 Subject: “Wings of Eagles”

Good morning Heavenly Father. We thank you LORD for your great love and care for your servants who put their trust in you. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for teaching us through the indwelling Spirit, not to run ahead of you in on our own strength and power, but to wait upon you. This is a most difficult lesson for most of your beloved children who want to take the reins of their own power and wisdom to accomplish the task at hand. They want to rush ahead with their own words, their own decisions, and their own actions without waiting on you to provide. How glorious it is when we do wait to see the miracles from your hand performing beyond our greatest imagination. We see this in everything, in the words we write to the works of our hands, and from the Holy conversation with others to our blessed prayers offered to you, our LORD. To see the miracle of you working through us accomplishing your will on earth as it is in heaven brings tears of great joy to us your beloved children. Hallelujah! We pray this in the blessed Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint” (Isaiah 40:31).

PRAYERS FOR THE LAST WEEK,  IN CASE YOU MISSED ONE

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 4/25/2025

 Subject: “We Fear No Evil”

Good morning Heavenly Father. When tragedy strikes from the loss of a relative, health-related issues, and the possible loss of a soul mate, it can knock us down momentarily. As they say, we are human. However, we also know, that we are more than human, we are Christians and devout followers of Christ, so we get back up. We face to the rising Son, the hope of our salvation, and use our new-found direction to get back into the fight. We courageously get back into the fight for the souls of men and women who are being purposefully led astray by the lies of the devil, especially on social media. Oh Lord, give us great strength for this conflict that’s leading so many of your precious children astray believing one lie or conspiracy theory after another. We pray that you will give us your most powerful words of prophetic truth so that it will lead them out of this valley of darkness used by the evil one to blind your children. It is your amazing strength, LORD, that we take comfort in as we fearlessly take our stand against the enemy. We humbly pray this in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me” (Psalms 23:4).

 Subject: “Teach Us How to Pray”

Good afternoon Heavenly Father. Lord, we know that there are many different ways to pray but following your direction to enter our prayer closet completely alone, shutting the door to the outside world, seems to work best for us. Circling the troops, yelling, demanding, or taking authority does not work for us. On the other hand, to enter into the quiet solitude of our prayer closet it shakes the very foundations of heaven and earth as we witness your immediate response to our prayers. We have confidence that our prayers are being answered according to your will and not ours, wholly trusting you with the outcome. Thank you for teaching us through the indwelling Spirit that our Father in Heaven truly knows best, and we never want to be found praying against your will for your beloved children. We conclude our prayers today, by asking that all the tragic circumstances in the world have their desired effect upon fallen humanity and at the same time that it will draw your beloved children even closer to you in the Spirit. We also pray that it will separate the wheat from the chaff publicly. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly” (Matthew 6:6).

 Subject: “Envy and Pride”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Thank you, Lord, for showing us that past spiritual battles that were gloriously won after many years of painful struggles, should still be monitored very closely so they don’t raise up their ugly head once again. Envy a very close relative to pride has destroyed many of your want-a-be children. For indeed religious pride and envy can be much worse than what’s in the world. No, your beautiful Scripture never speaks in vain, for all their lessons are useful for our spiritual growth and learning how to stand firm. Although at times they hit deeply within our hearts, it’s needful to take the admonition and humbly repent, if necessary publicly. We pray that all of your beloved children will tread lightly on these two very powerful sins that can pop up out of nowhere, when we least expect them, causing us to fall into another well-placed trap of the devil. Help them not to compare their financial wealth and intellectual ability with others but only rejoice privately in what you have given to them, by keeping it to themselves without bragging, or openly giving you all the glory. Help them, Oh Lord, not to envy others. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Do ye think that the scripture saith in vain, The spirit that dwelleth in us lusteth to envy?”  (James 4:5)

 Subject: “Take Each Thought Captive”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Thank you, Lord, for giving us spiritual discernment to recognize your still small voice that fills our entire body with your light, giving us confidence of your holy and blessed presence. On the other hand, we have also witnessed the small inner voice of the evil one bringing forth his crazy and foolish thoughts in a flash, tempting us to proceed with those thoughts as if they were our own. We pray that we will continue to cast out those thoughts immediately by replacing them with thoughts about you, our Holy and Righteous God. We pray that all of your children will not underestimate the devil and his ability to put his evil and ugly thoughts into their minds to do his will. We pray that they will not be tempted to think on his malicious thoughts for not even a millisecond. Oh, how we look forward to Heaven where we will no longer be tempted by the devil, to be finally delivered from this spiritual battle. We pray that we will take each thought captive to the obedience of Christ. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ” (II Corinthians 10:5).

Subject: “He Has Risen!”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Thank you, Father God, for sending your only begotten Son to show us the path to everlasting life. As we reflect upon all that Jesus taught us on this Easter Morn we are drawn back again and again to those numerous acts of love where You never expected anything in return. Even today many years after the glorious resurrection of your Son from the grave, we are still witnessing those little acts of love and miracles in our lives that often brings tears to our eyes knowing that it is you working out everything so perfectly. We can say so happily that with you nothing happens by accident. Yes, you so gloriously hold us in the palm of your hands bringing forth one little miracle after another. We have witnessed again and again that your timing is impeccable opening one project and closing the next. What a wonder it is having you live with us every day of our lives because you have risen to dwell in our hearts through faith. Thank you, Father, for calling us according to your purpose. All glory to God! We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to hispurpose” (Romans 8:28).

Subject: “Search the Scriptures Daily”

Good morning Heavenly Father. On this day bind us all together in the same
Spirit. Thank you, Lord, for your magnificent and unchangeable Word in the Holy Scriptures. It’s plain, it’s simple and it’s written on a sixth-grade level so that all can read and understand. Moreover, you have given your beloved children the indwelling Spirit to open their eyes to its deeper meaning and more importantly how to apply its truth to their lives. We pray for all of your children today that they will be very careful and not add to your Word through some supposed vision or attempt to change it through some inner feelings. Let them not accept everything they receive as the gospel truth until they have searched the Scriptures to see if those things are so. We pray that you will raise up an army of your beloved children in these dark days to boldly speak out against anyone who would add to or take away from your anointed Word. Let them examine everything spoken in person or on social media, not to judge, but to simply hold them accountable for not speaking just the truth. We pray this in the blessed Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so” (Acts 17:11).

 Subject: “Making the Best Use of Our Time”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Thank you, Lord, for teaching us through the indwelling Spirit how to manage our time effectively or to have good time management. This is especially difficult for us when we have other people pulling us in one direction, then another. This is especially difficult when the days are so evil leading your beloved children to play one meaningless game after another or to be carried away by one form of entertainment after another. This is especially difficult when so many people are speaking and saying nothing useful but only trivial nonsense wasting the valuable time of your precious children. This is especially difficult when your children don’t have a clear direction from you on what they need to accomplish in their life because they are not properly listening to the indwelling Spirit. We pray that your children will slow down long enough to hear exactly what you are saying and precisely what they need to do to accomplish your will on earth. We pray that they will all experience the great joy that comes from having a truly productive day by exercising good time management. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:15-16, ESV).
