We're jumping into Jeremiah 29, verse 11. And whatever the hour is, we're praying for hope, healing, restoration, and God's purpose over a crisis right now. Father, in the name of Jesus, we come before you, Lord, and we believe that the Spirit of the living God is in our lives today. And wherever we are, Lord, we believe in miracles. We believe in the power of God. And right now, Lord, we pray, dear God, for the love of Jesus Christ to give us strength. We pray for those, dear God, that are worried about their lives. We pray, Lord, Jeremiah 29, verse 11. For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you. Plans to give you a hope on the future. Father, I'm worried about the future. Lord, I don't know about my brothers and sisters, but Lord, I'm I'm open and honest. I'm worried about the future. Lord, I get scared some days. Yes, Lord, I am, dear God, who I am in Christ, but Lord, I still get worried. And Lord, I need you, Father. I need you in my own life like never before. Lord, I want to walk godly. I want to walk with the lion of Judah. Lord, I want to walk, dear God, with a pure heart and clean hands. Lord, I want my life tidy. Lord, I want my life, dear God, all wrapped up in a bow like a Christmas present. Lord, but I need you, Jesus. I need you in my life. And Lord, I believe this goes for uncountable believers across the world. Lord, we need Jesus as our Lord and Savior. Lord, we need, dear God, direction and clarity for our lives. Father, we don't want to live a life of chaos. We don't want to live a life of carnage. We don't want to live a life, dear God, of chaotic moves. We want to live in peace and stillness and calm. So Father, we thank you for the you know that you have the plans for each and every one of us. And whatever those plans are, Lord, will you let us know? Because Lord, it's quite scary, Lord. And we've got to be open today, Lord. We've got to be open and honest. And we want our God and our Christ. And we believe that Jeremiah 29, verse 11, is for every one of us. For I know the plans I have for you. God has got plans over your life. He has beautiful plans, declares the Lord. The Lord declares it.
And even though that we look at life right now and we look into the left, the right, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, and everything is interwoven and we can't seem to find a way out. God will make a way in the desert. Let's pray. Father, will you make a way just like you did, dear God, for the Israelites, like you did for the Israelites, dear God, when they was walking around and around and around. Father, it feels like we're just walking around and around and around from the same drumbeat, morning to midday, midday to night. Lord, the same drum. Lord, we need Father God. We got fatigue. Father God, we need you. And we also pray Psalm 46, verse 1. God is our refuge and strength and ever-present help in trouble. Father, we might be in trouble emotionally, we might be in trouble with relationships. We might be in trouble financially. We might be in trouble, dear God, with so many areas of life. So Lord, will you help us in our trouble? Lord, we work and we pray right now. Lord, and we're tired and we're weary. But we believe that the hour that we're at right now, God is moving through the conflict of life, the inner storms, the inner storms. Father, we're tired of smiling. Lord, we're tired of smiling and letting the world know we're okay. But actually, inside of us, Lord, there are inner storms, there are inner fears, there are inner doubts, and we need the healing hand of Jehovah Jirah. We need the Lion of Judah. We need the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. You are Jehovah Nissi. You are Jehovah Shalom. You are the great I am. Holy Spirit, I pray for healing. Healing emotionally, Lord. Father, we are so tired on this earth. The earth is crazy, Lord. And we need you today. But Lord, we believe that the Lord's plans are breaking out in our lives. And we pray for nations, we pray for healing, we pray for hope. We pray for dear God for restoration. We pray for transitions that we're in. Bless us from the crown of our head to the sole of our feet in the mighty name of
Jesus Christ. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Until tomorrow, may the joy of the Lord be your strength.
