Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, recorded live here in London, England, where the world gathers for five minutes of faith, love, hope, and strength. If you've got a prayer request, you can email us at info at dailyprayer.uk. Thank you for your support around the world. Everybody that is listening to us on RB Christian Radio. As we always say,
guess what? There's no news, there's no weather, there is no travel report. It is just pure worship right the way through January, and the glory of God is over your life. Thank you again to everybody that is downloading the back library of stuff right the way back through to lockdown. Have a listen of that first podcast that we've done about Israel. You know, you might get a bit of info from that. It was quite raw back in those days. But right now, let's get straight into the word of
God. Whatever your time zone is, we're gonna pray. And what we're gonna pray for, Jesus, protect my mind tonight. Jesus, protect my mind and surround me with your peace before I sleep. Core, that sounds good, doesn't it? Come on. Jesus, in the name of Jesus, Father, in the beautiful name of the Lion of Judah, in the glorious name of Jehovah Jirah, we thank you that there is a beautiful name, Emmanuel, God with us. Lord, I thank you that God is with us, that the Holy Spirit is with us.
And wherever we are, we believe in the book of Psalms, we believe in the prayers of David, that Psalm 91, that God has released angels concerning you, and God has deployed angels over your life. They will lift you up in their hands so that you will not strike your foot against a rock. Jesus Christ loves you. Whatever your world is looking like, whatever the barking dogs are saying, whatever the bears are growling, whatever the lions are doing in your life, do not allow those ankle biters to get hold of you. I'm not referring to the kids, I'm referring to what the Bible says about the foxes and the dogs getting around your ankles. The Spirit of the Lord is over you. Father, all the way from London to Auckland, Cape Town, Chicago, Jerusalem. I pray for night protection in the name of Jesus Christ. Calm my thoughts when fear starts to rise at this bedtime hour. Lord, for some unknown reason, Lord, the spiritual intensity seems to get hold of me. Holy Spirit, cover me right now. And I believe in John 17, verse 15, my prayer is that very simple.
My prayer is that you will not take them out of the world, but you will protect them from the evil one of the world. Father, I thank you that Jesus Christ says, My prayer is that you will not take them out of the world, but you will protect them from the evil one of the world. So, Father, as we go to work, we got protection. As we go to school, we got protection. As we live life, we got
protection. Thank you, Lord, as we go into all the world. Father, you tell us that great commission to go into all the world. Father, we're not gonna hide in the cupboard. We're not gonna hide under the table. We're not gonna hide away, we're gonna let our light shine because we believe that salvation is over our lives and wherever we are, from the battlefield of life to the boardroom. Father, if we are just getting back from work, whatever the time zone is, wherever we are, Lord, we thank you that the power of God is over each and every one of us. And Lord, we declare that we hear the sound of heaven raining. We hear the sound of latter-day
rain. We feel the presence of God in our lives. Father, as we drive home tonight, Father, as we're going, dear God, to a drive-thru tonight. Lord, as we're eating out with family and friends tonight, wherever we are, at home, at work, whatever is going on in our lives. Father, as we're just coming back from swimming, coming back from the gym, if we're out in the shops right now, Lord, I pray wherever we are, because Lord, we gotta be authentic. We gotta be real. Lord, we thank you that the power of God is with us wherever we are, whatever context of life we are living, the Spirit of the Lord is over you. Never ever give up. And I pray that peace will carry you forevermore.
Whatever your life is reflecting, whatever lens you're measuring life right now, do not allow fear, worry, and doubt to grab you. Father, protect us. Protect us now. Jesus, stay close with me right now. Holy Spirit, bring peace to me right now. May the Spirit of the Lord carry you wherever you are across this world. Don't go too far. I'll catch you at the next prayer.
