Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes of prayer, faith, hope, love, and strength. If you have a prayer request and you would like us to pray for you, please email us at info at dailyprayer.uk. I will repeat that infodailyprayer.uk. Thank you for your love. Thank you for your support wherever you are around the world.
Please continue to listen on RB Christian Radio as we push worship out. We keep no advertisements on there whatsoever. It is pure worship. And occasionally you will hear our voices on there with prayer and just scripture and all that sort of razumatazz. But listen, please listen to RB Christian Radio. And every Sunday night, UK time at 9 p.m. on X and on RB Christian Radio. We are live for 45 minutes for prayer for the week that lies ahead. But God is with you wherever
you are. We're praying for comfort tonight. And God is with you. I've got to encourage you right now, however you are, whatever your name is, wherever you live, we are praying for you. God is with you. God loves you. Don't ever give up. We're tired, we're weary, but come on, we've got a brand new year, and we're gonna walk through this year together. We're not going alone, we're not going individually. You know, as the scripture says, even though I cannot be with you in bodily form, very, very clear there, I am with you in spirit. We're with you in spirit wherever you are. Father, I thank you for everyone tonight. And wherever we are placed across this globe, I pray for those that just feel lonely in the quiet hours. I pray, dear God, that we won't, dear God, waste our lives scrolling through social media. But Lord, that we will rest in the gospel of Jesus Christ. Lord, that we will hold our place in the Bible. And Father, we thank you that we are not alone because we got the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. And tonight we believe you are close to the brokenhearted. Those, dear God, that have got challenges with their families, their children, their workplace, those that are carrying issues, those that are carrying quiet battles, those that are going through the storm of life, we pray for strength now in
the name of Jesus. And as we gather from London to Sydney, from Sydney to France, from France to Holland to Belgium, dear God, to Amsterdam, wherever we are around the world and Israel, we pray for Israel. We pray for the peace of Jerusalem. And Lord, not only do we pray for the peace of Jerusalem, we pray for the peace of this world. That you will bring peace to us, Lord. We're tired of watching the news. Father, the news that drops down on our phones and on our gadgets, Lord. We don't want to engage in what the world is doing. Lord, we want to rest in the arms of Jesus. And I pray for those that feel brokenhearted and for those that feel crushed in spirit at the moment. Lord, I believe that Psalm 34, verse 18, is for every one of us now. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Jesus is with you, and he is wiping every tear from your eyes. God is with you, He's carrying you, He loves you. Jesus Christ, we get to the cross. Father, we need the cross. We need resilience.
We need comfort. We need, dear God, peace of mind. Because Lord, we're weary, we're tired. It's been a heavy day today, Lord. And it's late now. And Father, we ain't even got the energy to pray. So Lord, for those that haven't got the energy to pray, and for tiredness and fatigue that is creeping in. Father, for those that feel agitated, those that have been troubled at work today, those that have had trouble with the children, marriages, relationships, whatever has gone on today, Lord, under the skin of the hours we've lived on this earth, I pray, Father, that you'll bring peace and the love of God will just permeate over each and every one of us. Lord, we're tired, we're weary, but Lord, we're blessed and highly favored. And Lord, we thank you that the word of God is in our hearts and we are going to soar on wings as of eagles. We're going to rest tonight, Lord, and we believe your promises are yes and amen.
So from the battlefield to the boardroom, dear God, from the tired bed, dear God, to the night shift, whatever we are doing in the name of Jesus, break the cycle, dear God, of monotony, the humdrum way that we live in the world. Father, we are not robots, we are born-again spirit-filled believers. And Father, will you fill us to our cup runneth over? So that we find peace, we find hope, we find love, and we see favor in our lives. Lord, we come to the cross. Father, forgive us where I fail you, where I sin and fall short of thy glory. But I thank you, Jesus, that there is forgiveness in Jesus Christ. So Lord, I pray for every listener wherever they are around the world. Carry them and bless them. God is with you. Until the next prayer, may the Spirit of the Lord carry you into your destiny and never give up. God is with you. God bless.
