Words of Encouragement Blog

Heavenly Father, I pray that Christians all over the world will find true delight in YOU being Lord of their lives! I pray that believers will seek Your Will over their own way in ALL things, especially in times of crisis such as these, so that generations to come may see how we prevailed and overcame through the power of The Holy Ghost, and by the word of our testimony; and they too will find their strength and hope also in Elohim—The true and living God!

Father God, teach us to use our time wisely, redeeming the time, so that we might accomplish every good work for Your glory! I pray that believers will commit and dedicate time to studying Your Word, Worshiping and Praying together and with our families in our homes in order to make our own homes truly A House Of Prayer where The Spirit of The Lord dwells!

Father God, I pray that non-believers all over the world will turn to You for salvation and deliverance. Oh God, that many unbelievers will be saved in droves—coming into Your saving grace, believing and trusting that we truly can live more abundant lives in Christ Jesus!

Lord, Jehovah God, turn us away from desires to constantly feed our fleshly appetites with unholy entertainment, superficial endeavors and worldly pleasures! Help us to stop seeking after the things of this world and to start seeking hard after You—Seeking Your face in steadfast prayer and fasting so that You will pour out your spirit over this land, country and world in ways unimaginable!

Father God, I plead the blood of Jesus over our children, churches, finances, families, marriages, health, homes, communities, nation and world—fervently praying that You, Oh Lord, will increase our believing faith in YOUR ability to intervene supernaturally and HEAL OUR LAND! Holy Spirit—MOVE LIKE NEVER BEFORE…IN THE MIGHTY & MATCHLESS NAME OF JESUS…AMEN!🙏🏽~M. Ford

Father God…I come crying out for our children! I Pray for our young children, youth, and young adults…that they will be clothed in humility, respectful to elders, one another, and to others they encounter. I pray they exhibit proper behavior at all times and have respect for themselves as being created and loved by a Holy God who loves them beyond measure! I pray that a generation of young strong Prayer Warriors will rise up out of these ashes of moral decay and proclaim their faith and commitment to El Elyon—Our Most High God—always lifting their concerns up to God in prayer, and trusting Him to exalt them in due season! I Pray that our children will find it an honor and blessing to remain sexually pure, morally sound, and abstaining from premarital sexual activity—realizing the unique gift and treasure they have in this earthen vessel!

Father God, I pray for parents to see the present and eternal value in dedicating their children 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 Lord!  I Pray for godly parents who will train up their children in the Word of God—teaching their sons and daughters to love Jesus at an early age so that they might be saved and live for Christ—producing godly individuals and leaders that will obey God’s Commandments and represent Him well in all arenas of life.

Elohim! Hear my humbly cry on this day as we fast & pray! It’s in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ I pray and give Him all the glory! Amen 🙏🏽~M. Mary

Jehovah Rapha, We come crying out on one accord for the healing of our land! I pray for health and wellness for those who are bound with illness, and for deliverance and peace for those whose minds are gripped by fear, anxiety, stress and depression. Loose those entangled by Satan’s grip and free up your people from every weight so they can rise in victory and soar to greater heights in you!

Sovereign God, I pray for the healing, protection and deliverance for the people of Ukraine. Lord, send a mighty shaking and awakening throughout their land that will brake loose and set the captives free—physically, mentally and spiritually, in the mighty name of Jesus!  Help every man, woman, boy and girl across this sin-soaked world to turn from their wicked ways and cry out to You from a sincere heart. Abba, Your saving grace is what is needed for all who seek you with all their hearts. Selah. 

El Shaddai, give us a heart for the things that break your heart! Help us to see the things of this world as you see them. Give us ears that will hear your still small voice, even when the world is full of chaotic noise. Give us hearts that will ache to be cleansed from sin, and a hunger and thirst after your righteousness! Send your Holy Spirit like a consuming fire to sweep across this land until once again people will believe in their hearts and confess with their mouths that You alone are the True and Living Jehovah God!

Oh, Lord…hear our humble cry, in the mighty and matchless name of Jesus I pray and praise you always! Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

“And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when He had opened the book, He found the place where it was written: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed; To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” (‭‭Luke‬ ‭4:17-19‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

Heavenly Father, we realize that we are an imperfect people, living in an imperfect world; and often times we fall into Satan’s snares. We confess that many times we mess up and slip into various sin that devastate and rock our world.

So we ask, EVEN NOW, before we fall Father, that you help us to recognize and avoid Satan’s tricks, traps, tactics and snares! Help us to crucify this flesh daily–not yielding easily to sin, the lusts of our own flesh and the pride of life. Father, Strengthen us in our inner spiritual being so that we may live victorious lives in the natural—holy and acceptable in your sight!

Lord, Our desire is to live Holy—fulfilling every purpose and plan you have for our lives. Father, we ask that you search our hearts—take us from where we are now to where you want us to be. We yield our wills to Your perfect will—Have Your way in our lives!

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

“UNITY IN DIVERSITY”

Spiritual Gifts are not given to validate salvation or measure holiness, but rather to equip believers for calling. Every believer is endowed with at least one (or more) spiritual gift(s). The manifestation of spiritual gifts in the body of Christ are to be used to evangelize, edify and serve—not to gain accolades, social status, and worldly fame. Hear what The Spirit has to say to the Churches. Shalom🙏🏽~M Ford 

“There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all. But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to each one for the profit of all: for to one is given the word of wisdom through the Spirit, to another the word of knowledge through the same Spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healings by the same Spirit, to another the working of miracles, to another prophecy, to another discerning of spirits, to another different kinds of tongues, to another the interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.” (‭‭I Corinthians‬ ‭12:4-11‬)

Abba…We stand at the threshold of a new dawning, looking back at the things left behind us, and pressing past any current pains and problems. We stand on tiptoes of anticipation as we forge forward to those things you have promised to those who love you and are called according to your purpose!

Father God, today I pray this blessing on each of your children—May God’s Mercy overshadow you! May God’s Grace always cover you and His Presence walk with you! May His Peace be your pillow at night, and His Comfort rest upon you like sunshine on your face in the day! May His Love encamp around you and the fullness of His Joy overflow from you as you go! And…May worry and anxiety never call your house its home!

Now, unto HIM, who is able to Keep your steps from slipping and your feet from falling—The only wise, true, faithful and living God, I humbly submit this prayer. In the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus, Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford

“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.”‭‭(Ephesians‬ ‭3:20-21‬ ‭NKJV‬‬)

Father God, today my prayer is for those who are lost, hurting and need physical, emotional and spiritual healing and deliverance that can come only from You.

For we know not how or what we should pray, so Holy Spirit we invite you to pray through us, discerning our every moan and groan, and fulfilling our deepest heart’s desire.

Lord God, release you peace that pass all understanding where there is unrest; Comfort the hearts that are grieving; Unshackle the minds that are captive; and unleash those bound by unholy habits…In the Name of Jesus!

Father, send your ministering angels to bind up the broken hearted and set captives free, as the Holy Spirit draws those who are lost into a Close Encounter with The One who Saves…JESUS!

Lord God, endow us with wisdom, knowledge, understanding and discernment so that we are READY to perform every perfect work. Expand our territory so that we may be used by you to accomplish GREATER for Your Glory!

Thank you, Abba, for doing it…It’s in the mighty and matchless Name of Jesus I pray and praise…Amen.~M. Ford 🙇🏽‍♀️
