as we willing persevere in prayer and fasting until we reclaim our families, marriages, children, schools, communities, nation and world for Christ!
Hear our one accord prayers, Oh Lord, and Heal Our Land! In Jesus’ mighty, matchless and miraculous name I pray! Amen 🙏🏽 ~M. Ford
God’s Word is unfolding before our very eyes. These are chaotic and difficult times at best—Times that will try Men’s souls. Pandemic diseases unleashed at alarming rates, while various other “natural” disasters consistently climb. Corruption and debauchery throughout our land—everyday the boundaries of sin are being pushed further and further. People are being brainwashed into accepting WRONG as RIGHT by the cultural pressure of society and subliminal messages of a crocked and perverse generation are causing the unaware to slip further and further into the abyss of sin and immorality.
Nevertheless, this time of testing has PURPOSE. Be not deceived; God is not mocked. According to His Word, there will be dangerous times of great stress and trouble; difficult days that may be hard to bear. People will be lovers of themselves (self-focused/selfish), lovers of money (greed), boastful, prideful, abusive, disobedient, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control (immoral), brutal, haters of good, treacherous, rash, conceited, and most of all lovers of sensual pleasure rather than lovers of God—having a FORM of godliness (outward appearance) but denying its power (religion without relationship) for their conduct (behavior) nullifies their FAITH.
God’s Word warns us to have nothing to do with such people and stay far away from them! They are the kind of people who worm their way into our homes and churches…gaining control over the gullible, morally weak, and spiritually immature, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires and impulses, always learning (listening to anybody who will teach them) but never able to come to a knowledge of THE TRUTH of GOD’S WORD.
But as for the true Christians, continue steadfastly in what you have learned and have become convinced of (the Truths of God’s Word), because you know those from whom you learned it (Truth Teachers), and how from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through Faith in Christ Jesus. (2 Timothy 3:1-9, 14-15; Romans 10:9-10. Paraphrased)
Therefore, STOP—DROP—PRAY for this World 🌎 TODAY as we Fast & Pray!🙇🏾♂️🙇🏽♀️ God’s Word is right and true…Jesus will return in the blink of an eye—Are You Watching? Will You be READY? Now is the appointed time to…Humbly Submit, Pray without ceasing, Fervently SEEK the Father’s FACE, and LIVE HOLY. (2 Chronicles 7:14). Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
Little things can make a big impact in our lives. When you consider the mouth👄in comparison to other parts of the human anatomy, it may not seem as significant—but it is a powerful thing.
Likewise, the tongue 👅 can be used for good or evil—to bring joy or pain. Together they can be used as instruments for uplifting and encouraging or they can be dastardly and devastating to others based upon the “words” that come out of your mouth👄.
The Apostle James says, “If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body” (James 3:2).
Therefore, as you self-reflect on your verbal history, how have you used your mouth/tongue lately?
Perhaps in praise, prayer, encouragement, motivation, and blessings? Or, to praise our Lord and Savior for His sovereign omnipotence?
Maybe you have used your “words” as a secret weapon when you’ve gotten into verbal arguments—to tear down, curse and crush people—those people who were created in God’s likeness. Or, you’ve formulated poisonous words to strike back at someone who you feel has wronged you?
The Bible says praises and curses coming from the same mouth ought not happen. The old adage “sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never harm me” is the farthest thing from the truth. Those little words that seem to be small in size can pack a big punch!
Words can—and do—destroy relationships and lives. Therefore, as children of The Most High God, think about the power of the “spoken word”as it relates to building up one another. In other words….Speak No Evil!🙊🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Don’t use foul or abusive language. Let everything you say be good and helpful, so that your words will be an encouragement to those who hear them.” (Ephesians 4:29)
Different vessels are used for different purposes. What God has for YOU to DO in this NEW season will take something NEW for you to accomplish.
The trials, tribulations and troubles you’re going through (or went through) are NOT meant to “BREAK YOU”, BUT SENT TO “MAKE YOU”!
The Potter is MAKING YOU OVER into a VESSEL FIT FOR SUCH A TIME AS THIS! Don’t rush the process, just TRUST The Master’s Plan—You’re in the RIGHT hands!🆕😇🙏🏽~M. Ford
“And the vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter’s hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as it seemed good to the potter to do.” (Jeremiah 18:4)
Jehovah Tsidkenu—God of our Righteousness! I come Praying for the children, youth and young adults as they return to school. I pray that they will be clothed in humility, respectful to elders and one another, exhibit proper behavior at all times and always lift their concerns up to You in prayer; trusting You to exalt them in due season.
I Pray that they remain sexually pure and that they come to know you through salvation at an early age. Raise up godly leaders in our young adults so that they will be beacons of light for their generation in this dark world! Help them to obey Your Word and represent You well in all arenas of life.
I Pray that godly school administrators, principals, teachers and support staff will rise up and be a light for Christ as they bring prayer and God’s Word back into our schools, colleges, and universities.
I Pray for godly parents who will train up their children in the Word—dedicating them to the Lord, and setting a pattern of seeking the Lord in all things so that the younger generations may find strength and hope in the name of Jesus!
Hear our prayers for our children on this day, Oh Lord! It’s in the righteous name of Jesus I humbly pray. Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Train up a child in the way he should go, And when he is old he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6 NKJV)
The Urban Dictionary describes a back-to-school necklace as “another name for a noose. This is due to the utter despair you feel when school starts back up again.” Some examples of how it’s used by the youth includes: “I’m about to buy my back-to-school necklace,” “I can’t wait to get a back-to-school necklace,” “Thinking about that back-to-school necklace,” “That back-to-school necklace is calling me,” “I can’t wait to wear my back-to-school necklace,” etc. So, although a back-to-school necklace sounds innocent enough to those “unaware” of its real meaning, it is actually a cry for help as it’s a code for death by hanging.💔😢🙏🏽
Father God, help every parent to become aware of, and educated on the meaning of this term, so that they are in a better position to help their children and others. Abba, help every child to understand his/her value and self-worth, so they will not believe the enemy’s lies. Jehovah Shalom, give the children your peace that pass all understanding that will guard their hearts and their minds in ChristJesus. I pray for our children all around the globe to exchange “the noose” for “The Cross” this school year….IJMMN!Amen🩸🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, The fruit of the womb is a reward.” (Psalms 127:3 NKJV)
The Father will allow your difficulties and delays to last only a season. There is a limit to the delays and sufferings in your life. Remember, Satan’s power over Job was even limited by God; and the story of Hannah’s heartache can attest that delays are not denials as she dedicated her long awaited for son, Samuel, back to the Lord.
The lesson to be learned here is this—God will use even the difficulties and delays in your life to complete His perfect work “IN” you in order to accomplish His purpose and perfect Will “THROUGH” you.
Don’t let the Subtlety of the enemy deceive you; nor the Devil’s relentless assaults turn you around! Your appointed time of BREAKTHROUGH is at hand—YOU JUST STAND!☝🏾🙏🏽~M. Ford

“I waited patiently for the LORD; And He inclined to me, And heard my cry. He also brought me up out of a horrible pit, Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock, And established my steps. He has put a new song in my mouth” (Psalms 40:1-3)
Jehovah Tsaba, Lord our Warrior, Be our battle ax as we war in the spiritual realms today in prayer and fasting!
Abolish every scheme, trick, trap, plot and plan of the enemy as we counteract every vain imagination with your Word, send up Judah perpetually, and pray without ceasing!
Thank you, ABBA, that strong holds will be broken, people will be healed, relationships restored and our faith in your sovereign ability to do the impossible will be strengthened beyond our imagination! For this we KNOW…In all things we are more than conquerors in Christ Jesus…We have the VICTORY! Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written: “For Your sake we are killed all day long; We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.” (Romans 8:35-37 NKJV)
Father God, Let your Favor fall upon every person praying in agreement with this prayer.
May the presence of Jehovah Shalom go before me, be with me, and encamp all around me each and every day.
May the Holy Spirit empower me to do GOD’s Will and May the works of my hands be abundantly blessed.
May GOD’s grace abide over me and my family; and May His mercy, peace and love pave my path as I go.
May my hands be ever ready to do the work of the ministry, my feet be quick to walk in obedience to the Word, my ears be in tune with GOD’s voice, my eyes stay fixed on the prize of the high calling, and my heart remain totally surrendered and committed to Elohim.
Father GOD, Empower and equip me for such a time as this—all to bring YOU glory and honor! By The Blood🩸of The Lamb that was shed and in the all powerful Name of Jesus The Christ…IT IS SO! Amen, Amen, Amen!🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford
