Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where faith meets the world in daily devotion and global hope. This is your five-minute commuter prayer, quick fired moments of faith that carry us through the rest of the
day. If these prayers are blessing you, please tap the button on Apple, Spotify, Buzz Sprout, and leave us just a short review. Also, this is a listener-funded ministry. Just for £3 a month, you can buy us a coffee. Hit that link, buy me a coffee, please, just in the show notes
below. We're jumping into the book of Philippians 4, verse 8, as we pray for purpose, calling and spiritual awakening. Wherever you are across the world, just remind yourself that the love of God is over your life and the power of Jesus Christ is with you. We are in this book, Philippians 4, verse 8, reading from the NIV. Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy. Think about such
things. Lord, I pray right now that we will think about such things, that we will hang on the word of God because we know the word of God will set us free. And Lord, in the middle of the day, in the middle of the evening, in the hour, dear God, as we cry out, we thank you that faith remains. We're praying for purpose and we're asking you, dear God, to open our eyes of faith. Lord, as millions of us, dear God, are looking for directional help. Lord, help us not to be overwhelmed or spiritually dull. Lord, we thank you, Philippians 4, verse 8. It reminds us that revival begins in the mind. Lord, I pray for that battlefield, that wasteland experience of the mind. I ask you, dear God, where thoughts become worship and focus becomes faith. I pray, dear God, that we will not worship to the wrong things of this world. Lord, I pray that we will worship to the eternal
God. And all the way, dear God, from Toronto, all the way, dear God, to Scotland, all the way from Scotland to Israel, from Israel to Tokyo. Father, we pray for Japan and an outpouring of your spirit around the world. But Lord, we choose, we choose today, Lord, to follow Jesus. And Lord, we need holiness. Help us, Lord, all the believers around the world to rediscover the holiness in God. And help us to engage, dear God, and to walk in biblical truth. We ask you, dear God, that we will choose, dear God, purity over popularity. Lord, that we will look for excellence, dear God, over apathy. Lord, we ask you, dear God, when the noise of fear and when the noise of the world, wherever we are, dear God, from the battlefield to the boardroom, dear God, from the boardroom to the scaffold, from the scaffold, dear God, to retail, from retail, dear God, to the field of life, from the field of life to the places that capture
us. Lord, we need you in our lives today. And Lord, we need an outpouring of the Spirit. Wherever we drive for a living, whether we walk for a living, whether we're at home or a homemaker, whatever we are doing in our lives, Father, whatever we are doing, cutting the grass, dear God, on the treadmill of life. Lord, if we're in the gym walking the dogs, dear God, whatever we are doing, whether we're sitting on the edge of the bed crying, we need breakthrough today.
So Lord, we ask you, dear God, that you will give us spiritual awakening today, that we will come alive in our spirit. Lord, that we will rise, dear God. Lord, as we live in a world that is really weary, we need spiritual awakening for every workplace, school, and home. Lord, let our minds be refreshed and renewed, hearts to be re-fired, and churches to rise with fresh focus to think, to speak, to pray, and to walk in the Word of God. Father, we thank you that we are finding purpose and direction for our lives, spiritual awakening and renewal, clarity in calling and
vocation. Lord, we ask you right now that you will speak directly to the churches, to the pastors, to the believers, to each and every one of us. And as we make this a life application, Lord, we thank you that thoughts of God are stronger than they ever been. Lord, make it clearer. We want to tell the world, Father, I thank you that my mind is set on what is true, noble, and praiseworthy. And Lord, I ask you right now that we will pull and we will call and we will shout, dear God. We will pull the word of God in, we will call the word of God in and we will push the word of God out. Lord, help us to pull it in, to call it in, to shout it out at the name
of Jesus. We stand on the gospel and Lord, we want to make a call to action right now as we share this prayer for spiritual focus with someone that is seeking spiritual direction. Make a way today. Partner with us at dailyprayer.uk to keep the scripture based and keep moving in
every nation. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. May the Spirit of the Lord be over you today. Never give up in Jesus' name.
