Reverend ben cooper , recorded live here in london , england , for your quick-fired five minutes time of prayer , renewal , encouragement and peace that runs along with the biblical truth . May god bless you and carry you in the mighty name of jesus . May the Holy Spirit fill you today , wherever you are across the world . We're going to dive straight into the Gospel of John , chapter 6 , verse 35 . If you can grab yourself a Bible , if you're on the run and I don't mean from the law , I mean if you're on the run wherever you are at this moment in time what I mean by that is if you're running down the shops , if you're jumping in your car , you're listening to this quick-fired five-minute prayer . Come on , let's get moving . So , as we are on the run of life , come on , let's pray wherever you are . May the spirit of the living God be over to you . Today we are in John 6 , verse 35 , and it says then Jesus declared I am the bread of life . Whoever comes to me will never go hungry and he who believes in me will never be thirsty . Sister and brother , the spirit of the Lord is over you today . We thank you for sharing everything that we do here . May God strengthen you and carry you . But we need more . We need more than what this world can offer us . We need more than what this situation of life can offer us . We need Jesus . Where do we find this ? Come on , let's get straight into prayer . Father , in the name of Jesus , we need you right now , lord . We need this .
Speaker 0John 6 , verse 35 . Lord , we need Jesus because you are the bread of life and we are hungry right now . So , lord , we are spiritually hungry for God's word . Lord , I didn't realize what I was hungry for , lord . I was trying to find fulfillment , lord , in my heart , in the world , lord , I was trying to find fulfillment in the situations around me when , lord , I wasn't seeking the Father's heart . So , lord , I was trying to find fulfillment in the situations around me when , lord , I wasn't seeking the Father's heart . So , lord , I want to thank you , now that you are the bread of life , that you are Lord , and you will sustain me right now .
Speaker 0In the name of Jesus , lord , I thank you that Christ says through the Gospel of John 6 , verse 35, . Jesus declares I am the bread of life . Whoever comes to me will never go hungry . Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty . Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty . Lord , I can't go hungry anymore . Lord , I've been feeding myself from the world and , lord , I haven't been living right , I haven't been walking right , I haven't been thinking right , I haven't been looking right .
Speaker 0Spirit of the living God , will you sweep the yeast out of our lives ? Lord , you are the bread of life and , lord , we come to you and you tell us that man doesn't live on bread alone , but by every word that perceives out of the mouth of God , spirit of the living God , as we search the father's heart today , as we search and ransack the word of God , I pray that we will feel the presence and the love of Jesus Christ . And as we are looking now for spiritual hunger , as we are looking for daily bread , as we come to you for God's provision , as we are looking , lord , for eternal satisfaction in Christ , lord , when we are weak , lord , help us to be strong . So today , lord , through this prayer time , lord , we look to you , we walk with you . We're hungry right now . Lord , we need this John 6 , verse 35 in our lives . So , father , we pray that you will make a way where there seems to be no way .
Speaker 0Lord , we pray for spiritual hunger , for God's word . We pray for our daily bread in God's provision . We pray , lord , that you will provide . Lord , that you will make a way where there seems to be no way . Lord , we pray that we will find this satisfaction , lord in Christ , this fulfillment , this eternal calling that we will find . Lord , that we are feeling at peace with ourselves . Lord , help us , lord , as we are searching , as we are looking . Give us strength when feeling spiritually empty . Father , for those that feel empty today , those , lord , that are looking for spiritual fulfillment in the wrong areas of the world , father , we pray that you will guide our paths , lord , that you will guide our feet , that you will guide our vision , you will guide our heart . Spirit of the living God , we pray that we will not look to the world , but we will look to Jesus , because God's daily provision is enough .
Speaker 0In the name of Jesus , spirit of the living God , I pray , lord , for families to be nourished by the word of God . I pray , lord , for the contentment in Jesus alone . Lord , it is only Jesus . Jesus says I am the way , the truth , the life . No one comes to the Father except through me . So , lord , we got hope and we got the promises of God . So , lord , today will you sustain us in the word ? Will you carry us ? Lord , you are the bread of life and you are all what we need . You are all that we require . Father , let the Holy Spirit sweep through our hearts today . Let the joy of the Lord be our strength .
Speaker 0Today , lord , we are looking , lord , for fulfillment through the word of God . Lord , it is time for us to eat . It is time for us to declare the Lord . Help us , lord , as this life application scripture unfolds . Lord , help us to realize that Jesus Christ is the bread of life and he fills me forever . It is the word that sustains me , it is the power of the Holy Spirit that leads me . It is your glory , it is your mercy , it is your favor .
Speaker 0Spirit of the living God , wherever we are today , will you help us and will you carry us , lord ? Will you set the captives free , wherever we are , lord , I thank you for the brothers and sisters , I thank you for the listeners across the world , but as we pray through John 6 , verse 35 , lord , we thank you that Jesus Christ declares I am the bread of life . Whoever comes to be , will never be hungry . Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty . Lord , we can't be thirsty . We can't be hungry . Lord , we can't be thirsty , we can't be hungry . Lord , we are in a famine . The nation in which we are in we are in a famine period .
Speaker 0Spirit of the living God , will you sustain us , father ? We thank you , lord , that we've been able to gather for prayer today around the word of God . Lord , as we've locked shields of faith , as we stood together , as we prayed together , lord , as we've believed together that the word of God is the bread of life . Thank you , father , in Jesus' glorious name , amen . May the spirit of the Lord be over you today . Thank you for joining me today . My name is Reverend Ben Cooper .
