Just take a couple of minutes if you can in the busy schedule that you have, whether you're on a school run, whether you're on a commute run, wherever you are, may the glory rest on your shoulders. We're in the Psalms of David, the prayers of David, Psalm 23, verse 4. I will fear no evil. Come on, church. Come on, my brothers and sisters. Let's tell the devil that he's a liar. The prayers of David, we need courage and protection as we're in the valley. You know, I'm gonna fear no evil. The prayers of David are with us. We got courage, we got protection, we got the blood of Jesus over our lives, and the scripture that I'm gonna read is Psalm 23,
verse 4. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me, your rod and your staff, they comfort me. Lord, you're giving us comfort in the valley. Lord, we're on a walkthrough. Father, we thank you that the shadow of death cannot touch us. Lord, that we are blessed and highly favored, wonderfully and fearfully made, that the power, the glory, the anointing, the love of God is over our lives. We are experiencing, Lord God, end days at this moment. We are experiencing persecution. So as we walk through the valley, the valley of the financial press, the valley of being scared, the valley of fear, the valley of doubt, the valley, dear God, of uncertain days, Lord, we pray for those that are going through the valley, dear God, of that hard word to talk about suicide. All those that are feeling suicidal, all those that are feeling like the end has come, Lord, and they got nowhere to go. Father, we pray for those that are in the valley of darkness, and Lord, that you will protect them, that you will draw them away from their thoughts, that they will know that their Redeemer lives, and because he lives, they can face tomorrow. God, we need your power on those that are carrying mental health, those that are walking through the darkest valley of mental health, ADHD, the fears, the worries, the doubts of life. Father, we pray for those that are experiencing panic attacks, sheer fear in their life. They just feel that darkness is over them. Father, I pray that even though we walk through, will you tell them tonight, this morning or this afternoon,
wherever they are right now, that they're walking through the valley and the God that they serve is with them. Lord, I pray, Lord, as we pray the prayers of David, Psalm 23, verse 4, even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil. Lord, I'm scared, but I'm not going to allow it. Lord, I'm worried, but I'm not going to allow it. Lord, for you are with me. Lord, we need your presence in the valley. Lord, your presence is key. Your presence is the way. Your word is the way. The Bible says that Jesus is the way, the truth, the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. But Lord, we've got obstacles. Lord, we got barriers. We got Goliaths. We've got Red Seas. We got Jerichos. Lord, we got River Jordans to cross. Lord, we got the plains of Jericho to get across. Lord, we're in the wilderness. We're tired. We're exhausted. We need the hand of God in our lives. So wherever we are, Father, as we walk through the darkest valley, we fear no evil, for you are with us. Your rod and your staff. They comfort us. Lord, I thank you for Psalm 23, verse 4. I pray, Lord, for a great awakening. I pray for a great awakening in the valley. Lord, even though it's dark, Lord, put the lights on. Even though it's dark through the valley, through the darkest valley, put the lights on for us in the name of Jesus. Lord, and what I mean by that, Lord, let our light shine. Help us to let our light shine in the valley of the shadow of death. Help us to keep walking. Lord, you tell us through Psalms 119, 105, your word is a lamp unto our feet, a light for our path. So Lord, even though we walk through the valley, we got your word, we got your strength, we got your mercy, we got your grace, we got the power of the Holy Spirit. And today, Lord, I ask you, Lord,
freedom from fear, protection from evil, courage in dark times. Lord, all those that are in dangerous zones, give them freedom, peace in a crisis. Lord, we trust in God's presence. Lord, as we walk through the valley, that we're going to walk through in faith. We got strength, Lord, in the spiritual battles. Give us comfort, dear God, in fearful days. Lord, thank you for your rest and your protection. But right now, we call it aloud now. Lord, that we speak this aloud. We want to hear the power of God. When when fear whispers, we want to hear the power of the word of God. When your word speaks, Lord, we thank you that fear goes, it melts like wax. Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray right now that we will make this a life application, Lord, that aloud we will shout this aloud. Faith is found in the word of God. And I pray, Lord, that we will grow in our faith. And you alone, you alone are our rock and our redeemer. So today, Lord, we declare the word, we speak the word over our lives, we bring the word to our lives. We get to the cross of Calvary. We're bloodwashed, sanctified, we're children of the living God. And I pray for the listeners wherever they are today, at this hour, that we will have no more fear, that we have protection and faith like we never thought possible. Come, Holy Spirit, restore us. Let there be a great awakening in our lives today. Thank you for joining me today. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. May the Lord bless you and keep you. We'll see you tomorrow. God bless.
