Welcome back to day
nine of 10 Days of Prayer,
00:00:13.54\00:00:17.28
where we are encouraging
you to pause to pray.
00:00:17.31\00:00:20.88
I wanna thank my
friend and coworker JD Quinn.
00:00:20.92\00:00:25.55
He works in pastoral and
he is just a wonderful man.
00:00:25.59\00:00:28.79
And I love him for
joining me on this journey.
00:00:28.82\00:00:32.79
And today he's
joining us for his last day.
00:00:32.83\00:00:35.16
We have one more day after this
00:00:35.20\00:00:36.67
but, JD, thank you very much.
00:00:36.70\00:00:38.53
I love your heart.
00:00:38.57\00:00:39.90
And I love the
ministry that you have,
00:00:39.93\00:00:41.94
and you were definitely
created for good works,
00:00:41.97\00:00:44.41
like all of us are,
00:00:44.44\00:00:45.77
but you're clearly doing
a wonderful job in pastoral.
00:00:45.81\00:00:49.34
Listen to this
testimony of another man
00:00:49.38\00:00:51.48
created for good works.
00:00:51.51\00:00:53.48
A theology student from
Austria was discouraged.
00:00:53.52\00:00:56.65
He had been invited
to evangelize in Kenya,
00:00:56.69\00:00:59.29
but only 30 guests
showed up each night
00:00:59.32\00:01:01.26
during the first week.
00:01:01.29\00:01:02.72
He had hoped for many more.
00:01:02.76\00:01:04.49
Frustrated, he
locked himself in his room
00:01:04.53\00:01:06.46
and prayed for four hours,
00:01:06.49\00:01:08.60
spreading all his
despair before God.
00:01:08.63\00:01:10.63
He surrendered
himself with his entire being.
00:01:10.67\00:01:13.47
And he waited.
00:01:13.50\00:01:14.84
He was sure God had listened
00:01:14.87\00:01:17.71
though fears and
doubts still troubled him.
00:01:17.74\00:01:20.58
But then came
the evening meeting
00:01:20.61\00:01:22.58
and 600 people arrived.
00:01:22.61\00:01:24.81
Later he had 700, then a 1,000.
00:01:24.85\00:01:27.82
In the end 39 were
baptized by God's grace.
00:01:27.85\00:01:32.29
Whenever we attempt
great things for God,
00:01:32.32\00:01:34.72
we face a vital question.
00:01:34.76\00:01:36.49
Am I working for God
with my own human abilities?
00:01:36.52\00:01:40.56
Or is God working through
me with His divine abilities?
00:01:40.60\00:01:44.80
Ephesians 2:10 tells us
00:01:44.83\00:01:46.37
how strong God
works through weak humans,
00:01:46.40\00:01:49.50
for we are His workmanship
created in Christ Jesus
00:01:49.54\00:01:52.87
for good works,
00:01:52.91\00:01:54.24
which God prepared beforehand
that we should walk in them.
00:01:54.28\00:01:59.71
Working for God
is not by our might,
00:01:59.75\00:02:02.48
not by our power,
00:02:02.52\00:02:04.05
but it's by
surrendering to Christ
00:02:04.09\00:02:06.65
and the Holy Spirit,
00:02:06.69\00:02:08.92
the moving of the Holy Spirit.
00:02:08.96\00:02:10.63
Even Jesus depended on
His connection to heaven.
00:02:10.66\00:02:13.36
In John 14, Jesus
tells His disciples,
00:02:13.40\00:02:16.56
"The words that I speak to you,
00:02:16.60\00:02:18.00
I don't speak on
my own authority,
00:02:18.03\00:02:20.37
but the Father who
dwells in me does the work."
00:02:20.40\00:02:23.77
The Apostle Paul
made no bones about
00:02:23.81\00:02:25.64
how he was able to
carry out his mission.
00:02:25.67\00:02:28.58
When he said,
00:02:28.61\00:02:29.94
"I have been
crucified with Christ.
00:02:29.98\00:02:32.05
It is no longer I who
live, but Christ lives in me."
00:02:32.08\00:02:36.95
So the key is total surrender
00:02:36.99\00:02:41.09
and staying in Christ.
00:02:41.12\00:02:44.09
God wants to do
incredible things through you.
00:02:44.13\00:02:47.30
All to Jesus
00:02:52.37\00:02:56.24
I surrender
00:02:56.27\00:03:00.04
All to Him I freely give
00:03:00.08\00:03:06.38
I will ever love
00:03:06.41\00:03:11.35
And trust Him
00:03:11.39\00:03:13.99
In His presence
00:03:14.02\00:03:17.16
I will daily live
00:03:17.19\00:03:22.46
So I surrender all
00:03:22.50\00:03:26.43
I surrender all
00:03:29.57\00:03:36.51
All to Thee
00:03:36.54\00:03:39.55
My blessed Savior
00:03:39.58\00:03:43.99
I surrender all
00:03:44.02\00:03:48.72
JD, you wanna pray for us? Yes.
00:03:54.30\00:03:57.37
Father, we come again.
00:03:57.40\00:03:59.20
We just thank You,
Lord, that You're Father God.
00:03:59.23\00:04:04.01
Father, that
Jesus is our savior.
00:04:04.04\00:04:07.34
And so, Father,
we just come to You.
00:04:07.38\00:04:09.71
This day we just
wanna be emptied of self.
00:04:09.74\00:04:12.81
Empty us of me,
Lord, fill me with You.
00:04:12.85\00:04:16.22
Father we do wanna surrender.
00:04:16.25\00:04:18.62
We want to be all that we can be
00:04:18.65\00:04:20.16
to be an
ambassador for Your kingdom,
00:04:20.19\00:04:23.26
to draw others closer to You.
00:04:23.29\00:04:26.49
So, Father, as we've
just dedicate this time to You
00:04:26.53\00:04:30.97
to help make a
positive difference
00:04:31.00\00:04:32.33
in people's lives.
00:04:32.37\00:04:34.14
Once again, I still
say empty me of me, Lord,
00:04:34.17\00:04:38.37
and fill me with You.
00:04:38.41\00:04:40.51
Amen.
00:04:40.54\00:04:42.98
Lord, thank You that
00:04:43.01\00:04:46.55
You created us to do good things
00:04:46.58\00:04:51.59
and not just good
things, but godly things.
00:04:51.62\00:04:56.73
Help us to be faithful to that.
00:04:59.89\00:05:02.30
We are tools in Your hand
00:05:02.33\00:05:05.63
for the salvation
00:05:05.67\00:05:07.00
and the blessing
of our neighbors.
00:05:07.04\00:05:10.31
We can do nothing on our own.
00:05:10.34\00:05:14.68
So I thank You for
promising to use us
00:05:14.71\00:05:18.51
and to work through us.
00:05:18.55\00:05:21.55
Lord, I pray that
You will bless our work
00:05:21.58\00:05:24.85
for Your glory
00:05:24.89\00:05:26.69
in Jesus' name.
00:05:26.72\00:05:28.06
You know, we have a
couple of more prayer requests
00:05:30.79\00:05:34.63
that I'd like to read here, Tim.
00:05:34.66\00:05:37.33
What people may not know is that
00:05:37.37\00:05:39.63
we get requests
from around this earth.
00:05:39.67\00:05:42.27
They come into 3ABN daily,
it's a worldwide ministry.
00:05:42.30\00:05:46.44
And what I have
found over the years that
00:05:46.47\00:05:49.81
maybe I think that
I've got a leg ache.
00:05:49.84\00:05:52.51
Well, you know, there's people
in China that have leg aches,
00:05:52.55\00:05:56.12
there's people in South
Africa that have leg aches.
00:05:56.15\00:06:00.42
There're some things that
we just, as a family of God
00:06:00.46\00:06:04.49
share a lot of the same aches.
00:06:04.53\00:06:06.09
And so, as the
prayers come into us,
00:06:06.13\00:06:09.63
we can identify
00:06:09.66\00:06:11.40
and we just lift them
up to our Lord, Jesus.
00:06:11.43\00:06:14.14
But let me go
through some of them,
00:06:14.17\00:06:15.50
some of these
will break your heart.
00:06:15.54\00:06:17.77
Healing for the virus,
for healing and salvation.
00:06:17.81\00:06:21.68
I can just
imagine who wrote this.
00:06:21.71\00:06:23.78
You could just see the
tears running down their cheeks.
00:06:23.81\00:06:26.55
Lord, bless us
00:06:26.58\00:06:27.92
during this
healing of this virus,
00:06:27.95\00:06:29.72
we don't know whether or not
00:06:29.75\00:06:31.09
we're gonna get
through this or not.
00:06:31.12\00:06:32.62
We don't know
of our past 14 days
00:06:32.65\00:06:34.86
of our before 14 days,
00:06:34.89\00:06:37.56
Father just help,
00:06:37.59\00:06:39.29
pray for harassing spirits
00:06:39.33\00:06:42.03
to be bound in my home and work.
00:06:42.06\00:06:44.70
Also, Lord,
00:06:44.73\00:06:46.07
please be with my
finances to be debt free.
00:06:46.10\00:06:48.87
Pray for those
with an eating disorder
00:06:48.90\00:06:51.44
and the negative impact,
00:06:51.47\00:06:52.81
physically, emotionally,
mentally, and spiritually.
00:06:52.84\00:06:55.71
I talked to a lady earlier today
00:06:55.74\00:06:57.98
and she had found out
00:06:58.01\00:06:59.35
that she had been
diagnosed all these years
00:06:59.38\00:07:01.58
with this particular disease
00:07:01.62\00:07:02.98
that she could
not identify with.
00:07:03.02\00:07:05.22
And she got this new diagnosis
00:07:05.25\00:07:07.72
and it made so much sense to her
00:07:07.76\00:07:09.92
because she could
identify with that.
00:07:09.96\00:07:12.19
But part of it was
getting on a better diet.
00:07:12.23\00:07:14.66
So this is very
important to certain people,
00:07:14.70\00:07:17.27
having an eating disorder.
00:07:17.30\00:07:19.57
Pray for runaway
and kidnapped children,
00:07:19.60\00:07:22.30
pray for their parents,
pray for premature babies
00:07:22.34\00:07:25.51
for their lungs to develop,
00:07:25.54\00:07:26.88
to gain weight and
protection from infection.
00:07:26.91\00:07:30.15
Pray to get out of debt.
00:07:30.18\00:07:33.05
Pray for my husband.
00:07:33.08\00:07:35.18
Pray for those
recovering from COVID.
00:07:35.22\00:07:37.09
Pray for those in the hospital.
00:07:37.12\00:07:40.56
I'm gonna read one
more, then we'll pray.
00:07:40.59\00:07:43.63
Pray for this couple
that's getting married.
00:07:43.66\00:07:46.19
Purity in their lives
00:07:46.23\00:07:47.56
that Christ would break
the chains of addiction.
00:07:47.60\00:07:50.77
As you can see here,
we're going from A to Z.
00:07:50.80\00:07:55.17
We're not concentrating
on one particular thing,
00:07:55.20\00:07:58.77
but like we said
before, God is a big God.
00:07:58.81\00:08:02.08
And He has ears to
hear. And He cares for us all.
00:08:02.11\00:08:05.51
Let's do pray.
00:08:05.55\00:08:07.48
Father, we come
to You once again,
00:08:07.52\00:08:09.88
our hearts filled with joy
00:08:09.92\00:08:11.25
because we have
a direction to go.
00:08:11.29\00:08:13.25
We have someone
00:08:13.29\00:08:14.62
that we can actually
lift our petitions to,
00:08:14.66\00:08:18.09
and we just plead,
Lord, please help us.
00:08:18.13\00:08:21.76
Whatever the situation
may be, whether it's a baby,
00:08:21.80\00:08:25.33
whether it's an elderly person
someplace in between, Lord,
00:08:25.37\00:08:29.00
we're all
fighting different battles.
00:08:29.04\00:08:30.57
We all have a different journey.
00:08:30.61\00:08:33.27
But, Father,
you're the one and only.
00:08:33.31\00:08:35.58
And so, Father,
00:08:35.61\00:08:36.95
we just lift each one of
these requests up to you.
00:08:36.98\00:08:40.88
And, Father, we don't have
to have a whole lot of words.
00:08:40.92\00:08:44.49
We can just
merely raise our hand
00:08:44.52\00:08:46.35
and say Jesus, help.
00:08:46.39\00:08:48.66
And, Father, we know that
that catches your attention
00:08:48.69\00:08:51.63
and I choose to believe, Lord,
00:08:51.66\00:08:53.26
that if it takes one angel
to take care of that problem,
00:08:53.29\00:08:55.86
thank you, Jesus.
00:08:55.90\00:08:57.23
If it takes 10,000
angels to fix that problem,
00:08:57.27\00:09:00.64
thank you, Jesus.
00:09:00.67\00:09:02.20
All I know, Lord, is
we just give it to You.
00:09:02.24\00:09:06.57
Thank you, God. Thank You, God.
00:09:06.61\00:09:08.08
What a privilege
to carry everything
00:09:08.11\00:09:10.68
to God in prayer,
00:09:10.71\00:09:13.68
God stir our hearts.
00:09:13.72\00:09:16.92
Fill us with
compassion for our neighbor.
00:09:16.95\00:09:20.56
Fill us with
compassion for the one who
00:09:24.03\00:09:27.40
we see the
stranger out on the road
00:09:27.43\00:09:29.26
that we have no clue
what they're going through,
00:09:29.30\00:09:32.70
but fill us with compassion.
00:09:32.73\00:09:35.74
Lord, help us to
be more like You.
00:09:35.77\00:09:39.04
Father, as people there
are teachers in schools now,
00:09:39.07\00:09:45.35
and even in the secular schools,
00:09:45.38\00:09:49.28
Lord, I ask that
You will guide them.
00:09:49.32\00:09:51.32
And, Lord, some way I ask that
00:09:51.35\00:09:55.86
the ways that it
could be in a way
00:09:55.89\00:09:59.16
that we wouldn't
even imagine You could use
00:09:59.19\00:10:02.06
to show people that
students and teachers
00:10:02.10\00:10:06.63
in the secular schools
00:10:06.67\00:10:09.30
that you are God.
00:10:09.34\00:10:13.48
Lord, I pray that
00:10:13.51\00:10:14.84
You would give our
children protection,
00:10:14.88\00:10:19.65
Lord, in their education.
00:10:19.68\00:10:23.18
Oh, God, help us
to raise children
00:10:23.22\00:10:27.42
in fear and in
knowledge of You, Lord,
00:10:27.46\00:10:31.49
Lord, help us.
00:10:31.53\00:10:32.86
God, help us.
00:10:32.89\00:10:34.86
And Father says here,
00:10:34.90\00:10:36.46
you know, they've
got a Bible study group
00:10:36.50\00:10:38.37
that's going on
00:10:38.40\00:10:39.73
and that the Lord would open up
00:10:39.77\00:10:41.10
the hearts and the
minds of the people
00:10:41.14\00:10:42.47
that are attending.
00:10:42.50\00:10:43.87
Salvation for
friends and family.
00:10:43.91\00:10:45.71
Pray for the mental
health of a young niece
00:10:45.74\00:10:48.48
who is suicidal and
not coping well in school.
00:10:48.51\00:10:52.01
Pray against cancer once again.
00:10:52.05\00:10:54.38
Pray that my
mom's pain will stop,
00:10:54.42\00:10:57.99
and pray for a South African man
00:10:58.02\00:11:00.59
who had a terrible
motorcycle accident.
00:11:00.62\00:11:03.22
And he's totally paralyzed.
00:11:03.26\00:11:05.63
Boy, life is fragile.
00:11:05.66\00:11:08.03
Life is so fragile.
00:11:08.06\00:11:09.96
Pray for wisdom on the job.
00:11:10.00\00:11:12.57
Cancer has returned.
00:11:12.60\00:11:14.44
Please pray.
00:11:14.47\00:11:16.04
Friend is an alcoholic
00:11:16.07\00:11:17.41
and is recently been
diagnosed with pancreatic cancer
00:11:17.44\00:11:20.61
and the cancer is possibly
throughout her entire body.
00:11:20.64\00:11:25.68
Once again,
00:11:25.71\00:11:27.28
each one of us knows
00:11:27.32\00:11:29.85
these people that are requesting
00:11:29.88\00:11:31.75
this particular problem.
00:11:31.79\00:11:34.26
We all have friends.
We all have neighbors.
00:11:34.29\00:11:37.33
We all know someone
that's fighting a battle.
00:11:37.36\00:11:41.73
We all know the great physician,
00:11:41.76\00:11:44.10
the healer,
00:11:44.13\00:11:45.57
the one that
cares, the one that loves.
00:11:45.60\00:11:49.50
Let's do have one
more prayer on my side.
00:11:49.54\00:11:53.04
Father, once again,
00:11:53.07\00:11:54.68
what more can
You say then, Lord.
00:11:54.71\00:11:56.78
Thank You.
00:11:56.81\00:11:58.15
Thank You, Lord,
that You have ears to hear
00:11:58.18\00:12:01.22
that You care
for each one of us.
00:12:01.25\00:12:02.82
Lord. You know our DNA.
00:12:02.85\00:12:04.52
You created us, Lord.
00:12:04.55\00:12:06.86
So, Father, I just ask that
00:12:06.89\00:12:08.96
as each one of
these that we've read
00:12:08.99\00:12:10.83
all those that
00:12:10.86\00:12:12.19
everyone is stepping
up in prayer right now
00:12:12.23\00:12:16.50
that You will
handle each one with care.
00:12:16.53\00:12:19.83
As mentioned while
ago, Lord, we're so fragile.
00:12:19.87\00:12:23.24
We need You. We love You.
00:12:23.27\00:12:25.71
We ask this in
the name of Jesus.
00:12:25.74\00:12:27.61
Amen. Amen.
00:12:27.64\00:12:29.84
Thank you, Lord Jesus.
00:12:29.88\00:12:31.78
Thank you, JD.
00:12:31.81\00:12:33.28
One of my favorite promises
00:12:33.31\00:12:37.09
is found in Psalm 103:2-5.
00:12:37.12\00:12:40.29
It says,
00:12:40.32\00:12:41.66
"Bless the Lord, O my soul,
00:12:41.69\00:12:43.76
and forget not all His benefits:
00:12:43.79\00:12:46.43
Who forgives
all your iniquities,
00:12:46.46\00:12:48.40
Who heals all your diseases,
00:12:48.43\00:12:51.30
Who redeems your
life from destruction,
00:12:51.33\00:12:54.87
Who crowns you
with lovingkindness
00:12:54.90\00:12:57.31
and tender mercies,
00:12:57.34\00:12:59.07
Who satisfies your
mouth with good things,
00:12:59.11\00:13:02.08
So that your youth is
renewed like the eagle's."
00:13:02.11\00:13:06.61
Wow!
00:13:06.65\00:13:07.98
Thank You, Lord,
for Your benefits.
00:13:08.02\00:13:11.92
Pray that You
will help our viewers
00:13:11.95\00:13:13.69
to surrender all to You.
00:13:13.72\00:13:17.79
All to Thee my blessed Savior
00:13:17.83\00:13:24.53
Lord, I surrender all
00:13:24.57\00:13:30.11
Surrender all to Him.
00:13:34.08\00:13:35.41
There's no greater path,
00:13:35.44\00:13:37.68
no greater way to
live than in full surrender
00:13:37.71\00:13:39.78
to Jesus Christ
and the Holy Spirit.
00:13:39.81\00:13:42.42
Come back tomorrow
00:13:42.45\00:13:43.79
for the last day
of 10 Days of Prayer.
