The eyes of YHVH are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. (Psalm 34:15)

The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. (James 5:16)

If you have suggestions for additions to this prayer list, please post them in the comments section. Thank you for praying!

1. Pray for those who for some reason feel they cannot go on…that they would reach for help and FIND it so that they do not chose to take their lives in despair.
2. Pray for unity among the denominations.  Yeshua said that those not against them were for them!   There were and are differences and some are significant, but the heart of the Father would, I believe, wish for us to find SOME common ground…and love each other.
3. Pray that history would be taught thoroughly and properly to our youth so that the mistakes of the past are not repeated.
4. Although some depend on pharmaceuticals for their existence for some reason or another, and while lowering the prices of prescription meds is a GOOD thing, pray that people would be healed and not NEED these meds and that they would not be dependent on them.  The whole pharmaceutical industry has become a giant entity that could control everyone who depends on it.
5. Pray for the homeless, and pray that Father would reveal to each of us, someone who genuinely needs a hand out to help them back up.
6. Pray for President Trump…for protection and good health for him and his family, for wisdom, knowledge, discernment, self control, courage, strength to lead our nation in spite of the opposition against truth and righteousness.
7. Pray for the spiritual and political opposition…that their eyes would be open to Truth that they might turn to Father and follow His ways.
8. Pray for the general population… that Father would pour His conviction out upon all and that we would all turn to Him in confession of sin, repentance, and obedience to Elohim.
9. Pray that the conservatives of America would have the courage and strength to stand up and be active to the goal of protecting our southern border.
10. Pray for the people who have so far been unable or unwilling to understand the sanctity of life from conception, so that they would reverse their thinking and remove unrighteous laws from the books that allow the murder of innocent babies.
11. Pray for the people who honestly NEED asylum in America…that they would be shown proper channels, so that our nation could be a help to those truly in need.
12. Pray for those in charge of voter registration to accomplish a purge of illegal voters, so that our elections would be AMERICAN elections.
13. Pray for victims of human trafficking…that they would be found and returned and that this practice would be stopped.
14. Pray for the leaders of “the church” who are whitewashing the Truth and deceiving their congregants.
15. Pray that our Father’s will be accomplished in all things and that Yeshua would come soon.
16. Prayer for Israel/Jerusalem, the land and the people.
17. Our military and law enforcement for safety, and for strength for them and their families  and especially for families of those lost in the line of duty.
18. Those suffering with unseasonable cold weather conditions, especially the homeless and the poor.
19. For those addicted…whether alcohol, drugs (prescription AND street), pornography.

A Word from Dr. Darlene

This whole idea of prayer has become more urgent I think.  I notice a lot of people leaning towards prayer more frequently, more fervently.

We get so busy in this world of ours that it can honestly be difficult to develop that relationship with Father that we need and desire.  Studying is good, but I don’t know that it really gets us closer to Him the way prayer does.  When we study, we tend to get caught up in what we perceive as wisdom gained and perhaps we lose sight of the relationship that we should be cultivating.

Might I suggest something for those who struggle with finding the time, making the time, remembering the time…?  Most now have a cellphone and they usually have an alarm on them.  Consider setting the alarm for maybe 9 am, and 3 pm, and just take a brief moment to thank Father for what He’s done so far that day, and bless His Name…Praise Him!  Then at 5pm, that alarm could go off to briefly pray for our nation and our leaders and for the peace of Jerusalem.   I imagine the alarm already goes off to get you up, so don’t forget to thank Him for the very breath He opted to continue providing in that we woke up!

Hopefully there’s another time that is set aside to spend a bit more time with Him, but I am thinking that perhaps having those reminders to just stop for a minute and recognize the One who put us here…might go a long way to getting us in a greater habit of talking with Him on a regular basis so that we might get closer.
