Father God, I come praying for the unchurched and the unsaved. Oh Lord, send REVIVAL throughout this land with seasons and extended seasons of people turning their lives over to Christ and the unchurched flocking back to the house of prayer in droves!

Release a spirit of prayer, praise and worship throughout every church open in your Name! Raise up a remnant of believers who are truly Christ-Seekers—those desiring more of Jesus than of this world!

Compel believers to seek hard after more of You, Oh God—turning away from those things that dishonor Your Name and running swiftly into Your Presence where they will find peace and power to live holy!

Thank you for being faithful to all who put their trust in you. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray and praise you always! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Ford

Father GOD, we lift up prayers for our legislative government, nation, administration/presidency and military branches on today.

Grant godly wisdom, knowledge and understanding to leaders throughout the world, on both national and local levels, regarding laws passed and actions taken to protect the citizens they serve.

I pray for a spirit of peace and hope to spread globally as Your people, who are called by Your name, rise up and live out their faith in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation. For you, Oh Lord, have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind.

Thank You, Father, for being our hope and help in this time of uncertainty and global chaos. Fill our hearts completely with your joy, peace and love as we put all of our hope and trust in You!

It’s in the strong and matchless name of Jesus I pray and will always give you praise…Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
