-Devotion and Prayer for the Day: Psalm 55

Join us in today’s prayer and devotion-

Read Psalm 55 and then join us in prayer:

Our Father,

Give ear to our prayer, the evil one has raised up ignorant folks against us; people who  claim to be educated but do know know you or respect your Word.

They come against us with words steeped in the philosophies of the world; as smooth as butter and with sounds of logical banter that challenge your very existence and make fun of our continuing devotion. They claim that evolution has passed us by and that we are on the wrong side of history. These ‘wise’ ones do not know that you are in control and the author and maker of the very creation and nature they claim to observe.

These self important ‘educated’ ones who claim to know so much are blind to your continuing reality; they do not know that your Kingdom touches the earth and your Holy Spirit dwells within the temple of all believers.

We pray for such that they may come out of the darkness into the light of your love and be released from the shackles of the enemy of their souls and be saved in your Kingdom for now and forever.

Until that day when they come before your Son and bow whether they want to or not, protect us from the ignorant actions of these ‘intelligent’ ones who are deceived by an ancient evil they do not believe exists. Give us words of defense and give us love for our enemies that defies any human understanding.

Rise up O God and do not let the enemies of your Son prevail, let the church rise up as never before in its darkest hour and fulfill its destiny. Let the reality of your Kingdom shine forth into the darkness and let your Word touch every nation and people.

Let healings and miracles become common place among your believers and shut the mouths of those who say that there is no God. Bring confusion among those ‘wise’ ones who glory in their claims that there is nothing beyond the physical realm; let them see the results of the supernatural Creator at work in the world which cannot be denied or argued away.

Meanwhile, let us praise your name and the name of your Son Jesus and look forward to His coming in the clouds and the establishment of Your Kingdom on the earth.

And in His name we pray, Amen.
