Prayer should be a lifestyle but;

Prayer is performed when all else fails and a feeling of HOPELESSNESS looms and envelopes man, though he egoistically constantly questions FAITH and the belief in the existence of God.

Prayer is needed NOW that satan’s master plan is beginning to make sense; persecution unto submission to worship the beast

There is a cry for HELP from an individual who feels small and bare surrounded by gargantuan edifices of woe, confusion and deep rooted worries.

Pray for clarity, understanding and strength to fight the godly battle at hand

Pray for focus on Christ alone; the author and finisher of our faith

Pray for divine boldness, unshaken faith and a voice in the wilderness of a very corrupt world

Pray for favour, blessings and God’s will

Drop your pride, prejudice and ego, drop all hindrances and stand for the most HIGH;

LET US PRAY!

1When upon life’s billows you are tempest-tossed,
When you are discouraged, thinking all is lost,
Count your many blessings, name them one by one,
And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.

Refrain:
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
Count your blessings, see what God has done!
Count your blessings, name them one by one,
*Count your many blessings, see what God has done.
[*And it will surprise you what the Lord has done.] 

2Are you ever burdened with a load of care?
Does the cross seem heavy you are called to bear?
Count your many blessings, every doubt will fly,
And you will keep singing as the days go by. 

3When you look at others with their lands and gold,
Think that Christ has promised you His wealth untold;
Count your many blessings—*money cannot buy [*wealth can never buy]
Your reward in heaven, nor your home on high.                                                            

4So, amid the conflict whether great or small,
Do not be discouraged, God is over all;
Count your many blessings, angels will attend,
Help and comfort give you to your journey’s end.

2 Chronicles 7:14- If My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

John 10:14

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of MINE.
