 We're glad that you're joining us here tonight on a time of prayer together. It's Thursday night, the opportunity for us to be able to get together and pray is an important thing and I want you to be able to be a part of it and to express to others and hope that others will join in as well. So if you'll take time, please to share this out on your platform wherever you may be watching from tonight. We're coming to you on our boxcast device through the app and of course simulcasting on YouTube and Facebook so you can pick it up there. So we thank you for being able to be a part. So we'll wait just a few moments for folks to get logged in and be a part of what's taking place here tonight in prayer. As we go to the Lord in prayer, we want you to be a part of it. We don't want you to miss what's taking place. And so as we're waiting on some folks to come on, please take time to share the broadcast that's taking place with others and hopefully there'll be some more that we'll be joining on. If you miss it on the first, then it will be available for you to rebroadcast and be a part of this time of prayer. And we thank you for taking time to do that tonight. If we ever needed prayer, it is now. If we ever need to get together in prayer, it's now. The Bible says, if two of us agree as touching any one thing, it shall be done. And so that's the reason why we're taking time nightly to pray together. And we'll be back with you tomorrow night as well as Saturday night. So we want you to make sure that you're here with us at prayer and share it out on your social media platform. We thank you for doing that. It really helps for others to be able to be connected as well. And I believe it will be a blessing to you. We are seeing how that prayer is being answered. As a matter of fact, I got a report in today from last night at Wednesday night service. We were praying for all of our friends out in Texas who desperately needed rain. And I got the report earlier today that let me see if I can find it here real quick. Just to be able to let you know. Hopefully it's right here. I can put my hand on it. Yeah. We prayed last night. It had been 84 days out in Brazos Valley, Texas, that area that they have not had rain and they desperately needed rain. Well, we prayed last night in the sanctuary air pace joining you with our friends and others to ask the Lord to send rain. And the report came in last night at 10 o'clock, the report came in that they were shocked for the first time in 84 days in Brazos Valley in central Texas, we will see rain. And it started raining and they have a forecast of rain for the next seven days. Isn't that just like God? Now, you may not appreciate it until you're in a place where you need the rain, but we thank God for all answers to prayer and for all the opportunities that we have to pray knowing and believing that God hears us when we pray. So thank all of you for joining us right now. And as we get ready to go to the Lord in prayer, I want to share with you a passage of scripture that comes from the book of Jeremiah 33 and three. It is one of the most infamous passages of scripture concerning prayer. And this is what it says. It says, call upon me. This is Jeremiah 33 and three. You might want to underline it yourself. It says, call upon me and I will answer thee and show you, show the great and mighty things which thou knowest not. That simple few words is a confirmation to Jeremiah that if he would call upon the Lord, that the Lord would hear him and show him great and mighty things, even things that he doesn't know is going to take place. So tonight as we go to the Lord in prayer, there's a lot of things in this one passage of scripture that I just want to bring out really quick. First of all, he says, call upon me. He didn't say call upon your neighbor. He didn't say call upon a religious organization. He didn't say call upon a group of people or a government official or the pastor. God said, call upon me. That's the first order of business. And then he says, when you call upon me, I will answer you. Think about it. God said that I am going to answer you when you call upon me. Now, part of prayer is being able to help us to pray correctly and in the will of God. And the fact is there may be sometimes when you're praying that you're expecting a certain answer and God comes with another one. God didn't say I'm gonna give you the answer to your prayer when you call upon me that you want. He said, I will answer you. I will answer you. So the promise is, God doesn't let prayers, sincere prayers from the heart go unanswered. He just says, call upon me and I will answer you. So there should be an expectation in your heart tonight as we go to the Lord in prayer for you to pray, call upon God and then expect an answer to your prayers. There's nothing worse than praying a lot and not seeing the answers come back. But just like I've showed you right here tonight already, as we prayed last night, there's rain in Texas tonight. And we praise God for that answer to prayer. Then he says this, this is so powerful. He says, if you'll call upon me, I will answer you and show you great and mighty things. Only in the mind of God can things be great and things be mighty. And the fact is, God said, I'm gonna reveal myself to you in great and mighty things. Here's my question. And we could go in a great explanation about it, but this is the thing that comes up in my heart. I wonder what God has in store with those great and mighty things for my life and for yours. Think about it. He said, I will show you great and mighty things. I won't just speak it to you. I won't just let you believe in something and then we'll see it sometime someday. But he said, I'm going to show you. I promise you, I'm gonna reveal to you great and mighty things. And then he closes that entire verse out by saying, which thou knowest not. So there are some things that we're calling upon the Lord for and we're expecting an answer for. And we believe that they're great and mighty things because we serve a great and a mighty God. But consider the fact that God is going to show us great and mighty things that we don't know. I wonder what God has in store for those who love him. The Bible says there's great and mighty things that we can expect and things that we might be expecting but God has even a greater thought in his mind about what it's going to be. Things that we've not even thought about. God has already been thinking about in our behalf. That's why we're here tonight in prayer. That's why we're seeking the face of God throughout this week. That's the reason why that we're seeking the God of all gods, not just any God and not the superficial gods of this earth. The God who sits high and looks low, the God who is on the throne, he is the king of kings and the Lord of lords. And the Bible says when we call upon him, in the powerful authoritative name of Jesus Christ, he not only hears us, but he will answer us and show us great and mighty things. Don't you believe that tonight? I do. I believe that God is a God of his word and he will bring it to pass just like he said. Now for those of you that are joining us right now and you're sharing it out, many of you that are joining us may have prayer requests on your heart and our director will put up there on the screen for you so that you can be able to know where to send in your most urgent prayer requests at info at paceassembly.org. We'll add that to the prayer list. And prayer warriors will pray over your need, believing God for the miracle to take place inside of your life. I truly believe that we're in a day when God is wanting to show himself great and mighty. The fact is, when we pray, God steps into our life, into this arena, into this environment, and we're inviting him in prayer to take charge of the situation. You say, well, Pastor God can do whatever he wants to when he wants to. Well, that's very, very true. But there is the permissive will. There is the providential will of God. The providential will of God said, I'm gonna do it even if I don't have other people involved. But there is that opportunity where we invite God by his spirit to intervene into situations for miracles, signs, and wonders to reveal the word of God to us, to answer our prayer. And the fact is, when you pray, you're humbling yourself before God and you're saying this most of all, God, I need you. I don't just need you in this, but I need you in that. And the other thing, whatever that it may be, when you believe, when you call upon the Lord, the promise is He will hear us and He will answer us when we pray. So I'm glad tonight that you're joining me in prayer. And this evening, we're gonna be praying specifically for our nation. I believe that it is so important that we call upon the Lord for our nation right now. There's certainly a lot of things that are going on and of course, inflation and everything that's happening that's affecting the lives of people. But we're gonna pray for our leaders this evening and we're gonna pray for our nation. We're in a position now in America where we are, quite frankly, post-Christian. That is to say, we're seeing more and more of the entrance of sin and the broadness of it and just worldly activity like we have never seen before. Even demonic spirits and oppressive spirits and depression, all kinds of things that are taking place. But I want you to know this, God is not under the circumstances. He is not underneath the world's power. He sits high, He puts His foot on the earth, everything. All principalities and powers are up underneath His feet. And He tells us that we can do the same thing. When we place our faith exclusively in the cross of Christ, that's where our faith is bonded with God's and God will do what He said He will do. So let's pray for our nation this evening and then as the spirit of God leads, we're gonna migrate from that into praying for the needs of people that are watching. So if you have a need and you wanna post that up there for others to be able to know or send it to info at paceassembly.org, we will be happy to pray with you about your need, believing God to minister to you. But will you join me right now in prayer for our nation and for our leaders? Let's do that right now. Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, we come before you in the powerful and mighty name of Jesus. We believe that tonight that all governments and all powers and principalities up underneath your feet, you're the God of all gods, the king of all kings and the Lord of all lords. There is no one higher than you are. You're the highest law, you're the highest authority. You are the power above all other powers. And that's the reason we're calling upon you tonight. And I pray God Almighty for our nation right here in the United States of America. We're not the only nation, we're not the only country, God, but we are a nation in need of you tonight. We have lost our way. And so tonight, Lord, as we call upon you, the first thing we do, Lord, is repent for the very sins of our nation. We've turned our back towards you in so many different ways through our laws and legislations and leadership that has thumbed its nose at the word of God and refused to obey the word of God. And we understand, Almighty God, that there are consequences to decisions that we make against your word. So tonight we repent before you and we ask you, oh God, have mercy upon us and forgive us of our sins, forgive us of our backsliding and the things, Lord Jesus, that we have neglected to do, the sins of commission and the sins of omission, the things that we should be doing but we're not doing. Help us as believers and Christians that are joining together in prayer tonight, oh God, to be able to join our hearts in this agreement, Lord, that we pray for the leadership of our nation that is desperately in need of your guidance and your direction and righteousness to rule in the very leadership of our nation. God, we see that there is corruption and there is sin and there is, Lord, all kinds of activities that are taking place that are tearing down and, Lord, eroding the foundation of this United States of America. But as believers, we follow the command of the Lord to pray for our leaders, Lord, from every capacity of their leadership, every area of their leadership. I pray right now, Spirit of God, that you would send sweeping revivals into the churches, encourage the pastors across our land, around our nation. I pray that you would give them strength to be bold in the word of God, to speak truth, to power, and to not compromise. And, Lord, we pray that you would heal the brokenness of America and show yourself mighty in great and mighty things that we don't even recognize that you're doing right now. Lord, intervene in this coming election. Help us, oh God, as believers, to vote as believers. Voting, Lord, the Bible and the principles of your word. Help us to find righteous leaders that will serve as statesmen and stateswomen in the offices of leadership in our nation. And we believe tonight, God, that you hear us when we pray. Send the revival to America. Send the revival and let it start inside of the churches of America and sweep across the United States of America. Let a burning fire happen inside of the pulpits, we pray. Lord, now we pray for those that are joining us who have specific needs, God, inside of their lives, family members that are hurting this evening and God may be in the hospitals, wherever they are. We pray for those that are sick in their body, people that are needing the touch of God. Lord, we believe that your stripes that you took on your back, the ones that were laid upon your back that, Lord, opened your very flesh that through the stripes that were laid on your back that we are healed by the power of God. Those stripes are evidence, God, of not only your desire to be our healer, but Lord, it is the very physical and practical act of allowing yourself to be beaten and bruised and wounded for every wound, every disease and every brokenness of our life. Lord, heal, I pray. People that are sick in their body, their disease is inside of their body. We pray, God, right now that you would release your healing power into their life right now. Heal them by the power of Christ. We come into agreement with every believer that's watching this broadcast right now and we ask you, God, to just let your spirit, Lord, just reach through hospital rooms and into the homes wherever that may be watching. Let your spirit now take charge in every way, healing their bodies. We pray for people that are God emotionally and mentally under the pressures and stress and anxious about the situations of the world, anxious about their work or their finances, whatever that it may be. We speak peace into their life tonight, mighty God. Let the peace of God that rules and reigns be theirs right now in the mighty name of Jesus. As they look into your word and call upon your name, you said, Lord, when we pray, we can cast all of our cares upon you because you care for us, all of our anxieties, all of our stresses, all of our pressures. You are the answer to the stress, the pressure and the anxiety of this world. Even now, Lord, you're releasing the burdens from the lives of people as they are simply calling upon your name and coming into agreement right now. I thank you, Lord Jesus. You said if one can put 1,000 to fly to 10,000, Lord, all of the people that are joining us right now and will join us, coming together as one, you're able to push back the darkness and cause the light to be turned on in the lives of people. God, for those, we pray right now for people that are listening to this and watching this that are dealing with depression. I pray, mighty God, that they would release that heavy coat of depression off of their life and begin to praise you with a garment of praise. Lord, let them find a praise on the inside. You said in your word that we should look for the praise and find their praise. If there be any praise to think upon these things, let that happen right now. We pray in the lives of people that are watching, putting on that garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness. And Lord, we pray tonight that you would just lift them up in the name of Jesus Christ. Lord, we thank you right now that you hear us when we pray. We have confidence to know that you said that if we'll call upon you, you will answer us and show us great and mighty things that we do not know. That's your word. You did it for Jeremiah. You did it for the children of Israel. And you will do it for those who will earnestly and fervently pray with all of their heart. That's your word. That's your promise. And we give you praise for that because you've never broken one promise. Oh God, to us, to those that are watching right now, you've never broken a promise. You've always been the God who is faithful to your word. And when you said it, you bring it to pass. We declare that tonight in the mighty name of Jesus. We believe, Lord Jesus, that no weapon formed against your people will prosper. We believe right now that all fear and God fear of their future, fear of Lord what's happening in their life right now would just be released in the name of Jesus Christ and let the peace of God just come sweeping into their soul right now. We pray for those, oh God, that have lost loved ones in recent days. Would you let the comforter come and just wrap them up and let them know beyond the shadow of any doubt that they're not forgotten and they're not forsaken, that you're the Lord who will be with them and you'll give them comfort and strength just like you always have. We give you praise for that tonight, mighty God. We thank you, Lord, because we know that you hold our future in the very palm of your hand and your word declares that our future is better than our past, that what's up ahead for us in your design and in your plan and in your providence and in the purpose of God is better than anything we've ever experienced in our past. We reach forward by faith, God, and we ask you to keep our eyes and our vision upon you and upon the things of God. Help us not to be distracted by what's going on in this world or the things that may come into our lives, God, that are sent to pull us off of our mission, off of our assignment. Tonight, our mission and our assignment is to call upon you in this period of time and just seek your face in prayer. Lord, we draw near to you tonight. Let the presence of God just come upon every viewer that is watching right now and those that will. Let your spirit just rest upon them like a comforting blanket this evening, Lord. And let this night, Lord, last night was so filled with lightning and thunder all around our area, but let this night be one of peace and calm and Lord, a restful sleep and peaceful sleep for people, rejuvenating their soul even in the middle of the night. Let angels camp around about the houses of those that fear you this evening, Lord and just keep the guard, I pray, in every way in the life of every individual. We thank you for that tonight, mighty God. Thank you for the privilege we have of this time together in prayer. We counted an honor, we counted a privilege because we're not calling upon someone who was only lifted to a human level, but we reach way beyond that into the very throne room of God to call upon your name to seek your face because we know you, God. We know you to be a good God, a merciful God, a faithful God and a God who hears us when we pray. Thank you, Lord. We commit all of these things into the name that is above every other name, the name of Jesus Christ that lives and reigns forever. Lord, release your presence now into the lives of people we pray and we give you glory for it. In the mighty and powerful name of Jesus Christ, amen and amen. Praise God. Well, I trust that you've enjoyed this time of prayer together. It is certainly a joy for me to be able to be here with you and I wanna thank all of you that are joining us right now. And if you'll just, again, just make sure that you share this out, many of you already have, but if you'll just share this out because the one thing about it, and I'll close with this tonight, the Bible says in the book of Revelation chapter number five that he holds the prayers of the saints in golden vials. And when the time has come, he's going to declare to the angel, open those vials of prayer and pour them out. So I want you to know that prayer lasts much longer than this very moment of prayer. It will go out into eternity. Our words will never be retrieved. They're out there. And God bottles up the prayers of the saints to be poured out at the appropriate time. I truly believe that those that have prayed prayers that have already gone on to heaven, their prayers are in those golden vials. And when God gets ready, he's gonna have the angel pour those prayers out, not only upon the earth, but upon your loved ones and those that are left behind. So what you're doing right now is not only of great value, but it is putting forth the word of God into your future to be able to bring forth the harvest. God bless you for that. Thank you so much for being here. Again, share it out and we'll look forward to seeing you tomorrow night. At this same time for prayer. We'll look forward to seeing you then. Until then, may God bless you.
