Prayers that I personally commune with The LORD. Graceful prayers are
done in certain places and with posture of heart looking at the excellency and
majesty of God and the feebleness of oneself.
Why do I write prayers?
Because I know my mind and heart the wickedness of mind to take the excellency
of God lightly. I am dud and I cannot go without finely thinking linearly. My
mind is haze and cannot put forth what I seek earnestly. I know that, left to
myself, I am an absolute dud. I am blank, nothing deep, nothing moving, nothing
intense, nothing beautiful, nothing precious, nothing sweet or wonderful — just
empty, blank. So I write and pray over it that I may behold The One.
Below are some prayers I do often by the grace of Christ and keep
editing when I learn from faithful men who prayed before me and as the LORD
keeps and grows me in Him.
Prayer against status quo, justice and glory of God
Dear Father,
I pray against the world in its fallenness and evilness. O Lord it rebels
against Your glory and holiness. Help me not to accept it as normal but zeal
for standing for Your glory. You alone can change the world and I cant accept
it in its evilness. O Lord redeem this evil world. Do not make me "lose
heart" at evil world but fight in prayer for Your glory and not be normal
with evilness.
I pray that Your name is hallowed, feared, revered in all of Your glory
& majesty and the one who rebels You will see the glory of Your might and
power in full essence yet Your abounding mercy and love may save them from
their own destruction and repent and be reconciled. The world rebels against
You, help me not to accept the world and "lose heart". O Lord my God
give me holy anger to not accept everything that doesn't glorify You but make
me prayerful always against the world and its evil working.
I pray that the sovereignly elect judges and officials of justice be
just and holy as You are for "righteousness and justice are the foundation
of Your throne"(Psalm 89:14) and may they deliver the oppressed and
innocent reflecting Your name. the evil be banished forever from this land and
Your will be done.
O Father, You are God who loves just and justice and You are in all
truth for all truth is derived of You, may we see Your glory of justice in full
majesty everywhere as we walk in it. O God You love justice; You will not
abandon Your faithful ones(Psalm 37:28)
I pray that Your glory of the
truth ascends all situations and circumstances and Your will of truth, beauty
and honor be all over the inhabitants and all unjust situations be changed by
Your power to be praise to Your name. (Ps 33:5)
O Lord my God you have defeated all evil schemes and sin and death and
revealed the full glory of justice and victory by Your resurrection, may the
majestic glory of Your resurrection be sovereignly witnessed and felt in all
the creation as we abide in Your truth & glory.
O Lord I surrender and give all the evil perverse situations in Your
hand that You will reveal Your glory and the beauty of truth over all perverse
evils and Your goodness be revealed through it all.
Fill us with Your zeal of Your name and Your Word and power of just and
truth so we may walk for the absolute glory & beauty of truth over all
things, make us bold for Your glory and name. Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be
Your name. Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as is in heaven. For
Christ's sake I pray, Amen.
Prayer for loving the unlovable or enemy or hostile to God like we were.
Dear Father, Thank you for Your overflowing love and tender mercies in
Christ that cleansed me and reconciled me to You. O God I have been Your
hostile enemy deserving only wrath but You my Lord consumed everything hostile to
reconcile me as a son to my Father. O Lord fill me and overwhelm me with Your
love and forgiveness so that I walk and extend same love and forgiveness to my
enemies. I don't deserve anything yet You have lavished everything upon me. O
how overwhelming is Your steadfast love and daily mercies. O God You have
revealed to me in my Lord that You are all for me and not against me and
everything is preparing me for an eternal weight of glory beyond all
comparison. O LORD change my affections and emotions to conform to Your love
and grace & mercy to others. O God You are God of justice and righteousness
and love to reveal Your glory in it. Vengeance is all Yours and Yours alone for
You are right and just and do good. O Lord reveal your justice for enemies by
Your overflowing grace in cross and they may repent of their hostility and
rebellion and see savor and cherish Your sovereign grace in Christ. In Jesus
name help me, Amen.
Prayer for unsaved
Dear Father, I pray Your name be hallowed, cherished, treasured and
obeyed in Christ. I pray Your glory be witnessed, Your love be savored. I pray
for all the lost who are without You, without life. O Lord they are all under
Your holy wrath, have mercy upon them as You had upon me in Christ. Save them
from Your justice for they cannot satisfy even in eternity. O Lord save them
for Your name sake as they were made to reflect Your glory and truth. Break
them from the chain of slavery to sins by the power of Your blood. I pray they
will know You deeply, honor You and be saved and know deeply of the overflowing
riches of Your love in Christ. May Your glory be reflected to them in full
measure and help them repent and turn to You. Have mercy upon them! Curse me
but save them Lord, they are far better than me. In Jesus name I bring this to
you, Amen.
Prayer before memorizing the Word of God
“Make me walk in the path of Your commandments, for I delight in it.
Incline my heart to Your testimonies, and not to gain. And revive me in Your
ways." Psalm 119:35-37
Dear Father, help me, guide me, instruct me to keep Your ways of life in
my heart mind and soul day & night. Help me O Spirit to memorize Your Own
Words for Your words I cannot live without. O God help me in Your Words so I do
not grieve Your Holy name. O God Your words are reflection of who You are, help
me O Spirit bind Your Words on me. O Lord renew me in You, open my eyes to You
and immerse me in Your Words as I memorize them to be in You, to have the
fullness of Your gracious love & joy in me and thus be produced in others,
to walk upright in Christ for Your glory & praise. Dear Father be merciful
and gracious that I may behold You through excellencies of Your Words always.
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen!
