Spiritual Healing – Prayers from Gordon Selley – March 16, 2009
“Heavenly Father…
I call you by the strength and stability of Your name today…Throughout this weekend I experienced short blasts of fear…Lord, it was like the fear came upon me; I didn’t just create havoc from my own imaginations…’Teach me Your way, O Lord, and lead me in a level path because of my foes. Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries…’I thank you that this walk of faith brings me closer to Your reality…Your voice is truly powerful…When I look into the morning sunrise, I wonder at Your creative beauty. Since Jake is pondering about You at the beach, I can’t help but to think about how Your voice crosses over the tops of the water. You’re everywhere, sovereign in Your providence of mankind and creation…Lord, forgive this nation for turning its back on You so flippantly and often. I personally cry out to You for Your forgiveness of our nation that is stubborn in materialism and power and arrogance…’For there is no authority except from God’…and I pray for wisdom and understanding to penetrate the heart and mind of President Obama…Teach our leadership about righteousness and may Your Spirit guide those who have the authority to make national and international decisions to do so with You as the head…Lord, we’re desperate for You…For those who believe, we long to see Your face…For those who don’t believe…teach all who have been called to evangelism, to speak Your truth in love, abandoning any tone of judgment or self-righteousness…May our hearts be consecrated by the blood of Your grace…In the name of Jesus…Continue to show us mercy and compassion while we sort out this new way to live by faith…I sense today with You that time is drawing near…Continue to guide us in the preparation of Your house…Gird us in Your strength for the final day of salvation…Protect those who are defenseless…And give us discernment by Your Holy Spirit. It is the desire not to cause anyone to stumble because of our judgmental interpretation of Your Holiness…Thank you for the opportunity to spend time with You, the Holy One…In the name of the Almighty, bless all who desire to pray more and who are willing to fully surrender to You…
May these words be blessed by Your Spirit…Amen…”
