    DAY 39– April 8 Exalt His Name

                                    40 Day Prayer Journey to Life Transformation

 

We are continuing to press on in these 40 Days of repentance and prayer to seek the Lord and for true transformation to occur. Jesus has been with us on this journey through ups and downs, struggles to stay on course, to stretch out of our comfort zone and to grow in the Lord.  Let us give Him the praise He deserves. Praise Him and exalt His name.

                 

I hope you have been encouraged to grow in daily meditating on the daily scriptures that apply to a specific focus, fasting and writing in your journal. Even if you made small improvement don’t you give up. It takes discipline and getting out of our comfort zone to look at the “man or woman in the mirror” and to repent. God wants you to seek His face in intimate communion, consultation, and listening. He wants you to intentionally seek His heart and voice in everything that you do. He also wants us to obey His Word.  During these 40 Days you should want and God wants to see transformation in our hearts, mindset and lifestyle. He wants us to grow in the power by the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

 

Scriptures:   Exodus 15:1-2; Psalm 34:1-3; Psalm 99; Philippians 2:5-11

 

Repent:  Of not magnifying and lifting high the name and person of Jesus Christ; of not participating in praise and worship of the Lord-personally and corporately; of not giving the Lord the honor that is due His name; of_____________________.

 

 

Pray:

 

  • For forgiveness for not praising and honoring God as we should.
  • That the spirit of true praise and worship will break out in the church.
  • That you will faithfully magnify His name and give Him the honor and glory due Him.
  • Praise God that He is the Exalted One; that His name is above every name, and that every knee will bow and tongue confess that Jesus is Christ is Lord.
  • For assurance of being able to hear as God’s children the voice of the Lord,
  • Intercede that you will find a place to be quiet and sit before the Lord , expecting to hear what He has to speak today.
  • For grace to walk in humble obedience to hear His voice.
  • For ears to hear from the Lord in the way He has chosen to speak to and through His children;
  • That the church will have a deep desire to hear His voice as a corporate

 

DAY 40– April 9  Seeking to Rise Spiritually  by Worshiping God Together Forever

                                    40 Day Prayer Journey to Life Transformation

 

This is the last day of the 40 Day Prayer Journey to Life Transformation.  As these 40 days of repentance, fasting and prayer draw to an end, we must make a commitment and set  our minds to press onward to consistently seek the Lord in prayer and worship and to intercede for your city, family , nation and others. Jesus has been with us on this journey through ups and downs, struggles to stay on course, to stretch out of our comfort zone and to grow in the Lord.  Let us give Him the praise He deserves. We must hold fast to the transformation in our lives we have experienced. May we rally together to transform our city with the presence of Christ.

 

The number 40 is a significant number. In the Bible 40 is a specific time period associated with a period of testing, trial, probation or chastisement. “The number 40 is a indication that God is ready to birth something new out of pain or challenge”. Kingdom Principles for Everyday Living by Stewart Perrilliat. It rained 40 days and nights , Moses was on the mountain with God for 40 days and nights,  and the Israelite wandered for 40 years before entering the Promised Land. Jesus fasted in the wilderness for 40 days and 40 nights in the wilderness. Believe with great expectation that this 40 Day Prayer Journey will develop a more intimate relationship with the Lord, a casting off of “old garments” and a renewed mind and heart which will result in transformation in your life.

Scriptures:  1 Chronicles 16:7-36; Psalms 95, 96; John 4:21-26

 

Repent:  Of failure to humbly worship the Lord for who He is –Kings of Kings, Holy, Loving, Lord; of not gathering with other believers to worship the Lord in spirit and in truth; of not giving our all to the Lord as an act of worship; of not worshipping Him with your whole heart  but only in form; of not magnifying and lifting high the name and person of Jesus Christ; of not participating in praise and worship of the Lord-personally and corporately; of not giving the Lord the honor that is due His name; of_____________________.

 

Pray:

  • Pray for the church to have a Christ-centered worship experience in spirit and truth that will please the Father.
  • For and receive a heart revived to passionately and completely worship the Lord, simply because He is worthy of our praise, worship and adoration.
  • Pray for sincere and honest exaltation of the name of the Lord, born of the Holy Spirit and the Word.
  • Pray for humility and unity among believers that will give rise to worshiping the Lord in the beauty of His holiness throughout the church.

  • Pray that you and members of the church will worship the Lord in spirit and in truth.
  • Praise God – that He reigns now and forever. Amen!
  • REJOICE!!!——–This is the last day of the 40 Day Prayer Journey.

40 Day Prayer Journey -God is only a Prayer Away

god is only a prayer away404474_10150516191971431_1410908833_n

Day 31 of 40 Day Prayer Journey to Life Transformation.
God is Only A Prayer Away

We have been on this 40 day journey for 31 Days today( See daily prior posts). How are you doing with meditating on the scriptures, talking to God about you and Him ,praising Him for His greatness and talking about what’s on your heart and confessing your sins and telling Him about the strongholds in your life. Tomorrow we will continue our prayer point focus. I thought today I would change the format on Day 31.

This prayer journey should be a holy heart searching response to God’s call for each of us to seek His face for life transformation. So I hope you step out of your comfort zone into His loving arms with hope and expectancy, for God has promised that when you- His children “humble themselves, and pray and seek(His) face, and turn from their wicked ways, then He will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land” (2 Chronicle 7:14)

On this journey we have been praying about our relationship with God, our relationships with family members and our relationships with those in the body of Christ. Are you growing more in grace? I pray that this time will be radically used by the Lord to bring life transformation to us all, personally and corporately. I need it. One thing I am thankful for that God is only a prayer away. Stay on the prayer journey. Don’t quit.

~~ God Is Only a Prayer Away. ~~ When Troubles and Problems are All Closing In, Remember~~ God Is Only A Prayer Away. ~~~ Seek and Inquire of Him

My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me”, And my heart responds, “Lord , I am coming”. Psalm 27:8 NLT

Hear ,O Lord, when I cry with my voice have mercy and also upon me, and answer me. When you saidst, Seek ye my face, my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord will I seek. Psalm 27:7-8 (NKJV)

Hear Lord, when I cry aloud; have mercy and be gracious to me and answer me.
You have said, Seek my face (inquire for and require My presence as your vital need) My heart says to You. Your face (Your presence Lord, will I seek, inquire for, and require (of necessity and on the authority of Your Word). Psalm 27:7-8 (AMP)

What do you need to ask and talk to God about today? Who are you interceding for today? Pray. Believe. Hear. Listen. Pray. Believe. Do what God tells you to do. God is only a Prayer Away.

The second week we focused on our relationship with our family relationships and the third week our relationship with those in the body of Christ. On Day 21 we focused on repentance and reconciliation in broken relations in our families and with friends and loved ones and between and among congregations. Today we focus on forgiveness among family members, friends and church members and congregations.

Scriptures: Matthew 6:14-15; 18:1-35; Ephesians 4:25-32; Colossians 3:12-17

• Ask God to stir a continual heart of repentance in you.
• Pray for families to practice forgiveness, demonstrating the amazing grace we each have received in Jesus Christ our Lord.
