jumping in. Yes, we are still in December. There is a lot of pressure. We are in commercialization here within the West and in the UK. But as we recall this live here in London, England, we've got to rise above this commercial December. We've got to get to this place where God is stripping you and me back and God is healing the families, healing lives. God is bringing peace right away through homes and situations. So shall we pray? I want you to lock in with me wherever you are around the world. I want you to lock shields with me right now in the name of Jesus Christ. I want you to lock in on the rugby field of life. Come on, let's scrum down and let's pray gently and quietly. Let's push the rugby ball over the triline of life. Come on, let's hold on to the
word of God. Father, in the name of Jesus, in the early doors. Lord, as this sun is rising, as the sun is setting, dear God, in the heat of the intensity of December. Father, we pray for healing in the family home all the way around the world. We pray for the house. We pray, dear God, for as for me and my house, we shall serve the Lord. We pray for peace through this season. We pray for reconciliation at this time. We pray for calm and peace during this December month that is highly pressurized. Lord, wherever we are, from London to Auckland, from Auckland, Toronto, from Toronto all the way, dear God, to Holland, to Brazil. Dear God, Paul Paulo, Spirit of the Living God, we pray right now for the West Indies. We pray for Johannesburg. We pray for America. We pray that the love of God will be so strong around our
lives. Lord, we got to dive into the word. And Lord, I carry my brothers and sisters with me right now. I lock in with them right now. And Lord, we believe that Ephesians, Ephesians 4 is for each and every one of us. Lord, I want to pray this over our lives today. The Bible says be completely humble and gentle. Be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. Lord, we want to keep, dear God, peace in our lives. Lord, we want our workplace to be peaceable. Lord, through this month, we want our houses and our homes and our lives and family and church and ministry. Lord, we want the peace of God. Lord, we want clean hands and a pure heart. Lord, the prayer for healing for the family home. Lord, we're looking for calmness during this season of December pressurization. As we come to you right now, Lord, we believe and we stand in the book of Colossians 3, 15. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. Lord, I believe that the Spirit of the Lord is rising over the listeners today. I believe as the morning starts to rise, Lord, as the tension of December still presses in, Lord, the family tension to go, the fear to go, the doubt to go, emotional strain and the pressure of this December gatherings. Lord, as we gather through December, Lord, we need serious breakthrough. Lord, we need this book of Ephesians. Lord, we need Colossians 3, verse 15. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts. Lord, every house, every home, bring every relationship situation, dear
God, the tension and the worries and the fears. Let the love of God be over us wherever we are today. Lord, restore our lives. Strengthen those, dear God, that need to be strengthened. Be with those that you gotta be with. Holy Spirit, I pray for breakthrough at every level of life. Lord, intercede for each and every one of us. We pray for unity and peace, for emotional healing, calm. We're praying for gentleness right now. May the Spirit of the Lord be over your life, sister and brother. There is power in the name of Jesus. May the God that we serve, the Father of Isaac, Jacob and Abraham, the Lion of Judah be over your life. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. With all the stumbles, with all the ifs and the buts and the possibilities and the pauses, we are not AI, we are real human beings. We never cut these prayers. They are straight out of the barrel of truth. May the Spirit of the Lord be with you through this pressurized month. But let's remind ourselves the joy of the Lord is our strength. Until tomorrow, never give up. God bless.
