Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself Reverend Van Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes of hope, faith, and strength. Good morning. It is 3 a.m. here, live in the UK, as we push this out, this Christmas Day special prayer, wherever you are around the world, we welcome you right now, these early doors of the morning. 3 a.m. here in the UK.
Father, in the name of Jesus, we're praying for peace. We're praying for those, dear God, that can't sleep at this hour. And we believe in miracles. Lord, and as we gather around the word of God, Father, as we scroll on our phones, Lord, as we're living with anxious thoughts, Father, as we're living with an overwhelming thinking and an overwhelming power of the mind. Lord, will you bring peace today? Lord, we need peace through these anxious days. And Father, wherever we gather, from London to Manila, from Manila to Johannesburg, from Johannesburg, all the way, dear God, to Cairo, from Cairo to Egypt, Chicago, Melbourne, Rome, Spirit of the Living God, we pray that the love of Jesus Christ will bless us at this hour, in the greatest name in heaven and earth, and at this Christmas day at 3 a.m., Father, on the 25th of December. Lord, let our hearts smile. Let us realize, Lord, that we lock shields of faith. And I pray that wherever you are, will you lock in with me? Will you lock with shields in today? Will you lock in wherever you are at 3 a.m. here in the UK? May the Spirit of the living God be
over your life. Father, we believe that Psalm 4, verse 8 is for each and every one of us. In peace, I will lie down and sleep. For you alone make me dwell in safety. Today, Lord, at this hour, at this 3 a.m. As my voice is giving way, Lord, I pray that the love of God and the Spirit, dear God, the Holy Ghost, Lord, will just come over our lives today and refresh us, Lord, across the world, as millions will be waking up right now, Father, as they're searching for calm, reassurance, and emotional grounding. Lord, we come before you right now on this Christmas day at these early doors, Father, as anxiety spikes at 3 a.m. right now, Lord, Father, as we wake up overthinking, Lord, we are disturbed in our sleep pattern. Father, I pray for those that should be asleep right now, that are listening to my voice, that they will feel the love of Jesus Christ. Father, in the name of Jesus, bring peace to every restless heart right now. Awaken us at this hour, dear God, from fear and doubt. Lord, we don't want to stay. We don't want to linger, that we don't want to hold in anxieties, worries, and fears. Lord, we want the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord, will you give calm to our racing mind? Will you give, dear God, give quiet, dear God, quiet
to fear? Lord, we pray that fear will lessen in the name of Jesus. But we come before you, Lord, and we're hungry and we need the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. But at this hour, Lord, at 3 a.m. here in the UK, Lord, will you pour out your love over each and every one of us? We need you, Lord, Father, the pressure of what lies ahead today. Lord, for those that can't sleep because they're worried about the pressure of the overwhelming fault, dear God, of Christmas Day, of families gathering. We just pray for peace today. We pray that you will settle homes, that there will be peace, dear God, across the world in the glorious, in the beautiful name of Jesus. But Lord, help us to breathe. Help us, dear God, soften the tension. Holy Spirit, we need you. You are the Lion of Judah. You are the great I am. You are worthy of all praise. And we love our God and our King. Wrap your arms around those that dread, dear God. Dread the day that lies ahead. But at this hour, at 3 a.m., dear God, in the name of Jesus, as four minutes past three. Let the Spirit of the Living God carry us. Wherever you are, brother and sister, we pray for such an outpouring of the love of God at this early hour in the midnight day, in the middle of the night. Spirit of the living God, we pray for calm thoughts. We pray for deep rest. We pray for anxiety. We pray for relief at the name of Jesus. Pray, Lord, for a quiet mind. Come, Holy Spirit. I thank you, dear God, wherever the listeners are right now. And Lord, I pray that their heart will rest, their breathing will slow down, and Jesus will be their
peace. But sister and brother, do not go yet because I gotta tell you, John 14, verse 27 is for you. Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. Right now, as we are hitting five minutes past three here in the UK, I pray this prayer over you. May the God that we serve, may the peace of the everlasting Father rest over you today. Thank you for joining us for prayer. Wherever you are scattered, please follow us on the social platforms dailyprayer.uk. Have a blessed Christmas.
