Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper
Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper is a global daily prayer and teaching podcast rooted in the living Word of God. It exists to bring healing, peace, and prophetic encouragement to people in every nation and every situation. Each episode invites the listener into real prayer—Spirit‑led, Scripture‑anchored, and focused on restoration of the body, mind, and spirit. This is not background devotion; it is an active call to pray, to believe, and to stand on the promises of God when life feels uncertain. Every day, short prayers are released at set times across the world so that someone, somewhere, is always being lifted in prayer. Listeners hear prayer for healing, prayer for anxiety, prayer for breakthrough, prayer for strength, and prayer for peace, all spoken with biblical clarity and prophetic conviction. Each moment is rooted in Scripture and guided by the Holy Spirit, turning verses into living declarations that realign hearts with faith and renew the mind with truth.
Alongside the daily recordings, Reverend Ben offers longer episodes that combine prophetic teaching with extended prayer. These thirty‑ to forty‑five‑minute sessions explore how to pray through Scripture, how to recognise the voice of God, and how to apply biblical principles to everyday life. They include prayer for deliverance, prayer for forgiveness, and prayer for inner healing, reminding believers that God’s power is not distant but active in the present. The tone is pastoral yet bold, inviting believers to move from listening to participation, from fear to faith, from silence to spoken prayer. Each broadcast is designed to help listeners grow in discernment, spiritual strength, and confidence in God’s promises.
Reverend Ben Cooper, a pastor, broadcaster, and communicator known for his integrity and depth, leads the ministry with genuine compassion and prophetic insight. His words carry authority shaped by decades of experience in prayer, preaching, and pastoral care. Through his voice, thousands are reminded that prayer still heals, God still speaks, and the presence of the Holy Spirit is as powerful today as ever. Listeners across more than 170 countries tune in daily through Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Buzzsprout, and iHeartRadio. The global schedule ensures connection for believers in every time zone, from morning prayers in North America to evening reflection in Asia and Africa, creating a continuous wave of intercession that never stops.
Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper is sustained entirely by listeners who share its vision of global prayer. Supporters who contribute through RBChristianRadio.net help keep the broadcast free and accessible, ensuring that every prayer can reach those who need it most. A gift of even a few pounds a month helps extend this mission and keeps the message of healing and hope flowing without interruption. The ministry’s aim is simple but urgent—to restore faith where it has weakened, to speak life where despair has settled, and to remind every listener that God is still in control.
This podcast is more than words; it is a living stream of prayer that covers the world. It speaks directly into anxiety, illness, confusion, loss, and spiritual fatigue. It proclaims healing through Christ, release through faith, and renewal through the Holy Spirit. It stands as a daily reminder that prayer is not a routine but a relationship—an ongoing conversation between the Creator and His people. Every episode is a moment to pause, to breathe, and to reconnect with the presence of God that never leaves nor fails. Daily Prayer with Reverend Ben Cooper calls believers to return to the altar of faith, to listen for the prophetic word, and to walk in the power of prayer that changes everything. Across continents and generations, it unites voices in one declaration: God still heals, God still speaks, and prayer still moves mountains.

If you've got a prayer request, please email us at info at dailyprayer.uk. That is info at dailyprayer.uk. Wherever you are across the world, the love of Jesus Christ is over your life. We're going to jump straight into prayer and we invite every one of you. Good morning, good evening, good afternoon. My name is Rover Ben Cooper. Come on, let's just jump straight in. I don't know about you, but God, you've got to hold me tonight, Lord. Lord, I feel scared, I feel vulnerable. Lord, I feel lost. Lord, fear is speaking louder, Lord, than ever before. Lord, the pots and pans in my head are rattling, the world is making a noise, and Lord, I need peace. Father, in the name of Jesus, we need to sleep. Father, we need to rest. Lord, wherever we are right now, Father, from the battlefield to the boardroom. Father, we pray that the word of God will carry us right now. And Lord Jesus, hold me close tonight when fear speaks so loud in these dark moments. Lord, I need your presence. I need your love. I need your stability. Lord, you tell us through the great book of Joshua, chapter 1, 9, have I not commanded you, be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid. Father, these scriptures just keep coming alive over the last few weeks. Lord, they seem to be so strong and so powerful. And Lord, we keep reading, we keep praying. Lord, we need to see significant change in our lives. Father, we want, dear God, the fear, the doubt, the worry to go. Lord, we watch the news, we listen to the radio. Father, we see stuff on social media. Lord, we have a heavy day today. And Lord, we pray that wherever we are, Father, at this midnight hour, Lord Jesus, hold me close. When fear starts rattling my mind, Father, Lord, I don't want that rattle in my mind. Lord, I want to be able just to rest. Lord, at this midnight hour, Father, as the globe, dear God, through this devotional time, Lord, we pray for strength when weary hearts are facing anxiety, loneliness, and emotional overload. Father, we don't want emotional overload. But Father, I don't want to walk the same rhythm. Lord, I don't want to walk the same path. I don't want to go down the same cul-de-sac as I went down, dear God, in 2025. Lord, I want to be free. Right now, Lord, as we are in 2026, Father, we need the love of God and the power of the Holy Spirit. Lord, you see every hidden fear rising at night. Lord, you see our hearts. You carry the tears. Lord, we pray, Lord, that you will carry us. Lord, some of us are tired and weary and exhausted. Jesus, hold me close tonight. When I feel afraid of the dark, Lord, when I can't sleep, I'm worried about in the morning. I'm worried about the children. I'm worried about relationship. Lord, I'm worried about life, the money, the financial strain. Lord, the hurdles of life. Father, Lord, I don't want to jump any more hurdles of life. Father, I just want to come, Lord, to you and say, Jesus, carry me at this hour. Lord Jesus, hold each and every one of us. And Father, wherever we are, from London to Zurich, from Zurich to Chicago, from Chicago, Jerusalem, Auckland, Father, at this midnight hour, at this daybreak. Lord, if we are kicking the duvet off, Lord, strengthen us. Lord, if we're pulling the duvet over, strengthen us. Whatever we are doing in life, Father, just come. Lord, hold me today, Jesus. Hold me today. Holy Spirit, lead me at work. Holy Spirit, lead me to the cross. Lord, lead me to the Word of God. Because Lord, when we feel alone, we feel abandoned, we feel forgotten. Lord, we feel unprotected. Lord, we feel that we've been catapulted out into the atmosphere of the world. And Father, we feel very vulnerable. Lord, we don't want to feel anxious. We don't want to feel scared. But today, wherever the listeners are, we pray, Lord, for spiritual breakthrough. We believe, dear God, that the Lion of Judah is in our lives. But Jesus, hold us close today. Jesus, hold us close at this afternoon. Jesus, hold us close at the midnight hour, wherever we are around the world. Father, come in your full glory, strengthen us. You tell us in the beautiful book of Psalm 23:4. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. Lord, I read it, I see it, but Lord, I need to feel it. Lord, I need to feel this, Lord. Lord, at this hour, at this early doors of the day, Lord, I need to feel this, Lord, this freedom. Come, Holy Spirit, bless us all, we pray in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. Never give up. God is with every one of us wherever we are around the world. The Spirit of the Lord is with you. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me. I will catch you on the next prayer.
