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, love, and strength. If you have a prayer request, please hit us in the email account, which is infodailyprayer.uk. And thank you so much to everybody that's listening on RB Christian Radio. This month we're just playing music, no advertising, nothing but pure Christian worship. And thank God for those that are capturing us on the social networks
wherever you are. And God bless every one of you for sending your prayers in and for praying with us and standing with us, whatever your life is looking like. If you've got internal battles and storms in your life, Jesus Christ is with you. And God bless everybody that's sending us three pounds a month, just three pounds sterling a month. Buy us a coffee, hit the show notes below, and also find us on the social platforms and on the website dailyprayer.uk. Come on, we're gonna pray. I don't know where you are, I don't know how you are, but I just want to invite you in now. And I hope and pray you're okay. You know, we're just waking up and we need strength when I've woken up and I'm already exhausted. Do you ever wake up when you're still tired? You wake up and you feel almost as tired as you did before you went to bed a few hours before. Are you struggling sleeping? Are you struggling? Are you having half an hour, an hour, two hours? Is your sleep pattern all over the place? We're gonna pray for strength for our body today as we're getting ready for school, we're getting ready for work, we're getting ready for life, you know, the rhythm of life, the same
bounce, you know, we don't want the same trampoline bounce day in, day out. Lord, we want freedom. So, Father, I bring every listener before you now and I pray, Lord, for every listener that they will feel the love of Jesus over their lives and they will feel the presence of the Holy Spirit. But Lord, we call down Isaiah 40, verse 31. We call this beautiful book into our innermost being. Lord, we know that we are believers. We know that we are born-again spirit-filled believers. We know, dear God, it's not about going to church. But Lord, in 2026, Lord, as we approach in this January as time is starting to fly, as we're back to work and back to school, back to the rhythm of the humdrum of life. Father, I pray wherever we are scattered around the world, Father, that we will walk in the power of the Holy Spirit. I pray that we come to the cross. Lord, we're waking up and we're tired. Father, we just had a quick nap in the middle of the day and we're tired. Father, we're at our desk and our eyes are closing. Lord, we're at school and we're weary. Father, we're driving the vehicles and we're tired. Lord, our minds are racing and we need strength for today. Give us hope, God. Father, this government, this world gives us no hope. But Jesus Christ, you give us all hope. So Lord, I pray right now, from this moment on, we will get into the scripture. Sisters and brothers, through this prayer time together, I invite you in. Come on, let's scrum down together. Father, as we lock in shields of faith. Lord, as we lock arms together around the world, Father, I thank you for the prayer family on the other side of my voice, and I pray for them right now. Lord, give them strength for their body. Lord, we believe that Isaiah 40, verse 31 is for each and every one of us. Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles. Father, we believe that we are soaring high.
We believe wherever we are, from London to Warsaw, from Warsaw to Manila to Zurich, Father God, we pray for Asia. We pray for Poland and France, Amsterdam. We pray that the love of God, as the sun is rising, as the sun is setting, Lord, as a new day comes upon us, we pray for the love of Jesus Christ. And we believe that Psalm 73, 26 is for each and every one of us. Lord, my flesh and my heart may fail. But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. Lord, you are the strength of our heart. And we pray for our hearts now. We pray, dear God, that you'll give us strength to continue to press on. We're tired, we're weary. Lord, and take the heaviness, take the emotional strain. Lord, the early morning exhaustion, driving to work, on the school run, wherever we are, from the battlefield to the boardroom to the field of life. Father, take the exhaustion, take the fear of money. What lies ahead in January and the rest of the year, Lord? Let us realize that we're going to rise on wings as of eagles. Father, we believe that we are born again, spirit-filled, blessed and highly favored, that your hand is with each and every one of us. Come, Holy Spirit, get us to the cross of Calvary, get us in the Word of God. Lord, help us to pray together, to walk together, to run together, to cry together, Lord, to communicate together. Father, I pray for every listener wherever they are right now, that the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit will lift them. Let them know that they are redeemed, that they are loved, that there is a way, and his name is Jesus. My name is Reverend Ben Cooper. I will catch you on the next prayer. And listen, please don't give up. Speak soon.
