Asking the Lord for Mercy

 The Lord is for us. He is contending for us, and He is developing a stronghold of protection around us. 

A stronghold of protection

The Lord is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 27:1 NIV

This is a powerful Bible verse to help us stay encouraged. 

It is time to press into the Lord for all we need. 

Take time to wait on the Lord, pray, rest, and battle in prayer as the Lord leads. 

[Tweet “It is time to press into the Lord for all we need. “] 

Asking the Lord for mercy

Hear my voice when I call, Lord; be merciful to me and answer me. Psalm 27:7 NIV

This is truly a time of change for the good.

Remember to use Bible verses and pray in agreement with the Lord and others.

Ask the Lord for mercy. In James 2:13, the Bible tells us that “Mercy triumphs over judgment.” Ask the Lord for what you need.

Wait on the Lord 

Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord. Psalm 27:14 NIV

[Tweet “Wait on the Lord and be strong and courageous in your prayers and life.“] 

I love this verse. Wait on the Lord and be strong and courageous in your prayers and life.

The Lord knows and understands the details of what we are going through. He has not forgotten us. If you need encouragement, just ask the Lord.

Repentance prayer to break through:

I’m going to walk you through a process that I use.

I find Bible verses, pray in the promises, agree with others, and do deep repentance of anything I might have “in common” that would stop the Lord from moving and blessing us.

It is important to add worship, fun and joy to this!

Think about it, pray about it and let’s agree together for your needs.

What do you specifically need? 

Here’s how you can remove any strongholds, jam-ups, gridlocks and delays:
Repent, renounce, and break anything we have “in common,” including generational– soul ties, curses, things that we may have done knowingly or unknowingly. 
We also come into agreement in prayer to break out of things that are holding us back. 
We forgive and break off the spirit of unforgiveness. (We don’t have to agree with the person or people who wanted us to forgive them.)
Lord, I ask forgiveness if I have done anything that has hurt anyone … If I’ve come into agreement with anything knowingly or unknowingly against this message. Or anything that would stop You from breaking us out of the old season and into the new.
Also, I ask forgiveness for any misuse of anything You’ve given me, known or unknown. 
Lord, we ask You to flush out the things that are unseen and send them to where the true Jesus sends them.
In the name of the true Lord Jesus. Amen.

Blessings,

    Good evening Doug

    I prayed with Jenn Johnson-Holy Forever and Let my life be worship.
    I saw how God put a mantle over me that was tailored made to fit me just right and a thin red thread was woven through this mantle presenting the blood of Jesus. God gave me a book and a pen with red ink so I can write for Him and in l some bibles Jesus words are written in red. I had this overwhelming love for God and I just want to please Him in all I say and do. God can give me pieces of heaven, fill up my soul, vision for my eyes and understanding of different dimensions and the atmosphere. I want to work for God with all my heart and tell people who He is in my life so they can experience Him also. While I prayed something came to my mind that I didn’t notice until I prayed. When I was with my friend we spoke about food and how she uses carrots a lot in her food. We discussed what was good about carrots and I told her about the time I was a single mom and how I cooked for my children.Then later the afternoon my daughter send me a picture of the first carrots she has grown. There is a link between this carrots and my daughter sends me pictures or talks to me when she sense something about me even if it is unknowingly. This why I love God, He makes me aware of the small things that are very important in the end.
    I fell asleep at 6pm when we had loadshedding and had a dream of a strange place but there was someone with a joker face and he kept coming to me and I said the name of Jesus a couple of times and I did it outloud until I woke up.

    Thank you for helping me to stay in step with God and following where He leads.

    I prayed with Kim Walker Smith-Yield my heart. There are beautiful words in the song and I want to be a place where Gods presence can live. My heart is safe with Jesus and He will always be there no matter what happens around me. I had my heart in my hands and gave it to God to hold it and keep it safe. I also asked God to put His words inside my heart where it can grow and overflow to others

    I listened to Cory Ashbury-Reckless love in 8D and prayed with Lauren Diagle-Thank God I do
    I heard a lot of things yesterday and what I wrote in my devotion made more sense to me now that I prayed. God took me up and gave me an overview of the many situations in people’s lives. I was connecting the dots from the one story to the other and saw how witchcraft and lies caused so many problems. I am very grateful for God’s protection in my life and those I love. I recognized familiar patterns and then God said that He wants to start a new order, a new way of doing so others will find strength and encouragement in where He is working and what He is doing. Setting a new Godly standard of living with love, protection and peace.

    Good morning Doug

    When you say God is doing a new thing then it makes me think back almost 4years ago when I saw my man the first time in church. He had a long sleeve purple shirt on with black pants. He was talking to the pastor. I was cautious to talk to him in Wimpy but you kept prompting me to go and say hello to him and introduce myself. So I did and here we are now with a history of back and forth, up and down, a crazy rollercoaster ride. Yesterday he was talking to our pastor again and certain things have not changed but so much have for the good our love for each other. We helped each other fighting the demons in our lives that followed us for years and didn’t want us to be together. Back to back covering each other and standing together. I loved him from the beginning and remebered saying to him, my feelings for him are just there, I can’t helped it and still to this day.

    I prayed the Vinesong-Let Your living water flow over my soul.
    Jenn Johnson-Holy Forever
    I cried more than I prayed tonight, my body hurts and I feel so drained
    I asked God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit to do something because I can’t carry on like this.
    I felt really confident and strong in myself when I spoke to the management of the old age home today. I didn’t back down when the nurses came with their lies and I had an authoritve straight voice being very sure in what I was saying. I just thought that they don’t know what I have been through to stay here in Heidelberg for my parents trying to survive. I felt the layers of strength inside me with my hidden weapons spiritual insight, knowledge to take anyone one on although I felt weak and tired in my body. Now I just let it all out and cried, falling into the arms of Jesus knowing He can relate to my pain and struggle and His blood is not useless, but has power helping me to overcome.

    Devotion

    Incentives to strive in prayer

    We can’t pray without Jesus
    He takes out hand and help us through it
    Being our eyes and light in the darkness
    Comforted by His voice and kindness

    Praying by the love of the Spirit
    Come together in persistent effort
    God’s love will propel us forward
    Establish us into a new order

    John 17:6-3
    Jesus Prays for His Disciples
    6 “I have revealed you[a] to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. 7 Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. 8 For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. 9 I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. 10 All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. 11 I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of[b] your name, the name you gave me, so that they may be one as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by[c] that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.

    Something interesting just happened. I was looking for a song to pray with when the song of Michael W Smith – Heart of worship started to play. I don’t have the song on my playlist and it wasn’t playing on YouTube. I prayed with the song saying thank you to God for sending Jesus and for people who care about me. The song played about 5-6 times and just stopped by itself. I don’t know where it came from but it was a special gift for tonight after the hard day I had. Jesus can relate to my pain and know about suffering like nobody else, but also knows how to resurrect me to rise again.

    I prayed with Jenn Johnson-Send me. I asked God to send me to the right place where I reflect Him in my life and fulfill the purpose He has for my life. I saw myself standing with just my backpack infront of God and said I am ready to go.
