A Prayer for the Soldier of God
Heavenly Father I thank for the gift of your Son and his finished works at the cross. You have gifted me Salvation and clothe me in his righteousness, by my faith in him. I give you my life and will stand for the glory of your Kingdom. I will wake each day and put on all your armor that I may do battle for the good in all things. Give me great courage, great strength, great humility, and great wisdom to carry out this duty. Send your angels to watch my back, shield and strengthen my family, for evil will surely test my defenses and seek to fill those around me with his lies. Make my actions pure and just that they will prevail for your purpose. When I walk through the shadows no arrows will pierce me as you are my shield, my refuge, and you guide my steps. When the enemy has drained my resolve I will rest in you and all my being will be renewed that I will again stand strong in your purpose. I ask this in the Authority and Power in the name of Jesus Christ as your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Amen

Prayer of Repentance
Heavenly father I come before you in reverence and thanksgiving for the abundance of your supply and for who you are. I seek your forgiveness for my transgressions, foolishness and lust for the pleasures of this world. I know through the revelation of your word that the wages of sin is death. I find this struggle in me as your servant Paul did. It is sin living in me that pulls and tears the fabric of good within me. Your law is the light that convicts me when I transgress, and your grace freely given to lift me up and away from the traps of this world. I fall before you in repentance and call upon your strength to help me stop this attack upon my mind and heart when it seeks to steal, kill and destroy my reverence for and relationship with you. This power within is the carnal nature inherited from this world, but there is a power within me that has already defeated this foe, your Holy Spirit. I will call upon him and allow him to permeate my being, guide me, and school me to defeat this sinful nature as I alone have not this power. I am able to stand upright before you again because of the gift of your Son; Jesus Christ. By his finished works at the Cross and by faith in him I am freely given life that I may have it abundantly. By the Authority and Power in the name of Jesus Christ, I choose life, and receive your Forgiveness and Grace for all my days. As your Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Amen

A Prayer for Salvation
Heavenly Father I have read your Word and by your commandments I realize I am a sinner. I see your Son and want him to be the Lord of my life. I fall before you and ask that you wash me in his blood that was given at the Cross so that all men be reconciled to you. Cover me with your Grace so that I may be forgiven by believing in your Son, Jesus Christ. This gift is freely given and I receive it with all that is me. I ask all this in the name of Jesus Christ and that you guide my life so it will be worthy of this great gift. Amen

Prayer for the New Year
Heavenly Father we thank you for the gifts of this past year, as you have guided, protected, healed, and comforted us. We celebrate the gift of your Son, Jesus Christ, and thank you for showing us your Glory in Him. The Hope, Peace, Joy, and Love brought to us through him overflows our hearts and souls. As we step into the New Year keep your watchful eye upon us, and guide us that our conduct be for the Glory of your Kingdom. Continue to provide all that is necessary for us to serve your purpose. It is our hope that we may bring many of the lost to your Son that he may bring them to you, and through your Son you will fill and overflow their lives with the abundant life into eternity. May your Glory shine through this church on the corner for all to see, see the truth, see the good, see the excellent, and see the beauty in all things. We set this petition before you in reverence and thanksgiving by the great name of Jesus Christ and look forward to serving you. As your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Amen.
Prayer for Peace
Heavenly Father I thank you for this day and the wondrous gifts you have given to your children. Teach us in the midst of this fallen world to grasp and hold on to these gifts that they may bear fruit for the Glory of your Kingdom. May those who see turmoil in their lives look instead to your Son and embrace his finished works at the cross, therefore they will be given the gift of salvation and the peace that comes only through believing in him. Peace of mind, Peace of heart, Peace of the soul, Peace from your spirit who lives in us. Grant us all this Peace in the time of the season of your Son’s birth that we may celebrate him and open our hearts to receive his gift in the Authority and Power of His great name, Jesus Christ. As your Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Amen
Prayer of Hope
Heavenly Father I thank you for your creation and my life within. I look around and see your greatness in every direction. From the smallest spec of dust, all the magnificent creatures, the rugged mountains of the Rockies, the great oceans, the sun, moon, stars and the eternity of the Heavens. The revelation of your word has implored me to look around and see you in all things. Only a fool would not recognize your hand in the creation of such perfection and excellence. I look in the mirror and see you in my minds eye as I have been fearfully and wonderfully made in your image. I and all your creation revolve in perfect harmony; day and night, the four seasons, Earth’s solar system and the galaxy in which it resides, and all the heavens into eternity. Each has it’s own place never colliding with the other through the expanse of time. Time marks the days of lifetimes and millennia for the progress of your plan. In contemplating these things it gives me hope for my lifetime and the many lifetimes of days to come. Hope for the good and the prosperity of nations. My heart is filled with love as such a great creation surely comes from love. My greatest hope is for the Salvation of man for you have made this possible through your love by sending your son, Jesus Christ, to bear the sin of man, to heal him heart, mind, body and soul. His finished works at the Cross gives the greatest gift of all; life that we may have it abundantly in relationship with you through eternity, by our believing in him. This gift should give all men hope. As we prepare to celebrate his birth fill our minds and hearts with your love and the hope your Son provides. I stand before you in reverence, thanksgiving and praise for your love, hope and Almighty Power. I declare all these things and present my petition in the Authority and Power of the name of Jesus Christ. As your will be done on earth as it is in Heaven.
Amen
Prayer of Thanksgiving
Heavenly Father, thank you for your son and his finished works at the cross, that I have been gifted salvation by believing in him, allowing me to humbly stand before you with my petitions. I will continually seek, believe, embrace and live all you have written for me that your Kingdom be glorified. I know by the revelation of your Word that this was written for me before time began, for this specific time, “Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them” . You have declared that those whom you have written for belong to you and you will never discard them. Those whom you predestined you also called, and those whom you called you also justified, and those whom you justified you also glorified. You have given my life great gifts; a loving family, solid friends, a roof over my head, food on my table, great health and healing, my needs have been filled and my barns overflow, the sweet taste of your Living Water fills my senses, and no one can imagine the mighty power of your forgiveness and the gentleness and patience of your Love I have experienced. You have sent your Holy Spirit to dwell within me, to guide me, to teach me, to discipline me, all to nurture the purpose which you have planted in me for the glory of your Kingdom. I hope that you find me worthy of your creation. I declare this in reverence of your almighty power and in thanksgiving for your grace and provision; by the Authority and Power in your son’s name, Jesus Christ. As your Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen
