Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/22/2025

 Subject: “Decree and Declare”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Oh Lord, As children of God we make many declarations from your Word to both comfort and admonish others. You have placed your Words upon our hearts by the Spirit making it most difficult to remain quiet, so we will declare it freely to all who has ears to hear. Help us to always be careful to make our proclamations within their original context so they don’t lose their original meaning. To fail to do so has created many false teachings in our day. As new creations in Christ we are led by your Spirit to set our lives on a specific course believing that it’s within your providence, so we happily decree and declare it knowing that you will establish it according to your divine will. Thank you Father for shining your bright and holy light upon our ways to confirm that our decree has been truly established by you. Lead your children to never decree and declare a thing that has only come from their prideful desires and not from your express will for their lives. We will only declare and decree what you have placed upon our hearts to accomplish in our individual lives. We pray this is the Holy Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways” (Job 22:28).

PRAYERS FOR THE LAST WEEK,  IN CASE YOU MISSED ONE

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/21/2025

 Subject: “Spiritual Blessings Beyond Measure”

Good morning Heavenly Father. We thank you, God, that you’re not some tyrannical ruler ready to cast us into the pit of hell for the least misstep. For indeed we are blessed and so very happy that you have blessed us with every spiritual blessing by bringing all of us, your beloved children, into a closer relationship with you. We thank you, Father, with our arms and hearts open wide for all that you have done for us through your beloved Son Jesus Christ. We count our blessings every day, for the days are gloriously brighter, the music is so much sweater, and the indwelling Spirit fills our every emotional and psychological need with your knowledge and compassionate love. Day by day we feel you drawing us ever closer to you teaching us, among other things, Kingdom principles that not only delight us but absolutely amazes us, that by giving our self to others in service it always brings a greater blessing to us. Thank you, Father God, for teaching us this most beautiful principle that will continue with us forever into heavenly bliss. Let us never forget who we are in Christ! We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3).

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/19/2025

 Subject: “The Love of Christ Constrains Us”

Good morning Heavenly Father. “The love of Christ constrains us” opens up a whole new horizon and helps us to understand why we are so driven to complete all of our work for you. Your love powerfully moves us from one assignment to another in our unending service to you by serving others even when we don’t feel that we are physically able. Following you, Oh Lord, in your death upon the Cross, we have now been made alive; not to live for ourselves but to live for you. Yes, we believe that your deep abiding love constrains us from following the ways of a selfish world, to give ourselves beyond measure by not counting the cost, and to give ourselves to others as you gave your life for us. Therein, we have found our true joy and peace that sustains us even during our most difficult struggles in life. Although we give all that we have, we know that we are constrained from going into debt to give what we don’t have. We pray, Oh Lord, that you help all your beloved children to always listen to you, through the indwelling Spirit, to explicitly follow you in our service to others. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again” (II Corinthians 5:14-15).

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/18/2025

 Subject: “He Who Has an Ear, Let Him Hear”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Someone, or perhaps many of your children are really not listening to the Spirit. Otherwise, we would not have so many different opinions, so many different prophecies, and so many different interpretations of your infallible Word, the Holy Bible. We are convinced in our spirit that there is only one voice from only one Spirit who speaks for only one God. We cannot all be right with so many different opinions. So, we pray that you guard our mouths, especially in these last days, to not speak anything claiming that it’s from you unless we know for certain. Perhaps, there has never been a time more urgent, for your chosen people to speak with one voice articulating exactly what we must do in these Last Days to stand against the fallen world run by Satan and the powers of darkness. We want to hear your marching orders directly from you, our only Commander in Chief, the Lord of Glory. We know, Oh Lord, that we must draw a line and not allow the evil world to pass over it, affecting the holiness of your beloved children. We must come out from among them and remain pure. We pray this in the Most Holy Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“He that hath ears to hear, let him hear” (Matthew 11:15).

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/17/2025

 Subject: “We Call You Lord, Lord”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Oh Lord, the world may be falling apart around us with evil people saying things beyond the pale, yet we desire to always walk in holiness before you. You have taught us that it’s only possible if we truly listen to what you say. We pray, Oh Lord, that we have ears to hear what you say to us through your magnificent Word, the Bible always made alive by the indwelling Spirit. Without the indwelling Spirit, we cannot hear what you say, so we pray that we always humble ourselves by ceasing all our wandering thoughts, vain imaginations, and giving our undivided attention to what you want to say. If we only listen to your still small, yet powerful voice, through the indwelling Spirit, then we can truly call you Lord, Lord. It’s your voice that’s always calling us away from every form of evil either in images, words, or so-called music. Thank you, Lord, that Your voice always comes in loud and clear when someone attempts to set an evil image before our eyes or to express an evil thought through corrupt communication. Help us to be true ambassadors for Christ. We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?” (Luke 6:46)

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/16/2025

 Subject: “Watch What You Say”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Oh Lord, your Spirit that dwells in every believer must be so grieved with all the corrupt communication in the world today. Individually, we can feel the indwelling Spirit crying forth with enormous tears of grief that deeply saddens our hearts. We have noticed that this corrupt communication among most of humanity has progressed well beyond vulgarity and filthiness. We have observed that this corrupt communication is filled with damaging lies and half-truths intended to divide and destroy their fellow man. This corrupt communication has filled the airwaves, new media, and social media intoxicating the public. Lies laced with half-truths are leading the entire world into greater divisions and open hostility. This has caused total chaos in the streets of many of our major cities in the world causing riots, deaths, and destruction. We pray that all your children will choose to stop being a conduit for spreading this corrupt communication that is dividing and destroying humanity that’s far worse than any supposed thermo-nuclear war. Lead us, Oh Lord, to shut our ears to the lies and half-truths of our age. We humbly pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers” (Ephesians 4:29).

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/15/2025

 Subject: “We Will Rejoice and Be Glad in It”

Good morning Heavenly Father. Oh, how precious are the days of deliverance for all of your children. How precious are the days of deliverance, when you have delivered them from the grips of death, caused by a major car accident, a deathly disease, or some other calamity. How precious are the days of deliverance when you have delivered them from the agony of defeat or the rejection of forced unemployment. How precious are the days of deliverance when you have delivered them from the grips of their dependence on psychological drugs, alcohol, or the distasteful addiction to cigarettes. How precious are the days of deliverance from the power of sin, the emotional pain of guilt and the agonizing pit of un-forgiveness. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for creating a brand-new day, where we are no longer pulled down by our past. Help your beloved children to truly accept your loving forgiveness, to let go of their past, believe in their new life in Christ, never look back, and walk joyously into the new day with their heads lifted high. Thank you, Lord, for creating a brand-new day where we will rejoice and be glad in it! We pray this in the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalms 118:24).

Prayers by Rev. Daniel W. Blair 1/14/2025

 Subject: “Casting Evil in Our Own Minds”

Good morning Heavenly Father. We pray, Oh Lord, that especially your beloved children will not dismiss the power of evil that’s growing stronger every day. We believe this is becoming more self-evident among those who are spiritually mature, in those who spend more time in silence and solitude, and in those who spend many hours every day in prayer and meditation. It’s as though a huge wave of evil is enveloping the world and especially this country. We pray that you will give us strength and wisdom on how to guard our every thought. Let us always keep the Cross before us by dying daily to self, casting out every vain imagination, impure, and self-righteous thought immediately. Help your children to see and understand that it’s not all about casting out evil in physical places and in other people, but it’s more about casting out what’s evil in our own minds. We pray that they will also see how essential it is for us not to flirt with evil in our movies, music, and books. Help us to be very discerning on what we watch, listen to, or read, especially on social media. We pray this in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

“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” (Ephesians 6:12).
