We are in the book of Philippians 4, verses 6 through to 7. Peace of God, restoration for weary hearts. Have you got a weary heart today? Are you looking for guidance in your life? The Bible says, do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God, and the peace of God which transcends all understanding will guide your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4, verses 6 and 7. This is recorded live here in London, England, with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, as the evening settles in.
Spirit of the Living God, we need restoration. Lead us into restoration. Lord, let God's unchangeable presence drown our worries today. Let us breathe in peace and rest over our mind, our body, our soul. Lord, we believe that anxiety, dear God, is not part of this human race. So as Paul writes the words, Father, from a place of vulnerability, yet deep spiritual strength, Holy Spirit, meet us where we are today. At the very place where anxiety rises, remind us, dear God, you can bring everything to God. I want to tell you right now, bring everything to God. Nothing is too heavy, too confusing, or too small. The peace of God, which does not separate us at all, it guards you. Let your shield, let your shield rise today, let your heart rise today. Let that faith shield rise. Father, in the name of Jesus. I don't want the fears. I don't want the questions of life. Lord, I want the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord, call us right now. I believe God's hand is leading our hearts. And I believe God's voice is saying, Rest now. I am with you. Wherever we are across this world, Lord, bring peace, dear God, and replace anxiety tonight. Replace fear. Lord, I ask God to calm emotional and mental pressure. I pray that Jesus will break through. We're praying for healing for stress and worry. We're asking the Holy Spirit right now, the Holy Spirit to guard my mind. We are praying for rest for those that are overwhelmed. Jesus, to restore joy right now in my life. Restore joy, my life. Come, Lord. I need you. Lord, before we sleep, Lord, we present every concern to Jesus. Lord, every weight that is weighing us down today. Lord, I ask that the Holy Spirit will move in our bodies and our minds. Lord, we believe tonight with vision and covering that the blood of Jesus is over us. Lord, we declare, we make this a public declaration. God, let God's peace guard our hearts, our minds, and Lord, let anxiety, Lord, let anxiety realize it has no authority over my
life. Share this prayer with someone that is struggling tonight. May the Spirit of the living God be over you. The power of Jesus is with you. My name is Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow. Stay blessed.
