Our Father…
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil. Mt 6:9-13 (ESV)
Our Father Who Is In Heaven
honoured, revered and praised is your awesome name! Draw close to us, and help us to draw close to you. Increase our awe of you daily. Blow our minds with your bigness, your goodness, your love, your power, your creativity, and your nearness. Open our spiritual eyes to see you ten times more clearly than we ever have. Let us get wowed in awe of you! Open our spiritual ears to hear you ten times more clearly than we ever have—your precious rhema voice! I give you my body, my soul, and my spirit, for your use anytime, anywhere, for anything, at any cost. Use them Lord, for your honor and your glory forever and ever.
May Your Kingdom Come
and your will be done here on this tiny speck of dirt called earth, just as it is in heaven. We know the god of this world would hate that, but we cry out even louder to you Father...you’re Kingdom is welcome and desperately needed here on earth! Please bring it. May your Kingdom come and your heavenly will be done here in my family, my entire tribe, my city, my country and in every family and business, legislature, city hall, court, school, university and church around the world. Supply wise leaders in these places and bless them with wisdom, spiritual freedom, and prayer support. Remove leaders of foolishness from their influence. I know it will take great battles in the heavenlies for your Kingdom to invade the spiritual darkness on earth—for your will is so completely opposite of satan’s, but please dispatch your armies of angels to fight the necessary battles, even as the archangel Michael helped fight the evil angel of Persia for twenty-one days before breaking through to Daniel! Be merciful and dispatch your big guns, that your Kingdom come and your will be done here on earth where satan and his legions of demons are so actively deceiving, stealing, killing and destroying lives. Raise up and protect and empower your people to bring light and life and freedom that comes only through the precious shed blood of Jesus. Raise up workers to work in the ripe harvest fields of planet earth. Thank you for the authority you have given us through Jesus over the enemy. Help us to use it well. Give us a Spirit of wisdom and revelation to walk in love with You and in sync with your perfect wisdom, the wisdom of the tri-universe which you have created—the physical universe, the social universe, and the spiritual universe. Help us to follow the order you have established in all three of these, with our body, soul, and spirit. We trust you and we trust your ways.
Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread
Thank you for your love and kindness and favour especially toward those who love you and have awe and respect for you. Bless your people with protection, provision and prosperity. Thank you that in wisdom’s right hand is long life, and in her left hand are riches and honour. Supply us and your angelic armies richly to do battle with great strength, both here on earth and in the heavenlies. Help us help the poor and needy, those in bondage, and the persecuted. May those responsible for persecution and oppression be stopped, and come to know Jesus.
Forgive Our Sins
as we forgive those who sin against us. Lord, we can be so frail, so forgetful, so short sighted, so feeble, so selfish, so prideful, so impatient, so sinful, so unlike you. Please forgive us, and help us to forgive those who sin against us, for we have been forgiven much. Enable us to forgive them genuinely, mercifully, and from the bottom of our hearts so that you can forgive us. Help us to be like Jesus in love and mercy and grace and power and wisdom.
Lead Us Not Into Trials
and tests but deliver us from evil. We see how you allowed Job to be tested when you briefly lifted your wall of protection from around him and his family. Satan wasted no time taking advantage, stealing, killing, and destroying. Please instead, raise up and increase the wall of protection around us and bless us as you blessed Job before and after his trial. Heal our bodies. Heal our souls. Heal our spirits. May we live in great faith and righteousness as Job did, bringing great honour to your Kingdom. For yours is the Kingdom, the power and the glory, forever and ever. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Prayer To Be Spiritually Fit
Each of us is in a continuous spiritual war, whether armed or not. Is your armour on?
Heavenly Father, Help Us To Live Consciously In The Spirit Realm…
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.
That being the case Heavenly Father, we desire to be strong in the strength of Your might. Help us to be diligent to put on every piece of Your armour and live in it, that we may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. Help us Lord, to be diligent to put on:
the belt of truth
the breastplate of righteousness
the shoes of readiness given by the gospel of peace
the shield of faith to extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one
the helmet of salvation
the sword of the Spirit which is the Rhema voice of God
and continuous prayer & requesting as the Holy Spirit leads.
For the sake of Your Kingdom, help us to keep alert with all perseverance, praying for all the saints. Give us words to boldly proclaim the mystery of the gospel, that we may declare it boldly, as we ought to speak. In Jesus’ name. AMEN.

Prayer For Wisdom, Revelation, And Growth
Warning: Praying for growth means praying for change!
Dear Heavenly Father, please soften our hearts and give us a continual eagerness to repent of anything in our lives that is displeasing to you. Help us not to tolerate complacency, religiosity, pretense, lukewarm Christianity, or any other sin in our lives. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. James 4:8; Rev 3; 2Chr 7:14; Eph 4:3; Mt 6:12-15
Stir in us a huge awe of You and keep us from any ungodly fear of man that hinders our bold, politically incorrect voice of truth in the world. Mt 10:28; Is 51:7; Prov 1:7; Ps 111:10
Help us to lead people into true salvation that is based on turning from sin and turning to God through faith in Jesus Christ—true faith that is visible by its works like the Bible teaches. Help us to rescue people from the false gospel that promises them salvation because they said ‘the prayer’ once upon a time, even though they are not following You. James 2:17; Mt 7:21-23; 1Jn 2:3-6; Heb 5:9
May we be like the early church, pointing the lost to you with the help of Your powerful signs and wonders, knowing that the supernatural stuff of Acts is still a normal possibility today as we walk in obedience and growing faith. Help us to be very unsatisfied with doing only what we can in our natural strength to build the church. Do infinitely more than we dare to ask or hope, in us and through us. 1Cor 14:39-40; 1Thes 5:19-21; Rev 3:1-3; Rom 15:18-19; 1Cor 13:8-12; Acts
May we eagerly pursue both the fruit of the Spirit AND the gifts of the Spirit. May they grow and flow through us more and more for Your glory. We especially desire the fruit of love and the gift of prophecy as we are taught in 1Cor 14:1; Gal 5:22-24
Increase our faith. Continually take away our unbelief so that we would not merely believe in Jesus, but would believe all that Jesus says. Help us to take His words at face value for today. Eph 6:16; Mt 17:20; Heb 11:1; 1Thes 3:10
Unleash apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers according to Ephesians 4:11. Unleash each of us as priests, equipped and encouraged to operate in our natural and supernatural giftings as part of your living temple, in unity with all true believers. 1Cor 13, 14; 1Peter 2:5; Eph 4:11
Give us good judgment to accurately discern wolves in sheep’s clothing and the courage to be intolerant of them, their false teachings and all cults. Eph 1:17; Mt 7:15; 1Cor 5:7-13; 2Thes 3:14; 1Jn 4:1; 2Tim 3:5-8; Malachi 3:18; Rom 16:18; 2Jn 1:9-11
Give us spiritual wisdom and revelation, practical wisdom, and financial wisdom. James 1:5; Jn 16:13; Lk 24:45; Eph 1:15-23
Help us to see people and things in light of eternity and the spiritual universe, without being blinded by the things of this temporal world. 1Pet 3:12; Mt 6:10
Send warring angels to surround us and our families, to help and to protect us. May your kingdom come and may your will be done here on earth just as it is in heaven. Ps 91:11; Mt 18:10; Daniel 10:4-21; Rev 1:20; Mt 6:9-13
Help us to make disciples within an atmosphere of love, joy, friendship, fun, freedom, creativity, mercy, prayer, teaching, awe of You, and worship. Mk 16:19; Gal 5:22; Jer 31:4; Acts 2:42-44
Give us wisdom to know at what points to depart from tradition in order to follow you in truth. Help us to do life and church according to the Bible plus nothing, and the Bible minus nothing. Give us boldness and courage to speak and to act according to the Spirit and the Word, even when it requires changing our ways. Transform us. Take out of our minds what is twisted or wrong and put into us what is true and right. Deut 4:2; Mt 15:14; Rom 16:17-18; 1Cor 4:19-20; 2Tim 3:16
Help us never to be satisfied to only be spoon-fed from the pulpit. Challenge us to grow up and feed ourselves from your Word, to listen to your Spirit, to examine and question all things, keeping what is good and throwing away what is evil just like the Bereans did. Rom 12:1-2; 1Thes 5:19-22; Acts 17:11
Forgive us when we’ve taken our enemy lightly, for treating a roaring lion like a tame pussycat, for acting like he and millions of demons aren't a real force to be reckoned with today. Help us to take up the authority you have given us to discern and cast out demons, setting captives free. 1Pet 5:8; Eph 6:12; Mk 16:15-18; 1Cor 12:10; Luke 4:18; Luke 11:23; Rom 16:20
Come upon us with Your Spirit to anoint us with the power that Jesus walked with; to preach the gospel to the poor, to heal the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of Yahweh. Eph 1:19-20; Acts 1:8; John 14:12; Luke 4:18; Acts 10:38
As we gain BIG AWE and respect for You, make us wise, compassionate, righteous, successful, prosperous, generous, influential, and triumphant, for Your glory and your kingdom. Psalm 112; 1Chronicles 4:10; Prov 1:1-3; 3:15-16, 8:17-21, 24:3-4; Deut 28
We bless Israel, Your special people, and thank You for grafting us into their family tree. Gen 12:1-3; Rom 11:17-36; Rom 15:27; Psalm 122:6
Above all, increase our intimacy with You. May we love You more each consecutive day of our lives. Help us to draw close to You. Draw close to us, Yahweh. Come be obviously present with us. Show us Your glory. Reveal to our hearts—not just to our minds—Your character, Your love, and Your holiness. Fill us with Your passion, Your purity, and Your power. Reveal Yourself and Your will to us by words, miracles, signs, wonders, visions, and dreams, all by Your Spirit. Mt 6:6; James 4:8; Acts 2:17-21; Psalm 63; Mt 22:37; 1Cor 13
And in Jesus' name, with the authority and the commission I have been given according to Mt 18:18; Luke 10:19; Mt 12:29; Mk 16:15-18; 2Cor 10:4-5; Eph 6:12, I wrestle against and resist every ungodly spirit behind religiosity, legalism, anti-christ, complacency, spiritual passivism, infirmity, pride, tradition, materialism, prostitution, strife, divorce, deception, fear, bondage, perversion, jealousy, mammon, new age, false religion and every other foul spirit that is warring against revival in me, my family and my church. May God’s kingdom come and His will be done in my life, my family, my church, my city, my province, my country and beyond, just as it is in heaven today.
In short, help us to become like Jesus, and make disciples. In Jesus’ name. AMEN
Paul’s Prayer Is Our Prayer For You
May God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. We pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope He has given to those He called—His holy people who are His rich and glorious inheritance.
We also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe Him.
This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated Him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms. Now He is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made Him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is His body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with Himself.
