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, please email us to the studio, which is info at dailyprayer.uk. Thank you to everybody that is on RB Christian Radio, everybody that is in the archives of these podcasts and these prayers. May God bless you and also thank you so much from the very depth of our heart for those that support this listener-funded ministry. Just by three pounds a month on buy us a coffee. Thank you so much. That little lap just resting in the show notes.
Wherever you are, we're going to jump straight into prayer and we're praying out Psalm 91, verse 2. And the title is Jesus Stand Close when the night fills deep, and my heart reaches for your safety. Holy Spirit, Lord, my heart, our hearts are reaching for safety. Lord, we're stretching out. Lord, wherever we are across this world, from the four corners of this globe. Father, we thank you for the power of love. Lord, we thank you for the power of the love of
God. And Jesus, as these deep hours of the night start to surround us, Lord, I turn my heart towards you. I ask you that you will come and stand close with us, that you will never leave us nor forsake us. Lord, will you silent, dear God? Will there be silence over the loud rhythm over this day? Lord, will you, Holy Spirit, will you make the day, Lord, the noise of the day quiet? Lord, I pray right now that we will feel the gentleness of our God. Lord, at this early hour, Father, as the sun has set on our life, as the sun will be rising in a few hours. Lord, we're asking for the gentle rhythm of heaven. Lord, will you give us strength, Lord, that runs through me? Lord, will you give me anointing, dear God, that's poured over us? Lord, you are our refuge and our fortress. Lord, this is the place where we find refuge. Lord, we want to rest in you. Lord, I want to stretch out, Lord, and stretch in to the word of God. Lord, if anyone is feeling vulnerable, cover us. Lord, if any one of us is feeling intimidated, Lord, carry us. Whatever the situation, Lord, if we're
worried of the dark, fearful of the night hour. Holy Spirit, I thank you that the psalmist writes so beautifully. Psalm 91 verse 2. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress. Lord, you've got to be our refuge and our fortress from the four corners of the world. Jesus, stand close when the night feels deep. Holy Spirit, this night feels deep. Lord, we can almost feel the heaviness of the darkness. We can almost feel the heaviness of the day. We can almost feel the heaviness, Lord, of the hours that have gone before. And so Lord, as we come to you, Lord, we want to be surrounded by heavenly hosts. Lord, we want to feel the love of God in our lives.
Lord, we want you to pour your love out. Dear God, wherever we are carrying and wherever we are walking and whatever we are doing, Holy Spirit, I pray, from the battlefield to the boardroom, from the boardroom to the field of life. Holy Spirit, Lord, I want to get to the cross of Calvary. I want to feel the love of Jesus over our lives. And today, Lord, let this be a great day. Let this be a powerful day. Let this be the day that the Lord has made. I shall rejoice and be
glad. And from the four corners of the world, all the way here, from live in London, England, to all the way to Scotland, Brazil, dear God, Booger Crest, Holy Spirit, Chicago, the United States of America, Rio de Janeiro. Holy God, that you are. Holy, holy, holy is the Lord. Let the love of God be over your life. The Spirit of the Lord is with you. Don't ever give up at these early hours. Jesus, stand close with me when night fills deep and my heart reaches for your safety. Wherever you are, don't go too far. I will catch you into
