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 wherever you are across this world. Do you know that you are blessed? Do you realize that the change is coming in your life?
We are going to knuckle down to prayer in just a few moments and we're going to pray for the persecuted church. But before we pray for our brothers and sisters, 370 million displaced Christians around the world, we're going to pray for each other. Come on, let's lock in on the field of life. Father, I pray for every heart, everyone that is with me right now. Father, whatever their circumstances are, I pray that you will bless them from the crown of their head to the sole of their feet, that they will feel the love and the power of Jesus Christ in their heart, their mind, their body, their soul. So Lord, bless them today, wherever they are, Father, from the battlefield to the boardroom, and let the Spirit of the Lord be over each and every one of them in Jesus'
name. Sisters and brothers, I invite you to pray for our brothers and sisters right through the persecuted church. Father, as we lock in today, Lord, we stand, Lord God, with shields locked together. We stand in the Word of God. We stand on the holy ground, dear God, underneath our feet. And Lord, we believe in the power of God. We believe in miracles. And right now we pray for our brothers and sisters in hidden rooms, cold basements, forest gatherings, prison blocks, refugee corridors. Father, we pray for the whispering church. Dear God, we pray for the persecuted church. We pray for the church under fire, the church where their faith is under fire. Jesus, strengthen every believer standing firm under pressure today. Wherever the persecuted church is, all the way from Iran, all the way, dear God, to
Tel Aviv, from Tel Aviv, dear God, to Afghanistan. We pray right now for the church in China, that the church that is under pressure in China, that it will rise in the name of Jesus. Lord, we think of the church in Turkey as it faces so much pressure at this moment in time. We pray that there will be revival in Turkey. Father, we pray for such an outpouring of Jesus Christ right the way through Turkey, right the way through China. We pray for Singapore that the church will rise in Singapore. We pray for the believers, the prisoners of faith, wherever they are under lock and key, that they will find the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. We pray for families that have been left behind, for those that have lost their lives according to the scripture, because they believed in Jesus. We pray for the martyrs of faith right now that have lost children, that have left loved ones, families, brothers and sisters behind. We pray, Lord, Lord God, that you will move in hidden rooms, the whispering church, the secret church, the underground church. Father, the church that is on the run for Jesus Christ. We pray that Bibles will get into every town, every village. We pray, Father, for the Christian where they're right under pressure, that they will feel the sense of freedom and the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. But Lord, right now, we come to you, Lord, and we pray that you will strengthen every Bible-believing believer. Let the light of God shine in every hidden corner. Lord, let boldness fill every trembling heart right now. Lord, wherever the church is across the world, let it rise on wings as of eagles. We pray for the secret believer in Europe. We pray for the secret believer in Asia. We pray for the secret believer right now in Afghanistan. Lord, we pray for Iran today. And Lord, we pray for everything that's happening in Iran right now, that the love of God and the power of Jesus will move right the way through Iran, that there will be a revival in Iran.
Spirit of the living God, Father, wherever we are, from London, dear God, all the way to Iran, from Iran all the way, dear God, to Tel Aviv, from Tel Aviv to Israel, from Israel to China, Hong Kong, let the Spirit of the Lord be over you wherever you are. My name's Reverend Ben Cooper. Never give up. Never ever give up. The Spirit of the Lord is over you. Wherever you live, whatever your name is, there is change in your life. Be focused on Jesus Christ. I'll catch you on the next prayer.
