praying for Christians in India



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/16/2008 12:09:45 PM)

Lord, bless the Christians in India today. Once again let them know that you are with them. Whatever the need may be today, we ask that you would supply it in abundance Father. If the children need shoes, or if it is food, or just a pencil to do their schoolwork, whether it's a wife that needs assurance about her husband's safety, or a missionary that needs encouragement or funds from home... let provision be poured out, and let your name be praised Jesus.

We praise you <3

Our bodies can grow tired and stressed as we minister and as we just live day to day to meet the needs that arise. Father I ask that you bring healing and refreshing, that you would sustain their health, and make things not just bearable but full of joy. Clean water and a peaceful working environment. The things that seem so minor or so unimportant, but that set the tone for so much... move in those areas today Lord. Create a place, an attitude, an atmosphere of worship and of healing and of empowering. Thank you Father.

Again we ask for protection. Keep your hedge about your people in India. Guard the missionaries, guard the Christians of India, and open doors for the Gospel to be preached and received. Even the elderly of India Lord, let them not accept any sickness or neglect based on their age. Let them know that you care for them as much as the children, that they are important. Provide for their needs as well, and do not let them be overlooked. Restore the eyesight of anyone that is struggling with their vision. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you so much.
We ask and agree in Faith, because we know that our God is Faithful to hear and to answer.
What a great God we serve. There is no other.
Amen.

Prayer request:
Right now in India the government is debating passing a anti-conversion law that will forbid anyone from preaching the name of Jesus in public. The punishment for breaking this law for citizens will be jail time and forigners will be sent from the country never to be allowed to return. This law was made once before and many missionaries were forced to leave the country, it was recanted a few years later. These laws are still not passed and we still have time to pray for the Lord to move in the hearts of those who are deciding and for His will to be done.
Thank all of you who are praying!
His kingdom come, His will be done.

selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/16/2008 1:18:33 PM)

Father, you see the urgency of the situation. We ask you to intervene in powerful ways. There is so much that we don't understand in all of this, and so much going on behind the scenes, but nothing is hidden from you Lord. You know the exact people that will determine the outcome of all of this. We agree together that you would move upon their hearts to align themselves with your perfect will, whether they know you or not. In the name of Jesus.

Lord, keep the doors open that allow your people to share the Gospel in India. We ask that whatever effort is put forth to close those doors would actually only open them more. That is a sure sign that you are doing something in that region, the enemy wouldn't be fighting so hard unless he is scared. Father, protect your people from fear and intimidation. Let them acknowledge that you are present in their situations and be their confidence. Help them to trust in what they cannot see, for we know that you are victor in all things.

Watch over the children of India Lord. Let any temporary disruption that may be necessary to bring about a greater good -- not diminish their walk with you or their academic studies. Protect our missionaries in the region. Protect the people of India that call themselves by your name and that live for you. Give them wisdom and discernment, boldness seasoned with patience. Help them to love as you love, despite all circumstance. That is not an easy thing, but you can make them able Lord. Please help them.

In the name of Jesus.
Thank you Father. We know that you are in control of all things whether governments or people groups or cultures. Your will prevails over all things. And we praise you that we are blessed to be a part of all that you are doing.
Amen.

Thanks for the update comeuphere <3
What caused them to recant on this ruling last time?



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/17/2008 12:03:19 PM)

Your people in India cry out to you Lord. We agree with their prayers right now, all that they have voiced and all that they have been unable to voice. Hear the petitions of their heart. Intervene in all things that are hindering them from performing your perfect will for their lives and for their nation. Have your way in India Lord. In the name of Jesus, we invite you to come and to change the circumstance, to change hearts and lives, to bring freedom and understanding, to cause the lost and the hurting to know that they are loved. Shine through your people in India Lord. Let them be a light in the darkness that cannot be snuffed out or ignored.

Thank you for bringing this legislation to the forefront, for moving on comeuphere to post a request concerning it. We agree together that all things will align themselves with your perfect will. We trust you with the seen and the unseen. We know that you have a plan and that it will be accomplished for the good of India and for all people that will trust in you.

Help them to do that Father. Help the people of India to trust in you. Help them today to gain a revelation as to who exactly Jesus Christ is and how much he cares for them. Help them to somehow understand that he is not a distant God, nor is he a holy man that did good things long ago, but help them to encounter him as real and ever-present. Stir something in them, give them experiences and spiritual confirmation, that will allow them to see Christ, to smell him, to hear him, to taste of him, to feel him. Remove all doubt from their hearts and their minds. Open the floodgates for revival in India. In the name of Jesus.

Jesus.

... did you feel the darkness tremble at that name. Every time we say it

Jesus... Jesus... Jesus....

... you can hear the darkness scream because it fears that name.

have we forgotten the power of the name of Jesus?...
remind us Lord, the enemy already knows. He has taken it for granted that we have forgotten. But your Spirit has brought it to the remembrance of your people and your church around the world. And we rejoice in the name of our deliverer, our mighty God.

You are here Lord Jesus, you are in India, and all strongholds of the enemy must release their grip in your name, we declare it. Freedom, Protection, Provision, Salvation! In the name of Jesus.
Thank you Father. You have provided all. You have made us able to stand, and to stand strong.
Amen.

10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

19Pray also for me [for the Christians in India], that whenever I open my mouth, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the gospel, 20for which I am an ambassador in chains. Pray that I may declare it fearlessly, as I should. (Ephesians 6)

We are praying Father according to your Word and to the testimony of your people, in the name of Jesus -- and we know that you have heard and that you have answered. Thank you Lord <3

Father God,
I thank you for the Indian Christians who have come to the chat rooms in the last few days.

They report that there is a definite anti-Christian move in government circles, and that some 200 Christians have dissappeared suddenly in certain places. I try to encourage my contacts to post updates here; pray that they will do so.

Let us continue to pray for our Indian brothers and sisters in Christ

yes Lord. Thank you for the updates from people that are in the field and that are ministering long term in India. Keep them safe and give them the words and the means to make such requests known so that other believers can agree with them. Guard their identities if they are at risk, cover them so that the enemy cannot even see them or locate them.

Father, I ask that you bring the stress level down for anyone that may be feeling overwhelmed. I pray that you would let your peace reign in every area, in every way. I ask that their would be no anxiety, and day to day would be met with confidence and focus on the work at hand that needs to be done. Slow and steady, strong and productive. Let their hearts be warm in the labor Lord. Send refreshing breezes physically, spiritually and figuratively ^_^

Whatever area of business they may find themselves dealing with there to help with finances, let them be skilled and prosperous. Let their reputations be known for integrity and kindness and wisdom, and cause them to be viewed with favor and respect. Allow it to cause key relationships to develop and friendships to flourish with the people of their communities and villages there. Be with them in their work as well as in their ministry. In the name of Jesus.

Lord, once again, make yourself known to them this day. In the moments of great activity as well as in the quiet of the afternoon or the night, let peace reign in their hearts. Let them rest in you and to know that they remain in the palm of your hand at all times. Joy Lord. Help them to walk in it day and night, help them not to chase it, but rather to just receive it from you in the course of serving God and serving People.

Thank you Father, that you have heard us. Thank you for the voices that you have placed in India. Let them know how pleased you are with them. Let them know that their humble hearts and quiet passion to love others is a reflection of you. Let them know that no matter how small they may feel or how insignificant their efforts may seem, they are moving mountains and commanding the seas for your glory and in your name. Thank you for these servants of God. Bless them and hug them and affirm them. In the name of Jesus. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/19/2008 3:24:54 PM)

Father we pray for our brothers and sisters in India today. Be with them in this moment, this day, this week, this month. Whatever they are doing, whatever they are facing, whether times of rejoicing or times or trial, help them to see your face and to hear your voice. Make yourself known to them in ways that make an extreme impact on their lives. Let that zeal and passion flow from their lives into the lives of everyone they encounter in India.

Save the lost in that region Father. In the name of Jesus, let the light of the Gospel overwhelm them as something so beautiful and relevant that they cannot turn away from it. Draw them by your Spirit Father to the love and kindness and goodness of Christ. Give the Christians in India the words to speak in each specific encounter. Whatever that unique individual needs to hear from you Lord, let your people be your voice, let them speak your heart and your wisdom.

Once again keep your hedge of protection around your missionaries and your people. Guide them in every decision, large and small. Give them peace in knowing that you are with them, no matter how alone they may feel or how distant they feel from your people and your presence. Help them to persevere, knowing that times of refreshing will come. And that feast will always follow famine for those that love you Lord. Be their hope, their encourager, their comforter and their guide. Thank you Father. You are a great and loving God and we praise you Jesus.

Amen.

I heard a missionary today on the radio from India. Touching!

I have friends from India and I'm so glad Christ works in this country too. Dear Lord, I come before you today simply asking for your friends down in India, please support them, give them the faithful drink you supply to all of us Christians. Dear Lord help us to draw near to you so that we can pray the friends down in india that we may impart blessings with them in heaven. Thank You Jesus just that you hear, in your Name may it be done, Amen.

"But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach; and it will be given to him." James 1:5

Wonderful verse and prayer. Yes Father, provide drink to the people of India we ask, in the name of Jesus. Clean water, and healthy living conditions, especially for the children and the elderly. As this verse suggests, we ask for wisdom to pray for the Christians in India. Come Holy Spirit and give us the words to speak, help us to know what requests to make known. We know that we merely need to ask, and God will answer with power and compassion.

Once again keep your people safe in the face of persecution. Let every freedom that is taken from them to worship and learn of you, be replaced with three more open doors to nourish them spiritually in you Lord. Let every attempt of the enemy to attack and discourage them only encourage them, protect them from such attacks Jesus. Keep your presence and your hedge around them, be their rear guard and their faithful companion. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you for all who are praying for your people in India as well as for all the requests on this forum. Let your anointing flow and give favor to all who are interceding. Answer in ways that will cause all men to acknowledge that Jesus is Lord and that our God is the one true God. Let them know your love and your heart for them. Let them taste of your kindness and let them witness your love among your people. Pour out your Spirit in every area of their lives and let them understand how real you are.

Thank you Jesus that you have come to set us free. Thank you Father that you have not forgotten nor forsaken a single one of us. Free the people of India from every bondage. Let your light shine brightly among them and give them hope and peace with God. We give you praise and so much love Lord. You are worthy, so worthy Lord. Amen.

selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/21/2008 9:21:58 AM)

Father, thank you for billiefan, comeuphere, mbw, kyl, joseph and all those that are praying for the Christians in India. There are so many more that are also interceding, and I know Lord that you hear their prayers and you are answering this very moment. We thank you and we give you praise, and I ask that you would pour great favor and blessing out upon those that are interceding, their families, their church families, their finances, and most importantly their walk and relationship with you. Let their loved ones know you Father, Let them know the love of Christ and bring salvation to every life that their life touches. In the name of Jesus.

Father, remove all confusion from the hearts of the children in India. Send voices to speak your Truth and your Love to them. Send hands to guide them and feet to walk with them and arms to hold them in your name. Let the Christians and the missionaries love and minister to the people of India as ambassadors for you. Assure the hearts of all who are persecuted there for your sake that you are with them. Protect them physically, guard their hearts, heal them in every way, strengthen their faith in you and in your people, increase their joy, let them be unshakable, bearing good fruit in all that they do. Be their confidence Lord that they can do all things thru you.

Father bless the quiet moments. Fill their thoughts with pleasant things, with your word and with insight they have never known before. As they meditate on all that you have said, let it become personal to them, let it speak into specific situations that they are facing right now. Let direction and understanding become crystal clear concerning anything they might be wrestling with.

Lord give them more opportunities to read and study your Word. Give them teachers and translators and all that they need to hear... all that you want to tell them. Provide moments in the day and in the night where they can focus on you without neglecting their work or the needs of others. Multiply their time and energy to accomplish much, without feeling rushed or stressed or stretched too thin. Open doors where they can be free to grow in their relationship with you Jesus. Provide all things that they may need to free up a little more time for them to study your word.

Thank you Father for another day to praise you. Thank you that you have kept us thru the night and that you are walking with us in the day as always. You are so Faithful in all things. Thank you that you are here and you are in India and you are present with anyone that will call upon your name. Even those who do not know you as Savior, you are with them honoring the prayers of those that are praying for them... loving them and working all things so that they may know how much you want to be their help, their God, their friend.

We love you Lord. And we ask that you do these things for your people in India, our brothers and sisters that love you and who are loved by many. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Let Jesus stand Supreme, dear Lord.

Let them understand that culture is not God.
Many gods are not God.
Family and heritage are not God.
Jesus is not just 'one' of many gods.

Help them to be awash in the Truth of the Bible. Reach them all Lord. Start a fire of Truth in India, Lord. Let a revival be un-stoppable.

Thank you dear God.
Thank you mighty Lord.
Thank you Jesus!

Father, we agree together for the people of India. That you would continue to shine your light and your love in that dark place. That your missionaries and your people there would have open doors to share your Truth with them, the truth of who Jesus Christ truly is, and how much he cares for them.

Be with the families of the Christians in India that may live in other countries or regions. Help them to be at peace with the call that you have put upon their loved ones heart. Bring them into agreement fully and let your grace and comfort and strength reign in their hearts... especially those who have been called to release their children to missions, those who are having difficulty relating to such a call. Comfort their thoughts and assure them thru your word and thru relationships that their child/loved one is in the palm of your hand. There is no safer place no matter what we face in this life. As parents, we were designed to care for their safety, no condemnation for God-given emotions, but we ask that you give them strength to offer their most precious possession to your service Lord. You love them, and we trust you with ALL. But it is not always an easy thing, please help us. In the name of Jesus.

Father, bless the Christians in India today. Any livestock or animals or pets they may have. Bring health to every creature in their home or that their livelihood may depend upon. If any key animal in their life is sick or injured, I ask that you restore it's health to bless that person and their family. I pray that anyone that sells merchandise to provide for their families would be blessed with a good day, a good week, a good year of sales. I pray that you would provide increased merchandise and that many customers would pay them well. Prosper them in their finances and send people to them to teach them how to manage/budget their profits.

Lord I again ask about the cleanliness of their living conditions. Those that depend on the public water and baths to survive. Guard their health. Provide clean water and sanitary conditions to live in. I don't even know how that could be possible. I know the situation is grave. But Lord you see each and every person. You do not see numbers. And you care for each of them. Make a way I ask. Once again, especially for the children and the elderly, but also for entire families. Somehow, Lord, give them clean water, and let them know that it is by your hand. Let them know that you care. Help the missionaries play a key part in bringing those water sources. Perhaps that will keep certain doors open for ministry to continue. Any way you work it Father according to your wisdom and your mercy.

We ask that you continue to intervene with this legislation that is trying to make it thru the courts of that region. Father, stop it's progress and let it be rejected as law. Open the eyes of the officials there and let them see the harm that it will cause their people and that region if they cut off the kindness and compassion of Christian ministry. Help them to understand that following you can only help their people to love one another more, and cause them to be people of character and integrity. Silence every voice that speaks lies about you and your people. Expose them for what they are. And let those with authority there, understand your love for them and for their region. Reveal yourself to the people of India Lord. Let them see you as clearly as you see them. In the name of Jesus.

Thank for the revival that you are bringing to the people of India. Thank you Lord for protecting your people and for working all things for their good. Please continue to keep them in the center of your perfect will. Protect them from all evil, and give them your words to speak into the lives of every person they encounter in that region. In the name of Jesus. We ask that you revive India Lord for your glory and because of your great love for the people there.. Amen.

selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/23/2008 12:26:27 PM)

Yes Lord, we agree, we ask that your Spirit would fan the flame for your glory. Bless the people of India today. Move upon their hearts and shine the light of the Gospel into every area of their lives. Father, pour a fresh anointing and passion upon the Christians in India. Remind them of your love and all that convinced them of your Goodness. Walk them back thru the moment that they fell in love with you Jesus. And give them the words to tell their story to the lost.

Let is spread throughout that region of the world. Convince those that are slaves to sin that there is a better way, that they can be free, that they can know what it is to be loved, that someone cares and gave all so that they could find that perfect love. Remind your people of that perfect love... let it cast out every fear that the enemy has tried to oppress them with. In the name of Jesus. Perfect Love, let it be on the lips of many and in the hearts of all in India Lord.

Provision. Give food to the hungry there, give clean water, clothing, shelter, peace, protection, joy, friendship, success, encouragement, hope, and purpose to all those in India that call upon the name of your son, the name of Jesus. Let your people there be your hands and feet and voice and heart. Move thru them and their efforts, and multiply your goodness to many. There is a stirring among spiritual things for the glory of God. Let it manifest before their eyes. As they call upon you and declare your word, let them see you, let them see your hand at work in the big and the small. In the name of Jesus.

We praise you Father, Son and Spirit. We praise the almighty God. Your people are not forgotten, your people are not helpless or hopeless, your people are not defeated or enslaved -- your people have the blessing and favor of God. Empower them, Encourage them, Educate them, and Equip them. Thank you Father that you have promised much because of your love and your mercy. Thank you that you are faithful to your Word and that you work all things with such greater wisdom than we will ever understand. In the name of Jesus Christ your son, our Lord. Amen <3



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/24/2008 9:36:32 AM)

Father I thank you for this day. I ask that you remember your people in India today. I ask that you would open doors for the Gospel to be preached in every possible way. Let the Good News be conveyed in all that people read, in the conversations they have about family and life, in the beauty of your creation, in the kindness poured out in your name. Father, let your name be praised in all the earth, here in the US, around the world, and especially in India.

Father, help the hungry to find food. Help mothers and fathers find work and opportunity to earn wages to meet the urgent needs of their families. Give the children ways to help, give them opportunities to get an education so that they can help their families and share the Gospel. Give them testimonies of your goodness. Let them encourage others as they share how you provided for them and made a way each and every day.

Give them places to lay their head out of the heat or the cold or the elements. Keep them safe and loved, shelter them with your arms and your presence and with physical means. The need is so great in that region Lord. I cry out to you for help. Please speak to the hearts and minds of your people there and give them wisdom and creative ideas that will help to multiply the resources that you have provided. Help them to think of new ways to relieve the hurt and hunger and health of the people of India. They are starving Lord. And it is not your will.

Flood that region with your people, with your Truth, with voices that will teach them of you. Let them know that you care for them and that you will provide for them. Help your people to not feel helpless because of the bigness of the problem. Refresh them, renew their strength of body and mind and spirit. Let their joy be poured into the hearts of the hurting in that region. And let every seed of kindness and Truth that they plant bring forth a great harvest.

Stir the heart of India Lord. Let it blaze brightly because of your great love for her. Let her know you, let her desire Light rather than darkness. Open her eyes to all that is Good, all that you have planned for her and that you desire to bless her with. Guide her in the way that she should go, and help her to trust and obey. You have a great love for India Lord. They are your people, your children. They were stolen from you and you have come to take them back. Let it be so Lord. They are your heart, you have not forgotten them.

Thank you Lord for your great love for them and for us all. Anoint your people there. Let your presence flow from their lives in every way, let miracles pour forth, and let the testimony of the saved convince a multitude of your love. In the name of Jesus, Lord and Savior and Friend. Amen.

Yes Father, thank you for the power that is loosed when your people pray and agree to believe your Word. And we do Lord. We agree, and we believe all that you have said and promised. We know that you are attentive to our cries, you never grow weary of our heartache or our burden or our need of you. It is your heart to minister and to love and to help and to be all things to your children. Not just in our little patch of the world, but across the entire earth. You love each and all of us. You love the people of India, and so do we. Increase that love even more Lord, so that our hearts will be moved with compassion as yours was for the hungry and the hurting.

35And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people.
36But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd.
37Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few;
38Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.
(Matt 9:35-38) KJV

Help us Lord to be like you. Equip and Empower your people in India to accomplish your perfect will, all the blessings and goodness that you have planned for ANYONE in India that will call upon you as Lord and Savior. Anyone that will trust in you, those that hunger and thirst for the Truth and Love of God.

Let your people go to all the cities and villages of India, teaching in their churches, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, healing every sickness and every disease among the people. Let their hearts be moved with the same compassion that is in your heart Lord, because of those that are faint, and scattered without homes, like sheep having no shepherd, no one that truly cares for their well being and their joy.

The laborers are few Lord and the need is so great. There are so many. How can we feed them and clothe them all and minister to ALL of their needs? We simply cannot. But you can Lord, and you can make us able to be a part of it. Raise up your people and put all things in their hands to accomplish the miraculous in India for your glory Lord. In the name of Jesus, our Lord, our Example of Compassion and Love and Service.

You said to pray that laborers would be sent to gather the harvest, a harvest of souls, a harvest of hurting people, people lost in darkness -- people that are fruit and beautiful and precious in your eyes... people that have value and that you love because they are yours -- the people of India. Send laborers Lord, skilled in every way, reflections of you, looking across the vast sea of the broken-hearted with a determination... laborers that see them as family and brothers and sisters and who will walk with them thru this difficult time, reminding them that God has not forsaken them, that he will make a way for them day to day to eternity and forever. Let them understand the extent of your love Lord. Let them see your love for them and for their nation manifested in your people.

Thank you Father... for so much. Thank you Jesus for being our example and allowing us the privilege to walk with you as you walk with people. It is good fellowship, it is precious fellowship, and I praise you for welcoming each of us into it. We are one in you Lord. Let it be so in each of our lives and especially in India, right now, today, birth a revival Lord that will bless the people of India and that will sweep around the world. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Father, thank you for what you are doing in India. Thank you that have healed many and poured out miracles as a testimony of your power and goodness. Let the good news of all that you are doing there be shared thru out that region and far beyond it's borders. Let it encourage others that might be wavering in doing well, those that have felt that they have labored so long in vain. Let them hear and see and know that God lives in India and throughout the world. Just as John the Baptist asked questions from his jail cell and at his lowest point, some of your people in India that have labored and suffered long have cried out to you asking for a sign... you sent word to John back then, and I ask that you send word to the weary Christians in India today...

2When John heard in prison what Christ was doing, he sent his disciples 3to ask him, "Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?"
4Jesus replied, "Go back and report to John what you hear and see: 5The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor. 6Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me."
(Matt 11;2-4)

Let the reports bring increase Lord. Let the discouraged and the weary find renewed strength and renewed hope. Increase their faith and increase their testimony. Increase the outpouring that is happening right now in India. Lord we believe all that you have spoken. We agree and declare that the promises of God are yes and amen. In the name of Jesus.

Father we ask that the reports be proclaimed so that the testimony of your people will open doors for the Spirit of God to draw the people of India to Christ. For your glory Lord. Let the blind recieve their sight, let the lame and the crippled walk and run and laugh and praise you Lord. We ask the you would cure leprosy and AIDS and every incurable disease that is eating away at the health and life of the people in India. We ask that you would open the ears of the deaf so that they can hear your word preached and the name of their God declared in their nation.

Father, raise the dead and restore lost loved ones to their families and their churches according to your wisdom and your mercy. You are able Lord. Open doors for the Gospel to be preached where no one thought possible in India, let resources pour forth so that the poor especially would hear the good news and be blessed (spiritually and physically). Meet every need of the hungry and hurting of India. Let the faith of many increase, let those who are weary be refreshed. We thank you so much Lord. There is no God like you. The Lord he is God and there is no other! Let the people of India understand this Truth. Remove all confusion and misconceptions and let them see that Jesus is God. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/27/2008 9:56:02 AM)

Father, thank you for your faithfulness. Thank you for your presence in our lives, for loving us with such a complete love, full of wisdom, full of mercy, full of discipline, full of blessing. We are a blessed people, all of us, those in America, those in India, all believers around the world. YOU are our blessing and we are so humbled and full of thanks that you would desire such relationship with us... that you would pay such a great price just to give us all. I love you Lord.

Please cover your people in India today. There is such great need there. The hungry cry out. Hearts are broken. The poor weep into the night feeling as though all hope is lost. But such heaviness and such oppression is not your plan Father. You have a plan to prosper them and restore their hope. And we invite your Spirit to come and fulfill every promise and plan of God in the nation of India. Pour out abundance upon your people so that they can pour it out into the lives of the people in that region. Open doors for the Gospel to be preached, it is that Good News, the Good News that God is with us and that His Son is our Blessed Hope -- that is your plan and we declare it. In the name of Jesus.

Let the darkness pale. Let the light of your presence and the name of Jesus drive it away. Give your people insight into practical as well as revolutionary ideas that will allow all resources to be multiplied to minister effectively to the multitude. Let every need of every single person be touched and met. Let them know that you see them, that you love them, that you are fighting for them, and that nothing can separate them from the love of God. Encouragement. Hope. Peace in the midst of chaos and poverty. Help the people of India Lord. They are like us, they are in such need of you.

Give us souls Lord!

Our heart hungers. Their heart cries out for you.
As One People in Christ, we desire to see your presence manifested in all the earth. According to all authority given to us in the name of Jesus, we declare the will of God be done in India. Not by our might, not by any man, not by fate or chance, but by the blood-bought love and power and authority of the One True God. Amen.



selahgirl -> RE: Pray for the Christians in India (1/28/2008 12:21:26 PM)

Father, we give you praise this morning. You are so amazing, so absolutely beautiful and precious Lord. I just don't understand how such a great God would love us so much and show us such favor and affection. You are not just God... you are Daddy, Father, God and Friend. Thank you for remembering us and loving us and for always being with us.

Father, I ask you to also remember our brothers and sisters in India today as always. Walk close to them, carry them if they are crippled, heal them if they are wounded, strengthen them if they are weak, laugh with them if they are full of joy, discipline them if they are yielding to temptation and the enemy's snare, remind them that you are present and active in their life right now, where ever they are, whatever they are facing. In the name of Jesus.

Provision and Protection and Encouragement, Lord. Let the hungry be fed and help the thirsty to find clean water. Let every person in India hear the Good News that God loves them and has come to set them free from the darkness that surrounds them. Draw their hearts by your Spirit Lord. Teach your people around the world and in India to speak directly to their need, teach us how to take authority over all things in heaven and in earth, your will be done Father.

We agree together that the people of India begin to see thru eyes of compassion rather than eyes blinded by caste. Let a great love and respect rise up in their hearts for all people, no matter their social class. Remove the scales from their eyes and let them see the beauty and potential and value of every life that you have created Lord. Overwhelm them with a love for their brothers and sisters, especially the poor and hurting and untouchable. Hearts of Compassion and Humility Lord.

Bring Change in powerful and beautiful ways. And let the testimony of your people not be silenced or suppressed. Open doors of favor and multiply every word spoken in your name, increase every resource made available. Make a way for every single thing thought impossible. Protection for those that are being attacked, Encouragement for the persecuted, Wisdom and Hope for those determined to honor your name despite great suffering, Light/Joy for those plunged in darkness for a season. In the name of Jesus.

Thank you Father!

Our every breath should praise you... without end... there is just such indescribable reason to shout constant thanks to our God -- with zeal and consuming passion! You are so great and glorious. No wonder the heavenly creatures repeatedly cry "HOLY!" at every glimpse of you. Heaven is filled with praise of you Lord, let the earth be filled with such praise as well.

Thank you for all that you are doing, LORD. Thank you for inspiring and honoring our prayers for India. Thank you that you love the people of that nation so greatly. Thank you that they are our family, and we rejoice with your Spirit that revival has come and India is being set free by Truth -- The Truth that Jesus Christ loves them and has come to set them FREE from sin, and to give them ABUNDANT LIFE with him as a child of God forever. In the name of Jesus. Amen.

Thank you Father for those that are agreeing in prayer for India. Bless them and cover them and pour your favor out upon them and their families as well. We pray for the Christian Servants ministering in that nation once again Lord. We ask that you would guide them in everything they do, whether it is gathering supplies, making decisions concerning their safety, teaching academics, sharing the Gospel from the Word of God, or being the hands and feet of Christ to someone that needs help in a practical way. Give them discernment to know and understand the heart and desire of each and every person you send across their path. In the name of Jesus.

Father help those that are working with the children. The needs of children can be many, especially in a school setting. They do not always see the blessing and can have bad days along with the good days. We are all human. Move upon the hearts of the children and bring a peace to any that may be affected by any stress in their life that can cause them to vent emotions they may not even understand. Give the teachers wisdom and perseverance to not grow weary, but help them to be refreshed and patient and to see past the outward behavior to the needs/burden of each child. Anoint your people that are teaching the children in India, help them to discipline in love when necessary -- it is their heart to minister to the whole child, just as it is Your heart Lord. Thank you so much.

Once again I ask for provision for another day. Please send food and clean water into the hands of your people in India. As they pray and give thanks, multiply it so that it will feed many. In the name of Jesus. You were moved with such compassion as you walked among us Lord, when you saw the physical and spiritual needs of the crowds as well as the individual. You have not changed. We ask that you would increase the Faith among your people to believe you for miracles that will bring increase and provision in every way. Increase your shepherds, your laborers, in that region. Increase the open doors for the Gospel to enter into the lives of the lost, and open the doors even wider that have already yielded to your will. In the name of Jesus. We ask for miracles Lord, seen and unseen. Let the name of our God be praised.

Healing, Health, and Wholeness. Look upon the sick and diseased we ask and touch them Jesus. Hear the prayers of your people, and raise them up for your glory. Comfort the hearts of those that have lost loved ones to death. Let them know that you see them, you understand their grief, their pain and loss is no small thing to you. Let them sense that you are with them and that they are not fatherless or motherless or childless. Let them know that they are loved and that you will walk them thru this difficult time as they trust in you. Let them sense your presence and your peace and your strength.

Father, please continue to watch over those that govern that nation. Lord do not let any legislation pass that would try to silence of limit the Gospel. In the name of Jesus. Reveal any deception that the officials may be doing that would bring harm to the people. And raise up Godly leaders in India, leaders that govern with Good character and a conscience... even if they do not know you as Lord. All authority is yours Lord in heaven and in the earth. And we praise you. Thank you for intervening in so many ways to bless your people in India. You love that nation Lord just as you love mine. They are our brothers and our sisters, our family in Christ Jesus. Help them to understand your love, and to know you Jesus. Amen.
