Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes of faith, hope, and strength. The glory and the power and the love of Jesus Christ is over your life. And I'm welcoming you right in now. I thank God for every one of you. Thank you for your emails. Thank you for your love. Thank you for your prayers. And thank you for your support. For those that are hitting, buy me a coffee.
Hit that link in the show notes below, just three pounds a month to support this
ministry. We got to get into prayer right now. We are still in December and we will be for quite a while yet. We're pushing all the way through. I pray that the love of Jesus Christ will be over your life, that you will experience his goodness, his mercy, his favor wherever you are right now. Let's welcome each other in. Come on, brother. Come on, sister. Let's lock in today.
Let's pray. Father, in the name of Jesus. We need healing from symptoms of stress, panic. Lord, our chests are getting tightened. Lord, our thoughts are racing. Lord, in this month that is so pressurized, that is so fierce. Lord, this month feels brutal sometimes. Lord, we can't keep up with the bills. We can't keep up with the presence. Lord, we keep looking and waiting for the 25th, the 25th of December. Lord, it keeps looming. Father, we are worried. We are scared of financial hardship. Lord, I pray, Lord, that we think that we don't have enough. But Lord, we have enough because we have you, Jesus. And I pray, Lord, wherever we are around the world, Lord, that anxious thoughts will go tonight and you will give us stability in our minds. Lord, we need clarity. Lord, I pray for all those chests that feel they're getting tight. I pray for all those racing thoughts right now in the December, higher, pressured season, in the season that is so heavy and strong. I'm asking for healing for my brothers and sisters around the world. I'm praying that the love of Jesus Christ
will heal them. I believe that Philippians 4 7 is for every one of us. And Father, wherever we are, from London to Sydney, from Sydney to Vancouver, from Vancouver to Belfast to Singapore, Lord, I'm asking for an outpouring of your spirit tonight because this month, Lord, is a beautiful month because we recognize the birth of Jesus. But Lord, Holy Spirit, it's so stressful. It's so weary. It's so tiring. Lord, work is hard, ministry is hard. Lord, we're pressured by that date, the 25th of December. Everything is hanging around that commercially, Lord. Father, even the church and ministry, Lord, even the rhythm of the drum of religion and church. Father, I just want peace. And Lord, I pray with my brothers and sisters that you'll give us healing. And dear God, that we will be stress-free. There will be no symptoms, dear God, of panic attack, of fear, of doubt, of anxiety. Lord, I pray for those that are experiencing panic right now. Lord God, you are the Lion of Judah. You are the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. And I pray for such an outpouring of your love and your mercy and your saving grace. Lord, we believe that Philippians 4, verse 7 is for each and every one of us. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ. Lord, I believe that Philippians 4, 7 is for every heart now. And Lord, we thank you that the peace of God, which transcends all this crazy stuff of this world, Lord, we watch the news, we listen to the news, we see the news. Lord, it is scary.
We are watching and getting prepared for the second coming of Jesus. But right now, with this pressure, this heaviness, Lord, this heavy month of December, Lord, we want to break out of this month of December. We want to, dear God, celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ in peace and in hope. Lord, we don't want to be saddled, dear God, with panic attacks and fears and doubts. You are that line of Judah. You are Jehovah Jirah. You are Jehovah Jehairah. You are the King. You are worthy of all praise. Jehovah Nissi, Jehovah Shalom, you're our God. And we come to you right now.
And Lord, I'm asking, dear God, when anxiety was great within me. Lord, I thank you for that Psalm. Psalm 94, verse 19. When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me peace. Father, your love, your rest, your goodness, your favor, your majesty is bringing us rest. And wherever we are, from the battlefield to the boardroom, bless the listeners today from the crown of their head to the sole of their feet in the mighty name, in the
beautiful name of Jesus. God is with you, sister and brother. Wherever you are, don't give up. The power of God is in your life and the Spirit of the Lord is with you. God bless. Until tomorrow, follow us on the social media, dailyprayer.uk
