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've got a prayer request, you can email us at infodailyprayer.uk. Wherever you are around the world, please, please, oh please. Good morning, good evening, good afternoon. Please do not try to capture what the news is saying about
war. Sisters and brothers, there is so much going on, and the title that we're praying for now is Jesus Help Me Face the Future Without Fear. Be careful of the news channels, be careful of the propaganda, be careful of everything that we see and what is going on socials, be careful of the news channels. It is critical that we do not lock into what is
happening. It is critical that we walk and we anchor ourselves in the Bible. If there is ever a time for you and me to get into prayer, it is right now. We are at a critical stage around the world. But without further ado, let's pray.
Jesus, help me face the future without fears. Father, as we watch the news, Father, as we're at work, as we're living life, Father, as we're mooching around the world, whatever we are doing, we pray, Jesus, help me face the future without fear. Holy Spirit, Lord, we are worried about the future. Lord, we're looking at the world. We're watching things escalating around the world at this moment. Lord, we are watching the political ping-pong going on. Father, in the name of Jesus, we pray right now that you all, dear God, carry each and every one of us. And I believe through this prayer time, the Holy Spirit is leading you. Jesus, will you quieten my thoughts? Lord, I'm worried about war. I'm worried, dear God, what's happening around the world. Jesus, help me tonight. Help me, dear God, because sometimes I feel like I freeze when the unknown starts to rise within me. Lord, put trust and hope back in my skin that I walk in. Lord, break the cycle of anxiety. Break the cycle, dear God, of being scared. Lord, break the loop, the monotony, dear God, of fear, of doubt. Lord, help me not to engage to what is being said across the news channels. Father, I believe that our
future is in the palm of your hand. And dear God, we believe in Psalm 55, 22. Cast your cares onto the Lord because He cares for you. Father, in the name of Jesus, you tell us that you care for us and you tell us to cast onto the Lord. Father, help me to cast on. Lord, I'm not sure how to cast
on. And Lord, very clearly, Matthew tells us in six, therefore, do not be worried about tomorrow. For tomorrow will worry about itself. Lord, I'm worried about war. We're worried about school. We're worried about life. We're worried about relationships. We're worried about the food crisis. We're worried about the heating issue at this moment. Lord, we're worried about, dear God, so many things. The mental health issue. Lord, we got emotional pressure. Jesus, guide me in these uncertain days. Lord, my thoughts, dear God, in this world seems to be spiraling out of control. Lord, all I hear are these world leaders talking about war. Dear God, in the name of Jesus, I pray that we will not hang on to what the future says within the world. And we won't worry about tomorrow because our God is able. And right now, protect families, bless the brothers and sisters, protect children around the world.
Father, we're asking you wherever we are, from London to Los Angeles, from Los Angeles to Johannesburg, from Johannesburg all the way to Milan, from Milan to Berlin to Auckland, Father, bless America, Spirit of the Living God. We pray for Iran right now in the name of Jesus. We pray for Israel. Lord, we're asking that the love of God and the power, dear God, Lord, come and soothe. Come, dear God, and drop the love of God across this world. Lord, we need love tonight. We need the glory tonight. Father, we're in the battlefield of life. Lord, we are in a war zone. We are watching these news channels, Lord, preparing for war. We're watching nations rising against nations. Lord, help us to hold it together. Because, Lord, we need this cycle of anxiety broken. Now, Lord, we're here in the world talking about war. But Jesus, we thank you that the battle belongs to you.
And Lord, I've got the biggest war going on in my life, and that is the war within myself. The battle within. Lord, will you deal with the battle within Jesus? Help me face the future without fear. We love you, Lord. May the Spirit of the Lord be over you. Do not allow the news channels, do not allow what you are watching and what you are seeing. Don't get drawn into that propaganda. Be very careful what you watch, who you listen to. Get in the word of God and pray and cover yourself in the presence of Jesus Christ. All is well. I will catch you at the next prayer. Don't go too far.
