John 14:27 — My Peace I Give To You This Evening Live from our studios in London, England — where faith meets the world in daily prayer and global hope. Adelaide • Queenstown • Singapore • Phoenix • Montevideo PEACE • RELEASE • REST Good evening, and welcome to DailyPrayer.uk. I’m Reverend Ben Cooper. Come in for five minutes, let’s open God’s Word together, and let’s pray. As this day begins to draw towards its close, there may still be conversations echoing in your thoughts, responsibilities waiting for tomorrow or burdens that feel too heavy to carry alone. Before this evening slips away, take a quiet moment to pause in God’s presence. His peace is not hurried, and neither do we need to hurry as we come before Him. John 14:27 (NIV) “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.” These words remind us that the peace of Jesus is unlike anything the world can offer. It is not dependent upon perfect circumstances but upon His faithful presence with us. As this evening unfolds, let’s quietly remind ourselves that fear will not win, because Christ has given us His peace, and His peace is greater than every anxious thought. Father, thank You for Your goodness throughout this day. Thank You for every quiet mercy, every unseen protection and every reminder that You have remained close beside us. Lord Jesus, receive every burden we still carry. Bring healing to those who are unwell, comfort to those who feel lonely, wisdom to those facing important decisions and peace to every restless heart. Help us to leave today’s worries with You and trust You with everything that tomorrow may bring. Holy Spirit, calm our minds, renew our strength and help us finish this day resting in the assurance of Christ’s unfailing love. Across the world, from Adelaide to Queenstown, from Singapore to Phoenix and Montevideo, may every listener discover the lasting peace that Jesus alone gives and carry that peace into the evening ahead. Jesús, Tu paz llena mi corazón esta noche. Jesus, a Tua paz enche o meu coração nesta noite. Jesus, punuin Mo ng Iyong kapayapaan ang aking puso ngayong gabi. Amen.

Welcome And A Word Of Hope

SPEAKER_00

Welcome to Daily Prayer. I'm Reverend Ben Cooper coming into you live from our studios in London, England. Let's open God's word together and let's pray together. Wherever you are, don't ever give up. The love of God is over your life.

When Prayer Feels Like A Struggle

SPEAKER_00

We are tired. We are wary. Do you ever find prayer sometimes a struggle? You're struggling for your vocabulary. Just like me in the studio, you can hear it some days, but don't ever give up. Come on. The spiritual warfare is strong, but our God is greater than any battle. We're gonna jump straight away through. Join me for four minutes to five minutes, and we're gonna go to the Gospel of John 14, 27. This is the title of the prayer. My peace I give to you this evening, right now. I need that peace, Lord, at this hour, at this evening, at this early evening devotional prayer time. Lord, I need peace. Lord, my bones are wearing, my back is tired. Holy Spirit, Lord, I'm struggling for words, I'm struggling for energy.

Pausing After A Frantic Day

SPEAKER_00

We're exhausted. We've had a long day. Spirit of the living God, as this evening starts to slip away, I pray that you will take us to a quiet corner of the world, that you will

Handing Over The Baton Of Burdens

SPEAKER_00

take us to a quiet place where we can pause in the presence of God. Because Lord, we've been talking all day, we've been working all day, Lord. Life has been frantic. And as we stretch out from the four corners of this studio, live from London, England, all the way to Adelaide, all the way to Queenstown, Singapore, Phoenix, Montreal. Father, we're looking for revival rain tonight. Lord, I pray, Lord, for those conversations that are still echoing in my thoughts, the responsibilities that are weighing us down. Lord, help us as we get ready for this hour. Spirit of the Living God, wherever we are, Lord, if we're carrying too much stuff. And Lord, that word stuff represents so much. Holy Spirit, help us to hand on the baton. Lord, as we run round the track of life, Lord, we are carrying a baton. And Lord, we need to hand this baton over to the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Lord, through this relay race of life, I need to let go of the baton of fear, the baton of doubt, the baton of uncertainty, the baton, dear God, of responsibilities, the baton of the world. Help me to let go of this baton and to let God. And Lord, until I let go of the baton of life, Father, I'm going to be wrestling with myself. And Lord, I don't want to wrestle with my thoughts. I don't want to wrestle with my responsibilities. I don't want to wrestle with the rhythm of my history. I don't want to wrestle with my present. I don't want to wrestle with the thoughts of what lies ahead. Lord, I want to walk in the Spirit of the living God.

John 14:27 Peace Over Fear

SPEAKER_00

And Lord, as we pray through John 14, 27, the Bible says, Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled. And do not be afraid. Father, it is easy to read Jesus. But Holy Spirit, as I pray, I pray right now, Lord, that our hearts will not be troubled. I pray, Lord, that we will walk in a supernatural rhythm. Lord, as we call on the God of David who fights our unseen battles, Lord, we thank you, Lord. Make us a channel of your peace. Holy Spirit, Lord, let peace, dear God, just press down on us right now. Lord, we don't want trouble. We don't want fear. We don't want to be afraid. Lord, at this hour, Lord, remind us right now that fear will never win. That we're walking in the Spirit of the Lord. Lord, as we are on the ballroom of life, Lord, as we're dancing our way through life, we're crawling our way through life. We're crying our way through life. Lord, we are, Lord, in a position, Lord, that we don't want to be in. Lord, Holy Spirit, will you take us from where we are? Dear God, I pray that you will meet us exactly where we are right now. And before this evening tries to shape us, before this evening, dear God, starts to progress. Lord, help us to pause in the presence of Almighty God, Jehovah Jireh, Jehovah Nisi, Jehovah Shalom. Lord, you are the God of David. Holy Spirit, we call on you right now. On whatever battle we're going through, whatever fear we are facing, we pray that John 14, 27 will be alive in our spirit. Lord, that we will find peace. The peace that you leave us. My peace I give to you. I do not give as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. Lord, I pray at this hour this will be so relevant for our lives. Help us to let go of the baton that we carry.

Blessing Healing And Next Prayer Invite

SPEAKER_00

Help us to recover on the track of life. Holy Spirit, bless us from the crown of our head to the very sole of our feet. I pray that we will continue the journey of prayer together through the power and the name of Jesus Christ. Lord, I ask you that there will be healing, grace, and your mercy in Jesus' name. God bless you. Have a beautiful evening. Don't ever give up. But will you join me just a few hours down the track of time as we indulge and as we pray through the last moments of this day? And also, please, thank you so much for pausing, for staying with me when I make mistakes. And also, please, can you go into the back library, have a listen to the prayers, share them out. They're for you and for me. God bless. I will catch you really soon.
