Today's topic I want to pray for healthcare professionals. 00:00:31.49\00:00:35.70 Isaiah 40:28-31 scripture, I really love. 00:00:35.73\00:00:39.80 "Have you not known? 00:00:39.83\00:00:41.17 Have you not heard? 00:00:41.20\00:00:42.54 The everlasting God, the Lord, 00:00:42.57\00:00:43.91 the Creator of the ends of the earth, 00:00:43.94\00:00:45.87 neither faints nor is weary. 00:00:45.91\00:00:48.18 His understanding is unsearchable. 00:00:48.21\00:00:50.41 He gives power to the weak, 00:00:50.45\00:00:52.08 And to those who have no might He increases strength. 00:00:52.11\00:00:55.58 Even the youth shall faint and be weary, 00:00:55.62\00:00:58.05 and the young men shall utterly fail, 00:00:58.09\00:01:00.56 but those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength. 00:01:00.59\00:01:03.63 They shall mount up with wings like eagles, 00:01:03.66\00:01:05.89 they shall run and not be weary, 00:01:05.93\00:01:08.10 they shall walk and not faint." 00:01:08.13\00:01:10.87 With the struggles and the challenges 00:01:10.90\00:01:12.77 that healthcare providers face, 00:01:12.80\00:01:14.64 they need that extra strength that God can give them. 00:01:14.67\00:01:17.47 And I love how this says the Creator never faints. 00:01:17.51\00:01:21.34 He's never weary. 00:01:21.38\00:01:22.71 He's always there to give us strength when we need it. 00:01:22.74\00:01:26.88 Another verse of great consolation 00:01:26.92\00:01:28.72 in the next chapter, Isaiah 41:10, 00:01:28.75\00:01:32.49 "Fear not for I am with you, 00:01:32.52\00:01:34.46 be not dismayed for I am your God, 00:01:34.49\00:01:37.29 I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, 00:01:37.33\00:01:39.83 I will uphold you with my righteous right hand." 00:01:39.86\00:01:43.10 I love thinking about God reaching down 00:01:43.13\00:01:45.50 and holding us up with His hand 00:01:45.53\00:01:47.20 at just the time we need His strength. 00:01:47.24\00:01:50.17 Days are filled with sorrow and care 00:01:56.18\00:02:03.72 Hearts are lonely and drear 00:02:03.75\00:02:11.39 Burdens are lifted 00:02:11.43\00:02:15.60 At Calvary 00:02:15.63\00:02:20.04 Jesus is 00:02:20.07\00:02:22.40 Very near 00:02:22.44\00:02:28.71 Burdens are lifted 00:02:28.74\00:02:33.31 At Calvary 00:02:33.35\00:02:37.32 Calvary, 00:02:37.35\00:02:41.72 Calvary 00:02:41.76\00:02:45.63 Burdens are lifted 00:02:45.66\00:02:50.10 At Calvary 00:02:50.13\00:02:55.14 Jesus is very 00:02:55.17\00:03:01.48 Near 00:03:01.51\00:03:06.01 Our Father in heaven, our Creator and Redeemer, 00:03:06.05\00:03:10.29 I come before You today claiming these promises 00:03:10.32\00:03:13.15 on behalf of all the healthcare workers 00:03:13.19\00:03:15.29 around the world. 00:03:15.32\00:03:17.03 Many are working long hours facing frustration, 00:03:17.06\00:03:20.16 weariness, and fear. 00:03:20.20\00:03:22.93 Some are battling a virus that is new and different, 00:03:22.96\00:03:26.03 and in many ways, cases deadly. 00:03:26.07\00:03:28.97 Others are wondering 00:03:29.00\00:03:30.34 when and if the virus will strike where they are. 00:03:30.37\00:03:33.81 And if they're doing enough and have the right equipment 00:03:33.84\00:03:36.48 to protect their patients themselves and their families. 00:03:36.51\00:03:41.58 I claim Your power for the weak. 00:03:41.62\00:03:45.09 Please increase their strength and let them feel Your hand 00:03:45.12\00:03:48.86 holding them up. 00:03:48.89\00:03:50.73 I pray they will know and recognize 00:03:50.76\00:03:53.29 where their strength comes from. 00:03:53.33\00:03:55.83 Thank You for hearing and answering my prayer. 00:03:55.86\00:03:59.40 In Jesus' name I pray, amen. 00:03:59.43\00:04:02.24 My father, I want to thank You for all the healthcare workers 00:04:06.61\00:04:10.11 who place their lives on the line to help those 00:04:10.15\00:04:12.88 who are so sick. 00:04:12.91\00:04:14.62 Lord, many of them are Your followers. 00:04:14.65\00:04:17.52 And they longed for the opportunity 00:04:17.55\00:04:19.35 to share the hope that they have in Jesus 00:04:19.39\00:04:21.52 with their patients. 00:04:21.56\00:04:23.32 Please give them those opportunities 00:04:23.36\00:04:25.69 and protect them with Your mighty hand. 00:04:25.73\00:04:28.70 I pray for their families as well. 00:04:28.73\00:04:31.17 Father, this is work of the highest calling, 00:04:31.20\00:04:34.74 and I pray for Your mercy on them 00:04:34.77\00:04:36.60 should they become ill themselves. 00:04:36.64\00:04:39.24 Father, thank You for Your promise 00:04:39.27\00:04:41.51 that Jesus has already taken our infirmities upon Himself 00:04:41.54\00:04:45.48 and borne our sicknesses. 00:04:45.51\00:04:48.15 We place our faith in You and pray in Jesus' name. 00:04:48.18\00:04:52.32 Amen. 00:04:52.35\00:04:53.69 Dear Heavenly Father, 00:04:57.76\00:04:59.29 we come to You now with grateful hearts 00:04:59.33\00:05:01.46 for all You have done for us. 00:05:01.50\00:05:03.33 Lord, we just want to thank You and praise You 00:05:03.37\00:05:05.77 for who You are. 00:05:05.80\00:05:07.20 And for what You have done in our lives. 00:05:07.24\00:05:09.07 We are asking today Father, in the name of Jesus, 00:05:09.10\00:05:12.71 that You would be with all of the doctors, the nurses, 00:05:12.74\00:05:16.21 all of the healthcare professionals and volunteers, 00:05:16.24\00:05:19.01 Lord, all of those 00:05:19.05\00:05:20.48 who are working hours upon hours with no rest, 00:05:20.52\00:05:24.09 risking their lives to help others 00:05:24.12\00:05:25.75 during this time of need. 00:05:25.79\00:05:27.46 We're asking, Father, 00:05:27.49\00:05:28.89 that You would send the Holy Spirit 00:05:28.92\00:05:31.06 and that You would put Your hand of protection 00:05:31.09\00:05:33.09 around everyone working to save lives. 00:05:33.13\00:05:35.96 And we will thank You for what You have done 00:05:36.00\00:05:38.57 and what You're going to do in the precious name of Jesus. 00:05:38.60\00:05:42.47 Amen. 00:05:42.50\00:05:43.84 So cast your care 00:05:47.24\00:05:50.65 On Jesus today 00:05:50.68\00:05:55.95 Just leave your worry 00:05:55.98\00:05:59.52 And fear 00:05:59.55\00:06:04.29 For burdens are lifted 00:06:04.33\00:06:08.60 At Calvary 00:06:08.63\00:06:13.23 Jesus is 00:06:13.27\00:06:15.60 Very near 00:06:15.64\00:06:22.71 Troubled soul, 00:06:22.74\00:06:25.21 The Savior can see 00:06:25.25\00:06:29.92 Every heartache 00:06:29.95\00:06:33.62 And tear 00:06:33.66\00:06:38.23 Burdens are lifted 00:06:38.26\00:06:42.66 At Calvary 00:06:42.70\00:06:47.27 Jesus is very 00:06:47.30\00:06:53.58 Near

who cares for us, loves us with an everlasting love. 00:07:03.65\00:07:06.82 We come to You today, we want to lift up the doctors 00:07:06.86\00:07:09.46 and the nurses those who are in healthcare situations 00:07:09.49\00:07:12.96 are looking after other individuals who are sick. 00:07:12.99\00:07:16.10 We ask a very special blessing upon them those 00:07:16.13\00:07:18.40 who are risking their very life, 00:07:18.43\00:07:20.24 that others may have their life and so we lift them up, 00:07:20.27\00:07:23.30 to pray for the Holy Spirit to draw close to them. 00:07:23.34\00:07:26.68 Give them strength and wisdom and knowledge 00:07:26.71\00:07:29.34 how to handle these situations, 00:07:29.38\00:07:31.25 that they can be a comfort to those who are in need. 00:07:31.28\00:07:33.88 We thank You that You are comforter today 00:07:33.92\00:07:35.75 and we ask again thy Holy Spirit 00:07:35.78\00:07:37.19 will just consume each and every one of us 00:07:37.22\00:07:39.35 bring healing to this nation and to each individual. 00:07:39.39\00:07:42.09 We thank You in Jesus' name, amen. 00:07:42.12\00:07:44.19 Loving Father, I lift up to You the doctors, 00:07:49.36\00:07:52.33 nurses, physician's assistants and aids, 00:07:52.37\00:07:55.87 those well trained in the medical field 00:07:55.90\00:07:58.04 who work tirelessly to tend to us physically and mentally, 00:07:58.07\00:08:02.01 and assist in promoting optimal health. 00:08:02.04\00:08:04.98 Their task is never ending. 00:08:05.01\00:08:06.98 And so often they put themselves 00:08:07.02\00:08:08.78 in harm's way to risk helping their patients. 00:08:08.82\00:08:12.12 Father God, please be a fence around them, 00:08:12.15\00:08:15.42 a hedge of protection, 00:08:15.46\00:08:17.09 guarding them from illness and disease. 00:08:17.13\00:08:19.93 Lord, build up their resistance to the infections 00:08:19.96\00:08:22.53 and viruses they come in contact with. 00:08:22.56\00:08:25.40 Give them grace and mercy 00:08:25.43\00:08:27.57 to love those who are sick and hurting. 00:08:27.60\00:08:31.01 Please guide their hands and hearts 00:08:31.04\00:08:33.24 as they help those in need. 00:08:33.27\00:08:35.54 Grant them the compassion Lord that You showed 00:08:35.58\00:08:38.85 to those who were sick when You were on earth. 00:08:38.88\00:08:42.25 In Jesus' name we pray, amen. 00:08:42.28\00:08:44.29 Dear Lord, today we pray for Your peace. 00:08:49.96\00:08:52.96 We pray that the peace of God 00:08:52.99\00:08:54.50 which transcends all understanding, 00:08:54.53\00:08:57.00 will guard the hearts and minds of those 00:08:57.03\00:08:59.20 who are serving in our healthcare systems. 00:08:59.23\00:09:02.27 We also ask for courage for them. 00:09:02.30\00:09:04.61 We know that You did not give us a spirit of fear, 00:09:04.64\00:09:07.61 but of power and love and a sound mind. 00:09:07.64\00:09:10.61 So we thank You for giving each one of them 00:09:10.65\00:09:13.18 the courage to face and serve each day. 00:09:13.21\00:09:16.32 Lord, grant them with a sound mind 00:09:16.35\00:09:18.42 as they make decisions. 00:09:18.45\00:09:20.22 May they be blessed with the wisdom and grace needed 00:09:20.26\00:09:23.69 to provide the best care possible 00:09:23.73\00:09:25.43 to those who have been assigned to them. 00:09:25.46\00:09:27.90 Please bring to light the things 00:09:27.93\00:09:29.40 that they should know 00:09:29.43\00:09:30.77 and guide them in each step that they take. 00:09:30.80\00:09:33.44 We love You, Father, 00:09:33.47\00:09:34.80 and we are blessed to have those 00:09:34.84\00:09:36.40 who you have gifted in service, 00:09:36.44\00:09:38.41 to care for us and meet our needs. 00:09:38.44\00:09:41.24 Remind us to make sure that they know 00:09:41.28\00:09:43.31 we are praying for them 00:09:43.35\00:09:44.98 and that we truly appreciate their dedication 00:09:45.01\00:09:47.62 and service to us. 00:09:47.65\00:09:49.28 May Your love and peace follow them each day. 00:09:49.32\00:09:52.95 In the name of Jesus' we pray. 00:09:52.99\00:09:54.52 Jeremiah 29:11 says, 00:09:57.33\00:09:59.63 "For I know the plans I have for You, 00:09:59.66\00:10:01.93 declares the Lord, 00:10:01.96\00:10:03.87 plans to prosper you and not harm you, 00:10:03.90\00:10:08.10 plans to give you hope and a future." 00:10:08.14\00:10:11.91 Father, I don't read sickness in any of that. 00:10:11.94\00:10:17.71 I read good things in that. 00:10:17.75\00:10:19.98 So I'm praying that those things 00:10:20.02\00:10:25.99 that You have planned for us 00:10:26.02\00:10:27.76 will become manifested in our lives. 00:10:27.79\00:10:32.23 And I thank You that You have only good in store for us. 00:10:32.26\00:10:39.10 Matthew 25:40 says, 00:10:39.13\00:10:40.97 "Whatever you did for one of the least of these 00:10:41.00\00:10:43.57 brothers of Mine, you did it for Me." 00:10:43.61\00:10:46.78 Father, I thank You for the good works 00:10:49.81\00:10:53.68 that our healthcare professionals do. 00:10:53.72\00:10:56.65 The compassion that they have and... 00:10:59.99\00:11:03.22 Lord, I know that it's in Your heart too, 00:11:03.26\00:11:07.83 to work through those professionals 00:11:07.86\00:11:11.43 to show love to the patients. 00:11:11.47\00:11:16.64 Matthew 6:34 says, 00:11:19.84\00:11:22.04 "Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, 00:11:22.08\00:11:24.41 for tomorrow will worry about itself. 00:11:24.45\00:11:27.22 Each day has enough trouble of its own." 00:11:27.25\00:11:31.72 We're aware of that for sure. 00:11:31.75\00:11:35.82 So I pray God that You will touch those 00:11:35.86\00:11:39.26 who seem to be overwhelmed with worry... 00:11:39.29\00:11:43.37 about what the future holds. 00:11:43.40\00:11:46.70 It brings anxiety to them and they have trouble sleeping 00:11:46.74\00:11:50.34 at night it affects their health. 00:11:50.37\00:11:54.54 Worry is such a troublesome thing 00:11:54.58\00:11:57.18 and... 00:11:57.21\00:11:59.08 you don't guarantee that life will be without it. 00:11:59.11\00:12:02.92 In fact, you say that each day has its own share of worry 00:12:02.95\00:12:08.39 of trouble rather, I guess, 00:12:08.42\00:12:10.86 that You will help us to know the difference between 00:12:10.89\00:12:14.90 trouble and worrying about our trouble. 00:12:14.93\00:12:19.10 Again, we rely on You to be our confidence and our hope 00:12:19.13\00:12:25.41 and to bring everything to You knowing that 00:12:25.44\00:12:28.91 You care about us. 00:12:28.94\00:12:31.41 And because You have good plan for us, 00:12:31.45\00:12:34.92 we can leave our cares with You 00:12:34.95\00:12:37.22 and not have to worry about anything. 00:12:37.25\00:12:38.99 So, Father, I pray for those who are watching, 00:12:42.46\00:12:46.23 who have issues with their marriage and family... 00:12:46.26\00:12:48.56 for those who are in need of salvation, O mighty God, 00:12:51.10\00:12:54.00 I pray that You will 00:12:54.04\00:12:55.97 allow Your Holy Spirit to stir up in them. 00:12:56.00\00:13:01.08 The cry to cry out to You for salvation. 00:13:01.11\00:13:07.88 For surgeries, 00:13:07.92\00:13:09.25 those who are going through surgeries 00:13:09.28\00:13:10.62 and who need healing... 00:13:10.65\00:13:14.86 Father, we remember. 00:13:14.89\00:13:16.42 The burdens are lifted 00:13:19.26\00:13:23.90 At Calvary 00:13:23.93\00:13:28.44 Calvary, thank God,
