Today, we pray for the mentally ill

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You our brothers and sisters who are mentally unstable. Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ name we pray that they will be delivered and saved from destruction. Let schizophrenia, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, fear, psychosis, neurosis, manic depression and all kinds of mental illness be routed from our families and communities. Let them never harm themselves or others. Let them be set free forever from all emotional bondages, forever. Amen.

Today, we pray for the weary

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You the weary ones – the ones tired of waiting for an answer to their prayers, a fulfillment of their greatest dreams and a breakthrough from the mundane. We pray that Your Holy Spirit will comfort and enrich their subconscious tonight and give them the lift and the breakthrough that they so badly need. Assure them today that all is well. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

Today, we pray for our enemies

Lord Jesus, You taught us a valuable lesson about loving those who hate us. We now pray for each person whom we have harmed and who has harmed us in any way. Sweet Jesus, let Your healing love flow. Let peace be established. May we, Your children, stop hurting each other through our thoughts, words and deeds. Bless each one of our enemies mightily today. Amen.

Today, we pray for orphans

Lord Jesus, today we pray for those who live on this earth with no one to call their own. May Your love surround them and make them feel wanted, instead of rejected. Lord, bless the old and the young who long for a family. We pray that homes will be opened to young ones who are seeking adoptive parents. May all of us truly become one Christian family – with members accountable to and for one another. Amen.

Today, we pray for those who are grieving

Lord Jesus, today we bring to You those who are grieving – those struggling with mute pain and are suffering due to irreparable loss. Jesus, only Your Holy Spirit can heal our grief – some of us are in too much agony – affected deeply by death, end of relationships, illnesses and crisis. Come into our situations and be our peace. Prompt Christians to go forward, reach out, help the weak and live up to our name and calling, to serve those who are suffering. Amen
