Show us Your ways, Your thoughts this morning! You do nothing without revealing it to Your servants the prophets, Father. We choose to wait on You this morning to listen and receive revelation from You. Silence our flesh, the voice of our own thoughts, the enemy, and help us to hear clearly, to listen and obey Your voice.

Valley of Decision, multitudes, multitudes in the Valley of Decision today. We choose to say, ‘yes’ to You, we’re not confused—we’re waiting, watching. We choose to keep saying ‘yes’ to You.

Trading our sorrows, receiving the joy of the Lord, confidently resting in You. You will accomplish these things. We can rest before You. You will do it. Cancel the attacks of the enemy. The enemy wants to get in and mess things up—shut the gates and keep out the wolf.

Watch over us—watch over our families here or scattered abroad. Protect Simon as he’s traveling now. Come and thwart the enemy’s plans for evil. We thank you that no weapon formed against us can prosper! Shield of faith over all that pertains to us. Put Your protective shield over all the workers of SVM2, alliances guard and keep every one of the families against disruptions, guide us when we have to figure out tricky situations, keep them at bay, allow us ample time to devote to seeking Your face, drawing near to You. Guard their families.

We pray against the little disruptions that waste precious time and energy. We ask You to guard our families, every concern, even where their next meal is coming from—Father so many must concern themselves at such a basic level, but yet You said if we seek first Your kingdom and Your righteousness, then all these things will be added to us! Do it Father and help us to prioritize seeking first Your kingdom!

Ezra 1 mentions going up to build the house of the Lord—and those gave willingly. They came to give and to help build. We call forth the willing helpers in prayer, finance and physical partnership. Cause their hearts to be right, let them be happy to do it, to give willingly with  joy!

We call forth laborers who are right in character, provide for their children, basic needs for our brothers and sisters, a special anointing upon them, big picture vision and courage and faith to take those bold steps. Holy Spirit endue them with special anointing!

Prepare leaders, going after them, preparing church leaders to hear and respond, preparing spiritual life directors, now’s the time! Preparation to take place, break up that fallow ground! Student mobilizing initiatives. Call it forth in Jesus’ Name! Increase Your power, Father!

Psalm 90:17 Establish the work of our hands!

Isa. 54 Enlarge the place of your tent, lengthen your cords strengthen yours stakes, spread abroad to the north, south, east, and west! Let that prayer room grow, let your sphere of influence grow, let your fruitfulness expand!

It’s Your work, Father, we are Your vessels! Jars of clay, transform us to do the work of Your hands, establish for us the work of our hands in You. Open a place for that prayer room!

I see a greater thing, expanding, enlarge the tent. Tent of Meeting, Holy of holies…enlarge the tent, stretch forth the curtains, right and left, pull back the curtains, deeply rooted in You, Father!

Motivations, can be wrong, identity issues, wrong motivations, presumptions. Father, cleanse hearts and minds. Make our motivations pure and holy! Lead us in You! Do that with a spirit of rest. Establish the work of our hands, Father as we align with You. Enlarge it for Your glory, for the sake of the nations. Let humility arise, marked by humility, lowliness, rest. Let us die to anxious striving! There’s just no fruitfulness in that. Let us be humble, broken, contrite in Your eyes, for Your sake.

Philippines—join with what You’re doing. National level facilitator calling forth. Oh Father!

We pray for Hong Kong, Argentina, Brazil, for student movements in each of these nations. Oh, God, call forth this generation for Your kingdom purposes!

Where are the Marys? Secret place, download revelation.

Jeremiah 3:15 shepherds after Your heart. David, a man after Your heart. We ask for that globally, new breed of pastor, shepherd after Your heart. How rare that is on the earth today! True Shepherds after Your heart, Father!

We are all extremely weak, fall short, but lead us into that place, processes in his life, his heart of intimate connection to You, love nothing but God and hate nothing but sin! Not more quantity but greater quality! 14 years Paul was in the wilderness—in the secret place.

Message Bearers willing to go years in obscurity. Willing to pay the price, not looking for fame and fortune, but for Your kingdom’s coming! Let us model this! Mighty men and women raise them up!

Expose hidden schemes of the enemy; shine Your light—expose the Truth.

 Crisis—times of crisis, divine pause. Shine Your light! Message bearers, be made ready! You’re bigger God! Shine forth Your light! Shine Spirit! Rest upon them! May they be compelled by Your love to share. Send them out! Bring peace to these delicate situations.

Look at the nations, watch and be amazed! Hab 1:5 watch & see what I will do! Write the vision and make it plain on tablets Hab. 2:2 that the herald may run with it. You do in Your timing all that You have in Your heart!! You made the disciples successful in Your time. It will certainly come, it will not delay! The earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, like the waters cover the sea!

Rita, Hong Kong, praying for her. God minister, guide, direct, open heart, open vision. Anointing pour forth!

2 Peter 2:9 If this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of judgment, while continuing their punishment.
