Father, we agree together for your people in India. We ask that you would keep your hedge of protection around them. We ask that you would give them favor with God and man and lead them in the way that they should go in every decision that they face, big and small. Open doors for them into those places of darkness, so that they can shine the love and kindness of Christ into the lives of the hurting and the lost and every soul that is without Hope. Walk with them Father. Encourage their hearts, give them direction, show them where to step and what to avoid, be their strength and their safety. Make them able to accomplish all that you have put into their heart, help them to rescue the children, all of those who are held captive, to teach them about you, to help them to know that they are loved and precious and never forgotten. In the name of Jesus.

Give them peace Father, keep the climate calm so that the door will remain open as long as possible. Help them to reflect your character at all times. Fill them with wisdom and discernment and self-control and the power to forgive and to love their enemies... those who have committed such evil acts against them and against the innocent. Flood every area of the lives of evil men, and transform their heart... bring change, help them to see the hurt that they have caused and let a passion and a zeal rise up in their heart to right the wrongs that they have committed. Help them to know your forgiveness and your cleansing. Help them to understand that there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. And thru your kindness demonstrated by your people, shining thru them in every way... lead the sinner to repentance, for your glory Lord. Let your people rejoice with them at the freedom that they have found. Let them weep with them over their past sins, and let them help them to know the beauty that you can bring from any ashes... let them testify to the beauty that you have brought from the ashes of their own lives. And let a power go forth from the blood of the Lamb and the power of their testimony. In the name of Jesus.

There is so much violence, so much darkness. It can seem hopeless sometimes, we can feel very small. Encourage and empower your people to persevere, to never lose their focus, to keep their eyes fixed upon the prize that you have promised in your word.... that some day soon we will see him, that this cursed world will have an end, that their loved ones and so very many souls will join us in that place of victory, and nothing will ever hurt or harm in your holy mountain ever again. Someday Lord. But today is the day of battle. Today we must fight.... against the darkness, against our own sin and self, in heavenly places, on our knees praying and believing you for all things. Help us. You have ensured the victory, help us to believe and to go and take the land in India and around the world. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father, we pray for your people in India today and around the world. Those who are seeking to save the lost, heal the sick, befriend the outcast, minister to the needs of the poor... walk with them today... put an even greater anointing upon them... give them the wisdom and the strength and the mercy to walk in it. Empower your people today. Give them revelation and understanding in things that have troubled their thoughts and their heart. Things that they have not been able to get their mind around, that they have been asking you about, that have been a weight to them... bring understanding and set them free Father. Show them the Truth of the matter, your Truth, and give them the ability to receive it and to be glad in it. In the name of Jesus.

Father provide all the needs of the Christian schools in India, and in the academic schools that are run by Christians. Open the doors for them to teach and to love those children freely and completely in Christ. Use the teachers and laborers in those places to help to bring the families of those children closer to one another and closer to you Lord. Put your hedge of protection around them. Provide a bubble around them that will create a safe zone for them to ask you anything, for them to ask anything about you, for them to confess their sin, and to change. Help the children to know freedom in the name of Jesus. Let them know that it cost much, but that it is given freely to them. Let them glimpse the measure of your love for them, specifically them... as well as for every soul created upon the earth. Teach them to love as you love. To forgive the evils committed against them and their families. Bring healing and change thru the children Father, and let it be a blessing to their families, their nation, and the world. In the name of Jesus.

Once again, we ask that you provide transportation for your people. Health, shoes, bikes, places of refreshing and resource and repair, motorcycles, cars, trucks, construction vehicles when needed, fuel... every thing they need to move the Gospel through out all of India and the world. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Loving Father,

yes Father, we agree together for your people in India and for every soul in that nation that does not know you as Lord and Savior and Friend. Send provision, food and water, teaching and ministry supplies, all that is needed to minister to the physical and spiritual needs of the people. Empower your servants, give them wisdom and discernment that will allow them to better convey the Gospel to every soul they encounter... not just as ministry work... but with an invested sentiment of true friendship and concern and love in Christ, like family. Not just India, but her neighbors as well, and the world as they are all connected person to person, one by one. It is draining to be emotionally invested Father. Help them to be genuine and authentic. Help them to know their boundaries as in any relationship, so that they do not become overwhelmed. Keep them from growing weary in doing good. Help them to persevere with great joy. In the name of Jesus.

Bless your people in India who are having times of celebration in their lives. If it is a wedding or a birthday or a baptism or graduation or job or any thing that has brought them great blessing by your hand... send them friends and family and co-workers that will celebrate their joy with them. No matter what difficulties or darkness may surround them or be pressing in, allow someone to acknowledge their accomplishment or their time of celebration. Raise up Godly voices to affirm your people Father, young and old, children and adults. Most of all, in some way, let them know that they have pleased you, that you see their commitment to you. Let them know that you celebrate their accomplishments and victory. Guide them to use that accomplishment and gifting to serve you, multiply the blessing in their lives as they do. Let all that is good and from your hand overflow in their lives, and let them feel the embrace of your presence this day and always. In the name of Jesus.

Comfort those that are separated from their loved ones. Help them to know that you are with them and you are with their loved ones. You are watching over them, you see all, you are working on their behalf, and their is no one that can snatch them from your hand. Help them with the sadness they must be feeling, bring peace to any who are tormented by such separation. It is difficult to imagine how that is even possible, but you are able to reach into those deep places of the heart. You are able to speak peace and make it so. Comfort those in India and around the world who are separated from their loved ones. Allow them to visit or to return if possible. Otherwise, help them to keep their focus on that reunion with them in your presence some day Father. This world with all it's tragedy and consequence of sin... will end one day and it will all have been a blink in time. But for now, the pain is real. Please comfort our brothers and sisters who are in such circumstance, whose hearts are breaking. Protect them from the enemy and from the torment he tries to bring to their mind. Good things Father. Help them to think on good things, on your word, on your promises. In Faith. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/11/2008 1:12:28 PM)

Father, we love you so much. We thank you for always listening to our prayers and the deep things in our heart. We thank you that you are so active in our lives that before we can even ask for help, you are already there handing a million things to us... things that you have prepared before we even realized we needed them. It was merely the asking, the letting you know that we are ready to receive them. It's just your way, you are persistent and faithful, but you are gentle and kind and respectful of our feelings and the free-will that you have granted us. You are always concerned and quick to discipline in love... but you are never pushy or rude or demanding. Thank you for loving us like that. Thank you for being you. We are so completely in love with every morsel of who you are.

We approach you today and ask that you would move in the lives of your people in India today. You see their struggles, their heartaches, the challenges that lie before them. We ask that you would pour provision and abundance into India, so that they can share the Gospel more effectively and to every soul in that nation and the world. Protect the innocent, Let Justice prevail, Let Truth be Known, and let your Love and Mercy be a reality to all who will call upon the name of Jesus Christ. In the name of your son we ask you Father. Shake India to it's core, so that every good thing that you have planned for her will rise up, and every plan of the enemy will be broken and brought low. You are great and glorious and we praise you. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/14/2008 8:24:10 AM)

Father, we pray for India today. We pray that those who are in darkness will see that Great Light of the Gospel so that they may know the love of God and Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We pray for your people in India that know you as their God, those who have carried such a burden for their nation for so long, who have labored to share the Good News that God is with them and has come to guide them into all that is good and right. Be among the people of India today Father, walk with them and confirm to their hearts all that you have spoken. You have called them, your Spirit has drawn them, reveal yourself to them and use them to do great things for the Kingdom of God. In the name of Jesus.

Father we pray for provision for another day, another week. Food for the hungry, clean water, supplies for the schools and the churches, every thing necessary to meet the physical and spiritual needs of India and the world. We pray for computers and access to computers to help with training in education and ministry. We pray for instruments so that they may praise you and so that they may spread the Gospel thru spiritual hymns and psalms. We pray for medical supplies to bandage wounds, to provide aid for the handicap and those recovering from illness or injury. We pray for healing, for miracles, instantly or thru medicine. We submit to your perfect will Father. Let it be so in all the earth. In the name of Jesus.

We pray for all the pastors serving in India and in missions around the world. Those that have invested for long term service, who labor day to day in faithfulness, who persevere thru every challenge, who remain humble in every miracle and accomplishment. Bless them today Father, Bring refreshing to every area of their lives and to their physical body mind and soul. Give them fresh revelation and vision, send laborers and diligent servants into their midst, provide for every need in their personal lives and in ministry. Protect them from all evil. Send your angels to camp around them and around all that you have given them authority over. Keep them from temptation, call them into accountability to God and Man so that their way remains pure and holy before you. Cause them to be blessed beyond their expectations, and let them be a blessing to every soul touched by their ministry in your name. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/21/2008 12:00:23 PM)

Father, thank you for your love, thank you that we are never alone, or abandoned, or without hope. We pray for your people in India, remind them of that Truth, let them feel your presence so very close to them right now in this moment and day to day. Encourage their hearts in the big and in the small things that surround and touch their lives. Speak to them thru the beauty of nature all around them, in a sunrise, in a sunset, in the coolness or in the warmth, with a refreshing rain, with the sounds of the creatures you have created.... let your praise and your beauty and your presence in the world be proclaimed all around them and let their heart be moved and strengthened and refreshed in the most simple voices. Open doors and guide them to share that message and assurance with those around them in India and throughout the world. In the name of Jesus.

Your people need a refreshing, they need the wind of your Spirit to blow fresh air into their corner of the world, they need a cleansing breath that will bring vigor and zeal and focus... send it Father, in the name of Jesus. Come to the people of India HOLY SPIRIT, fill them, empower them, intercede thru them, let the will of God be fulfilled in every area of their lives. Let them be blessed and use them to be a blessing that will demonstrate the love of God in the earth. We no longer want to simply talk about it and dream about it... we want to see it and touch it and share it and demonstrate it with our own hands and feet and voices. Show us how. Reveal your plan to India, lead them into worship of you, into spiritual battle against all that opposes you or tries to hinder your will. Empower them and make their face like flint... to the death if necessary, knowing that death only leads to eternal life for those who believe in you. Not to be careless and to waste what is most precious to you Father, but to be unafraid to sacrifice all, to go where you send them, to perform the perfect will of God no matter the cost. Do this in India we pray. Do this in America. Do this in the world Father. It is time to be zealous for God... gentle as doves... wise as serpents... but BOLD as the LION. Shepherds all, but warriors according to Eph 6. In the name of Jesus. We praise you Father God. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/22/2008 10:03:02 AM)

Father, thank you for all that you are doing in India. We know that you hear our prayers, that you intervene before we can even ask, that despite the appearance of things you are there and your goodness prevails over every evil in that land and in the world. Anoint your people in that region with strength and joy and faith. Send voices of encouragement and affirmation and wisdom. Fill them with every good thing and let it overflow into the lives of every person they encounter. Open the hearts of the lost and the hurting, help them to receive the Good News of Jesus Christ, Savior, Lord, and Friend. In the name of Jesus.

Father, put a hedge of protection around your people in India and all who are on the mission field. Send your angels to camp around them. Lead them in where they should go and where they should not go. Keep them from arrogance, but fill them with boldness. Let them be wise and cunning and clear in their focus... but let them be gentle and kind and full of mercy. Guide your people. Keep them in places of favor with God and Man, but let them compromise nothing according to your Truth. Make a way for them to walk thru any and all darkness. Make them able. If they must face the fire, let them not be burned, let them not even smell of smoke. In the name of Jesus.

Pour provision into India Father. Put it into the hands of the faithful. Not all who are called by your name are faithful stewards. Put supplies and favor and influence into the hands of those who will truly seek to do your will, who truly minister/labor to help the hurting and the poor on your behalf. Cause the courts and officials to rule in their favor, cause them to be freed from prisons, move them into opportunities to receive medical care, put them at the top of the list and into positions where they can find work and earn a good wage to care for their families and the family of God. Provide homes for the homeless and the outcast, acceptance for the lonely and rejected, lead the orphan and the widow to homes and families that will love them and who will graft them into their hearts. Knit your people together Father. Enable and lead them in how to invite others into fellowship and relationship that is real and Godly. In the name of Jesus. Amen. Thank you Father. We love you so much <3



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/23/2008 8:35:27 AM)

Father, we pray for your people in India today. Let them feel your presence close to them, allow them to glimpse your hand at work in every area of their lives. Throughout this day, bring their mind back to the reality of your involvement in every joy and every challenge and every mundane moment. Remind them that you are with them, that they are not alone, that you see their heart and their need and their perseverance... and affirm them so that they know that you are pleased with them. Encourage them and remind them that their reward is great. Help them to understand the brevity of this world and this life, the urgency of the commission, and the approaching fulfillment of all things. The evil we face will not continue forever, it will have an end. We must be full of courage, trusting in you thru all things and for all things. Fill your people with courage, bring refreshing and a resolute mindset, in India and around the world. In the name of Jesus.

What promises can any other god make, or what can men do for us but disappoint or deceive us. Our confidence is not in a man or a woman. Our confidence is in the Almighty God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Protect your people Father. Let them not be deceived. Let them not be led astray or to be tempted to compromise your Truth. Keep their hearts pure, discipline them if necessary, always in love because that is your way. But with a sternness that will keep them from turning to the left or to the right. Order their steps Father. Guide them in the way they should go, and fill them with wisdom and discernment. Fill them with mercy to forgive others and to forgive themselves as they struggle to always move forward. If only we were perfect, but we are not. It is our heart. Help us to be perfect as you are perfect, cleansing our hearts and our minds and our lives daily, so that we conform more and more into the image of Christ. We need you so desperately Father. You are our salvation in so many ways. Thank you for loving us and never giving up on us. In the name of Jesus.

Walk with the orphan in India, with the widow, with the rejected and the outcast and the hurting. Feed the hungry and lead the thirsty to clean water to refresh them physically and spiritually. Open the doors for the Gospel to be preached. Close every door that the enemy tries to use to attack or to hinder or to confuse. Speak to your people in India. Reveal yourself to them with a greater revelation, and help them to communicate effectively with every person they encounter in life... so that their homeland and the world will know of your Love. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



Itlyn1kc -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/23/2008 11:37:33 PM)

I continue to lift up those in India that they want to know about you Lord, that they open their
hearts up to you Lord and that they are softened, I pray that you draw them close to you Lord..

amen
kc



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/24/2008 8:52:56 AM)

Father, we agree together for your people in India. Look upon the families in that nation, those separated by conflict and poverty and enslavement. We ask that you would work things out so that they can be together again, so that they can live out every wonderful thing that you have planned for them. We ask that anyone held captive in prison or as a slave would be set free. Move upon the hearts and legistics of their captors and make a way for the innocent and the repentant to be set free. For those that have found themselves prisoners, move upon their heart to know you Lord, to know the freedom that comes only thru Christ. Wrap your arms around them and speak gently to them as only you can. Send voices of encouragement and hope to them, to tell them about your love and that they are not alone or forgotten or abandoned. In the name of Jesus.

We ask for grace upon those who are in India, who are trapped and addicted to evil in whatever form. We ask that you would bombard their lives in every way with your love and your discipline, so that they would turn from all evil. If they are tormenting the people of God or the innocent, if they are victimizing others for selfish gain, if they are violent and cruel... Father break that thing off of them. Change their heart, renew their mind, and cause them to be full of sorrow and to repent over the harm and the misery that they have caused others. Let them know transformation thru the blood and sacrifice and work of Christ. Let them know forgiveness and cleansing. Guide them in how to begin the process of change. Send voices that will help them to be a new creature, just like you sent people to Saul as you transformed him into Paul. Do it again today. Do it for those in India and around the world that have seen the evil of their past selves. Help them to bless others a hundred times over.... more than the many they have hurt. Lead them thru the process of retribution and freedom and joy and mercy. In the name of Jesus.

Heal the victims Father. Beauty for ashes. We are only able to forgive if you help us. Help us to forgive our enemies and those who so spitefully use us. We need only to agree to your will and to look to you with an obedient heart, and you will make us able to do all. You can make us able to genuinely forgive... with all wisdom and justice and mercy. With man such things are impossible. But with God, all things are possible thru Christ who strengthens us. Pour out such grace and mercy in relationships in India and around the world. Help us Father. In the name of your son, Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/25/2008 11:20:48 AM)

Father, we love you and we praise you. Thank you for all that you are doing in our lives, in India, and around the world among your Church. The Gospel is being preached, right now as we speak, and the Kingdom of God is advancing into places we never thought possible. Your word and your will is being performed and we thank you for letting us be a part of it all, for letting us be on your team, for letting us play in the game instead of sitting us on the bench. India shines because you are there and your people are there, let your Light continue to shine through your people around the world so that the Lost may be found, so that they may find you and know you as Savior and Lord. In the name of Jesus.

Father put your hedge of protection around every believer in that region and around the world. Every person that has found their heart stirring at hearing the Good News, that God is with them, that Jesus Christ has come to seek and to save the Lost. Increase the opportunity for divine encounters, guide your people to stand in those places, guide the lost to be waiting with open hearts and open minds to hear it and to receive it. Send your angels to camp around them and their families, so that your Holy Fire can ignite hearts that were once trapped in darkness. Guard those divine appointments. Remove all fear from their hearts, help them to step out with wisdom and courage to take your hand and the hand of your Church, let your people prove to be as faithful and loving as you Lord. Souls. New Creatures. Freedom. Married to Christ. Let it be so. Let every hungry soul in India be fed physically and spiritually, every soul around the world. In the name of Jesus.

Provision Lord. Meet every need. Move upon the hearts and minds of your people to trust you, to be full of faith, to know. Hear their prayers Father and answer in great and powerful ways that will bring you the greatest glory. We are a blessed people. We serve a Mighty and Loving God. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/28/2008 12:00:53 PM)

Father we pray for your people in India. Let them know that you are with them, comfort their hearts, guide them in all that you would have them to do in that nation and in that region. Protect them from the enemy, keep them in the center of your perfect will, because we know that that is the safest place for those who call you Lord. Give them the words to speak the Good News to the people of that nation, give them the words to speak peace to those who have suffered from the recent bombings in India. There is so much darkness and suffering and loss, help them to encourage those that are hurting. Help them to lead them to you so that those that have been so devastated can know the healer, the comforter, the one who fights for them, the one who will lead them thru this difficult time to better days, the one who loves them and who is constantly working all things out for their good. No matter the evil that attacks, no matter the depth of it's temptation, no matter the violence of it's hatred... the peace and power and love of Jesus Christ will prevail. Open hearts to receive that Truth Father. Let them know the Almighty God in new and perfect ways. In the name of Jesus.

Watch over the children in India that are directly affected by these bombings, as well as those who have suffered so much from poverty and the depravity of men that has enslaved them and abused them. Make a way of escape for them. Send your people to love them and to give them a home and a family. They are not forgotten, they are not unimportant... you see them, you love them dearly, and you are working things out for their good. Speak to the children of India, speak thru them, give them your voice, a voice of Truth and wisdom and love. Raise them up now in their youth as beacons of Light and all that is Good. Fill them with hope and with faith in Jesus Christ. Pour your anointing upon them, so that everything they say and do will reflect you Lord. Bless them and keep them and let them know peace and joy and assurance of their salvation that comes only from you. In the name of Jesus. Amen



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/29/2008 10:48:36 AM)

Father, we pray for your people in India. Be with them during this time of such tragedy in their nation. Let your presence be felt and known in the lives of those who lost loved ones int he recent attacks. Comfort them Father. Send your people to be voices in their lives to help them thru this difficult time. Give them the words to speak, the wisdom when to be silent, the provision to help meet the needs of those who have been wounded or deeply affected by all that has happened. In the name of Jesus.

Father, be with all of India today. Shine your light into every corner of darkness. Let the people of that nation taste and see that the Lord Jesus Christ is good, and that he cares for them. Provide all things necessary to carry the good news to every soul in that region, food, water, school supplies, transportation, Bibles in every language and dialect, clothing, schools, homes, physical and spiritual refreshing... all things that will reveal the love of God for them to them. Let them know you Jesus. Let them have divine encounters and dreams and let them know that you see them, that they are not forgotten or rejected or alone. Let them know that you have wonderful and beautiful plans for their lives that will be fulfilled if they would only trust in you and call upon you as Lord and Savior. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you for your love and your mercy Father. Thank you that you are always listening and answering every time we call upon you, even before we cry out. You work all things for the good of those that love you and who call upon your name. You welcome any and all who desire to be in fellowship with you, as family, as your people. You are great and wonderful Lord. We love you so very much! Amen



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/30/2008 1:09:45 PM)

Father, we pray for your people in India today. Help them to know that you are with them. No matter what fears they may be facing, no matter what difficulty, help them to be encouraged and full of faith. Remind them of your Word, of your promises, of the plans that you have confirmed to their heart in times past. Renew their faith and their hope. Bring refreshing to their body, mind, and spirit. Surround them with voices that will speak strength and joy to their hearts, assurance that you are very near and very active in the situation. If it is a matter of timing and they are needing to be patient, then pour a generous gift of patience into their heart, let it pour forth and bring peace to every area of their lives. Use them to encourage and strengthen those around them as well. In the name of Jesus.

Put your hedge of protection around your people in India Father. Let no evil prevail against them. Let it not even come near them or their homes or their families or their ministries. Raise up every source and resource to keep them in the center of your perfect will, in that place where they are able to bear much fruit in your name, where they can serve and gather in a harvest that has never been seen in India or in the world. Let the fire of revival spread thru out that region and around the world. Shine your light in to the hearts of men and women and children, communities and families, nations and governments. Let the name of Jesus be praised in the darkest corners of the earth, we are hungry for more of you Lord. Let that desire become passion in the hearts of your people in all the earth. We cry out for you to come, to rule and reign in all the earth, to fulfill every promise and prophecy in your word according to your wisdom and your love. We miss you, we desire you, our hearts ache to see you and touch you and know you. Come Lord Jesus. We ask you to send him Father, in his holy name, by the authority given to us thru his shed blood. India cries out, the world cries out, your church cries out. Would you visit us Lord. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (7/31/2008 10:08:15 AM)

Father, thank you for all that you are doing in India. We pray for provision for another day, another week, another month. As July comes to a close and August arrives, send a cool wind of refreshing physically and spiritually. Send clouds and shade to keep the heat from being over whelming. Open the doors for water and supplies and food to reach those that are hungry and thirsty and in need of basic necessity. Revamp all modes of transportation, and cause them to be more efficient, repair anything that has worn down or broken, replace what needs replacing, clear the way, clear the roads, blaze a path to every door and every heart in India and that region... blaze a path around the world. Make a way for your people to carry the Gospel and ministry to every soul that cried out for Truth, for Mercy, for a Savior. Let the lost know you Lord. Let your people be your hands and your feet and your voice and your heart. Cause them to reflect you as only your Spirit can do. We need you Father to fulfill the commission that you have entrusted to us. Come Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus.

Father reveal the lies of every false religion that keeps people bound and enslaved in India and around the world. For every heart that sincerely seeks the Almighty God, the one True God, allow them to see what is not of you. Allow them to discern rightly and empower them to turn from every doctrine of devils. Make a way of escape for those who are threatened and enslaved to such religion by people who bully and threaten and manipulate them. You see where they stand this very moment, and you see the way that you have prepared to lead them out of that darkness. Father, we join our heart and our prayer with theirs and we ask that you lead them out. If they are not strong enough, then send someone. If they lack courage, then be their strength though they do not even know you yet. If they lack knowledge of what is truth and how to know you, then send someone to tell them and show them and walk with them. Break every stronghold of darkness in that nation. Set the captives free around the world that desire to worship and serve you as their Lord and Savior. Let them call upon the name of Jesus Christ... because we know that you will answer with power and mercy and great love for them. Assure their hearts of this Truth. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (8/1/2008 12:27:08 PM)

Father we pray for our brothers and sisters in India. We ask that you hear the deepest needs of their heart and that you answer them with power and with mercy. You know exactly what they need before they even ask, before they even know themselves... look with favor upon them we pray. Send provision, meet every physical need, and guide them into all Truth to meet every spiritual need. If they are struggling in an area of weakness, bring discipline seasoned with your love and your kindness and your mercy, so that they may be strengthened and may be able to resist any temptation that may be attacking them at this moment. Keep them holy. Keep their hearts pure. Make them able to accomplish all for the glory of God. Protect them from every evil that tries to cause them harm or that tries to cause harm to their families or their ministries. Protect them from themselves, from the lust of the flesh, from the lust of the eyes, from the pride of life. Let them have no other gods before you in any way shape or form, and help them to love others as they love themselves at all times. Do this among your people in India we ask. Do this among your people around the world. We need you Lord. We need your boundaries and your discipline to keep us on the right path, to keep us in your PERFECT will. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you for your love Father, for your faithfulness Jesus, for your constant care Holy Spirit. We are loved and empowered and enabled to do all things thru Christ who strengthens us. No one, nothing, can separate us from the love of God. We have only to choose to receive your love for us, and we will own it for eternity. Owning is understanding what is required to keep all things healthy and thriving and bearing fruit. We have received such love, we own it by the grace of God, we are loved and nothing can change that. Praise the name of the Lord God Almighty, who rules and reigns forever and ever.

Enable us, cause us to prove faithful stewards of such a treasure as the love of God. Help us to tell the world, to share it with every soul that our lives touch. We are a blessed people, precious children, privileged heirs, called/anointed to be laborers, co-laborers with Christ, we are trusted and entrusted with so much. We commit all to you Lord, for the glory of God and for the good of all those whom you love and who you fight for daily to reclaim as children of God. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father we pray for your people in India today. Encourage them to not grow weary in doing good. Send a refreshing, a renewing, so that they have the strength to accomplish all that you have called them to do this day, this week, this month. Give them wisdom and insight in how to meet the needs of the people of that region. Show them what is not working, what is not your will, and help them to prune every area of ministry that is not effective and not what you are wanting Lord. Give them the courage to lead and to make decisions that are necessary no matter how difficult, never in arrogance, never without kindness and much prayer, always with love... but cause them to be bold and to not hesitate in every detail that you have called them to perform. Lead them as leaders and teachers, protect them from being blind guides. Impart wisdom and discernment and mercy to your people in India and around the world. Make them effective ministers as they represent you Lord. Help us to prove faithful and skilled and of a right heart. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father we pray for the Christians in India. We ask that you would multiply the ministry that is taking place in their churches and their fellowships. We ask that you would create specific ministries for men, for women, for children, for the elderly, and so much more. So that each person will be able to be effective to the fullest in sharing the Gospel with others. Especially women's ministry Lord. With it being so difficult in that culture for men to minister to women, there is such a huge need for women's ministry. Someone has brought this to my attention recently. And so we ask that you would anoint women's ministry in new and powerful ways, that you would raise up women to lead it and church leaders to support it. That you would provide the finances and increase the resources, so that women are able to minister to other women more effectively. In the name of Jesus.

Father, mother's are so important. You know that experience when Mary was assigned that role for Christ on the earth. Every child has a mom, every man has a mother, most men have a wife, many brothers have a sister... it is a divine connection. While the asian cultures make it difficult for male and female ministry, women can affect women who in turn affect the men in their lives. Shine your light and your presence on women's ministry we ask. We join our prayers with Gospel For Asia for their women's groups, but we expand it even further to every church in India. Raise up women to lead those groups and men to support them and to give them oversight. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you for your love Lord. Thank you that you see the poor and hurting of that nation and you are actively working on their behalf. Thank you for provision and encouragement and opportunity to know the Almighty God. Thank you that every soul, every person, that you have breathed life into, is being drawn by your Spirit in the name of Jesus. Thank you that we are all given the chance to be your children again, to know you as Daddy and Friend and Lord. We are a blessed and chosen people, unworthy of your attention and your affection.... we are humbled and full of joy and so very very thankful. We are loved with an everlasting and unconditional love. Let the people of India know that love, let them understand that they can be called children of God no matter their state or station, you love all and call to all. Send someone to tell them and to help them to understand that great Truth, that staggering revelation of Grace. Not just India but every soul upon the earth. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Praying a continued prayer in agreement with the others



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (8/7/2008 9:21:58 AM)

Father, we agree together for your people in India. We ask that you would look upon every Christian voice in that nation, in that region of the world, and every nation touched by it... we ask that you would pour your favor out upon them... favor with God and favor with man. They will not be loved by all, they will be hated by some, but you can move upon the hearts of even our enemies to bring them into agreement with the situations at hand. You can tie their hands and cause them to focus their conflict and attacks on one another, rather than on the people of God. We ask for peace in that region, but if there be powers that have the right to stir conflict in India, then let it not come near your people or their dwelling places. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father, look upon the poor and hurting in India today, also in China. Provide healthy food and clean water and every necessity of life... in abundance... and let it be clear to them that it is given in the name of Jesus Christ... let them know you Lord as kind and compassionate, as provider and deliverer. Let them know the same grace and mercy and love that you have shown to each of us, to each of your children around the world. Raise up laborers to go to them, to tell them, to minister to their physical needs and spiritual needs, as individuals, as families, as communities... let them see and recognize Christ in your people... and let us claim them as brothers and sisters, sons and daughters of the one true God. We desire souls. We desire friendships and relationships... to walk with one another and share our hearts and our joys and our stories... to join our voices and our prayers with the people of India and around the world as we praise the name of Jesus Christ, as we give glory to our God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank you Father. You are wonderful and worthy of all praise. What a blessed people we are that we are called by your name and claimed as your children. We forever give you thanks. We love you Lord because you loved us when we were ugly and dead and decaying. You saved us from ourselves, from the sin that we wed ourselves to. You came and died in our place to set us free from that bondage, that debt, that contract with death. You died... YOU...

so that we might live.

And you did it not knowing if we would even choose to live, to be free of selfishness and sin.
You took a risk, you gave all, you put everything on the table and willingly took that chance because you loved us, each of us, every soul, right there in our sin, in our ugliness, you loved us...

Oh how you loved us.
We are loved.
Thank you <3

Yes. This is my prayer, too, in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Father, for the people in India, and throughout the world. May they hear of You. Of Your love. Of Your salvation. May they turn to You Lord. Bless them and help them Lord. May Your will be done in all things. In Jesus name. Amen



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (8/11/2008 11:14:13 AM)

Father, we pray for your people in India. We ask that you would send provision to minister to every need, physical, spiritual, emotional and mental. Not just the supplies, not just food and water, but the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Send your people to tell them of your love, to assure them that you have not forgotten them, to hold them, to walk with them, to encourage them. In the name of Jesus.

Father, thank you that you hear our prayers and that it is your heart even more than ours to minister to the people of India. You see them, you know their hardship and their joy, and you have a plan to bless them and prosper them. We agree with you Father, we claim every blessing that you have planned and prepared for every soul in that nation and every life that is touched by theirs. We say yes and amen to the perfect will of God in India and around the world right now, today, and forever. In the name of Jesus.

Come to India Father, send your Spirit to draw the hearts of men and women and children to the saving Grace of Jesus, our Lord and Savior and Friend. Raise up voices that will speak the Truth, your Truth God, to the heart of that nation, to those hungry and literally starving for Truth. There is an outward hunger, and we pray that you meet that need Father. But there is an inward hunger in this hour of the world and even within the Church... for Truth. Speak Father. Speak Holy Spirit. Come Lord Jesus, and guide us into all Truth according to your wisdom and your mercy. Help us to reflect your heart Lord, to go and be and do... help us to perform the will of the Father that you have called us to labor for. We cannot do it in our own strength. You said for us to call upon you, and so we cry out Lord. We ask you to come and to convict all of India and the world, we intercede on their behalf, we join our voice with theirs, our heart with theirs, and we ask that you would intervene in the lives of men and remove the scales that have covered their eyes, silence the voices that have convinced them of lies, blow away the darkness with a gentle wind so that your great Light may shine into their homes and their communities and their hearts and minds. In the name of Jesus.

The world craves Truth. India cries out for Truth. Come Holy Spirit of Truth. Give us understanding and a hunger for your word, lead us in the way that we should go as your people, as those in search of a savior, the Savior... in the name of Jesus. Thank you precious Lord, Holy Father, Spirit of Boldness... Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (8/12/2008 10:00:38 AM)

Father, we agree together for your people in India. we ask that you would bless them and look upon them with favor. We ask that you would send provision for another day, another week, another month. The hungry and the hurting cry out, guide us to them Father, guide your people in how to reach them with ministry, with love, as friends as brothers and sisters in Christ. They are our family. They cry out for a Savior, they cry out for help. We join our heart and our voices with theirs. Come Lord Jesus. Send your Holy Spirit to bring comfort and light and hope in the darkest places of that nation. In the name of Jesus.

Father. thank you that we are never alone, we are never forsaken. We long for the day when we will see clearly, when we will see the immediate tangible presence of our Savior and Lord visibly standing in our midst with our physical eyes. You have been there and remain always, we know it by faith though we cannot see you right now. We can see the evidence of your presence as so much Goodness is poured out all around us in this dark and broken world. Somehow, miracles continue in India and in our lives around the world... you are the reason. Your presence, your grace and love... you are fighting for us and we are so humbled and thankful and blessed. Thank you Jesus. Thank you Father and Spirit. Have your way in every area of our lives. Work and move in India and around the world among your people, your Church, the lost... compel them to come in... to draw near to you... to know you and to understand your great love for us all. In the name of Jesus. Amen.
