I shall rejoice and be glad and , father , I thank you that you are giving me courage in anxious times . When fear is rising , lord , I crush it in the name of Jesus , because of the blood of the Lamb . And , father , I pray for strength , lord , in global uncertainty . Today , when , lord , I look across the platform of the world and , lord , it frightens me . But , lord , I thank you , my faith shall be stronger today . And , lord , we also pray , lord , that fear , fear , lord , when it rises at night , oh God , in the name of Jesus , lord , I'm not having it , no more . In the name of Jesus . Fear at night , fear in the middle of the , in the night , lord , and especially in the morning , lord , that's where I suffer . Lord , you know that I wake up very anxious and tired , and even exhausted after getting a few hours sleep . So , father , I pray that every one of us that has night tremors , lord , that you will deal with that .
Speaker 0In the name of Jesus , we pray for courage for leaders that are facing difficult choices . We pray for boldness as we are witnesses to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords . As we live our lives , lord , we will be strong and courageous . We will not be afraid , for the Lord , thy God , will be with you wherever you go . Wherever you go , the God above all gods , the King above all Kings , is with you today , as you go to work , as you face trials and tribulations , the spirit of the Lord is over you .
