Heavenly Father, I come Praying for healing of the sick, uplifting of bowed down heads, comfort & peace for the broken hearted, deliverance for those bound by unholy habits and restoration of reprobate minds.

Jehovah Jirah, restore damaged relationships, reconcile broken marriages, and manifest your power and glory in ways that will mesmerize our minds!

Jehovah TSidkenu, transform harden hearts of stone into hearts of flesh and renew depraved minds….Lord, we desperately need a purging from sin and an outpouring of your Holy Spirit upon all Flesh!

Release Your ANOINTING and EMPOWER your people with AUTHORITY and HOLY BOLDNESS to kick in doors and break down walls in the Spiritual realm—For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, so build us up in our most Holy Faith as we fight this good fight! Overcoming the evil one by the blood🩸of the Lamb and the Word of our testimony of Christ Jesus in order to take back those things that the enemy has stolen…In the mighty Name of JESUS!

Oh Lord, help us to make an eternal difference for Christ here on earth—letting our Christ-Lights shine bright in this dark and sin soaked world! Hear this humble prayer, Oh Lord, and Show Us Your Glory! It’s in THAT NAME ABOVE ALL NAMES I PRAY—JESUS! Hallelujah and Amen!☝🏾🙌🏼🙏🏽~M. Ford

“For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ,” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5 ESV)

Heavenly Father, touch the hearts of those who are hurting with your finger of love; and replace their sorrow and despair with peace on today and hope for tomorrow. Soothe their pain, heal their heart ache.

No matter the reason for the pain and hurt, You Father, are the remedy. When they awaken place a smile in their spirit that will overshadow the sorrow and pain in their heart. And when they lay down at night, give them a peaceful sweet sleep, and bring them your joy with the morning light!

No matter the condition, situation or circumstance, Father, You alone know all about it; and you alone have the grace that suits every case!

Father, help each of your children to stay positive and keep the faith, even in the midst of trying times like these. Thank you, Father for being faithful…Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford

Heavenly Father, I come praying that the Peace of God will cover and embrace each of us as we go forward in Faith today—trusting in Your Holy Word and leaning not to our own understanding. Give us that peace which reassures us when we doubt; that settles our spirit in the midst of chaos; that comforts our soul in times of tribulation; that transcends all understanding; and that is incomprehensible to those who do not know you as Saviour and Lord.
Father God, I pray that THAT PEACE will stand guard over our hearts and our minds during these tumultuous times and give us a blessed assurance that can only come from completely trusting You!
Father GOD, hear my humble cry on this day for all those who SEEK Your PEACE and join in praying this Prayer. It’s in the sovereign name of Jesus I pray. Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

Father, help us this day to walk in Love—letting our Christ-lights shine ever so bright—so that the lost can find their way back to You, and the saved will be encouraged to run on just a little while longer!

Thank you, for giving us your Holy Spirit to teach us all things; to empower us when we are weak; correct us when we stray; and direct us in the right way!

Thank you, for your transforming power, your infallible word, and your loving kindness that reaches us when in the lowest valley or on the highest mountaintop!

“That Kind Of LOVE”

Heavenly Father, help us to seek Your Face with our whole hearts and not wonder from Your commandments; but to do what is just and right in your sight.

Help us to love mercy and to walk humbly with You, allowing the transforming power of The Blood🩸of Jesus to wash away our sins and cleanse us within.

Holy Spirit, prompt us to always pray fervently for the lost to be saved and for the saved to be transformed by the renewing of the mind. Help us to show sincere brotherly love for one another—the kind of love that runs from heart-to-heart and breast-to-breast; not finding it robbery to take the time to pray for one another and to show and share the love of Christ.

Thank you, Lord, for hearing and answering this humble prayer. Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Since by your obedience to the truth you have purified yourselves for a sincere love of the believers, [see that you] love one another from the heart [always unselfishly seeking the best for one another],” (1 Peter 1:22 AMP)

Heavenly Father, Thank You for your precious blood🩸that can wash away every guilty stain of sin. For You have commanded us to be Holy, just as you are Holy. Help your children to desire and SEEK after Your holiness and righteousness more than seeking after selfish pleasure and the things of this world. Stir up within us a burning desire to study and meditate on your Word—hiding your Word deep within our hearts, so that we will not sin against You. And when temptations come, we will have a solid foundation built upon your Word to help us live pure and holy—not yielding so easily to sin, lusts of the flesh, pride of life, and the wicked ways of this world.

Thank you, Father, for being forever faithful! It’s in the mighty and matchless Name above every name I humbly pray—JESUS! Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

“As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct”. (1 Peter 1:14-15)
