UNITED-714 - Week 3
“For the
weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy stronghold.”
2 Corinthians 10:4 (esv)
“Finally, be
strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might. Put on the whole armor of
God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we do
not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities,
against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual
forces of evil in the heavenly places. Therefore, take up the whole armor of God,
that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to
stand firm.”
Ephesians 6:10-13 (esv)
The Prayer
Lord, we come
to You in prayer today. We believe in Your promise in 2 Chronicles 7:14: that
if we humble ourselves, pray, and turn from our wicked ways, You will hear our
prayer and heal our lands. Our community, nation, and our world are in
desperate need of Your help, Your comfort, and Your healing power. Lord, we ask
You to forgive us for turning our hears away from You. Hear our cry today as we
join with the Body of Christ around the world to stand together against the COVID-19
crisis.
Lord, strengthen
our minds and emotions with Your Truth that You are greater than COVID-19. Your
righteousness protects our hearts from despair. Your Word enables us to walk
through this crisis in peace.
Although this
is a physical disease, as believers, we know the enemy wants to take advantage
of this moment. But Together, we stand in faith against the powers of darkness
in this “evil day”. We put on the “whole armor of God” and stand firm on the
promises of Your Word!!!
With Your
armor, we stand protected from the fiery darts of panic and fear. We take up
the shield of faith on behalf of our families, our churches, our cities, our
nation, and the nations of the world. The Hope of salvation is our battle
helmet.
We declare the
promise in Your Word, that no weapon formed against us will prosper. Therefore,
we pray in faith that COVID-19 will be eradicated, panic will stop, and God’s
power will fill the earth.
WE HUMBLY
ASK ALL OF THESE THINGS IN THE POWERFUL NAME OF OUR LORD, JESUS CHRIST. AMEN.
