Jehovah Tsidkenu, God of our righteousness, the One who sits high and looks low! I come praying for a contrite and broken spirit among believers as we become more and more aware of sin in our society, community, homes, churches, nation and world!

Open our spiritual eyes to the real truth of the wickedness of this present age and hear our one accord response as we cry out to Yahweh in prevailing prayer for true REVIVAL and HEALING in our LAND!

Thank you, Abba, for hearing and answering this prayer. It’s in the mighty Name of Jesus I PRAY and PRESS ON…Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford

“For this is what the high and exalted One says—He who lives forever, whose name is holy: “I live in a high and holy place, but also with the one who is contrite and lowly in spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.” (Isaiah 57:15)

Heavenly Father, We realize that we are indeed living in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation; nevertheless, help those who are called by your name to take hold of the responsibility to live blamelessly before a lost and watching world.

Help us to not yield to temptations, nor fall prey to the lusts of our own flesh, but walk in the spirit—allowing our Christ-lights to shine bright in the darkness of this world. Lead and guide us into your perfect Will as we submit and surrender to the promptings of the Holy Spirit daily.

Thank you, Father, for loving us past our faults. Strengthen us in our weakest hour, renew our hope, and fortify our Faith so that we sore like an Eagle above our trials and temptations into Victory—accomplishing every good work for your glory!

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

“I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.” (Galatians 5:16-17)

Heavenly Father, help your children to be persistent in prayer, unwavering in your word, and ever ready to fight the good fight of faith!

I pray that you endow the saints with courage and perseverance to rise up and wage war against the enemy on our knees! Raise up a remnant of true believers that will be fearless and faithful; casting off every vain imagination, pride of life, unholy habits, and wicked ways until the day of your return.

Anoint us with power, authority and with holy boldness to stand steadfast and unwavering in our faith in perilous times such as these; No longer bound and defeated by political correctness, social status, and worldly ways.

Raise up Warriors willing to persevere in fasting and prayer until we reclaim our families, communities, nation and world for Christ!

Hear my humble cry, Oh God, and heal our Land! It’s in Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise always! Amen 🙏🏽

Heavenly Father, Jehovah-Nissi…Our banner of protection! I come praying for our children—for many are being killed, kidnapped, abused, molested, sold into sex trafficking, addicted to drugs, caught up in gang violence, dropping out of school, running away from home…and the list goes on and on!😪🙏🏽

Lord God Almighty, El Shaddai, You alone are their defense against the demonic forces of this age. We come pleading the Blood🩸of JESUS over our children for their protection and covering everywhere they may go!

From newborn babies to teens, and even our young adults, Lord God, we pray for their soul salvation at an early age—that they will grow in your grace and wisdom, learning to love Jesus with their whole hearts♥️!

I pray for godly parents who will train up their children in the Word—dedicating them to the Lord and setting a pattern for them of seeking the Lord in all things so that the younger generations may find strength and hope in the Lord!

Father God, release a spirit of knowledge, discernment and understanding upon our children so that they will excel in school, make godly decisions, be clothed in humility, respectful to elders and to one another—exhibiting proper behavior at all times that will bring glory and honor to You, Our God.

Endow our children with the wisdom and faith to always lift their concerns up in prayer to You, God Omnipotent—trusting You to exalt them in due season. Help them to remain sexually pure and to recognize marriage as a sacred covenant; seeking Your Will for them in a life-long mate and not be driven by the lusts of their flesh.

Raise up godly leaders in our children that will obey Your Word and represent You well in all arenas of life. This is my prayer for our children and our Children’s children throughout all generations…In Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise always… Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

Father God, I come Praying for all Pastors across this world. Give them preaching power to rightly discern and deliver your Word with power, authority and clarity today and every time they stand in Your Name.

Anoint them so that they will speak, teach and preach The Word of God—not adding to nor taking away, but steadfastly declaring the undiluted Truth!

I pray that as Your Word goes forth during this season lost souls will come to Christ in droves; Christians will be Totally Surrendered and Committed to Living Holy; and that Lives will be Transformed and Changed forever after experiencing a close life-altering encounter with Elohim!

By the power of the blood🩸of Jesus, who is The Christ—sinners will be saved, saints will be edified and You, Jehovah, will be glorified! It’s in Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise always…Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

Walk with us through the valley of sorrow and guide us to the mountaintop of joy!

Jehovah-Tsidkenu, God of our Righteousness, send A Fresh Wind 💨 and Fresh Fire 🔥 that Consumes the atmosphere so that the lost will be saved and the saved will prevail in these evil days—empowered to do greater works for Your glory!

Oh Lord…Our God…Omnipotent! 🙌🏼

Jehovah-M’Kaddesh…We need the sanctifying and healing power of your shed blood🩸to flow throughout this Land!

For we know that we are living in a time of world crisis, chaos, confusion and deception—where evil👿 is called good and good😇 is called evil. Demonic spirits are prevailing in a world that has chosen lustful pleasures, monetary gain, arrogant pride, and rise to power & fame over showing and sharing the Love of Christ and living Holy.♥️🙏🏽

In times like these we need Your Holy Spirit to fall fresh upon us!🔥🙌🏼🙏🏽

Lord God, I pray that those who know, love and adore You all around the world will rise up and serve you with joy and gladness…withholding nothing, not grudgingly nor with double mindedness, but with righteousness, spiritual attitudes of gratitude, and totally operating in the anointing and power of the Holy Spirit!

I pray that the purifying power of the Holy Spirit will ignite a fierce fire 🔥 in your people who are called by your Name so that our lifestyles will line up with your Word and will be a sweet aroma of worship unto You!

This is my heart’s cry on this day…It’s in Jesus’ mighty and matchless name I pray and praise always…Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

Jehovah Shalom…I come interceding on behalf of those standing in need of Your perfect peace in their life today. There are so many of your children hurting and dealing with every issue under the sun. Nevertheless, We know you can mend broken hearts and bring peace and comfort to those bereaved; revive and restore broken relationships; breath new life into dead marriages; bring order to dysfunctional families; Heal those who are sick; bring clarity of mind to those confused and misguided by the enemy; give hope to the hopeless, unveil blinded eyes of the lost, and give courage and confidence to those called by Your name!

Abba Father, Thank you for your new mercies today! I’m so grateful for Your grace and so thankful for your favor!

I come interceding for all those in need of deliverance…Deliver your children who are suffering from sickness/ disease, stress/ anxiety, oppression/ depression, helplessness/ hopelessness, fear and despair.

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. We cast off every form of unrighteousness and yield our total being—Mind, Body, Soul, Spirit, to your transforming grace—You are the Potter and we are the clay! Lord, help us to trust you and walk in holiness day-by-day! Bless us, so that we might be blessings to others.

Strengthen us, so that we might be strong even in our weakest hour! Grow your love, joy and peace in our hearts, so that it will overflow onto others as we go! Help our light of salvation to shine on others as a living testimony so they will see YOU and know the true love of Christ. GREAT IS YOUR FAITHFULNESS UNTO US!

Thank you, Jesus, for your shed blood that allows us to walk in freedom from the bondage of sin! Hallelujah and Amen.🙏🏽~M. Ford
