Prayer from Sunday

I have been asked to share what the prayer was that I prayed over our church on Sunday.  Here is the basic outline, depending on which service you went to the prayer was tailored to what God was saying to me at the time I prayed.  Here it is:


Prayer

Heavenly father - I pray over our church and our people.  I ask God that you break the Generational sins and curses in our lives, Through our mothers and our fathers and through all of our future generations. God we break inappropriate Soul connections with those who are not our husband or our wife as well as those that do not glorify you.  I break curses that have been said over us and by us. (That we are ugly, worthless, destroy, wanting to die etc...) I proclaim that we are children of God who are loved, worthy, accepted and want to live, etc...  I ask God that your blood that was shed on the cross would cover us and clean us and that you would stand between us and our enemies.

I ask God that your Spirit would empower us and fill us with power.  I ask God that your spirit would comfort us and bring life into our church so that we might serve you!

Amen

Hope

Psalm 25:4-6 (New International Version)

 4 Show me your ways, O LORD, 
       teach me your paths;

 5 guide me in your truth and teach me, 
       for you are God my Savior, 
       and my hope is in you all day long.

 6 Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, 
       for they are from of old.

Faith, Hope and Love.  Jesus tells me that I need to focus on Hope in Him.  What that means I am not entirely sure.  To me it means focus on the good and believe in the positive.

Prayer - 

Good show me how to hope and give me direction.

Teach me your love.

Build me into what you want me to be.
