PRAYER

Almighty and Eternal God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, You are the one true God. You revealed Yourself to us as a Trinity of Persons, existing in perfect unity and love.

Father God, You created all things. You are the Sovereign Lord over heaven and earth. We praise You for Your infinite power, wisdom, and majesty. You alone deserve our worship and devotion.

Jesus, our Lord and Savior, You became human and lived among us, showing us the Father's loving heart. Through Your sacrifice on the cross, You took our sins upon Yourself and made things right for us. By Your resurrection, You defeated death and secured eternal life for us. To You, O Christ, be the highest praise, honor and glory forever.

Holy Spirit, You are our Comforter and Counselor. You live within us, empowering us, making us Holy, and shaping us to be more like Christ. We pray for Your enlightenment, Your guidance, and Your transforming power in our lives.

O blessed Trinity, keep us standing firm in this faith, so we may rightly worship You and walk in obedience to Your will. Fill our hearts with awe at the greatness of your love and the brilliance of Your glory.

We pray this in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.

Today is a good time to remember that God is in control, and he’s promised He will never leave or abandon us.

Let our faith be strong today and every day. 🙏

6 Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the Lord your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you.

Deuteronomy 31:6 NKJV

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, as summer begins around us, we gather on this Sunday thankful for You, while concerned with the state of our earthly world.

Our earthly world remains broken by sin. Wars rage, corruption seems like it is almost everywhere, and evil seems to prosper. So we cry out to You, the Righteous Judge, to intervene.

We pray for an end to all conflicts and bloodshed across the globe. Silence the rattle of weapons, and let Your peace take its place. Let us bring an end to corruption in the halls of power and bring the unrighteous to account. Expose evil to the light.

We pray that You uplift the righteous - those who live with integrity, speak truth, and govern with justice. Use us, Your people, to be agents of renewal, reconciliation and redemption in this fallen world. May our lives point others to the way of righteousness found in Your Son.

All this we pray in the precious name of our Savior and King, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Good afternoon friends!

As you probably know, this channel was started a month ago this weekend, by Jeffrey Peterson, a internet entrepreneur, to share in fellowship with fellow Christians.

Among the things Jeff wants to discuss with the audience on this channel are a series of events he experienced about twenty-five years ago, which opened his eyes and strengthened his faith in what he believes may have been a true miracle that he experienced at that time, here on earth.

Tomorrow, we will open the chat on this channel, so that it will be open for your commentary, questions and feedback, as we begin to discuss this amazing real life story, in the month of June.

There are no expectations from anyone here, other than to have an open and honest discussion about what happened all those years ago.

When it has been fully explained, we will appreciate anyone’s feedback, who is willing to consider the facts, and offer your thoughts about the meaning of this amazing story.

The admins on this channel are Paulina, Josh and Df Dakota.

On today’s date, 06/09, join with me as I pray how we were taught by Jesus in Matthew 6:9.

PRAYER

Our Father in heaven,

10 Hallowed be Your name.

Your kingdom come.

Your will be done

On earth as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts,

As we forgive our debtors.

13. And do not lead us into temptation,

But deliver us from the evil one.

For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

Matthew 6:9-13 (NKJV)

PRAYER

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, we pray to lift up those present and future leaders of nations who truly seek to do good. We ask that You grant wisdom, courage, and integrity to those who would govern with righteousness and uphold justice. May they be strenghtened and emboldened to act with moral clarity, serving their people faithfully and protecting those who need it most.

Lord, we also pray that You would expose and strike down the corruption that plagues this world. Shine Your light into the shadows where the wicked operate in secrecy. Break the chains of greed, deceit, and abuse of power that ensnare the unrighteous. Let truth and virtue prevail over wickedness and deception. Strengthen and guide us to do Your will.

We trust in Your sovereign power and perfect justice, O Lord. Guide the path of leaders who walk uprightly, and let the corruptible fall by the power of Your mighty hand. All this we pray in the Holy name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

Heavenly Father, we're in awe of the priceless gift of Your Word, which lights our path through life and transforms our very being.

Lord, we recognize that we sometimes fall short of Your perfect will, both personally and nationally. We ask for Your forgiveness and long for spiritual revival.

Today we lift up the Supreme Court to You, urgently praying for Your wisdom to guide their choices and rulings in these difficult times. May Your Spirit lead them to uphold truth and justice in line with Your divine plans.

We pray that You inspire our actions in ways that honor You and attract others to Christ. Strengthen our faith, hope, and love as we serve You faithfully.

We pray this thankfully, in the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

PRAYER

Almighty God in Heaven, we thank You for Your constant love, grace, and protection. We thank You for protecting our President according to Your perfect wisdom.

Lord, we recognize that everything good we have is from You. You are the giver of every good gift. Thank You for the many blessings You have poured out on us, our freedom, our families, the things we need in our daily lives. We are deeply grateful for Your favor and faithfulness toward us.

As we go about our lives this week, we ask that You guide us according to Your will. May our words, and actions and thoughts bring glory to Your Holy name. Fill us with Your Holy Spirit and show us how to be bold ambassadors for Christ in a world that is lost and dying without the light of Your gospel.

We pray in the precious name of Jesus, Amen.

27 But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.” (Mark 10:27 NKJV)

PRAYER

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, Your Word forewarned us of these troubled times when people would become consumed by self-love, lacking the moral backbone our nation once knew.

Lord, we have witnessed this decay all around us – in our communities, our schools, in politics, and recently in video broadcasts from the country of France.

We reject all that is bad.

We stand firm in righteousness, grateful beyond words to be called Your children, understanding the important meaning it carries. We seek You, knowing that all goodness flows from Your incredible grace.

Father, we need Your Holy Spirit to strengthen us and guide us through the complexities of modern life according to Your will. Let Your truth be our compass, illuminating the narrow path in these complex times.

Soften our hearts, Lord, while giving us the fortitude to stand strong. We pray for the energy and strength we need in the week ahead. Keep our eyes fixed on Your Kingdom, even as the world seeks to distract us.

By Your amazing grace, transform us into living testimonies of Your strength and love. In this world obsessed with self, make us devoted to You.

May our lives radiate Your holiness so brilliantly that those around us, our neighbors, colleagues, friends, and family, cannot help but witness Your transformative power at work within us.

We pray that the examples of Your work in us will be a testament to our loved ones, and in this way, help draw them to the life-changing salvation You have revealed to the world.

We pray all of this in the mighty name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Amen.

SCRIPTURE

The Whole Armor of God

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the [a]wiles of the devil.

12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of [b]the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

Ephesians 6:10-13 (NKJV)

Some say ‘life doesn't come with an instruction manual.’ But for believers, it does. It's called the Holy Bible, and it contains God's inspired Word to guide us through life's journey.

PRAYER

Heavenly Father, our path is often uncertain. We feel lost in this fallen world, yet we know You are the light that guides us home.

We have tried to find our own way, relying on our limited understanding. Our self-reliance has at times led to dead ends and despair. Now, humbled, we come to You for direction.

Lord, we lay down our earthly ways and entrust our futures to You. We pray for the wisdom and strength to know the right things to do and so that we will be able to accomplish them, in the week ahead.

Your power and love have sustained us, even when we've strayed or made mistakes. Your promise is our hope, knowing You won't forsake us.

Guide us, O Lord, through the power of Your Holy Spirit, now because we need You more than ever, and always, until we find our way to Your eternal kingdom, where we will dwell with You forever.

In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.

DEVOTIONAL WRITING
by Jeffrey Peterson

Trust in the infinite wisdom of the Holy Spirit.

You might say, "No one understands me." Yet be assured that the Holy Spirit comprehends you fully, down to every intricate thought and feeling within you.

Whenever you need guidance to align with God's teachings, pray to Him. The Holy Spirit will respond, strengthening and directing you.

Indeed, it is miraculous, and we can be certain of this because Jesus Himself promised us:

'And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.'
John 14:16-17 (NKJV)

Never doubt if the Holy Spirit truly understands you. The Holy Spirit possesses unlimited wisdom and divine intelligence.

There is nothing about you that the Holy Spirit fails to understand. If we have sinned or made mistakes, and the circumstances are complex, we need not fear that the Holy Spirit will miss the truth within our hearts.

No matter how intricate our situation, the Lord knows us completely. What seems complicated to us is but a fleeting moment in light of the Spirit's infinite wisdom and perfect comprehension of our true selves.

Moreover, the Holy Spirit is infinitely patient with us. Patience is listed as one of the fruits of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23, reflecting God's own character. This divine patience comforts believers who may feel they are struggling in their faith and serves as a powerful testimony to non-believers, revealing God's loving nature.

This divine patience mirrors the sacrificial love of Jesus Christ, who endured the cross for our salvation. Just as Christ's patience led to our redemption, the Holy Spirit's patience guides us through sanctification. Together, they reveal God's unwavering commitment to our salvation and spiritual growth.

To be clear: this assurance of the Holy Spirit's perfect understanding does not diminish our need to fear the Lord. As Scripture teaches, 'The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom' (Proverbs 9:10). Rather, it means we need not fear being misunderstood by God.

And God’s perfect understanding of us is for us to consider with eternal importance. So let us continually turn to God in repentance, for as 1 John 1:9 assures us, "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

Remember that we are engaged in spiritual warfare. Paul reminds us in Ephesians 6:12, 'For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.' In this battle, the Holy Spirit is our greatest ally.

These truths should inspire us to prioritize our relationship with God above all else. Worldly opinions are fleeting, but God's understanding is perfect and eternal. As 1 Samuel 16:7 reminds us, 'The Lord does not look at the things people look at. People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.'

So let us nurture a deep, honest relationship with our Creator, bringing our whole selves before Him.

And as we walk this path, let us never forget the foundation of our faith: the saving grace of Jesus Christ. As Paul reminds us in Ephesians 2:8-9, 'For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast.'

This salvation enables us to approach the Throne of grace with confidence, knowing that in Christ, we are fully known and fully loved.

Indeed, we are blessed to be God's children, saved through Jesus, and to have received the Holy Spirit. Let us live each day in gratitude, sharing the good news of salvation while allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us.

All praise and glory to God!

PRAYER

Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, as Your Word teaches in Philippians 4:6, we bring everything to You in prayer with grateful hearts. We pray that You hear our humble requests on this blessed day:

We pray for our nation, Lord. Guide our leaders and those preparing for leadership to make decisions that honor You, protect our freedoms, and so that they serve with integrity to restore our nation to greatness. As we share Your Word, shield us from censorship.

Protect our families, Lord. Guard our children from worldly influences and all forms of evil, and strengthen our homes to exemplify Your love.

We pray for those struggling with illness, hardship, or spiritual battles. We pray that You provide for their needs according to Your riches in glory.

Finally, Father, we pray that You pour out Your Spirit for our revival. Grant us strength for the week ahead, that we may stand firm in faith and be living testimonies of Your grace.

In Jesus' mighty name we pray. Amen.
