BLOGGERS PRAYER PROJECT

Since I'm not available online as much as in the past but really believe in "praying for one another", I'd like us at the Lighthouse of Prayer to commit to praying for 31 bloggers (or more) if the Spirit leads you. You certainly can do your own on your own blog, too!


I've decided to do this a bit different than the Project and I will start the list out with people who already come here and pray, then add as led. I'm going to put a LINKY... and add their names and link to their blog... and if you add anyone, link to their blog not yours. 

Pray for each sister in Christ individually, in other words, don't lump them all together. Each day choose a new blogger on the list and leave a prayer for them. Add any blogger as you are led by the Spirit...

Barbie at My Freshly Brewed Life has a wonderful example for Day 1. Please click on the button or visit Dawn Modern Day Disciple at Beneath the Surface to find out more and follow their specifics for this Blogger Project.

I almost like this better than Prayer Requests. We all need prayer support whether we are facing a trial, battle or difficult circumstance, or celebrating a victory for praise, and just our daily walk could use a blessing through prayer which never hurts. 

Only PRAYERS (no comments please as usual) in the "Prayers Lifted to the Throne of God"! Let's pass this on (go grab the button code from Dawn) so hopefully more PRAY and join us to cover Blogland!

Not sure what the LINKY will say but put the Blogger's name as (Title or whatever) and Link to their blog (not yours). You can add your own blog if you pass through here and you're not on the list yet (we won't know you added yourself)... hopefully we'll get to know you as we pray for you.

PRAYER REQUESTS are different and FOLLOW in the next post still. However, I really want us to just lift up other bloggers and let them know you're praying for them, too, even if there is nothing in particular...

Just pick any BLOGGER you know well and add your prayer. You're welcome to add any blogger as you're led with your prayer for that blogger. You certainly can pray for a blogger without leaving a prayer but it'd be nice to write out a prayer for each one to see. We are not doing Day 1, Day 2...etc. but I do hope each day, you pray for a new blogger and we add more... don't worry about the photos of the blogger, it's the blogger that counts... :0) and praying for each blogger...

O Most Heavenly Father, I thank You for my precious sisters in Christ that You have brought into my life through blogging and although I asked that we not lump them altogether but rather pray individually, I know You and most of them know my time on the computer is very limited yet I intend to leave a prayer for each one because they are unique and such a blessing to me. You know each one by name and exactly what they need right at this moment so I lift each one to You for Your Holy Spirit to move by His power and His might blessing and filling them overflowingly meeting their specific needs right now in the Name of Jesus!

I came here today to begin the month of June lifting up each blogger linked above and give You praise and thanks for each one and the prayers already spoken and written on their behalf. I pray for more bloggers to come and pray. I ask that You would open the gates of heaven bringing an outpouring of favor and protection to the intercessors and prayer warriors that already have left prayers!

Peggy said...

LORD God Almighty... It is indeed a privilege and an honor to lift my precious sister Denise to You each day!

I am so thankful for this sweet, beautiful sister of the heart that You
have given me through blogging although we have never met, there is a common heart thread between us that links us closer than real blood sisters. I thank You for calling and prompting my spirit throughout the day to not only think of her often and in kind but to lift a prayer to You on her behalf. I come to You often for her many health needs and trust You completely to watch over her. I am forever grateful that You have continued Denise's life and spared her from leaving us far too early. Denise shines Your glory throughout blogland.
I ask that You would surround Denise with as many true believers as possible to raise her up and encourage us as she has so many of us. Please wrap Your loving arms around Denise
so she never is afraid, nor feels abandoned or lonely or forgotten. Lift her spirit on wings of eagles. Remind her frequently how valuable and beautiful she is as You pour Your love on her. May Denise always sense Your awesome presence. May her song and Shortybear dance endear Your heart to hold her and give her strength whenever she feels weak or discouraged. Lighten her burdens and her pain. I ask that whatever Denise
needs at this very moment, You would meet her and be with her. Thank You for the beautiful spirit of intercession and love Denise has and shares with everyone. Thank You for her heart for the lost and unsaved.
Thank You for her sweet, simple words that touch us so deeply. Go before Denise every day and every night.

I also pray that You would surround her and Lovebug and their joined families with Your peace and a united love that draws each one closer to You. Continue to work and strengthen
their many needs from financial to healing. Bless her husband and give him a heart that pursues You as much as Denise. Protect and guide them both to a place where they can worship You and rely on You when things may look impossible, remind them of how much You have given them and brought them through together and You desire to complete for good all that You have begun. Your plan is for good, not for harm. Denise trusts and loves You clearly! Bring Lovebug and Denise rest and security in their trust of You and Your complete control. Hold them both closely in the palm of Your hand.

Denise is more than a conqueror! I am believing with her for miracles... please start at the top of her head and flow through her with an abundance of grace, healing and mercy filling and restoring every cell, fiber and damage caused by her stroke or diabetes. Take control over her and her levels so that Denise may live a long and prosperous life to exalt and glorify You! Denise and I love You so much believing You, Your Word, Your Promises and in You and Your saving, healing power! We stand united in the authority of Jesus Christ for every prayer need spoken and unspoken for Denise, her families, her friends, and
all that she touches with her life and blog, giving You all the glory, honor, praise and thanks rightly due to You in the beloved Name of Jesus!

I wait for a complete work in Denise and that You touch her so deeply that she will know without a doubt that the Holy Spirit within her is revived and living ... WOO HOO! and glory, hallelujah ... Go into each part of Denise, building and strengthening her
physically, spiritually, emotionally, intellectually, psychologically for Your glory to be proclaimed in the precious name and authority of Jesus Christ who breathes a fresh breath and purpose into her to press on and continue running this race as You will
now and forever, Denise is whole in You! You are her Good Shepherd and You hold this sweet lamb in Your all encompassing, unfailing, loving arms! We thank You ever so much and love YOU
MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Peggy said...

Ohh yes Father, I come in agreement with Denise for our precious sister and dear friend Alice, who along with Denise, prays for so many.

O Lord, You have done so much for Alice and her dh, and family but we stand at the door with her asking for Your clear guidance and
direction for her surgery, her back, her relief of pain and numbness, every part of her, we give to You as her Great Physician, that already brought her through this once. We trust You to do a complete work of healing or whatever Your plan that You go and be with Alice.

We command any fear and unrest to leave Alice as she leans on You! We give You thanks and ask for Your continual hand upon her and her dear dh. Keep them well. Strengthen their health and their hearts!

I thank You for Alice joining us and leading us here so often with so many prayers and her ministry here. Bless her and pour more into her as she pours out on behalf of so many of us.

Thank You Father for her legacy and that You have passed on to her daughter's children the gifts of Your Spirit. Continue to stir and move mightily in this family. Thank You for the beautiful gift of music You gave her dh and the care he provides for Alice with love and devotion.

I too love Alice as Denise prayed and ask that You continue to let her be and know how much of a blessing and encouragement she is.
Encourage her and sweeten her life with many more JOYS and STRENGTH in YOU! Hide her from the enemy her seems to give her so many problems here at the Lighthouse but we thank You for hearing her prayers even when that ole enemy messes with her and publishing her prayers... protect Alice! Wrap[ Alice and surround her and her family with Your continuous love and mercies each day! Bring her favor and wisdom as she seeks more of You daily! Fill her overflowingly as she pours out to and for others, fill her back up.
She ministers truly "from her heart" both on her blog and here.
Thank You for the privilege to call Alice my sister in Christ and BFF! Love on her generously in Jesus Name... we proclaim Your blessed name has healing and miracles for Alice and hers! In the precious name of our beloved Lord and Savior, we pray...

Father, I thank You so much for our dear musically gifted sister Cathy!
I praise You for Cathy! I ask that You would meet Cathy and each need in her heart as well as continue to stir up the gift within her so we can hear some "new songs". Bless our dear Cathy with so many blessings that her heart can't even contain as she blesses others. Her own songs and her song choices on her blogs speak forth Your Word! Your Word is alive in Cathy and I ask in Jesus' Name that You would pour into her with
a new sweet Presence and melody!
I cannot express my thanks enough for the many times, Cathy reaches out to me with encouragement, care, concern, kindness and words
to keep me in touch with bloggers and what's happening in USA. Thank You for the blessing Cathy is to me!

Father, I ask that whatever needs are on my sister’s heart this day that you meet her and her loved ones.

Thank You for bringing Cathy to support others in prayer here. I am so grateful for her friendship and that You allowed our paths to cross in blogland. I needed so much to have a sister with a love of worship and music like her. She is a very special blessing to me and so many others. Continue to use Cathy. Speak to her through Your Word and through the songs she has yet to do as You sing so sweetly and tenderly over her. Remind Cathy of Your great love and provision for her every need.
Thank You for Cathy and loving on her today...

PRAYER for Our Nation

This was shared in an email from the Presidential Prayer Team:

Declaration of Independence Signer

Samuel Chase
George Washington (1732-1799), 1st President of the United States

"Almighty God: We make our earnest prayer that Thou wilt keep the United States in Thy Holy protection; and Thou wilt incline the hearts of the Citizens to cultivate a spirit of subordination and obedience to Government; and to entertain a brotherly affection and love for one another and for their fellow Citizens of the United States at large, and particularly for their brethren who have served in the Field. And finally that Thou wilt most graciously be pleased to dispose us all to do justice, to love mercy, and to demean ourselves with that Charity, humility, and pacific temper of mind which were the Characteristics of the Divine Author of our blessed Religion, and without a humble imitation of whose example in these things we can never hope to be a happy nation. Grant our supplication we beseech Thee, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen." --

This prayer of George Washington appears in St. Paul's Chapel in New York City.

"Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD." - Psalm 33:12
On our National Day of Prayer, then, we join together…to petition God to show us His mercy and His love, to heal our weariness and uphold our hope, that we might live ever mindful of His justice and thankful for His blessing.
-President Ronald Reagan (who signed a bill in 1988 making the first Thursday of May a National Day of Prayer)
