Good morning, everyone. Welcome to another episode of our EBC Prayer Podcast. 

Remember, I am your host. I am Dr. Victoria Haddad, the First Lady and Prayer Warrior of Elyon Bible Church Apostolic in New Jersey. We're joining with the songwriter. There is power in the name of Jesus.
 Power that can break every chain in our lives and give us the hope that we need in the God that we serve.

Today is March 7th, the 66th day of the year, and God is still blessing us and still working in our lives, in ways that we didn't think possible. 

Today, our scripture will be taken from Psalm 34:17, which reads: “The righteous cry, and the Lord heareth, and delivereth them out of all their troubles.” 
 
 The Lord is reminding us that it doesn't matter what you are going through; if we pray, God will hear our cry, because there is power in the name of Jesus. We want him to break every chain in our lives, chains that are in our friends' lives, in our family lives, and in the lives of everyone who is praying today. 

We are going to pray that every chain that is lingering in the lives of those we know, God will break.
 
 So let us pray. 

Father, thank you for your grace and your mercy. Thank you, Lord God, for everything you have done in our lives. Thank you for reminding us that no matter what life throws our way, you have the power to break all of those chains in our lives and help us have a great day. 

Father, we are praying and surrendering to you because we know that you are a wonderful God. We know that you are the holy God. We know that you are a powerful God. We know that you are the God who can do mighty things in our lives. We realize that nothing is impossible for you. No matter what life is throwing our way, we can rest assured that you will intervene, that you will come and break those chains in our lives, the stronghold, those disappointments, those sadness, those things that are taking hold of our lives. You will break those chains, remove them, and set us free. 

Lord, we are praying and thanking you for reminding us that you, the righteous, can cry unto you. We can cry unto you. And you will intervene, and you will help, and you will deliver, and you will set us free.

God, thank you for reminding us. As we go through this day, we are praying for your guidance and surrendering ourselves to you. Father, we are asking you that all those who are going through issues, that you hear their cry and that you answer their cry.
 
Thank you for reminding us that there's power in your name. And you, God, can break every chain and every issue in our lives that can cause disappointment or sadness, and issues that cause the tears in our hearts to flow, but help us to rejoice with tears of joy, tears of gladness, because of what you have done and can continue to do in our lives. Help us to pray with assurance and rejoice, for you, said you will hear our cry. You will deliver us, and you will keep us safe, out of all our troubles, and all the trials of life. 

Lord, sometimes life comes with trouble. Sometimes, friends come with trouble. Sometimes, family comes with trouble. But, God, you see the need of everyone who is praying. You see the issues that everyone is going through. Some are disappointed. Some are sad. Some are broken. So many are hurting throughout this world. But, Lord, God, we are praying that you bring unity in the family, unity in the friends, unity in the household, unity in the churches. 

Lord, break every chain and stronghold in our lives that caused us, at times, to feel like we need to reach out more to you because of the pain in our hearts. But break every chain, God, and every stronghold. Hear the cry of us, your people. Raise us up to the level you desire for us to be. 

God, you see all of our church leaders. You see everyone in leadership. Everyone who is praying and surrendering to you. God, raise them higher so that we don't linger in the things that are not pleasing to you. But we will rise to the call of your step for us, because you are God, and nothing is impossible for you. So, we thank you for the reminder. Hear our cry.
 
Father, hear our cry and deliver us and set us free from everything that is rising in our lives that is causing pain. Set us free, and help us to pray and trust you, because you are God and you have the power to do more for us than we can do for ourselves. So, we thank you for reminding us to pray. And we thank you for the assurance that you will hear our cry. You will answer our prayer, and you will deliver us from trouble. In your mighty, holy, and wonderful name, we pray…Amen.
 
Thank you, Lord. I want to encourage all of you who are praying. Give God thanks as you go to this day.
Surrender all your issues to him and believe that he's a God who will hear and answer your prayer. And he will break those changes in your life. Have a great day, and we'll pray again tomorrow…Bye-bye.
