Sister and brother, we thank you for your emails. We thank you for your encouragement. We thank you for your love. We thank you for your prayers. And we thank you that you are partnering with us. And not just financially, but standing with us, standing with us as we stand together of as brothers and sisters across the world as we
pray. We are certainly living at the last days. We are certainly living in spiritual tension that we never thought we'd ever see in every nation under the sun. Everything is different. There is no normal normal. And I'm tired of hearing that new word. This is the new normal. I do not want to hear that anymore. I want to hear that Jesus Christ loves us. That's all I want to know. Jesus Christ loves us. Father, in the name of Jesus, we thank you for the power of the word of God. And as we come to you, scattered across this world at the midnight hour, at the early hour, at the daybreak, as the sun rises, as the sun sets. Father, we pray, Lord,
for these dark hours, as the seasons of life are changing. We pray for those that are suffering with night anxiety. Those, dear God, that are emotionally heavy, dear God. We pray that fear, the fear of the unknown, will go. Lord, we pray for those that are longing for rest. We search the scriptures at these dark hours, at these daybreaks. Lord, we search the scriptures tucked up in bed, on the school run, sitting at the desk. Lord, we pray, Lord, that we won't dive into social media for looking for the answers, but we'll get into the word. And we believe Psalm 4, verse 8 is for each and every one of us today. And as we pray, dear God, we lock in together. We pray for night comfort. We pray for rest. We pray for peace and God's protective presence through the darkest hours of life. Lord, we need you. And Father, we are richly blessed because we walk with Jesus Christ and wherever we are, from London, dear God, to Los Angeles, to Manila, to Mumbai, dear God, to Edinburgh, to Dubai, to Ireland, Father, all the way through Europe, all the way through Asia, the Americas. Father, God bless America. Save America. Let the love of God be in every state, every nation, every tribe, every tongue. But right now, as we record this live here in London, England, we pray Psalm 4, 8 over our lives. In peace, I will lie down and sleep. For you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety. Lord, we gotta dwell in safety. Lord, we gotta live in safety because,
Lord, it's scary being a human being. Lord, I know what your word says, the just shall live by faith. But Lord, I'm still a human, I'm still a man, I'm still scared, Lord. I still at my age get worried. I still, dear God, as a pastor, reverend, leader, whatever it might be. Lord, those titles don't help my feelings, and they don't help me, Lord, when the night sweats come in. But Lord, I need the word of God, and we pray, Psalm 23, 4. Even though we walk through the darkest valley, we will fear no evil, for you are with us. Lord, we thank you that you are with us, that you never leave us nor forsake us. But Lord, we search for comfort, we search for safety. We are searched, dear God, for emotional peace at the peak at midnight, right at the 11th hour, right there, constantly. We're looking for peace and we got to walk in the word of God. Lord, I love prayer. Lord, I love having this conversation with you, God. I love praying, Lord. But Lord, when I come out of prayer, Lord, why do I still get worried?
Why do I still get fearful? Lord, wherever we are across the world, Father, I pray for quietness in our lives. I pray for a gentle presence of God to sweep through us and around us. Father, watch over us when we sleep. Father, watch over us when we sleep now at the name of Jesus. Give us calm, give us rest. Lord, we love God's presence, his mercy. Lord, we thank you that you are the Lion of Judah. And at the hour right now, we believe in miracles. We believe in the power of God. We believe in the love of the Holy Spirit. Lord, we want to walk in the divine. We want to walk in healing. We want to walk in complete rest. Lord, we want to walk in the way that you want us to walk. So Lord, we're praying for rest. We're praying for peace. We're praying for comfort. We're praying for calm and sleep. God's presence, please, be with us, Lord, in our lives. Help us to make right lifestyle choices. Come, Holy Spirit, bless the listeners from the crown of their head to the sole of their feet. Let the love of God be over their lives in the greatest name in heaven and earth. Remind yourself, above everything else, above everything else, I am a believer in Jesus. I believe in the God of Israel. I believe in the deity and the Trinity. I believe that Jesus Christ is the coming King. And as we are waiting for the second coming of Jesus, never give up. God is with you. The Spirit of the Lord is with you. Hold on, you are a born again Christian, spirit filled, and God loves you. May the Spirit of the Lord raise you up today. Raise you up so you can soar on wings as of eagles. Until tomorrow, stay blessed.
