Prayer - 09-22-13

I"m really feeling led to pray for people that need to be set free
tonight from un-forgiveness, bitterness, anger, bad memories, hurts, etc....


Dear Lord,
...
We ask that you be with those who are struggling to forgive. Lord, there
are those who are trying their best, but they just don't know what to do
to totally let go. We ask that you would show them, Lord. Speak to their
hearts and reveal yourself to them that they might fully experience the
freedom that comes from letting go of anger and hurt and bitterness and
pain. We pray that you would search their hearts and find anything that
they've buried deep down, trying to avoid the pain...

For those who have anger and bitterness towards you, Lord and they have
never really acknowledged that's how they feel, but those feelings are
there none the less ... we pray that they would find release. You know
exactly how they feel. They are not hiding anything from you...you are
pained to see them suffering and struggling...Oh, Lord please let there
be breakthroughs and deliverance. We ask that you would cleanse, renew
and restore, what the enemy has tried to steal from them.

Lord, you died to set the captives free and for each person praying, you
are longing to set them free from long-held hurts...long held
secrets...long held feelings of inadequacy...long held feelings of
rejection...long held feelings of they don't do things right... there
are people here, that aren't even aware that they are holding pain in
their hearts. There are some that think because they prayed about it,
and then buried it, that is all they had to do to deal with it. They
don't realize that they are carrying around pain deep inside their
hearts and minds and it affects their day- to- day life and
decisions.... Lord, you are trying to set them free... may they respond
to you and hear your voice.

For all those who have been abused, Lord...we ask that you would help
them to be set free from the haunting memories. For all those who
trusted and were hurt over and over again...we pray that you would
soothe their wounds and bind their hearts. For all those who know what
it is like to be abandoned by family, friends or spouses...please help
them to face the pain, so they can be set free from it...Give each
person here the courage to face their deepest darkest secrets and hurts
so they can be set free from the guilt and shame and pain. Shine your
light in the dark places of their hearts and souls so they can sweep
them clean and be filled with your healing love and peace.

Lord, for all of those who have physical manifestations from their
stress and pain and depression and hurts and they don't realize that is
the source of their suffering,we ask in Jesus' name, that you would heal
in body, mind and spirit...Let them find healing and freedom right now.

Lord, the enemy is a liar and a destroyer and he keeps us chained in
fear and heartache...Lord, help everyone to say "I will not be afraid
any longer". Let them cling to and claim the promises in your word.
Sometimes we suffer needlessly because we do not claim what is ours, we
do not put on our armor, we do not realize that the victory is already
ours...Lord, bring healing...clean the wounds out...help people not to
be afraid of a little temporary pain that will bring a lifetime of
healed emotions and memories.

Lord, please meet each need here. They are vast and varying, but you
know each one before we even ask and you are faithful to meet them
according to your will and in your time. You are here, Lord. We feel it.
Where two or more gathered in your name, you are in our midst. Come Holy
Spirit come...we're ready for you to breathe your power, strength,
healing and comfort upon us now.
In the mighty name of Jesus we pray Amen.
God bless!!!
