Welcome to Daily Prayer with Myself Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes times of faith, hope, and strength. Brother and sister, we're locking straight into prayer. We ain't got time to mess about anymore.

Praying For Healing And Overload

SPEAKER_00

And today we are praying for healing and emotional overload in the season in which we're in. We're in commercialization. We are in December and we are praying together. Father, in the name of Jesus, we jumped straight in. And Lord, we believe in healing. We believe in the power of God. We believe in the love of Jesus Christ. And right now we need healing, dear God, and we've got emotional overload. Lord, our mind is awash with everything that's going on. And Father, we come to the cross of Calvary. Lord, we visualize the cross wherever we are on the school run, on the commute run, on the sandwich run, the coffee run, the run of life. Father, we just visualize the cross right now. And Lord, we pause in the busyness of December. And Lord, we need healing right now. We've got emotional overload. We are worried who we're going to see, who we're not going to see. Lord, we're worried for the season that we're in. We've been worrying about the finances. We're worried about the people we got to engage in. But right now, Lord, Father, I pray for peace. I pray for healing for emotional overload. Lord, as we search the word of God, we're looking for peace. We're looking for strength, the prayer for strength, stability, and God's near presence in heavy seasons. Lord, we're in a heavy season. We need the love of the Father, Lord, wherever we are walking this earth, from London to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to Manila, from Manila to Cape Town to Berlin to Auckland. Father, in the name of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. Lord,

Isaiah 41:10 Against Fear

SPEAKER_00

we are seeking the Father's heart. Lord, we are looking for peace right now. And Lord, we rest in Isaiah. We rest in the beautiful book, Lord, of Isaiah 41, 10. Lord, you're telling us, do not fear. Lord, I tell the brothers and sisters of myself, we cannot fear. Father, will you take the fear away? Lord, you telling us that you are with us. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. Lord, we love you. You are the rock of all ages. Lord, there is no one higher than you. But Lord, in this pressurized cooker of December, Lord, I feel like we're a volcano waiting to erupt with stress, with worry, with doubt, with uncertainty, the situations that bring through December. But Lord, we've got to flip this around. Lord, we've got to understand all things work together for good for those that love God. Lord, we love you. But Lord, why do I keep getting fearful? Why do I keep worrying about the season? Lord, lift the pressure of the season. Father, I feel like a volcano about to erupt with worry, with tears, with doubt. Lord, we need strength for today. Lord, stabilize us right now, wherever we are around the world. Father, we need God's presence. Lord, we want to be filled with the Holy Spirit to our cup overflows. But through this heavy season, Lord, we want to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. Through this season, we want to recognize that Jesus Christ is the King, that Jesus Christ is the Lion of Judah. And we come to you today, and Lord, we rest in Isaiah 41,

Cry For Peace In A Heavy Season

SPEAKER_00

verse 10. So do not fear, for I am with you. Do not be dismayed, for I am your God. Father, not only do we hold into Isaiah 41, 10, Father, we wrap our arms around the prayers of David. Lord, we hold into Psalm 61, verse 2. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. God, I need you in my life. Father, Lord, when we are watching the news channels, everything is breaking out around the world. Lord, not only, dear God, are we at end days, Lord, we are also in December, the commercialized month, Lord, where the world is trying, dear God, so much, Lord, to be better than next doors, to be better than this, to be better than that, to outdo A, B, C, and D. But Lord, I just need peace. Lord, I just need peace. Lord, I need this fear of this season to go. Lord, we need the heaviness of this season to go. And we believe in miracles. We believe that there is healing. There is healing in December. Sister and brother, hold on to your healing. The Spirit of the Lord is over you. I believe in the power of God and God is working in your life. Don't you ever give up. Jesus Christ is with you. Do not allow the enemy in. Come on, let's pray.

Closing Prayer And Blessing

SPEAKER_00

Father, through this closing prayer, we pray that wherever we are around the world, that we will feel the love of God, the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord, fear is under our feet. We want your presence in our lives like never before. Feed us, strengthen us from the boardroom to the battlefield, from the battlefield to the school run. Wherever we are, dear God, in the name of Jesus. Come, Lord, bring peace to our hearts today. In Jesus' name. Amen. Until tomorrow.
