Today we're praying for strength. 00:00:31.49\00:00:33.93 In his second letter to the Thessalonians, 00:00:33.96\00:00:36.03 Paul exhorts us, 00:00:36.06\00:00:37.40 "Brothers and sisters, pray for us 00:00:37.43\00:00:39.47 that the message of the Lord 00:00:39.50\00:00:40.84 may spread rapidly and be honored 00:00:40.87\00:00:42.80 just as it was with you. 00:00:42.84\00:00:44.57 And pray that we may be delivered 00:00:44.61\00:00:46.47 from wicked and evil people, 00:00:46.51\00:00:48.21 for not everyone has faith, 00:00:48.24\00:00:50.25 but the Lord is faithful 00:00:50.28\00:00:51.61 and He will strengthen you and protect you 00:00:51.65\00:00:53.68 from the evil one." 00:00:53.72\00:00:56.52 Other scriptures about our strength in God 00:00:56.55\00:00:58.69 are 1 Corinthians 16:13, 00:00:58.72\00:01:01.46 "Be on your guard. 00:01:01.49\00:01:02.82 Stand firm in the faith, be courageous, be strong." 00:01:02.86\00:01:06.36 In 1 Timothy 1:7, 00:01:06.39\00:01:08.20 "For God is not given us a spirit of fear, 00:01:08.23\00:01:10.63 but a spirit of power of love and a sound mind." 00:01:10.67\00:01:14.27 And Philippians 4:13 says, 00:01:14.30\00:01:17.01 "I can do all things through Christ 00:01:17.04\00:01:18.84 who gives me strength." 00:01:18.87\00:01:20.68 Finally, Psalm 28:7, 00:01:20.71\00:01:23.35 "The Lord is my strength and my shield, 00:01:23.38\00:01:25.65 my heart trusts in him and he helps me. 00:01:25.68\00:01:28.75 My heart leaps for joy and with my song, I praise Him. 00:01:28.78\00:01:32.42 The Lord is my strength and my shield." 00:01:32.45\00:01:34.92 When I think of strength, 00:01:34.96\00:01:36.62 I think of the mighty power of my heavenly Father. 00:01:36.66\00:01:39.43 And I sing this song. 00:01:39.46\00:01:40.80 I sing the mighty power of God 00:01:46.77\00:01:50.77 That made the mountains rise 00:01:50.81\00:01:54.28 That spread The flowing seas abroad 00:01:54.31\00:01:58.18 And built the lofty skies 00:01:58.21\00:02:01.78 I sing the wisdom that ordained 00:02:01.82\00:02:05.79 The sun to rule the day 00:02:05.82\00:02:09.72 The moon shines full at His command 00:02:09.76\00:02:13.96 And all the stars obey 00:02:14.00\00:02:17.50 Lord, I praise You for Your faithfulness. 00:02:21.07\00:02:23.17 Help me be strong 00:02:23.20\00:02:24.77 and protect me from the evil one. 00:02:24.81\00:02:27.51 I am grateful that 00:02:27.54\00:02:28.88 You've given me not a spirit of fear, 00:02:28.91\00:02:30.28 but a power and love and a sound mind. 00:02:30.31\00:02:33.68 Help me to stand firm in the faith 00:02:33.72\00:02:35.38 and be courageous and strong. 00:02:35.42\00:02:38.72 And help me remember 00:02:38.75\00:02:40.09 that I can do all things through You 00:02:40.12\00:02:41.56 who gives me strength. 00:02:41.59\00:02:43.89 My Father in heaven, holy is Your name. 00:02:43.93\00:02:46.76 May Your kingdom come and Your will be done. 00:02:46.80\00:02:50.07 Please give me what I need today 00:02:50.10\00:02:51.43 my daily bread 00:02:51.47\00:02:52.80 and forgive me 00:02:52.83\00:02:54.17 just as I forgive those around me. 00:02:54.20\00:02:56.20 Don't allow me to fall into temptation, 00:02:56.24\00:02:58.34 but protect me from evil, 00:02:58.37\00:03:00.34 for the kingdom and the power 00:03:00.38\00:03:01.74 and the glory are Yours forever and ever. 00:03:01.78\00:03:04.08 Amen. 00:03:04.11\00:03:05.45 Dear heavenly Father, 00:03:10.39\00:03:12.29 an angel of the Book of Revelation 00:03:12.32\00:03:14.99 called You a lion. 00:03:15.02\00:03:16.62 But John the Revelator saw you as a lamb. 00:03:16.66\00:03:20.40 This is so amazing. 00:03:20.43\00:03:22.86 You being a lion gained the victory as a lamb. 00:03:22.90\00:03:27.74 It is hard for us to understand that our power is in weakness 00:03:27.77\00:03:33.27 because when we recognize that we are weak 00:03:33.31\00:03:36.64 and invite You to dwell in us 00:03:36.68\00:03:39.25 and to completely fill us with your Holy Spirit, 00:03:39.28\00:03:42.72 then through this faith of ours, 00:03:42.75\00:03:45.55 Your righteousness starts indwelling in us 00:03:45.59\00:03:49.96 and Your power acts in us from inside out. 00:03:49.99\00:03:55.03 Please help us 00:03:55.06\00:03:56.40 not to be prideful of our capabilities 00:03:56.43\00:03:59.53 and achievements, 00:03:59.57\00:04:01.20 but take all our pride in You as You use us 00:04:01.24\00:04:06.04 so that Your will in this world is fulfilled, 00:04:06.07\00:04:10.31 in Your precious name we pray. 00:04:10.35\00:04:12.75 Amen. 00:04:12.78\00:04:14.12 Our Father and our God, we thank You 00:04:19.15\00:04:21.26 for Your amazing love towards us 00:04:21.29\00:04:23.86 during this time 00:04:23.89\00:04:25.23 of this COVID-19 pandemic globally. 00:04:25.26\00:04:28.46 We thank You for giving us the strength 00:04:28.50\00:04:30.43 to persevere during these times. 00:04:30.47\00:04:33.27 We ask that You continue to show us with Your strength 00:04:33.30\00:04:37.14 and Your love that we may share and encourage others 00:04:37.17\00:04:40.51 to be strong in this time of need. 00:04:40.54\00:04:43.85 Amen. 00:04:43.88\00:04:45.21 I sing the goodness of the Lord 00:04:48.88\00:04:53.22 Who filled the earth with food 00:04:53.25\00:04:57.03 He formed the creatures With His word 00:04:57.06\00:05:00.73 And then pronounce them good 00:05:00.76\00:05:04.40 Lord how thy wonders Are displayed 00:05:04.43\00:05:08.40 Wherever I turn my eyes 00:05:08.44\00:05:12.64 If I survey the ground I tread 00:05:12.67\00:05:17.55 Or gaze up on the sky 00:05:17.58\00:05:21.15 Father God, I bow before You now, 00:05:25.29\00:05:27.76 asking for a renewed strength. 00:05:27.79\00:05:30.49 God, I seek Your Spirit to come and overwhelm me Lord 00:05:30.53\00:05:35.63 with strength and ability. 00:05:35.66\00:05:38.07 Lord, help me to not be fearful of the things 00:05:38.10\00:05:41.17 that are taking place around me, 00:05:41.20\00:05:42.84 Lord, but to call upon Your name. 00:05:42.87\00:05:45.11 Lord, to rise up with Your strength, 00:05:45.14\00:05:47.91 to seek You and to know You more, Lord. 00:05:47.94\00:05:51.05 With so much uncertainty in the world, God, 00:05:51.08\00:05:53.31 I praise You 00:05:53.35\00:05:54.82 that You give us the strength that we need 00:05:54.85\00:05:57.39 to face it today and every day as we go forward. 00:05:57.42\00:06:01.06 Help us to cling to You, I pray in Jesus' name. 00:06:01.09\00:06:04.13 Amen. 00:06:04.16\00:06:05.49 Our loving heavenly Father, 00:06:10.13\00:06:11.57 thank You for Your blessings of strength. 00:06:11.60\00:06:14.30 Now we know that 00:06:14.34\00:06:15.67 we don't have strength in ourselves, 00:06:15.70\00:06:17.64 we have strength in You. 00:06:17.67\00:06:19.71 And so, Lord, we are asking at this particular moment 00:06:19.74\00:06:22.64 to give us strength. 00:06:22.68\00:06:24.15 We ask for strength in handling any of the challenges 00:06:24.18\00:06:27.12 and stress in our lives. 00:06:27.15\00:06:29.48 Strength for things 00:06:29.52\00:06:30.85 that we know that we will be facing 00:06:30.89\00:06:33.22 and strength to stay on track 00:06:33.25\00:06:35.49 with everything that you want us to do, Lord. 00:06:35.52\00:06:38.09 We need strength in so many different ways 00:06:38.13\00:06:40.60 and we are so happy that we can come to you 00:06:40.63\00:06:43.33 and ask you for strength. 00:06:43.37\00:06:44.97 And we do that, Lord. 00:06:45.00\00:06:46.33 Please give us strength now and always 00:06:46.37\00:06:49.10 in everything that You bless us with, 00:06:49.14\00:06:51.81 we

00:07:20.40\00:07:22.87 Renew in me a clean heart so that I can serve You. 00:07:22.90\00:07:27.64 Guide my actions and thoughts so that I do not falter, 00:07:27.68\00:07:31.81 for I can do all things through Christ, 00:07:31.85\00:07:33.92 which strengthens me. 00:07:33.95\00:07:35.85 Thank you for hearing my prayer in Jesus' name I pray. 00:07:35.88\00:07:39.55 Amen. 00:07:39.59\00:07:40.92 There's not a plant Or flower below 00:07:44.66\00:07:49.53 But makes Thy glories known 00:07:49.56\00:07:53.47 And clouds arise And tempest blow 00:07:53.50\00:07:57.74 By order from Thy throne 00:07:57.77\00:08:01.94 Creatures That borrow life from Thee 00:08:01.98\00:08:05.95 Are subject to Thy care 00:08:05.98\00:08:10.35 There's not a place Where we can flee 00:08:10.39\00:08:15.22 But you are present there 00:08:15.26\00:08:22.16 Father, it is in Your strength. 00:08:22.20\00:08:24.87 And knowing that You are always there, 00:08:24.90\00:08:28.20 that I rejoice 00:08:28.24\00:08:30.01 and that I know I am strong 00:08:30.04\00:08:32.51 because You are strong in me. 00:08:32.54\00:08:35.58 Isaiah 41:10 says, 00:08:35.61\00:08:37.85 "Fear not, for I am
