Thank you for joining us today on our daily Christian prayer podcast with myself, Reverend Van Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Thank you for joining us for these quick-fired, five-minute commuter prayers as we press into the scripture, as we hold on to the word of God, and we want to tell you whatever nation you're living in, wherever you are at this moment in time, we just want to pray that God will bless Nigeria, that the Lord will move through Nigeria
today. We pray that there will be revival in Africa, and today will be the day where Nigeria sees the power of the Holy Spirit, and Africa will be saved in the name of Jesus. That God's protection over Africa, that faith and hope across Nigeria, Spirit of the Living God. The Christian prayer today is for Africa to be in revival. The daily African Prayer Podcast, welcome to those that listen wherever you are. We're praying for Nigeria today, that there will be strengthening, that there will be power for the strength and a revival presence of God in Africa. Please, God, move. You know, sister and brother, we try and pray for different nations. You know, we will capture your nation as soon as we can, but may the Spirit of the living God
carry you. Colossians 3, verse 12. Clothe yourself with compassion. A prayer for patience, kindness, and relationships. This is what the Bible says in Colossians 3, verse 12. Therefore, as God's chosen people, holy and beloved people, close yourself with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness. Galatians 5, 22. Oh Jesus, in the stillness, I want to pray, Father, that I will walk in patience. I will have kindness. I will be forgiving. Lord, I will have freedom in Jesus. I will know that my Redeemer lives, and because he lives, I can face tomorrow. But Lord, I want to walk in holy, devotional love. I want to realize that I am clothed with compassion and kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Because you tell us that therefore as God's chosen people, so this has to be on the
skin that we walk in. This has to be divine. This has to be with us wherever we are right now. And Lord, we ask you that patience will rise, kindness will come. The prayer for the family healing. We pray for calm, Lord, and forgiveness. Lord, we ask you, dear God, that around the globe today, as people are searching for hope and anointing, Lord, that the word of God commands, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Lord, we thank you that the Holy Spirit is alive. We thank you that the Holy Spirit is in each and every one of us. We thank you that the gifts and the fruit of the Spirit is alive and well in every one of us. And we're praying for kindness. Kindness, Lord, is love in action. In every home, every life, every tribe, every tongue, in every workspace, God is calling his people to wear heavenly characters. So Lord, I want to wear the character of Jesus. I want to wear the cloak of righteousness. Lord, I want to stay kind and stay calm. Lord, I'm working behind the scenes right now, Lord. I'm working right behind those areas, Lord, where no one sees in my life. Lord, I want to hear the whisper and the Spirit
of God whispering, Ben, don't give up. Sister and brother, through this quiet time, this prayer time today, I pray that you will hear the whisper of God and the gentleness of heaven speaking to you wherever you are. And the strength of God and patience will come. And there will be a stirring in your heart of divine compassion. Right now, I pray for patience in stressful situations and relationships. I pray for kindness towards those who test our love, healing in families and friendships, grace to forgive quickly and fully. Yes, Lord. Gentleness in speech and attitude, humility in leadership and serving. Lord, we want the Holy Spirit calm and anger and frustration to go at the name of Jesus. Lord, I want compassion towards the hurting and forgotten. Unite the body of Christ through kindness. But Lord, we give you thanks today for God's love and his patience over our lives. Lord, we want to make this a life application. We want to tell the world, patience builds peace. Kindness turns conflict into connection. So Lord, we want to turn the conflict into a connection. We want to turn, dear God, the battlefield, into a place of holiness. So Lord, I thank you that I declare, we declare to the listeners and to the world today that we make a public declaration. I am clothed with compassion, patience, and kindness. I reflect the heart of Christ in every movement. Lord, I love that. I reflect the heart of Christ in every movement. But Lord, let us do that. Father, I thank you for all the listeners wherever they are, scattered across the world, from Israel to Nigeria, from Nigeria to the UK, from the UK to Hong Kong, China, all the way through Asia and the Middle East. Father, Lord, come right now across Europe, around the world today, across the Americas, across every ocean, Ireland, Scotland and Wales, and the UK. Please, Jesus, bring us to a place of unity. Bless the war tone areas, dear God. Russia, Ukraine, come, Holy Spirit, Afghanistan, Eritrea, Father Iran. Oh Jesus, Somalia, North Nigeria, South Nigeria, China, Holy Spirit, Japan, God, breathe over the world today. Come, Lord, Brazil, Jesus, revival in Jesus' name. May God bless you. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. May the Spirit of the Living God live in your heart in Jesus' name. Amen. Until tomorrow.
