Hi, welcome back
to 10 Days of Prayer.
00:00:17.58\00:00:19.78
We're on Day 4.
00:00:19.81\00:00:21.35
My friend Donald Owen and I
00:00:21.38\00:00:23.28
want to remind you to take
a moment to pause and pray.
00:00:23.32\00:00:27.66
Do you wonder
why the Holy Spirit
00:00:27.69\00:00:29.06
is missing in your life?
00:00:29.09\00:00:30.89
God invites us to continually
ask for His Holy Spirit.
00:00:30.93\00:00:34.13
But James 4:2-3 says,
00:00:34.16\00:00:37.50
"You do not have
because you do not ask,
00:00:37.53\00:00:39.93
you ask and do not
receive because you ask amiss."
00:00:39.97\00:00:43.30
By my experience, I
can almost guarantee
00:00:43.34\00:00:45.74
that once you begin inviting
the Holy Spirit into your day
00:00:45.77\00:00:48.84
and you surrender to His plans,
00:00:48.88\00:00:50.88
you will be so
amazed at the way He moves
00:00:50.91\00:00:53.25
and the doors He opens
00:00:53.28\00:00:54.72
that you won't
want to miss a day
00:00:54.75\00:00:56.72
without inviting
Him to be in charge.
00:00:56.75\00:00:59.62
But what does it
mean to ask amiss?
00:00:59.65\00:01:02.82
Simply put, God cannot bless
00:01:02.86\00:01:05.16
when our minds are set
on things of the flesh.
00:01:05.19\00:01:08.93
Paul explains to be
carnally minded is death,
00:01:08.96\00:01:12.47
but to be spiritually
minded is life and peace.
00:01:12.50\00:01:17.64
God's Word describes
three groups of people
00:01:17.67\00:01:20.38
and their relationship
to Him, the natural,
00:01:20.41\00:01:23.14
the spirit
filled and the fleshly.
00:01:23.18\00:01:25.91
The natural man
lives in the world
00:01:25.95\00:01:27.82
with no God
relationship whatsoever,
00:01:27.85\00:01:30.05
spiritual things
are foolishness to him.
00:01:30.09\00:01:32.39
The spirit filled person
00:01:32.42\00:01:33.89
has a full genuine
relationship with God
00:01:33.92\00:01:36.89
and possesses
the mind of Christ.
00:01:36.93\00:01:39.69
The fleshly person
00:01:39.73\00:01:41.10
has an un-devoted
relationship with God.
00:01:41.13\00:01:44.37
In 1 Corinthians
3, Paul tells them,
00:01:44.40\00:01:47.07
"I could not speak to
you as to spiritual people,
00:01:47.10\00:01:49.67
but as to carnal as
to babes in Christ,"
00:01:49.70\00:01:53.64
because they were still allowing
00:01:53.68\00:01:55.14
for worldly impulses.
00:01:55.18\00:01:57.38
They weren't fully
putting into practice
00:01:57.41\00:01:59.38
the power of the Holy Spirit.
00:01:59.41\00:02:02.05
Do you want more of
Jesus, more of the Holy Spirit?
00:02:02.08\00:02:07.29
Then I encourage you
to dive into God's Word
00:02:07.32\00:02:10.13
and commit to combat the flesh.
00:02:10.16\00:02:14.36
This song is a powerful
prayer for that very thing.
00:02:14.40\00:02:17.07
May the mind of Christ My Savior
00:02:26.98\00:02:33.31
Live in me from day to day
00:02:33.35\00:02:38.42
By His love and power control
00:02:38.45\00:02:43.63
All I do and say
00:02:43.66\00:02:49.53
May the Word of God dwell richly
00:02:49.56\00:02:54.87
In my heart from hour to hour
00:02:54.90\00:02:59.81
So that all may see I triumph
00:02:59.84\00:03:05.41
Only through His power
00:03:05.45\00:03:11.85
May the peace of God My Father
00:03:11.89\00:03:17.09
Rule my life in everything
00:03:17.13\00:03:22.83
That I may be called to comfort
00:03:22.86\00:03:28.67
Sick and sorrowing
00:03:28.70\00:03:32.97
One more verse, listen to this.
00:03:33.01\00:03:34.98
May the love of Jesus fill me
00:03:35.01\00:03:40.28
As the waters fill the sea
00:03:40.32\00:03:45.85
Him exalting, self abasing
00:03:45.89\00:03:52.06
This is victory
00:03:52.09\00:03:58.60
When we lift up
Christ and we realize
00:03:58.63\00:04:02.20
that is when He increases
and I decrease, that's victory.
00:04:02.24\00:04:09.01
So we can put
revival into practice
00:04:09.04\00:04:11.35
and we can
invite the Holy Spirit
00:04:11.38\00:04:13.11
to rule over our lives.
00:04:13.15\00:04:15.68
We can give Him full sway.
00:04:15.72\00:04:18.62
We have that
authority, we have that power.
00:04:18.65\00:04:20.82
Wow, what a gift!
00:04:20.86\00:04:22.79
And I encourage you to
take advantage of that.
00:04:22.82\00:04:29.10
Donald, you wanna
pray for us? Sure.
00:04:29.13\00:04:31.93
Our Heavenly Father, we
want to thank You, Lord,
00:04:31.97\00:04:34.10
You didn't come to
be served but to serve.
00:04:34.14\00:04:37.91
And that's what
You're looking for.
00:04:37.94\00:04:39.27
Lord, I'm
thinking of 1 Peter 5:6,
00:04:39.31\00:04:42.01
it says, "Humble yourselves
00:04:42.04\00:04:43.38
therefore under
the mighty hand of God,
00:04:43.41\00:04:45.45
that He may
exalt you in due time."
00:04:45.48\00:04:46.82
So we're asking.
00:04:46.85\00:04:48.18
Lord, fill us
with Your Holy Spirit,
00:04:48.22\00:04:49.78
help us to die to self,
00:04:49.82\00:04:51.85
help us to surrender our lives
00:04:51.89\00:04:54.49
to be mold and
fashioned by Yours.
00:04:54.52\00:04:57.13
And that, Lord, we
can truly reflect You,
00:04:57.16\00:04:58.93
we can truly resemble You,
00:04:58.96\00:05:01.03
we can truly reveal
You but more importantly,
00:05:01.06\00:05:02.96
we can represent You.
00:05:03.00\00:05:04.33
We thank You, and ask
this is in Jesus' name.
00:05:04.37\00:05:06.57
Amen.
00:05:06.60\00:05:07.94
That's great, so
that we can represent You.
00:05:07.97\00:05:12.54
What an awesome responsibility.
00:05:12.57\00:05:16.44
Father God, we
have so many needs,
00:05:16.48\00:05:18.18
so many viewers,
00:05:18.21\00:05:20.02
people around the world
00:05:20.05\00:05:22.58
who are calling in,
00:05:22.62\00:05:24.35
requesting prayer for
healing in their marriage.
00:05:24.39\00:05:29.59
This one writes,
00:05:29.62\00:05:30.96
"Pray for divine
intervention in my marriage."
00:05:30.99\00:05:33.03
It says, "He doesn't even
want me listening to 3ABN.
00:05:36.73\00:05:42.27
He becomes loud and angry.
00:05:42.30\00:05:43.77
Father, we recognize that...
00:05:46.41\00:05:50.91
Satan will do
everything in his power...
00:05:50.95\00:05:56.18
to prevent the Word of God...
00:05:56.22\00:06:01.72
from making strides.
00:06:01.76\00:06:06.49
But, God, we thank
You that You're greater,
00:06:06.53\00:06:09.80
that Your Word has
proven to be more powerful,
00:06:09.83\00:06:16.37
that You hold the
gates, the keys...
00:06:16.40\00:06:19.11
to hell and death in the grave.
00:06:21.98\00:06:25.08
Father, I thank You
that You are the victor.
00:06:25.11\00:06:28.48
And we have victory
in You in Jesus' name.
00:06:28.52\00:06:34.36
This person writes,
"Pray for my daughter
00:06:34.39\00:06:36.06
who was thought to be
ending cancer treatment.
00:06:36.09\00:06:38.19
But now more
spots have shown up.
00:06:38.23\00:06:40.53
Pray for those
fighting symptoms of COVID-19.
00:06:40.56\00:06:43.53
Pray for those with
cancer undergoing chemotherapy.
00:06:43.57\00:06:47.27
Pray for those with
cellulitis or for a toddler
00:06:47.30\00:06:50.31
fighting the side
effects of medication
00:06:50.34\00:06:52.47
that are used to
combat his illness.
00:06:52.51\00:06:54.94
So, Lord, we just
really want to pray
00:06:54.98\00:06:56.31
for all those right now, Lord.
00:06:56.34\00:06:59.55
Modern medicine, very important,
00:06:59.58\00:07:01.08
obviously
there's a place for it.
00:07:01.12\00:07:02.45
But, Lord, You're
the great physician.
00:07:02.48\00:07:05.12
And You will heal
us one day You promised
00:07:05.15\00:07:08.59
that You will never
leave us nor forsake us,
00:07:08.62\00:07:10.26
and that You're
always at our side.
00:07:10.29\00:07:11.63
You said in John 16:33,
00:07:11.66\00:07:13.36
"To be of good cheer, for
You've overcome the world."
00:07:13.40\00:07:15.90
We can overcome.
00:07:15.93\00:07:17.27
Philippians 4:13, "I can
do all things through Christ
00:07:17.30\00:07:20.27
who strengthens me."
00:07:20.30\00:07:21.64
Lord, may You
strengthen Your children today,
00:07:21.67\00:07:23.61
help them, those
who are seeing disease,
00:07:23.64\00:07:26.64
it was never in Your intent
00:07:26.68\00:07:28.94
for us to have to
experience cancer or tumors
00:07:28.98\00:07:32.15
or all these illnesses that
we're seeing spread rampant.
00:07:32.18\00:07:37.15
You want us to
have life eternal,
00:07:37.19\00:07:39.52
to have health
and joy and peace.
00:07:39.55\00:07:41.72
And that's what You
offer us when we ask You in.
00:07:41.76\00:07:44.79
So I ask, Lord, that
You'll touch these people
00:07:44.83\00:07:46.43
in a special way, help
them more to win this battle,
00:07:46.46\00:07:49.16
that they can put
their confidence and trust
00:07:49.20\00:07:50.77
in the one who
will restore them.
00:07:50.80\00:07:52.47
We pray this in Jesus' name.
00:07:52.50\00:07:54.50
Amen.
00:07:54.54\00:07:56.84
And, Father,
00:07:56.87\00:07:58.21
seems like a recurring prayer,
00:07:58.24\00:08:04.31
prayer for relationships.
00:08:04.35\00:08:08.38
This viewer requests
prayer for the relationship
00:08:08.42\00:08:12.62
between them and their children.
00:08:12.65\00:08:16.39
Lord, I am grateful
for a loving family.
00:08:16.42\00:08:22.96
I'm grateful for
loving relationships.
00:08:23.00\00:08:28.10
God, help us to be
humble and to serve one another,
00:08:28.14\00:08:30.71
to love one another,
to admit when we're wrong.
00:08:30.74\00:08:35.14
And not even really to
care about who's right or wrong,
00:08:35.18\00:08:39.88
but to love.
00:08:39.91\00:08:42.12
So, Father, I just
pray that You will restore
00:08:42.15\00:08:45.72
the hearts of
children to their parents.
00:08:45.75\00:08:48.62
God, I know that I love my
sons and I want them to call me
00:08:52.29\00:08:57.23
and just to stay close
to me, stay connected to me.
00:08:57.27\00:09:02.60
So, God, just as You want
us to stay connected to You,
00:09:02.64\00:09:06.57
Lord God, I pray for
these grieving parents,
00:09:06.61\00:09:10.88
that You will
turn their children
00:09:10.91\00:09:13.18
back to that Jesus name.
00:09:13.21\00:09:17.59
Well, we have another request,
00:09:17.62\00:09:18.95
"We pray for a
spiritual revival among
00:09:18.99\00:09:21.49
Christian young people
who attend public colleges."
00:09:21.52\00:09:24.59
Oh, Lord.
00:09:24.63\00:09:25.96
We're asking, Lord, that
You'd touch these young people
00:09:25.99\00:09:28.23
in a special way.
00:09:28.26\00:09:30.17
I'm forced to
think about Samuel.
00:09:30.20\00:09:34.04
An interesting story, Lord,
00:09:34.07\00:09:35.40
that You came and
touched this young man
00:09:35.44\00:09:36.91
and used him to create a spark
00:09:36.94\00:09:39.41
as Eli and his sons saw
that flame begin to flicker
00:09:39.44\00:09:42.01
because of their disobedience.
00:09:42.04\00:09:44.68
But You have young people, Lord,
00:09:44.71\00:09:46.08
who will be
obedient to Your call,
00:09:46.11\00:09:48.82
who will stand, who will
listen and fill in the gap
00:09:48.85\00:09:51.65
for those who are
suffering and struggling,
00:09:51.69\00:09:54.32
that they will
be mighty warriors
00:09:54.36\00:09:55.79
just like Gideon,
00:09:55.82\00:09:57.33
from mighty warrior Gideon
that You'll raise up a people.
00:09:57.36\00:09:59.86
Lord, You'll set a
standard before them
00:09:59.89\00:10:02.06
and that where they will be
able to be warriors for You.
00:10:02.10\00:10:04.53
We ask that You'll touch
and anoint these young people.
00:10:04.57\00:10:07.10
And they will be
a fire and a force
00:10:07.14\00:10:08.87
not of their
strength but of Yours.
00:10:08.90\00:10:10.24
We thank You and
ask this in Jesus' name.
00:10:10.27\00:10:12.54
Amen.
00:10:12.57\00:10:14.64
Father, I lift up missionaries,
00:10:14.68\00:10:17.45
who are serving in countries
00:10:17.48\00:10:20.05
that being a
Christian missionary
00:10:20.08\00:10:22.65
is the last thing
that you would think
00:10:22.68\00:10:25.35
anybody would want to be
00:10:25.39\00:10:26.72
for fear of
persecution and the dangers.
00:10:26.76\00:10:33.23
We read of missionaries
who are thrown into prison,
00:10:33.26\00:10:38.97
their houses burned.
00:10:39.00\00:10:41.60
And I wonder where are
You God in those times?
00:10:41.64\00:10:46.04
Father, I know
that You are able to use
00:10:46.07\00:10:49.88
these situations for Your glory.
00:10:49.91\00:10:52.41
And I'm reminded that
our life, it doesn't matter.
00:10:52.45\00:10:58.15
If one soul comes to
know You through our life,
00:10:58.19\00:11:02.79
then it's worth
dying for You if necessary.
00:11:02.82\00:11:08.03
Holy God...
00:11:08.06\00:11:10.90
I pray that You will give
our missionaries boldness,
00:11:10.93\00:11:15.10
Holy Spirit protect, guide,
00:11:15.14\00:11:18.97
give them favor among the locals
00:11:19.01\00:11:22.38
and among the authorities.
00:11:22.41\00:11:26.35
Lord God,
00:11:26.38\00:11:27.88
thank You that we have
such an awesome message
00:11:27.92\00:11:30.19
that it's worth
risking our life.
00:11:30.22\00:11:32.49
Thank You for Your Word.
00:11:35.72\00:11:37.23
Amen.
00:11:37.26\00:11:39.46
Heavenly
Father, we wanna lift up
00:11:39.49\00:11:42.06
this world to You.
00:11:42.10\00:11:43.97
Your Word in
Isaiah 60:2 tells us
00:11:44.00\00:11:46.97
that "Darkness covers the earth
and gross darkness the people."
00:11:47.00\00:11:50.41
So many souls,
Lord, are perishing
00:11:50.44\00:11:52.11
for want and need of.
00:11:52.14\00:11:54.14
What really is
this life all about?
00:11:54.18\00:11:58.58
We're talking about this
concept of revival, Lord,
00:11:58.61\00:12:00.95
we need a
refreshing that we may stand
00:12:00.98\00:12:05.02
in the presence of a
holy God one day soon.
00:12:05.05\00:12:07.39
I believe You're
coming very soon.
00:12:07.42\00:12:09.46
I'm forced to
think about Isaiah 58
00:12:09.49\00:12:11.56
talking about that we
lose the bands of wickedness,
00:12:11.59\00:12:13.53
we undo the heavy burdens.
00:12:13.56\00:12:15.46
We let the oppressed go free.
00:12:15.50\00:12:16.83
We break every yoke,
every enslaving yoke.
00:12:16.87\00:12:20.30
And we feed
those who are hungry,
00:12:20.34\00:12:21.67
we clothe those who
don't have clothing,
00:12:21.70\00:12:24.14
we take care of those who
are considered outcasts, Lord.
00:12:24.17\00:12:26.11
And You said that
when we do this in verse 8,
00:12:26.14\00:12:28.34
that our health
will return speedily.
00:12:28.38\00:12:30.95
So we're asking that
00:12:30.98\00:12:33.08
we can be those
hands and feet of Jesus
00:12:33.11\00:12:34.92
that we can bring
about the love of Christ
00:12:34.95\00:12:37.85
to those souls who
are perishing in darkness.
00:12:37.89\00:12:40.76
You want none to perish,
but all have everlasting life.
00:12:40.79\00:12:43.16
So we thank You, Lord,
we ask this in Jesus' name.
00:12:43.19\00:12:45.96
Amen.
00:12:45.99\00:12:49.43
Thank you, Lord.
00:12:49.46\00:12:50.80
I know that You have many people
00:12:53.94\00:12:56.81
that are running
through your mind,
00:12:56.84\00:12:59.47
family and
friends and loved ones
00:12:59.51\00:13:01.24
and people that you
run into on the street
00:13:01.28\00:13:03.65
that have needs.
00:13:03.68\00:13:06.85
I just encourage you to get
on your face before the Lord.
00:13:06.88\00:13:11.52
This is a new year.
00:13:14.96\00:13:18.69
Make a resolve to
spend time with God,
00:13:18.73\00:13:25.13
pleading for His Holy
Spirit to control every thought,
00:13:25.17\00:13:29.04
every step.
00:13:29.07\00:13:32.04
And I just encourage
you that the Word of God
00:13:32.07\00:13:35.31
dwell in you richly,
00:13:35.34\00:13:37.51
and may the mind of
Christ like that verse says,
00:13:37.55\00:13:39.78
"May the mind of
Christ my Savior,
00:13:39.81\00:13:42.58
live in you from day to day."
00:13:42.62\00:13:45.95
We pray in Jesus' name, amen.
00:13:45.99\00:13:48.19
Amen.
00:13:48.22\00:13:49.56
