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 love. Wherever you are, brother and sister, do not give up. God is with you. God speaks through courage, He speaks through the anxious moments, and God
is with you. This is New Year's Eve. We are on the 31st of December. The sun is just starting to rise. The sun might be setting on your day, whatever the day looks like. I want to tell you right now to be strong and courageous because we are about to leave 2025. We're about to leave the old and the former things, and we are about to accelerate into 2026. And the Spirit of the living God is over each and every
one of you. Father, I pray that we'll be strong and courageous. I pray that Joshua chapter 1, verse 9 will come alive in our lives. And Lord, we believe in the fire of God. We believe in the anointing of God. And Father, wherever we are gathering, from London to Manila, from Manila, dear God, all the way to France, Spain, Beijing, Lord, we pray for Tokyo right now, Hong Kong and China. We pray for Australia, Father. Oh, we ask that the living God will just carry us today.
But Lord, as we look at our future, Lord, we pray that we will overcome the fears and the worries, dear God, that we see in our natural eye. But Lord, we pray right now that Joshua 1, verse 9, Lord, will come alive in our spirit. The Bible says, be strong and courageous, do not be afraid. For the Lord thy God goes with you wherever you go. Father, we thank you that you were with us in 25. And Lord, as we are leaving 25 and we are starting to embark on a brand new year, 26, we believe that you're with us. You've already gone before us. The Spirit of the Living God is over our lives. And Lord, we lay, we hold, and Lord, we wrestle with the word today. And we carry this word in our lives. Father, when we walk up to the 26, dear God, we walk to 26 with boldness, with courage. We walk to 26, dear God, with the Lion of Judah in our lives. Lord, we are leaving the junk, we are leaving the fear, we are leaving the doubt, we are leaving the suitcases of fear, of worry, of doubt, of tremors, of being scared, of anxiety, panic attacks, fear, debt. We're leaving all that worry, dear God, in the suitcase of 2025. And Lord, we are going to leave it at the cross. Lord, I don't know how to leave it at the cross. You need to give me strength because, Lord, it is so difficult to empty my mind. The suitcase of my head, Father, help me to empty my head. And Father, as I come to you right now in the name of Jesus Christ, I pray that you will help me to be strong and courageous. And Lord, we will not be afraid. I pray for the listeners, wherever they are, from the battlefield to the boardroom. Father, wherever they are now in the name of Jesus.
Father, if they're in bed, if they're sleeping, if they're resting, if they're rising, whatever their lens looks like, however they measure life, I pray for such an outpouring of the Spirit of the Living God that you will carry them at the midnight hour. They will feel the love of God. And Father, we believe that Isaiah 41, verse 10 is for each and every one of us. Do not fear, for I am with you. I will strengthen you and help you. Father, as we are being prepared by the Spirit of the Living God to cross over, Lord, on this New Year's Eve of 2025, Father, we thank you that God's loudness is so loud. God's presence is so powerful. God's love is so powerful. Lord, you are so loud it is silent. Lord, we see you in creation. We see you in the atmosphere. We see you in the fabric of life. Lord, you are loud. You are all around us. And Father, we pray right now, as this year comes to a close, we surrender every fear, every moment of anxiety, and we bring ourselves to the cross of Calvary. And we say thank you, Jesus, for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. But right now, Lord, we breathe courage into our lives. Lord, we breathe the word of God. We breathe the power and the anointing, the love of God. And right now, wherever we are, Father, we pray that the peace of God and the love of God, Lord, that we will go into 2026, Lord God, in confidence, in courage, in power, in authority, in the love of Jesus Christ. So wherever we are, Lord, we are leaving the baggage at 25. And we're coming to the cross right now. We believe that Joshua is alive and well in our life. That scripture is fire to us right now, Lord. And we are going to be strong and courageous. We're not going to be afraid, for the Lord thy God is with you wherever you go. Strengthen us and carry us in the most beautiful name of Jesus
Christ. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. May the Spirit of the Lord be with you on this New Year's Eve. Stay with us in prayer. Never ever leave the hand of God. God is with you until later on. May God bless you and carry you. Take care. God bless.
