Urgent pray for my friend Cheryl —deliverance from a destructive life and her salvation through the blood of our savior Lord Jesus Christ

Mike,Thank you for leaving your request. My prayer for Cheryl is that she might be tormented by her sin until she finds rest from Jesus as her Lord and Savior.
Sin must torment before we realize that it is our enemy, and not a friend.
God bless you Mike as we pray.

Father, YOU have written in YOUR Word that “Forever O Lord, Thy Word is settled in heaven”, and that is what I am trusting and believing. YOU are God. There is no other. All that others call gods are the figments of human imagination, and the imaginations of unredeemed man is wicked and vile.
YOU are holy, just, and righteous. YOU have loved us, the people of YOUR creation. People who YOU created after YOUR image and in YOUR likeness. Yet, we have sinned, and because of our sin have fallen short of YOUR glory. Save all, Lord, who have called on YOUR holy name, trusting the sacrificial death of YOUR holy Son Jesus on the cross.
Father, Lord of Lights; Savior, Sustainer, Redeemer, Lord, Master, YOU alone are worthy of praise. When I see the clear blue sky I know YOU have made it for my good. When I see the clouds of the storm roll across the sky, and begin to build into a loud, thunderous, lightning filled roaring thunderstorm, I hear YOU say, “The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked the LORD hath His way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of His feet” (Nahum 1:3 KJV). By that I know Lord, that YOU are in control.
Lord, though I do not understand every situation, every tragedy, I know and believe that YOU alone direct the affairs of men, and YOU have YOUR way in our hearts. We don’t always like or appreciate that, and there are many who argue and debate against that, but that makes no difference, because YOU will have YOUR way with us all.
All those who are wicked will be turned into judgment, and those whom YOU have called Righteous through YOUR Son Jesus will be joined with YOU in glory.
Father, my requests is that many will hear YOUR voice today, and come out of darkness into the wonderful and glorious light or our Savior. May they see Jesus – the innocent, pure, sinless, undefiled – lifted up on that cross taking the judgment of our sins from YOUR own hand. It way YOUR hand Father, which struck YOUR own Son in our behalf, making reconciliation with YOU possible. We owed YOU the price for sin. We sinned against YOU, and the price was to be paid in full. It was either our death, or the death of the Mediator – Jesus Christ – who willingly lay down His life into YOUR hands. Blessed be the name of the Lord.
Father, convict and convince people of sin today. Convict and convince people of Jesus’s sacrificial death for our sins. Lead many to repentance and to salvation through the crucified, buried, and resurrected Lord Jesus Christ. Thank YOU for the promise that Jesus is returning someday. His return will not be as a baby in a crib, but as the resurrected Lord of lords, and King of kings; then, this earth will be His in power and glory.
Bless the name of Jesus. In His name. AMEN.
Need For Revival June 27, 2007

Spiritual Awakening, Spiritual Renewal, Revival, whatever you want to call it; we need it. At least I know that I do.
My idea of Revival is God coming into our presence, renewing our passion for Him, His placing in us a desire for all that is holy, righteous, and just, putting in our hearts a love for all those things, and hatred for all that is vile, evil and wicked. That those things might be a stench in our nostrils, just as it is in His.
Also, Revival being a renewed passion for seeing the lost come to saving faith in Jesus Christ. The cross of Jesus being lifted high. The death, burial and resurrection being proclaimed in power and for His glory. Having a new heart for the worship of the Lord, and daily fellowship with Him, walking with Him. Loving Him with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength even if we don’t see any move from Him.
Lord God, send down YOUR fire. The fire of cleansing and renewing. The fire of passion for all that is good, godly, righteous, and just. The fire that ignites in godly anger at all that is against YOU.
Lord, when the world raises up its dragon head against YOU through us, then, Lord give us strength to face the dragon, and know this one is a defeated foe. YOU defeated him on the cross. Give us wisdom also, that we may know when we face his temptations to flee to the cross.
Thank YOU Lord for the victory you have won. The victory of the cross, and the proof of the resurrection. Because YOU love us we love YOU. Because YOU live, we live. Thank YOU Lord. Amen.
