I pray for the cold heart Those that are distant those that have become weary or burdened or heavy laden with religion God We break that in the name of Jesus and we ask that you would move in power Holy Spirit we enthrone you right now Over Grand Rapids over Michigan over this whole region We say you are the Lord of all that every knee will bow and tongue confess that you are Lord And so right now in the middle of our Friday morning, we exalt you above every principality We exalt you above every distraction We exalt you right now and we say come and have your way your will be done and your kingdom come Would you draw all men all women all children back to yourself? We say that this will be a generation marked with their hearts set ablaze for the things of God So with the boldness we come before you Lord Jesus and we say draw your bride back to yourself Set her ablaze again Lord, we say come and have your way in Jesus name Fire rain down Typically for the renewing of minds Lord you say that do not be conformed to this world They'll be transformed by the renewing of your mind Lord. We ask boldly for encounter I pray for those that are coming even being dragged by a parent or a friend Lord I pray for holy encounters Lord that will set them ablaze that your spirit would fall with Purifying fire that you would separate the chaff from the wheat even in our own heart God the things that we have given ourselves to I Pray right now that you would come in and that you would burn and set us ablaze for the truth of what it is That you have called us to God I pray also right now for the breaking of a religious spirit Where a religious spirit has come in and put a burden on your people that you never laid a Yoke that was not yours. We declare right now that your yoke is easy and your burden is light So father I pray for the breaking off of religious yokes Lord for the breaking off even of religious mindsets where we are earning your love or it's anything of ourselves I pray God that at the send there would be moments of breaking Lord that you would come in and speak life Lifting off burdens lifting off things of this world and that you would bring the truth of the gospel that you would bring to Remembrance Encounters of their youth God in moments where they felt your presence in the moment where they would call return us to the Joy of our salvation in Jesus name would you release Lord truth and light? We break a religious spirit in the name of Jesus and we say Lord your will be done and your kingdom come Your will be done in your kingdom come Come and have your way in Jesus name Me has whispered lie be open to hear the Lord that our eyes would be open to see the Lord Father we say come and have your way Open up our ears Open up our eyes open up our minds to comprehend what you are doing to partner with you and to us to do For such a time as this open up our ears Open up our eyes in the name of Jesus. I just want to target our prayers right now. I Wanted you to get someone in your mind specifically who you know who just has loved the Lord in the past Maybe they've drifted even just slightly Let's just go into just a moment of intercession naming them by name asking for their hearts to be set ablaze returning to the Lord So just out loud just begin to name them Let's target our prayers that their hearts would be set ablaze their minds would be renewed in the Lord So father right now we lift up these ones We lift up them specifically before you God we ask their hearts would be set ablaze Lord we pray where the enemy has deceived them or burdened them or hurt them We ask that you would call them back with your loving kindness It is your kindness that leads us to repentance So God right now we just ask for an outpouring of your kindness over them Lord that they would no longer be satisfied with things of this world But that they would give themselves to the things of God that they would taste and see that you are good That they would experience the love of the Lord be reminded of your experience with them Would you draw them back to your heart? So we declare that those who are once far off would we brought near to the heart of God? Lord I pray right now. We're ashamed and guilt Fear and insecurity has had their grips on these ones that you love We break those grips in the name of Jesus and we say that your love your kindness your compassion your mercy Would be made known would you come in with power would you come in with truth? Where deception has reigned in their ears and in their minds we say the truth of God the light of the Father would come So we say in the name of Jesus those who are far off would be brought near For prodigals. I feel that some that we've cast off or we've said too far The Lord is calling us back and reminding us to believe in him his power again So even the ones that we've cast off in our minds I want us to fill our hearts again with hope and intercede for them just for a minute or two longer And just say God I believe again. I repent for my lack of belief And I pray for my my father pray for my Sister who I've cast off and said there's no hope for her But I repent for that and I pray and I believe again that you're calling her back You're drawing him back to you Ones that we've cast off Would you draw them back to you? Lord draw them back to you Oh ones that we've cast off Would you draw them back to you? Lord draw them back to you Oh would you draw them back to you? Lord draw them back to you Oh draw my prophesy draw them back Oh draw them, Lord draw them to you Oh I sing it faith, I sing it hope For the sin conference and I just will I just feel burdened to pray for just a release of the burden of the gospel So this is Romans 10 14 how then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him who they have not heard and how will they hear without a preacher? Or some verse and says someone to tell them father we just ask Even as you reignite hearts and pull them back to yourself We ask that there would be a releasing of the burden of the gospel Lord that we would not become like a dead sea we're receiving from you but never pouring out God I pray right now That there would be a releasing of the good news That we would be burdened to share the good news of the gospel That we would be those that say yes and amen here I am Lord send me Father I ask right now for every person in that arena But everyone in this region Lord that has given themselves to you We pray that your word would go forth swiftly Your word would go forth with power We release right now your truth over this region God I pray that you would set us ablaze for the gospel That we would feel your heart for the lost That we would feel what you feel That we would experience the burden that you feel for your children who are far Who have never known you who have never heard the good news So we ask in the name of Jesus that you would release a burden for the gospel And that we would say yes to being sent and sharing the good news In Jesus name Let's sing this even as a declaration Pray for boldness to be released over your children To share the gospel Lord that we would not be satisfied with our friends and family members not knowing the Lord We pray for those who have never heard your voice Who have never experienced your presence Who have not heard the gospel I pray right now for boldness over your children To speak forth the joy of their salvation That they were once dead and now they are alive in Christ I pray that we would have the burden that you have Sharing with you Proclaiming the good news of the cross God we ask even now for a release of boldness And a release of joy over your children To share the gospel To be known To see you kingdom come and your will be done So Father right now I just pray that that would be released over the sin gathering As speakers come forward and worship moments happen It wouldn't just be a nice gathering of believers But it would be a catalyst and equipping moment That they would be launched forth from that place To bring the good news to their friends to the family and to the nations Lord I pray that those that are even young high school students Receive a call to the nation That you would release burden You would release dreams and visions God I pray for moments where they would feel the encounter of the Lord And not be something that they bottle up within themselves But that they go with urgency to share what you have done Who you are So God we ask in the name of Jesus Release burden and release boldness in the name of Jesus And God we specifically ask right now for just a baptism of the Holy Spirit To be poured out God I pray for those who have been offended at the Holy Spirit Those that have been offended by different religious experiences Or by false teaching And we ask God for just a cleansing and a healing of the heart And God I ask for just a release of your spirit A baptism in your spirit To give confidence, boldness And equipping to the saints to share the gospel Lord I pray even for the laying on of hands And moments where those who are so foreign to them That they would not shrink back But that they would say yes and amen to anything that you have So right now I pray for softened hearts Or a religious spirit that would resist the things of the spirit We just ask right now that you would come We say that you are welcome, that we want you That you are the answer to a dry and weary place That you are the answer to a weak and scared heart So we ask that you would release your power That you would release boldness You would release confidence And we ask in the name of Jesus For a baptism of the Holy Spirit in this region In Jesus' name We are open God And right now for putting you in a box Or trying to control you Lord we repent where we have hesitated Or where we have judged another Lord where we have tried to make sense of it in our own mind And they're limited you God We just repent right now and we say that you are God And we are not Holy Spirit we honor you In every way that you want to move We surrender to you and to your leadership Would you come reveal Jesus to a nation and to a region God we repent on behalf of this region Where they have put you in a box At any level God and we ask that you would move Don't pass us by God don't allow a religious spirit to mute us Or to set us aside God we ask in the name of Jesus That you would pour out your spirit Do it one more time God Pour out your spirit on this region Lord we repent of a religious spirit God we repent of where we have tried to put you in a box Or control you And we ask God that you would ignite our hearts Set us ablaze God where we feel offended In our mind by what we see We ask God that you would bring Renew our mind in the things of Christ That you would release the heart of God Lord I pray right now Where there has been disunity Amongst different denominations Amongst brothers and sisters God over this issue I ask for a cleansing I ask Lord Jesus that you would bring A spirit of repentance Lord that you would draw us back to yourself I pray for relationships That have been severed for years I pray that the send even would be A moment of repentance And that it would be a moment Where you bring brothers and sisters Back together Lord that you would return The heart of the father I pray unity over this gathering In the name of Jesus I pray right now Just against the principalities That are operating in a religious realm Trying to bring disunity We're trying to promote themselves Lord we say that you are God That you are King And you alone will lead And so
