Welcome To Morning Daily Prayer

SPEAKER_00 0:02

Welcome to daily prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, wherever you are in the world. Thank you for making daily prayer part of your life and part of the rhythm of your day. It is the morning devotional prayer time. We're going to jump straight through the beautiful book of Joshua, chapter 1, verse 9. But before we do, I invite you to stay for these four or five minutes. The morning is already rolling itself out. This is the title for courage and strength. When I need to be bold and not afraid today, Lord God, in the name of Jesus, we breathe and we pause. This morning, dear God, the morning is already rolling out like a carpet. We are praying for three areas over our lives. We're praying for courage, we're praying for boldness, and we are praying for confidence. Lord, we're not going to go in fear. We're not going to go in doubt. We're going to go in the boldness of a lion. We're going to go in the courage, dear God, as a warrior. And right now we got confidence. Lord, we push our chest up, Lord. We stand upright in the name of Jesus. We walk strong. Lord, we're braggadocious. We walk in the power of the word of God. Lord, we're not going to live by fear. We're not going to live in doubt in the name of Jesus Christ. From the four corners of the world. Lord, we believe that we walk in boldness, not arrogance, but boldness. We believe that we're walking in confidence, not fear. We believe that we're going in courage and we are not going in intimidation. We are going in these three areas of our lives. And Lord, we pray right now that the love of God will fall like new rain. Lord, like summer rain over our lives. Father, give us courage and strengthen us as we walk the path of life. Wherever we are, from the battlefield to the boardroom, to the field of life, to the rock face of life, to the pedicure, to the now bar, to the barbers, to the hairdressers, to cutting the grass, whatever we are doing at this hour. We are praying, Lord God, for courage, boldness, and confidence. And Father, we thank you that we are feeling the strength and the anointing of the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. But Jesus, we call on that name. Holy Spirit, we call on your presence. Dear God, the Father of Isaac, Jacob, and Abraham. We call on the God of Israel. We call on the King of the Jews. We call on the name of Jesus. Lord, we are going to walk in boldness, strength, and confidence today. And wherever we are, we believe in miracles. Lord, I thank you that there is healing over our lives. Lord, I thank you that mental health is healed. I thank you that fear is gone. Lord, we pray, Lord, from the crown of our head to the sole of our feet. Whatever we face, whatever challenges, sickness, and disease melts like wax at the name of Jesus. So Lord, we believe that we have confidence, we have boldness, and this is a new day. Lord, we're finding inner strength that we never thought possible. We are finding a calmness and a kindness and a love, Lord, that we never see before. So Lord, I pray as we walk through the valley of the shadow of death, you are not distant from us. Lord, that you're the first, you are the last, you are the Alpha, you are the Omega, you are the great I am. And right now, Lord, we believe that Jesus is beside each and every one of us. Lord, that you're not at a distance, Lord. You're living inside of our lives. You're with us wherever we are. And as we pray out from the four corners of the world, as we stretch out live from London, we pray all the way to Bogota. We pray to Mexico City, Singapore, Manila, we pray right now to Panama City, America, Canada, Australia. We believe that the power of God is being poured out over our lives. Father, as this morning unrolls, dear God, as it unrolls itself like a carpet, Spirit of the Living God, we thank you that the sun is in the heavens. We thank you that the rain is falling. But whatever season we are experiencing right now, whether it's summer, autumn, winter, or spring, we believe whatever we are going through, God is before us. And we are going to go in courage, strength, and a new boldness today. Lord, we're not worried about today. We're not worried about what might be happening around us. We're not going to listen to the fabric of the world on the outside. We're not going to listen and feel the temperature of the world outside. We're going to go by faith because we are not afraid. We are not discouraged. We're going to go in the glory and the power and the love of Jesus Christ. The Bible says as we pedal out of Joshua chapter 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. Don't ever give up. May God bless you. Have a beautiful morning and keep going. Keep pressing into Scripture. There is courage, there is strength, and there is a new beginning over your life. I invite you to stay with me. Join us for the next prayer in the name of Jesus. God bless.
