We pray for your nation, we pray for your tribe, we pray for wherever you are around the world. The glory of God is over your life, and we're jumping
straight in. Come on, we are in the month of December, it is heavy, the atmosphere is strong. I don't know where you are situated and listening to us right now, but I pray that as we lock down on the field of life, that we scrum down together today and we push each another over the triline of life. Come on, we've got to pray for breakthrough. This is a heavy month of December. There is loneliness, there is fear, there is doubt. You know, the whole world seems to be enjoying itself except me. The whole world seems to be doing what it wants to do, and I can't seem to do anything right except me. But I want to tell you right now, God is healing you from family tension, the atmosphere, the strain, the atmosphere that's being strained in your life. You know, the emotional pressure, the unsettled homes during this Christmas season. If we really could see what is happening through the season, there is a lot of tension in lives and in homes at this moment in time. There is pressure financially, there is pressure on relationships, there is pressure. I've got to visit this family. No, we're gonna visit this one. No, we see them last year. We see them this year. We got all that Razmatazz going on. Come on, we gotta
pray. Father, in the name of Jesus. We believe that the presence of God is over our lives. And as we pray, we believe that Colossians 3.15 is sitting over our hearts right now. And as we pray through that beautiful book of Colossians 3.15, let the peace of Christ rule in your heart. Sister and brother, wherever you are, will you join me for prayer today? Will you lock in with me today? Let's ask God that the peace of God will rule our hearts. Father, Lord, through this season, through this crazy season, Father, through this time of sitting around the table, through all the chitter-chatter and everything that goes on, Lord, Father, we just need peace. Lord, we're looking for peace at this Christmas. But Lord, we thank you for the season. And Lord, I pray that we will be your ambassadors at this season, that the joy of the Lord will be our strength. But Lord, as we wake up as the sun rises, as the sun sets, Lord, we believe that there is healing right now for family tension. We believe that there is healing in the atmosphere at home. Lord, the atmospheric strain that is on families and lives right now. Lord, we believe that emotional pressure and an unsettled feeling in the house is about to break for good in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. And we pray right now, during this festive, during this Christmas season, during this time when we recognize that God sent his one and only Son and the Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. Lord, we believe that Colossians 3 15 is sitting over our lives, and whatever the season, whatever the hour is, whatever the Son is doing in our lives, we believe that the peace of Christ is ruling in our hearts.
And I ask you, Father, that we will jump into the book of Romans through this prayer. Lord, that we will pray through Romans 12, 18, if it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. Lord, through this season, Lord, help me and help all the listeners to live at peace with everyone. Father, help us to leave every situation, family strain and pain, Father, the garbage of life, help us to leave it at the cross of Calvary. So Lord, as tension arises, Lord, we believe it decreases. Lord, as emotional strain starts to rise, Father, we believe it's decreasing. And today, wherever we are across the world, prepare us for the season that's coming our way. Bless us for the days that are head. And Father, let the listeners feel the love of God and the peace of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit.
Never give up. God is with you. God is healing us from loneliness and emptiness. God is healing families from tension and the atmosphere that is so strong. All is well because God is with you. Until tomorrow. God bless.
