Welcome To Evening Daily Prayer

SPEAKER_00

Welcome to Daily Prayer with myself, Reverend Ben Cooper, wherever you are across the world. Thank you for making daily prayer part of your life and partner of the rhythm of your day. It is the early evening devotional prayer time. How you're feeling, what a day it's been already. There's still quite a few hours to go. We're gonna jump into the book of Philippians 4, verses 6 through to 7, and it is the beautiful title. This is the evening prayer for release of anxiety, overthinking, and stress. And Father, get us into your presence, dear God in heaven. Lord, as we pray this evening prayer to release anxiety, overthinking, and stress into God's peace. Lord, we need God's peace in our lives and we believe in the word of God. We believe in the power of healing, the power of prayer, and the power of your presence. But Lord, through this early evening devotional time, Lord, we've had a fierce day already, and we need peace, release, and trust. Will you help us to trust you? Lord, as this evening starts to unfold, Lord, as the sun will start to set soon, live in London, England, we call on the God of Abraham. We call on the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. We call on the God above all gods. We call on the God of Israel. We call on Jehovah Jirah, Jehovah Nissi. Father, we've had a long stretch at work. Lord, school and college is tiring. Life is wearing. Lord, just living and breathing sometime is so tiring, Lord. The exhaustion that we feel. So, Lord, as we pray out live from London, England. Lord, we pray for Mexico City. We pray for Melbourne, Lisbon. We pray for Davos. We pray for France and Italy. We pray right now for Israel, the peace over Jerusalem. And wherever we live, whatever the colour, whatever the walk is, whatever the fabric of our life looks like, Lord, as we are tapped into life itself, I thank you that nothing can separate us from the love of God that is found in Christ Jesus. So dear God, I ask you that the book of Philippians 4, verse 6 will carry us through this evening. You tell us, Lord, not to be anxious about anything, but in every situation, in every trial, through every trouble, let the peace of God guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. So Lord, we slow down. Lord, we ask you that this prayer will help us to slow down because Lord, our minds are racing at such a pace from the battlefield to the boardroom, to the cry, Lord, of life, the cry is Jesus, the cry is Holy Spirit, the cry is God, the cry is Jehovah Jirah, the cry is please, Lord, help us. Will you stop me overthinking? Lord, will you remove this anxiety? Lord, all I seem to be praying for lately, Lord, is overthinking anxiety and for stress to go. But Lord, we are living in a world that is so fragile, that is so thin, so spiritually thin. Lord, we need a God. We need the King. We need the great I am. Father, as the Bible says, Lord God, you are the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. Lord God, we come to the cross of Calvary. Lord, we're weary and we're tired. We've had a long old run today, but we believe in the power of healing. We believe that we are healed from anxiety. We believe that our mind is not overthinking. We believe that the stress on our lives and in our hearts and in our minds are going. We pray for the wasteland of the mind, the battlefield of the thoughts, the pattern of our lives. Lord, we need to live by peace, trust, and hope. And we come to you, Lord, at this hour. Lord, for this early evening devotional prayer time from the four corners of the world, we stretch out to Jesus and we say, Thank you, Father. Thank you, Lord, that you are with us, that all things are possible to those who believe. So, Lord, in the quietness as we gently remove ourselves from this prayer time together, the Bible tells us do not be anxious about anything. And the peace of God will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Have a beautiful evening tonight. Wherever you are, I invite you to join me later on as we indulge in more prayer, as the Spirit of the Lord will carry you. Don't ever give up. God bless you and thank you for joining me for these moments of prayer. Have a beautiful evening in Jesus' name. God bless you.
