Praise:
It is exciting to serve a God who delights in our prayers (Prov. 15:8b). Not only that, but He actually waits to do His will until He finds someone to ask Him to do it (Ezek. 36:37).
-
Abba, we bless You that You can freely do whatever You desire (Jer. 32:17, 27), yet Messiah tells us that we are to participate with You by asking for Your will to be done on earth (Luke 11:2).
-
We thank You that before You judge a nation, You first seek out an intercessor to stand in the gap between You and that nation, pleading for You to have mercy (Ezek. 22:30-31).
-
We praise You for the confidence that we have that whenever we pray in line with Your will – You will hear and answer [obviously in His way and in His timing] (1 John 5:14-15).
-
Lord God, thank You for encouraging us to persist in prayer and to not give up (Luke 18:1).
-
Bless You for telling us that often the reason we do not have is because we do not ask (Jam. 4:2b).
-
Lord, we rejoice that You are totally sovereign over the nations today (Psa. 103:19; 1 Pet. 3:22).
