Speaker 0I'm going to stop rambling and I'm going to jump into the prayer bit with you right now , in the name of Jesus . We're in the book of James , as I've said James , chapter 1 , verse 5 . If any of you lacks wisdom , you should ask God , who gives generously to all , who , without finding fault , and will give it to you . Lord , it is given . It is given in the name of Jesus . But right now , lord , father , we're weary , we're tired and we need help . Lord , as we search the face and the heart of God , lord , give us clarity when it feels uncertain . Give us stability when the waves feel wobbly . Lord , on this vessel that we are sailing on , lord , help us to find a safe place to land . In the name of Jesus , spirit of the Living God , we need you right now , lord . We need God's promise to give us wisdom generously .
Speaker 0Lord , I need to be wise . Lord , sometimes my little brain makes the wrong decisions and , Lord , I need you to help me to be wise in daily life applications . Father , give me wisdom , give me strength , give me biblical insight so I know how to act through the everyday life situation . Lord , spirit of the living God , I pray today that you will give us wisdom . Lord , as we pray through , we need guidance and wisdom . We need wisdom in decisions . We need clarity in confusion .
Speaker 0Lord , this comes up a lot , lord . I feel this in my spirit , lord , that I get a lot of fog when it comes , lord Jesus , to making decisions . Lord , I need clarity amongst confusion and stressful situations . I need guidance in uncertainty . I need to trust you more with my life . I need to surrender more and to lean into Jesus . But , lord , help me to trust in God's word and God's direction . Help me to wait in peace . Help me to wait patiently for the Lord , father in discouragement .
Speaker 0Lord , I pray that we will find the power of the Holy Spirit . Help me to make good lifestyle choices according to the word of God . Give me courage , lord , to follow God's way because , lord , I'm tired of the crowd . I can't keep walking the way the world is walking . Lord , I can't keep being herded along by culture , by social media . I'm tired of social media . God , I'm tired of following the crowd . Lord , I'm going nowhere with social media . I'm going nowhere in the crowd .
Speaker 0Lord , I've lost my purpose . I've lost my character in the crowd and in the WhatsApp group and in the rubbish that I get involved in . Lord , I need freedom in the name of Jesus . Lord , will you break the addiction of social media ? Will you break the addiction of just watching nothing but Lord , social media ? Lord , help us , lord , give us wisdom , help us to be strong in the name of just watching nothing but Lord , social media ? Lord , help us , lord , give us wisdom , help us to be strong .
Speaker 0In the name of Jesus , lord , I pray right now that you will help me to make a real , serious lifestyle choice through the word of God . Lord , I will pause and I will pray James 1.5 , and I will ask God for wisdom and I will expect an answer from our God . I will expect an answer from my King , because my King is Jesus . My King is the savior of the world . My King is El Shaddai .
Speaker 0Jehovah Jireh , jehovah Nissi , jehovah Shalom , jehovah Nissi . You are my healer , you are my banner , you are my rock , you are my shield , you are my guide , you are the potter , lord , you are the master . Lord , you got me in your hands . You got us in your hands . Lord , keep us on the potter's wheel , shape us , mold us into the vessels that we need to be . Spirit of the living God . As we pray through the book of James , lord , we need anointing today , we need power today , we need stability . Today , lord , I lack wisdom and I need more . So , lord , my prayer is for each and every one of us . Lord , if we lack wisdom , according to James , chapter one , verse five , if we lack wisdom , we should ask God , who gives generously to all those without finding fault , and it will be given to you . Let's ask God , father , in this close , give me wisdom . That simple God . That is it . Jesus . Give me wisdom in Jesus' name . Amen . Wherever you are today , thank you for joining me here . Live in London , england . My name is Reverend Ben Cooper . Until tomorrow , god bless .
