Good morning and welcome back to Our Care Let's Pray Ministries. I am your host, DBC, and I'm very grateful that you all woke up this morning and tuned in to listen. I pray that God fills this whole podcast, the rooms that we're in, the cars that we're in. I pray that God fills our presence with his presence. Amen. I pray that God sends his anointing power to fill the spaces that we're in this morning. Amen. I pray that God let this day be an awesome day, a magnificent day, and a powerful day. I am praying that today you smile more than what you did yesterday, that you rejoice more today than what you did yesterday, and that you let God in to have his way. Let us go to the Lord in prayer. Holy Father, in the name of Jesus, we come before you with humble, with a humble and thankful heart saying thank you, oh God. God, we thank you for this opportunity to gather again once more in your presence. Honey Father, we invite you into our conversation. Let every word spoken bring peace, bring light, understanding, and encouragement. For the listener who feels alone, remind them they are not forgotten. For the one who feels overwhelmed, bring them calmness in their spirit, oh God. I pray. Open up each and every one of our hearts, oh God, to your truth today. Let your presence be felt in every moment of this podcast. God, we give you the glory, we give you the honor, and we give you the praise right now. In your darling Sunday Christ's name, we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. I want you to know we may not always feel God, but his presence does not depend on our feelings. Life can get busy, stress can take over, pain can distract us, and in those moments, it becomes easy to feel like we are walking through things alone. But I want you to know the truth of God's word tells us something different. He is not distant, he is not absent, he is near. And awareness of his presence changed everything, how we think, how we respond, and how we endure. Sometimes we have to ask ourselves, now I remember saying this in church one time. How would you move differently if you knew God was sitting by you every day? How would you respond differently if you knew God was walking with you every day where you could physically see him and he's writing notes about your life? How would you do things differently when you know, without a shut off of death, that you're in his presence, right? Because it's easy to say one thing and then do another, and it's another to know that you're in his presence. You don't want to do anything wrong. You won't do everything right, right? So this is how we have to look at life. As every day, walking and talking as if God is right there beside us because he is. He can be everywhere at one time, he can be everywhere in one second. So this is how we reflect his love with responding with God's walking with me daily, right? And so we have to be aware of his presence, aware that he is with us, aware that he's walking with us, aware that he is speaking life into our bodies, amen. And I want you to know that we have to be fully aware that God is doing something new in our life each and every day, right? And we get close to God in prayer when we pray. When we pray in our quiet moments, in gratitude, in choosing to acknowledge Him, even in small things, God's there. Peace often comes not from changing your situation, but from remembering who is in it with you. God is with us each and every day. We are not alone. In every moment, whether it's joyful or difficult, God is present. When we become more aware of Him, our perspective begins to shift, right? What once felt overwhelming begins to feel manageable. What once felt heavy begins to feel lighter. Living with awareness of God's presence brings peace, confidence, and strength into our daily lives. It doesn't mean problems disappear. It just means we are never facing them alone. He said, I will be a bridge over troubled water. He said, I'm your rod, I'm your staff, and I'm your comforter. He said, I'm your prince of peace. He said, I am your joy in sorrow. He said, I am your great physician, right? God is with us always. He created us in his own image. He loves us unconditionally. And even when we don't think he's there, God is there. He's moving, he's speaking, he's responding. We just have to learn to be still. Amen. Let us go to the Lord in prayer. Heavenly Father, thank you for reminding us that we are never alone. Lord, help us to become more aware of your presence in every part of our lives, oh God. When we feel alone, Heavenly Father, remind us that you are there. When we feel overwhelmed, Heavenly Father, steady our hearts. When we feel distracted, bring us back to you, O God, I pray. Open up our eyes, O God, to see you in the small moments, in peace, in silence, in everyday life, oh God. Let your presence become our comfort, our strength, and our confidence. Teach us not to rely on our feelings or our emotions, oh God, but on your promise. You said you would never leave us, oh God. You said you would never forsake us, oh God. And we hold on to that truth today. We hold on to it when we get up in the morning. We hold on to it when we lay down at night, oh God. Walk with us in our thoughts and our decisions and our conversations and our daily routines, oh God. And Heavenly Father, Lord, O God Almighty, please let us feel your presence today. Let your presence bring healing where there is pain and peace where there is anxiety. And help us to surrender all to you, oh God, because we cannot do it on our own, Heavenly Father. God, let us feel your touch today. Help our unbelief today, oh God. God, let us be able to know that we had an encounter with you today, oh God. God, we're seeking a word from you this morning. We're looking for a touch from you this morning. We're looking for comfort from you this morning. God, help your way. Have your way, oh God. God, we love you. We love you. We love you. It's in Jesus Christ's name we pray. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Thank you all for tuning in to our Care Let's Pray Ministries. I pray this message reminds you that you are never alone. God is always with us each and every day. He said, I will never leave you nor forsake you. I want you to always remember that God gets the glory. So praise his holy name today. Take care and walk in peace, knowing he is with you. Amen. Have a good day. This is Our Current Let's Pray Ministries.
