Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Van Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes of faith, love, hope, and strength. Wherever you are, God is with you. What we're gonna pray for. Come on, let's pray for courage, identity, confidence, and strength in Christ. When we pray for courage, come on, let's pray for courage. Let's pray for identity.
What do we mean with what do we mean? Sorry about identity, who we are in Jesus. We are blessed and highly favored. Identity is critical. That you realize, I realize that we are sons and daughters of the living God. And we are born-again Christians, spirit-filled, blessed and highly favored, highly charged, loaded with the word of God, braggadocious brothers and sisters across the world. That is our identity. That we are born-again believers in the word of God, from Genesis to Revelation, whatever your time zone is around the world, the strength of Christ is
over your life. Father, I thank you for every listener. And Lord, I pray that Philippians 4 13 will be over the skin that they walk in, it will be in their innermost being. I pray, Jesus, give us courage when I feel I'm not enough. Lord, the devil is a liar. Lord, if anyone is telling us that we're not enough, if anyone is bullying us, if anyone, dear God, is pulling us down with words, remove them out of our lives in the name of Jesus. Father, we want to stand alone and stand strong in Jesus Christ. Lord, we don't want to crowd, dear God, of those that are pulling us down. Lord, at work, at school, at home, in life, out of life, in the rhythm of marriage, in relationships, from children, whoever we are, whatever we are, wherever we are. Lord, we do not want to be around people that are telling us we are not enough. Lord, because we are blessed and highly favored. Lord, and I believe that Philippians 4 verse 13 is for every listener now. You can do all things through Christ that gives you strength. I want to tell you you can. I want to tell you that you're blessed. I want to tell you that God loves you. I want to tell you you are able. You pick up that word
of God. You get hold of the book of Joshua, you read Joshua chapter 1, and God says, Be strong and courageous. You read what it says about being strong and courageous. The Spirit of the Lord is with you. He says in verse 8, do not let this book of the Lord depart from your mouth. Meditate on it day and night. Come on. We belong to Jesus Christ. Jesus loves you. You are enough and you are more. God loves you. Don't listen to the socials, don't listen to your neighbors, don't listen to your family, don't listen to those at work. Whoever is pulling you down by words, Father, extract those that are pulling us down by words in the name of Jesus. Father, put people in the circle of our lives that will carry us when we're tired. Put people in our lives, Lord, that will carry us when we're exhausted. Lord, put four people in our lives like the brother that was on the mat. Oh my God, in the New Testament, sisters and brothers, we are in prayer.
But do you remember that story when that man was laying on that mat and he had four people pick up each corner and they couldn't get him to Jesus? The doorway was blocked, the windows were blocked because of the crowd. But they went up the stairs and they tore the roof off. Father, I pray that you will put people in our lives when I'm tired and I'm weary and I can't walk right. They will pick up the one corner, put four people in our lives that will pick up a corner of our sick bed and carry us to Jesus. Lord, I want people around me that will get me to Jesus. When I'm weary, I want people that will get me to Jesus. Lord, when I'm tired, I want people that will get me to Jesus. Lord, I want people around me that will carry me right up onto the roof of life. And they tore the flax off that roof and they lowered their friend down into the presence of Jesus. Lord, I pray that through these prayers, I will lower, dear God, everyone down into the presence of Jesus. Lord, I pray that we will lower each and every one of us right down to the presence of Jesus.
I pray, Lord, that wherever we are on the field of life, from the battlefield to the boardroom, Father, from London to Zurich, from Zurich to Warsaw to Barcelona, Vienna, and Prague, Lord, I pray that the Spirit of the Lord will move right now through Europe, through London, all the way through the Americas, all the way through Brazil, right the way through the Vatican City, all the way through Rome. Come on. Australia, be saved in the name of Jesus. Father, bless every island, every nation, every tribe and every tongue. Be strong and courageous. We're going to go out on this. Joshua 1, verse 9. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid. Do not be discouraged, for the Lord thy God is with you wherever you go. We're out of here. Jesus Christ is with you. Until the next prayer.
