Father, I ask you to bless whoever is reading this right now.

I am asking you to minister to their spirit at this very moment. Where there is pain, give them Your peace and mercy. Where there is self-doubting, release a renewed confidence in Your ability to work through them. Where there is tiredness, or exhaustion, I ask You to give them understanding, patience and strength as they learn submission to Your leading. Where there is spiritual stagnation, I ask You to renew them by revealing Your nearness, and by drawing them into greater intimacy with You. Where there is fear, reveal Your love and release to them Your courage. Where there is a sin blocking them, reveal it, break its hold over their life. Bless their finances, give them greater vision, and raise up leaders, and friends to support and encourage them. Give each of them discernment to recognize evil forces around them, & reveal to them the power they have in You to defeat it. I ask You to do these things in Jesus' name. Amen
