MONDAYEVANGELISTIC PRAYER
Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 1-3; 2 Corinthians 10
Monday, September 5

Isa. 63:7 I will mention the lovingkindnesses of the LORD, and the praises of the
LORD, according to all that the LORD hath bestowed on us, and the great goodness toward
the house of Israel, which he hath bestowed on them according to his mercies, and according to
the multitude of his lovingkindnesses.
Lord and Loving Savior:
Can I not do this, especially as I approach the fall? Are there no mercies I
experience that would let me go out this week with a testimony to __________
and __________? Even if I feel down in the dumps at the ending of summer,
can I not remember what you have done, and witness of that to them?
Lord, snap the chains of some lost soul I know! Did you not come to set
them freefree from sin and death and hell? Give me a precious milestone along
the way by letting me lead someone to Christ! I know sick people who need
restoring. I know poor ones who need supplying. I know some in dire straits who
need delivering. Help them rise up and follow the light you have already
given, and seek their souls salvation in Jesus Christ.
You have so often answered in my own time of need. Give me the words
to be a witness of Christ and a witness to his cross, and also a testimony of your
great loving-kindness! My lost relatives and friends need to know how much you
love them. Maybe if I can put on display your choice mercies from yesterday,
then they will be emboldened to trust their heart to Jesus Christ today.
Oh Lord, it may seem dark to me now, but help me turn on the lights that
will shine across your mercy. I want to glitter through the darkness by shining-out
your praises.
2 Cor. 9:15 Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.
Now help me offer it to others in Jesus stead. Amen.
A DAILY PATTERN FOR PRAYER & BIBLE READING
Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 10-12; Galatians 1
Thursday, September 8

1 Sam. 23:16 And Jonathan Sauls son arose, and went to David into the wood, and
strengthened his hand in God.

For all those times you stood by me

For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldnt speak
You were my eyes when I couldnt see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldnt reach
You gave me faith cause you believed
Im everything I am because you loved me!
Maybe I dont know that much, but I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you!
Diane Warren, 1997

TUESDAYFOCUS ON CHRISTS MIRACLES

Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 4-6; 2 Corinthians 11
Tuesday, September 6

WEDNESDAYREVIVAL PRAYING
Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 7-9; 2 Corinthians 12
Wednesday, September 7

John 5:7-8 The impotent man answered him, Sir, I have no man, when the water is
troubled, to put me into the pool: but while I am coming, another steppeth down before me. Jesus
saith unto him, Rise, take up thy bed, and walk.

Rom. 13:13-14 Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness,
not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus
Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.

Lord of Mercy, Father of Grace:

I look around and ask, Where is the impotent, paralyzed man or woman
today? Because to them I want to say in your powerful name, Rise! It is an
auspicious moment when someone realizes they can actually pray to God for
salvation and have it! Help them believe right now. I want them to trust in Jesus.
I thank you my Jesus, that even if all I can get is a crumb from under your
table, you will never take it from me. And you never cast out those who come to
you. I always have the right to pray in hope and hope in your grace.
There was a man one time. He could not move. He had to piggyback off
another persons devotion.
Matt. 9:2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed:
and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be
forgiven thee.
Oh my soul, get to Jesus! I must push for a touch of you today. For never
was there an impotent person healed who became paralyzed a second time! Your
cure can last forever, as long as I go, and sin no more (John 8:11). I thank you that
your healing is never revoked. That is what I can have this moment in Christ
complete cleansing and pardon, immediate and full restoration. Healing for
relationships. Deliverance from the withering power of sin. That is what I need
today. That is why I trust you today. No one can step down in front and cut me
off, because your Spirit is communing with my heart right now. Bring me,
through Jesus the grace I need to glorify him. For so I ask in Jesus name. Amen.

Lord of Glory, Master of Life:

Make me honest in heart so I can be honest in word and deed. I dont need
to wear a mask. I need to clearly renounce the works of darknessthe three pairs
of evils in the areas of sensuality, impurity and passion: carousing and drinking,
sleeping around and filthiness, bickering and jealousy. Even among Christians I
need to pray for deliverance from these things. I have the gospel to reveal, and
should not have sin to conceal. Do not touch my sin with a delicate hand, but
root it out. Do not let me even go near the borders of these things.
I want to be revived! Help me put-off the old garments of sin, and dress in
robes of holiness toward you by putting on the Lord Jesus Christ. He is my armor of
light. He alone is the death of sin and the life of holiness.
Eph. 1:6 To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the
beloved.
Putting on the Lord Jesus, I am covered from my nakedness. I take Jesus by
faith to be a covering for my soul. He is my suit of righteousness, concealing
every blemish and corruption of my flesh. He is merit to cover my demerit. He is
purity to cover my uncleanness. He is obedience to cover my rebellion. He is
beauty to cover my deformity. He is perfection to cover my faults. He is
acceptance to cover all my provocation. Oh, how I love Jesus! I am attractive
with the attractiveness he puts on me when he is seen, and I am hidden. Perfect
in righteousness, matchless in holiness, unrivaled in beauty, when I put him on I
have revival! Holy Spirit help me put him on today. Amen.

FRIDAY CORPORATE PRAYER MINISTRY

Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 13-15; Galatians 2
Friday, September 9

SATURDAYIN THE PSALMS

Chronological Bible Reading: Proverbs 16-18; Galatians 3
Saturday, September 10

Rom. 14:4 Who art thou that judgest another mans servant? to his own master he
standeth or falleth. Yea, he shall be holden up: for God is able to make him stand.

Psa. 17:15 As for me, I will behold thy face in righteousness: I shall be satisfied, when
I awake, with thy likeness.

O Lord Our Father:

Give us a complete conquest of self. Especially make us deaf to our own
praises, and also not too sensitive to criticism. Let us decide that to have the
approval of God and a clear conscience is enough to keep us going. And
make us content, gracious Lord! Save us from our discontent as a manifestation
of distrust in you this day. Release us from becoming a slave to change.
Those that we love, if they do not love us, may we love them none the less.
If by mistake they misjudge us, save us from hard feelings toward them. And
God grant that we might never misjudge one another.
James 5:9 Grudge not one against another, brethren, lest ye be condemned: behold, the
judge standeth before the door.
Make us like little children who do not yet know, but know we will be told
one day in the future, and so are content just to trust in the parent and believe the
things we do not understand. For love,
1 Cor. 13:7 Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all
things.
Lord, keep us humble, dependent, and yet peaceful in rejoicing.
Psa. 131:2 Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his
mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.
Yet make us zealous and active. Oh Savior, make us like yourself! We do
not want to do so much, but to be so conformed. The conforming only comes
through transforming, so work that in our midst. Because if you will make us
be right, we will do right. Sweet Spirit work among us these things. Amen.

Faithful Father:
What satisfies other men and women my age? Something that fills their
body? Something that fills their house? Something that fills their bank account?
Something that fills their children? Something that fills their heart? People of the
world have their treasure in this world. Thats why they come to me and other
Christians when they start to look higher and farther for satisfaction.
They see the satisfaction I have is twofold: I get Gods presence here and I
get Gods likeness hereafter. Hereas long as I stay in the hard but right pathI
behold the face of the Lord. But oh, the impact that has!
2 Cor. 3:18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are
changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.
Seeing it, does not end it. I am actually transformed into that which I am
looking at! I become what I behold. I sleep a while, and wake up to find myself
a mirror image of the beauties of the Lord! Whoa!
Faith sees Christ with a transforming look.
My heart receives your image into its own depths, and then the imprint of
Jesus is left on my soul, and it becomes observable to all who know me. That is
satisfaction. When I see that, I am content.
What more can I desire this fall than those two things: to see you and to be
made more like you? I believe I can have it; I do expect it; I offer you this plea
for it now. Lord, bestow it for your Sons sake. Lord, he died to impart it. Lord,
give it for your Spirits sake, who lives inside me to display it. I have to ask this,
because it is what Jesus wants. Grant it for his sake and glory! Amen.

INTERCEDE WITH GOD INSTRUCT SAINTS

PROMPT PETITIONS KICKSTART DEVOTION

INSTRUCTIONS:

Baptists tend to ridicule liturgical churches that use "prepared prayers" because
they lack spontaneity. But for many Baptists, their prayers are so predictable they are
no more spontaneous than written-out prayers. The result is we end up praying the
same things over and over.
This daily Prayer Diary will prompt you on a wide range of prayer requests you
might not normally think of, while forcing you to articulate a deeper devotion to
God. We have included a daily Bible reading schedule. This plan will take you
through the Bible chronologically in a year.
Do not read ahead and do not try to catch up. Use each day as it comes. Then
you can know that on any given day, dozens of other people are lifting their hearts in
the same mind to God. Pray what is written, but use what is prayed as a springboard
for your own relationship with God. You learn to pray by praying.
Alan

Secret prayer is the secret of prayer, the soul of prayer, the seal of prayer, the
strength of prayer. If you do not pray alone you do not pray at all. Our Lord Jesus
Christ would go nowhere till He had prayed. He would attempt nothing till He had
prayed.
Oh, says one, I live in the spirit of prayer, and therefore I do not need times
and seasons for prayer. And do you think that Christ did not live in the spirit of
prayer? Yet He had to have his special time and place to pray. Do not fall under the
injurious notion that because your spirit cries to God in prayer all day long, therefore
there must not be some season for more immediately coming into Gods presence. If
you imagine this, I am afraid that it will prove a snare to your feet. The Lord Jesus
Christ, who knew better than you do that the main thing is the spirit of prayer rather
than the act of prayer, yet Himself retired into desert places to maintain the act and
exercise of prayer. Be spiritual. Be baptized into the spirit of prayer. But do not be
deceived by the enemy, who can steal a spirit away while we dream that we only
spiritualize it. We had better preserve the very bones of prayerthe posture, the
time, placerather than let it all ooze away into an impalpable mental condition.
God keep us prayerful. He will do so if He makes us like His dear Son.
Charles H. Spurgeon, 1834-92
