🎤🎶🎵 Sweet Hour of Prayer! Sweet Hour of Prayer! That calls me from a world of care; And bids me at my Father’s throne, Make all my wants and wishes known.
In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief, And oft escaped the tempter’s snare, By thy return, Sweet Hour of Prayer!🙏🏽🙌🏼☝🏾♥️🙏🏽
“And the smoke of the incense, with the prayers of the saints, ascended before God from the angel’s hand.” (Revelation 8:4)
GOD IS WORKING. This is an incubation season for many. God is using this time of pandemic to pull his people AWAY FROM many of the things of this world that so easily distract us from truly doing HIS WILL.
GOD IS WORKING. To bring about internal CHANGE, to pull us CLOSER TO HIMSELF, and to line us up with HIS DIVINE PLAN.
GOD IS WORKING. Don’t rush The Master as He WORKS to TRANSFORM the mundane into HIS MASTERPIECE.
GOD IS WORKING. The HEALING of our LAND requires PRUNING of the people. The pruning PROCESS is PAINFUL, but necessary to produces HEALING.
GOD IS WORKING. Your present PATH, and current PAIN has PURPOSE. Let GOD do HIS perfect WORK in you, so that He can do HIS perfect WILL through you.
GOD IS WORKING. Everything that START must STOP. What BEGAN will END. SEASONS CHANGE…Yet GOD remains the SAME.
GOD. IS. STILL. WORKING. 🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” (Galatians 6:9)
Heavenly Father, bless your children on today with GREATER! A greater capacity to Love. A greater capacity to FORGIVE. A greater capacity to encourage those we encounter every day. A greater capacity to show and share the hope of your deliverance and salvation as we let our Christ-light shine on those blinded by this present darkness.
Father God, equip, empower, appoint and anoint us for every good work. Our desire is to do GREATER for Your GLORY! It’s in the strong and mighty name of Jesus I pray and will forever praise—Amen🙏🏽~M. Ford

Heavenly Father, Allow your loving, healing PEACE to rest upon the hearts and minds of those who love you and are called according to your purpose. No matter the reason for the hurt they may be experiencing, or the nature of the illness plaguing their body, You Father, are the remedy. Soothe the physical pain, cool the burning fever, diminish the mental despair, and heal the hurt and heartache in those who are desperate for a touch from You!
Father, Allow Your PEACE to flow like rivers of living waters over the hearts and minds of those who have lost loved ones, battling sickness, struggling with depression or feeling distressed and pressed by the cares of life. Abolish every scheme, trick, trap, plot and plan of the enemy as we press forward in Victory!
Father, Help us to counteract every vain imagination with your Word! Place a smile within our spirit, release Joy deep within our soul and give us your perfect Peace that will overshadow all sorrow, pain, distress and unrest in our hearts. Allow your mercy and grace to flow and your peace that pass all understanding to rest upon the hearts and minds of those who put their trust in you!
Father, Help us to hold on through the dark days and nights, Keep the Faith, and not Faint. We have great expectations that you, Oh Lord, will bring us joy with the new dawning! Thank you, Father, for hearing and answering this humble prayer. It’s In the matchless name of Jesus I pray and praise you always…Amen.🙏🏽 M. Ford

“Then He arose and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, “Peace, be still!” And the wind ceased and there was a great calm. But He said to them, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?” (Mark 4:39-40)
Heavenly Father, I come praying for peace, love, unity, harmony and restoration within our homes, communities, cities, states, nation and world! I pray that our local and national leaders would not put their ultimate trust in financial leverage, human strategy, military strength or political power and influence to solve our problems—whether local, national or global difficulties; but rather put their hope, trust and faith in You who made the heavens and the earth by simply saying “Let there be”!
Father God, I pray that the hearts of the people, especially those in authority locally and nationally, will be turned back to You, and that the scriptures will once again guide our decision making and how we live daily. For you are the only light of hope we have in this present darkness and the only remedy for our sin sick world.
Father God, I pray that people of ALL colors, rich and poor alike, will seek to know You, The True & Living God, in the beauty of Your holiness! For you exercise loving kindness, righteousness and judgment, so help us to line up under your authority and operate within your sovereign will as we make daily decisions that impact our lives and others.
Oh God, there is nothing too hard for You! I humbly ask that you hear your children’s hearts cry and plea on this new day filled with Your new mercies as we Fast & Pray! In Jesus’ mighty name I pray and praise you always…Hallelujah and Amen!🙏🏽~M. Ford
“Thus says the LORD: “Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, Let not the mighty man glory in his might, Nor let the rich man glory in his riches; But let him who glories glory in this, That he understands and knows Me, That I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the LORD.” (Jeremiah 9:23-24)

“Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.” (I Corinthians 13:4-8)

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. (Matthew 6:31-34)
Heavenly Father, I come praying for protection, direction and refreshing of your people who are called by your name.

Heavenly Father, Your children are in dire need of your strength, deliverance, healing, confidence, comfort, and peace today. Many are fearful and facing trials and troubles that seem too much to bare and impossible to overcome.
Nevertheless, help us to always remember that you are STILL WORKING on our behalf because you alone are The Sovereign God! Lord, help us to realize that things are not always what they seem to be in the natural, because of what is taking place in the spiritual!
Open our spiritual eyes to see your hand working in every circumstance.
