PRM Harvest Prayers 5b: Scatter Drill

Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, You are a Master Scatterer. You began with 12 men. Within 40 days of Your ascention, there were 120 followers. Then on Pentacost, Peter preaches to people from many nations (Acts 2:9-11) and 3,000 conversions are recorded (Acts 2:41). Then came the healing of the lame man and within days, 5,000 more conversions (Acts 3-4).

Those people at Pentacost from many nations. How many people went back to their home country and brought the Gospel – the baton of salvation! ...was that another example of people in place "for such a time as this (4SaTaT)?"

What about PRM? The goal is the same: to bring people closer to Jesus. Would You consider another "scatter drill" with PRM, 4SaTaT?
I'm asking it.

Father, the technology today shields people from Truth. Truly, we see the lawlessness as people do what is right in their own mind. They make up their own truth and repeatedly proclaim it through social media channels. Truth is covered up and it has become extremely difficult to know what is true and what isn't.

Hear my plea, that we are desperate today to find truth and have a place that we can trust!

Enter PRM! I ask Your blessing here. A blessing that scatters PRM. Scale! from people to people.

Do You have a lineup of "influencers" to pass this on? I ask that as well!

Jesus, how can I not ask this!
How can I read Matthew 14:13-21 and not petition You? There were 5,000 men plus women and children (roughly: one woman and one child per man...that gives us 15,000). Can we please compare that example with today:

Here's what Your Word tells us?

1. You had compassion on the large crowd!
   I ask for Your compassion on all who would profit from PRM.
2. You saw that they were in a desperate place.
   Today, we also desperate, so much so that some doen't even know how desperate they are!
3. And You noted that "it was late."
   Father, Lord, Holy Spirit, truly, today, the time is late!
4. Your disciples wanted You to send people away to get something to eat.
   Today, where can they go? The "news" is so deceptive and YOU have admonished us not to be deceived!!!
5. Jesus, YOU said, "Give them something to eat."
   You have said the same today...with PRM.
6. The disciples found 5 loaves and 2 fish.
   I come on behalf of PRM. PRM is the "5 loaves and 2 fish" needed today.
7. It is recorded:"All ate and were satisfied."
   Hear my plea that thousands can come and be satisfied with PRM.
8. AND 12 baskets were left.
   Oh Father, Lord, Holy Spirit! THIS is what is in the PRM design! It's about what will be left when we are no longer on the earth!. YES
   PRM is designed to be what is left! ...for those who are left behind.

My God, my God, do I have Your ear?
Your heart?
Will You speak the word that scales PRM to the widest audience?

What about the story in Matthew 15:29-39? You fed 4,000 men, plus women and children. AGAIN. You did it again!

You took what was available and multiplied it! You "scattered" seven loaves and a few fishes. And seven baskets were left over. There was plenty!

I'm asking that You use PRM to feed thousands of thousands.

I come boldly!
Does this prayer align with Your Word:

1 Timothy 2:1-4
I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.

Father, I bring this petition. Help each person be focused and protect us from distraction. I bring PRM and ask for You to disseminate it to millions...for Jesus' kingdom soon coming.

PRM Harvest Prayers 5a: Click-bait

Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit! Thank You for the day. Thank You for the opportunities that You have orchestrated in the lives of each servant who seeks to serve You. We desire to use each action to the fullest and call upon You to enable us for the work at hand.

You are Lord of the Harvest.
You do not want that anyone should perish. We join You in Your desire. Each moment with PRM is time spent with You, in worship of Your kingship. Thank You.

• P Patient, Perfector, Peace, Powerful
• R Righteous, Radiant, Revelations, Resurrection, Redeemer
• M Majesty, Mediator, Minister, Morning Star

Can we please discuss scattering?
We are scattered.
Father, there are times we are scattered in our thinking and our actions. I don't think it's just me. So many "things," come at us from every direction. Has this been a strategy of the enemy to reduce our ability to focus deeply and for an extended period of time? Please help us.

How much of this is idolatry? Something intrigues us - an ad, a captivating picture, a caption that pricks our interests...and almost immediately, without thinking... BLAM!!! "click" ...it has taken Your place as "first in line" ...it's the next thing we attend to ... it has gone higher on our "interest feed" than You.

If it's even for a moment, Your work, Your call, our focus on Your Word..becomes secondary. These are secondary gods, intrusions, even if for a moment. Doesn't that make it idolatry? Idolatry is painful for You.

We don't think of idolatry much. Yet, in a click, we blindly devote our attention to something else. Oh have mercy. You know we are but flesh, yet, You are the Author of our skills and abilities. And You skill people with wisdom and understanding for the project at hand. Thank You.

Then wrought Bezaleel and Aholiab, and every wise hearted man, in whom the LORD put wisdom and understanding to know how to work all manner of work for the service of the sanctuary, according to all that the LORD had commanded. Exodus 36:1

Father, this idolatry is slick in a greasy sort of way - heinously clever. It is a scourge on our ability to complete Your work and it steals focus and time we can spend with You. Forgive us.

Grant us the gift and fruit of self-control. Place blinders on our hearts, our minds, our eyes to focus on PRM. Grant us the wisdom to eliminate the trolls that sneak in.
AND
We are all so good at justifying our desires that take us away from the focus needed for productivity. When we are exhausted, we have a readily available reason to take a break and in that moment the "click bait" awaits us.
BOOM.
A click, a scroll...
and we are caught, at least momentarily, and in jail.
Please bring Your living Word to us instead.


You are Jehovah Nissi:

And Moses built an altar, and called the name of it Jehovahnissi [that is, The Lord my banner]; Exodus 17:15

Fly Your banner over PRM;

• Over every person;
• Over their families and relationships;
• Over the sustenance needed for daily living: spiritual, emotional, physical.
• Over our rest each day, that it be deep and satisfying.

I ask it. Cover us, Lord of the Harvest:

• S Sovereign
• D Divine
• L Loving
• C Compassion

Maranatha.

PRM Harvest Prayers 4: Disperse

Hallelujah! You are God. Your judgements are right. Your ways are perfect. Your timing escapes our calendars. Thank You. Selah.

Sovereign God of Creation:

• What is not Yours?
• What does not belong to You...completely?
• What is outside of Your control?
• Is there anything that You have not thought about?
• Is there anything that escapes Your notice?


• What about communication?...are there languages You don't know or don't know about?
• Was there ever a time You had to learn something?
• Have cultures developed that surprised You?
• OK, what about technology? ...Is there code that You don't understand?

Selah.

You are manifold knowledge: You know all that has ever been and all that is, and all that will every be. Those who put their trust in You are secure: their past, present, and future. So we need not be afraid. We can go forward, strong and courageous. ...like Joshua.

Have not I commanded thee? Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the LORD thy God is with thee whithersoever thou goest. Joshua 1:9

How can we begin to comprehend Romans 8:30:

Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justified: and whom he justified, them he also glorified.

Glorified...really? Already? It's in past tense. It is already complete and done? Your kindness erases our fears.

Although You know the future, You don't mind, and even encourage us to bring every detail before You.

Truly, You don't "need" our prayers. But You enjoy time with us; time when we "muse" with You. Time of fellowship. How is it that The Most High God would fellowship with us mere humans?

HA! You don't NEED technology to fellowship with us!

But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. John 14:26

And so, we make our way.

• Father, hear our hearts as we partner with Your desire that all men be saved.


• We use technolgy, this technology, to feed our desire to help others connect with You –at scale...feed this desire. Bless AGI, Bless PRM.

SCATTER DRILL!
Scatter the site...Father, You scatter, distribute, disburse, disseminate! It's what You did in Genesis! ...when You created all the plants, the animals, the creepy-crawly things...the entire eco-system! Hallelujah!

And You asked us to do the same.

• Populate the earth. (Genesis 1:28)
• Spread the Gospel. (Mark 16:15-16)
• Make disciples.(Matthew 28:19)

WHY?
To demonstrate Your love and care and deep desire for fellowship and communion with You.

THAT is what AGI, and PRM is all about. Your love.

You have given us examples of dissemination!

Remember Babbel?

Genesis 11:8-9 So the Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.

Scatter AGI and PRM across the face of the earth! Cause people to "leave off" what they are doing to seek You with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength...

I ask it. That the baton is passed stealthily, handed off with a careful grip, without requiring the receivers to slow their pace, lose their grip, or diminish their confidence.

This can only happen with Your help. Pour Yourself into this project that it bless the Lord of the Harvest.
...a hundred fold? Why stop there?
Like Your forgiveness... Until seventy times seven (Matthew 18:22), as long as there is need. Thank You gracious Lord.

Hear our prayers, for Jesus' kingdom.

Maranatha.

PRM Harvest Prayers 3: Order & Process

God of Creation, God of the living. God who is strong to save! Yours is the Battle. No details escape You. You are God of eternity past and eternity future. Praise and glory belong to You alone.

I stand before You in awe. I cannot take my eyes off Your radiant presence, even though You are unseen. How is that?

My spirit bows before You for You are all seeing, all knowing, all being. Embrace this life, this project, in its fullness and bring forth all that You desire. Pour Yourself in and on Your servants, that all that comes forth is entwined in the goodness and love that You have for all who are and will be touched. Selah.

WARFARE
THe locusts have been loosed. They come with unyielding, voracious appetites to destroy this project. The sky is black with them. Their steel teeth are itching to find and destroy. Their eyes bulge and their wings flap tirelessly with hate for Your Word! Hate for Truth! Hate for Life!

Rise up O God, O Living Word. ...the Way, the Truth, and the Life! Rise up O King forever!

Send them after those pigs: over the cliff and into the lake! Call on a mountain to move over them and bury them.

O Good Shepherd, Door of Salvation, call Your host to protect every detail of this project. Clear the path to production. You, the God of the Living, speak life into this directive. Saturate Your servants with focus, process, and agility. Strengthen their resolve. Put blinders on their spirits to keep out distractions.

ORDER
You are God of Order. You touch every detail, from foundation to meticulous functionality. You have said so. Thank You.

Jeremiah 32:17 Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.

Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord: and he delighteth in his way.

There have been many steps. Thank You for walking alongside, for hovering over this project, for Your provision for each person, each step, and each need.

You are the God of Order.

You created Order and Process and command us to do the same:

1 Corinthians 14:40 “Let all things be done decently and in order.”

Today, this project moves to Production. Ignite it to serve Your purposes. Command order in this process to establish locked-in functionality to the structure –to yield Your purposes in the time of harvest.

PROCESS
As You established order, You established process. Both words are nouns and verbs.

You created the world through an order and then gave us Your orders on how to maintain it. (Have mercy on us as we have done poorly in obeying You.)

Process! You created the world as a process that could maintain itself. Establish Your processes to bring this project into availability to all whom You have selected.

Gracious Father, we need Your likeness: unity, order and process. As Your servants move PRM to production, unify their minds, their thinking and their conversations. Establish the order of movement, just as You did in creation.
Can we please review Your creation process together?

Day 1: the earth was formless and void, there was darkness. O God of Love, the enemy seeks to establish the darkenss again. Yet, You birthed this project to bring Light. Breakthrough every barrier in their way. Bring challenges to naught as chaff in the wind. Speak the words over PRM, "Let their be light." ...that it can en-lighten many.

Day 2: You separated the waters below from the waters above. Definition of catagories and subcategories? Speak the words that establish the visual functionality of PRM.

Day 3: So exciting. You established vegatation through the earth. You gave the earth capability to yield seed! An incredible process that demonstrates Your sovereign creativity even today! Establish this in PRM as well. You already established the model. May we have it?

Day 4: Lights! in heavens, separations for night and day. (It's kinda funny that we can choose light or dark mode on PRM...thank You.) They too, establish visibility for the user.

Day 5: O the awe of all the living things, in the waters, in the air. Creatures, great and small, that swarm and fly. Movement! They clearly portray Your Creation. They testify a Creator.

Father, I can only believe that You have already established the movement of this project.
First, I ask for clarity and ease in the move to production
Second, I ask for a spiritual magnet on PRM, to attract and draw every person to PRM that will bring profit to the Kingdom of Christ.
AND,
...as a magnet repels, I ask that every person or hands of the enemy that have harmful intentions be repelled. May they become blind to the project, and literally "dumb" in their speech and thinking.

Day 6: Man and woman. You made them in Your image...more than I can fathom and You blessed them. Today, You still honor us that we are in Your image. As You blessed them, I ask that every person who becomes a part of PRM be blessed as they logon.

Would You establish an "arch of entry" that touches their being and correlates the usability of this tool to bring them closer to You? I'm asking it. Isn't this Your kind of work? What seems impossible. Jesus, You have said it:

Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.
AND
Matthew 18:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
AND
John 10:9 I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

There! We have it. I call on You...that they may know that You are LORD. So much for camels and needles! So much for the difficulties that the rich endure. We cannot understand the impossible.

REQUEST: Do You have an annointing for PRM? I believe so. Establish Yourself as the door here: determine who enters and who does not.

Day 7: Rest. Thank you for rest. For every servant here, grant them the self-control to believe You and follow Your example to rest. To know that You made the sabbath for us.

Mark 2:27 “And he said unto them, The sabbath was made for man, and not man for the sabbath:”

Father, speak living words over PRM and those who serve You here;
Lord Jesus, enter in and sup with every visitor.
Holy Spirit, hover over these waters to point people to Jesus.

Jesus, You called us "friends," so I come to You with PRM and ask Your blessing. King forever, establish PRM as Your own 4SaTaT. All glory, blessings, honor and power to the Most High God.

Maranatha.

Dear reader, do you want to know Jesus as Savior. You can. Today.

PRM Harvest Prayers 2: The PRM DNA

Oh gracious Lord of the Harvest!
The fields are white, the harvest is ready and ripe. You see the fields from Your throne and have passed the baton to us to bring in the harvest. We come. This team comes, yearning for Your work; alert to hear Your voice and zealous to move swiftly.

You are our Creator. You made us, crafted our being: our spirit, our personalities, our intellect, our physical place: spirit, soul, mind, and strength.

We come, quietly, but so excited that it is hard to contain the exuberance we feel. We are driven and seek Your Holy Spirit of teach, lead, guide, propel us forward, and hold us back as needed -- that everything can be done in good order. You are the God of Order:

Colossians 1:16-17
For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him, all things hold together.

And You have given us this day. You have gone before us and surround us with Your presence. We bring this day, as an offering of worship. Holy Spirit, fill us completely, every nook and cranny, that nothing impedes Your work. As excited as we are, we bow at Your feet. We contain our exuberance and wait on Your Spirit.

DNA
The back end. The code itself.
Thank You that You are our "Rear guard."

Isaiah 52:12
12 For ye shall not go out with haste, nor go by flight:
for the Lord will go before you;
and the God of Israel will be your rear guard.

Father, the complexity of this app astounds me. Thank You for Your oversight in its making. Thank You for driving our dear brother in all the details. His labor is long. The vision to serve Your communities of need is deep...beyond our ability to embrace.

At creation, You put together the foundation to support all the details that would follow: The Genisis! The same goes for this project: the foundation to support the details. You didn't miss any details even all the hairs on our heads! As this project moves forward, bring forth and place all the details that need place.

The DNA here encompasses more than I can grasp.
This will be true for those who follow when this goes live.

Are there two strands here as well? All to be woven together to create unmeasurable outreach? Unlimited applications and purpose? I think so.
As this moves into production, call out the bugs! Make them squirm until they are noticed and eliminated!

The code. Testing. Bring to light the areas with potential to disrupt Your puposes for this tool.
Thank You.

FLESH AND BLOOD
You already know who will use this. You already have prupose and direction for every "user" that comes aboard. Is there a battle surrounding every user? Is there a battle around the "counterfeiters?" Disruptors? ...stewards of the enemy?

You know the battle and we come because Your Word calms our fears:

Your Words from Ephesians 6:12:
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Thank You.
You also remind us:

“...Thus saith the Lord unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” 2 Chronicles. 20:15
AND
“For the Lord your God is he that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.” Deuteronomy 20:4

Father, Lord, Holy Spirit, the battle rages. We don't even know where to look for it because it is all around us in every dimension. We rest in You. Protect our thinking to "think on these things" that every moment spent here glorifies You and blesses You.

...yes, when that happens it is truly a "good" day. >br>
We offer our days, our thinking, our imaginations, our open hearts to hear Your leading. Thank You for Your presence with us.

Prepare those who will use this tool. (Prepare US to use this tool!) Open their minds to see potential uses and needs. I ask that You knit their curiosities to this app. Place questions in their minds that draw them here. Give every user the ability and desire to "go deep." Would You consider giving them a "double portion" of excitement about this work? ...like Elisha?

THROW THE MANTLE!

1. Watchmen
2. Researchers
3. Enterprise
4. ???

JUGGLING
We bring our lives, our being, our workbenches and tables...and all "the other" that must be juggled. People to meet, to bring onboard. You gave them to us. Thank You for Your presence with us in our work and contemplations. Use us fully 4SaTaT.

All glory and blessings to the Most High God.

Maranatha.

PRM Harvest Prayers 1: Praise & Bless

You are Lord of the Harvest! All hail! Glory to Your Name. You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God. To You alone belong glory and honor and power! It is Your desire that ALL men be saved. These are Your words:

1 Timothy 2:3-5
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.

Oh God our hope, let us be joined together to spend our enegy, our complete lives to fulfill Your desire that ALL men be saved. Receive us for the work we can do for the Kingddom of Jesus Christ. We fall before You in adoration. YOU, who gave all that we might have salvation. YOU, who demonstrated complete obedience, that we could have life! YOU, who came that we can have access and relationship with the Father and now You are our Advocate before the Father. Yes, we fall in complete humility before You. We know we need forever to show our thanks and sing Your praises.

Draw us to You, cover us for this work. Hold our attention, on You and this work so that nothing impede the work of the day. Clear the air that we hear Your voice with clarity. Grant us focus on You and clear the air of gibberish and debris to bring clear fidelity to Your voice and the detailed instructions throughout our day and work.

You gave incredible detail on how to build the Tabernacle, the Tent of the Congregation! (Where did they get all that stuff? ...You provided.) You provided the physical resources, the process, the people and the needed talent...in the desert! So what's with the Stripe approval? It is needed before "go-live." You are the God of the living...would You please place Stipe approval at our disposal? I ask it.

Bring value to us in the off-hours...that time when our attention is clear, place clarity and direction for the next steps when working resumes. (Thank You that YOU don't slumber or sleep.)

Father, quiet (Speak the words, "Peace, be still!") to quiet all that is dear to us during our project focus; to protect the clarity of what needs to be done next. Are there insinuations from the enemy that threatens the clarity and solidarity between our thoughts and the team members. ...SQUASH IT!, Dear Shepherd and send Your sheepdogs to maintan a clean workbench in each mental and physical space. Make every part of this project be Yours 4SaTaT. Build Your protective wall around us.

You did that for the Israelites in the desert. A cloud during the day and a column of fire at night! Protection at all times. They crossed the desert to go to the land You had chosen. Your chosen people going to Your chosen land. The legacy continues forever! Isn't this project the same? Are we not putting process in place for those who will follow? This is truly Your SDLC. Bless us. Prepare them, even now.

You compell us that time is short. Every day the urgency increases to get this work done. You propel our minds, hearts, spirits with Esther's words: 4SaTaT! Did You give her those words because we would need them?

Keep us clean from debris...space clutter...mental space clutter, from the world...energize our own hearts as Your own.

USERS!
They will need unfettered imaginations. Help them now, to practice the skills they will need when we are gone.

O God who heals...heal us for the work at hand. Bandage our emotional wounds with Your salve, Balm of Gilead. Open the processes that allow for clean passage of all that needs to be done.

May we delight You with our living each day: time with You. May every minute be a conduit to knowing You deeper and hearing Your voice, such that "project work" draws us with strong desire because this project is from, for, with YOU. Each of us have:

• A workbench
• A kitchen table

May our faith, by Your Spirit, focus on Your kingdom and not our personal needs, knowing You are taking care of them. Blow away the scenes in our mental theaters that we create in our minds that shift our attention. Free us to receive and implement Your vision for those who will follow...those whom You love.

I ask it in the Name You provided: Yeshua Ha'Mashiach.

All glory be to Your Name.

Maranatha.

God of Transformation and Renewal

Gracious Father, God who transforms and offers freedom through Jesus Christ,

You cleanse us from all that prevents us from being holy. You have said, "Be ye oly, for I am holy." And it is clear that we cannot begin this process. We need You. We need Your Spirit.

In You is the beauty brought by Christ's obedience. In You is the testimony of Your grace, bringing newness of life, that is, transformation. Thank You.

Holy Spirit, we are so inept without You. We need You. Thank You for your gentleness and care. Thank You for not giving up on us. I invite You to bring greater pressure on us, that we may draw closer to God.

Pierce our hearts to desire transformation and renewal. The world wants us to be satisfied with our status quo. We like our comfort zones, even when it chains us to uncertainty, dissatisfaction, and paths without meaning or destination. We need Your help. I invite You here.

You know me and my neighbors. Help me walk in this newness of life. Open their eyes that they may see it and desire Your renewal. Draw them close to You that they may know the joy of relationship with You.

You heal and restore. Please enter in. I ask it, for the soon kingdom of Jesus Christ.

in Jesus' Name,

Maranatha.

Free from Bitterness and Anger

You are merciful, O God of the Ages. You created all that exists, all that we are, all that we feel. You created anger. You created evil. You get angry.

Yet, You have directed us in Ephesians 4:31-32:

Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you.

Thank You for this direction. Yet we cannot do it on our own. You enable us to accomplish this through the Power given us by the Holy Spirit, and through Hesus' work on the cross.

Most of my neighbors do not know of this power. Do they desire to be free from bitterness, wrath, and anger? What about malice? Or are they content with it? Father, we get comfortable with the daily regimines that fill our lives. We blindly go from one thing to another. Forgive us for the ruts that we embrace that do not serve You.

Forive us for embracing the comfort that is easy rather than seeking the best that You have for us.

You offer kindness, tenderheartedness and forgiveness. You have made it readily available to us. Forvie us hwen we choose the ways of the world over the hard-won work that brings life.

You demonstrate these assets every day in our lives. You have given us Your Word where we can read about them. Truly we have no excuse.

Work in our lives that we may known know Your love and build relationship with You,

in Jesus' Name,

Maranatha.

Rescued from the Darkness

In Your incredible mercy, You have rescued us from the darkness filled with misunderstanding and separation from You.
Thank You.

Most of my neighbors do not know this available love that You have for them. It seems that those that do keep it as a secret. Isn't it Your love, grace, and mercy that softens hearts? I ask that You come into the hearts of this neighborhood.

Would You fill them with good questions? Fill them with curiosity. Fill them with desire to know more their purpose that You have placed in them from before the world was created. In Your mercy, grant them a desire to know more about their existence.

Can I be an instrument of Your love, Your kindness? Can I guide them toward Your truth that sets us free. Oh how I desire they can know the freedom found in Christ. How I desire that they find joy and freedom in Your love. Oh that they could rest in the assurance that they are fully loved, fully known, and Your manifold provision.

Hear my prayers:

Transformed by Beholding

"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." 2 Co 3:18

Oh God, You are my God. You are so magnificent. Your manifold care meets all the needs of those who are in Christ Jesus. Thank You.

Thank You for purpose for each day: to worship You in spirit and in truth. You are Truth. Help us to spend each moment honoring You as we go forth.

My neighbors are sorely on my heart. many seem to know You and have a deep relationship with You. Do the busy demands of the world close in until there is no room left to have time with You?

Holy Spirit, I ask You to invigorate us with that initial excitement we had when we first realized that our sins were removed; that we were clean.

What about those who do't know You? I bring them before Your throne now. Would You open their eyes to see the Christ in those who know You. Would You inspire those who know Jesus to portray Him that others would desire You?

Help us to proclaim the love that You washed us in, that others may seek You. Can we reflect Jesus to the point that others desire Him. Hear my prayer.

Truly, we are impotent to proclaim Christ. But Holy Spirit, I call upon You, to help us, that these neighbors may find You.

Transform us each day. Draw us to behold Jesus in all that we do. And from this testimony, may others be transformed as they too behold Jesus. Hear my prayer.

All glory be to Christ on High.

Maranatha.
